General suggestion: Use the lyrics as a line in your dialogue
Example 01 (Prompt used: "Every waking day, you take my breath away.")
Using this prompt, you can it literally and write a story about a married couple who have been wed for quite some time, preferably with children of their own. Focus on the emotions, thoughts and feelings of being married all these years and still being madly in love.
Example 02 (Prompt used: "As soon as forever is through, I'll be over you.")
You can take this prompt literally as well but you may add a certain twist. An example can be a story about Character 1, who was in love with Character 2 but the romance ended up unrequited. However, the story doesn't end there. Decades or even centuries later, the souls of those two characters are reincarnated and though they are two different people now, their lives intertwine again and Character 1's soul is still in love with Character 2.
Example 03 (Prompt used: "We're starting to show our feelings and people can tell.")
You can write a story about a couple in a secret/forbidden romance, who are having difficulties keeping their feelings hidden when in public. The reason for the secret or forbidden romance is up to you but this reason may be the main conflict of the story. Another idea is a story about two people who have feelings for each other but are afraid to make the next move. It does sound typical so try to think of a twist that can make your story different
