So I spotted an article on ANN while I was looking for opinions on the new SAO CM with Aoi Eir's song .
According to the article the most common phrases in japanese love songs are:
1. "[You're] not alone" ("Hitori janai") tops the poll with 20.6% of the vote.
2. "I want to protect you" ("Kimi-wo mamoritai," 15.6%)
3. "I won't let go of those hands" ("Sono te-wo hanasanai," 8.4%)
4. "If [we] could go back to those days" ("Ano koro-ni modoretara," 7.3%)
5. "I called your name" ("Kimi-no namae-wo yonda," 6.7%)
6. "A feeling I can't express" ("Todokanai omoi," 6.7%)
In Yuki's lyrics the song where one of these phrases shine is "sprinter" with "Im calling your name"
and "Kimi ni aitai" which is probably also a cliche phrase I see alot.
#2 and #3 is very common in OPs of action anime
Nice comment from this thread

If these lyrics are so cliche and cheesy, why do I still cry whenever Homura or Madoka say them? D:
