We ordered up one more bottle of wine
You told me your story and I thought about mine
You said when you lost her you lost everything
It all started having a familiar ring
So I asked you to take me some place quiet
We wound up at the river for the rest of the night
Somewhere around the break of day
I could hear it coming from a mile away
So don't say that word
Not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do but you don't
It's just the fear of being alone
Reckless hearts can clear a path
Wider than a hurricane's aftermath
We've both traveled down that road
Where in the name of love anything goes
So don't say that word
Not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do but you don't
It's just the fear of being alone
Like a child in the night
With no one to hold you
And tell you everything's gonna be all right
I must admit it's been fun
But that's no reason to jump the gun
If this is real time will tell

I thought I had my life under control
I was the one in charge of my heart and soul
Now I must focus in I'm losin more sleep than I should
I want you too badfor my own good
yeah
My intuition tells me I'm in to deep
This time this heart of mine is playing for keeps
I've fallen harder than I ever imagined I would
I want you to bad for my own good
chorus
If anyone had told me
i'd be feelin like this
I would have laughed in their face
Now I'm addicted to the thrill of you kiss
And it's a habit that I can't break
My independence is a thing of the past
My better judgment is fading fast
But i wouldn't give you up
Not even if I thought I could
I want you too bad for my own good
I want you to bad for my own good
For my own good
Oh, for my own good
yeah

The first time I laid my eyes on you I knew
We'd spend this life side by side
I still feel the same though you're so far away
I swear that you'll always be my
Forever love, I promise you
Someday we'll be together, forever love
I won't give up no matter what
I'll be waiting for you, forever love
Minutes and hours and years may go by
But my heart knows nothing of time
So don't cry just keep me right there in your dreams
And hold on to these words of mine
Forever love, I promise you
Someday we'll be together, forever love
I won't give up no matter what
I'll be waiting for you, forever love
Love is the road to our destiny
Nothing can change
What is meant to be, forever love
Oh, I won't give up no matter what
I'll be waiting for you, forever love
I'll be waiting for you, forever love

there were no angry words at all as we
carried boxes down the hall. one by one we
put them in your car nothing much for us
to say one last good bye and you drove
away i watched your tail lights as they faded
in the dark.
chorus- i couldn't face the night in
the lonely bed so i laid down on the
couch instead last night i prayed the
lord my sole to keep then i cryed myself
to sleep so sure life wouldn't go on without
you.lord the sun is blinding me as it wakes
me from the dark i guess the world aint gonna
stop for my broken heart.-
clock still ticking life goes on radio stills
plays a song as i try to put my scattered
thoughts in place.and it takes all strength
i've got to stumble to the coffee pot. the
first of many lonely mornings i have to face.
you called to see if i'm ok i look out the
window i just say repeat chorus.
ohhhh i guess the world aint gonna stop--

Of all the broken hearts I've had this one hurts the worst
His love flowed like a river now I'm dying of thirst
If loving him too much is why I lost him in the end
Then I hope I can live long enough to make that same mistake again
Well they say that love can be so strong that it's the choking kind
I never thought I'd see the day when love would be a crime
Mistakes can cost a lot and it sometimes we lose to win
Oh I hope I can live long enough to make that same mistake again
Oh I may go crazy missin' him knowin' that it's my fault
But how could I have loved him less oh I tremble at the thought
It's amazing how I'm holding on with the shape I'm in
Oh I hope that I can live long enough to make that same mistake again

I've forgotten your number
I hadn't called in a while
And I'm slowly forgetting your funny little smile
I've even stopped missing
The love that we knew
But I've never stopped dreaming of you
I've lost all the memories
The feel of your touch
And it's left my mind why I loved you so much
I've even forgotten who walked out on who
But I've never stopped dreaming of you
Chorus:
I've never stopped seeing your face every night
I see it each time that I close my eyes
And time's heal the memories
Of the pain I went through
But I've never stopped dreaming of you
I've misplaced all the trinkets
That you told me to keep
And it's been such a long time
Since I've lost any sleep
Now I'm doing just fine
With somebody new
But I've never stopped dreaming of you
Repeat Chorus
No I've never stopped dreaming of you

I changed my number
Bought some new clothes
Got some different records
And a new ?
I'm gettin over you
I'm gettin over you
I'm going out dancing
Learning new jokes
I'm staying out later
Than I should I suppose
But I'm gettin over you
I'm gettin over you
I took our name off the mailbox
Redecorated our room
I'm not saying the hurtin's all gone
But it'll be gone soon
Chorus:
I'm gettin over you
So what if you're not here
I'm gettin' over you
And it'll happen one of these years
I ordered make-up
From Vogue magazine
I'm taking aerobics two nights a week
And I'm getting over you
Oh I'm getting over you
I'm gettin' over you
I'm gettin' over you
My friends come over
And they wonder why
Your picture's back on the wall
Instead of proving losing you
Don't bother me at all
Repeat Chorus
I'm gettin over you
Oh I'm gettin over you

Well I can wash out forty four pairs of socks
And have 'em on the line
You know I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
'Fore you can count from one to nine
I can slip up a great big dip up of lard from a drippings can
Throw it in the skillet, do my shopping, and be back before it melts in
Chorus:
Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
Let me tell ya again
I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
Well I can rub and scrub till this house shines just like a dime
Feed the baby
Grease the car
Powder my nose at the same time
You know I can get all dressed up
Go out swinging with the M-A-N
Jump in bed at five
Sleep till 6
And start all over again
Repeat Chorus
Well now if you come to me sick you know that I'm gonna make you well
And if you come to me all hexed up you know I'm gonna break the spell
And if you come to me hungry, you know
I'll feed ya full of my grits
And if it's loving you want, I can kiss you and give you the shivering
fits
Repeat Chorus
(I'll say it again)
Well, I got a twenty dollar gold fee that says there's nothing that I
can't do
Well I can make a dress out of feeding sacks and I can make a man out
of you
Repeat Chorus
I'm a woman
I'm a woman
I'm a woman
Yeah I'm a woman

She came in lookin' good and lookin' around
She's checkin' out every man in the room right now
Don't go tellin' her about right or wrong she's been alone way too long
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter with only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort in the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger to the dark of the neon light
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter when there's no sign of love in sight
[ guitar ]
She hears him say hey can I buy you a drink
And sees the pale white circle where he wears his ring
She knows he's dealin' her a dangerous hand the consequences of a one night stand
But the heart is a lonely hunter...
From somewhere deep inside she tells him no before she starts to cry she turns to go
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter...
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter when there's no sign of love in sight

I just got the wedding invitation there's gonna be a celebration
Like you've never seen just fit for a queen
She's got her mom and daddy's blessing she's got a long white wedding dress
And his wedding ring oh what can I bring what do you give the girl who has everything
She's got the man who used to hold me
She's got the man who told me I was his everything
She's got the man who used to love me who placed no one above me
How he made my heart sing oh what can I bring
What do you give the girl who has everything
[ fiddle ]
She'll hear his promise of forever she'll hear him say what I could never
Get him to say oh he'll say it today
She'll hold his hands and throw the flowers drink champagne till the morning hours
The queen has her king and the world on a string
So what could you give the girl who has everything
She's got the man...
What do you give the girl who has everything

Can't Stop Now (different than the version on Reba Live)
I can't say I didn't know what I was doing
I can't pretend things just got out of hand
I should of kept my distance
While I was still strong
But I got caught up in the feeling
Carrying along
But it's too late baby
I can't stop now
Well I walked right in with my eyes wide open
But I was blind when you told me you'd be mine
Just as soon as you were free
I should have slowed down
Before push came to shove
But I was already falling
Now too deep in love
And it's too late baby
I can't stop now
Chorus:
Can't stop now
Crazy heart running out of control
Can't stop now
I'll be falling apart somewhere down the road
I might be heading for a breakdown
But I can't stop now
Well I'm sitting here wondering
How I ever let myself fall
I keep hearing promises
But nothing seems to change it all
The love we made
Has got a life of it's own
It'll keep on going long after you're gone
Now it's too late baby
Can't stop now
Repeat Chorus
I might be heading for a breakdown
But I can't stop now
I might be heading for a breakdown
But I can't stop now

Well it looks like you're alone again
I heard about your misery
She took you around the bend
And now you're coming back to me
Chorus:
That's all she wrote
Forget about her let her go
That's all she wrote
And I love to say I told you so
Think I know what happened late last night
I can tell by looking in your eyes
She spelled it out in black and white
And she left no room for compromise
Repeat Chorus
I could see it from a mile away
But I don't wanna rub it in
All I want is just to hear you say
That you're ready, are you ready
To love me again
Repeat Chorus
We can put all behind us now
Let's pretend it never happened
We'll forget about the pain somehow
If you're ready, are you ready
To love me again
Repeat Chorus

So you like Sunday picnics
And yelling at the umpire at a baseball game
Window shopping, popcorn popping
Wading through the puddle in a summer rain
And I'll bet you're kind to children and
Someday you'd like to be a mother too
And do you got a feeling when you're with me the way I do
Chorus:
Well that makes two of us
We're like birds of a feather
True love brings together
A precious few of us
That makes two of us
So you believe in wishes
While blowing out the candles on a birthday cake
Gentle hugs and lightning bugs
Staying up all night to watch the morning break
We've got so much in common
Given half a chance I'm sure you'll agree
One way to sum up forever is you and me
Repeat Chorus

(John Hobbs, Jerry Fuller)
Now and then I open up a trunk full of old souvenirs
Thumb through a scrapbook holding back the tears
I keep wishing we could do it once more
Just the way we did before
Chorus:
Take me back to Sycamore Park
Put the radio dial on the golden oldies
Hey lay a blanket down and hold me
We can stay all night
By the light of the moon above
So take me back, back to love
Ever since you took me to the big city
Looking for the start
Living in the fast lane
Is tearing us apart
Sometimes don't you want to trade it all in
For a little way back whenRepeat Chorus
Well I remember sneaking out the back
Mama thought I was asleep
Watching for your headlights
Creeping down the street
Trying to steal a kiss
Just anyway we can
Back where it all began
Repeat Chorus x2

I thought love was meant to last forever
Isn't that how love's supposed to be
Now it seems the good times are all over
It's so funny I guess the joke's on me
Every day I sit alone and wonder
Why I fell in love so easily
And then woke up to find that all he left behind
Are tattered dreams and broken pieces in my memory
So tell me what's so good about goodbye
What's so good about watching good love die
He's the kind you can't forget
So I won't even try
Tell me what's so good
I gave him all I could
Tell me what's so good about goodbye
I don't think I'll ever love another
I didn't know that goodbye could hurt so bad
I know I'll always find he's somewhere in my mind
Still believe the worst of him's the best I'll ever have
Repeat Chorus

You don't remember me
Oh but I remember you
Was not so long ago
You broke my heart in two
Chorus:
Tears on my pillow
Pain in my heart
Caused by you
If we could start anew
I wouldn't hesitate
I'd gladly take you back
And tempt the hand of fate
Repeat Chorus
Love is not a gadget
Love is not a toy
When you find the one you love
You fill your heart with joy
Repeat Verse #2
Repeat Chorus x2
You, you, you...

Do my heart a favor take your love away
Thank you for the offer but I can't let you stay
Everytime that love is given
I've been the one to pay
So save my heart take your love away
Do my heart a favor take your love and run
Lets go our separate way before there's damage done
Oh cuz I'm in no condition to fall for anyone
Save my heart take your heart and run
Take your love and hide away
Take my word that nothing but heartaches will follow if you stay
Take your love away
Every time love was given I've been the one to pay
Save my heart take your love away
Take your love and hide away
Take my word that nothing but heartaches will follow if you stay
Take your love and leave me now
Take a look there's nothing to keep you from breaking me down
Take your love away

Turn out the light
Turn yourself over to me
Turn off the world
Turn my feelings free
Just enjoy the pleasure
For the pleasure pleases me
You've been turning me on all night long
Now it's my turn
You have reached the woman in me
Through the man in you
Let me be that woman
Before the lovin's through
You just turn yourself over to me
While I turn my feelings free
You've been turning me on all night long
Now it's my turn
All night long
I've been driven to your touch
Haven't had time to give
I've been taking so much
I know you want to hold me
But darling you've done enough
You've been turning me on all night long
Now it's my turn
Repeat Verses #3 and #4
Repeat Verse #4

Oh I've been standing underneath a dark cool cloud now
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Oh I've been standing underneath a dark cool cloud now
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Oh I've been throwing a lot of good love away now
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Oh I've been throwing a lot of good love away now
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Oh I've been standing underneath a dark cool cloud now
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again
Oh I've been standing underneath a dark cool cloud now
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun to shine on my heart again

White light shadows gather around my door
They find me dreaming all alone once more
Memories come around to haunt my sleepless sounds
Now's the time I must be strong
I believe it won't be long
Chorus:
Till love comes again
To end these lonely nights
Till love comes again
To drive these tears I cry
It's darkest just before the dawn
And I'll just keep holding on
Till then
Till love comes again
Somewhere someone feels the way I do
And like me they dream of the love that's true
One day I'll look into his eyes I know the moment's right
Until then I'll just wait
No matter how long it might take
Repeat Chorus
Oh until then
Till love comes again

Feelin' better
Now that we're through
Feelin' better
'Cause I'm over you
I learned my lesson
It left a scar
But now I see
How you really are
Chorus:
You're no good, you're no good
You're no good...baby you're no good
I'm gonna say it again
You're no good, you're no good
You're no good...baby you're no good
Broke a heart
Gentle and true
Left a man
Over someone like you
I'll beg his forgiveness
On bended knee
But I wouldn't blame him
If he said to me
Repeat Chorus
I'm tellin' you now baby
That I'm going my way
Forget about you baby
'Cause I'm leaving today

They say no one should call on you
Unless She's your permission to
But me, I just came anyway
I couldn't care less what you say
'Cause I know you from long before
You hid behind a stained glass door
And walked around
And looked your old friends up and down
But anyway, I thought I'd come give you a look
At where you're from and let you know
I still recall what a child you are underneath it all
Chorus:
You remember me the funny way I cry
The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye
The funny way I wind up lost when someone sets me free
Why sure, you remember me
Well, I won't take up your whole day
I've said about all I have to say
I guess I'll be moving on
I know you'll be glad to see me gone
Tonight is our last night in town
So don't worry 'bout me hanging around
Tomorrow night it's Calgary
And you'll be good and rid of me
Repeat Chorus twice

My little boy was a wise man this year
His Christmas play was something I couldn't miss
Between the shopping and my job I barely got there
My faith was worn from stress and strain
Until those little
Chorus:
Angels sang (hallelujah)
To the King (people rejoice)
He brought peace and joy to all the world
When he came
And the angels sang (hallelujah)
And they sang (people rejoice)
And as I watched those innocent children
I felt the greatness of that holy night
And for a moment I was right there with those wise men
So overwhelmed with love and light I had to cry when the
Repeat Chorus twice

When you ain't got nobody, then nobody ever says goodbye.
You don't have to wait for someone to
make you laugh or make you cry
Wish I were only lonely.
Just kind of ordinary blue.
If I were only lonely then maybe I'd know what to do.
But I'm helpless cause I'm lonely for you.
I sleep in a bed so empty,
it's an emptiness no one can fill.
I may have to go on living,
but life without you ain't no thrill.
Repeat Chorus

Darling could I just have one moment with you we're here all alone just us two
Let me try to tell you in a few
little words how my heart feels about you
If there were no rainbow I'd paint one for you
And I'd teach the robin a new song or two
Then I'd fight forever and hand it to you oh I wish there was more I could do
You've got me right where you want me it's true I'm right in the palm of your hand
You've got me right where you want me to be and I won't be right where I am
[ guitar ]
You've got me right where you want me to be and I won't be right where I am

(Right Where You Want Me)
Darling could I just have one moment with you
We're here all alone just us two
Let me try to tell you in a few little words
How my heart feels about you
If there were no rainbow I'd paint one for you
And I'd teach the robin a new song or two
Then I'd fight forever
And hand it to you
Oh I wish there was more could do
You've got me right where you want me
It's true I'm right in the palm of your hand
You've got me right where you want me to be
And I want to be right where I am
You've got me right where you want me to be
And I want be right where I am

I caught you smiling at me again
out of the corner of my eye.
It isn't easy when I have to pretend
that you're just another guy.
I can't let anyone ever know.
I can't let my feelings show.
Cause you're the one I dream about,
when I fall asleep at night.
And you're the one I think about
when he turns out the light
Now it's so hard to live without you're love to hold me tight.
How I wish that he was you tonight.
Whenever you are close to me my heart
just won't be still.
I hope that no one else can see the
way you make me feel.
If only I didn't have to hide all this loving I
hold inside
Repeat Chorus

