lyrics in my life....

i love lyrics. i love that sometimes you feel like you're going through something NO ONE has ever gone through or thought. like the world is on our shoulders. and then you hear a song, and it hits you hard, gives you goosebumps. because hearing that song is proof that at least one other person has gone through what you're going through. and they survived. 

here are some i want to share. some that i love. it doesn't matter the song. doesn't matter the artist. what matters is that someone else has felt the same thing. 

--i thought i was doing it right bein' alone

i swore i'd never let somebody get close again

i was never gonna let my guard down, not for anyone

but there's a light in your eyes and it's got me movin' in

and tonight these walls are all comin' down

and my heart is open, i'm lettin' you in

cause you give me a reason

and the faith i've been needing to start again--

--slow to trust but i'm quick to love.

i push to hard and i give too much

i ain't saying i'm perfect.

but i'm saying i'm worth it.

now i'm standing here in front of you.

tell me boy, what are you gonna do?--

--cause you give me something.

that makes me scared, alright

this could be nothing

but i'm willing to give it a try

please give me something

cause someday i might know my heart--

--cause i'm not who i was

when i took my first step

and i'm clinging to the promise

you're not through with me yet

so if all of these trials

bring me closer to you

then i will walk through the fire

if you want me to--

--i wanna do something that matters

say something different

something that sets the whole world on it's ear

i wanna do something better, with the time i've been given

and i wanna touch a few hearts in this life

and leave nothing less than something that says

i was here--

--they say that time takes it's toll on a body

makes the young girls brown hair turn grey

honey i don't care, i'm not in love with your hair

if it all fell out, i'd love you anyways--

--i won't run when it looks like love

i can't spend another night alone

regretting what i've done

so i won't run--

--if you want to be happy for the rest of your life

never make a pretty woman your wife

go for my personal point of view

get an ugly girl to marry you--
