H/Y songs

Bless the Broken Road
Rascal Flatts


I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I’m just rollin’ home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you
 
Beautiful--Amy Grant & Vince Gill

I'm looking for a way to feel you hold me

Feel your heartbeat just one more time

Reaching back, trying to touch the moment

Each precious minute that you were mine



How do you prepare

When you love someone this way

To let them go a little more each day?



(Chorus 1:)

The stars we put in place

The dreams we didn't waste

The sorrows we embraced

The world belonged to you and me

The oceans that we crossed

The innocence we lost

The hurting at the end

I'd go there again

'Cause it was beautiful

It was beautiful



Some days, missing you is overwhelming
When it hits me you're not coming back

And in my darkest hours, I have wondered

Was it worth it for the time we had?



My thoughts get kind of scattered

But one thing I know is true

I blessed the day that I found you



(Repeat chorus 1)



(Chorus 2:)

The rules we stepped aside

The fear that we defied

The thrill of the ride

The fire in our hearts that burned

The oceans that we crossed

The innocence we lost

The hurting at the end

I'd go there again

'Cause it was beautiful

It was beautiful
 
That's a beaut! Vince Gill is something else. :)


"Shape of My Heart" - Backstreet Boys


Please try to forgive me
Stay here, don't put out the glow
Hold me now, don't bother
If every minute it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man that I've become

{Chorus}:
Lookin' back on the things I've done
I was trying to be someone
Play my part and kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Sadness is beautiful
Loneliness is tragical
So help me, I can't win this war, oh no
Touch me now, don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become

{Chorus}

I'm here with my confession
Got nothing to hide no more
I don't know where to start
But to show you the shape of my heart

I'm looking back on things I've done
I never wanna play the same old part
Keep you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

{Chorus 2x}

Show you the shape of my heart ....
 
Yeah, Vince has always had these wonderful songs that remind me so much of H/Y.

Wow, I didn't realize how many Backstreet Boys songs really fit!

Another country song:

Holy Water--Big and Rich


Somewhere there's a stolen halo
I use to watch her wear it well
Everything would shine wherever she would go
But looking at her now you'd never tell

Someone ran away with her innocence
A memory she can't get out of her head
I can only imagine what she's feeling
When she's praying
Kneeling at the edge of her bed

And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

She wants someone to call her angel
Someone to put the light back in her eyes
She's looking through the faces
The unfamiliar places
She needs someone to hear her when she crys

And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

She just needs a little help
To wash away the pain she's felt
She wants to feel the healing hands
Of someone who understands

And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me
And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

"Something In The Way She Moves" - James Taylor


There's something in the way she moves,
Or looks my way, or calls my name,
That seems to leave this troubled world behind.

If I'm feeling down and blue,
Or troubled by some foolish game,
She always seems to make me change my mind.

{Chorus}:
And I feel fine anytime she's around me now,
She's around me now
Almost all the time.
And if I'm well you can tell that she's been with me now,
And she's been with me now
Quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,
And I find myself careening
Into places where I should not let me go.

She has the power to go where no one else can find me,
Yes, and to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know.
Well I said I just got to know that:

It isn't what she's got to say
Or how she thinks or where she's been.
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound.
I like to hear them best that way -
It doesn't much matter what they mean,
Well, she says them mostly just to calm me down.

{Chorus}:
And I feel fine anytime she's around me now,
She's around me now
Almost all the time.
If I'm well you can tell that she's been with me now,
And she's been with me now
Quite a long,
Long
Time -
Yes, and I feel fine....
 
Just had to post this. Just love Clay :D



"This is the night"--Clay Aiken

When the world was in upside down
I could take all the time I had
But I'm not gonna wait
When a moment can vanish so fast
Cause every kiss is a kiss you can never get back


Lift me up in your arms
If you told me that's where heaven is
(Well, you'd be right)
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night


When the answer to all my dreams
Is as close as a touch away
Why am I here holding back what I'm trying to say


Lift me up in your arms
If you told me that is where heaven is
(Well, you'd be right)
Hold me close to your heart
I will go with you to the end of the Earth
(And we'll fly)
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night


This is the night where we capture forever
And all out tomorrows begin
After tonight we will never be lonely again


Lift me up in your arms
If you told me that is where heaven is
(Well, you'd be right)
Hold me close to your heart
I would go with you to the end of the Earth
(And we'll fly)
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night
 
I haven't looked in here for a few days. Shame on me! Some more beautiful songs to add to 'The Ultimate H/Y Collection'! Thanks one and all. :)
 
Good to have you back in this thread, Luce :)

"BACK HERE"--BBMak


Baby set me free
from this misery
I can't take it no more
since you ran away
nothings been the same
don't know what I'm livin for
Here I am
so alone
and there's nothing in this world I can do

Chorus:
Until you're back here baby
miss you want you need you so
until you're back here baby
there's a feeling inside I want you to know
you are the one and I can't...let you go

So I told you lies
even made you cry
baby I was so wrong
girl, I promise you
now my love is true
this is where my heart belongs

Repeat Chorus:

