Kelly Clarkson Shares Lyrics to “My Life Would Suck Without You”

UPDATE 2: The name of Kelly’s album, according to her publicist, is NOT Masquerade.   More details will be forthcoming…

UPDATE:   This blog is reporting that the album title is All I Ever Wanted rather than Masquerade, as reported by the Wall Street Journal.   A few Katy Perry tunes are rumored to be on the album, including one called “Long Shot”.   Also, rumor has it that the Daughtry duet is on, and it’s called “Temporary.”   Check out the lyrics to the title track in comments HERE.   All rumors, kids. More will be revealed very soon, I’m sure…

Curiosity peaked when the cover of Kelly Clarkson’s new single, “My Life Would Suck Without You” hit the net.

Now we have one more piece of the puzzle. Song lyrics have been leaked to AOL’s PopEater blog, and you can check them out after the jump.

The song is written by hitmakers Max Martin and Dr. Luke–they also   produced the track–and Claude Kelly.

“My Life Would Suck Without You” is the first single off of Kelly’s upcoming album, Masquerade. The record is due on March 17 (Although Z100 seems to think it’s March 24).

The jist of the message is the standard pop theme–”can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em.”

What do you think of the lyrics?

‘My Life Would Suck Without You’

Guess this means you’re sorry
You’re standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
What you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you’d never come back
But here you are again

Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you

Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for tryin’ to pick a fight
I know that I’ve got issues
But you’re pretty messed up too
Anyway, I found out I’m nothing without you

Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you

Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn’t miss you, but I can’t let go
Oh yeah

Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you

    There’s a snatch of it I think and it sounds like SUBG but I’m not really sure. I was just creeped out by Clive and enchanted at the thought that when Jason Mraz grows up, he’ll probably look like Dr. Luke. :biggrin_wp:

  • Hee, I didn’t know Dr. Luke looked like that, he’s cute. Bill Maher? Why… Are they using this song as an example of songs with sucky lyrics can still become hits?

    This is Aranda’s version of All I Ever Wanted.

  • wrong thread, sorry

  • This song was written by the Oklahoma band ARANDA. Now maybe I’m biased b/c I’ve been watching them play for years, but this song is great. It’s one of my favorites off their recent album and when they said Kelly Clarkson found them on myspace and would be recording it on her next album, i thought it sounded perfect for her. Go check them and their version of this song out on their myspace page (/aranda). You wont be sorry and you’ll get a preview of Kelly’s new song. Reading the lyrics just doesn’t do it justice.

  • Here’s the REAL n”All i ever Wanted” lyrics. the ones above had some small but important errors.

    All I Ever Wanted

    Tear up the photographs
    But yesterday wonà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t let go
    Every day every day every minute
    Here comes the emptiness
    Just canà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t leave lonely alone
    Every day every day hey hey
    This second-chancinà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s really getting me down
    You give and takin everything I dreamed about
    Ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s time you let me know let me know just let go

    All I ever wanted all I ever wanted
    Was a simple way to get over you
    All I ever wanted all I ever wanted
    Was an in-between to escape this desperate scene
    Where every lie reveals the truth
    Baby cause I all ever wanted
    All I ever wanted was you

    Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢d rather walk alone
    Donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t wanna chase you around
    Every day every day every minute
    I’d fall a thousand times
    Before I let you drag me down
    Every day every day hey hey
    Your new beginning was a perfect ending
    But I keep feeling weà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ve already been here before
    Ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s time you let me know let me know just let go

    All I ever wanted all I ever wanted
    Was a simple way to get over you
    All I ever wanted all I ever wanted
    Was an in-between to escape this desperate scene
    Where every lie reveals the truth
    Baby cause all ever wanted
    All I ever wanted was you

    Tell me with so many out there
    Why I always turn to you
    Your goodbyes tear me down every time
    And ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s so easy to see that the blame is on me