I've seen you smile more than I thought you would
And I smiled back a little more than I should
And lately at night while he's sound asleep
I'm thinking things that I shouldn't think
Chorus:
You're the first time I've thought about leaving
And I really don't know what I'll do
You're the first time I've thought about leaving him
I've never done known someone like you
Sometimes I wait when I really should go
Lord only knows what I do that for
When I get home and he holds me close
I try not to think what I'm thinking most
Repeat Chorus
I've never known someone like you

Your letter found me here in Denver
I've changed though since I've been here
I've learned there's more to life
Than your promises
There's someone here
In Colorado
Who won't forget tomorrow
So you really better love me after this
On a bus somewhere in Kansas
Heading home to take my chances
Lord I hope this time you mean
The things you say
I won't say this is the last time
And let you play with my mind
But you really better love me after this
Chorus:
Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
Doesn't really mean that much to you
But you really better love me
As the bus pulls in the station
I can see you waiting
And I believe we both forget
What we can't forgive
Now we're holding to each other
I can feel my heart recover
And I know you'll gonna love me after this
Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
I guess we really mean that much to you
Oh you're really gonna love you
Oh you're really gonna love me
Oh you're really gonna love me

Tell me why do you put up with my foolish ways
You never take to heart the crazy things I say
Oh I know you could walk out on me any day
There must be a darn good reason why you'd even want to stay
Chorus:
You must really love me
How can it be true
There are things you'll take from me
I won't even take from you
Everytime I fall apart
You always pull me through
You must really love me
As much as I love you
You must really love me
As much as I love you
I appreciate the honesty you've shown to me
And the way you tell your friends that you belong to me
And when you hold me tight it always sets me free
Oh this must be the way that true love was meant to be
Repeat Chorus (And Lord I'm glad you do)

Well pardon me but you have my attention
Ever since you strolled into the room
Believe me that it's not my intention
If I appear to come on too smooth
It's not like me to make such advances
But this time baby I could not resist
So if you're up for taking a chance on love
I can't see a better time than this
Chorus:
So baby why not tonight
This could be the start of something right
Hey you can take it easy
We can take it so slow
We can take it anywhere that you'd like to go
So baby why not tonight
The stars are out and I'm sure they'll agree
Oh it's a perfect night for falling in love
So why not fall in love with me
Oh maybe we could go out for some dinner
And later on how we could do the town
Ya know I consider myself a winner
Just to have a boy like you around
Then if you're up for doing some dancing
Yeah I know a place they dance until the dawn
Anything you like will be alright
So why not take a chance and come along
Repeat Chorus (Why not fall in love, why not fall in love, baby why not
fall
in love with me)

Some come for the music
Some for romance
You gotta be with the boy that brought you to the dance
Then across the room comes a casual glance
And you be making some dime even half the chance
Now some like to look
And some like to touch
All the things that they can't have
Way too much
Some like to get real close to the flame
once you feel the heat
You know they're never the same
Why do we want
What we know we can't have
Why don't we want
What's in the palm of our hands
Why we always looking
At what's just out of our grasp
Why do we want
What we know we can't have
Well Susie was out driving her new corvette
She hadn't made that second payment yet
She rear ended a Semi
But not by choice
She was a rubbernecking a new Rolls Royce
Repeat Chorus x2

Oh who's gonna love you like I do
And who you gonna find to do the things that I do
Before you say goodbye
Better think about it one more time
Tell me who
Who ever held you tighter
Who you gonna find that can take you any higher
Before you put me down
Better stop and look around
And tell me who
Who who who who
You just might just find a match
That can kindle your desires
But what could is just one candle
When what you need is fire
So tell me who
Who who who who
Before I let you go
One thing I've got to know
Tell me who
Who gonna love you like I do
Who who who
Who you're gonna find that can do the things that I do
Who who who ..

(Irving Berlin)
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear the sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

(Tim Johnson, Rory Lee)
Let me try to explain
It's not the roses or champagne
That really touch my heart
How can I make you see
That you're the best at loving me
When you don't know you are
CHORUS:
Baby it's the way that you reach out while you're sleepin'
And gently hold my hand the whole night through
It's how you listen when I'm pouring out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to
You don't need to rehearse
Some sweet romantic words
To whisper in my ear
So just forget the poetry
What comes naturally
Is what I long to hear
Repeat Chorus
It's in your eyes
And in your smile
In the passion of your kiss
It's takin' me in your arms so easily
So easily
It's how you listen when I'm pourin' out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to

I guess I'm just one of those
Who believes there has to be a reason
For living and breathing
Every time you pull me close
Something tells me there'll be no more reaching
You're everything I'm needing
Oh, I don't know how it happened, I never thought I would
Find someone to complete me
Oh, I just can't explain it, this feeling that I get
Oh, ain't no way to name it, but I'm thinking baby
CHORUS:
Maybe it's the way you look at me
Like there'll never be another
I get swept away, baby when
We get so caught up in each other
I don't know where you end and I begin
Where you end and I begin
All it takes is just one kiss
I just wanna get lost in this emotion
Like the river and the ocean
Oh, when you wrap your arms around me, it happens every time
Time don't seem to matter
We'll always be together, I don't know what it is
That tells me it's forever
but I'm thinking baby
Repeat Chorus

(Doug Gilmore, Bob Simon, Jim Allison)
The kid down the street mowes the grass every week
The neighbor next door fixed the roof where it leaked
Job's going fine and the bills are all paid
And everyone thinks that I'm doing OK
There's a guy down at work
He's asked me out once or twice
I haven't said yes
But I'm thinking I might
And on my way home I thought I saw you walk by
If only I could get you out of my mind
Chorus:
What in the world am I gonna do about you
Oh your memory keeps coming back
From out of the blue
Oh well I try
And I try
But I still can't believe that we're through
So tell me what in the world am I gonna do about you
What am I gonna do about youI went to the store
But it wasn't much fun
It doesn't take long when you're shopping for one
Standing in line I thought I saw you walk in
And that's when it started all over again
Repeat Chorus (Darling what am I gonna do about you)

How do two people like us ever happen to meet
I think about that
Was the timing just right
Was it just that the night was so sweet
I think about that
Was it chemical, physical, what was the deal
Or did some kind of magic turn out to be real
CHORUS:
Might be how you kiss and hold me tight
When we're walkin', honey, underneath the moonlight
Might be how it keeps on getting better
We haven't even talked about forever
I just know that we're so good together
When did we cross that line
And just happen to find we're in love
I think about that
Was it you, was it me
Who could see we'd turn out to be us
I think about that
We could spend all our time trying to figure it out
And not be any closer than we are right now
Repeat Chorus x2

Lately I'm alone a lot.
Mostly I guess you're not.
Forgive me if I stop and stare.
I was just alittle unprepared.
So the world has fallen at your feet.
Yeah you hardly even missed a beat.
Everyday your heart beats a little stronger.
But my nights for me get a little longer.
CHORUS
You've gone on a million miles from here.
Swept up like a feather in the air.
Well you make it look so easy.
That doesn't seem quite fair.
'Cause baby I'm still tryin' to
get myself up and flying.
I should be farther on by now.
I just can't seem to catch a breeze somehow.
I should be free to leave the ground.
With no dreams left to weigh me down.
Well could you tell me what to do.
I've been tryin' to eny the truth.
But here it is now the living proof.
The one I love loves someone new.
Repeat CHORUS
Oh you make it look so easy.
It doesn't seem quite fair.
'Cause baby I'm still tryin' to get myself.
Up and Flying

Chorus:
Is this how it is when it's over
Between a woman and a man
Must tomorrow just keep on being
Today all over again
You made it look so easy
Falling for somebody new
But I must be going about it all wrong
For I just can't stop loving you
Repeat Chorus
This morning I reached out to touch you
A habit I've held for so long
But I just started hurting all over again
Like I have ever since you've been gone
Repeat Chorus
Today all over again

Love is a powerful word
A little word that oughta mean something
Love better mean what it says
Say what you mean or it doesn't mean nothing
Love is a dangerous door to open
If you don't feel it when it's spoken
CHORUS:
Sometimes I said it when I really didn't mean it
Just to throw away a promise I knew wasn't true
It meant a little less to me everytime I did it
But I never said I love you from the heart
Til I said it to you
You made me tell you the truth
And that truth was a total revelation
I see I have it in me
Now I can speak without any hesitation
I love you comes so freely
For the first time I believe me
Repeat Chorus x2

That old picture with my arm around you
Tore it to pieces this morning at two
Score one for me
I took your portrait off the living room wall
Then I started on the ones in the hall
Had a bonfire
I decided it was time to forget
So I got rid of every picture you left
Chorus:
But what do I do with this picture of you in my mind
I close my eyes and I still see you saying goodbye
I know I'd be okay if I could just throw away
This picture
I walk alone down a crowded street
And see your face in everybody I meet
When's it gonna end
Every single night I crawl into bed
Hoping sleep will keep you out of my head
I should know better
Everytime I turn around there you are
I never thought your memory would go this far
Repeat Chorus twice & tag

Peaceful valleys, mountaintops
No dark alleys, or sudden stops
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you
Love is calling, starry skies
Always falling, but not for lies
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you
Chorus:
May all your sweet dreams go unbroken
May every wish you've ever spoken
Come true
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you
Celebrations, true blue friends
Revelations, and a heart that mends
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you
Repeat Chorus
Arms that welcome, doors opened wide
All your loved ones, gathered by your side
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you
May all your days be filled with laughter
May all your prayers be quickly answered
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear the sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

(Michael P. Heeney, Jackson Leap)
Well I could swear
This king size bed
Keeps getting wider
And I could swear
A stranger's laying by my side
And I can swear a long dark valley lies between us
And there ain't no way to cross the great divide
Chorus:
The great divide
Ain't in Colorado
It's the distance that we've somehow grown apart
The great divide
Oh that river's sorrow
We can't rebuild
The bridge we burned
Between our hearts
And Lord knows we both tried hard
At crossing rivers
But pride runs as deep
As it is wide
And the love that once could conquer any mountain
Has reached the edge of the great divide
Repeat Chorus
The great divide
Ain't in Colorado

You tell me that you're always gonna love me
But that's what he said
That's what he said
And forever is a word
That should mean something
But that's what he said
That's what he said
You're telling me the same sweet things he told me
And in your eyes I see that same sweet glow
And did you say you'd never leave me lonely
Well that's what he said
That's what he said
You're telling me I've got to go on living
To open up my heart and just let go
And it's better to love and lose
Then live with nothing
But that's what he said
That's what he said
That's what he said
That's what he said

It happened one day near December's end when two neighbors
called on an old friend and they found his shop so meager and
lean made gay with thousand bows of green and Conrad was
sitting with faces shining when he suddenly stopped as he
stitched a twine and he said ";Old friends, it dawned today
as the cock was crowing the night away the Lord appeared in
a dream to me and said ";I'm coming your guest to be.";
So I've been busy with feet of stern strewing my shop with
branches of fern. The table is spread and the kettle is shine.
And over the rafters the holly is twine. Now I'll wait for my
Lord to appear and listen closely so I will hear his step as
he nears my humble place. And I'll open the door and look on His face.
So his friends went home and left Conrad alone for this
was the happiest day he had known. For long since his family had
passed away and Conrad had spent many a sad Christmas Day.
But he knew with the Lord as his Christmas Guest this Christmas
would be the dearest and best.
So he listened with only joy in his heart and with
every sound he would rise with a start and look for the
Lord to be at his door. Like the vision he had had a few hours before.
So he ran to the window after hearing a sound but all he could
see on the snow covered ground was a shabby beggar whose shoes
were torn and all of his clothes were ragged and worn.
But Conrad was touched and he went to the door
and he said ";You know your feet must be frozen and sore.
I have some shoes in my shop for you and a coat that will
keep you warmer too."; So with grateful heart the man went away
but Conrad noticed the time of day and wondered what made the
Lord so late and how much longer he'd have to wait.
When he heard a knock he ran to the door but it was
only a stranger once more. A bent old lady with a shawl of
black with a bundle of kindling piled on her back. She asked
for only a place to rest but that was reserved for Conrad's
great guest. But her voice seemed to plead ";Don't send me away,
let me rest for awhile on Christmas Day";, so Conrad brewed
her a steaming cup and told her to set at the table and sup.
But after she left he was filled with dismay for
he saw that the hours were slipping away and the Lord hadn't come as
he said he would. Then Conrad felt sure he had misunderstood.
When out of of the stillness he heard a cry ";Please
help me and tell me where am I?"; So again he opened his
friendly door and stood disapointed as twice before.
It was only a child that wandered away and was lost from
her family on Christmas Day.
Again Conrad's heart was heavy and sad but he knew
he should make the little girl glad. So he called her in
and he wiped her tears, quieted all her childish fears.
Then he led her back to her home once more but as he
entered his own darkened door he knew the
Lord was not coming today.
Well the hours of Christmas had passed away so he
went to his room and knelt down to pray and he said
";Dear Lord, why did you delay? What kept you from
coming to call on me? For I wanted so much your face to see.
"; When soft in the silence a voice he heard.
";Lift up your head for I kept my word.
Three times my shadow crossed your floor
and three times I came to your lowly door.
I was the beggar with bruised, cold feet
and I was the woman you gave something to eat.
I was the child on the homeless street.
Three times I knocked, and three times I came in.
And each time I found the warmth of a friend.
Of all the gifts, love is the best.
And I was honored to be your Christmas Guest.

Sweet Dreams of you
Every night I go through
Why can't I forget you
And start my life new
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
You don't love me
It's plain
I should have known
I'd never wear your ring
I should hate you
The whole night through
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
Why can't I forget the past
And start loving someone new
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
Instead of having sweet dreams about you

I want a Sunday kind of love
A love to last past Saturday night
And I'd like to know
It's more than love at first sight
I want a Sunday kind of love
And I want a - a love that's on the square
Can't seem to find somebody
Someone to care
And I'm on a lonely road that leads to nowhere
I need a Sunday kind of love
I do all my Sunday dreaming
And all my Sunday scheming
Every minute, every hour, every day
And hopin' to discover
A certain kind of lover
Who will show me the way
And my arms needs someone to invoke
To keep me warm when Mondays and Tuesdays grow cold
And I need a love for all my life to have and to hold
I want a Sunday kind of love - oh yeah
Yeah, I don't want a Monday or a Tuesday
A Wednesday or a Thursday
Friday or Saturday
I don't want nothin' baby

When you've climbed the highest mountain
When a cloud holds the sunshine in
Suddenly there's a valley
Where the Earth knows peace with men
When a star hides the distant rainbow
And you think you can't find a friend
Suddenly there's a valley
Where friendships never end
Touched only by the season
Swept clean by the ? rain
Surveyed by every bluebird
And kissed by the falling rain
When you think there's no bright tomorrow
And you feel you can't try again
Suddenly there's a valley
Where hope and love begin
Suddenly there's a valley
Where hope and love begin

People love to talk
And Lord I've heard it all
A rumor's not a stranger in this town
Now me, I pay no mind
But it's hittin' home this time
Now I've been told you've gone and let me down
Chorus:
I need to hear it straight from you
Is it rumor or truth
It would break my heart in two
But if it's gonna be bad news
I need to hear it straight from you
I need to hear it straight from you
They all know her name
You didn't spare me any shame
I wonder did you even try to hude
I think that you owe me
Just a little honesty
And even though you told me with your eyes
Repeat Chorus:

She looks at the clock it's a quarter past nine
She hears his car as he pulls in the drive
Dinner's still waiting from hours before
She knows he's been drinking when he walks through the door
In anger he strikes out and she starts to cry
How much more can she take how much more can she lie
And she fell down the stair again but it hasn't happened since she don't know when
Was it in spring when she packed up the kids
Or maybe in winter with his job on the skids
Oh but just like before she'll have to pretend that she fell down the stairs again
A short time ago she started a job serving chicken fried steak and corn on the cob
She started out shy but she ended up sure
That a ticket to anywhere could be the cure
But he couldn't handle her change for the better
She tried to leave him but he wouldn't let her
He says he's sorry he'd never mean it he swears it won't happen again
But she's so confused she wants to believe it she just wants this nightmare to end
And she fell down the stair again...
Just like before she'll have to pretend that she fell down the stairs again

Love should be easy
It's such a natural thing
Nothing feels like the feeling
Only love can bring
Love can be laughter
Or heartaches in disguise
You could love a lifetime
And never realize
Chorus:
Love is never easy
Dreams are always hard to hold
Love is never easy
But it's more precious than gold
More precious than gold
More precious than gold
Love is forever
Until the day that it ends
Love can just be for lovers
Love can be for friends
So don't give up looking
And don't be afraid to fall
Cause when you find that one love
You'll know it's worth it all
Repeat Chorus x2

Luck can always change a state of your direction
Leave you looking for another place to run
There's no carrying the weight of
your convictions
You just live with what you've done
Chorus:
Silver Eagle
100,000 miles beneath your wings
Flying down that broken line
No one's gonna know the way I feel
One more lost and lonely stranger by the highway
Tell me that I'll never see his face again
You're the only one who's ever going my way
Don't you know the state I'm in
Repeat Chorus x2

