Post song lyrics that are important to me

Halo - Bethany Joy Lenz/Haley James Scott

I never promised you a ray of light
I never promised there’d be sunshine everyday
I give you everything I have, the good, the bad

Why do you put me on a pedestal
I’m so up high that I can’t see the ground below
So help me down you’ve got it wrong
I don’t belong there

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here, you wouldn’t say so
You wouldn’t say so, if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you

I always said that I would make mistakes
I’m only human, and that’s my saving grace
I fall as hard as I try
So don’t be blinded

See me as I really am, I have flaws and sometimes I even sin
So pull me from that pedestal (Pull me from that pedestal)
I don’t belong there (I don’t belong)

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here, you wouldn’t say so
You wouldn’t say so, if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you

Why you think that you know me
But In your eyes
I am something above you
It’s only in your mind
Only in your mind

I wear,
I wear,
I wear a halo

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here, you wouldn’t say so
You wouldn’t say so, if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you
(I just wanna love you)

Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo (Halo)
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo (Hey)
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo (Halo, hey)
Heya Hey…Hey Hey Halo (Halo)

I’m A Martyr For My Love For You - The White Stripes

She was sixteen and six feet tall
In a crowd of teenagers comin’ out of the zoo
She stumbled started to slip and fall
Teeter-tottered on the top of patent leather shoes
I happened to catch her and said,
“maybe these ruby shoes are a little cumbersome for you”

Maybe for you, now

But not as shaky as I must have seemed
Talkin’ junk through her giggle, little teenage dream
And on the phone I could not compete
My dumb-love fake competence was getting weak
For a sec’ I thought I sounded sweet
But sure ‘nough in a gruff, faint voice
I heard myself speak

[Chorus:]
I could stay a while
But sooner or later I’ll break your smile
And I can tell a joke
But one of these days I’m bound to choke
And we could share a kiss
But I feel like I can’t go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
But I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone

Leave you alone, now

I’m beginning to like you
So you probably won’t get what I’m going to do
I’m walkin’ away from you
It probably don’t make much sense to you
But I’m trying to save you
From all of the things that I’ll probably say or do

I’ll probably do

[Chorus:]
I could stay a while
But sooner or later I’ll break your smile
And I can tell a joke
But one of these days I’m bound to choke
And we might share a kiss
But I feel like a can’t go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
But I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone

Leave you alone, now

You’ll probably call me a fool
And say I’m doin’ exactly what a coward would do
And I’m beginning to like you
It’s a shame what a lame way to live
But what can I do?
I hope you appreciate what I do

I’m a martyr for my love for you
A martyr for my love for you, now
A martyr for my love for you
A martyr for my love for you

Emily - From First To Last

Smiles and her laughter,
It’s the only thing that I’ve been waiting for, a time.
Regardless of our distance, and our hope, grows greater.
Swept by pretty eyes and laughter for, a time.
The only thing that I’ve been waiting for.

I hope it’s something worth the waiting,
‘Cause it’s the only time that I ever feel real.
Thunderstorms could never stop me,
‘Cause there’s no one in the world like Emily.

She’s simple yet confusing,
Her sparkling eyes make me weak at my words, they tremble.
Days seem like years in this month of December.
The winter, coldens me for I have yet to sleep.
And never, will I give up trying ‘cause you’re everything to me.

I hope it’s something worth the waiting,
It’s the only time that I ever feel real.
Thunderstorms could never stop me,
‘Cause there’s no one in the world like Emily.

There’s no one in the world like Emily.

Thunder - Boys Like Girls

Today is a winding road
Thats taking me to places that I didnt want to go, whoa
Today in the blink of an eye
Im holding on to something and I do not know why I tried

I tried to read between the lines
I tried to look in your eyes
I want a simple explanation; what Im feeling inside
I gotta find a way out
Maybe theres a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

Today is a winding road
Tell me where to start and tell me something I dont know, whoa
Today Im on my own
I cant move a muscle and I cant pick up the phone, I dont know

And now I’m itching for the tall grass
And longing for the breeze
I need to step outside, just to see if I can breathe
I gotta find a way out
Maybe theres a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

Yeah Im walking on a tightrope
I’m wrapped up in vines
I think Ill make it out but you just gotta give me time
Strike me down with lightning
Let me feel you in my veins
I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain

Today is a winding road
Thats taking me to places that I didnt want to go, whoa

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
Oh baby bring on the pain
And listen to the thunder

She’s Always A Woman - Billy Joel

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child,
But she’s always a woman to me

She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she’ll never believe
And she’ll take what you give her, as long as it’s free
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she’s always a woman to me

CHORUS:
Oh—she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She’s ahead of her time
Oh—and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

And she’ll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she’ll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you’re bleedin’
But she’ll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she’s always a woman to me
-Mhmm-

Bridge

CHORUS:
Oh—she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She’s ahead of her time
Oh—and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

She is frequently kind
And she’s suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She’s nobody’s fool
And she can’t be convicted
She’s earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she’s always a woman to me
-Mhmm-
