Ticket to the World

Here’s my new song fresh out the production oven: Ticket to the World. 

 

It’s been 12 days since you felt your heart break baby

It’s been too long, now I gotta step in

You’re no prison mate, no. Gonna break you out I said it

I’ll be your ticket to escape.

 

We can go anywhere you want just say the word we can go,

Get you outta here,

Any where at all no need for you to stay

I’ll be your ticket to the world, c’mon let’s go

I swear we’ll leave today.

A million other places we could be,

When you’re here with me.

 

Ohhh oh oh oh (x4)

 

It’s been one week, since you came away with me

New sights, new scene gonna take it all in

Spend time, in the moon light,

Slip away to take the moment.

Let’s live a life with no regret

 

We can go anywhere you want just say the word we can go,

Get you outta here,

Any where at all no need for you to stay

I’ll be your ticket to the world, c’mon let’s go

I swear we’ll leave today.

A million other places we could be,

When you’re here with me.

 

Ohhh oh oh oh (x4)

 

I can be your ticket to the world oh oh

Take my hand,

Take my hand

I can be your ticket to the world oh oh

Take my hand

Cause I can take you anywhere, take you anywhere, take you anywhere

 

We can go anywhere you want just say the word we can go,

Get you outta here,

Any where at all no need for you to stay

I’ll be your ticket to the world, c’mon let’s go

I swear we’ll leave today.

A million other places we could be,

When you’re here with me.

 

Ohhh oh oh oh (x4)

Lyrics below:

My plane landed long ago

I’m trying to get you on the phone

and tell you that I am home dear

 

I left without a single word

I knew that you would be hurt

I just needed to get out of here

I don’t know why I left

I wondered if I was wrong

but something brought me home

 

The City of Angels

This city of mine

is calling my name

but I don’t know why

 

The City of Angels

My city at heart

is pulling me closer to where you are

 

I’m walking up to your door

I’m trying to think of something more

to help explain why I’m standing here

 

I never thought I’d see the day

I’ve come to tell you face to face

why it is that I disappeared.

 

I don’t know why I left

I wondered if I was wrong

but something brought me home

 

The City of Angels

This city of mine

is calling my name

but I don’t know why

 

The City of Angels

My city at heart

is pulling me closer to where you are

 

Traveled a million miles

might still be here alone

in this moment

can I finally say I’m home?

(Yeah, Yeah)

(Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)

 

The City of Angels

This city of mine

is calling my name

but I don’t know why

 

The City of Angels

My city at heart

is pulling me closer

My plane landed long ago

I’m trying to get you on the phone

and tell you that I am home dear

 

 

“Hollywood Dream”

Weeks spent drawing (by hand!) Pictionary-style animations paid off. Hope you all love the “Hollywood Dream” video as much as I do. Check it out.

Lyrics below:

Now all I ever want is you
and now you are my new
Hollywood Dream

Came for the Grammy speech
Be on the silver screen
didn’t think I’d get to know you, know you
and then you took my surprise in the middle of the night
You got me shaking up my vibe
yeah you’re shaking up my vibe

I was star struck by you
and there’s nothing I can do

Am I out of my mind
Am I wasting my time
Is this what I want to do
From the cold to the fire
You changed my desire
Now all I ever want is you
and now you are my new
Hollywood Dream

Feeling your energy is making me lose control
you give me everything that I have never known
finally I have a dream that I can hold

Now I made up my mind
I’m not wasting my time
this is what i want to do
from the cold to the fire you changed my desire
now all I ever want is you.

I said all I ever want is you.

Am I out of my mind
Am I wasting my time
Is this what I want to do
From the cold to the fire
You changed my desire
Now all I ever want is you

Am I out of my mind
Am I wasting my time
Is this what I want to do
From the cold to the fire
You changed my desire
Now all I ever want is you

and now you are my new
Hollywood Dream

and now you are my new
Hollywood Dream

photo session!

Just earlier this week, I had a photo session. Michael Roud, my photographer, has a great eye, and has worked with other stars e.g. Jesse McCartney.

For fun, here are some of the images. [Emphasis on SOME].

Which one do you like best? Help me out with a vote 🙂

Singing on the Beach!

The best part about having a job you love. When you are on vacation, you can still want to work! That’s exactly what happens to me on the beach. Nothing seems more inspiring to me than watching the stars at night, or hearing the waves consistently wash over the beach.

The good: Relaxing with my guitar

The bad : You get more attention than you want.

The ugly: Sand gets into your guitar case!!

Jamming on a private stretch of beach

Cleaning a sandy guitar case is not the most fun.

That’s it for now.. but stay tuned. I’m leaving the country in less than a week, so I’ll have some international updates in no time.

Sami Khan: “Spin Your Words” Lyrics Music Video

Atlanta 2011!

So it’s been 7 months since my last visit to Atlanta… And I have to say, it couldn’t be under more different circumstances. Our last visit, the guys and I played in 33 degree weather in Centennial Olympic Park. This time, we arranged a great show at a community center on Peachtree. The show itself was a blast.

Sami Khan performs in Atlanta

Of course, as usual, we had a run- in with the police. On our California tour, we got pulled over and ticketed once. In Atlanta, we got pulled over… twice. But not to fear, I used my charm to get out of every scenario, ticket free!

Ride to California

If pictures are worth a thousand words… then a video should say it all. California was ridiculous, in great ways, and bad ways. But my bloopers reel will tell the best story:

‘100 Years’ Lyrics

As I Stand Here Right Now

And I take that look around

I finally realize

That I’m alone

But do you even see?

Do you even care at all?

We won’t be together

When time takes us all along

What will you remember?

What will you take?

How will we be?

When we leave this place?

Let us leave

Let it be

I won’t forget you ever

I won’t forget you ever

We’re here right now and I swear

I won’t forget you in 100 years

We’re in our last moments now

And I’m holding my ground

After all I’ve had

I can’t let this go

And though we’ve made our choice

Can you see any other way?

If I had the voice

I would have asked you to stay

What will you remember?

What will you take?

How will we be?

When we leave this place?

Let us leave

Let it be

I won’t forget you ever

I won’t forget you ever

We’re here right now and I swear

I won’t forget you in 100 years
