Our Song

by: Taylor Swift

I was riding shot gun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
He's got one-hand feel on the steering wheel the other on my heart
I look around turned the radio down he said "baby, is something wrong?"
I say "Nothing, I was just thinking how we don't have a song"
And he says

Our song is the slamming screen door,
Sneaking out late, tapping on your window;
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "Man, I didn't kiss her and I should have"
And when I got home
Before I said amen
Askin' God if He could play it again

I was walking at the front porch steps after everything that day
Had gone all wrong, had been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice all the roses
And the note that said

Our song is the slammin' screen door
Sneakin' out late, tappin' on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "man, I didn't kiss her and I should have"
And when I got home, before I said amen
Askin' God if He can play it again

I've heard every album
Listened to the radio
Waiting for something to come along
that was good as our song

'Cause our song is the slammin' screen door
Sneakin' out late, tappin' on his window
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
'Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date "man, I didn't kiss him and I should have"
And when I got home, before I said amen
Askin' God if he can play it again

I was riding shot gun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin and I wrote down our song

Every Time

Jesus, I love You. I need you, my Savior
Jesus, Your love it has healed me, opened my heart

Jesus, I thank You for all that You've given
Jesus, I stand here amazed at forgiveness

CHORUS:
Every time I close my eyes
I'm filled with awe of what You've done
Every time I think on you
I'm grateful for Your love

Oh Lord, here I am
Raise my hand, I surrender
Oh Lord, here I am
At Your throne, Sweet abandon

When God Made You

It's always been a mystery to me
How two hearts can come together
And love can last forever
But now that I have found you I believe
That a miracle has come when God sends the perfect one

So gone are all my questions about why
And I've never been so sure of anything in my life

Oh I wonder what God was thinking
When He created you
I wonder if He knew everything I would need
Because He made all my dreams come true
When God made you
He must have been thinking about me

I promise that wherever you may go
Wherever life may lead, with all my heart, I'll be there too
And from this moment on, I want you to know
I'll let nothing come between us
And I will love the ones you love

So, gone are all my questions about why
And I've never been so sure of anything in my life

I wonder what God was thinking
When He created you
I wonder if He knew everything I would need
Because He made all my dreams come true
When God made you
He must have been thinking about me

He made the sun He made the moon
to harmonize in perfect tune
One can't do without the other
They just have to be together
And that is how I know it's true
You're for me and I'm for you
'Cause my world can't just be right without you in my life

I wonder what God was thinking
When He created you
I wonder if He knew everything I would need
Because He made all my dreams come true

He must have heard every prayer I've been prayin'
'Cause He knew everything I would need

When God you (I thank God, He made you)
When my dreams come true (you are my love, my love)
When God made you, He must have been thinking about me

Love Makes a Friend

What made give your last cookie away
Or help me clean my room all day
Why would let me use your stereo
Or save me the middle of your Oreo

Why would you always try to be
there when I really really need you there to care
You're always willing to share

Love makes a friend be a friend like you
Love takes a friendship and turns it into
Something to last your whole life through
Love makes a friend be a friend like you

What makes you wanna give your heart away
What makes open up and say
All of the feelings that you hold inside
All of the secrets that you try to hide

Why would you always try to be
There when I really really need you there to care
You're always willing to share

Love makes a friend be a friend like you
Love takes a friendship and turns it into
Something to last for all life through
Love makes a friend be a friend like you
Love makes a friend be a friend like you

You First Believed



By: 'Hoku'

Stanza I:
How many times did I pray You'd find me
How many wishes on a star
Gazing off into the dark
Dreaming I'd see your face
Safe at home, unafraid
Captured in your embrace

Stanza II:
So many times when my heart was broken
Visions of you would keep me strong
You were with me all along
Guiding my every step
You are all that I am
And I'll never forget

CHORUS:
It was you who first believed
In all that I was made to be
It was you looking in my eyes
You held my hand
And showed me life
And I've never been the same
Since you first believed

Stanza III:
There were times
When I'd thought I'd lost you
Fearing forever was a dream
But it wasn't what it seemed
Placing your hand in mine
You could see in the dark
You were guiding my heart

(Repeat Chorus)

How many times did I pray
You'd find me
How many wishes on a star

I Don't Need a Man


By: Jaci Velasquez

I don't need a man
To make the call for me
I don't need a man
To break the fall for me
Cause I know who I am
And who I wanna be (Uhmmm)

There used to be a time
I had to win the race
When just to get the guy
would put me in first place
But now it's time to fly
'Cause I don't need that adoration, validation just to feel alive

CHORUS:
Don't get me wrong
i still wanna fall in love real high
if it's real and for the right reasons
and i might long for someone to come and steal my heart
but i don't need a man

I want, might want You
But I don't need you, no

STANZA 2:
I don't need a man
To wash the car for me
But if you do insist
then honey, take the keys
i hope you understand
that i don't have to have you save me just to make me feel like im alright

(Repeat Chorus)

BRIDGE:
The road's wide open and I'm in for the ride
though I'm still hoping
I don't wanna need us to come from the inside

It's amazing times are changing
I'm alone but who's complaining
I don't need no one to be someone
I'm already fine (oh)

(Repeat Chorus)

CHORUS 2:
Don't get me wrong
I still hope its written in the stars
cause if it's real i'd be your one and only
It wont be long for someone to come and steal my heart
but I don't need a man

I want, might want You
But I dont need you, no (till fades)
