Maybe I don’t know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you :)
— Celine Dion, Because you loved me
I don’t know the way you feel
But boy, I’m hoping
I always used to hide away
But now I’m open
— Emma Bunton, ‘Take my breath away’
When you put your hopes in that one person -
that’s when you know he’ll fail you and you’ll get disappointed.
State the obvious,
I didn’t get my perfect fantasy
I realized you love yourself
More that you could ever love me
— Taylor Swift, Picture to Burn
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart now?
Why would you wanna make the very first scar?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
It’s not unbroken anymore
How do I get it back the way it was before?
— Taylor Swift, “A Perfectly Good Heart”
And when I got home, before I said, ‘Amen’
Asking God if He could play it again
— Taylor Swift, “Our Song”
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer.
But this I know with all my heart:
His wounds have paid my ransom.
— Stuart Townend, as sung by Nichole Nordeman, “How deep the Father’s love for us”
