"I Need You"
Performed by: LeAnn Rimes
Written by: Dennis Matkosky and Ty Lacy

I need you like water,

There's a freedom in your arms that carries me through I need you.

"Black"
Written by Eddie Vedder

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

In Another's Eyes
By: Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood

In another’s eyes
I’m someone who
Loves her enough
To walk away from you
I’d never cheat
And I would never lie
In another’s eyes

In another’s eyes
I can do no wrong
And he believes in me
And his faith is strong
I’d never fall
Or even compromise
In another’s eyes

In another’s eyes
I’m afraid that I can’t see
This picture perfect portrait
That they paint of me
They don’t realize
And I pray they never do
‘Cause every time I look
I’m seein’ you
In another’s eyes

In another’s eyes
Starin’ back at me
I see a sinkin’ soul
Tryin’ desperately
To turn the tide
Before it dies
In another’s eyes

And what they don’t see
Lord its killing me
It’s blessing and a curse
That love is blind
‘Cause in another’s eyes
I’m afraid that I can’t see
This picture perfect portrait
That they paint of me
And they don’t realize
And I pray to God they never do
‘Cause every time I look
I’m seein’ you
In another’s eyes
