Christina Perri – A Thousand Years Lyrics 14 years ago
This song is about the waiting part of a relationship, I think.

Here's a video of Christina Perri talking about it:

Jason Aldean – Don't You Wanna Stay? Lyrics 14 years ago
It's pretty self-explanitory and could be about the couple just coming together, or being reunited after being apart.

I really hate to let this moment go
Touching your skin and your hair falling slow
When a goodbye kiss feels like this

They have to leave each other, but they don't want to. They want to stay together forever.

Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
We could make forever feel this way
Don't you wanna stay?

Regina Spektor – The Call Lyrics 14 years ago
Whether it was written for the movie or not, i'm going with my own interpretation. This is one of my favorite songs and fits so many situations.

It fits the story of two of my characters' relationship:

They became fast friends after meeting, but were hesitant to show their affection. Things get pretty intense in the story, and someone dies in his place at the end of the year. The next year, she has to leave him to find her father, but she was deceived and he and their friends come to rescue her. They escape and danger only seems to come into their lives more and more often following then. The next year, their relationship is severed and complicated. The following year, he leaves for the war and she is separated from him and stays behind, but has to leave home to seek refuge from an invasion. They become reunited about a month later, and continue to face peril... That's as much as i've written, but it's so amazing! I love it :)

Sara Bareilles – Uncharted Lyrics 14 years ago
I think this song is conveying the message that she just wants to go her own way: a path that is her own; uncharted.

Too much to hold, everybody has to
Get their hands on gold
And I want uncharted

Everyone seems to go for the same thing and follow similar paths, but she wants something different.

I know I'm getting nowhere
When I only sit and stare like

She's not getting anywhere while living the life she's leading.

I won't go as a passenger, no
Waiting for the road to be laid
Though I may be going down
I'm taking flame over burning out

She's going to do her own thing, be independent, and take initiative. She's going to make her own choices and take her own path.

Compare
where you are to where you want to be, and you'll get
Nowhere

Their way isn't taking them anywhere.

I'm going down
Follow if you want
I won't just hang around
Like you'll show me where to go

She doesn't know exactly where she's going, but she knows she wants to go there because she knows the alternative, which will take her nowhere.
