Lyrics

Using lyrics on graphics can be very useful, so here are some of my favourite songs with lyrics that might work well on your art. Note: I've put the artists down as who sings the version I know, I'm too lazy to check for the originals. XD

Always On My Mind

Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your
Sweet love hasn't died
And give me
Give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Little things I should have
Said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[by Willie Nelson]

Butterfly

For once in my life I couldn’t deny
I thought that I’d found my everything
A lover a friend, the hours we would spend just doing nothing at all
Yeah, but your need to leave is yours alone, break free let go

Butterfly fly, fly away from here
I know we tried, tried through the laughter and the tears
You’ll always be a part of me
In my heart you’ll always be
Butterfly fly, fly away, fly away

Deep in your eyes it's there that I find
All that I really ever need
Whatever I do you know that its you girl In every face I see
Your last goodbye was yours alone, break free let go

Butterfly fly, fly away from here
I know we tried, tried through the laughter and the tears
You’ll always be a part of me
In my heart you’ll always be
Butterfly fly, fly away, fly away

To the place you belong, I hope you hear the feeling strong
Hope that you can find the freedom in your life, in your life
My sweet butterfly

Just fly away, just fly away
I know we tried, tried through the laughter and the tears
You’ll always be a part of me
In my heart you’ll always be
Butterfly fly, fly away, oh fly Away, oh yeah

For once in my life I couldn’t deny
I thought that I’d found my everything
A lover a friend, the hours we would spend just doing nothing at all

For once in my life I couldn’t deny
I thought that I’d found my everything
For once in my life I couldn’t deny
I thought that I’d found my everything

[by Take That]

Don't Give Up (You Are Loved)

Don’t give up
It’s just the weight of the world
When your heart’s heavy, I
I will lift it for you
Don’t give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you, I
I will break it for you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don’t give up
Because you are loved

Don’t give up
It’s just the hurt
That you hide
When you’re lost inside, I
I’ll be there to find you

Don’t give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you I
I will shine to guide you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don’t give up
Because you are loved

You are loved

Don’t give up
It's just the weight of the world

Don't give up
Everyone needs to be loved

You are loved

[by Josh Groban]

Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

[by Johnny Cash]

Holding Out For A Hero

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where’s the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need

I need a hero
I'm holding out for at hero 'till the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
He’s gotta be sure
And it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There’s someone reaching back for me

Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It’s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
He’s gotta be sure
And it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life

I need a hero
I'm holding out for at hero 'till the the end of the night

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I could swear there is someone somewhere
Watching me

Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like a fire in my blood

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
He's gotta be sure And he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night

[by Bonnie Tyler]

I'd Lie For You (And That's The Truth)

I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
Baby give me a chance

I'd pull the sun out from the sky to light your darkest night
I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
Put your heart in my hands

Believe me baby, I could never do you wrong
And I would never paint your world blue
And if sometimes it seems I must have lost mind
I might be crazy but I'm crazy about you

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you want me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me

Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
Just take a hold of my hand, I'll take you to paradise
Ain't a star that's too far

Your every wish will be a wish that I will make come true
And if you want the moon I swear I'll bring it down for you
Let me into your heart

Believe me baby got your name carved on my soul
You're the only one that I'll give it to
Go let 'em say that I'm I fool to act this way
'Cause if I'm crazy, I'm just crazy 'bout you

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me

And you will never see a day I'll ever break your heart
You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
I'll show you heaven every second that you're in my arms
Baby I'm crazy, but I'm crazy about you!

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me

I'd walk across the wild for you
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
Do anything you asked me to

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me

I'd lie for you and thats the truth

[by Meatloaf]

Like I Never Loved You At All

Where, where are the stars?
The ones that we used to call ours
Can't imagine it now
We used to laugh 'til we fell down

The secrets we had, now in the past
From something to nothing, tell me

How did we lose our way?
It's hard to remember, all that we shared
Now we both have seperate lives
From lovers to strangers, now alone
There's no one catching my fall
No one to hear my call
It's like I never loved you at all

Now you're so far away
And I see our star is fading
One too many times
Guess it just got tired of waiting around

The nights that we thought, if these walls could talk
From something to nothing, tell me

How did we lose our way?
It's hard to remember, all that we shared
Now we both have seperate lives
From lovers to strangers, now alone
There's no one catching my fall
No one to hear my call
It's like I never loved you

So now does he give you love?
Oh, is it only me now that's thinking of, what we had and what we were
Oh, Did you ever care, baby was I ever there?

How did we lose our way?
It's hard to remember, all that we shared
Now we both have seperate lives
From lovers to strangers, now alone
Tell me how, did we lose our way
It's hard to remember, all that we've shared
Now we both have seperate lives
From lovers to strangers, now alone

Tell me how, did we lose our way
It's hard to remember, all that we've shared
Now we both have seperate lives
From lovers to strangers, now alone

There's no one catching my fall
No one to hear my call
It's like I never loved you at all

It's like I never loved you at all
It's like I never loved you at all
It's like I never loved you at all

[by Take That]

Not Alone Anymore

You always said that I'd be back again
That I'd come running to you in the end
I thought that you were on your own
And now I find you're not alone

I'll see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
You're not alone any more

You always said that I would know someday
Just how it feels when your love walks away
I let you down, I let you go
I lost you, how was I to know

I'll see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
You're not alone any more

I never knew I could feel this way
I never could see past yesterday
You feel that everything is gone
I feel it too, you're not alone

I'll see you through the rain
Every heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
You're not alone, you're not alone
You're not alone any more, any more, any more

[by the Traveling Wilburys]

Patience

Just have a little patience

I'm still hurting from a love I lost
I'm feeling your frustration
That any minute all the pain will stop
Just hold, me close, inside your arms, tonight
don't be too hard on my emotions

'Cause I, need time
My heart is numb, has no feeling
So while I'm still healing
Just try, and have a little patience

I really want to start over again
I know you wanna be my salvation
The one that I could always depend

I'll try to be strong believe me
I'm trying to move on
It's complicated but understand me

'Cause I, need time
My heart is numb has no feeling
So while I'm still healing
Just try, and have a little patience
have a little patience

'Cause the scars run so deep
It's been hard
But I have to believe

Have a little patience
Have a little patience

Woah, Cause I, I just need time
My heart is numb has no feeling
So while I'm still healing
just try, and have a little patience
have a little patience

My heart is numb, has no feeling
So while I'm still healing
just try, and have a little patience

[by Take That]

When You Say You Love Me

Like the sound of silence calling
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting
You say those words and my heart stops beating
I wonder what it means
What could it be that comes over me
At times I can't move
At times I can hardly breath

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

You're the one I've always thought of
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love
You're where I belong
And when you're with me if I close my eyes
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

And this journey that we're on
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment
And when you say you love me
That's all you have to say
I'll always feel this way

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment,I know why I'm alive

When you say you love me
When you say you love me
Do you know how I love you?
