"There's a house across the river, but alas, I cannot swim. And a garden of such beauty that the flowers seem to grin. There's a house across the river, but alas, I cannot swim. I'll live my life regretting that I never jumped in. There's a boy across the river with short (blond) curly hair. He wants to be my lover and I want to be his peer. There's a boy across the river, but alas, I cannot swim. And I never will get to put my arms around him. There's a life across the river that was meant for me. But instead I live my life in constant misery. There's a life across the river, but I do not see why I should please those who will never be pleased." Laura Marling – Alas I Cannot Swim

"Fools in love; are there any other kinds of lovers? Fools in love; is there any other kind of pain? Everything you do, everywhere you go now. Everything you touch, everything you feel. Everything you see, everything you know now, everything you do, you do it for your baby love…Fools in love; never knowing when they've lost the game…Fools in love, they think they're heroes 'cause they get to feel no pain. I say fools in love are zeroes. I should know. I should know because this fool's in love again." Inara George – Fools in Love

"I wish I had what I needed to be on my own, 'cause I feel so defeated and I'm feelin' alone. And it all seems so helpless and I have no plans. I'm a plane in the sunset with nowhere to land. And all I see, it could never make me happy. And all my sandcastles spend their time collapsing. Let me know that you hear me, let me know your touch. Let me know that you love me, and let that be enough…And I feel stuck watching history repeating. Yeah, who am I? Just a kid who knows she's needy." Switchfoot – Let That Be Enough

"I was sinking when you pulled me from the depths and you were drinking when we sat down on the steps and you said, "Girl, I've been trying to be all the things that I swear you can see." Now we're waiting for the next best thing to come. They say I'm crazy when I mean to be enough. And I keep saying that everything's fine. But you're the one who keeps taking the time. You should know this is no kind of life. So tell me something I don't know a million miles away. And as you grab your things to go, there's something I should say. Lovers, friends, and waiting-fors lost out in the fray. Would you say goodbye? Would you walk away? We were driving and the wind was in your hair. Couldn't stop crying, 'cause for me it's always there…Maybe we're better off as friends, but if I go now you know the story has to end. I can't keep playing your songs all the time. Waiting here just to hear you on the line. 'Cause I know you will never be mine. Be mine…" Meghan Tonjes – Be Mine

"Questions, I've got some questions. I want to know you. But what if I could ask you only one thing only this one time? What would you tell me? Well, maybe you could give me a suggestion so I could know you. What would you tell me? Maybe you could tell me what to ask you, 'cause then I'd know you. What would you tell me? Please tell me that there's time to make this work for all intents and purposes. And what are your intentions? Will you try? Impressions, you've made impressions. They're going nowhere. They're just gonna wait here if you let them. Please, don't let them. I want to know you. And if they're gonna haunt me, please collect them, please just collect them. And now I'm begging. I'm begging you to ask me just one question, one simple question, 'cause then you'd know me. I'd tell you that there's time to make this work for all intents and purposes – at least for my own. What is a heart worth if it's just left all alone. Must we all always be untrue?" Jack Johnson – Questions

"They were sitting, they were sittin' in the strawberry swing. Every moment was so precious. They were sitting, they were talkin' in the strawberry swing. Everybody was for fighting. Wouldn't wanna waste a thing. Cold, cold water, bring me 'round, now my feet won't touch the ground. Cold, cold water, watcha say when it's such, it's such a perfect day? It's such a perfect day. I remember we were walkin' up to strawberry swing. I can't wait until the morning. Wouldn't wanna change a thing. People moving all the time inside a perfectly straight line. Don't you wanna curve away when it's such, it's such a perfect day? It's such a perfect day. Ah, now the sky could be blue, I don't mind. Without you it's a waste of time…Now the sky could be blue, could be gray. Without you I'm just miles away." Coldplay – Strawberry Swing

"Skipping beats, blushing cheeks, I am struggling. Daydreaming bed scenes in the corner café, and I'm left in bits, recovering tectonic trembling. You get me every time. Why'd ya have to be so cute? It's impossible to ignore you. Must you make me laugh so much? It's bad enough we get along so well. Say goodnight and go…One of these days you'll miss your train and come stay with me. (It's always say goodnight and go.) We'll have drinks and talk about things – any excuse to stay awake with you. You'd sleep here, I'd sleep there, but then the heating may be down again (at my convenience). We'd be good – we'd be great together…Say goodnight and go. Oh, why's it always, always goodnight and go? Darlin', not again. Goodnight and go." Imogen Heap – Goodnight and Go

"So she said, 'What's the problem, baby?' What's the problem? I don't know, well, maybe I'm in love! Think about it, every time I think about it, can't stop thinkin' 'bout it! How much longer will it take to cure this? Just to cure it, 'cause I can't ignore it if it's love. Makes me wanna turn around and face me, but I don't know nothin' 'bout love. Come on, come on, turn a little faster. Come on, come on, the world will follow after. Come on, come on, 'cause everybody's after love. So I said I'm a snowball running, running down into the spring that's coming all this love. Melting under blue skies belting out sunlight, shimmering love. Well baby, I surrender to the strawberry ice cream, never-ever-end of all this love. Well I didn't mean to do it, but there's no escaping your love…Come on, come on, move a little closer. Come on, come on, I wanna hear you whisper. Come on, come on, settle down inside my love…Accidentally in love." Counting Crows – Accidentally in Love

"All I know is that you're so nice, you're the nicest thing I've seen. I wish that we could give it a go, see if we could be something. I wish I was your favorite girl, I wish you thought I was the reason you are in the world, I wish my smile was your favorite kind of smile, I wish the way that I dressed was your favorite kind of style. I wish you couldn't figure me out, but you always wanna know what I was about, I wish you'd hold my hand when I was upset. I wish you'd never forget the look on my face when we first met. I wish you had a favorite beauty spot that you loved secretly 'cause it was on a hidden bit that nobody else could see. Basically, I wish that you loved me. I wish that you needed me. I wish that you knew when I said two sugars actually I meant three. I wish that without me your heart would break. I wish that without me you'd be spending the rest of your nights awake. I wish that without me you couldn't eat. I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to sleep. Look, all I know is that you're the nicest thing I've ever seen, and I wish that we could see if we could be something. Yeah I wish that we could see if we could be something…" Kate Nash – Nicest Thing
