Amy Winehouse - Stronger than me - Lyrics
You should be stronger than me
You been here seven years longer than me
Don't you know you supposed to be the man?
Not pale in comparison to who you think I am
You always wanna talk it through
I don't care
I always have to comfort you
When I'm there
But that's what I need you to do
Stroke my hair
Cuz I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy
You should be stronger than me
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey
Why'd you always put me in control?
All I need is for my man to live up to his role
You always wanna talk it through
I'm O.K
I always have to comfort you
Everyday
But that's what I need you to do
Are you gay?
Cuz I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, n' you my lady boy
He said 'the respect I made you earn, thought you had so many lessons to learn'
I said 'you don't know what love is get a grip'
Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna grip your body over mine
Please tell me why you think that's a crime
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady and you my lady boy
You should be stronger than me...
You been here seven years longer than me
Don't you know you supposed to be the man?
Not pale in comparison to who you think I am
You always wanna talk it through
I don't care
I always have to comfort you
When I'm there
But that's what I need you to do
Stroke my hair
Cuz I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy
You should be stronger than me
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey
Why'd you always put me in control?
All I need is for my man to live up to his role
You always wanna talk it through
I'm O.K
I always have to comfort you
Everyday
But that's what I need you to do
Are you gay?
Cuz I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, n' you my lady boy
He said 'the respect I made you earn, thought you had so many lessons to learn'
I said 'you don't know what love is get a grip'
Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna grip your body over mine
Please tell me why you think that's a crime
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady and you my lady boy
You should be stronger than me...

Amy Winehouse - What is it about men - Lyrics
Understand once he was a family man
so surely I would never, ever go through it first hand
Emulate all the shit my mother hated
I can't help but demostrate my Freudian fate
My alibi for taking your guy
history repeats itself, it fails to die
and animal agression is my downfall
I don't care 'bout what you got I wanted all
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing
and I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing
and I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears
for behavioural patters that stick over the years
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
so surely I would never, ever go through it first hand
Emulate all the shit my mother hated
I can't help but demostrate my Freudian fate
My alibi for taking your guy
history repeats itself, it fails to die
and animal agression is my downfall
I don't care 'bout what you got I wanted all
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing
and I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing
and I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears
for behavioural patters that stick over the years
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?

Amy Winehouse - No greater love - Lyrics
There is no greater love
Than what I feel for you
No sweeter song, no heart so true
There is no greater thrill
Than what you bring to me
No sweeter song
Than what you sing, sing to me
You're the sweetest thing
I have ever known
And to think that you are mine alone
There is no greater love
In all the world, it's true
No greater love
Than what I feel for you
Than what I feel for you
No sweeter song, no heart so true
There is no greater thrill
Than what you bring to me
No sweeter song
Than what you sing, sing to me
You're the sweetest thing
I have ever known
And to think that you are mine alone
There is no greater love
In all the world, it's true
No greater love
Than what I feel for you

Amy Winehouse - Know you now - Lyrics
You're just a little boy underneath that hat
You need your nerve to hide your ego – don't come with that
You think everything is handed to you free
But it's not that easy, no
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
My girl says I'm too sensitive to ride with you
But I'm not listening to her, mm hm
Yes I'm perceptive so when I've dance with you you'll whisk your head back the way it were
As you were
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
Oh, I'm not ruling you out
I'm just in doubt as to what you say you're all about, yeah
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta show you now and them
I gotta know you now and then
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
You need your nerve to hide your ego – don't come with that
You think everything is handed to you free
But it's not that easy, no
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
My girl says I'm too sensitive to ride with you
But I'm not listening to her, mm hm
Yes I'm perceptive so when I've dance with you you'll whisk your head back the way it were
As you were
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
Oh, I'm not ruling you out
I'm just in doubt as to what you say you're all about, yeah
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta show you now and them
I gotta know you now and then
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again

Amy Winehouse - In my bed - Lyrics
In my bed is a song from Amy's first album Frank that is about when two people are having sex and one of them thinks the other one has feelings for him or her, although the person don't.
--
Wish I could say it breaks my heart
like you did in the beginning
Its not that we grew apart
a nightingale no longer singing
Its something I know you cant do
seperate sex with emotion
I sleep alone the sun comes up
your still clinging to that notion
Every thing is slowing down
river of no return
recognise my every sound
there is nothing new to learn
You'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night, in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where Im going
oh, its you again listen this isnt a reunion
so sorry if i turn my head
yours is a familliar face
but that dont make your place safe
in my bed my bed my bed
I never thought my memory
of what we had could be intruded
but I couldnt let it be
I needed it as much as you did
Now its not hard to understand
why we just speak at night
The only time I hold your hand
is to get the angle right
Everything is slowing down
river of no return
you recognise my every sound
theres nothing new to learn
You'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night in the night
Want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where im going
Oh, it's you again listen this isnt a reunion
so sorry if I turn my head
yours is a familliar face
but that dont make your place safe
in my bed, my bed, my bed.

