1. Can you imagine us years from today/Sharing a park bench quietly/How terribly strange to be seventy
2. I wanna be soft and resolved/Clean of slate and released/I wanna forgive for the both of us This Grudge (Alanis Morissette) -starwoman
3. And the reasons, they may change/But what I'm feeling stays the same The Way (Clay Aiken) -xsaebre
4. I think I lost you in another life/A part of me that I left behind/I won't go on without you Perfect Day (Clay Aiken) -xsaebre
5. You are a spirit that knows of no limit/That knows of no ceiling, who baulks at dead ends/You are a wordsmith who cares for his brothers/Not seduced by illusion or fair-weathered friends Knees of my Bees (Alanis Morissette) -starwoman
6. Do you wake up on your own/And wonder where you are/You live with all your faults/I wanna wake up where you are Slide (Goo Goo Dolls) -knitting_girl
7. My tendency to want to run feels unnatural now/The urgency to give to you what I want most feels good Out is Through (Alanis Morissette) -starwoman
8. There's a steel train coming through, I would take it if I could/And I would not lie to you, cause Sunday morning soon will come/When things will be much easier to say Boss DJ (Reel Big Fish) -theo3rd
9. Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime/Let me lead you from your solitude/Share each day with me, each night, each morning/Anywhere you go, let me go too All I Ask of You (Phantom of the Opera) -knitting_girl
10. Oh you're frail now/I couldn't laugh about it/Tragedy sets you free, but/I should have known it from the start Extra Pale (Goo Goo Dolls) -prettyflamingo
11. I am older than I once was/But younger than I'll be/That's not unusual/Though it isn't strange/After changes upon changes, we are more or less the same
12. All I wanna do is make you mine/I've been hurt way too many times When You Say You Love Me (Clay Aiken) -xsaebre
13. And I'll go on now and lead you home and/All because I'm, All because I'm/I'll become what you became to me Black Balloon (Goo Goo Dolls) -prettyflamingo
14. Well I guess I've been in love before/And once or twice have been on the floor/But I've never loved no one the way that I love you
15. I want to wake up in the city that never sleeps/And step around the heart of it (extra points for the version, just take a stab) New York, New York -hollywoodfox still looking for a correct guess at the version!
16. Why no one will help me/I am too dumb, I am too smart/They'll not understand me/I'm lonely, they'll hate me Excuses (Alanis Morissette) -starwoman
17. You're cynical and beautiful, you always make a scene/You're monochrome delerious, you're nothing that you seem Dizzy (Goo Goo Dolls) -prettyflamingo
18. Just you and me at a crossroads then/Ain't it funny how we were old friends/Accidentally thrown together, did we intend/To be the romantic novel you'd never want to end Mansfield (Elton John) -__faintofheart
19. You see all my light/And you love my dark/You dig everything of which I'm ashamed/There's not anything to which you can't relate/And you're still here Everything (Alanis Morissette) -imortalavalamp
20. I never felt too good, but in this world who would/I was always thinking something wasn't right/But then you came along and/Helped me sing a song/And now I feel okay, I hope it can stay this way Good Thing (Reel Big Fish) -__faintofheart
21. And everywhere I look there's something to learn/A sliver of truth from every bridge we burn Birds (Elton John) -sweet_refrain
22. Against the night's bright colors/Against the green of summers/Makes you think all the world's a sunny day Kodachrome (Paul Simon) -hollywoodfox
23. I don't know a soul who's not been battered/I don't have a friend who feels at ease/I don't know a dream that's not been shattered/Or driven to its knees/Oh, but it's alright, it's alright, it's alright/For we lived so well, so long
24. I'd reach for the stars, but I can't find my arms/All this time we've accomplished so much/Why can't I believe, why can't I just feel love Brand New Hero (Reel Big Fish) -prettyflamingo
25. And all my words come back to me/In shades of mediocrity/Like emptiness and harmony/I need someone to comfort me Homeward Bound (Simon and Garfunkel) -knitting_girl
...Wow. That took a surprisingly long time.
