Meaningful Lyrics

It was an usual week night and I was lying on my bed trying to go off to sleep (although I didn't need much to do to fall asleep!) with my music on. I was just about to drift away in my dreamland, when this particular song started playing on my radio. For a minute I was swept away by the tune and then I was almost in tears. The lyrics were so touching and beautiful that I did not even realize tears welling up in my eyes. I could not help humming that song the next morning and I realized it had beautiful and meaningful lyrics! Given below are a few more songs like that.

For the things I know I should have done
All the things I could have said come back to me"

Not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me
Pretending that they're not alone?"

You are someone else
I am still right here"

Now I got that feeling once again I can't explain,

This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb"

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo"

I was too damn stubborn to try to stop you or say anything
But I see clearly now
And this choice I made keeps playing in my head
Over and over again "
