Lyrics That Rock Part I


From now on, I will bring you lyrics from albums I think you should get. The first group of songs are from broadway-Tony Award winning and grammy nominated artist Heather Headley. One from her old Album and One from her newest One.

Here we go
From her 2002 Debut "This is Who I am "Album here is "If it wasn't for your Love"
"If It Wasn't For Your Love"

Would I be standing here
After all these years
Among the stars above
Maybe not, if it wasn't for your love
Smiling faces all around
Like when a king that has just been crowned
A battle has been won
That I'd have lost
If it wasn't for you love
A fairy tale unfolds
More true than stories I've been told
At last my chance to shine
And all in perfect time
The life I once dreamed of
Who'd have thought
If it wasn't for your love
And oh the wonderful surprise
To have a light so bright it blinds my eyes
And finally I see, how it feels to live a dream
But would I have touched the sky
Ever flown so high
No not I, if it wasn't for your love

Now from her 2006 Album "In my mind" comes "Am I Worth It?"
"Am I Worth It"

I'm laying here in my bed, staring at the ceiling
Imagining that you're here . . . holding me,
See to have your heart in my possession would mean everything,
But would you rather live loveless, or will you live for me and . . .
What would you give, and
What would it take, for
You to show me, that, I'm worth all the love
Every tear
Will you fight for me until you win
I need to know
Am I worth it?
Now I wanna' give you my all, but I don't know if it's too soon,
See the heart doesn't understand time, it just does what it wants to
See to have your heart in my possession would mean everything
But would you rather live loveless or would you live for me and . . .
What would you give, and
What would it take, for
You to show me, that, I'm worth all the love
Every tear
Will you fight for me until you win
I need to know
Am I worth it?
Would you climb the highest mountain?
Would you swim the deepest sea?
Would you put your life on the line?
I need to know, would you do this for me?
Am I worth the late night phone call?
When you really wanna' be asleep
Am I worth you giving it your all?
'Cause you're worth it to me
What would you give, and
What would it take, for
You to show me, that, I'm worth all the love
Every tear
Will you fight for me until you win
I need to know
Am I worth it?
