State of Grace (Lyrics) – Taylor Swift

These are the lyrics of the final countdown single by Taylor Swift before the release of her new album, Red, next week. State of Grace is an alternative song about, yes you guessed it, falling in love.

I’m walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
And all we know is touch and go
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love till it hurts or bleeds or fades in time 

And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same

You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannonball
Now all we know... is don't let go
We are alone just you and me
Up in your room, and our slates are clean 
Just twin fire signs, four blue eyes
So you were never a saint
And I’ve loved in shades of wrong
We learn to live with the pain
Mosaic broken hearts
But this love is brave and wild

And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same

This is a state of grace
This is the worthwhile fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right
These are the hands of fate
You're my Achilles heel
This is the golden age of something good and right and real

And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same

This is a state of grace
This is the worthwhile fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together – Taylor Swift (Lyrics)

My review of the song can be found here.

[Verse 1:]

I remember when we broke up the first time,

Saying this is it, I’ve had enough

Cause like we hadn’t seen each other in a month

when you said you needed space, what?

Then you come around again and say baby

I miss you and I swear i’m gonna change, trust me

Remember how that lasted for a day

I say I hate you, we break up, you call me, I love you

[Chorus:] 

Oh Woo-Oh

We called it off again last night

But oh woo-oh, this time I’m telling you, I’m telling you

We are never ever ever getting back together

We are never ever ever getting back together

You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me

But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Like, ever.

[Verse 2:] 

I’m really gonna miss you picking fights

And me falling for it, screaming that I’m right

And you would hide away and find your peace of mind

with some indie record that’s much cooler than mine

[Chorus:] 

Oh, oh, you called me up again tonight

But oh woo-oh-oh, this time I’m telling you, I’m telling you

We are never ever ever getting back together

We are never ever ever getting back together

You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me

But we are never ever ever ever getting back together.

[Bridge:] 

I used to think that we were forever ever

And I used to say never say never

Then he calls me up and he’s like

“I still love you,” and I’m like

this is exhausting, you know, we are never getting back together – like ever.

 [Chorus:]

We are never ever ever getting back together

We are never ever ever getting back together

You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me

But we are never ever ever ever getting back together.

[Outro:] 

Oh Woo-oh oh

You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me

But we are never ever ever ever getting back together.

Cupid’s Got A Shotgun (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

These are the lyrics for Cupid’s Got A Shotgun, off Carrie Underwood’s album “Blown Away.”

[Verse 1:]

Oh he gave up on arrows a long, long time ago
Turns out I’m too hard to hit so he put away his bow
I might just keep on runnin’ from here to Timbuktu
‘Cause he gave up on arrows and I ain’t bulletproof

[Chorus:]
Yeah Cupid’s got a shotgun aiming at my heart
I’ve been dodging bullets, I’ve been hiding in the dark
Sawed-off  double barrel, trigger happy as could be
Cupid’s got a shotgun and he’s pointing it at me

[Verse 2:]
He’s sitting in that treestand and his wings are camouflaged
I’m dug down in my foxhole waiting on his next barrage
Must be open season, got a target on my back
Think he’s throwing love grenades and I’m under attack

[Chorus]
Yeah Cupid’s got a shotgun aiming at my heart
I’ve been dodging bullets, I’ve been hiding in the dark
Sawed-off double barrel, trigger happy as could be
Cupid’s got a shotgun and he’s pointing it at me, yeah

[Bridge]
Well he’s got me in his sights, I’ve got a red dot on my chest
But little does he know I strapped on my Kevlar vest
I pulled out my Remington and I loaded up these shells
He’s about to find out I’m a dang good shot myself

[Chorus]
Yeah Cupid’s got a shotgun aiming at my heart
I’ve been dodging bullets, I’ve been hiding in the dark
Sawed-off double barrel, trigger happy as could be
Cupid’s got a shotgun and he’s pointing it at me

Yeah Cupid’s got a shotgun
But right now he’s running from me, wooh

Who Are You (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

These are the lyrics for Who Are You, off Carrie Underwood’s album “Blown Away.”

