Hi Janine! You can find these in You Tube:

The Rasmus - In The Shadows

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJLVl96sxr4&feature=fvst

"I�ve been watching
I �ve been waiting
In the shadows
For my time
I�ve been searching
I�ve been living
For tomorrows
All my life ..."

Yael Naim - Too Long http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDy0HNrK0vo&feature=related

"And I �ve been waiting on my own
I �ve been waiting for too long
Not strong enough to be with you
And I �ve been making up my world
I �ve been painting it with gold
Not strong enough to see you"

My Brave Face - Paul McCartney http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h85OGkCaKIg

"I �ve Been Living In Style
Unaccustomed As I Am
To The Luxury Life.
I �ve Been Hitting The Town
And It Didn �t Hit Back.
I �ve Been Doing The Rounds
Unaccustomed As I Am
To The Time On My Hands..."

One Of These Nights - The Eagles http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94bL91pazq4

"Between the dark and the light...
I �ve been searching for the daughter
Of the devil himself
I �ve been searching for an angel in white
I �ve been waiting for a woman who �s a little
Of both...
In between the wrong and the right"

Miss You - The Rolling Stones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNMxHGheWH0

"I �ve been holding out so long
I �ve been sleeping all alone
Lord I miss you
I �ve been hanging on the phone
I �ve been sleeping all alone..."

In The Air Tonight - Phil Collins http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=manxPVTLth8

"I �ve been waiting for this moment, all my life,
Oh Lord..."

Waiting For A Girl Like You - Foreigner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXjJCbA5qc4

Hope it helps.

Wish you all a wonderful weekend.
