Lines from songs

Heaven Can Wait ~ Meatloaf

Heaven can wait,
And a band of Angels wrapped up in my heart,
Will take me through the lonely night,
Through the cold of the day.
And I know, I know,
Heaven can wait,
And all the gods come down here just to sing for me,
And the melody's gonna make me fly,
Without pain, without fear.

Give me all of your dreams,
And let me go alone on your way.
Give me all of your prayers to sing,
And I'll turn the night into the skylight of day.
I got a taste of paradise,
I'm never gonna let it slip away.
I got a taste of paradise,
It's all I really need to make me stay
Just like a child again.

Heaven can wait.
And all I've got is time until the end of time.
I won't look back.
I won't look back.
Let the altars shine.

And I know that I've been released,
But I don't know to where,
And nobody's gonna tell me now,
And I don't really care. No, no, no.
I got a taste of paradise.
That's all I really need to make me stay.
I got a taste of paradise.
If I had it any sooner you know
You know I never would have run away from my home.

Heaven can wait.
And all I've got is time until the end of time.
I won't look back.
I won't look back.
Let the altars shine.

Heaven can wait.
Heaven can wait.
I won't look back.
I won't look back.
Let the altars shine.
Let the altars shine.
 

There you are standing strong,
I'm a leaf holding on
You believe like a child,
In this fire runnin' wild
Oh I love how you see
Right to the heart of me

You're a waterfall, washing over me
I'm a thirsty man let me drink you in
Well I am on my way,
You're a mountain top
When I reach for you, your love lifts me up
All that I want is to be
Where you are

I'm the frozen ground, you're the warm sunlight
Shining down on me, baby just in time
Well I have never been in a love like this
Oh, you move my soul every time we kiss
And I love how you heal;
I can't believe how alive I feel


~*Where You Are, Rascal Flatts*~
 
Nobody But Me ~ Blake Shelton

Don't waste your time, lookin' over your shoulder
those loves from the past ain't gettin no closer
When i look in my future, you're all i can see
so honey don't go lovin on nobody but me.

Nobody but me, gonna love you like you oughta be loved, darlin
Nobody but me, gonna cry if you ever leave.
Now you can do what you want to, but I'm askin pretty please...don't go lovin on nobody but me.

I took my time to tell you how I feel
just because I took so long, don't mean that it in't real.
I ain't got no diamond, but I'm down on my knees, honey..don't go lovin on nobody but me.

Nobody but me, gonna love you like you oughta be loved, darlin
Nobody but me, gonna cry if you ever leave.
Now you can do what you want to but I'm askin pretty please, honey...don't go lovin on nobody but me.

Nobody but me, gonna love you like you oughta be loved, darlin
Nobody but me gonna cry if you ever leave.
Now you can do what you want to, but i'm askin pretty please, honey...don't go lovin on nobody but me.

Don't go lovin on nobody..but me.
 

When I look in your eyes
I can't see why
There's no reflection of me
When I look in your heart
Let it be the start
Work your magic on me

When I look in your eye
I can't see why
It's all a mystery to me
When I ask you to look inside and tell me why
Nothing can change what will be

Baby work your magic on me
Baby work your magic on me
I'm in a state of permanent confusion
Without your love
Without your love
Baby work your magic on me

When I look in your mind
Is there a reason why
It's all an illusion to me
I was lost in the game
That only two can play
When you work your magic on me

Baby work your magic on me
Baby work your magic on me
I'm in a state of permanent confusion
Without your love
Without your love
Baby work your magic on me

What kind of love is this you're talking about
It's got no reason got no easy way out
What kind of love as got a hold of me
What kind of love
What kind of love
What kind of love
Baby work your magic on me

When I look in your eye
I can see why
There's no reflection of me
I should have known from the start
That you would steal my heart
If you work all your magic on me

Baby work your magic on me
Baby work your magic on me
I'm in a state of permanent confusion
Without your love
Without your love
I know I want to be with you tonight
Baby work your magic on me

Life Is Wonderful ~ Jason Mraz

It takes a crane to build a crane
It takes two floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no end to what I’m saying

It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes some words to make an action
It takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction

la la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la

It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to you yawn, brother
It takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other

It takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
It takes some fears to make you trust
It takes those tears to make it rust
It takes some dust to have it polished

ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life is full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is so full of
Ah la la la la la la life is so rough
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
ah la la la la la la life is full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is our love
Ah la la la la la

