Hey, I had my heart set on you
And nothing else hurts like you do
Who knew that love was so cruel
And I
Waited and waited so long
For someone who’d never come home.

Christine Aguilera and Blake Shelton:

Pearl Jam:

On a cold December evening 
I was walking through the Christmastide 
When a stranger came up and asked me 
If I’d heard John Lennon had died 
And the two of us went to this bar 
And we stayed to close the place 
And every song we played 
Was for the Late Great Johnny Ace.

Paul Simon:

So take a lesson from the strangeness you feel 
And know you’ll never be the same 
And find it in your heart to kneel down and say 
I gave my love, didn’t I? 
And I gave it big sometimes 
And I gave it in my own sweet time 
I’m just leaving.

Jane Siberry:

Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around?
Now I’ve said too much.
