Let's just take our time
There's nothing else to do
What better way to spend the night
Than wasting it with you
The moon has won the war
The daylight waits to end
Stay here by my side
We'll watch the struggle start again
chorus
I need you now and forever
So stay right here with me
Don't ever leave
Love was kept from me like a secret
And I swore that I was through
Until you, until you
The city settles down
I watch you as you sleep
There's a silent celebration for
Every breath you breathe
Now this all makes sense
With you as company
I left all I knew and found
A better part of me, yeah
chorus
The time it took to find you
I would
Wait again my baby
The feelings that
I feel with you now, yeah
chorus
She drives down on Sunset
With the windows down
Just so she can let it in
She knows he's far-gone now
But there still are pieces
Pieces there still left of him
He uses love like a bullet from a gun
She's careful like a surgeon
Everywhere he goes they all know to run
But she can't help but love him
Love him
There is a picture sitting by her bed
Her reflection in his face
She has been meaning, meaning to move it
But it's always been his place
He uses love like a bullet from a gun
She's careful like a surgeon
Everywhere he goes they all know to run
But she can't help but love him
Love him
City of angels, everyone is sleeping
4 am and she's awake
She is moving, moving that picture
Someone else will fill that space
On a night like this,
I could fall in love, I could fall in love with you
In this dark so dense, we talk so soft
The way young lovers do.
The day's last sigh
Turns a cool night's breeze
And this love hangs thick like these willow leaves
I’ve hid myself away from this
But your silhouette is a Judah's kiss
On a night like this
The moon sits still and the stars are are watching too
The way you move Is a lullaby
I could fall in love with you
The day's last sigh
Turns a cool night breeze
And this love hangs thick like these willow leaves
I’ve hid myself away from this
But your silhouette is a Judah's kiss
On a night like this
There's nothing fancy bout the way i love you,
There's nothing you could not find in any other man.
There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
But I love you as hard as I can.
There's no good reason for the way you love me,
But you're my walking dream come true.
There's no good reason for the way you love me,
But I thank God that you do.
I don't know the perfect conversation,
I don't know the way to turn a head,
I don't know the perfect way to prove my love,
But I know I'll love you till I'm dead.
There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
It's as simple as the stars in the sky, and the blue in the sea.
There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
When you say you love me,
It's something I can feel.
Your words like fire
Melt my heart of steel.
Only you do this to me.
So let's take two and turn us into three.
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Tell me baby,
What I can do
To take the love you give
And give it back to you.
Break it down, let me know.
Point your finger and baby, I will go.
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
The sun will go down,
The tides will change.
It seems that nothing stays the same.
But you and me baby,
We're breaking rules.
We're leaving lonely to the fools.
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Cause I can't grow tired of your love
Baby, something is happening here
Though it's not perfectly clear, I think I like it
Baby, my heart and brain can't agree
On the status between you and me
And where we're standing
And I can't tell you what it is but
It's the best thing that I found yeah
The butterflies in my stomach
And my feet off the ground
So for now I'm saying, let's just call this love
Let's just call this love
Maybe, I'm over reacting a bit
Blame it on all this and quit
And start all over
Maybe, you might just feel the same way
Practicing both of our names
Just to giggle
And I can't tell you what it is
But it's the best thing that I found you
The butterflies in my stomach
And my feet off the ground
For now I'm just saying, let's just call this love
Let's just call this love
We will have love, we will have pain
There will be days and days and days that feel the same
We will have fear, we will have joy
There maybe little girls and little boys
We will have friends, we will have peace
There will be nights of lights and music till you sleep
We will be strong though we were still weak
We live through so much more than we could take
Amen, Amen
With the dawn the love began again
Amen, Amen
What is done and yet to come, Amen
We will have hope, we will have doubt
There will be memories we could never live without
We will have tears but there will be grace
There will be prayers that we never thought we'd pray
