These aren't in any particular order. I think there probably is a correct order, but I haven't bothered to try to figure it out. I do know a couple of the ones that go last, though! :-)

"I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be? Will it be yes or will it be sorry?"
Standing Still, Jewel
"Do you love me like I love you? ... Are you passing me by?"
Here Without You, Three Doors Down
Possession, Sarah McLachlan
"and I would be the one to hold you down, kiss you so hard. I'll take your breath away..."

this one goes last...

So Far Away, Carole King
"you're so far away - doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore? It would be so fine to see your face at my door..."
I'm not so crazy about this one, but I really like the chorus:
All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
- Again, Lenny Kravitz
You can listen to a sample of any of these at iTunes, or maybe Amazon. You'd have to download the software and set up an account at iTunes, but you can definitely find all of them. Amazon won't necessarily have samples for all of them, but you don't need any special software or an account...