It takes some silence to make sound
It takes some loss before you found me
It takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to know you care
It takes a hole to make a mountain

Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life is full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life is meaningful
it is so meaningful…
it is so wonderful…
 
Well your love is supernatural
Got a hold on me like Im hypnotized
You dont have to say a word
Every time you look at me
I can see it all in your eyes

Well I know you put a spell on me
How you make me think about you all the time
I can almost hear your voice
Even though youre far away
I can feel you right by my side

I can read your mind
What you want me to do
Darlin deep in your heart
I see the truth

Now I know you got the magic touch
When you hold me now I can see the truth
All the secrets of the heart
You cant hide them any more
I can feel the power in you

I can read your mind
What you want me to do
Darlin deep in your heart
I see the truth
I can read your mind
What you want me to be
To keep our love alive, you must be willing to believe
In a love that will last
And I know you realize
I can see it in your eyes
Now our love will never die
I can read your mind

~*I Can Read Your Mind, Doobie Brothers*~
 

We've been friends for a long long time
You tell me your secrets and I'll tell you mine
She's left you all alone
And you feel like no one cares
But I have never failed you
I've always been there

You tell your story
It sounds a bit like mine
It's the same old situation
It happens every time
Can't we see it oh maybe you and me
Is what's meant to be
Do we disagree

What if I told you what if I said that I love you
How would you feel what would you think
What would we do
Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine
Or would I lose a friend or find a love that would never end
What if I said

She doesn't love you oh it's' plain to see
I can read between the lines of what you're telling me
He doesn't hold you the way a woman should be held
How long can I go on keeping these feelings to myself

What if I told you what if I said that I love you
How would you feel what would you think
What would we do
Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine
Or would I lose a friend or find a love that would never end
What if I said

Oh we've both had our share of lonliness
So whose to say that we can't have a little happiness
And if I found that in you
It would make my dreams come true
Or would you walk away
Hear what I have to say

What if I told you what if I said that I love you
How would you feel what would you think
What would we do

Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine
I've always wondered from the day we met
What if I said
What if I said
What if I said

~*What If I Said, Steve Wariner & Anita Cochran*~

 
Without You ~ Buckcherry

Talk to me tonight
Is everything alright
Help me understand you

You go out with your friends
And talk to other men
And our love life is a wasteland

And with the change and new test of faith
To help us through tomorrow
A condition of the love we made

Chorus:
Cause things wont change without you
Forfeit the lies that maimed you
Wanna dance with the lines and change things
But I can't do it without you

You told me I'm the one
And now you're out of love
In your eyes it's hard to find you

If we could take some time
And cut out all the lies
I'd find a heart more stable

And with the change and new test of faith
To help us through tomorrow
A condition of the love we made

So take it easy girl
You're falling through the night
Your Mona Lisa eyes
Will comfort me the rest of my life

Chorus
Chorus

And when love is in your life
I will never say goodbye
We stand alone tonight
Without you
Without you

And when love is in your life
I will never say goodbye
We stand alone tonight
Without you
Without you

You
You
Without you
 
She gives me love that I could never hope to have,
She tells me that she needs me,she tells me that she's glad,
And if she goes away,I'm like someone who's left out in the rain,
I need,I need her,I need her love.
She came in from the west,a summer breeze I couldn't rest,
I had to take a fast train,to be there by her side,
She made me feel so good,she made it like it should be all the time
I need,I need her,I need her love.

Just when I was thinkin' of her,she came along and made me
want her.I need her love,I need her love,I need her love.
If she goes away,I'm like someone who's left out in the rain,
I need,I need her,I need her love.
The boast that sail,the planes that fly,she is with me.
I wonder if she wonders,if this is all for real,
I couldn't stand to see her cry because of me,that would be sad.
I need,I need her,I need her love.
She tells me everything,she makes me smile,she tries to sing,
But never shares her suffering,if things are going wrong,
She makes it like a dream,if things are as they seem the
world is good.
I need her love,I need her love,I need her love.