Amen, Amen
With the dawn the love began again
Amen, Amen
What is done and yet to come, Amen
In the sun or the storm, the flood or the flame
When everything's wrong, when I'm the one to blame
When heartache grow old, I swear I'll say
I'll say Amen, Amen
With the dawn the love began again
Amen, Amen
What is done and yet to come, Amen
Amen, Amen
Tell me everything
'Cause I can see it in your eyes
There's a story there these tears won't tell me why
Oh and don't be strong
Isn't that what got you here
Wanderin' in this dark alone
Among your fears
Let me know what I can do
To bear this weight here with you
You do the same for me
Oh you do the same
You're the blood when my heart won't beat
Oh you do the same
So I hold the light in this night
So your eyes can see
You do the same for me
This circumstance
It is such a common thing
We're all butterflies
With broken wings
Let me know what I can do
To bear this weight here with you
You do the same for me
Oh you do the same
You're the blood when my heart won't beat
Oh you do the same
So I hold the light in this night
So your eyes can see
You do the same for me
Life will never leave us alone
So I'll never leave you alone
You do the same for me
Oh you do the same
You're the blood when my heart won't beat
Oh you do the same
And I hold the light in this night
So your eyes can see
You do the same for me
I got a head full of dreams
And time here to scheme
This ain't good
I'm thinking, you know
About what did and didn't go
Like it should
All of these expectations
Just mean my heart'll be breaking
Why can't I see?
You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Even when there's way too much
Even when I'm down to dust
I troubled with time
But it's will was not mine
There was no slowin', where it was going
The wishes I willed
All came back unfulfilled
I was praying, without patience
All of those expectations
Just meant my heart was breaking
Why can't I see?
You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Even when's there's way too much
Even when I'm down to dust
I keep calm, carry on
Like nothing ever went wrong
That's what I'm gonna do
Laugh it off, move on
Get back where I belong
Live my life by leaning on you
You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane
You give me what I need
Even when it's way too much
Call me courageous,
Cause that's what I'm trying to be.
And break through this silence,
That's breaking it's way through me.
Without you I'm a sinner,
Without you I'm a saint.
Without you I can do it,
Without you I just can't.
What am I gonna do without you by my side?
Speak to me somehow,
A word's all I need to hear.
To call for the sunlight,
That left when you disappeared.
Without you I'm a sinner,
Without you I'm a saint.
Without you I can do it,
Without you I just can't.
Baby, we are lying here
Pretending that we're both asleep
I can hear your broken heart
And every single breath you breathe
It's hard to find the words to say
When we both hurt like this
I close my eyes and pray
Time will heal what we're bound to miss
No one can ever say
Why it goes this way
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
It seems for every one we win
There's another three we lose
We've waited for the answer here
Only just to leave confused
You know you're forever mine
And baby, I'm forever yours
I've waited in the darkest rooms
Waiting on the open door
No one can ever say
Why it goes this way
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
We've been so long wishing for things
We just keep forgetting that we
Got all we'll ever need in you and me
Everything we have, anything we got
It was given baby, it was given baby
There ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
I said don't you ever leave me lonely baby
You didn't know what to say
Now you got me worried bout the future baby
Doubt I see upon your face
Sometimes yeah we move just like a freight train
And sometimes we don't even move
Somehow we're stuck around the circle
Where you wait on me
I wait on you
Well love ain't got to be something complicated
It can be as easy as it seems
So tell me if we're hot or cold baby
Just save me from the inbetween
Monday, we're smiling and we're laughing
Tuesday, won't return my calls
Wednesday, I'm tearin up your pictures baby
Thursday night we're havin a ball
Love ain't got to be something complicated
It can be as easy as it seems
So tell me if we're hot or cold baby
Just save me from the inbetween
Give me proof we're going forward
And you know I won't ignore it.
I just need to know what's goin on.
If you like this indecision,
Well I hate to cause division,but I'm gone.
Baby I'm gone.
Love ain't got to be something complicated
It can be as easy as it seems
So tell me if we're hot or cold baby
Just save me from the in...