[Verse 1:]

Who are you,

the one for whom I’d really gladly suffer

Who are you,

the one I’ll always love above another

You’re my world, you’re my hope, you’re all my dreams and all my heart 

[Chorus:]

Who are you

The one I give my life to

Who are you,

that loves as deep as I do

[Verse 2]

Who are you,

who takes me through the flood and through the fire

Who are you,

who leads me through the desert and the dry

You’re in my thoughts, you know my mind

You are my fate, you are my light

[Chorus:]

Who are you

The one I give my life to

Who are you,

that loves as deep as I do

[Bridge]

You’re my savior, you’re my center

my beginning and my end

You’re the one I live for, you’re my angel

Who are you

You’re in my thoughts (in my thoughts)

You know my mind (you know my mind)

You are my fate, you are my light

[Outro:]

Who are you

The one I give my life to

Who are you,

that loves as deep as I do

Who are you
who fell on me like fire
Who are you,
who takes me through desire
 
Who are you,
The one I give my life to.

Leave Love Alone (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

These are the lyrics of Leave Love Alone, on Carrie Underwood’s new album “Blown Away.” You can check out my review here.

[Verse 1:]

Funny how love can make you feel
Crush you like a ton of steel
Fake you out, make you think it’s real
Funny how love can make you feel, yeah

[Chorus]

Ouh, ouh, yeah
I just can’t leave love alone

I just can’t leave love alone

I just can’t leave love alone

I just can’t leave love alone

Hey!

[Verse 2:]

Ain’t it funny how love can make you fly

Sweetest buzz and the highest high
when you can’t walk to the other side
ain’t it funny how love can make you fly

[Chorus:]

Ouh, I can’t stop it
Ouh, gotta have it, want it,
I can’t help it
I just can’t leave love alone

I just can’t leave love alone

(Can’t leave it alone)

I just can’t leave love alone

I just can’t leave love alone

Hey!

[Outro:]

Oh come on!

Burn me once but it don’t sink in
I just keep coming back again
I just can’t leave love alone
I just can’t leave love alone
I just can’t leave love alone
I just can’t leave, I can’t leave it
I just can’t leave love alone
I just can’t leave love alone
I just can’t leave love alone
I just can’t leave love alone
I can’t leave it alone

I can’t leave it

Good in Goodbye (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

 These are the lyrics for Good in Goodbye off Carrie Underwood’s album “Blown Away.”

[Verse 1:]

I heard you laughing in a crowd outside a restaurant we used to go to

I caught a glimpse that stopped me in my tracks

It took me back

you looked happy with that little girl on your shoulders, happy

I know where she got those crystal eyes of blue

Time’s been sweet to you

[Chorus:]

As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt

I thank God I didn’t get what I thought that I deserved

Sometimes life leads you down a different road

when you’re holding on to someone that you gotta let go

someday you’ll see the reason why

sometimes, yeah sometimes, there’s good in goodbye

[Verse 2:]

I don’t regret it 

the time we had together

I won’t forget it

But we both ended up where we belong

I guess goodbye made us strong

And yeah I’m happy

I found somebody too who makes me happy

And I knew one day I’ll see you on the street

And it’d be bittersweet 

[Chorus:]

As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt

I thank God I didn’t get what I thought that I deserved

Sometimes life leads you down a different road

when you’re holding on to someone that you gotta let go

someday you’ll see the reason why

sometimes, yeah sometimes, there’s good in goodbye

Yeah, yeah

[Outro:]

As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt

I thank God I didn’t get what I thought that I deserved

Sometimes life leads you down a different road

when you’re holding on to someone that you got to let go

someday you’ll see the reason why

Yeah someday you’ll see the reason why

There’s good in goodbye, yeah

There’s good in goodbye

Thank God For Hometowns (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

These are the lyrics for Thank God for Hometowns, off Carrie Underwood’s album “Blown Away.”