You sat down next to me, like poetry to wine
Out window looked upon a yellow neon sign
I took your hand while you decided what to do
The only kiss, I ever miss, I shared with you
The other cities hold a memory still of a place
But, when I dream of London, I can only see your face

I want you
Or no one
No one else will do
You, or no one
No one is the only one
To fill the empty space I hold for you

You simplified me down to slogans on the wall
I took offense, but you were right about them all
My friends are telling me I shouldn't waste my time
But I can't concentrate until I make you mine
I'm drawing cards and making wishes down by the well
Who would've known I'd lose myself in that old hotel

I want you
Or no one
No one else for me
You, or no one
'Cause no one else is strong enough, strong enough
To slow me down in time to set me free
I want you
Or no one else
No one else is fine
Oh, you, or no one
No one is the only one
To fill me up until I make you mine


~*I Want You, Rachael Yamagata*~
 
I'm not always strong
And sometimes I'm even wrong
But I win when I choose
And I can't stand to lose
But I can't always be
The rock that you see
When the nights get too long
And I just can't go on

The woman in me
Needs you to be
The man in my arms
To hold tenderly
Cause I'm a woman in love
And it's you I run to
Yeah the woman in me
Needs the man in you

When the world wants too much
And it feels cold and out of touch
It's a beautiful place
When you kiss my face

The woman in me
Needs you to be
The man in my arms
To hold tenderly
Cause I'm a woman in love
And it's you I run to
Yeah the woman in me
Needs the man in you

Yeah the woman in me
Needs the man in you

I need you baby
Yeah yeah Oh baby...

I Love You ~ Lionel Richie

here I finally come to stand
my pen and paper in hand
to write to you

to tell you what I feel inside
to say to you I can't survive
without you

for all the things I’ve come to see
I now believe there's only you
only you for me

I’m standing here so lost in you
that's all my heart and soul can do
is say what's true

I love you
I love you

the first time I looked in your eyes
it was so clear to my surprise
my heart stood still

I’ve heard it time and time again
that when you fall you can't pretend
true love is real

I know with you I do belong
you are my voice my simple song
you're all I need

the joy I feel when love is blind
you're everything I need to find
my search is through

babe I love you
I love you
babe I love you
I love you

cause I know with you I do belong
you are my voice my simple song
you're all I need

and the joy I feel when love is blind
you're everything I need to find
my search is through

babe I love you
I love you
 

I don't need a lot of things,
I can get by with nothing
Of all the blessings life can bring,
I've always needed something
But I've got all I want
When it comes to loving you
You're my only reason,
You're my only truth

I need you like water
Like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy
From Heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need you
You're the hope that moves me
To courage again
You're the love that rescues me
When the cold winds rage
And it's so amazing
'Cause that's just how you are
And I can't turn back now
'Cause you've brought me too far

~*I Need You, LeAnn Rimes*~

Brand New Day - Sting
How many of you people out there
Been hurt in some kind of love affair
And how many times do you swear that you'll never love again?

How many lonely, sleepless nights
How many lies, how many fights
And why would you want to put yourself through all that again?

"Love is pain," I hear you say
Love has a cruel and bitter way
Of paying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brain

How could it be that what you need the most
Can leave you feeling just like a ghost?
You never want to feel so sad and lost again

One day you could be looking
Through an old book in rainy weather
You see a picture of her smiling at you
When you were still together
You could be walking down the street
And who should you chance to meet
But that same old smile that you've been thinking of all day

You can turn the clock to zero, honey
I'll sell the stock, we'll spend all the money
We're starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock all the way back
I wonder if she'll take me back
I'm thinking in a brand new way

Turn the clock to zero, sister
You'll never know how much I missed her
Starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock to zero, boss
The river's wide, we'll swim across
Started up a brand new day

It could happen to you - just like it happened to me
There's simply no immunity - there's no guarantee
I say love's such a force - if you find yourself in it
And sometimes no reflection is there

Baby wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute

Turn the clock to zero, honey
I'll sell the stock, we'll spend all the money
We're starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock to zero, Mac
I'm begging her to take me back
I'm thinking in a brand new way

Turn the clock to zero, boss
The river's wide, we'll swim across
Started up a brand new day

Turn the clock to zero buddy
Don't wanna be no fuddy duddy
Started up a brand new day

I'm the rhythm in your tune
I'm the sun and you're the moon
I'm a bat and you're the cave
You're the beach and I'm the wave
I’m the plow and you’re the land
You're the glove and I'm the hand
I'm the train and you're the station
I'm a flagpole to your nation - yeah

Stand up all you lovers in the world
Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl
Stand up all you lovers in the world
Starting up a brand new day