Said love ain't got to be something complicated
It can be as easy as it seems
So tell me if we're hot or cold baby
You would have kept those words there on your tongue,
If you had known the hurt they had done.
While your fists stay by your side,
Your words bruise me deep inside.
I'd rather have sticks and stones than the words you say to me,
Cause bruises heal and cuts will seal but your words beat the life from me.
Sometimes your words are thick as lead,
You swing them strong upside my head.
But what hasn't killed has made me strong,
So i'll take my scars and move along.
I'd rather have sticks and stones than the words you say to me,
Cause bruises heal and cuts will seal but your words beat the life from me.
Goodbye is the best way that I know,
I wish I had something beautiful to say,
But somehow silence takes that place.
So it's done with you pressed up against my chest,
I'll stay here, you head west.
Goodbye is like moving a mountain,
Just to find out what's on the other side.
But I know you'll find.
Right where you belong (x4)
This city always seemed to break your heart,
You fought fierce, but your friends always fell apart.
Dusk falls and you're halfway there by now,
And all that's left is your lipstick upon my brow.
Goodbye is like moving a mountain,
Just to find out what's on the other side.
But I know you'll find.
You don't need no intuition
All you need is a beating heart
Ain't no math you need to figure
Nothing here you can pick apart
Does it feel good to you, baby?
'Cause it feels like it should
It's gonna feel so good, baby
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
These nights get so lonely
Just the candles and the moon
But as you're waiting for that someone
Someone's out there waiting for you
It'll feel so good to you, baby
'Cause if it feels just like it should
It's gonna feel so good, baby
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
It could be summertime, the middle of the fall
But nothing will matter then
No, it won't matter at all
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
Texas at twilight,
You here on my mind.
Leaving gets harder,
With the more I leave behind.
I know that I can't have you,
But I'll convince myself.
This is the hardest thing I've ever done.
Somehow saving you by movin' on.
Memphis at midnight,
These nighlights fascinate.
But cities and their skylines,
Won't keep you away.
I know I don't need you,
So I'll convince myself.
This is the hardest thing I've ever done.
Somehow saving you by movin' on.
Someone tell me I'll move on from this,
And I'll move on.
Somehow every bit of you that's still in me will all be gone.
This is the hardest thing I've ever done.
Her face can move a mountain
Her water colored eyes, they shine
Every breathe she takes, she takes a little bit of mine
She's every woman's envy
Her smile it rises like the sun
When you think you've come to the end of her, you've just begun
Someday, Sarah
Someday, you will be my baby
(X2)
Her lips ring loud with glory
Her words they rattle and they hum
There's no part of woman that she has not become
Her laughter appears like thunder
Her anger like the ocean tide
Her love is thick and sweet and it is a hair wide
Someday, Sarah
Someday, you will be my baby.
Please don't tell me that I am wrong,
I've never felt so right.
She sticks in my head from night to day to night.
Check my fever, check my pulse,
Am I going crazy?
She goes round and round in my head.
Someone tell me how I caught this,
Must be in my blood.
Cause I have felt this way ever since I fell in love.
Check my fever, check my pulse,
Am I going crazy?
Mama's alone where the sirens call
They're filling up her mind like they fill the hall
Mama can't fight what she don't know
Baby looks fine while the cancer grows
Talking bout the prayers of the saints
They can do what most men can't
God bends his ears just to hear what they say
Something bout the way they move
Makes them do the things they do
Somewhere a saint is praying for you
Papa's alone while the sun sets red
He stands there fine, baby lays in bed
Papa blames this on what he don't know
Baby looks fine while the cancer grows
Talking bout the prayers of the saints
They can do what most men can't
God bends his ears just to hear what they say
Something bout the way they move
Makes them do the things they do
What do you say?