Funny how love comes and goes.
With the tears that fill my life does it show.
So listen to my heart beat once again.
Because of you I hope this feeling never ends.
Silly Me.
I fell in love again.
We started out as friends.
You'd think I would have learned from the hurt before.
Foolish me.
Should I have closed the door.
Promised, even swore
to never love this way.
Oh foolish me
They say that love's a chance you take.
You know I've had my share.
But when the nights get oh so cold,
I need you there.
They say that love's a chance you take.
You know I've had my share.
But when the nights get oh so cold I need you there.
Repeat Chorus

Chorus:
She's got what I don't
You there to lean on
I wish I could get that off of my mind
But I don't know how
Cause she don't love you
Anything like I do
But that don't mean anything
She's the one loving you now
Well you're only bad crime
Was you used all the right lines
To make a girl like me
Feel like I was one of a kind
You had me believing
What I had you were needing
But I guess there was something missing
That you needed to find
Repeat Chorus
Who says you need a reason
For getting up and leaving
Frustration sets in
Cause I know she holds you tight
I guess it's human nature
To want to find a reason
Cause one good reason would make me
Sleep a little better tonight
Repeat Chorus
Yeah that don't mean anything
Cause she's the one loving you now

I always loved my baby
I always kiss my baby
I's always taken by his charms
I never hurt my baby
I never beat my baby
I never did him any harm but
Chorus:
That dog she stole my baby
She rock and rolled my baby
Swept him away from me by storm
She came on like lightning
Stole all my thunder
Took my sunshine away
She came on like lightning
Stole all my thunder
Took my sweet sunshine away
I learned a lover's lesson
No time for second guessing
When I fall under some man's spell
I don't care if he's taken
It won't be my heart breaking
Some other fool be crying well
Repeat Chorus x3

Ooo say the word
And I'll be yours
Say the word
So I'll be sure
That what I'm feeling goes for both of us
I hate to hear you tell me what you feel is really love
Say the word
Open up
Say the word
What's the hold up
Before I go and give my heart away
I need to know I'm falling for a man who ain't afraid to
Chorus:
Say the word
It's just four little letters
And if you really mean it
you've got me forever
And I've got so much love for you
That all you gotta do
Is say the word
And I'll be there
Anytime, anywhere
Repeat Chorus
And I'll be yours
So I'll be sure
Say the word
And I'll be there
Anytime, anywhere

Chorus:
I'm rolling I'm tumbling, I'm falling apart
Cause I'll never, no I'll never find love
In his runaway heart
He's a fast rushing river I can't get across
Like an ocean of sadness, o'er which I am tossed
He never slows down, he's always ready to fly
And when I get next to you it's just hello
Hello and goodbye
Repeat Chorus
No rope can hold down
He's not fit to be tied
Like the wildest of horses
Nobody can ride
Freedom's his distance
And the means to his end
So I'm giving up trying
Cause I'm just chasing, chasing the wind
Repeat Chorus
In his runaway heart

I overheard a conversation your name was mentioned in
But they didn't talk about us, only her again
I didn't want to listen but I hung on every word
They said some things I wish I hadn't heard
Chorus:
Oh Rumor has it she has you
Rumor has it you love her too
Oh talk is cheap but the price is high when it's true
Oh, Rumor has it she has you
This town's so small a whisper can be heard a mile away
And people here will gossip when there's nothing else to say
I wouldn't have believed my ears but I see it in your eyes
Those stories going 'round this town aren't lies
Oh rumor has it she has you
Rumor has it you love her too
Oh talk is cheap but the price is high when the it's true
Oh Rumor has it she has you

You ain't done nothing wrong but I think we need to talk
You might be the one but before we go too far
I need a little time to figure out my heart
Who could ask for more but I need to know for sure
I haven't been myself from the minute that we met
I ran into your world and kinda walked out on myself
All those dreams I had,I begin to second guess for you
One too many questions until I know the truth
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe
I know you're not to blame and I swear there's no one new
This has to do with me and not a thing to do with you
So don't try to understand you don't have a thing to prove to me
If you really love me just give me what I need
Room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe
Please don't take this wrong
Please don't turn away
I just don't want to look back one day and say
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe
Room to breathe

I prefer yellow roses to daisies
I'll take the mountains over a postcard view
I'll order steaks every time instead of hot dogs
That's why I chose him over you
I like to love somebody handsome rather than ugly
I like happiness instead of being blue
I like to talk real late at night after making love
And that's the reasons I chose him over you
Well I don't know how I ever did without him
And I don't understand why I put up with you
Well I know that the sun shines the brightest when you're happy
So go ahead and think just what you want to
But I promise what I just told you is true
Oh I love him so much and he loves me too
And that's the reasons I chose him over you
Just some of the reasons I chose him over you
Oh over you

Rain Fallin,Fallin Rain
It's a long and troubled night
A night when I wish I could sleep
But there's no sleep inside
Heart Breaking, Breaking heart
It's such a lonely sound
That cries for the need of someone
But there's no one around
Chorus:
Nobody here to hold
No one to warm the cold
That lies deep within my soul
All around, just the sound of the
Rain Falling, Fallin Rain
Like gentle tears of pain
That comes with my only friend
It's the gently falling rain
Repeat Chorus

Don't you know
That you're the one
I'd like to live my life through
I can't see anyone with me but you
I want to go where you go
And share the things you do
For I've waited all my life for you
I've heard tales
That true love comes
Only once in a life time
And this time is the last time for me
For I just can't imagine
Being in love with someone new
Cuz I've waited all my life for you
So here it is
All the love
That I've saved for a lifetime
Never touched
Never crushed
And never used
And to think that I'd ever find you
It's impossible but true
Cuz I've waited all my life for you
Oh I just can't imagine
Being in love with someone new
Cuz I've waited all my life for you

You've been treating me like a candle
You put me out and light me as you please
But I ain't never gonna be your handle
So you can hold me and hurt me when you squeeze
And bring me to my knees
Chorus:
I got over you long ago
I ain't under your spell
I've been around here too long
I've been over under around and now I'm gone
You carried me away with your blue eyes
Now I'm heading back for those blue skies
You cut me way too hard and way too deep
You're looking at what a fool used to be
Take a look at me
Repeat Chorus x2

Out of the blue
I needed someone to take me
Out of the blue
It seemed I'd always be alone
Till out of the blue came you
Out of the blue
Waiting for a love to take me
Out of the blue
I thought love had passed me by
Till out of the blue came you
Spreading my wings alone I'd fly
That empty sky of blue
Hoping that I would someday find
That someone just like you
Out of the blue
Someone who's love would take me
Out of the blue
I had almost given up
Till out of the blue came you
I thought love had passed me by
Till out of the blue came you

Only you
Can make this world seem bright
Only you
Can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love
For only you
Only you
Can make this change in me
For it's true
You are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
Oh, oh, only you
Can make this change in me
For it's true
You are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you

You found me down
Hurting bad from his memory
And I thought love and I were really through
But you reached out
And touched my heart so tenderly
You gave me life
Gave me hope
Made me blue
Chorus:
Touch by touch
You're taking the hurt away
Smile by smile
A little more everyday
Heart to heart
You're helping me find a way
To what I once dreamed of
Kiss by kiss
You're making love sweet again
Step by Step
Back on my feet again
Thanks to you
Feeling complete again
Yes you filled me up
Love by love
We're lying here
Loving the feeling morning brings
His memory's fading more with every dawn
Cause like the sun
Your love's so warm and gentle thing
Drives my tears
Lights my way
Leaves me up
Repeat Chorus x2

The stars are way out of reach, they all said
Those are crazy schemes that fill your fool head
But it was clear from the moment we met
We could prove them wrong
All my life I heard that same old story
Dare to dream and you'll just be sorry
I might have given up my shot at glory
But then you came along
Chorus:
We're not expecting this to go down easy
We're not expecting any sweet dreams
Sure thing
But with a little luck
Could be we'll be
Winding up the way we planned
Heading for our promised land
Holding one last good hand
Something's calling us I know you hear it
Day by day I feel us growing near it
But once you find a kindred spirit
There's nothing you can do
Oh, baby I'm not saying we won't ever stumble
Some days will be rough and tumble
You and I know that life's a gamble
But I'll
Bet mine on you
Repeat Chorus:

You said you were out with a friend
Well your friend left her lipstick in your car again
That mark on your neck didn't get there from shaving
I got a feeling you've been misbehaving
Chorus:
So give me one good reason why I should stay
Just one good reason not to walk away
Must be open season on cheating man-a-tease
And why do you do me this way
Just give me one good reason to stay
And I'll stay
You tell me your love is true
Well is that what you tell all the other girls too
You can't tell the truth babe
You're not even trying
I got a feeling you're just alibing
Repeat Chorus x4

Three wise men, a shining star
A mother and a father who had come so far
How could they know about their son
And the miracle he'd become
That he held the soul of man
In his tiny little hands
Chorus:
One child one day
And the universe will never be the same
From Bethlehem
Cause the angels' voices rejoicing in his name
Oh, and I believe with all my heart
That he will show the way
And you and I will meet
One child one day
A small white church, a mountainside
Cathedrals filled with music, and golden light
Oh, we gather everywhere
For the peace that's always there
For the story that is told
Of a birth so long ago
Repeat Chorus

Nobody told me
It could ever hurt so bad
I'm having to learn the hard way
Now that you're gone
It's hurting me more
Than any pain I've ever had
And I don't know how I can go on
CHORUS:
Nobody dies from a broken heart
Give it time, and your dreams will start again
I know love can tear you apart
But nobody dies from a broken heart
Everyone tells me
It's gonna take a little time
Before you find your heartaches
Slipping away
I know you mean well
And they're just trying to ease my mind
But it doesn't help to hear them say
Repeat Chorus
There's nothing anybody's gonna say
That'll talk me out of feeling this way
There's nothing anybody else can do
To take away my love for you
I know they mean well
And they're just trying to ease my mind
It doesn't help them to hear them say
Repeat Chorus

So many times I said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Somethin' in my heart always knew
I'd be lying there beside him
On my own, On my own, On my own
So many promises never should be spoken
Now you know what loving him costs
Now you're even talking divorce
And you weren't even married
On my own
Once again I'm
One more time by myself
No one said it would be easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believe in love now here I stand
You wonder why
I'm on my own
Why did it end this way
On my own
This wasn't how it was supposed to be
On my own
I wish that we could do it all again
So many times I know I could have told you
That losing him would cut like a knife
He walked out and there went your life
I don't want to live without him
On my own
This wasn't how it was supposed to end
On my own
I wish that we could do it all again
On my own
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone by myself
On my own
You've got to find out where you belong again
On my own
You've got to learn how to be strong again
On my own
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone by myself
You've got to find out where you belong again
Your heart is saying that it's time again
And I know that you're gonna shine again

Cool breeze on the river ripples to the shore
Wash away my troubles to the sea forever more
Wind and willows whisper sadness in the sound
Tell a tale of my once happy world that's fallen down
Old man I might be going where you're bound
Old man river I've come to talk again
Yes I know you're tired cause your journey never ends
He's just like you he's movin' all the time and I think he's movin' me out of her mind
[ harmonica ]
I wanna travel with you in your deep and emerald soul
That's the only way to make it peaceful like before
We used to touch at midnight but now I feel he's gone
Even though she's lying next to me I feel alone old man it looks like time to travel on
Old man river I've come...
Old man river I've come...

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born;
O night, O holy night, O night divine!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming,
Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friends.
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!

What a surprise
Never thought I'd hear from you
Whatever made you call
From out of the blue
What did you say
I must be hearing things
Things that I never thought would come from you
Chorus:
Now you tell me
That you love me desperately
Why did you wait so long to say those words to me
Oh you made me crazy
I don't know what to do
Now you tell me
Not that's there's somebody new
I think you should know
There's someone here with me
O bet he can tell you must be someone dear to me
So I better go
'Cause you still get to me
Just when I thought I was over you
This is all I need
Repeat Chorus & tag

Love's the only thing I know in this life
That's cut me deeper than the sharpest knife
And once again, here I am
And I'd pay any price for a new love
I still hurt for the one I lost
I'm standin' here on a bridge that I can't get across
And I can't burn, but I will
When I walk with a new love
(And/Oh) I believe (I believe that)
It's gonna be better than ever before
That's why I'm lookin' for
A new love for this ol' heart
A new love and I just can't wait to start
(To feel that way again) I wanna feel that way again
(Oh I'm wonderin' when) On when I find my new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Said I'm lookin' for a new love
Somebody tell me where I'll find a new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Love's the only thing that's ever made me cry
But nothin's ever made me feel more alive
And that's why, once again, here I am
Lookin' for the eyes of a new love
I know that somewhere in this world tonight
There's a guy, and I'd take a bus, car, a train or a flight
I'd even walk if I thought I might find a new love
(And/Oh) I believe (I believe that)
It's gonna be better than ever before
That's why I'm lookin' for
A new love for this ol' heart
A new love and I just can't wait to start
(To feel that way again) I wanna feel that way again
(Oh I'm wonderin' when) On when I find my new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Said I need a new love
For this ol' heart of mine
(And/Oh) I believe (I believe that)
It's gonna be better than ever before
That's why I'm lookin' for
A new love for this ol' heart
A new love and I just can't wait to start
(To feel that way again) I wanna feel that way again
(Oh I'm wonderin' when) On when I find my new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Oh, I'm lookin' for a new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Said, I need a new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Oh, I'm lookin' for a new love
Somebody tell me where I'll find (a new love)
For this ol' heart of mine

First thing I remember knowin'
Was a lonesome whistle blowin'
And a young one's dream of growin' up to ride.
On a freight train leavin' town
Not knowin' where I'm bound
No one could steer me right
But Mama tried
One and only rebel child
From a family meek and mild
My mama seemed to know what lay in store
In spite of all my Sunday learnin'
Toward the bad I kept on turnin'
Till mama couldn't hold me anymore
And I turned twenty-one in prison
Doin' life without parole
No one could steer me right
But Mama tried Mama tried
Mama tried to raise me better
But her pleading I denied
And that leaves only me to blame
'Cause Mama tried
And then there was another man from Texas.
My mama and daddy used to drive for
miles and miles just to listen to him sing.
I remember Mama used to tell me.
She'd say 'Reba he's got the best voice I've ever heard'
and then later on when I got to go and listen to him sing,
I'd sit there all night long and wait for
Ray Price to sing the blues

Open up your arms to me
Come and hold me tenderly
Let me know your love for me is real
And love me like there's no tomorrow
Share my joys and share my sorrow
Make me feel like a woman wants to feel
Chorus:
I know you love me cause you told me so
But that ain't enough cause I want to be shown
Make me feel like a woman wants to feel
And let me know you miss me when I'm not around
Go ahead and kiss me when I'm feeling down
Make me feel like a woman wants to feel
Repeat Chorus
Love me like I want to be loved
Let me know I'm the one you dream of
Make me feel like a woman wants to feel
Make me feel like a woman wants to feel

If you see him, tell him I wish him well. How am I doing? Well sometimes
it's hard to tell. I still miss him more than ever. But please don't say a
word.
If you see Him. Oh, if you see him.
If you see her, tell her I'm doing fine. And if you want to, say that I think
of her from time to time. Ask her if she ever wonders where we both went wrong.
If you see her. If you see her.
Oh, I still want her.
And I still need him so.
I don't know why we let each other go.
If you see her, tell her the light's still on for her.
Nothing's changed deep down the fire still burns for him. And even if
it takes forever, say I'll still be here. If you see him.
If you see her.
If you see him.
If you see her.

A smile's not a smile till it wrinkles your face a bell's not a bell without ringing
A home's not a home when there's nobody there a song's not a song without singing
Love isn't love till you give it away love isn't love till it's free
Love in your heart wasn't put there to stay
No love isn't love till you give it away
[ strings ]
You might think love is a treasure to keep a feeling to cherrish and hold
But love is a treasure for people to share you keep it by letting it go
Love isn't love till you give it away...
Love can't survive when it's hidden inside and love was meant to be shared
Love isn't love till you give it away...