[Verse 1:]

Yesterday I got a call

Someone I didn’t know at all passed away

Mama said yeah you know him

you went to school with both his kids

They lived out on Prescott lane

She said you should’ve seen the line

Mrs. Johnson said to tell you hi

[Chorus]

Thank God for hometowns

and all the love that makes you go round

Thank God for the country lines that welcome you back in 

When you were dying to get out

Thank God for Church pews

And all the faces that won’t forget you

Cause when you’re lost in this crazy world

you got somewhere to go and get found

Thank God for hometowns

Yeah

[Verse 2:]

Last June my cousin tied the knot,

Didn’t know if I’d go or not

But I’m sure glad I did

It was a pretty good haul but worth the drive

I could feel myself come back to life

the closer that I’d get

first red light I rollded the windows down

breathed it in and took a look around

[Chorus:]

Thank God for hometowns

First kisses and touchdowns 

Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in

when you were dying to get out

Thank God for Church pews

and all the faces that won’t forget you

And when you’re lost in this crazy world

you got somewhere to go and get found

Thank God for hometowns

Yeah

[Bridge]

I always find another piece of me

walking down these old familiar streets

[Chorus]

thank God for hometowns

and all the love that makes them go round

Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in

when you were dying to get out

Thank God for Church pews

and all the faces that won’t forget you

And when you’re lost in this crazy world

you got somewhere to go and get found

Thank God for hometowns

Thank God for hometowns

One Way Ticket (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

These are the lyrics for One Way Ticket, off Carrie Underwood’s album “Blown Away.”

[Verse 1:]

If you’re tired of your life and the way that you feel

like a fish on a hook,

like a bug on a dirty windshield, it’s ok

It’s time to take your chips and cash them all in

cause it matters where you’re going

not where you been, say hey

Goodbye yesterday

Well if life don’t go your way

Maybe it’s time to take a break,

Yeah, yeah

[Chorus:]

Raise your hands in the air tonight

Put a little love back in your life

Get your feet up, just kick it

We got a one way ticket

sun’s shining bright and it’s meant for us

life is like a ride on a party bus

turn the radio up and sing along with it

we got a one way ticket

[Verse 2:]

So pack up your smile and your new flip flops

We’re headed to a heaven where the beach don’t stop

dance the day and the night away

grab yourself a gal,

grab yourself a fella,

grab yourself a drink with a pink umbrella

Goodbye yesterday

Well if life don’t go your way

Maybe it’s time to take a nice long break,

[Chorus:]

Raise your hands in the air tonight

Put a little love back in your life

Get your feet up, woo, just kick it

We got a one way ticket

sun’s shining bright and it’s meant for us

life is like a ride on a party bus

turn the radio up and sing along with it, eh

we got a one way ticket

[Outro:]

Ou la la la la la

Raise your hands in the air tonight

Raise your hands in the air tonight

Push that clock and call it a day

Say adios to the minimum wage

tell your boss man where he can stick it

We got a one way ticket

Life is so good, it’s sticky sweet

It’s a carnival cotton candy treat

unwrap it like a lollipop, lick it

We got a one way ticket

Nobody Ever Told You (Lyrics) – Carrie Underwood

These are the lyrics of Nobody Ever Told You , off Carrie Underwood’s album “Blown Away.”

[Verse 1:]

Take off all the makeup girl

Shine your light, show the world

Don’t be shy, don’t be scared

You don’t have to hide under there

Let’s throw away all the magazines

Turn off the static on the TV

Wish you could see yourself the way I do

[Chorus:]

Nobody ever told you

Nobody ever told you

You shine like a diamond

Glitter like a gold

And you need to know

when nobody ever told you

Yeah

La la la la la

[Verse 2:]

Mirror mirror on the wall

acting like he knows it all

Tells you lies of vanity

he doesn’t care what’s underneath

All hung up on the negative

doesn’t have to be the way it is

Wish you could see yourself the way I do

[Chorus:]

Nobody ever told you

Nobody ever told you

You shine like a diamond

Glitter like a gold

And you need to know

when nobody ever told you

[Bridge]

Free as a bird,

up on a wire

Just like a flower growing wild

you’re beautiful, you’re beautiful

Nobody ever told you,

nobody ever told you

You shine like a diamond

Glitter like a gold

And you need to know

when nobody ever told you

[Outro:]

You shine like a diamond

Glitter like a gold

And you need to know

when nobody ever told you