Let's give up now and just be done
Maybe we're afraid
Of all that we will and won't become
It's hard to believe
The one closest to me
Can feel so far away
You're my pleasure, you're my pain
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
You're my darkest night lost at sea
You're the shadows, you're my light
You're the one that I need tonight
You are a stranger still to me
You're my lady, my life, my love, my enemy
Everyday
We come together or come undone
Everytime I break
Tell me again how far we've come
It's hard to believe
The one closest to me
Can feel so far away
You're my pleasure, you're my pain
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
You're my darkest night lost at sea
You're the shadows, you're my light
You're the one that I need tonight
You are a stranger still to me
You're my lady, my life, my love, my enemy
We're changing
It's painful
Into something good
We're changing
It's painful
But it's good
You're my pleasure, you're my pain
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
You're my darkest night lost at sea
You're the shadows, you're my light
You're the one that I need tonight
You are a stranger still to me
I should first apologize
Cause I've done nothing but I'll do something
The good in me gets bad sometimes
But I don't mean it
I'll never mean it
Don't give up on me
Baby please believe
Cause I'll be more than a man for you
I'll do anything you ask me to
Heartache or heaven
Baby I will, pursue
More than a man for you
I'll try to name you deity
We all want something
I'm missing something
It Just explains the lack in me
Where I need you
And how I need you
So don't give up on me
Baby please believe
Cause I'll be more than a man for you
I'll do anything you ask me to
Heartache or heaven
Baby I will, pursue
More than a man
There's a war inside my
Heart and mind
Between the hope ahead and sin behind
All I ask, you believe in me
Meet me at the mistletoe
You're glowing like these Christmas lights
You're the Belle of the ball tonight
Our friends stopped in and will only leave when
We tell them all they have to
You wink from way across the room
I send a smile right back to you
Nothing is wrong but conversations go long
I only want a minute with you
Let's rendezvous and sneak a kiss the time is right
No one will know
Meet me at the mistletoe
It will be while before the party ends
Another couple just walked in
The night's been great but I can hardly wait
Until it's only us again
The mistletoe is looking so good tonight
Let's rendezvous and sneak a kiss the time is right
No one will know
Meet me at the mistletoe
We're having so much fun I don't really want the night to end
I need a moment or two with you just to make it until then
Let's rendezvous and sneak a kiss the time is right
No one will know
Meet me at the mistletoe
Come on and meet me baby
Mary was the first of three
Long black hair and sugar sweet
Daddy's eyes and Momma's crooked smile
She was barely seventeen
Got a job keepin dishes clean
Planned to stay in this city for awhile
For awhile
Joseph ran a lumber yard
About a mile from olive park
Quiet boy he never had much to say
It was love right from the start
He bought a ring and won Mary's heart
Had hopes for a home and kids someday
Kids someday
The angel scared her half to death
She would've screamed but she lost her breath
On a midnight there in the middle of May
He said "Oh mary don't be afraid
You'll bear a son that the Lord has made
Name him Jesus, He'll light the way."
She packed the clothes, he made the plans
They had to go to Bethlehem
But there was nowhere left to stay
So in a barn she gave birth
To the King of Kings the Lord of Earth
Just a little bitty thing sleeping on the hay
Sleeping on the hay
The story's too long to tell
But he walked on water and lived through hell
Killed on a cross and rose from the grave
We got a King they got a son
Mary and Joseph were the only ones
There on that very first Christmas day
Build a little cabin on a little tall hill
plan a little garden,pray for every meal
and we'll grow,and we'll grow
take a little nap in the butterfly grass
just you and I and the clouds a pass
and we're close,so close
we'll be living out where the river bends
where the grass gets green and the highway ends
living easy,easy
you and me baby and the daffodils the kids growing up
in the rolling hills
and love will be enough for us
rains coming down on the old tin roof
a lullaby storm in the middle of june
falling slow,falling slow
we'll be living out where the river bends
where the grass gets green and the highway ends
living easy
you and me baby and the daffodils the kids growing up
in the rolling hills
and love will be enough for
us,oooooh,love,ooooooh,love,will be enough
wake up darling let's leave tonight,
we can disappear under the clear moonlight
and we'll be living out where the river bends
where the grass gets green and the highway ends
living easy
You and me baby and the daffodils the kids growing up
in the rolling hills
and love will be enough for us
It must hurt your mouth to lie like that,
Knowing deep down you disagree.
