Kelly Clarkson - Thankful Album Lyrics



Kelly Clarkson - Thankful Lyrics






The Trouble With Love Is

Love can be a many splendored thing
Can't deny the joy it brings
A dozen roses, diamond rings
Dreams for sale and fairy tales
It'll make you hear a symphony
And you just want the world to see
But like a drug that makes you blind
It'll fool ya every time

The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger than your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See you've got no say at all

Now I was once a fool it's true
I played the game by all the rules
But now my world's a deeper blue
I'm sadder but I'm wiser too
I swore I'd never love again
I swore my heart would never mend
Said love wasn't worth the pain
But then I hear it call my name

The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger than your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See you've got no say at all

Every time I turn around
I think I've got it all figured out
My heart keeps callin'
And I keep on fallin'
Over and over again
The sad story always ends the same
Me standin' in the pourin' rain
It seems no matter what I do
It tears my heart in two

The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger than your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See you've got no say at all

Miss Independent

Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance
Miss unafraid
Miss out of my way
Miss don't let a man interfere, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'd never ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love

What is the feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise, It's time
To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No more the need to be defensive
Goodbye, old you
When love is true

Miss guarded heart
Miss play it smart
Miss if you want to use that line you better not start, no
But she miscalculated
She didn't want to end up jaded
And this miss decided not to miss out on true love
So, by changing her misconceptions
She went in a new direction
And found inside she felt a connection
She fell in love.

What is the feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise, It's time
To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No more the need to be defensive
Goodbye, old you
When love is true

When Miss Independence walked away
No time for love that came her way
She looked in the mirror and thought today
What happened to miss no longer afraid?
It took some time for her to see
How beautiful love could truly be
No more talk of why can't that be me
I'm so glad I finally see

What is the feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise, It's time
To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No more the need to be defensive
Goodbye, old you
When love is true

Low

Everybody's talking, but they don't say a thing, they look at me with
sad eyes by I don't want the sympathy. It's cool you didn't want me,
sometimes you can't go back, but why did you go and make a mess
like that. I just have to say before I let go....

Corse:
Have you ever been low?
Have you ever had a man that let you down so,
When the truth came out,
You were the last to know,
Where you left out in the cold,
Cuz what you did was low

No I don't need your number, there's nothing left to say, even though
I never new it hurt this much to be saved. My friends are outside wait-
ing. I gotta go....

Corse sing 2x

Some Kind Of Miracle

Some Kind of Miracle

Prayed for an angel
to come in the night
and turn some sweet light on me
Found only strangers
then you came to me

Just when I'd given up
you gave me love
myworld was tumbling down
you turned it around

Chorus
Baby you....are
you're some kind of miracle
Baby you....are
you're a miracle to me

Sweet revelation
that look in your eyes
your touch in the night
I found the sweetest salvation
in your arms baby

Warm as the morning sun
your tender love (your tender love)
came and just lifted me up
look what you've done

Baby you....are
You're some kind of miracle
Baby you.....are
You're a miracle to me

You've brought joy to my heart
I found love in your arms
see what you've done to me
you've sey my soul so free
You came and you gave me the love that I need

You....are
You're some kind of miracle
Baby you....are
You're a miracle
A miracle
To me

Baby you are
A miracle to me

Whats Up Lonely

Oooh

I'm gettin' kinda close to you
Like a shadow I can't lose (he-ey-ey)
You've been hanging with me everyday (ay-ay)
Now your getting in my way-yeahh

I know you understand me
But don't you think that maybe
It's time to move on

What's up lonely
Seems your my only friend who wants to share my pain
Tell me heartache
What it gonna take
For you to leave me alone today

Just when I think that your gone
Your in the mirror looking back at me

So whats up lonely

Sometimes, i wish you weren't by my side,
can't you find another shoulder cause i
i wanna leave this broken heart behind,
we're both waisten to much time

Find someone else to rain on,
i'm really gettin tired of singin this sad song

whats up lonely, seems your my only
friend who wants to
share my pain
Tell me heartache
whats it gonna take
for you to leave me alone today

just when i think that your gone
your in the mirror lookin back at me
so whats up lonely

don't wanna give you a reason, to hang around anymore
you won't be hurtin my feelins
if you find another broken heart you can lean on

Gotta go, gotta move on
Gotta go, gotta move on
just leave me alone

What's up lonely
Seems you're my only friend
Who wants to share my pain
Tell me heartache
What's it gonna take?
For you to leave me alone today
Just when i think that you're gone, yea
You're in the mirror lookin back at me
So what's up lonely?

