7. Love On Top
“Now everybody asks me why I’m smiling out from ear to ear/(They say love hurts)/But I know/(it’s gonna take the real work)/Nothing’s perfect but it’s worth it/After fighting through my tears and finally you put me first.” It’s hard to pinpoint what makes the lyrics of this song truly special—whether it’s the unforgettable moment when Beyoncé’s baby bump, heralding the arrival of her daughter Blue, made its debut following her performance at the 2011 MTV VMAs, or simply the song’s undeniable brilliance. One thing’s for sure: “Love on Top” will forever remain a vibrant and heartwarming ode inspired by the love of her life.
8. Deja Vu
“Baby seems like everywhere I go I see you/From your eyes I smile, it’s like I breathe you/Helplessly I reminisce, don’t want to/Compare nobody to you.” Genuine love reveals itself when you start recognizing traces of your beloved in everything that surrounds you, just as in the lyrics of this track by Beyonce.
9. End of Time
“I’ll be your friend/I will love you so deeply/I will be the one to kiss you at night/I will love you until the end of time.” The foundation of their strong bond lies in their friendship with each other. It is well known how Beyonce and Jay Z melded their love and grew closer as friends and remained steadfast despite being parents to three beautiful children.
10. Part II (On The Run)
