    I would give anything I own,
    Give up my life, my heart, my home.
    I would give everything I own,
    just to have you back again.

    "And remember the truth that once was spoken:
    'To love another person is to see the face of God.'"

    Finale from Les Miserables. Not even religious and it moves me to tears.

    What have I become, my sweetest friend
    Everyone I know, goes away in the end
    You could have it all, my empire of dirt
    I will let you down, I will make you hurt.

    Not beautiful.. but powerful.

    "I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
    I know you'll be the sun...
    in somebody else's sky...
    but whyyy... whyyy can't it be mineeeeeee"

    Pearl Jam.

    I was trying to decide between that and another one. So thank you!

    This is my all time favorite song, and I think the whole thing is beautiful. But in the spirit of brevity...

    And there's a memory of a window
    Looking through I see you
    Searching for something I could never give you
    And there's someone who understands
    You more than I do
    A sadness I can't erase
    All alone on your face

    "God of Wine"- Third Eye Blind

    I just think this line from Ed Sheeran's song "Wake Me Up" is the most romantic thing:

    "See, I could do without a tan on my left hand where my fourth finger meets my knuckle."

    Favorite song right there.

    well, of course (per my profile)

    I'm just a lonely pilgrim
    I walk this world in wealth
    I want to know if it's you I don't trust
    'cause I damn sure don't trust myself

    Not a line but phrase:

    I stand naked before you now
    No walls to hide behind
    So here am I
    You see all of my scars
    Still here you are
    I bear my soul and I'm not afraid

    I always remember this one by Staind:

    And it's been awhile
    Since I've seen the way
    The candles light your face
    And it's been awhile
    But I can still remember
    Just the way you taste

    And from Natasha Bedingfield:

    Live your life with arms wide open
    Today is where your book begins
    The rest is still unwritten

    THIS SONG IS THE BOMB FROM THE EARLY 80'S

    "IF I COULD FLY,
    I'D PICK YOU UP, AND TAKE YOU INTO THE NIGHT,
    AND SHOW YOU LOVE, LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN,
    EVER SEEN"

    INTO THE NIGHT, BENNY MARDONES.

    Twirling round with this familiar parable.
    Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
    Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate
    this chance to be alive and breathing.

    This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
    Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal.
    All this pain is an illusion.

    Stacy, can I come over after school? (after school)
    We can hang around by the pool (hang by the pool)
    Did your mom get back from her business trip? (business trip)
    Is she there, or is she trying to give me the slip? (give me the slip)

    You know, I'm not the little boy that I used to be
    I'm all grown up now, baby can't you see

    Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
    She's all I want and I've waited for so long
    Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
    I know it might be wrong but I'm in love with Stacy's mom

    Anything to make you smile
    You are the ever-living ghost of what once was
    I never want to hear you say
    That you'd be better off
    Or you liked it that way

    But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
    No one's gonna love you more than I do

    Band of Horses- No one's gonna love you....

    Sweet little song.

    "Vulcanize the whoopee stick
    In the ham wallet
    Cattle prod the oyster ditch
    With the lap rocket
    Batter dip the cranny ax
    In the gut locker
    Retrofit the pudding hatch
    Ooh la la
    With the boink swatter"

    One line is REALLY hard and eliminates a lot of beautiful songs/verses, and beautiful isn't the first adjective I'd use, but:

    "I can't deny myself being alive through my alienation." from Mara and Me by Say Anything.

    For a verse, I'm really in live with a song off the latest City and Colour album:

    "I don’t know what drugs to take,
    To successfully alter the state,
    That my mind has been in as of late,
    Something is eating away at my brain,
    There’s an elephant in the back of the room,
    And it’s standing in plain view,
    Everyone can see,
    That it looks just like me."

    "So now I'm praying for the end of time
    To hurry up and arrive
    'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
    I don't think that I can really survive
    I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
    But God only knows what I can do right now
    I'm praying for the end of time
    It's all that I can do
    Praying for the end of time,
    So I can end my time with you!!" Meatloaf

    Good lord what a fine *kitten* love song. Gets me every time.

    I have two.... Two different songs from the same artist. Jewel

    Kiss the flame-
    "But wherefore art thou Romeo
    where have all the brave men gone
    Show me one man who know his own heart
    To him I shall belong"

    Hands-
    "If I could tell the world just one thing
    It would be that we're all OK
    And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
    And useless in times like these
    I won't be made useless
    I won't be idle with despair
    I will gather myself around my faith
    For light does the darkness most fear"

    "In the end only kindness matters"

    this is a great song as long as your not scotty

    Lustra-Scotty Doesn't Know


    Scotty doesn't know that Fiona and me
    Do it in my van every Sunday
    She tells him she's in church but she doesn't go
    Still she's on her knees and Scotty doesn't know!


    Fiona says she's out shopping
    But she's under me
    And I'm not stopping

    I can't believe he's so trusting
    While I'm right behind you thrusting
    Fiona's got him on the phone
    And she's trying not to moan
    It's a three-way call and he knows nothing, nothing!
