For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat with mind
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our live be so blind
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are by my side
So now I come to you, with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms
Living without you, living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you, wanting you near
How much I wanted you home
But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay.

Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
If I see you next to never
How can we say forever
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
I took for granted, all the times
That I though would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now
Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' CrAzY
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance
Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' cRaZy
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

When I think back on these times
And the dreams we left behind
I'll be glad 'cause I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back on these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me
In my dreams

Above the sky
In my heart

For you for all my life

Of you with me
And everywhere I am

Of you with me
And everywhere I am

My light, my strength
And I want to thank you
Now for all the ways
You were right there for me (You were right there for me)
You were right there for me
For always
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart

第八名：Eric
Clapton - Wonderful Tonight
It's late in the evening;
she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up
and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."
We go to a party and everyone
turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.
It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Aaaah woah-ah-aah
Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
And through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life there's been heartache
and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
Aaaah woah-oh-ooh
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me, oooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh oooh
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache
and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
And I know, I know you can show me
Let's talk about love

(I want you to show me) I'm feeling so much love

is what I feel when I'm with you
Maybe it's the way you touch me with the warmth of a sun
Maybe it's the way you smile, I come all undone
Oooh, babe, lost in love is that I feel when I'm with you
Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
When I'm with you
I never cared for nobody like I care for you
And I never wanted to share the things I want to share with you
Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you
Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you

When I'm with you

We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way
We've only begun
Before
the rising sun we fly
So
many roads to choose
We
start our walking
And
learn to run
And
yes! We've just begun
Sharin'
horizons that are new to us
Watchin'
the signs along the way
Talkin'
it over just the two of us
Workin'
together day to day, together
And
when the evening comes we smile
So
much of life ahead
We'll
find a place where there's room to grow
And
yes! We've just begun
Sharin'
horizons that are new to us
Watchin'
the signs along the way
Talkin'
it over just the two of us
Workin'
together day to day, together, together
And
when the evening comes we smile
So
much of life ahead
We'll
find a place where there's room to grow
And
yes! We've just begun
第六名：LeAnn Rimes - How Do I Live
《How Do I Live》最开始是词曲女王Diane Warren为LeAnn Rimes量身订作的歌，并提供为电影《空中监狱》的主题曲。但电影导演认为LeAnn Rimes的稚气歌声无法呈现电影中成熟韵味，于是找来Trisha
Yearwood主唱。不过LeAnn Rimes的版本在当年的美国单曲榜上停留了长达69周之久，被公告牌评为史上最佳歌曲第4名。同时，这首歌也获选美国十大电台情歌第六名。
How
do I,
Get
through the night without you?
If
I had to live without you,
What
kind of life would that be?
Oh,
I
I
need you in my arms, need you to hold,
You're
my world, my heart, my soul,
If
you ever leave,
Baby
you would take away everything good in my life,
And
tell me now
How
do I live without you?
I
want to know,
How
do I breathe without you?
If
you ever go,
How
do I ever, ever survive?
How
do I, how do I, oh how do I live?
Without
you,
There'd
be no sun in my sky,
There
would be no love in my life,
There'd
be no world left for me.
And
I,
Baby
I don't know what I would do,
I'd
be lost if I lost you,
If
you ever leave,
Baby
you would take away everything real in my life,
And
tell me now,
How
do I live without you?
I
want to know,
How
do I breathe without you?
If
you ever go,
How
do I ever, ever survive?
How
do I, how do I, oh how do I live?
Please
tell me baby,
How
do I go on?
If
you ever leave,
Baby
you would take away everything,
I
need you with me,
Baby
don't you know that you're everything,
Real
in my life?
And
tell me now,
How
do I live without you,
I
want to know,
How
do I breathe without you?
If
you ever go,
How
do I ever, ever survive?
How
do I, how do I, oh how do I live?
How
do I live without you?
How
do I live without you baby?
