H/Y songs

I'm going to have to make a compliation CD of all these wonderful H/Y songs! I really like reading this thread - it's almost like poetry at times. Heartbreaking, poignant, inspirational - just like the H/Y relationship.
 
Sounds like a good idea, Luce :D

"First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"
Robert Flack

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command.

And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
It would last till the end of time my love

The first time ever I saw your face, your face,
your face, your face
 
Brilliant idea, Luce.


Valentine - Martina Mcbride


If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart until the end of time
You're all I need, my love, My Valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You've opened my eyes
And showed me how to love unselfishly

I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
But in my dreams I couldn't love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time...
You're all I need, my love, My Valentine

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart until the end of time
'cause all I need is you, My Valentine
You're all I need, my love, My Valentine....
 
I'll post the lyrics later but how about "Never A Day Goes By" which is sung by Wood? Or..."Never Tear Us Apart" by INXS?
 
"The Reason" - Hoobastank


I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you...
 
Yeah, ain't it just? When this song started taking over the airwaves, it got so I would switch stations whenever I would hear the opening chords. :eek: But now that it's settled in the background, it's starting to appeal to the musical senses again. :)
 
Beautiful song Tally. Another one to add to the collection for sure. My iTunes music library has never seen so much activity! :D
 
Kenny Chesney--Me and You

Ordinary? No! I really don't think so,
Not a love this true.
Common destiny, we were meant to be, me and you.
Like a perfect scene from a movie screen,
We're a dream come true.
Suited perfectly, for eternity, me and you.
CHORUS:
Everyday, well I need you even more,
And the nighttime too.
There's no way, I could ever let you go.
Even if I wanted to.
Everyday I live, (I) try my best to give,
All I have to you.
Thank the stars above, that we share this love, me and you
CHORUS
Ordinary? No! I really don't think so,
Just a precious few.
Ever make it last, are as lucky as
me and you.
 
One of my favorite songs, and reminds me SOO much of H/Y!!

Josh Groban
"You're Still You"

Through the darkness
I can see your light
And you will always shine
And I can feel your heart in mine
Your face I've memorized
I idolize just you

I look up to
Everything you are
In my eyes you do no wrong
I've loved you for so long
And after all is said and done
You're still you
After all
You're still you

You walk past me
I can feel your pain
Time changes everything
One truth always stays the same
You're still you
After all
You're still you

I look up to
Everything you are
In my eyes you do no wrong
And I believe in you
Although you never asked me to
I will remember you
And what life put you through

And in this cruel and lonely world
I found one love
You're still you
After all
You're still you
 
That sounds like a lovely song Sher. Maybe I should sample some Josh Groban. I've not heard anything by him so far. :eek: Well, maybe I have, but haven't realized it was him! ;)
 
Incomplete - Backstreet Boys


Empty spaces fill me up with holes
Distant faces with no place left to go
Without you within me I can’t find no rest
Where I’m going is anybody’s guess

I’ve tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is incomplete

Voices tell me I should carry on
But I am swimming in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby
It’s written on your face
You still wonder if we made a big mistake

I’ve tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is incomplete

I don’t mean to drag it on, but I can’t seem to let you go
I don’t wanna make you face this world alone
I wanna let you go (alone)

I’ve tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is incomplete.....
 
Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own by U2

Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I... that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need... I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can you hear me when I Sing,
you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me

Where are we now?
I've got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own..

You Don't You Won't by Gilman Billy
(hahaha i love this song..)

You don't, you won't
No way I say
You didn't, you doesn't
You isn't, you wasn't
You wouldn't, you couldn't
You oughn't, you shouldn't
Love nobody but me

You're mine, not his
You are, you is
I mean it, I seen it
I did it, I done it
I do, you knew
You can't, you shan't
Love nobody but me

That's all, that's it
I ain't jealous of the fellas
That you hang around with
Don't pay no mind
And I'm telling you one more time

You don't, you won't
No way I say
You didn't, you doesn't
You isn't, you wasn't
You wouldn't, you couldn't
You oughn't, you shouldn't
Love nobody but me

That's all, that's right
I ain't waitin', ain't fakin'
No maybes no mights
My heart don't lie
And I'm telling you one more time

You don't, you won't
No way I say
You didn't, you doesn't
You isn't, you wasn't
You wouldn't, you couldn't
You oughn't, you shouldn't
Love nobody but me

You're mine, not his
You are, you is
I mean it, I seen it
I did it, I done it
I do, you know
You can't, you shan't
Love nobody but me
Love nobody but me

You don't, no way
You didn't, you doesn't
You isn't, you wasn't
You couldn't, you wouldn't
Love nobody but me

You're mine, you are
I mean, I seen it
I did it, I done it
You knew you shouldn't
Love nobody but me
Love nobody but me
Love nobody but me !!!
 
That sounds like a lovely song Sher. Maybe I should sample some Josh Groban. I've not heard anything by him so far. :eek: Well, maybe I have, but haven't realized it was him! ;)

You'll love him if you ever do get to hear him! What a voice :eek:

Okay another song that sorta reminds me of these two:



"We belong together"--Mariah Carey


(Ooh, ooh, sweet love, yeah)

I didn't mean it
When I said I didn't love you, so
I should have held on tight
I never shoulda let you go
I didn't know nothing
I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I could not fathom that I would ever
Be without your love
Never imagined I'd be
Sitting here beside myself
Cause I didn't know you
Cause I didn't know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt

The feeling that I'm feeling
Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
Cause I don't have a choice
Oh, what I wouldn't give
To have you lying by my side
Right here, cause baby
(We belong together)

[chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together

Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together

I can't sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Saying to me
"If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute
This is too deep (too deep)
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial
Trying to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
"I only think of you"
And it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together
But I'm falling apart

I'm feeling all out of my element
I'm throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out
Where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
It ain't even half of what
I'm feeling inside
I need you
Need you back in my life, baby

[chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together

Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together, baby

[chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
Cause we belong together

Who am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong together