We both tell ourselvees that the love is gone,
Truth is it will never leave.
I wish I had the words to make things right,
But they all get caught; my throat get tight.
Everything I do all seems to go so wrong.
This house of love has come tumbling down,
It could not withstand the strain.
But somewhere deep down between the rubble and ground,
There's love in the remains.
I can't tell you how this hurts me so,
See, without you I'm hald of me.
So with the same mouth i've used to put you down,
I offer up this apology.
I wish I had the words to make things right,
But they all get caught; my throat get tight.
Everything I do all seems to go so wrong.
This house of love has come tumbling down,
It could not withstand the strain.
But somewhere deep down between the rubble and ground,
There's love in the remains.
I wish it came down to just desire,
I wish it came down to just my will.
It's true it takes one to tear down,
I've been worried enough for the both of us
I hope that I haven't said too much lately, lately
You laugh and listen to my mind
Underneath these lights of the city sky
Baby
When nothing is going my way, you're still beside me
When it all falls into place, it just reminds me
Either way, it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need
Either way, it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
You make it look so good
All of these pictures hanging in the room
Are things I thought I'd never do, baby
I second guess, but you don't doubt
And somehow it just all works out, lately
Either way, it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need
Either way, it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
You make it look so good
My life gets brighter by the day
From how you shine
I don't think you even have to try
Either way, it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need
Either way, it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
Everything is beautiful
Cotton fields, the open road
Your radio plays a song
We both know, we don't sing along
La la la la la la
These little lies
La la la la la la
These little lies (2x)
Words can be daffodils
Or a fire in an open field
I'm sitting here in the ash
Stupid words, I can't take back
La la la la la la
These little lies
La la la la la la
These little lies (2x)
There's a devil on my shoulder, babe
And I believe too many things he says
I'm fighting these fears as I find the truth
And I'm sorry for hurting you
La la la la la la
These little lies
La la la la la la
Sixty-five down the Birmingham
The sunset sings like a hymn
Signs say "God Bless America"
As the stars all begin
In my headlights she's heavenly
And not now I'm undone
In Jackson (x2)
She is waiting there patiently
Street lights light up her face
And her smile is a symphony
That no chamber could play
And I greet her with my best kiss
But now I'm outdone
In Jackson (x2)
Now I can't be alone
And I can't let her stay
So I making a home, so far away
Darling, we're both scared
But where love is, fear won't tread
All of these friends here agree
We're right where we should be
Underneath all your white
My Lady, My Love, My Bride
In your darkest hours
Will I love you still
I have and I always will
I guess it's because I just do
Following heaven's clues
This is a big mystery
How I found, you found me
Underneath all your white
My Lady, My Love, My Bride
In your darkest hours
Will I love you still
I have and I always will
And you are changing now
Your part of me somehow
And I will never be alone
In your darkest hours
Well I love you still
I have and I always will
Your voices swirl and welcome me,
Hem me in, this anthem sweet.
That we are all familiar now,
We're in each other's blood somehow.
I will never be a stranger,
I will never be alone.
Cause wherever you are is home.
So raise a glass and gather round,
Toast the night and friendships found.
And I'll lay to rest my troubled face,
And breathe deep this amazing grace.
I will never be a stranger,
I will never be alone.
Cause wherever you are is home.
Sometime soon this road may part,
Mine may end where yours starts.
But should you ever need me,
You know right where I will be.
You will never be a stranger,
You will never be alone.