(Timmy Tappan, Don Roth)
Smile's not a smile until it wrinkles your face
Bell's not a bell without ringing
A home's not a home when there's nobody there
A song's not a song without singing
Chorus:
Love isn't love till you give it away
Love isn't love till it's free
The love in your heart
Wasn't put there to stay
Oh love isn't love till you give it away
You might think love is a treasure to keep
Feeling to cherish and hold
But love is a treasure for people to share
You keep it by letting it goRepeat Chorus
Cause love can't survive
When it's hidden inside
And love was meant to be shared
Repeat Chorus

Then you call me long distance from Memphis
When they said it was you on the line
I said don't come tomorrow
Cause I won't be here
You'd only be wasting your time
I've been your long distance lover
For far too long
But I'm not here to tell you
Who's right or who's wrong
But I know I once loved you
But somehow it seems
That it's all a part of a dream
So don't call me again in the morning
Cause I won't be changing my mind
And the phone will be ringing in my empty room
I ain't leaving nothing behind
I've been your long distance lover
For far too long
The nights are so lonely
Can't keep holding on
And the miles are like mountains
That hide you from me
And it's all a part of a dream
I've been your long distance lover
For far too long
Can't hold on to feelings
When you're so long gone
It all keeps on a changing
And now it just means
That it's all a part of a dream

I guess it finally dawned on me you're gone
Well maybe I can make it on my own
I don't stay up wonderin' if you'll call
And some nights I don't dream of you at all
Your memory's still hurtin' deep inside
That's something I'm still learnin' how to hide
Though this heart of mine has lost an ache or two
I've only turned a lighter shade of blue
Chorus:
Lookin/ down the line sometimes
I think I see a change
But then I think again and think of you
Here and there I've turned a stone
But the mountain hasn't moved
I've only turned a lighter shade of blue
I'm still afraid of turning out the light
And it takes all my strength to face the night
Cause that's the time I face the bitter truth
I've only turned a lighter shade of blue
Repeat Chorus:

I didn't see the fire burn to ashes I couldn't feel the winds of change
I was lost inside the passion blinded by the mem'ry of a flame
I guess I should've felt it when you touched me I should've seen it in your eyes
But I believed you really loved me why can't I believe you've said goodbye
Oh why is the last one to know the first one to cry and the last to let go
Why is the one left behind the one left alone with no one to hold the last one to know
[ guitar ]
It would be easier to face the morning if you were holding me tonight
But you left me without warning holdin' on to a heartache while she's holding you tight
Why is the last one to know...

I watch you as you wake and rub your eyes and try to hide them from the
morning sun
I whisper how ya doing and you smile and say so tenderly good morning
Chorus:
Last night you made his memory fade a little
You helped me see how love can still be right
I wish you didn't have to leave
If you just knew how much I need
Last night, ev'ry night
I know you have to catch a plane to Memphis
And you mentioned it's an early flight
You start to pack
And while I comb my hair
I stare at you and think about last night
Cause (Repeat Chorus)
I slip into my robe to go make coffee
You come in and pull me close to you
And as I feel your tender kiss
I whisper can't Memphis wait a day or two
Cause (Repeat Chorus)
Cause (Repeat Chorus)

You told me I was one in a million
Everything that you wanted in this world
When every time I turn around
I hear tell you paint the town
With one of those million other girls
Oh, whatcha do to me is not the question
I swear I felt the magic from the start
I see the promise of a legendary love
But I am not about to share your heart
Chorus:
I'd do almost anything just to make you mine
But I won't stand in line
I won't stand in line waiting for your call
I won't take a number, just to take a fall
So make up your mind
I won't stand in line
How long do you think that you can handle
Keeping all those hearts up in the air
Don't you know in time you're bound to stumble
And when that day comes it won't be my affair

You can tell everyone love is over and done you can pack all your things and go
You can lie to yourself and say that there's nothing left
But there's something that I like you to know
It's never really over even though you say we're through
You may be holding me but can't you see it's not over if I'm not over you
[ fiddle ]
There's not much I can do if it's over for you
I'll just wish you the best when you leave
But you played such a part in my life and in my heart you'll always be part of me
It's never really over...
You may be holding me but can't you see it's not over if I'm not over you

You can tell everyone, love is over and done.
You can pack all your things and go.
You can lie to yourself and say that there's nothing left,
But there's something I want you to know.
It's never really over, even though you say we're through.
You may be over me, but can't you see, it's not over if I'm not over you.
There's not much I can do if it's over for you,
I'll just wish you the best when you leave.
But you've played such a part in my life and in my heart,
You'll always be a part of me.
It's never really over, even though you say we're through.

On Monday the sun will be shining
On Tuesday the weather was fine
Wednesday and Thursday went by
By Friday the clouds filled the sky
Dismorning I knew it would rain
The moment the telephone rang
I heard your voice and I knew
The sky turned a new shade of blue
And it looks like rain
It always rains on Saturday
The dark clouds came
And the sunny days are gone away
This house feels so cold
It always feels like this when he goes away
There's really nothing new about the rain
It always rains on Saturday
I look into Billy's young smile
And watch him watch Big Bird a while
His daddy will be here by eight
Seems like the sky's turning grey
There's an overnight bag on the stairs
Beside a one eyed teddy bear
I hold Billy and try not to cry
And whisper kiss mommy goodbye
And it looks like rain
It always rains on Saturday
The dark clouds came
And the sunny days are gone away
This house feels so cold
It always feels like this when he goes away
There's really nothing new about the rain
It always rains on Saturday
It always feels like this when Billy goes away

They say that it's the same the whole world over
That love's the hardest thing to understand
I thought once in love my troubles would blow over
But it seems that's when the heartache just begins
And I remember when you first said that you love me
I tried not to let the words go to my head
The things you said you spoke so sincerely
Somewhere in between the lines of red
Chorus:
Is it really love
Is it really love
Or just my heart playing tricks on me
I fall so easily
Is my heart telling me
That I'm your fool
Or is it really love
This time love's got me feeling so uncertain
My heart's seen all the breaks that it can take
I can't tell you if this is just infatuation
Or another chance to learn from my mistakes
Repeat Chorus
I'm a little bit leary
Of the love 'em and leave 'em behind kind
I'm just a little bit weary
Cause other lovers like messing with my mind
Oh all the time
Repeat Chorus
Am I your fool
Or is it really love

Well I couldn't sleep last night
Just walked the floor
Don't know how I'll stand this anymore
Lonely all the time since I lost you
Received your invitation to the blues
I don't know why you cause me such pain
I just hope I just never go through this much again
Thanks for sending something I can't use
Received your invitation to the blues
You took the laughter from this world of mine
And thanks to you the sun will never shine
I walk the floor so much I wore out my shoes
I received your invitation to the blues
I don't know why you cause me such pain
I just hope I just never go through this much again
Well lonely me I don't know what to do
Received your invitation to the blues
I don't know why you cause me such pain
I just hope I never go though this much again
Thanks for sending something I can't use
Received your invitation to the blues

We wouldn't have to meet here
In this dark secluded place
To hide our faces
If I had it my way
You wouldn't have to say goodbye
Then driving home dream up another alibi
If I had it my way
There'd be no more wrong numbers
When I call you on the phone
And she's there
And I wouldn't have to worry
She might find a moonlit strand of my hair
If I had it my way
Love would not be touch and go
We'd lie here in the afterglow
Till the break of day
If I had it my way
You would not keep leaving me
Love would not be misery
You would always stay
If I had it my way
Repeat Verse #1
Repeat Verses #4 and #5

I can feel the darkness reaching in
As I touch the place you may as well have never been
Love can hurt much more than one can bear
When a heart beats for someone who's not there
How many times must I tell myself that you're gone
When will the rest of me wake up and see what went wrong... So wrong
And turn on the light and pick up the phone and just call
And lay pride aside
If I had any sense left at all
Voices call that only I can hear
Who would have thought love was something I would fear
Almost home, almost there, almost taste
On my mind, in my heart, on my face
How many times must I tell myself that you're gone
When will the rest of me wake up and see what went wrong... So wrong
And turn on the light and pick up the phone and just call
And lay pride aside
If I had any sense left at all
Oh just lay pride aside
If I had any sense left at all

Well I'm flying out of Tulsa
Trying to get out to the coast
Missing my connections
But it's you I miss the most
I'm in love all over (echo)
I'm in love all over (echo)
Well I'm in love all over
Everywhere I go
Well my heart feels like bursting
When you walk into the room
My lips just start thirsting
For another kiss from you
I'm in love all over (echo)
Yes I'm in love all over (echo)
I'm in love all over
From my head down to my shoes
In search of true affection
I found a new direction
And that's straight to you
Oh I use to like to play around
But I can see that's all over now
Oh my friends sure like to gossip
Think they know the gospel truth
Words leak like a faucet
When it comes to me and you
I'm in love all over (echo)
Oh I'm in love all over (echo)
Yes I'm in love all over
Everywhere I go
I'm in love all over
From my head down to toes
I'm in love all over
Everybody knows about me and you
Repeat Verse 5, 6, 7
Oh yes they do
Cause I'm in love all over
I'm in love all over
Yes I'm in love all over
Yes I'm in love all over

I'm Gonna Take that mountain
I was born a stubborn soul
Aint afraid of the great unknown, nor
the windin road thats all uphill
This is just a stumblin block
Intimidating wall of rock
If you think this broken heart
Will break my will
I'm gonna take that mountain
Aint nothing gonna slow me down
And there aint no way around it
Gonna leave it level with the ground
Aint just gonna cross it, climb it, fight it
I'm gonna take that mountain
It's overwhelmin lookin up
knowin it's a challenge of
me against this heartache to survive
I may slip and i may fall
But even if I have to crawl
I will break through
To the healin side
Repeat chorus
Aint just gonna cross it, climb it, fight it
I'm gonna take that mountain
Repeat chorus
I was born a stubborn soul....
This is just a stumblin block....
I'm gonna take that mountain ....

I'm dreaming tonight of the place I love
Even more then I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back
This I promise you
Well, I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on me
So please have snow and lots of mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Oh Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love life is
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
You know Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love life is
Darling I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Oh if only in my dreams

Everyone I see these days still asks me about you.
I guess they got so used to us together
they assume that everything's ok and then I have to say...
CHORUS
I wouldn't know. I haven't seen him.
I couldn't say it's been awhile.
I haven't thought about him lately.
So I wouldn't know.
I'm getting tired of people askin'.
Why can't they just leave me alone.
I couldn't care, I couldn't say, I wouldn't know.
I don't get out anymore to our old stompin' grounds.
'Cause some old friend is bound to ask me
Why you're not around.
Well I just stay away so I don't have to say...
Repeat Chorus

If all our love is through
If you found someone new
Then I want to hear it from you
If there is no mistake
And if my heart must break
I want to hear it from you
Just the thought of losing you
Is more than I can stand
But this hurt would be much worse
If I heard it secondhand
If there's no hope at all
If my world must fall
I want to hear it from you
So tell me now
If things are not the way they used to be
I want to hear it from your lips
You owe that much to me
If all our love is through
If you found someone new
Then I want to hear it from you

Christmas toys all over the place
Little Shelby wears a funny smile on his face
Shelby has a secret
And the secret he must share
He wants to tell somebody
So he tells his teddy bear
Chorus:
I saw Mama kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the misteltoe last night
She didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peek(it says peep but go with peek)
She thought that I was tucked up in my bedroom fast asleep
Then, I saw Mama tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If Daddy had only seen
Mama kissing Santa Claus last night
Repeat Chorus

Well I can't make it through this world by myself
I need heaven's help to make through the day
And if I go to bed tonight
And remember to say my prayers
I know I'll have a better day tomorrow
Chorus:
Cause you've done what you said you'd do
And you've given me lots of love
And I've never known such peace
Since I met you
I'm so proud to be your child
And I'm doing the best I can
And I know I'll have a better day tomorrow
Well (Repeat Chorus)
I know I'll have a better day tomorrow

Oh, I'm feeling so fine and you're looking so good
And I'd like to get together
Oh Lord, I wish we could
But there's someone at home
Who's depending on me
And boy they'd never know it
If I set my passions free
Chorus:
But I don't think love ought to be that way
No I don't think love ought to be that way
I could tell him a lie
And I know I'd get by
But I don't think love ought to be that way
You say a precious moment
Is all that it would be
That I'd forget about you
And you'd forget me
Oh I love what you're saying
It's tempting me so
And though I love to hear it
There's no way that I'll let go
Repeat Chorus
No (Repeat Chorus x3)

(Michael P. Heeney, David Scarlett)
Well I don't need a caddy to make me happy
Or a flat up on park avenue
I don't need riches or treasures
All those high priced pleasures darling
All I need is you
Chorus:
I know I don't need nothing you ain't got
If you were coffee in the morning
Well I'd drink that whole pot
Cause you got everything all them others do not
Darling I don't need nothing you ain't got
Now Lord knows you ain't a saint
Robert Redford you ain't
But you got a heart of gold through and through
And when it comes to loving
All that kissing and hugging
Ain't nobody else ever gonna do
Repeat Chorus
Well now who thought I'd be satisfied
With just one guy by my side
Oh Lordy, Lordy look at me
But hon you're different from the rest
I'm here to confess
That love from you is all I'm ever gonna need
Repeat Verse #1
Repeat Chorus

Touch me and I feel your fire
Kiss me and the flame rolls higher
Show me all the love you know
Hold me never let me go
I never thought I'd be
Wrapped in the words
Of your sweet, sweet love
But here you are with me
This is what dreams are made of
Chorus:
I can see forever in your eyes
I can see a love that never dies
When you lay me down I realize
I can see forever in your eyes
Take me in your arms tonight
Love me with all your might
Give me all my heart can hold
Hold me never let me go
Love was mystery
Until you touched me with sweet, sweet love
Now it's so clear to me
This is what love is made of
Repeat Chorus x2

Just when I thought that it never could happen to me
He touched me and feelings that never have stirred in me
Ever like this
Are in his kiss
Chorus:
Heart where are you taking me
What will you make of me
Is this the real thing
And heart could he be paradise
Cause in his eyes
Do I see love looking at me
Maybe I'm crazy
For believing it's different this time
Oh am I ready to feel what I've dreamed about
Love that I've lived without finding
Is finding me
Repeat Chorus

The cold night in the kitchen saying things we'll both regret
And you scream you were leaving and you cursed the day we'd met
Then the sound goes above the slamming door
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
So loud it made us stop it was the sound of a teardrop
When I heard her crying thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go I heard her crying
[ piano ]
Well I'd have given anything for time to erase
When I turned around and saw those little tears roll down her face
Oh my heart nearly broke in two when she said mommy what did I do
To make you and daddy mad oh I'm sorry I was bad
Well I looked at you and you looked at me and we felt each other's shame
Then kneeling down to hold our child said she was not to blame
Now sometimes when we're angry we say things that aren't true
We still love each other and baby we love you
And I heard her crying...

In the eyes of the world he's only an ordinary man
But there's a million and one things the eyes of the world never see
He may walk the same
He may talk the same
As a million others do
Oh but you'd see him as I do if his heart had eyes for you
Chorus:
He's only everything
Only everything
He's as real as the thrill I feel
When he walks through my dreams
He's the one I hold
When my world grows cold
And needs a touch of spring
Or a song to sing
Yes in these eyes of mine
Lord he's only everything
Repeat Chorus
Yes in these eyes of mine
Lord he's only everything

He Gets That From Me
His early mornin' attitude
You have to drag him out of bed
Only frosted flakes will do
He gets that from me
Yeah,he gets that from me
His curly hair and his knobby knees
The way the sun brings those freckles out
Talk and talk never miss a beat
Yeah,he gets that from me
He gets that from me
He looks at me with those big brown eyes
He's got me in the palm of his hands
And I swear sometimes
It's just like you're here again
He smiles that little crooked smile
There's no denying he's your child
Without him I don't know what I'd do
He gets that from you
Oh,he gets that from you
How he loves your old guitar
Yeah,he's taught himself to play
He melts my heart
Tells me he loves me every day
And cracks jokes at the perfect time
Makes me laugh when I want to cry
That boy is everything to me
He gets that from you
He gets that from you
Last night I heard him pray
Lord,help me and mama make it through
And tell daddy we'll be okay
He said he sure misses you
He sure misses you
He really misses you
He gets that from me

Well I could swear this king size bed keeps gettin' wider
And I could swear a stranger's laying by my side
And I could swear a long dark valley lies between us
And there ain't no way to cross the great divide
The great divide ain't in Colorado it's the distance that we've somehow grown apart
The great divide oh that river's sorrow
We can't rebuild the bridge we burned between our hearts
Now Lord knows we're both tryin' hard at crossin' over
But pride runs as deep as it is wide
And the love that once could conquer any mountain
Has reached the edge of the great divide
The great divide...
The great divide ain't in Colorado

Use to be (Use to be)
Love was mean to me
Every love I tried my heart cried that won't do
Now you see (Now you see)
Love's been good to me I guess my love was waiting just for you
You and me (You and me) (You and me)
Go so well as we
Fit right to a T
Can't you see we do
Chorus:
Gotta say (Gotta say) (Gotta say)
Your love's got a way
Of making me glad
I waited just for you
I should have known
That my heart could not be wrong
Repeat chorus 4 times

Do you hold her all night long?
Do you sing her our love song?
Do you kiss her lips until love makes her weak?
Oh darlin'
Do you promise her the moon?
Does she think loves coming soon?
Does she know each move is made from memory?
Oh darlin'
Everytime you touch her (Every time)
Everytime you touch her
think of me.
When she reaches out for you ,
the same way my arms do,
does she know the truth your love belongs to me?
oh baby
Do you wonder in the dark if she sees into your heart?
Do you close your eyes so she will never see?
Oh baby!
Everytime you touch her ,
(Every time)
Everytime you touch her.
think of me.
Nights were never made to spend alone.
I can wish you love,
but I can't wish you gone.
Do you hold her all night long?
Do you sing her our love song?
Do you kiss her lips until love makes her weak?
oh darlin'
Everytime you touch her
(Every time)
Everytime you touch her
think of me.

