Save the World: "Our love is even stronger than God hoped it could be"
TYFLM: Most of the song especially "When I couldnt fly, you gave me wings"
AALY: "Weve been to hell and back again, but through it all.........", and most of the rest of the song.

For me the classic BJ love songs were Bed of Roses, Always, Lie to Me, even I'll be there for You(although it had its fair share of cheese). It just seems to me that when they are writing these new songs they are on auto pilot or reading from a book of cliches. To be honest I cringe at some of the lyrics and this tendancy for "heaven/hell" and flying is a bit childish. Again I do like Bounce and Crush and I'm not trying to be negative about the band but to me its a worrying trend. Anyone agree/disagree?