Amy Winehouse - I heard love is blind - Lyrics
I heard love is blind is quite a controversial song from Amy's first album Frank. The song is about Amy's perspective on infidelity, something she's talked about in a lot interviews.
--
I couldn’t resist him
His eyes were like yours
His hair was exactly the shade of brown
He’s just not as tall
but I couldn’t tell
It was dark and I was lying down
You are everything
he means nothing to me
I can’t even remember his name
Why’re you so upset?
Baby, you weren’t there
and I was thinking of you when I came
What do you expect?
You left me here alone
I drank so much and needed to touch
Don’t overreact
I pretended he was you
You wouldn’t want me to be lonely
How can I put it so you understand?
I didn’t let him hold my hand
But he looked like you
I guess he looked like you
No he wasn’t you
But you can still trust me,
this ain’t infidelity
It’s not cheating
you were on my mind
Yes he looked like you
But I heard love is blind…

Amy Winehouse - Round midnigt - Lyrics
Round Midnight is a song about when Amy and Chris ended their relationship. Same theme as "Wake up alone", different guy.
--
It begins to tell,
'round midnight, 'round midnight.
I do pretty well till after sundown,
And suppertime I'm feelin' sad
But it really gets bad,
'round midnight.
Memories always start
'round midnight, 'round
Haven't got the heart to stand those memories,
So when my heart is still with you,
Yes ol' midnight knows it, too.
When a quarrel we had needs mending,
Does it mean that our love is ending.
Darlin' I need you, lately I find
You're out of my heart,
And I'm out of my mind.
So let our hearts take wings
'round midnight, 'round midnight
Let the angels sing,
for your returning.
Till our love is safe and sound.
And old midnight comes around.
Cause I'm feelin' sad,
and it really gets bad
'round midnight, 'round midnight

Amy Winehouse - Cherry - Lyrics
Cherry is a song from Amy Winehouses first album Frank. It's about a guitar she got and how much she loved it. She compares it to Chris, that she is quite mad at at the time (as always?). It's a cute, jazzy song, that Amy plays often at concerts.
Her name is Cherry, we just met
But already she knows me better than you
She understands me
After eighteen years
And you still don't see me
Like you ought to do
Maybe we could talk 'bout things
If you was made of wood and strings
While I love her every sound
I dunno how to tune you down
You're so thick and my patience thin
So I got me a new best friend
With a pickup that puts you to shame
And Cherry is her name
And when I'm lonely, Cherry's there
And she plays along while I sing out my blues
I could be crying and you don't care
You won't call me back
You're stubborn as a mule
Maybe we could talk 'bout things
If you was made of wood and strings
You might think I've gone too far
I'm talking 'bout my new guitar
Her name is Cherry, we just met
But already she knows me better than you
She understands me
After eighteen years
And you still don't see me
Like you ought to do
Maybe we could talk 'bout things
If you was made of wood and strings
While I love her every sound
I dunno how to tune you down
You're so thick and my patience thin
So I got me a new best friend
With a pickup that puts you to shame
And Cherry is her name
And when I'm lonely, Cherry's there
And she plays along while I sing out my blues
I could be crying and you don't care
You won't call me back
You're stubborn as a mule
Maybe we could talk 'bout things
If you was made of wood and strings
You might think I've gone too far
I'm talking 'bout my new guitar

Amy Winehouse - October Song - Lyrics
October Song is one of few songs on Frank that isn't about Chris. October Song is about when Amys beloved bird Ava died. It's such a great song that can't be played too many times.
--
Today my bird flew away
Gone to find her big blue jay
Starlight before she took flight
I sung a lullaby of bird land everynight
Sung for my Ava everynight
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet soun
And Ava flies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
To shooting pains up in my head
Lovebird, my beautiful bird
Spoken 'til one day she couldn't be heard
She just stopped singing
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet soun
And Ava flies in paradise
--
Today my bird flew away
Gone to find her big blue jay
Starlight before she took flight
I sung a lullaby of bird land everynight
Sung for my Ava everynight
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet soun
And Ava flies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
To shooting pains up in my head
Lovebird, my beautiful bird
Spoken 'til one day she couldn't be heard
She just stopped singing
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet soun
And Ava flies in paradise

Amy Winehouse - Mr Magic - Lyrics
This song is about Amy being in love, probably about Chris. Although, as Amy likes making refernces to her infuences and Amy was into Hip Hop at the time, it can be about the rapper Mr Magic.
--
Every day i see you
My hands were made for you
And you always give me stress me free point of view
Pick you up after school
Chorus:´
Mr. Magic Take a token
Mr. Magic Of my love
Mr. Magic I see you through the smoke
Without you, a misery
Blue with a migraine
All the songs sound better when you're next to me
Hey, cause they come naturally
Chorus
Laying on my bed
I reach over for you
And you so fresh you even make the standards bloom
But its just to you through
Chorus
Mr. Magic
Mr. Magic
Mr. Magic
Waiting for the smoke to clear.
I'm waiting for the smoke to clear