In the beginning
The nights were long
Under the moonlight
I could do no wrong
You told me
I was everything you wanted me to be
Then summer was over
And the nights grew cold
You got restless
And hard to hold
I tried to be
Everything you wanted me to be
Now you keep staring
At that open door
You got what you wanted
And you still want more
Well look at me
I'm everything you wanted me to be
Chorus:
Well if I don't keep you satisfied
You can't say that I haven't tried
And if I'm not what you want by now
For the life of me I can't see how
I'll ever be
Everything that you want me to be
In the beginning
The nights were long
Under the moonlight
I could do no wrong
Remember me?
I was everything you wanted me to be

The bed is cold and empty in the morning light
I'm searching for my pride through tangled covers
And loneliness is not a very pretty sight
When you first discover
Chorus:
That it's over
A hard one to lose
Love hurts
It's sad but true
He wanted my arms around him
Oh without a doubt
He wanted my warm red lips
Soft on his mouth
He loved all of me
Except for one small part
He wanted everything
Everything but my heart
Love is not an easy word for me right now
Too much has happened to my feelings
It's gonna be rough not having him around
Until time has done some healing
And it's over
And I'm over you
Repeat Chorus (Starting at Love Hurts

Empty arms
That long for you
And they wait
Dear just for you
And these arms
Will stay this way
Till you return
To them someday
Each lonely night
I go to bed
I hug the pillow
Where you used to lay your head
Empty arms
But not for long
Cause my baby's coming home
And when he
Walks through the door
These empty arms
I'll have no more
And when he
Walks through that door
These empty arms
I'll have no more
These empty arms
I'll have no more

No need talking
I can't see it
Someone set your heart on fire
Now she's gone and all she left is hurt
Lots of burning sweet desire
Chorus:
So let me ease the fever and erase the pain
Let me make a believer out of you again
Hold me close and let me love the tears away
Let me ease the fever and erase the pain
Let your tears fall on my shoulder
Let your arms around me tight
Yesterday is gone forever
Let's make tomorrow start tonight
Repeat Chorus x3

He can give you a reason to live if he wants to
He can make you forget other loves that you had known
He has two lips and two arms that thrill you as very few do
And if you want him to give them to you just ask and he will
Chorus:
Don't you believe him
I did and soon he'll be leaving me
No don't believe him if you do
Then soon he'll be leaving you too
He can tell you a lie you believe if he has to
And you'll trust me till time and the tide both stand still
He can cry on your shoulder and swear to the things that he won't do
But be careful for when you're not looking he will
Repeat Chorus

Now you spread your wings to fly
There are some new things you must try
No matter where it is you go
Oh whoah don't forget your way home
I see the leaving in your eyes
I see no reason I should try
To hold you back
And keep you for my own
Oh whoah don't forget your way home
Chorus:
Many roads may lead you back this way
And you may change your mind someday
And when you've missed this life we've known
Oh whoah don't forget your way home
I guess I'll always feel the same
I'll always be the keeper of this flame
And it will burn long after you're gone
Oh whoah don't forget your way home
Repeat Chorus
Darling have you ever cheated on me
And I said only in my mind

Sometimes you treat me so cruel.
I don't think I can take it.
Sometimes you hurt me so bad, I just wanna die.
But in a moment like this.
With a tender touch and a lover's kiss,
You put all of my
pain aside and I say to you with my eyes,
Do right by me and make it last forever.
Tonight I need to be here in your arms.
Where the hurting ends and the love begins.
Do right by me and I'll never do you wrong.
It feels so good to be so close like we were when
we started Oooh back when the troubles were few
and the loving was blind.
Funny how people so close Know the things to
say that can hurt the most.
Baby why can't we just be kind and capture this moment in time.
Repeat Chorus

(Dave Gibson, Patti Stephens)
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me
I hope you're happy
So now just let me be
I might be slow to lovers
But I catch on eventually
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me
Anticipation
You kept me waiting in line
Your situation did not allow you time
So I'd sit home alone
Pretending someday you'd be mine
Congratulations
You made a fool of me this time
Then he played it smart
You stole my heart
And tore my world apart
Guess you always knew
I'd be the perfect fool
Congratulations baby
You win, I lose
Imagination
The way I dreamed it could be
Ooo, the sweetest sensation
Of how you made love to me
But now the vision's gone
It's time to face reality
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me

Well I thought I had seen good looking men in my time
That was before I met you
And I never saw one that I wanted for mine
But that was before I met you
Chorus:
Well I thought I was swinging the world by the tail
I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed
And I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you
Well I wanted to ramble and always be free
That was before I met you
And I said that nobody could ever hold me
But that was before I met you
Repeat Chorus
I thought I'd been kissed
And I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you
Darling that was before I met you

Away in the manger no crib for His bed.
The little Lord Jesus
laid down His sweet head.
The stars in the sky
look down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus
asleep on the hay.
The cattle are lowing
the poor baby wakes,
But little Lord Jesus,
No crying He makes.
I love thee, Lord Jesus;
Look down from the sky,
And stay by my cradle,
till morning is night.

Jamie turned 13 tonight
But she didn't blow out the birthday lights
Jamie and her momma had another big fight
She locked herself in her room
She climbed up on her windowsill
Sat and stared at the cars on the street
And listened to her own heart beat
And whispered to the moon
Am I the only one who cares what I do
Cause if I'm the only one then who can I turn to
Oh moon can you tell me that it's not just me and you
Or am I the only one who cares what I do
The moon said Jamie can't you hear yourself
You're acting like there ain't nobody else
Come on girl take a big ole breath
You know what you gotta do
There's one more thing before I go
A woman's been standing at the window below
Searching for the words to let you know
How much she loves you too
And you're not the only one who cares what you do
And I'm not the only one that you can turn to
Now Jamie please believe me
It's not just me and you
And I'm not the only one who cares
She cares too
Jamie heard her mama
Softly knocking at her door
The moon just smiled and whispered
You all don't need me anymore
I'm not the only one who cares what you do
And I'm not the only one you can tell your troubles to
I've done the best I can
Now the rest is up to you
And I'm not the only one who cares
You both care too
You both care too

I remember the first time I held you all night long.
Well we're still here now.
But where have all the years gone?
Holding yu this way tonight.
It's easy to see why.
CHORUS
All this time.
We held on to each other.
We knew we had to be strong.
All this time.
Through the tears and the laughter.
It's still forever after all this time.
In the fast movin' world.
Love is made and just thrown away.
But we've always kept the promises that we made.
Who would of thought you and me?
Would still be here where we said we would be.
Repeat CHORUS Twice

I must make up my mind today
What to have what to hold
A poor man's roses
Or a rich man's gold
One's as wealthy as a king in a palace
Though he's calice and cold
He may learn to give his heart for love
Instead of buying it with gold
Then the poor man's roses
And the thrill when we kiss
Will be memories of paradise
That I'll never miss
And yet the hand that brings a rose tonight
Is the hand that I will hold
For the rose of love means more to me
More than any rich man's gold
Repeat Verses #3 and #4

I see you now, I think of then
And dwell upon the happiness of way back when
Cause since you said goodbye
The feelings just won't die
And I still long to hold you now and then
A million years have come and gone
And I was sure by now I'd make it on my own
But seeing you today
Took my breath away
And I still long to hold you now and then
Suddenly I felt myself wondering
If you might wanna try it again
And though I wanted so much to hold you
You smiled and shook my hand
So I'll exist on dreams again
On days when we were lovers and not just friends
And even if I find another love in time
I still long to hold you now and then
Oh, I still long to hold you now and then

White light shadows gather around my door
They find me dreaming all alone once more
Memories come around to haunt my sleepless sounds
Now's the time I must be strong
I believe it won't be long
Chorus:
Till love comes again
To end these lonely nights
Till love comes again
To drive these tears I cry
It's darkest just before the dawn
And I'll just keep holding on
Till then
Till love comes again
Somewhere someone feels the way I do
And like me they dream of the love that's true
One day I'll look into his eyes I know the moment's right
Until then I'll just wait
No matter how long it might take
Repeat Chorus
Oh until then

(Ruby Hice, Danny Hice)
Some folks say that a mother's love is sweeter than the rest
When her baby's nestled in her arms and feeding at her breast
But I can't explain the feeling when you reach and touch my hand
Because there' nothing like the love between and woman and a man
Chorus:
It's a miracle from heaven
That it fills me through and through
Like a feeling that surrounds us
Touching me touching you
When you wrap your love around me it's not hard to understand
Why there's nothing like the love between and woman and a man
Well the father's love is quiet
But it's there for all to see
When a little boy is laughing bouncing on his daddy's knee
Then those great big hands reach down to tuck his little cowboy in
But there's nothing like the love between a woman and a man
Repeat Chorus 4 times

He said I'll make your dreams come true in Texas
And he captured my Appalachian heart
I was so naive that I believed him
When he promised we'd never be apart
So we packed and pulled a U-Haul down to Dallas
A year went by and the baby came along
Then his old friends and the night life came between us
Dreams turned into sleepless nights waiting all alone
Chorus:
I'm staring out the window through these teardrops
Holding on to the only dream that turned out right
We're on a Greyhound bus bound for West Virginia
He's in Dallas without us tonight
Oh, Lord I hate to break the news to mama
She's gettin on in years and worries so
Maybe I should have stayed in Dallas
And gave him another chance right now I just don't know
Repeat Chorus
He said I'll make your dreams come true in Texas
He's in Dallas without us tonight

(Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)(Mel Torme, Robert Wells)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by the choir
Folks dressed up like ?
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Helps to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa Claus is on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from 1 to 92
Although it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas to youOh, and so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from 1 to 92
And although it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
(Whispers) Merry Christmas

Yeah, yeah, yeah Hmmm hmm
You know it seems like I've loved you forever.
Who could be closer than you and I.
People even say we're so much alike,
But they don't know why I've been loving
you so long that I know every move you make
,Every breath you take.
Lord I feel it so strong.
Sometimes I don't know where I end,
and where you begin.
Oh you make me so happy,
feeling like this There's so much ahead
that I don't want to miss Oh I want
to keep it so good
So, So, So Long So fine, So
real, So right, Oh I want to keep it so good
So, So, So, Long Eh, yeah.
yeah Mmmm mmm Oh darling don't think for a minute
Time could ever steal the thrill away.
You've still got the power to be
my man And you know you can I've been loving you so
long.
Repeat Chorus

On Christmas Eve in 1818
A blizzard stranded the tiny village of Ogledorf
Nestled in the Austrian mountains
That same day the people of St. Nicholas' church found their organ
broken
So the priest and organist began composing a song that could be sung
without
an organ yet beautiful enough to express their Christmas joy
All day and all night long they worked
And at midnight the gentle carol Silent Night was born
The pure clear tones echoed through the hills
And the world has been captured by the beauty of that simple song ever
since.
Silent NightSilent Night
By Joseph Mohr
Silent night, holy night,
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child,
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night,
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream from heaven afar,
Heav'nly hosts sing Alleluia;
Christ the Savior is born.
Christ the Savior is born.
Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love's pure light.
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace.
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

I've just got to tell you what I saw last night,
I wish I was guessing, but I know that I'm right
She walked this place with the smile on her face,
and I wonder'd why she was alone.
Every man watched as she swayed on by
the way she was looking every woman could cry.
And then I saw her sit down with their lawyer
and I knew what was going on!
She is single again!
Hold on to your man.
She'll make us worried wives,
and bring us broken lives,
and hearthaches that never end
She is single again!
She's no woman's friend
Oh, she is making her move,
she is got nothing to lose.
Look out, she's single again!
Well, is this number four? Is this number five?
Tell me how many husbands has she buried alive.
She uses the favors that the good Lord gave her
with the Devil's desire.
I know she's thinking she's on top of the world,
I've seen her working, then I'm warning you, girls:
She is single again! She's got a way with men,
but she'd better stay away from mine.
She is single again!
Hold on to your man.
She'll make us worried wives,
and bring us broken lives,
and hearthaches that never end.
She is single again!
She's no woman's friend
Oh, she is making her move,
she is got nothing to lose.
Look out, she's single again!
You'll know what I mean!

A penny for my thoughts you say
You want to know what I could be thinking
But as I speak the music starts to play
And the words just somehow slip away
Chorus:
Read my mind
It will tell you that I love you and
You're all I ever wanted in a man
You'd see how I feel
What my head won't let my heart reveal
If only you could read my mind
One look from you and look at me
I'm trembling like a little girl
I tell myself if I can just believe
Any day now you'll fall in love with me
Repeat Chorus
Tell me if you feel the same way I do
And tell me that I'm not mistakenly taken with you
You're all I ever wanted in a man
You see, all I need is everything you are to me
If you could somehow read my mind
You would see what I can't seem to say
If only you could, if you would read my mind
Read my mind

He's tall dark and dangerous
He's a love thief on the run
He's a moonlight bandit
Brother to the devil's son
He'll cover you with sweet talk
Tell you what you want to hear
Then he'll take your smiling face
And he'll cover it with tears
Oh they call him poison sugar
Cause there's poison in his kiss
Oh you ladies warn your daughters
About the stranger with the poison lips
His hands warm your body like the morning Georgia sun
You'll think you found forever in his arms before he's done
With honey dripping off his words
Your passion takes him home
His lying lips won't tell you
You'll be waking up alone
Repeat Chorus
You could find him on a dark street
You could meet him at the store
He could even wake you up
Knocking on your door
Well, I'm talking from experience
I'm a victim of his kiss
I'm just one of the many
He's loved and left like this
Repeat Chorus x3

(Liz Hengber/James Dean Hicks/Anthony Smith)
The sound of your voice the touch of your skin
If we go there it will start all over again
So don't even call there no need for checking in
If it's really over let it just be over
No,we won't be sharing coffee
Or having lunch from time to time
I won't ask about your family
Please don't ask me about mine
This is never what I wanted
And it's killing me to say
It just has to be this way
We gave all we could we fought the good fight
But no matter how we loved we couldn't get it right
It hurts to let go but it's harder hangin' on
I don't want it to be over we know that it's over
No,we won't be sharing coffee
Or having lunch from time to time
I won't ask about your family
Please don't ask me about mine
This is never what I wanted
And it's killing me to say
It just has to be this way
And even if I change my mind
Don't let me hurt me one more time
Stay away from me be as cold as you can be
No,we won't be sharing coffee
Or having lunch from time to time
I won't ask about your family
Please don't ask about mine
This is never what I wanted
And it's killing me to say
It just has to be this way
Oh,it just has to be this way

I told this heart of mine
Our love would never be
But then I hear a voice
And something stirs inside of me
Somehow I can't resist
The memory of your kiss
I guess my heart has a mind of its own
No matter what I do
No matter what I say
No matter how I try
I just can't turn the other way
When I'm with someone new
I always think of you
I guess my heart has a mind of its own
You're not in love with me
So why can't I forget
I'm just your used to be
It's wrong and yet
I know forgetting you
Would be a hopeless thing
For I'm a puppet
And I just can't seem to break the strings
I say I'll let you go
But then my heart says no
I guess my heart has a mind of its own
I guess my heart has a mind of its own

Well you say you're from the city
Chicago is your home
Hey i'm a country girl
Over oklahoma way
Oh there are miles and miles between us
But that don't mean a thing
When those guitars start to play
Oh sweet sounds of freedom
Ringing through the air
Sending out a message to us all
We don't have a curtain
Made of iron or stone
We are not divided by a wall
Chorus:
So come on tell me

Hey, hey, hey
From l.a. to broadway
Hey, hey, hey
Let the music lift you up
Hey, hey, hey,
Whoa everybody's singin'
Hey, hey, hey,
Let the music lift you up
When you're feelin' low
Hit that radio
Let the music lift you
Let the music lift you
Up, way up, way up
There are books that tell us
What makes this whole world turn
And how heaven holds the star wars
But there's no explanation
Lord it's still a mystery
How a song can touch your heart
Repeat chorus
Let the music lift you
Let the music lift you

The lights of Laredo dance on the water
and shine in a young man's eyes.
Who stand on the border and dreams of paradise.
He's heard crazy stories of how people live over in the promised land.
He heard they eat three meals a day, just across the Rio Grande.
He's got a wife named Maria, and a baby
named Rose, and another one to feed on the way.
Two willing hands, that couldn't find work today.
He stares at the river and curses the future,
that he can't understand.
He knows the child would have a chance, just
across the Rio Grande.
It's only a river,
that's not so deep or wide.
A boy can throw a stone across and
reach the other side. It's just some
muddy water, cutting through the land.
But a man can make a dream come true
just across the Rio Grande.
The lights of Laredo dance on the water and
shine in a young man's eyes. Who stand on the
border and dreams of paradise.
He's heard crazy stories of how good life is
over in the promised land, and
sometimes it seems like God must live just
across the Rio Grande.
Repeat Chorus

