    Name: Dilemma
    .. love you, and I.. need you
    Nelly I.. love you, I do.. neeeeed you - but

    [Chorus]
    No matter WHAT I DO
    ALL I THINK ABOUT is you
    Even when I’m with my Boo
    Boy, you know I’M CRAZY OVER YOU

    No matter WHAT I DO
    ALL I THINK ABOUT is you
    Even when I’m with my Boo
    You know I’M CRAZY OVER YOU.


    2.Singer: Gwen Stefani
    Name: 4 in the morning
    Waking up to find another day
    The moon got lost again last night
    But now the sun has finally had its say
    I guess I FEEL ALRIGHT.
    But it hurts when I think
    When I let it sink in
    It’s all over me
    I’m lying here in the dark
    I’m watching you sleep, it hurts a lot.
    And ALL I KNOW is
    You’ve got to give me everything
    Nothing less cause
    You know I GIVE YOU ALL OF ME.

    Chorus:
    I give you everything THAT I AM
    I’m handin’ over everything THAT I’VE GOT
    Cause I wanna have a really true love
    Don’t ever wanna have to go and give you up
    Stay up till
    Four in the morning and the tears are pouring
    And I want to make it worth the fight
    What have we been doing for all this time?
    Baby if we’re gonna do it, come on do it right.

    ALL I WANTED was to know I’m safe
    Don’t want to lose the love I’VE FOUND
    Remember when you said THAT YOU WOULD CHANGE
    Don’t let me down
    It’s not fair HOW YOU ARE
    I can’t be complete, can you give me more?
    And ALL I KNOW is
    You got to give me everything
    And nothing less cause
    You know I GIVE YOU ALL OF ME.

    Chorus

    Oh please, you know WHAT I NEED
    Save all your love up for me
    We can’t escape the love
    Give me everything THAT YOU HAVE.
    And ALL I KNOW is
    You got to give me everything
    And nothing less cause
    You know I GIVE YOU ALL OF ME.

    Chorus

    (Give you everything)
    (Give you all of me)


    3. Singers or band: Boyzone
    Name: No matter what
    Chorus:
    No matter WHAT THEY TELL US
    No matter WHAT THEY DO
    No matter WHAT THEY TEACH US
    WHAT WE BELIEVE is true

    No matter WHAT THEY CALL US
    However they attack
    No matter WHERE THEY TAKE US
    We'll find out own way back

    I can't deny WHAT I BELIEVE
    I can't be WHAT I'M NOT
    I know I'LL LOVE FOREVER
    I know, no matter what

    If only tears were laughter
    If only night was day
    If only prayers were answered
    Then we would hear God say

    No matter WHAT THEY TELL YOU
    No matter WHAT THEY DO
    No matter WHAT THEY TEACH YOU
    WHAT YOU BELIEVE is true

    Chorus

    And I will keep you safe and strong
    And shelter from the storm
    No matter WHERE IT'S BARREN
    A dream is being born

    No matter WHO THEY FOLLOW
    No matter WHERE THEY LEAD
    No matter HOW THEY JUDGE US
    I'll be everyone YOU NEED

    No matter IF THE SUN DON'T SHINE
    Or IF THE SKIES ARE BLUE
    No matter WHAT THE END IS
    My life began with you

    I can't deny WHAT I BELIEVE
    I can't be WHAT I'M NOT
    I know, I know
    I know THIS LOVE'S FOREVER
    That's all THAT MATTERS now
    No matter what

  3. In song #2:

    I give you everything THAT I AM
    I’m handin’ over everything THAT I’VE GOT

    ...the love I’VE FOUND

    These are adjective clauses that modify nouns (everything/love).

