"Gee but its great after being out late walking my baby back home, the hours roll by she gives me the eye, walking my baby back home, we stop for a while she gives me a smile, she cuddles her head to my chest and thats when i get her powder all over my vest" Walking My Baby Back Home, Nat King Cole.
"I swear like the shadow thats by your side, ill be there for better or worse till death do us part, i'll love you with every beat of my heart, and i swear i'll give you everything i can, i'll build your dreams with these two hands we'll hang some memories on the walls and when just the two of us are there, you wont have to ask if i care, cuz as time turns the page, my love wont age at all" I Swear, Boyz II Men.
"If I were a king & you were a lady, What would I sing to say what I'm saying, And would you believe the verses left open, My heart on my sleeve the rhyming all broken, And how does it feel when the world, comes back so real & true, And how do you do the things you do to you", The Downstream, Ocean Colour Scene
"Theres no combination of words i could put on the back of a postcard no song that i could sing but i can try for your heart, our dreams and they are made out of real things like a shoe box of photographs with sepia tone loving, love is the answer at lest for most of the questions in my heart" Better Together, Jack Johnson.
"Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth mid sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs speak no feeling, no i dont believe you, you dont care a bit" Hide and Seek, Imogen Heap.
"Stuck on the end of this ball and chain and im on my way back down again, stood on a bridge tied to the noose, sick to the stomach, you can say what you mean but it wont change a thing, im sick of the secrets, stood on the edge, tied to a noose, you came along and cut me loose" Amsterdam, Coldplay.
"Well sometime si go out by myself and i look across the water, and i think of all the things, what to do and in my head i paint a picture" Valerie, Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse.
"They tried to tell us we were too young to really be in love, they say that loves a word a word we have only heard and cant begin to know the meaning of, and yet were not too young to know, this love will last though years may go, and then someday they may recall we were not too young at all" Too Young, Nat King Cole.