(Karen Staley)
The whole night in the kitchen
Saying words we'll both regret
And you scream you we're leaving
And you cursed the day we met
The sound goes above the slamming door
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
So loud it made us stop
It was the sound of a teardrop
Chorus:
When I heard her crying
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her crying
Well I'd have given anything
For time to erase
When I turned around and saw
Those little tears roll down her faceOh my heart nearly broke in two
When she said
Mommy what did I do
To make you and daddy mad
Oh I'm sorry I was bad
I looked at you and you looked at me
And we felt each other's shame
Kneeling down to hold our child
Said she was not to blame
Now sometimes when we're angry
And say things that aren't true
We still love each other
And baby we love you
Repeat Chorus

Red sun a-rising, over the hill
I've had enough of this desert to last from now until
I'm tired of living day-to-day and hand-to-mouth
This could be the day I finally find my way out
Chorus:
I'm gonna climb that mountain high
I'm gonna see what's on the other side
I'm gonna kiss this town good-bye
I'm gonna climb that mountain
How I arrived here, heaven only knows
Seems more like the kind of place the devil would've chose
To spend my life here, is more than I can do
I know somewhere down the road my dream will come true
Repeat Chorus
If I stay here forever
What will I have to show
But if I make it over
Then everyone will know
I'm gonna climb that mountain high
Repeat Chorus

At an antique desk
An old man sits alone
It's Christmas Eve
And it's almost time to go
He signs his name to a letter he just wrote
Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow
Chorus:
I want peace on earth for Christmas
In a world where there's not one hungry child
They would hope and faith
Conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love
Then he walks outside
And he climbs up on his sleigh
And calls out to his reindeer
Off they fly away
Oh tonight he'll make a million dreams appear
While he wishes that his own dreams would come true this year
Repeat Chorus
That they would hope and faith
Conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love

I set my mind to it
Said "I wasn't gonna do it"
No how, no sir, no way
I wouldn't give my heart up
Gonna keep my guard up
And save it for another day
Then you walked in
With that crazy grin
And everything I swore before
Got lost in your eyes
And flew right out the door
Suddenly I heard the love songs
Playing real soft on the jukebox
Somebody ordered up a moonlight
And painted stars all across the sky
Is it gravity or destiny?
Either way there's nothing I can do
Looks like I picked the wrong night
Not to fall in love with you
I briefly resisted
But my heart insisted
It was gonna be giving in
Hard as I was trying
There was no denying
Which one of us would win
You came up beside me
And asked if I'd be
Open to have a dance
Right then I knew
This thing was out of my hands
Suddenly I heard the love songs
Playing real soft on the jukebox
Somebody ordered up a moonlight
And painted stars all across the sky
Is it gravity or destiny?
Either way there's nothing I can do
Looks like I picked the wrong night
Not to fall in love with you
Suddenly I heard love songs
Playing real soft on the jukebox
Somebody ordered up a moonlight
And painted stars all across the sky
Is it gravity or destiny?
Either way there's nothing I can do
Looks like I picked the wrong night
Not to fall in love with you
Oh looks like a wrong night

It's all around you now, but you don't know it
It's tugging at your heart, but you don't show it
It's just a matter of time
It's gonna hit you right between the eyes
You'll wake up in the middle of the night
I'll be the only thing on your mind
Won't be able to shake it loose
When love gets a hold of you
Before you have your first cup of coffee
You're gonna pick up the phone and call me
Won't believe what you say and do
When love gets a hold of you
Cause it's gonna be written all over your face
All your friends gonna tell you how much you've changed
Feeling things that you can't deny
Going crazy and you don't know why
You'll wake up in the middle of the night
I'll be the only thing on your mind
Won't be able to shake it loose
When love gets a hold of you
Before you have your first cup of coffee
You're gonna pick up the phone and call me
Won't believe what you say and do
When love gets a hold of you
It gets a hold of you
It's just a matter of time
It's gonna hit you right between the eyes
You're driving home at the end of the day
You'll find yourself coming by my place
Yeah, you always have a good excuse
When love gets a hold of you
Once you're standing inside my door
Won't remember what you came here for
Can't control what you say and do
When love gets a hold of you
Yeah gets a hold of you
Gets a hold of you
Gets a hold of you

Oh ain't life wonderful
When everything is right
But sometimes wonderful
Can fall apart sometimes
When your troubles knock you down
Pick yourself up off the ground and
Walk on
Walk on
Nothing ever stays wrong that long
Walk on
Oh walk on
Don't just stand there in the storm
Walk toward the light till you find the sun
And you'll be better off in the long run
And walk on
Oh it's a heartache when love comes to an end
But even though your heart breaks
You know it's gonna mend
Keep the faith right through goodbye
And don't you ever break your stride
Walk on
Walk on
Nothing ever stays wrong that long
Walk on
Oh walk on
Don't just stand there in the storm
Walk toward the light till you find the sun
And you'll be better off in the long run
And walk on
Walk on
Walk on
Nothing ever stays wrong that long
Walk on
Oh walk on
Don't just stand there in the storm
Walk toward the light till you find the sun
And you'll be better off in the long run
And walk on
Walk on
Walk on
Ohhh walk on
Walk on

I didn't see the fire burn to ashes
Couldn't feel the winds of change
I was lost inside the passion
Blinded by a memory of a flame
Guess I should of felt it when you touched me
Should of seen it in your eyes
I beleived you really loved me
Why can't i beleive you said goodbye
Why is the last one to know
The first one to cry and the last to let go
Why is the one left behind the one left alone
With no one to hold
The last one to know
Now it would be easier to face the morning
If you were holding me tonight
But you left me without a warning
Holding on to a heartache while she's holding you tight
Why is the last one to know
The first one to cry and the last to let go
Why is the one left behind the one left alone
With no one to hold

She came in lookin' good and lookin' around
She's checkin' out every man in the room right now
Don't go tellin' her about right or wrong
She's been alone way to long
The heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort
In the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of a love in sight
She hears him say "Hey, can I buy you a drink?"
And sees the pale white circle where he wears his ring
She knows he's dealin' her a dangerous hand
The consequences of a one night stand
The heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort
In the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of a love in sight
From somewhere deep inside she tells him no
Before she starts to cry she turns to go
The heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort
In the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter

The greatest man I never knew
Lived just down the hall
And everyday we said hello
But never touched at all
He was in his paper
I was in my room
How was I to know he thought I hung the moon
The greatest man I never knew
Came home late every night
He never had too much to say
Too much was on his mind
I never really knew him
And now it seems so sad
Everything he gave to us took all he had
Then the days turned into years
And the memories to black and white
He grew cold like an old winter wind
Blowing across my life
The greatest words I never heard
I guess I'll never hear
The man I thought would never die
S'been dead almost a year
He was good at business
But there was business left to do
He never said he loved me

Better hang on to that matchbook with his number on it
But not for the reason you think
There'll come a day girl that you're gonna want it
To light the past up in flames
He's the lesson you learn
He's the dead end you see when you realize you made a wrong turn
He's that one last look back when you finally get over the hurt
He's the bridge you burn
He's the bridge you burn
No you're not the first one to think they can change him
Well that line of fools is so long
But you'll be the only one you have to blame when
You wake up and he's gone
He's the lesson you learn
He's the dead end you see when you realize you made a wrong turn
He's that one last look back when you finally get over the hurt
He's the bridge you burn, burn down
Then you turn around and say
Man that was a close one
He's the lesson you learn
He's the dead end you see when you realize you made a wrong turn
He's the lesson you learn
He's that one last look back when you get over the hurt
He's the bridge you burn
He's the bridge you burn
Yeah he's the bridge you burn
He's the bridge you burn

I laid there feeling sorry for myself
In a bed of Kleenex
Stuffing chocolates in my mouth
On the phone with my best friend
Cussing my ex
He broke my heart
Felt like the world had ended
I cried myself to sleep
Thinking I can't get over him
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, I ought to be in bed
With my head in the pillow crying
Over us, but I hate, hate love
Strange
Got half a mind
To spend my whole pay check
On one of those dresses
The strapless black ones
That are so famous
For teaching lessons
Drop by his place
Pick up the rest of my things
He'll tell me I look good
I'll laugh and say, yeah [incomprehensible]
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, I ought to be in bed
With my head in the pillow crying
Over us, but I hate, hate love
Strange, strange
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, I ought to be in bed
With my head in the pillow crying
Over us, but I hate, hate love
Strange
Strange, talk about luck
I woke up and the sun was shining
Strange, strange

At a diner down on Broadway they make small talk
When she brings his eggs and fills his coffee cup
He jokes about his love life
And tells her he's 'bout ready to give up
That's when she says,"I've been there before
Keep on lookin'
'Cause maybe who you're lookin' for is..."
Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there is somebody
Across town in a crowded elevator
He can't forget the things that waitress said
He usually reads the paper
But today he reads a stranger's face instead
It's that blue-eyed girl
From two floors up
Maybe she's the one
Maybe he could fall in love with
Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there
Is somebody
Now they laugh about the moment that it happened
A moment they'd both missed until that day
When he saw his future in her eyes
Instead of just another friendly face
And he wonders why
He searched so long
When she was always there at that diner waiting on
Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there

Everybody's callin' it a real big shame
She keeps lettin' him treat her that way
He's older and he's wild
She's such a pretty child
He must be thinkin' 'bout one thing
But there are stars in her eyes
'Cause she's thinkin' he might
Give her that class ring
Chorus: She's got his picture in a frame
A heart untamed
Callin' his house three times a day
She thinks it's all she'll ever dream of
And she's callin' it love
She's callin' it love
Daddy knows his baby's headed for a heartache
And that part of growin' up is learnin' from mistakes
But he can't let her go
Cause he knows
That boy's nothin' but bad news
But daddy can't control her
She's gettin' older
There's nothin' anyone can do
She might get hurt along the way
But she's gonna find true love someday
She's callin' it love
She's callin' it love
She's callin' it love

She can account for all of the men in her past
Where they are now, who they married, how many kids they have
She knew their backgrounds, family and friends
A few she even talks to now and then
But there is one she can't put her fingers on
There is one who never leaves her thoughts
And she thinks his name was John
A chance meeting, a party a few years back
Broad shoulders and blue eyes, his hair was so black
He was a friend of friend you could say
She let his smile just sweep her away
And in her heart she knew that it was wrong
But too much wine and she left his bed at dawn
And she thinks his name was John
Now each day is one day that's left in her life
She won't know love, have a marriage or sing lullabies
She lays all alone and cries herself to sleep
'Cause she let a stranger kill her hopes and her dreams
And all her friends say what a pity what a loss
And in the end when she was barely hangin' on
All she could say is she thinks his name was John

She saw it in the window,
Just a 'callin' out her name
She mowed the grass, took out the trash
And she saved, saved, saved
Bought it on Monday,
Had a gig on Friday night
In the garage, in front of her mom,
She came alive
She likes to play, she loves to rock
Yeah, she's closer to the bottom
But she's headed for the top
She's gotta dream, to be a star
Dressed in black, like a Johnny Cash
With a pink guitar
She didn't go to college,
She just up n hit the road
Where ever they were jammin'
She would go, go, go
Every single 'hole in the wall'
From here to Shreveport
She had them in the palm of her hands,
A screamin' for more
She likes to play, she loves to rock
Yeah, she's closer to the bottom,
But she's headed for the top
She's gotta dream, to be a star
Dressed in black, like a Johnny Cash
With a pink guitar
Someday she's gonna play that Grand Opry stage
Soon you'll see it hangin' next Minnie Pearl's hat
In the Country Music's Hall of Fame
Yeah eh yeah
Oh, she likes to play (play), she loves to rock (rock)
She's gotta dream (dream), to be a star (be a star)
Dressed in black, like a Johnny Cash
She's likes to play, she loves to rock
Yeah, she's closer to the bottom,
But she's headed for the top
She's gotta dream, to be a star
Dressed in black, like a Johnny Cash
With a pink guitar (pink guitar)
I said a pink guitar (with a pink guitar)
She plays a PINK Guitar

I would have waited forever
If I'd known that you'd be here
We could have shared our lives together
And held each other close all through the years
But I've met someone before you
And my heart just couldn't wait
So no matter how much I adore you
I've got to stand behind the promise that I made
Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you
When I gave my heart away
All my life I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late
I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you
I can't have you but I never will forget you
Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you
When I gave my heart away
All my life I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late
Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you
When I gave my heart away
All my life I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late

You sure know what you're doing holding me this way
And I'll go where you lead me, anywhere you say
You've got me where you want me, so darling please be kind
Before you take it all and I make that final fall
You've got to keep in mind
I'm a new fool at an old game
A kid out of school, trying to find my way
I don't know the rules, so teach me how to play
I'm just a new fool at an old game
Maybe I'm a dreamer or maybe I'm naive
But when you say you love me
I start to believe that coal can turn to diamonds
And this night will never end but if it isn't so
And I cry when you go, you've got to understand
That I'm a new fool at an old game
A kid out of school, trying to find my way
I don't know the rules, so teach me how to play

Mama stood on the front porch wringing her hands
Watched the tail lights fading on his black Trans Am
With her precious little baby taking off inside
Staring at him with stars in her eyes
She tried to tell her, but the girl might as well have been deaf
She wasn't gonna listen to a word she said
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
With a boy looking like that
He'll tell you things that you wanna hear
And there'll be no turning back
There's an oak tree down by the lake
In the shade where the wild flowers grow
What'll happen, only heaven knows
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road
It was a still black night, as dark as cold
Nobody heard her when she said "no"
She kicked and screamed and got free somehow
Tore her dress on the door when he pushed her out
She walked 13 miles on the gravel road
With tears in her eyes 20 years ago
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
With a boy looking like that
He'll tell you things that you wanna hear
And there'll be no turning back
There's an oak tree down by the lake
In the shade where the wild flowers grow
What'll happen, only heaven knows
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Somehow mama's always known
'Cause they shoulda been home an hour ago
When she pulled up, it was just going down
She turned her headlights off, didn't make a sound
She heard her baby cry "no," but he wouldn't stop
Her heart went cold, and her blood ran hot
With a pistol in her hand, she opened his door
You don't wanna see mama go to war
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
With a boy looking like that
He'll tell you things that you wanna hear
And there'll be no turning back
There's an oak tree down by the lake
In the shade where the wild flowers grow
What'll happen, only heaven knows
So don't go down
I said, don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Oh, don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Oh, don't go down Maggie Creek Road

If I were a boy
even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
and throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
and chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
and I'd never get confronted for it
cause they stick up for me
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
so they'd think that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she'll be faithful,
waiting for me to come home, to come home.
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake,
think i'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
you thought wrong
But you're just a boy
You don't understand
and you don't understand, ohhhh
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you're taking her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

Well there's a half moon starlit sky
All the conditions are just right
Our songs playing on the radio
Every beat of my heart is saying just let go
Cause when you're holding me this way
It's all I can do to just think straight
A little voice in my head is saying not so fast
If you really want this love to last
Chorus:::
I'm gonna catch my breath I'm gona count to ten
I'm gonna leave you wonderin' when you'll see me again
I'm gona say goodnight with one passionate kiss
And leave you with the strongest feeling there is
I'll give you something to miss
I'm not doin' something I'll regret
i'm playing it just hard enough to get
I'm gonna give you a little space
And let you enjoy the thrill of the chase

My cousin's gettin' married at the Methodist church
That's why I stayed home from work
I'm supposed to hold the flowers
When the new bride kisses the groom
That's what I'm supposed to do
So what are we doin' with the windows rolled down
Twenty five passionate miles from town
I love her like a sister baby but to tell the truth
I'd rather ride around with you
The guy she's gonna marry's got money to burn
His daddy's a partner in some big law firm
Yeah that's how they're goin'
To Hawaii on their honeymoon
First class to Honolulu
She ain't never even set foot on a jet
I'm a little bit jealous I confess
I'd like to fly to Hawaii
But honey if I had to choose
I'd rather ride around with you
I don't care where this road goes
No I don't wanna turn around
Let go of the wheel feel the wind blow
Don't even think about slowin' down
They're tyin' tin cans to the back of the car
Wonderin' where in the world we are
The preacher's done prayin'
And the couple's done sayin' I do
That could be me and you
There's way too many decisions to make
The length of the dress
The layers on the cake
One of these days I might get married too
But I'd rather ride around with you
I'd rather ride around with you