I'm the present to your future
You're the wound and I’m the suture
You're the magnet to my pole
I'm the devil in your soul
You're the pupil I'm the teacher
You're the church and I'm the preacher
You're the flower I'm the rain
You're the tunnel I'm the train

Stand up all you lovers in the world
Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl
Stand up all you lovers in the world
Starting up a brand new day
 
Just To Be With You Again ~ Lionel Richie

So I still walk on through the night and through the rain
I would give it all
Just to be with you again

It's a lonely road
For my heart is still in chains
But I live my life just to be with you again

We have walked together where angels go
And we found a place inside us that only we could know

So I still walk on through the night and through the rain
I would give it all
Just to be with you again

That's the way life goes
I go whispering the wind
But I take that for
Just to be with you again
Can I find a reason
Can I find a way
Cause the words I need to tell you
Are the words I didn't say

So I still walk on through the night and through the rain
I would give it all
Just to be with you again

I see you standing in the doorway
With that looks in your eyes
And the feeling that I feel will never die

So I still walk on through the night and through the rain
I would give it all
Just to be with you again

Well that's the way life goes
I go whispering the wind
I would give it all
Just to be with you again
It's a lonely road
For my heart is still in chains
But I live my life just to be with you again
 

Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
Oh taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing
But often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright lights turn to night
Until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me

Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
Others only read of the love, the love that I love.

See I'm all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards
More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive

Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just dream of
And if you could see me now,
Oh love, no
You and I, you and I
Not so little you and I anymore, mmm...
And with this silence brings a moral story
More importantly evolving is the glory of a boy

Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just dream of
And if you could see me now
Well I'm almost finally out of
I'm finally out of
Finally deedeedeedee
Well I'm almost finally, finally
Well I'm free, oh, I'm free

And it's okay if you have go away
Oh just remember the telephone works both ways
And if I never ever hear them ring
If nothing else I'll think the bells inside
Have finally found you someone else and that's okay
Cause I'll remember everything you sang

Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now
well I'm almost finally out of.
I'm finally out of, finally, deedeeededede
well I'm almost finally, finally, out of words.

~*You & I Both, Jason Mraz*~

 
Dark cloud is coming
Headed straight for your heart
Might get just a little bit crazy, baby
Might try to tear us apart

When the storm blows over
Only the strong love remains
If we're ever gonna see a rainbow
We have to stand a little rain

Everybody wants love to be easy
But it's never been that way
Each love starts out with blue skies
Sometimes those blue skies turn grey

When the storm blows over
Only the true love remains
If we're ever gonna see a rainbow
We have to stand a little rain

The thunder rolls
And the lightning strikes
Hold on, darling
It's gonna be alright

'Cause when the storm blows over
I swear my love will remain
If we're ever gonna see a rainbow
We have to stand a little rain

If we're ever gonna see a rainbow
We have to stand a little rain
:heart:
 
When you go
Don't ever think I'll make you try to stay
And maybe when you get back
I'll be off to find another way

When after all this time that you still owe
You're still, the good-for-nothing I don't know
So take your gloves and get out
Better get out
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading
So sick and tired of all the needless beating
But baby when they knock you
Down and out
It's where you oughta stay

And after all the blood that you still owe
Another dollar's just another blow

So fix your eyes and get up
Better get up
While you can
Whoa, whooa

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Well come on, come on

When you go
Would you have the guts to say
"I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday"

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday


I Don't Love You, My Chemical Romance


I :heart: This Track
 
Some things are lost some left behind
Some things are better left for someone else to find
Maybe in time I can finally see
I just wonder, wonder if you think about me

Uncle Kracker ~ In a Little While
 
Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand​

Swing Life Away - Rise Against​
 
Broken...

"when your'e broken, in a million little pieces, and your'e trying but you can't hold on anymore.
Every tear, falls down for a reason, Don't you stop believin in yourself, when your'e broken...."
 

Watch the sunrise
Say your goodbyes
Off we go
Some conversation
No contemplation
Hit the road

Car overheats
Jump out of my seat
On the side of the highway baby
Our road is long
Your hold is strong
Please don't ever let go Oh No


I know I don't know you
But I want you so bad
Everyone has a secret
But can they keep it
Oh No they can't

I'm driving fast now
Don't think I know how to go slow
Where you at now
I feel around
There you are

Cool these engines
Calm these jets
I ask you how hot can it get
And as you wipe off beads of sweat
Slowly you say "I'm not there yet"
