Pete Yorn, Lose You:

“I don’t need a better thing
I’d settle for less
It’s another thing for me
I just have to wander through this world
Alone” (this lyric wouldn’t be sentimental if not for irony)

John Mayer Trio, Different Kind of Green:

“I don’t need,
another kind of green, to know 
I’m on the right side, with you”

Coldplay, Green Eyes:

“Green eyes, yeah the spotlight, shines upon you
And how could, anybody, deny you

I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter, now I’ve met you
And honey you should know, that I could never go on without you ”

Corinne Bailey Rae, I’d Like To:

“I…I’d…like to put my fingers on you
I…I’d…Like to paint a picture for you”

Barry Louis Polisar, All I Want Is You:

“If I was a flower growin’ wild and free,
All I’d want is you to be my sweet honey-bee

And if I was a tree growin’ tall and green
all I’d want is you to shade me and be my leaves

All I want is you, will you be my bride?
Take me by the hand and stand by my side?

All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like a sea”

John Mayer, Come Back To Bed:

“Your tears on the sheets,
And your footsteps, are down the hall

You can be mad in the morning,
I’ll take back what I said
Just don’t leave me, alone here, it’s cold baby
Come back to bed…Come back to bed.

What will this fix?
You know you’re not, a quick forgive.
And I won’t sleep through this,
I survive on the breath you are finished with

You can be mad in the morning,
Or the afternoon instead,
But don’t leave me….98 and 6 degrees of seperation from you baby
Come back to bed”