Everybody told me he was a dream
Picture perfect like he stepped right of the silver screen
Said that he would sweep me off my feet
But I'm still standing, no, he didn't do it for me
'Cause I don't go for all that wine and dine
With the Ray-Ban, fake tan never mind
I want a down home up with the sunrise man
A pick-up truck driving, bull riding strong steady hand
I want the Wranglers Stetson and all that stuff
I want the real McCoy, I want a cowboy
I'm tired of talking 'bout it wasting my time
On all the cheap talkers needing me, feeding me lines
Give me somebody who's tender but tough
Simple and honest knows a thing or two about love
I've seen enough to know I know what I like
It's the hard working head turning rugged type
I want a down home up with the sunrise man
A pick-up truck driving, bull riding strong steady hand
I want the Wranglers, Stetson and all that stuff
I want the real McCoy, I want a cowboy
I've seen enough to know, you know what I mean
Ride me off into the sunset that's my thing
I want a down home up with the sunrise man
A pick-up truck driving, bull riding strong steady hand
I want the Wranglers, Stetson and all that stuff
I want the real McCoy, I want the real McCoy

My world revolved around you
Every word was a promise I was hangin' on
Swept up inside a whirlwind
I just couldn't see the end till you were gone
Oh I thought I would fall apart
With shattered dreams and a broken heart
Scramblin' in the dark
Chorus:
How was I to know
That I'd be OK
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away
How was I to know
I would be this strong
I had what it takes all along
How was I to know?
What I was so afraid of
Turned out to be my freedom in disguise
Now I know what I'm made of
Guess it just took some time to realize
Oh I was blind I couldn't tell
Put too much faith in someone else
I gave up on myself
How was I to know
That I'd be ok
Thought I'd loose it all when you walked away
How was I to know
I would be this strong
I had what it takes all along
How was I to know
How was I to know
That I'd be ok
Thought I'd loose it all when you walked away
How was I to know
I would be this strong
I had what it takes all along
How was I to know

How Blue (how Blue) can you make me
How long till I heal
How Can I go on loving you when you're gone
How Blue (How Blue) can I feel
Oh honey why did you leave me
Ain't you got a heart left in your chest
I swear to you that I'm dyin'
'Cause my mind won't let my body rest
How Blue (How Blue) can you make me
How long till I heal
How can I go on loving you when you're gone
How Blue (How Blue) can I feel
If I sink any lower I'll go under
If I cry anmore I'll go blind
No there ain't no relief for this missing you grief
How long can you torture my mind
How Blue (How Blue) can you make me
How long till I heal
How can I go on loving you when you're gone
How Blue (How Blue ) can I feel
How can i go on loving you when you're gone

I remember it all very well lookin' back
It was the summer I turned eighteen
We lived in a one room rundown shack
On the outskirts of New Orleans
We didn't have money for food or rent
To say the least we were hard pressed
Then Mama spent every last penny we had
To buy me a dancin' dress
Mama washed and combed and curled my hair
And she painted my eyes and lips
Then I stepped into a satin dancin' dress
That had a split from the side clean up to my hip
It was red, velvet trimmin' and it fit me good
Standin' back from the lookin' glass
There stood a woman where
A half grown kid had stood
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down"
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down"
Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck
Then she kissed my cheek
And then I saw the tears wellin' up in her troubled eyes
As she started to speak
She looked at our pitiful shack
And then she looked at me and took a ragged breath
She said, "Your pa's run'd off and I'm real sick
And the baby's gonna starve to death"
She handed me a heart shaped locket that said
"To thine own self be true"
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my high heeled shoe
It sounded like somebody else that was talkin'
Askin', "Mama, what do I do?"
She said,"Just be nice to the gentlemen, Fancy"
"They'll be nice to you"
She said, "Here's your chance Fancy, don't let me down
Here's your one chance Fancy, don't let me down"
Lord, forgive me for what I do, but if you want out
Well, it's up to you, and don't let me down
Now your mama's gonna move you uptown
That was the last time I saw my ma
The night I left that rickety shack
The welfare people came and took the baby
Mama died and I ain't been back
But the wheels of fate had started to turn
And for me there was no way out
Weren't very long 'til I knew exactly
What my mama'd been talkin' about
I knew what I had to do
And I made myself this solemn vow
That I's gonna be a lady someday
Though I didn't know when or how
Well, I couldn't see spendin' the rest of my life
With my head hung down in shame
You know I might have been born just plain white trash
But Fancy was my name
She said," Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down"
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down"
Weren't long after a benevolent man
Took me in off the streets
One week later I was pourin' his tea
In a five room hotel suite
I charmed a king, a congressman
And an occasional aristocrat
And then I got me a Georgia mansion
In an elegant New York townhouse flat
And I ain't done bad
Now in this world there's a lot of self-righteous hypocrites
They call me bad
They criticize Mama for turning me out
No matter how little we had
But though I ain't had no worry 'bout nothin'
From now on fifteen years
Well, I can still hear the desperation
In my poor Mama's voice ringin' in my ears
"Here's your one chance Fancy, don't let me down
Here's your one chance Fancy, don't let me down"
Lord, forgive me for what I do
But if you want out, well, it's up to you
Now don't let me down, honey
Your mama's gonna move you uptown
Oh, and I guess she did

It was somethin' as simple as makin' the bed
That kicked off the voice inside her head
She was smoothin the sheet with the palm of her hand
When the thought struck home "I don't know who I am"
And she sat cross-legged on the bedroom floor n thought
There's are three people here in this house that don't need me
anymore
And she cried like a baby, in a pile of dirty clothes
Oh should She be more carefree
Should She be more sexy
Should she be more friend than mom
And the dryer was buzzin
And the tv was blarin'
And she wanted to call her mama
It was something just as simple as just checking in
To that cheap motel out on highway 10
Was it the sting of just leavin'?
Or using her maiden name
That took the fun out of runnin' away
And she cried like a baby in the tub of room 5
Oh should She be more carefree
Should She be more sexy
Should She be more friend than mom
And her head was buzzin
And the tv was blarin'
And she wanted to call her husband
It was somethin' as simple as pickin up the kids
That brought her back to earth again
She'd been to the dark side of the moon
And she had to keep it to herself
She grabbed a bucket of chicken for supper
Oh but she looked more carefree
And she looked more sexy
And she looked more friend than mom
The table talk it was buzzin'
And the tv it was blarin'
And they all sat n laughed at each other
It was something as simple as not givin' up

I might bite my lip
Look down at my shoes
I might clench my fist
Or just leave the room
Chorus:
But I'm not gonna cry
Not one single drop
Cause once i get started, I
I may never stop
I might even laugh
Right in your face
When you come out and ask
Oh if I'll be okay
Chorus:
But I'm not gonna cry
Not one single drop
Cause once I get started, I
I may never stop
Its gonna take and act of God and all I got
To keep the first tear from fallin' down
But if I don't hold the waters back the dam is gonna crack
And I'll be damned if I'm gonna drown
So I'm not gonna cry
If that's what you thought
Cause once i get started, I
I may never stop
No im not gonna cry
Not one single drop
Cause once i get start, I
I may never stop

I want your loving more and more
I want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time
I hear the sound
They're saying here he comes
He's Cathy's Clown
You know you've got to stand tall
You know a man can't crawl
And when you let her tell you lies
And you let em pass you by
You're not a man at all
She don't want your loving anymore
She don't want your kisses that's for sure
Why do you let them put you down
And let em call you Cathy's Clown
When you see me shed a tear
Then you know that I'm sincere
I just think it's kinda sad
That she's treating you so bad
And I'm the one who cares
I want your loving more and more
I want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time
I hear the sound
They're saying here he comes
He's Cathy's Clown
You're Cathy's Clown

*Lyrics below line:
=========================================
I can open doors all by myself
And I'm strong enough to face
This world without anybody's help
But why
Why would I want to
Why, Why
Would you love me like you do
I could go on livin'
Without tastin' your kiss
Get by without this moment
You touchin' me like this
But why
I could keep this feeling
Locked in my heart
I can bury these emotions
And put up my guard
But why
Why start resistin'
Why, why
Look at all I'd be missin'
I could go on livin'
Without tastin' your kiss
Get by without this moment
You touchin' me like this
But why would I do that
I'd have to be crazy
To give up all give me
What you do to me, Baby
Oh, I could go on livin'
Without tastin' your kiss
Get by without this moment
You touchin' me n holdin' me
Lovin' me like this
But why
Why would I want to baby

(feat. Don Henley)
Do you still drink whiskey?
Can I buy you a round?
If nobody's sitting here, do you mind if I sit down?
I was nervous when I saw you
I almost walked away
And now I can't believe what I'm about to say
These arms want to hold you
These lips want to kiss you
These eyes are glad to see you
Well baby I miss you
Let's drive each other crazy
Like we did back then
Why don't we get together
And break each other's hearts again?
Maybe I've had one too many
I don't want to say too much
We both know the reasons
Why we didn't keep in touch
We're no good for each other
Still it's hard to let it go
I'm trying to be strong, but babe you've got to know
These arms want to hold you
These lips want to kiss you
These eyes are glad to see you
Baby, I miss you
Let's drive each other crazy
Like we did back then
Why don't we get together
And break each others hearts again?
Loving you should be the last thing on my mind
It feels so good to let you hurt me one more time.
These arms want to hold you
These lips want to kiss you
These eyes are glad to see you
Well baby I miss you
Let's drive each other crazy
Like we did back then
Why don't we get together

(Reba)
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far
(Both)
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
(Reba)
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
(Both)
Because of you
I am afraid
(Kelly)
I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I can not cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with
(Both)
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
(Reba)
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
(Both)
Because of you
I am afraid
(Reba)
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing
(Reba)
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me,but everyone around me
(Both)
Because of you
I am afraid
(Reba)
Because of you
(Kelly)
ah ah ah ah
(Reba)
Because of you
(Kelly)

The sign says, "families welcome"
At the oaks retirement home
But mostly, no one comes 'cept on the weekends
Ruby wilson lives in 303
Where she spends most her time
But it's almost noon on sunday
And she's been sitting in the lobby since nine
Chorus:
She's all dressed up in her best hat and gloves
She's all dressed up
Watching and waiting, but nobody comes
Some days sure are lonely days
And time can move so slow
When you're all dressed up
With nowhere to go
As ruby watches all the others
Leaving with their families
The nurse tells her, it's time to come to dinner
She says she's expecting company
They're just running late
But, the nurse knows the truth too well
She just sighs and walks away

There ain't no excuse that's what my mama said
You gotta get up and get outta bed
Roll up your sleeves put your back into it
If your gonna get it done then you better get to it
No matter what it is you want to do
You got to have a little want to
Inside of you
That goes a long, long way
A little nothing I can't do...Attitude
No matter what folks say
Well big dreams do come true
All you gotta go
Is have a little want to
I remember sittin' on the livin' room floor
My brother tried to show me how to make a G chord
My hands were small, my fingers hurt
That's when he said it'll take a lot of work
But if I can do it girl, so can you
You got to have a little want to
Inside of you
That goes a long, long way
A little nothing I can't do...Attitude
No matter what folks say
Well big dreams do come true
All you gotta go
Is have a little want to
Oh now I make my living out here singing on this stage
When people ask me how I got here I just look at them and say
You got to have a little want to
Inside of you
That goes a long, long way
A little nothing I can't do...Attitude
No matter what folks say
You got to have a little want to
A little nothing I can't do...Attitude
No matter what folks say
Cause big dreams do come true
All you gotta do
Is have a little want to
That's all you gotta do
Is have a little want to
Keep that attitude

(R. Murrah, R. Leigh)
Of all the broken hearts I've had
This one hurts the worst
His love flowed like a river
Now I'm dying of thirst
If loving him too much is why
I lost him in the end
Then I hope I can live long enough
To make that same mistake again
Well they say that love can be so strong that it's the choking kind
I never thought I'd see the day when love would be a crime
Mistakes can cost a lot and it
Sometimes we lose to win
Oh I hope I can live long enough
To make that same mistake again
Oh I may go crazy missing him
Knowing that it's my fault
But how could I have loved him less
Oh I tremble at the thought
And it's amazing how I'm holding on
With the shape I'm in
Oh I hope that I can live long enough
To make that same mistake again

So here you are again
Standing at my door
You know I'll understand
Well that's what friends are for
What's he done this time
What did he say
To make you so darn mad
That you're running away
Now you say you want to be like me
Independent and free
Chorus:
But if you only knew
What a single girl goes through
The long working days and the lonely nights
The empty I love you's
Oh if you only knew what it's like to be alone
You'd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
My life looks good to you
I'm always in control
No one to answer to
But no one there to hold
You see in my eyes you are the lucky one
With loving arms that you can lean upon
I'd give anything I could to save
What you're throwing away
Cause (Repeat Chorus)
I know it's hard to face that love ain't perfect everyday
But I know a hundred girls who would gladly take your place
So (Repeat Chorus)
You'd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
If you only knew

The sun is shining down
There's not one cloud around
Morning hits me
Where I lay
Everything was green
A perfect day it seems
Yeah he's got everything his way
Oh but I've seen better days
I've seen better days
Chorus:
When the rain was pouring down
And he had his loving arms wrapped around me
I've seen better days
The neighbors come and go
They smile and wave hello
And all the kids are out to play
Lollipops and good times
They look so much like mine
But he has taken mine away
Oh and I've seen better days
Lord I've seen better days
Repeat Chorus
Oh Lord I miss 'em
I've seen better days

Now when you left everybody told me
That I'd find another to take the place of you
And they all said someone else would hold me
And I'd have a lover to love like I loved you
Chorus:
I'll believe it when I feel it
When somebody makes me feel the way you did
They say he's out there
They tell me someday I'll forget
I'll believe it when I feel it
But I haven't felt it yet
I've heard in time
Time is going to heal me
It's been forever
And I still need you now
Maybe I will someday find that feeling
We had together
Oh but I've got my doubts
Repeat Chorus
I'll believe it when I felt
But I haven't felt it yet

(M. Heeney)
These hands
You can hold them all night if you want to
And these lips
Won't mind your kisses
No they don't care
You can lay your head on my shoulder
Maybe even get a little bolder
But when it comes to my heart
Oh don't touch me there
Oh these arms
You can wrap around me gently
And your fingers
You can run them through my hair
But there's one place that's off bounds
From the last time love came 'round
When it comes to my heart
Don't touch me there
Last time I gave my heart so sweetly it broke
He broke it so completely
And even now it's more then I can bear
Now someday I know I'll try again
Someday but until then
When it comes to my heart
Don't touch me there
Oh these hands you can hold them all night if you want to
And these lips won't mind your kisses
No they don't care
You can lay your head on my shoulder
Or maybe even get a little bolder
But when it comes to my heart
Don't touch me there
Oh when it comes to my heart
Don't touch me there

Can't Stop Now (different than the version on Reba Live)
I can't say I didn't know what I was doing
I can't pretend things just got out of hand
I should of kept my distance
While I was still strong
But I got caught up in the feeling
Carrying along
But it's too late baby
I can't stop now
Well I walked right in with my eyes wide open
But I was blind when you told me you'd be mine
Just as soon as you were free
I should have slowed down
Before push came to shove
But I was already falling
Now too deep in love
And it's too late baby
I can't stop now
Chorus:
Can't stop now
Crazy heart running out of control
Can't stop now
I'll be falling apart somewhere down the road
I might be heading for a breakdown
But I can't stop now
Well I'm sitting here wondering
How I ever let myself fall
I keep hearing promises
But nothing seems to change it all
The love we made
Has got a life of it's own
It'll keep on going long after you're gone
Now it's too late baby
Can't stop now
Repeat Chorus
I might be heading for a breakdown
But I can't stop now
I might be heading for a breakdown
But I can't stop now

Grace worked down at Walmart
For thirteen years she punched that clock
Been two weeks without a day off
She never gave it too much thought
'Til one morning in the mirror
Two new lines opened her eyes
And suddenly it hit her
She still had the wings to fly
Attention late night shoppers
A two for one on broken chains
Chorus:
That's the state of grace
It's the weak made strong
It's finding what you're missing
Was right there all along
It's an open road to a better place
It's a life worth living
In the state of grace
Grace cleaned out her bank account
Bought a beat up camper truck
Turned her pink slip into personnel
Then tore her time card up
As she drove away she wondered
What New York City would be like
And would the stars really keep you up
On a clear desert night
With a front seat full of road maps
To help her lose her way
Grace knew when she looked up
There wouldn't be a sky
If the dreams we'd been given
Weren't supposed to fly

All the girls I grew up with
Got a husband house and kids
That's what everybody did after school
If I'd had a steady boyfriend
I mighta stuck around like them but
Back then I never had a reason to
L.A.'s like another planet
Had to live there to understand it
And I thought when I first landed that California's cool
Till I saw good girls gettin' outta control
Endin' up sellin' their souls
Oh no I never had a reason to
Chorus:
I never had a reason to stay
To not walk away
Nobody's heart was gonna break over me
I never had somethin' worth keepin'
Or somebody I needed
Like I'm needin' you
Baby don't you see it's true
I never had a reason to believe in love
To some love comes as a vision
To some it's a sweet baptism
Me and love had a head on collision
When I ran into you
Got some feelings I'm figurin' out
No I don't know exactly how
Until now I never had a reason to
Repeat Chorus (leave off 'in love')
Repeat Chorus