  4. I've been awake for a while now
    You've got me feeling like a child now
    'Cause every time I see your bubbly face
    I get the tingles in a silly place

    IT STARTS IN MY TOES
    AND I CRINKLE MY NOSE
    WHEREVER IT GOES I ALWAYS KNOW
    THAT YOU MAKE ME smile
    Please stay for a while now
    Just take your time
    Wherever you go

    The rain is falling on my window pane
    But we are hiding in a safer place
    Under covers staying dry and warm
    You give me feelings THAT I ADORE


    Wherever it goes
    THEY START IN MY TOES
    MAKES ME CRINKLE MY NOSE
    I always know
    THAT YOU MAKE ME SMILE
    Please stay for a while now
    Just take your time
    Wherever you go

    What am I gonna say
    When you make me feel this way?
    I just, mmm


    IT STARTS IN MY TOES
    AND I CRINCLE MY NOSE
    Wherever it goes
    I always know
    THAT YOU MAKE ME SMILE
    Please stay for a while now
    Just take your time
    Wherever you go

    da do doeo do do do do da
    do da do da do do
    mmmmmm

    I’ve been asleep for a while now
    You tucked me in just like a child now
    'Cause every time you hold me in your arms
    I'm comfortable enough to feel your warmth

    IT STARTS IN MY SOUL
    AND I LOSE ALL CONTROL
    When you kiss my nose
    The feeling shows
    'Cause you make me smile
    Baby just take your time

    1. I love this song, Abdullah, but you've only capitalized (correctly) one noun clause (I always know THAT YOU MAKE ME SMILE)!

  5. "Skyfall"

    This is the end
    Hold your breath and count to ten
    Feel the earth move and then
    Hear my heart burst again

    For this is the end
    I've drowned and dreamt this moment
    So overdue I owe them
    Swept away, I’M STOLEN

    Let the sky fall
    When it crumbles
    We will stand tall
    Face it all together

    Let the sky fall
    When it crumbles
    We will stand tall
    Face it all together
    At skyfall
    That skyfall

    Skyfall IS WHERE WE START
    A thousand miles and poles apart
    Where worlds collide and days are dark
    YOU MAY HAVE MY NUMPER, you can take my name
    But you'll never have my heart

    Let the sky fall (let the sky fall)
    When it crumbles (when it crumbles)
    We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
    Face it all together

    Let the sky fall (let the sky fall)
    When it crumbles (when it crumbles)
    We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
    Face it all together
    At skyfall

    [2x:]
    (Let the sky fall
    When it crumbles
    We will stand tall)

    WHERE YOU GO I go
    WHAT YOU SEE I see
    I know I'd never be me
    Without the security
    Of your loving arms
    Keeping me from harm
    Put your hand in my hand
    And we'll stand

    Let the sky fall (let the sky fall)
    When it crumbles (when it crumbles)
    We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
    Face it all together

    Let the sky fall (let the sky fall)
    When it crumbles (when it crumbles)
    We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
    Face it all together
    At skyfall

    1. YOU MAY HAVE MY NUMPER (this is not a noun clause; it's a main clause).
      Swept away, I'M STOLEN (good passive voice, but his is not a noun clause).

      Here is another noun clause which you didn't capitalize:
      I know [THAT] I'D NEVER BE ME

  6. LOBO- I'D LOVE YOU TO WANT ME

    http://youtu.be/HB8EZ5Xa_QI

    When I saw you standing there
    I about fell off my chair
    When you moved your mouth to speak
    I felt THE BLOOD GO TO MY FEET

    Now it took time for me to know
    WHAT YOU TRIED so not to show
    Something in my soul just cries
    I see the want in your blue eyes

    Chorus :
    Baby, I'd love you to want me
    The way that I WANT YOU
    The way that IT SHOULD BE
    Baby, you'd love me to want you
    The way THAT I WANT TO
    If you'd only let it be

    You told yourself years ago
    You'd never let your feelings show
    The obligation THAT YOU MADE
    For the title THAT THEY GAVE

    Now it took time for me to know.
    WHAT YOU TRIED so not to show.
    But something in my soul just cried
    I see THE WANT IN YOUR BLUE EYES

    Repeat chorus
    Repeat verse 2
    Repeat chorus

    1. Jae Uk,

      Some of these are noun clauses, but most of them are adjective clauses.

      The way THAT I WANT YOU
      the way THAT IT SHOULD BE
      (these are adjective clauses which modify the noun "way")


      I see THE WANT IN YOUR BLUE EYES.
      Is this a clause?

      Let me know WHETHER YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING (OR NOT).
