Quotes from Songs

There used to be a time that I believed
The soft pouring rain was just the pouring rain, it wasn't me
But every new light that wasn't shiny and bright
We'll suspend the storms and the clouds in sight. ~ Endless Summer by Zwan

Growing up, we all have passed through a range of feelings and emotions in life. These emotions can be anything from love to hate, happy to sad, joy to regret, etc. Life has shown us so many ups and downs and at times, we feel that nothing seems to work right. There is one way many of us find to be comforting in times when nothing seems clear―through songs.

Inside my skin
There is this space
It twists and turns
It bleeds and aches
Inside my heart
There's an empty room
It's waiting for lightning
It's waiting for you.
― Absence of Fear by Jewel

How can I change your mind
Unravel the mystery
That confines us
Silence is hiding the pain
But deep in your soul
You must know
We've got to take a chance
And let our spirits flow
Love is an elusive thing
But into every heart it sings.
― Until by Cassandra Wilson

All my life
My love's been waiting for you
All my life
My heart's been waiting too
Don't you know I need you
And adore you
All my life I'll give to only you.
― All My Life by Mariah Carey

Close your eyes and bow your head,
I need a little sympathy
'Cause fear is strong
And love's for everyone who isn't me.
― Burden in My Hand by Soundgarden

I'm so lost without you.
Feeling lonely, scared & cold.
I'm so lost without you.
Tell me baby, when are you coming home?
― Love Never Dies by Roch Voisine

Am I the only one
Who sees what we've become?
I see no sense in going on
Or asking what went wrong
We sit and stare at what could be
We both just grew apart, you see
And through no fault of our own
It's our house but not a home.
― Am I the Only One by Marc Anthony

When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'd trade the world
For a good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he puts her down.
― When a Man Loves a Woman by Percy Sledge

If I had another last dance
and we met again for the first time
I would listen to your heart
I would start back at the start
there are things I'd like to say
so many things I'd like to change.
― You're Having the Time of My Life by Jets to Brazil

There's gotta be more to life
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing.
― (There's Gotta Be) More To Life by Stacie Orrico

Just be still
arms just surround like the sun
facing the life we've begun
it holds us inside
from you one look
just one look and everything is shattered
from you one word
towers burn and fall, fall, fall.
― Shattered by Remy Zero

Every time I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It goes by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay.
― Dream On by Aerosmith

And I can't breathe when you cry
But I'll be there to hold you tight.
And I would kill, I would fight
To keep you close, I keep singing the same way
I won't live if you died If I could feel you in the wind
And this is me, it's my life.
― Gone Away by Cold

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave, but don't leave me
Look around
Choose your own ground
Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.
― Breathe by Pink Floyd

I never had any time
And I never had any call
But I went out of my way just to hurt you,
The one I shouldn't hurt at all
I thought I was being cool
Yeah, I thought I was being strong
But it's always the same old story...

...You never know what you've got 'til it's gone
If I ever catch up with you
I'm gonna love you for the rest of your life
all I need is a miracle, all I need is you.
― All I Need is a Miracle by Mike + The Mechanics

So no one told you life was going to be this way
Your jobs a joke, you're broke, your love life's DOA.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year
but..

...I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too.
― I Will Be There for You by The Rembrandts

It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end.
― Friends Will be Friends by Queen

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely
Love will make it alright.
― Anytime You Need a Friend by Mariah Carey

When the night has come
And the land is gone
And the moon is the only light we'll see
I won't be afraid,no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
So darlin', darlin', stand by me
Whoa, stand by me
Oh, stand, stand by me.
― Stand By Me by Ben E. King