And i wonder....
are you thinking of me cause I'm thinking of you
and i wonder....
are you ever coming back in my life

Repeat Chorus:

Until you're back here baby (til your back here baby)
til you're back here baby (til you're back, you're back)
until you're back here baby (til you're back here baby)
there's a feeling inside
I want you to know
you are the one and I can't

Until you're back here baby(til you're back here baby)
til you're back here baby(til you're back, you're back)
until you're back here baby(til you're back here baby)
til you're back here baby(til you're back, you're back)
until you're back here baby(til you're back here baby)
 
Ah, yes, Clay. :)

"Rise" - Gabrielle

I know that it's over
But I can't believe we're through
They say that time is a healer
And I'm better without you
It's gonna take time I know
But I'll get over you

Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Caught up in my thinking, Yeah
Like a prisoner in my mind
You pose so many questions
But the truth was hard to find
I better think twice I know
That I'll get over you

Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Much time has passed between us
Do you still think of me at all?
My world of broken promises
Now you won't catch me when I fall

Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again...
 
Twilight / Vanessa Carlton

I was stained with a role in a day not my own
As you walked into my life
You showed what needed to be shown
I always knew what was right
I just didn’t know that I might
Peel away and choose to see with such a different sight

And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high
‘Cause I’ve seen, ‘cause I’ve seen
Twilight

Never cared, never wanted, never sought to see what flaunted
So on purpose, so in my face, couldn’t see beyond my own place
And it was so easy not to behold what I could hold
But you taught me I could change whatever came within these shallow days

And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high
‘Cause I’ve seen, ‘cause I’ve seen...

As the sun shines through it pushes away and pushes ahead
It fills the warmth of blue and leaves a chill instead
And I didn’t know that I could be so blind to all that is so real
But as illusion dies I see there is so much to be revealed

And I will never see the sky the same way
And I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday
And I will never cease to fly if held down
And I will always reach too high
‘Cause I’ve seen, ‘cause I’ve seen

Take A Good Care Of Her / Sony James

Take good care of her, take good care of her
I suppose I ought to say "Congratulations !"
For you've won the only girl I ever loved
But I hurt too much to face the situation;
Just take good care of her, take good care of her.

Just to be around her was my greatest pleasure.
She was everything my future held in store.
So remember when you take my only treasure;
Just take good care of her, take good care of her

I must accept it, she loves you more than me.
So with my broken heart I'll bow out gracefully.
Please don't send me any wedding invitation.
For I couldn't bear to see her there with you.
If she's happy, that will be my consolation.
Just take good care of her, take good care of her.

Take good care of her, take good care of her,
Take good care of her, take good care of her.....
 
Great songs you guys! My iPod is going to be extra busy ;)


"If you're not the One"--Daniel Bedingfield


If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

'Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I
 
I Shall Believe: Sheryl Crow

Come to me now
And lay your hands over me
Even if it's a lie
Say it will be alright
And I shall believe

I'm broken in two
And I know you're on to me
That I only come home
When I'm so all alone
But I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly you won't give up on me
And I shall believe
And I shall believe

Open the door
And show me your face tonight
I know it's true
No one heals me like you
And you hold the key

Never again
would I turn away from you
I'm so heavy tonight
But your love is alright
And I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me
And I shall believe
I shall believe
And I shall believe
 
"You're Beautiful" - James Blunt

My life is brilliant
My love is pure
I saw an angel
Of that I'm sure
She smiled at me on the subway
She was with another man
But I wont lose no sleep on that
'Cause I've got a plan

{CHORUS}
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true
I saw your face in a crowded place,
and I dont know what to do
'cause I'll never be with you

Yeah, she caught my eye
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was high,
and I dont think that I'll see her again
but we shared a moment that will last 'til the end

{CHORUS}
You're beautiful. You're beautiful
You're beautiful, it's true
I saw your face in a crowded place
and I dont know what to do
cause I'll never be with you..

You`re beautiful. You're beautiful
You`re beautiful, it's true
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you,
But it's time to face the truth
I will never be with you....
 
"Get To Me"--Train

Well an airplane's faster than a Cadillac
And a whole lot smoother than a camel's back
But I don't care how you get to me
Just get to me
Parasail or first class mail
Get on the back of a Nightingale
Just get to me I don't care just get to me
Prokeds, mopeds take a limousine instead
They ain't cheap but they're easy to find
Get on the highway point yourself my way
Take a roller coaster that comes in sideways
Just get to me - yeah

Go on hitch a ride on the back
of a butterfly
There's no better way to fly
To get to me
I look around at what I got
And without you, it ain't a lot
But I got every, with you, everything

Maybe you could pollinate over the
Golden Gate
Take a left hand turn at the corner
Of Haight
And then a sharp right
At the first street light
And get yourself on a motor bike
And if you think you'll get stuck in a
traffic jam
That's fine, send yourself through a telephone line
It doesn't matter how you get to me
Just get to me

Cause after every day
The wind blows the night time my way
And I imagine that you are
Above me like a star
And you keep on glowing
And you keep on showing me the way
SHINE SHINE SHINE
