Perfection.
(via smashcaptures)
They thought they could try to dispose of me.
They tried to make me small.
I suffered each indignity but now rise above it all.
Yes, the price that I paid was all I had
But at last I found release.
The past can rest in peace.
And if something good can come from bad,
Ah, if you see someone’s hurt
And in need of a hand, don’t forget me.
Or hear a melody cryin’ from some baby grand, don’t forget me.
When you sing happy birthday to someone you love
Or see diamonds you wish were all free,
Please say that you won’t, I pray that you don’t forget me.
But forget every man who I ever met
‘Cause they only lived to control.
For a kiss, they’d pay a thousand
Yet they paid 50 cents for my soul.
They took their piece -
The price of fame -
That no one can repay.
Ah, but they didn’t buy me when they bought my name
And that is why I pray…
Ah, if you see someone’s hurt
And in need of a hand, don’t forget me.
Or hear a melody cryin’ from some baby grand, don’t forget me.
When you sing happy birthday to someone you love
Or see diamonds you wish were all free,
Please say that you won’t, I pray that you don’t forget me.
There are some in this world who have strength of their own, Never broken or need of repair.
But there are some born to shine who can’t do it alone So protect them and take special care.
Take care And don’t forget me. Please take care And don’t forget me.
When you look to the heavens with someone you love
And a light’s shining bright from afar
Hope you see my face there
And then offer a prayer
And please let me be, let me be that star!

My mother bought it secondhand from a silent movie star
It was out of tune but still I learned to play
And with each note we both would smile forgetting who we are
And all the pain would simply fly away
Something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound
Even if it doesn’t have a place to live
Oh, the words were left unspoken when my momma came around
But that Secondhand White Baby Grand still had something beautiful to give
Through missing keys and broken strings the music was our own
Until the day we said our last goodbyes
The baby grand was sent away, a child all alone, to pray somebody else would realize
That something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound
Even if it doesn’t have a place to live
Oh. the words are still unspoken now that momma’s not around
But that Secondhand White Baby Grand still has something beautiful to give
For many years the music had to roam
Until we found a way to find a home.
So now I wake up every day and see her standing there.
Just waiting for a partner to compose
And I wish my mother still could hear
That sound beyond compare
I’ll play her song till everybody knows.
That something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound
Don’t we all deserve a family room to live
Oh. the words can’t stay unspoken until everyone has found
That Secondhand White Baby Grand that still has something beautiful to give.
I still have something beautiful to give.

Never Give All The Heart (Smash) - Katharine McPhee
As a girl, I lived in a million homes
So I always would keep to myself
And my lessons were learned
From the stories and poems
I would steal from a library shelf
Yes, the books like the Roots
Weren’t mine to keep
But the words weren’t left behind
And I think of them all and I can’t sleep
And a poet who read my mind
As the wise men once wrote
Never give all the heart
Well, it’s easy to see
He was writing for me
I just wish I could play that part
Yes, he scribbled that love isn’t worth thinking of
That is fades out from kiss to kiss
If I just learned those lines
Well, just think of the misery I’d miss
As the Irish men said
Don’t put your heart up to play
When he warned of the cost
And the heart that he lost
Mister Yeats really paved the way
For the men that I’ve known
Who have clearly shown
They’ve reading him from the start
‘Cause when it comes to me
Well, their kisses come free
But they never give all the heart
When he warned of the cost
And the heart that he lost
Mister Yeats really paved the way
For the men that I’ve known
Well, they’ve clearly shown
They been reading him from the start
‘Cause each time that I fall
They never give all the heart
Neal Bledsoe would play the perfect Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey. I saw him on Smash. He is on a couple of episodes and when I first read the books he came to mind as the ideal Christian Grey. If you see the episodes he is in on Smash you would see that he gives these “dark” looks that make you squirm! He also has these adorable looks, which is perfect for Christian Grey! This man can clearly portray our Fifty Shades. And come on, he is gorgeous :’) <3