Gotta go, gotta move on
Gotta go, gotta move on
Hey, yea, hey

What's up lonely
Seems you're my only friend
Who wants to share my pain
Tell me heartache
What's it gonna take?
For you to leave me alone today
Just when i think that you're gone, yea
You're in the mirror lookin back at me
So what's up lonely?

Just Missed The Train

Roll over baby
The time has come
To make a little bit more room
I've hung around you
It's getting tough
I think I'm gonna break down soon
Cuz I remember
Crying in the park
It was getting dark
Suddenly I looked up
You were my sky

So go on
And sleep darlin
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool baby
It doesn't matter anyway
Well I'm so sorry
We got to the station a little too late
Such a shame
We just missed the train
We just missed the train

Be quiet angel
Don't make a sound
Save it for a rainy day
Oh can't you see me
I'm such a mess
Trying hard to find my way
Do you remember wasting all the time
We were feeling fine
Though we couldn't walk a line,
We were all right

So go on
And sleep darlin
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool baby
It doesn't matter anyway
Well I'm so sorry
We got to the station a little too late
Such a shame
We just missed the train

Oh why'd that train just pass us by
Didn't anyone see we were stuck at the light
And we would've made it on time

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

So sleep darlin
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool baby
It doesn't matter anyway
Well I'm so sorry
We got to the station a little too late
And sleep darlin
Why don't you pretend we were just a dream
It's cool baby
It doesn't matter anyway
Well I'm so sorry
We got to the station a little too late
Such a shame
We just missed the train

Beautiful Disaster

He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He's as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I try to save him
My whole world would cave in
It just ain't right
Lord, it just ain't right

Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
He's such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Lord, would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
But do I try to change him
So hard not to blame him
Hold me tight
Baby, hold me tight

Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
He's such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm searching for some kind of miracle
Waited so long
Waited so long

He's soft to the touch
But frayed at the end he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can take

Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
He's such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's beautiful
Lord, he's so beautiful
He's beautiful

Anytime

Anytime you feel like you just can't hold on
Just hold on to my love and I'll help you be strong
But you're so afraid to lose, and baby I can't reach your heart
I can't face this world that's keeping us apart
When I can be the one to show you
Everything you missed before
Just hold on now, cause I could be the one to give you more
Let you know

Anytime you need love baby I'm on your side (hey)
Just let me be the one I can make it alright (I can make it alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart

And I can't help but want you more than I want to
So baby take all of your fears, and cast them all on me
'Cause all I ever wanted was just to make you see
That I could be the one to give you
All that you've been searching for
Just hold on to my love, and baby let me give you more
You know, anytime

A Moment Like This

What if I told you it was all meant to be
Would you believe me
Would you agree
It's almost that feelin'
We've met before
So tell me that you don't think I'm crazy
When I tell you love has come here now

A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Ohh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Everything changes
But beauty remains
Something so tender
I can't explain
Well I maybe dreamin'
But 'till I awake
Can we make this dream last forever
And I'll cherish all the love we share

A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Ohh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Could this be the greatest love of all
I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall
So let me tell you this

Some people wait a lifetime

For a moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Ohh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Ohh!
Like this!

Ohh!
I can't believe it's happening to me!

Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Ohh
Like this

Before Your Love

I wonder how I ever made it through a day
How did I settle for the world in shades of gray
When you go in circles all the scenery looks the same
And you don't know why
And I looked into your eyes
Where the road stretched out in front of me
And I realized

I never lived
Before your love
I never felt
Before your touch
I never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really livin'
I never lived
Before your love

I wanted more than just an ordinary life
All of my dreams seemed like castles in the sky
I stand before you and my heart is in your hands
And I don't know how
I survived without your kiss
'Cuz you've given me a reason to exist

I never lived
Before your love
I never felt
Before your touch
I never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really livin'
I never lived
Before your love

I never lived
Before your love

And I don't know why
Why the sun decides to shine
But you breathed your love into me just in time

I never lived
Before your love
I never felt
Before your touch
I never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living
I never lived

I never lived

BEFORE YOUR LOVE!
