"Only You Can Love Me This Way" by Keith Urban
Well I know there's a reason
And I know there's a rhyme
We were meant to be together
That's why
We can role with the punches
We can stroll hand in hand
And when I say it's forever you understand
That you're always in my heart
Always on my mind
And when it all becomes too much
You're never far behind
And there's no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
'Cause only you can love me this way
I could have turned a different corner
I could have gone another place
Then I'd never had this feeling
That I feel today
And you're always in my heart
You're always on my mind
When it all becomes too much
You're never far behind
And there's no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
'Cause only you can love me this way
And you're always in my heart
You're always on my mind
And when it all becomes too much
You're never far behind
And there's no one that comes close to you
Could ever take your place
'Cause only you can love me this way
Only you can love me this way
This song is about his partner and how only she can love him the way he loves her. Keith Urban mainly writes about love and heartbreak. He is arguably one of the most heartfelt country singers.His songs pay more attention to love and heartbreak. Alos, to life experiences and his opinions/views on things. The lyrics "And you're always in my heart/You're always on my mind." show that this person/his partner is always gonna be his love and he can't stop thinking about them. Also, "And there's no one that comes close to you/ Could ever take your place/ 'Cause only you can love me this way" shows alliteration in his lyrics. His songs show good examples of poetic devices and show great tone. Also, his tone helps to show the feeling he has in his voice and the pain or feeling he has.

Song Analysis #1
Help Me Remember By Rascal Flatts
I know that you're leavin'
As soon as the sun
Comes through the window
There's no talking this over
The damage is done
There's just too much hurt
Too much to forgive
Oh, but we both know
We were'nt always like this
CHORUS
Help me remember
The way that we used to be
When nothin' else mattered
"cause you were lovin' me
Just for the night, one last time
One more good memory
When I look back
That's what I wanna see
Oh, help me remember
Those days that were so good
Those nights that we held
Held on forever
When we weren't pretenders
We were as real as we felt
Oh, I don't want to fight anymore
Don't want the last thing I hear tonight
To be a slammin' door
Baby, let it be like before
Repeat Chorus
This could be the last time
I look in your eyes
Help me remember
The way that it used to be
When nothin' else mattered
'Cause you were lovin' me
Oh, help me remember
Oh, help me, help me
Oh, oh, oh, oh-

"Oh, help me remember/Those days that we held/ Held on forever/ When we weren't pretenders/ We were as real as we felt/ Oh, I don't want to fight anymore/ Don't want the last thing I hear tonight/ To be a slammin' door/ Baby, let it be like before".