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
My baby bought a ticket, can't wait to see her face
Coming back to Tennessee from a million miles away
She got on this morning
Get here this afternoon
Pick up the pace, can't get here too soon
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
(X2)
I know her phone is ringing
She can't hear the sound
Drowned out by them big ol wheels eating up the ground
Jackson Mississippi, Memphis Tennessee
Two more hours til she's here with me
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
(X2)
Lord, You've been so good to me
Faithful friends and family
No I don't deserve it Lord.
But one thing I pray
On that big ol' bus You'll keep her safe.
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
(X2)
I can't believe she's coming back home
Grace's amazing hands, they hold me.
They are soft as a feather bed.
They would never strike or scold me,
Cause they know the words that will work instead.
I always thought that love was frightening,
I always thought it'd be so rough.
Love has sent me down an angel, baby
I knew it was Grace, just by a touch.
Just by her touch.
Grace's amazing hands, they're ugly,
They're bruised by the blows that I have blown.
She knows well I don't deserve her,
But she laughs and says, That's the way love goes.
I always thought that love was frightening,
I always thought it'd be so rough.
Love has sent me down an angel baby,
And I knew it was Grace, just by her touch.
Just by her touch.
What did I do,
What did I say?
For love to smile down on me,
And show me amazing grace.
C'mon and show me grace
Grace's amazing hands are they're ugly,
I've been a walking heartache
I've made a mess of me
The person that I've been lately
Ain't who I wanna be
But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you
There's more here than what we're seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel, lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You'll always be love's great martyr
I'll be the flattered fool
And I need you
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you
On my own I'm only half of what I could be
I can't do without you
We are stitched together and what love has tethered
I could never undo
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you
Gave me you
Honest, baby
Can't you see it when it's just me and you
My face gets blushed
My sentences rush
I don't know what to do
I'm trying latey
Just to act like nothings going on
It's plain to see
You get to me
And I guess you should
Rumors going round
Baby I guess it's true
Everybody knows it here but you
I love you girl but you still ain't got a clue
I've waited, baby
For these feelings just to fade away
As the days get longer
It just gets stronger
I don't know what to say
Forgive me, baby
See I never really meant to confuse
My chance is gone
All I've done is wrong
I got nothing left to lose
Rumors going round
Baby I guess it's true
Everybody knows it here but you
[Everybody knows but you]
I love you girl but you still ain't got a clue
[Everybody knows but you]
Everybody knows it here but you
[Everybody knows but you]
I love you girl but you still ain't got a clue
[Everybody knows but you]
I must apologize my reasons and all the lies
I'm helpless baby when it's you
Everybody knows it here but you
[Everybody knows but you]
I love you girl but you still ain't got a clue
[Everybody knows but you]
Everybody knows it here but you
[Everybody knows but you]
I love you girl but you still ain't got a clue
[Everybody knows but you]
Still ain't got a clue, got a clue
You don't have to tell me, girl, I know it
And hallelujah is coming out my mouth
Cause you're my girl and girl I don't deserve you
But deserving love is not what you're about
Im gonna tell the whole wide world about you
Tell them what you mean to me
Ooh, Im crazy bout ya, baby, and I just can't help it
Some might call it selfish
I need you by my side
I'm crazy bout ya baby
And there's no denying
No use even trying
I need you by my side
All the girls in the papers and the movies
And the covers of the dirty magazines
They got nothing on your beauty, pretty baby
Cause you're everything that they wish they could be
Im gonna tell the whole wide world about you
And tell them what you mean to me
Ooh, Im crazy bout ya, baby, and I just can't help it
Some might call it selfish
But I need you to myself
Ooh, I'm crazy bout ya baby
And there's no denying
No use even trying
When the future gets real tough
And silence speaks too much.
I'll reach my hands to you.
I'll be all you need, close your eyes and just believe.
Love, it can break your heart,
But that's where true love starts.
Trust me, i'll show you.
Life, it can beat you down,
But i'll still be around.
There's nothing I can't do.
I'll be all you need, close your eyes and just believe.
Life is shorter than you think,
It can get lost inside a blink.
