More flotsam

I never posted attributions for these, so here they are:
I'm blue == "Blue" Eiffel 65
Accroches-toi == "Hold on Tight" ELO
I can see that you look confused == "Decent Days And Nights Lyrics" The Futureheads
I only know because I carry you around == "The Background" Third Eye Blind
I'm not meant to live alone == "A House Is Not A Home" Luther Van Dross
The name of this tune is == "Mississippi Goddam" Nina Simone
Earthbound == "EarthBound" Rodney Crowell
And I know that I need to change == "How Far is Heaven?" Los Lonely Boys
**********************************************************
Yes, these are harder: no line divisions.

I'm alive, so alive...your hair is long and brown...And you don't come from this town.
...
The things, you say. Your purple prose just gives you away....You burden me with your problems by telling me more than mine.
...
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes 'cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose--then you really might know.
...
I can see all obstacles in my way; gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
...
I bet you're singing proud. Oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd.
...
Did I ever say, how I feel about you, a thing I never found that easy to do? The things that you do, don't need to be heard.
...
Could everyone agree that no one should be left alone.
...
Slingshot in my back pocket track bumpin with a rocket, battle rocks by my side.
...
The madness that you feel will soon subside, so in a word, don't shed a tear. I'll be here when it all gets weird.
...
I'm gonna live forever. I'm gonna learn how to fly, high.
...
The world was on fire; no one could save me but you. Strange what desire will make foolish people do. I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you, and I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you. No, I don't want to fall in love.
...
So needless to say I'm odds and ends, but that's me, stumbling away slowly learning that life is O.K. Say after me, "It's no better to be safe than sorry."
...
There are those who can live with the things they don't believe in; they are giving up their lives for something that is less than it can be.
...
Stop in the hurry of Christmas and listen for the angels' song.
...
Oh, baby, baby, baby: if we got married, would that be cool?
