In your opinion...?

Question

what are the greatest LYRICS ever written? What lyrics stab you in the heart, regardless of how good the song is?

Answer 1

"Imagine" by John Lennon

Answer 2

Unchained Melody - The Righteous Brothers

Answer 3

She Moves On and Further to Fly, Paul Simon. There was a woman involved, of course, and my heart never grew together afterwards - might be part of the reason why I die a little every time I hear them.

Answer 4

Imagine by John Lennon

Answer 5

Simple Man~Lynyrd Skynyrd
What it Takes~Aerosmith
Crazy On You~Heart
Heartbreaker~Rolling Stones

These 4 came to mind off the top of my head.

Answer 6

there is one lyric by Hillsongs that i can't sing along to without getting emotional...

here it is....

it's called "just let me say"

Just let me say how much I love You
Let me speak of Your mercy and grace
Just let me live in the shadow of Your beauty
Let me see You face to face
And the Earth will shake as Your Word goes forth
And the heavens can tremble and fall
But let me say how much I love You
O my Savior, my Lord and Friend

Just let me hear Your finest whispers
As You gently call my name
And let me see Your power and Your glory
Let me feel Your Spirit's flame
Let me find You in the desert
'Til this sand is holy ground
And I am found completely surrendered
To You, my Lord and friend

So let me say how much I love You
With all my heart I long for You
For I am caught in this passion of knowing
This endless love I've found in You
And the depth of grace, the forgiveness found
To be called a child of God
Just makes me say how much I love You
O my Savior, my Lord and friend
Just makes me say how much I love You
O my Savior, my Lord and friend

-sniff-

Answer 10

-THIS IS FOR THOSE WHO HAVE THEIR HEART BROKEN

HALF CRAZY-FREESTYLE

Know I havent slept a week at all
Since you’ve been gone
And my eyes are kinda tired
From crying all night long
Know I’ve never been too good at cooking just for one
It’s so lonely here without you darling
Come back home

‘Cause I’m half crazy
Feelin’ sorry for myself
Half crazy
Worried you’d find someone else to love

Know life hasnt been much fun at all
Since you’ve been gone
And my eyes being to feel
Each time I hear a sound
I spent every minute asking myself
What went wrong
Can’t we try to talk it over baby
Come back home

‘Cause I’m half crazy
Feelin’ sorry for myself
Half crazy
Worried you’d find someone else to love
But baby there is no-one else
Half crazy
For everything you saying
Half crazy
No one else could love you like I do

‘Cause I’m half crazy
Feelin’ sorry for myself
Half crazy
Worried you’d find someone else to love
But baby there is no-one else
Half crazy
For everything you saying
Half crazy
No one else could ever love you
No one else could ever be

Half crazy
Feeling sorry for myself
And I’m worried you’ll find someone else
Feeling sorry for myself
Half crazy

I JUST CANT STOP LOVING YOU
MICHAEL JACKSON


just want to lay next to you for awhile
You look so beautiful tonight
Your eyes are so lovely
Your mouth is so sweet
A lot of people misunderstand me
That's because they don't know me at all
I just want to touch you
And hold you
I need you
God I need you
I love you so much

[Michael]
Each time the wind blows
I hear your voice so
I call your name...
Whispers at morning
Our love is dawning
Heaven's glad you came...

You know how I feel
This thing can't go wrong
I'm so proud to say I love you
Your love's got me high
I long to get by
This time is forever
Love is the answer

[Siedah]
I hear your voice now
You are my choice now
The love you bring
Heaven's in my heart
At your call
I hear harps,
And angels sing

You know how I feel
This thing can't go wrong
I can't live my life without you

[Michael]
I just can't hold on

[Siedah]
I feel we belong

I just can't stop loving you

Then tell me just what will I do

[Siedah]
'Cause I just can't stop loving you

[Michael]
At night when the stars shine
I pray in you I'll find
A love so true...

[Siedah]
When morning awakes me
Will you come and take me
I'll wait for you

[Michael]
You know how I feel
I won't stop until
I hear your voice saying "I do"

[Siedah]
"I do"
This thing can't go wrong

[Michael]
This feeling's so strong

[Siedah]
Well, my life ain't worth living

[Both]

I just can't stop loving you
I just can't stop loving you
And if I stop...
Then tell me, just what will I do

[Michael]
I just can't stop loving you

We can change all the world tomorrow

[Michael]
We can sing songs of yesterday

I can say, hey... farewell to sorrow

[Michael]
This is my life and I,

[Both]
Want to see you for always
I just can't stop loving you

[Siedah]
