Spread the meme if you so wish.

1. It may be a long way home/But the path I take's my own/I'm not waiting for my destiny

 

2. Heaven and earth do sleep/ Still in the dark so deep, / I will the darkness sweep

3. You can sleep in my arms; you don't have to explain/When you're heart's crying out, baby, whisper my name - If That's What It Takes, Celine Dion

4. An arrow of freedom/Is piercing my heart/Breaking chains of emotion/Give a moment to pray/For lost innocence to find its way

5. If you make mistakes/You can't let me down/I will still believe/I won't turn around

6. Le rhum aux hommes attendrit les bras/Le rire aux femmes, aux filles, aux eclats/Les nuits velours ici bas/Les memes a Panama, memes a Cuba/L'amour a faim de toi et vice versa

7. I'll wear your pearls more precious than silver/I'll wear your pearls so close to my skin 

8. Let me dive in/To pools of sin/Wet black leather on my skin/Show me the floor/Lay down the law/I need to taste you more - Once in a Lifetime, Sarah Brightman

9. I'm not hungry, no I'm overfed/Satisfied with the life I've led/Moving on, to where you can't see/What is me/Well, it's just for me

10. You'll change your mind and call my name/Soon as you find they're all the same/And when you find yourself alone/Don't come back crying/You should have known - Someday, Mariah Carey

11. E una musa che ci invita/a sfiorarla con le dita/attraverso un pianoforte/le morte e lontana/io vivo per lei

12. I like the feel of my name on your lips/and I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss/The way your fingers run through my hair/and how your scent lingers even when you're not there

13. Now her mother collects cut-outs/And the pictures make her smile/But if she saw behind the curtains/It could only make her cry/She's got hand prints on her body/Sad moonbeams in her eyes/Not so innocent a child

14. Follow your dreams/Be yourself, an angel of kindness/Back to a place you once knew/I believe, I believe, I believe in you

15. There's a heart that must be free to fly/That burns with the need to know a reason why/Why must we all conceal/What we think/How we feel/Must there be a secret me/I'm forced to hide? - Reflection, Christina Aguilera

16. A thousand dreams I still believe/I'd make you give them all to me/I'd hold you in my arms and never let go/I surrender

17. This world keeps on spinning/Only she stills my heart/She's my inspiration/She's my northern star - In Her Eyes, Josh Groban

18. I don't need eyes to see/The love you bring to me/No matter where I go/And I know that you'll be there/Forever more a part of me, you're everywhere/I'll always care

19. Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world/ Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before/ Let your soul take you where you long to go/ Only then can you belong to me - Music of the Night, from Phantom of the Opera (Fave version: Sarah Brightman)

20. You are the air that I breathe./ You're the ground beneath my feet./ When did I stop believing? - My Confession, Josh Groban

(A helpful hint: look at the meme above. All the artists have at least one song of theirs quoted. BTW, I didn't feel like doing a whole internet search for lyrics, so I just used the booklets from my own CDs, which means there are a couple of artists that have more than one song quoted.)
