You can send us in a xml-format the information about your base and we will mark the correlations by ourselves. You can look here what is xml. The demands to the format are below. If you face some technical problems, do not bother to address us, we will eagerly help you.
Just send your information (in the format specified) and we will mark the correlations. "link from allthelyrics.com<=> the text of the song page at yours". Look for the xml-file format below.

Tips:
If you do not know the name of the album, use "unknown". For example:
<artist name="Pink Floyd">
<album name="Unknown">
<lyrics name="See Saw" url=""/>
<lyrics name="A Saucerful Of Secrets" url=""/>
...
If you create xml-file "manually", do not forget that the <, > and " symbols are not to occur in the value of the attributes. It is dificult to imagine that these symbols were in use in the song title or in URL-thus that is not a problem. If they are needed, you are to escape them with the reversed slash (e.g.name="American \< Life").
Add any additional attributes if you have such information. For example, if you know the order of the songs' succession and the year of the album release, you can mention that.
...
<album name="American Life" year="2003" >
<lyrics number="1" name="American Life" url="http://mysite.com/path/to/lyrics/"/>
<lyrics number="2" name="Hollywood" url="http://mysite.com/path/to/lyrics"/>
