Holly Cole has an incredible voice. I have the song in MP3 format if you'd like to listen to it.

Make It Go Away Lyrics
Holly Cole

Make it go away or make it better
Isn't that what love's supposed to do
Make it go away or make it better
Cause I would do either one for you

This is not the way you should see me
This is not the face I recognize
Could I lay my head down here for a moment
Would you sing to me like I'm your child
Cause I'm not angry I'm not crying
I'm just in over my head
You could be the angel that stayed on my shoulder
When all of the other angels left

Make it go away or make it better
Cause I am waking
This more then one should have to take
If you do this for me then I will promise
I'll make it go away for you someday

There are reasons silver linings
There are lessons but I don't care
Cause I just need a hand that I can hold onto
When it's darker then death out there

I'm so cold
And so far away from my home
But tonight you're
You're where I belong
You're everything right
When I'm everything wrong

Make it go away or make it better
Isn't that what love's supposed to do
Make it go away or make it better
Cause I would do either one for you
(repeat)

I would like the MP3 of "Make it go away" - but being technophobe have no idea how to do this!

Any tips?

I first heard the song about a year ago, and it helped me through a difficult time, but sadly the angel who did stay on my shoulder has recently left...
If you like this song, read Shakespeare's Sonnet 29.

Thanks

This is a great song. I love both versions that Holly sings - from Dark Dear Heart and from Romantically Helpless. The second is so lush, almost forget how sad and wistful the song is.

What does anyone think of Holly's version of Joni Mitchell's "The River"? It's sort of an anti-christmas song for me. And yeah I love that one as well.

thanks