Don't let it pass you by.
And me, I've loved you from the start,
You're the blood that beats my heart.
Search and you'll find me.
Christmas tree, baby baby you and me
We untangle plans and hung some memories
Suit and tie, places to be tonight
Girl, you've gotta know what I wanna go,
it's so toasty warm inside
Baby let's just light the fire (but i got a new dress)
Doesn't look so safe to drive (you bought me that necklace)
We won't know what we're missin if we don't go out for Christmas tonight
So much snow, the wind you know is bound to blow
It's too late, whatever would we say
We shouldn't break our plans, let down our friends,
Baby you best behave
Baby let's just light the fire (what about the city)
Doesn't look so safe to drive (but the drive's so pretty)
We won't know what we're missing if we don't go out for christmas tonight
You lookin too good to share
and maybe our friends won't care
baby we always got next year
Baby let's just light the fire
I'll get the matches
Doesn't look real safe to drive
I'll grab some glasses
We won't know what we're missing
Maybe we should stay in baby
There's a mountain here before me
And I'm gonna climb it with strength not my own
And He's gonna meet me where the mountain beats me
Carry me through, carry me through
There's a river here before me
And I'm gonna cross it with strength not my own
He's gonna save me where the river takes me
Carry me through, carry me through
But Lord be gentle for I'm just a man
Please don't crush me (please don't crush me)
With your Heavenly hand
Oh Lord remember, I try so hard
I'm walkin' tall (walkin' tall)
To the Kingdom, Lord
There's a city here before me
And I'm gonna get there with strength not my own
He's gonna carry me when I get weary
Carry me through, carry me through
Oh Lord be gentle, I'm just a man
Please don't crush me (please don't crush me)
With your Heavenly hand
Oh Lord remember, I try so hard
I'm walkin' tall (walkin' tall)
To your Kingdom, Lord
Hallelujah (hallelujah) (3x)
Carry me through
Hallelujah (hallelujah) (2x)
Oh sweet Lord
Jethro plays the trumpet
In Mount Zion Gospel Band
Playing that thing for 50 years, just as hard as he can
Now keep on playing that thing Jethro
Fills my heart with joy
If you don't play that trumpet
Lord, who's gonna make all that noise
Bubba plays the tuba every Sunday at the church
Play that thing for so long babe
Sometimes his lips, they hurt
Now keep playing that thing Bubba
Fills my heart with joy
If you don't play that tuba
Lord, who's gonna make all that noise
Raymond is the drummer, sloppy as can be
Mama plays the organ like the 7th symphony
Papa plays the guitar, sometimes play the bass
And you can tell he's happy from the smile upon his face
Then there's little Liza who plays the tambourine
Sometimes play a smile
But mostly plays it mean
Keep playing that thing Liza
Fills my heart with joy
If you don't play that tambourine
Lord, whose gonna make all that noise
If you don't play that trumpet
Lord, whose gonna make all that noise
If you don't play that tuba
Lord, whose gonna make all that noise
So you really think you're really something
And it looks like you might be.
I overheard you need a hero,
Babe, that sounds a lot like me.
Sounds like me (x3)
Girl, I don't know why you're laughing.
I'm a lot more than I seem.
Someone sweet, but strong as Sampson
Yeah, that sounds a lot like me.
Sounds like me (x3)
Truth is, don't believe a single word I've said.
I'm just trying to change your mind.
Dig a little deeper and I think you'd be amazed
At all the things you just might find.
Yeah
So you won't give me your number,
Your name or anything I need.
It's my fault for being foolish,
Babe that sounds a lot like me.
Sounds like me (x3)
Truth is don't believe a single word I've said.
I'm just trying to change your mind.
Dig a little deeper and I think you'd be amazed
At all the things you just might find
Yeah
Girl, I'll do anything you want me to
But walk away, walk away from you
But walk away from you
Come on girl
You can go
But I'm gonna stay
Cause I wanna be here either way.
