Members Ryan Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 As some of you know, SoapQueen (Jen) and I get into these little "lyric wars" on the CL from time to time. I got the idea to create a thread where people can share their favorite lyrics to songs that they like. It can either be small parts or the entire song.

Members Ryan Posted December 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 "I Surrender" by Celine Dion There’s so much life I’ve left to live And this fire’s burning still When I watch you look at me I think I could find the will To stand for every dream And forsake the solid ground And give up this fear within Of what would happen if they ever knew I’m in love with you ’cause I’d surrender everything To feel the chance to live again I reach to you I know you can feel it to We’d make it through A thousand dreams I still believe I’d make you give them all to me I’d hold you in my arms and never let go I surrender I know I can’t survive Another night away from you You’re the reason I go on And now I need to live the truth Right now, there’s no better time From this fear I will break free And I’ll live again with love And no the they can’t take that away from me And they will see... ’cause I’d surrender everything To feel the chance to live again I reach to you I know you can feel it too We’d make it through A thousand dreams I still believe I’d make you give them all to me I’d hold you in my arms and never let go I surrender Every night’s getting longer And this fire is getting stronger, babe I’ll swallow my pride and I’ll be alive Did you hear my call I surrender all ’cause I’d surrender everything To feel the chance to live again I reach to you I know you can feel it too We’d make it through A thousand dreams I still believe I’d make you give them all to me I’d hold you in my arms and never let go I surrender Right here, right now I give my life to live again I’ll break free, take me My everything I surrender all to you Right here, right now I give my life to live again I break free, take me My everything I surrender all to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapQueen89 Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 Silent Lucidity by Queensryche Hush now, don't you cry Wipe away the teardrop from your eye You're lying safe in bed It was all a bad dream Spinning in your head Your mind tricked you to feel the pain Of someone close to you leaving the game of life So here it is, another chance Wide awake you face the day Your dream is over... or has it just begun? There's a place I like to hide A doorway that I run through in the night Relax child, you were there But only didn't realize and you were scared It's a place where you will learn To face your fears, retrace the years And ride the whims of your mind Commanding in another world Suddenly you hear and see This magic new dimension I- will be watching over you I- am gonna help you see it through I- will protect you in the night I- am smiling next to you, in Silent Lucidity -spoken during solo- [Visualize your dream] [Record it in the present tense] [Put it into a permanent form] [if you persist in your efforts] [You can achieve dream control] [Dream control] [How's that then, better?] [Dream control] [Dream control] [Dream control] [Dream control] [Help me] If you open your mind for me You won't rely on open eyes to see The walls you built within Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin Living twice at once you learn You're safe from pain in the dream domain A soul set free to fly A round trip journey in your head Master of illusion, can you realize Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but... I- will be watching over you I- am gonna help to see it through I- will protect you in the night I- am smiling next to you.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 What's goin' on, Jenny girl! Long time, no talk! The song I'm listening to right now is Tim McGraw's "Just To See You Smile," and it has a lyric that makes me swoon nearly everytime I hear it. It's the last two lines of this verse... When you said time was all you really needed I walked away and let you have your space Cuz leaving didn’t hurt me near as badly As the tears I saw rolling down your face And yesterday I knew just what you wanted When you came walking up to me with him So I told you that I was happy for you And given the chance I’d lie again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapQueen89 Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 And probably the most greatest song EVER Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it makes me wonder There's a feeling I get when I look to the west And my spirit is crying for leaving In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those who stand looking Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, really makes me wonder And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason And a new day will dawn for those who stand long And the forest will echo with laughter *** If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now, It's just a spring clean for the May Queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run There's still time to change the road you're on Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, Ooh, it makes me wonder Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know The piper's calling you to join him Dear lady, can't you hear the wind blow, and did you know Your stairway lies on the whispering wind *** And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last When all is one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll. And she's buying the stairway to heaven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Posted December 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 There's this song that I'm totally obsessed with, by this guy named Shayne Ward (look him up). There are two parts of this song that I love the most. 1) is the chorus 2) the bridge Chorus You leave me breathless You're everything good in my life You leave me breathless I still can't believe that you're mine You just walked out of one of my dreams So beautiful you're leaving me Breathless Bridge You must have been sent from heaven to earth to change me You're like an angel The thing that I feel is stronger than love believe me You're something special I only hope that I'll one day deserve what you've given me But all I can do is try Every day of my life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapQueen89 Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 The One by Gary Allan No rush though I need your touch I won't rush your heart Until you feel on solid ground Until your strength is found, girl I'll fill those canyons in your soul Like a river lead you home And I'll walk a step behind In the shadows so you shine Just ask it will be done And I WILL prove my love Until you're sure that I'm "the one" Somebody else was here before He treated you unkind And broken wings need time to heal Before a heart can fly, girl I'll fill those canyons in your soul Like a river lead you home And I'll walk a step behind In the shadows so you shine Just ask it will be done And I will prove my love Until you're sure that I'm "the one" Trust in me and you'll find a heart so true All I want to do is give the best of me to you And stand beside you Just ask it will be done And I WILL prove my love Until you're sure that I'm "the one" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted December 14, 2007 Administrator Share Posted December 14, 2007 If you've got love in your sights Watch out, love bites When you make love, do you look in the mirror? Who do you think of, does he look like me? Do you tell lies and say that it's forever? Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see? Ooh babe ooh yeah When you're alone, do you let go? Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show? Ooh c'mon I don't wanna touch you too much baby 'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy I know you think that love is the way you make it So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it No! Love bites, love bleeds It's bringin' me to my knees Love lives, love dies It's no surprise Love begs, love pleads It's what I need When I'm with you are you somewhere else? Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself? When you wake up will you walk out? It can't be love if you throw it about Ooh babe I don't wanna touch you too much baby 'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy [Repeat Chorus] [guitar solo] Ooh yeah [Repeat Bridge] Love bites, love bleeds It's bringin' me to my knees Love lives, love dies [Repeat Chorus] If you've got love in your sights Watch out, love bites Yes it does It will be hell "Love Bites" - Def Leppard I love this song! I just discovered these guys last month! LOL If anyone has any recommendations on any more 80's bands like them, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted December 14, 2007 Administrator Share Posted December 14, 2007 I love Bon Jovi. I've heard of Van Halen, but don't know any of their songs (well I might have heard some of their songs but didn't know it was them LOL). The rest I never heard of, so I'll definitely check them out. Thanks Soapy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapQueen89 Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 Anytime Toupsy! I was a huge fan of the big hair bands in the mid to late 80s! Yes I was a metal head for a few years. LOL! Some of those bands are still around and making records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