(Sunny Russ)
She can concentrate on workin'
Until her work is done
She can hold a conversation
As well as anyone
She'll fool you with sincerity
And if you didn't know her well
You would never see it
You could never tell
Chorus:
She's just looking for him
She's only rememberin'
She might look like she's ready
To fall in love again
But she's just looking for him
She keeps one eye on the road
And one on the other lane
Lookin' for his car
His memory's re-played
She searches other faces
Tryin' to find that spark
But no one new can reach her
Or fill her hollow heart
Repeat Chorus
Oh you'd better keep your distance
Don't let her reel you in
She's not quite herself now
How could she be when
Repeat Chorus

I still reach for you
In the middle of my dreams each night
But my arms come up empty everytime
And lately I talk to your memory
More than I should
If I could just forget the past I would
Cause this missing you ain't doing me no good
Chorus:
I'm so close to crazy
Right on the edge
Just one step away from going insane
But I'm not there yet
If I could just lose my mind
I wouldn't know we're through
But this close to crazy
Is far from over you
Today I caught myself
Reliving how it used to be
At a table for two just you and me
But talking to an empty chair
And laughing right out loud
Turned everybody's head and left no doubt
I'm a broken woman close to breaking down
Repeat Chorus
I still reach for you
In the middle of my dreams each night

Well there's news flying 'round
On the rosy side of town
That I have gone and found somebody new
Well ?
Against the way some people talk
I guess sometimes it's all they have to do
Chorus:
Oh there ain't no such thing
As me not loving you
Honey there ain't no such thing
As me not being true
So believe your heart and not your ears
Your heart knows what is true
There's no such thing
As me not loving you
Well a love like yours and mine
Has got to deal with the jealous kind
But I don't mind there's nothing I can do
Cause their words can do no harm
With you here in my arms
So they can talk until their talk turn blue
Repeat Chorus
(There ain't no such thing as me not loving you)

All my life I've looked at love as a fairy tale
A woman a man never never land and a storybook ending
Leading roles and my heros upon the silver screen
I played em all but always came up empty
But one of these days I'll be in a movie with 'em
Cause I believe that fantasy
Is one step from reality
For those of us who dream of love
And I believe cause I want to
There's some one man for someone who believes in love
To not give up
Even though you've heard so many say
That's the way the story goes
Chorus:
I'm lookin for a new love story
I'm lookin for a yellow brick road
That'll carry me to his door
I'm lookin for a new love story
Oh one that's never been told before
And I have searched the oceans of many a man's eyes
But I have yet to feel like more than some deserted island
I know a relationship will come for me in time
And I can't wait to see his face on my horizon
Cause one of these days he'll sail into my life
Repeat Verse 2
Repeat Chorus

Reba:
I've known about you for a while now
When he leaves me he wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be
Linda:
But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I'll never see his face in the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytimes
And sometimes I have his nights
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Linda:
But when he's with me
He says he needs me
And that he wants me
That he believes in me
Reba:
And when I'm in his arms
Oh he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me
Or am I deceiving myself
(Am I deceiving myself)
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Reba:
Oh and shouldn't I lose my temper?
Linda:
Oh and shouldn't I be ashamed?
Reba:
Cuz I have everything to lose
Linda:
And I, I have nothing to gain
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Reba:
Oh does he love you

Cool breeze on the river
Ripples to the shore
Wash away my troubles
To the sea forever more
Wind and willows whisper
Sadness is the sound
Tell the tale of my wants
Happy world that's falling down
Old man I might be going where you're bound
Chorus:
Old man river
I've come to talk again
Yes I know you're tired
Cause your journey never ends
He's just like you
He's moving all the time
And I think he's moving me out of his mind
I want to travel with you
In your deep and nimble soul
That's the only way to make it
Peaceful like before
We used to touch at midnight
But now I feel he's gone
Even though he's lying next to me I feel alone
Oh man it looks like I'm to travel alone
Repeat Chorus x2

If I had to say what love feels like
I'd say you
If I had to say what love tastes like
I'd say you
If I had to show what love looks like
That's an easy thing to do
I'd pick your favorite colors
And honey I'd paint you
If someone asked what heaven is
I'd say you
If I describe what pleasure is
I'd say you
If I had to show what a dream looks like
That's an easy thing to do
I'd pick your favorite colors
And honey I'd paint you
In Webster's book
I'd even add a word or two
Under perfect lover
I'd put see you
If I had to show my biggest thrill
That's an easy thing to do
I'd pick your favorite colors
And honey I'd paint you
I'd say you
I'd say you
If I had to show what love looks like
That's an easy thing to do
I'd pick your favorite colors
And honey I'd paint you

I walk into the kitchen
The silverware is gone
The furniture is missing
I guess you got it all uhuh
This is where it ought to hurt
Seems like every time you leave me
You try to think of something worse
Chorus:
I can't even get the blues no more
I try to worry like I did before
And nothing happens when I walk the floor
So what am I supposed to do
I toss and turn but then I fall asleep
I'm going under but it's not too deep
You want to hurt me but it's just no use
I can't even get the blues
Well this time ain't no different
The sun's up in the sky
Sitting on the back porch
Clouds are rolling by
Oh this is where it ought to rain
But it doesn't really matter
To me it's all about the same
Repeat Chorus
(You try and hurt me)
Repeat Chorus

Jamie turned 13 tonight
But she didn't blow out the birthday lights
Jamie and her momma had another big fight
She locked herself in her room
She climbed up on her windowsill
Sat and stared at the cars on the street
And listened to her own heart beat
And whispered to the moon
Am I the only one who cares what I do
Cause if I'm the only one then who can I turn to
Oh moon can you tell me that it's not just me and you
Or am I the only one who cares what I do
The moon said Jamie can't you hear yourself
You're acting like there ain't nobody else
Come on girl take a big ole breath
You know what you gotta do
There's one more thing before I go
A woman's been standing at the window below
Searching for the words to let you know
How much she loves you too
And you're not the only one who cares what you do
And I'm not the only one that you can turn to
Now Jamie please believe me
It's not just me and you
And I'm not the only one who cares
She cares too
Jamie heard her mama
Softly knocking at her door
The moon just smiled and whispered
You all don't need me anymore
I'm not the only one who cares what you do
And I'm not the only one you can tell your troubles to
I've done the best I can
Now the rest is up to you
And I'm not the only one who cares
You both care too
You both care too

Love's the only thing I know in this life
That's cut me deeper than the sharpest knife
And once again here I am and I'm paying the price for a new love
I still hurt the one I lost
Standing here on a bridge that I can't get across
And I can't burn but I will when I walk with a new love
Chorus:
I believe
It's gonna be better then ever before
Thats why I'm looking for
A new love
For this old heart
A new love
And I just can't wait to start
I wanna feel that way again
Oh when I find a new love
For this old heart of mine
Say I'm looking for a new love
Somebody tell me where I find a new love
For this old heart of mine
Love's the only thing that's ever made me cry
Nothing's ever made me feel more alive
Thats why once again here I am
Looking for the eyes of a new love
I know that somewhere in this world tonight
There's a guy, and I'd take a bus, car, a train or a flight
I'd even walk if I thought I might find a new love
Chorus:
Said I need a new love
For this ol' heart of mine
Chorus:
Oh I'm looking for a new love
For this old heart of mine
Oh I'm looking for a new love
For this old heart of mine
Say I need a new love
For this old heart of mine
Oh I'm looking for a new love
Somebody tell me where I'll find
For this old heart of mine

I stood before God, my family and friends
And vowed that I'd never love anyone else again
Only him
As pure as my gown of white I stood by his side
And promised that I'd love him till the day I died
Lord, please forgive me even though I lied
'Cause you're the only one who knows just how hard I tried
Chorus:
I had a ring on my finger and time on my hands
The woman in me needed the warmth of a man
The gold turned cold in my wedding band
It's just a ring on your finger
When there's time on your hands
When I add up all the countless nights I cried myself to sleep
And all the broken promises you somehow failed to keep
He can't blame me
He's the one who left me too many times alone
In a three bedroom prison I tried to make a home
My love slowly died but the fire inside still burned
And the arms of a stranger was the only place left to turn

I know you're tired of being all I ever wanted
You no longer feel the love I have for you
What happens now, what will I do with all the memories
And the dreams of all the things we'll never do
But I won't mention it again
I won't think about tomorrow
Just let it happen
Live each hour day by day
But let me tell you before you go, how much I love you
Then I won't mention it again
I won't mention it again
I feel my life
Has reached an early sign of autumn
In my heart the leaves are falling, love is cold
And everything that once was warm and new is gone now
Leaving nothing but this hunger in my soul

Tear drops fell on mama's note
When I read the things she wrote
She said, we miss you girl
We love you come on home
Well I didn't have to pack
I had it all right on my back
Now I'm five hundred miles away from home
Chorus:
Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from home
It's hard to tell the state I'm in
Where I'm going, where I've been
But there's a dream I've been following so long
If mama knew the things I've done
She'd forgive them everyone
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home
Repeat Chorus
Can't remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and wait
And I'm still five hundred miles away from home
If my luck had been just right I'd be with them all tonight
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home
Repeat Chorus
Lord, I'm still five hundred miles away from home

Reba
Outside the rain begins and it may never end.
So cry no more on the shore a dream will take us out to sea.
Forevermore, forevermore.
Close your eyes and dream and you can be with me.
Neath the waves, through the caves of hours.
Long forgotten now.
Chorus
We're all alone, we're all alone.
Close the window,
calm the lights and it will be allright.
No need to bother now.
Let it out, let it all begin.
And learn how to pretend.
Jose and Durval
Repetido ya. Lo antiguo pasara.
Fue amor, amantes y dolor.
Con el viento al volor. Abracame. O abracame.
Sin mirar vuelve a vivir.
Ambos sonando asi.
Sin importarnos mas.
Deja ya, regresa a vivir.
Empieza a disfrutar.
Solo yo, sola tu.
Reba
Close the window, calm the lights.
Jose and Durval
Ambos sonando asi. Sin importarnos mas.
Reba
Let it out,
let it all begin.
Jose and Durval
Empieza na disfrutar amor.
Reba
Hold me dear.
All's forgotten
now. My love.
Jose and Durval
Olvidados ya.

A soft summer evening, another time, another place
He brought her red roses on their very first date
She got carried away by the things that he said
Time would erase them but she would never forget
CHORUS 1:
And the roses heard it all
The rose in her hair, the rose in her hand
The roses in the paper on the wall
There's a story to tell if the roses could talk
Somewhere close to midnight, another time, another place
She lays in the darkness with tears on her face
While he talks in his sleep confessing his love
He calls out a name that she's never heard of
Chorus 2:
And the roses heard it all
The rose in the vase, that sat by their bed
The roses in the paper on the wall
There's a story to tell if the roses could talk
She never told him
She never let him see her cry
Only the roses know
What she kept down inside
The years took their toll and the angels took her away
Now there's family and friends at a cold winter's grave
He kneels down and whispers. 'You're the only love that I've known'
As he lays a rose on a cold marble stone
Chorus 3:
But the roses heard it all
The rose from her garden, the rose in her Bible
The roses in the paper on the wall
There's a story to tell if roses could talk
What a story they'd tell if roses could talk

Stacks of paper, my name in bold print
Yours right besides it on this document
Too many lawyers, too many angry words
So much we didn't say, so much we never heard
Do you remember
When I was all that you were living for
Back before the war
CHORUS:
Back before the broken vows
The shattered trust, this empty house
When nothing really mattered but us
Back before we climbed too high
My dreams were yours, your dreams were mine
back before we fell so out of touch
Back before the war
Children's laughter trailing down the hall
Tiny footsteps, God how I miss it all
It's not as simple as who's right and who's to blame
How could we fly so high to be shot down in flames
Do you remember
When you were all that I was living for
Back before the war
Repeat Chorus
Stacks of paper, I guess this is where we sign
Strange how your signature so closely matches mine
I never dreamed our love would ever come to this
Avoiding each other's eyes still craving your tenderness
Do you remember
When love was all that we were living for
Back before the war
Back before the war

In this life we all go through hard times
When we struggle and pray for a lifeline
Just needing someone
To show us the way
To you the glass might seem half empty
But it's half full to those without any
So hold on to hope
And try to have faith
Oh, you've got to have faith
Chorus:
If there's just one secret to living
Whoever you are
It's learning the meaning of giving
With an open heart/With an open heart
If you offer the best part of yourself
Even when you don't have anything else
Honest and true
It'll come back to you
Love comes back to you
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
With your arms wide open
The world opens wide
And you'll believe it deep inside
That there's just one secret to living
Whoever you are
It's finding that true joy in giving
With an open heart/With an open heart

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
That your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered
Will soon deliver you
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will calm a storm with His hand?
Did you know
That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby
You've kissed the face of God
Mary, did you know?
The blind will see
The deaf will hear
And the dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of the Lamb
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will one day rule the nations?
Did you know
That your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
This sleeping child you're holding
Is the Great I Am
Oh Mary did you know?

Hold on cause this feels just like a first love
There's no way to rehearse love
We'll just learn as we go
I know you can see it in my eyes
I've been looking in your eyes
The feeling is starting to grow
Chorus:
Hold on
Love can take us up so high
But it can take us down so low
You either laugh or you cry
Hold on
Cause love's a chance that we're taking
And I don't think we're mistaking
We'll never know till we try
Hold on
Cause here comes all the conversations
The painful midnight confessions
That leave you feeling so sad
I know we can make it forever
If we just face it together
Take the good with the good
Repeat Chorus x2

(I'll Open This One For You)
(Arranged by Reba McEntire)
Now kids hang on just a second before we start
You know there's a reason we are all here in front of Grandma and
Grandpa's
Christmas tree
And if Trevor and E.P. would quit fighting long enough and be real
quiet
This little song might help ya understand
Long ago in a stable there was a baby being born
His parents were Joseph and Mary
And Joseph's big ole heart was torn
Cause he couldn't find a decent place for Mary to have her child
But Mary said it just seemed just right and she blessed it with her
smile
Chorus:
Cause what made it special was the baby in her arms
God sent Him down to give the world a second chance for you and I
That's why we have Christmas at this time each year
It's the baby's birthday party that brings us so much cheer
Now kids the presents that all of you exchange on Christmas
Represents the gifts that baby Jesus received the night he was born
He got all his presents from three wise men
Who followed a star
And walked a long long way to the stable
So everytime you tear open one of your presents
Think about that baby and say
Happy birthday Jesus
I'll open this one for you
Repeat Chorus
OK all together now
Happy Birthday Jesus
I'll open this one just for you

I can't get used to the hustle
I try to keep my actions straight
I get caught in the bustle
I do things I really hate
Just when I think I'm sinking
I hear a voice inside my head
Says don't do what you're thinking
Send your thoughts to me instead
Chorus:
Somebody up there likes me
Somebody up there knows what I need
When my worldly head spins around
He sends his love down
You know I'm only human
That's all I always say
It's just excuses
So I can do things my own way
But when I fall and stumble
I know I will be saved
No my world won't crumble
I'll make it through the hardest days
Repeat Chorus
I wish I'd known all along
But it's much better late
Than to never know you're wrong
Repeat Chorus x2
He sends his love down
Somebody up there likes me

When the evenin'
Sun goes down
You can find me
Hangin' around
Oh the night life
Ain't no good life
But it's my life
Many people
Just like me
Dreaming of
Old used to be's
Oh the night life
It ain't no good life
But it's my life
Oh listen to the blues they're playin'
Oh listen to what the blues are sayin'
Mine is just
Another scheme
In a world
Of broken dreams
Oh the night life
It ain't no good life
But it's my life
(Play me some blues boys)
Oh listen to the blues they're playin'
Oh listen to what the blues are sayin'
When the evenin'
Sun goes down
You can find me
Hangin' around
Oh the night life
It ain't no good life
But it's my life
The night life
Ain't no good life
But it's my life
Oh I love that song. You know I told you about the men
who have influenced me in my music.
Well now I want to tell you about the women.
And there's lots of them.
But this first one I wanna tell you about,
I admired her for a long time .
First of all, it was because of her songwriting.
I liked the way she always told a story in her songs.
And then in her singing.
I always loved to listen to her sing.
She had a different style, a different quality about it.
She's so witty, so personable and you know
no matter whether it's her singing,
her songwriting, or her acting,
I'll always be a big fan of Dolly Parton!

Chorus:
Jolene, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene
I'm beggin' of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin
And eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
There's nothing I can do to keep from cryin'
When he calls your name, Jolene
And I could easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
Chorus
Well you can have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene,
Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene,
Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Even though you can
Jolene
Jolene

My nerves are shot, the coffee's cold.
Wish that I could be so bold as to
walk right up to you and say what I think.
I don't now what you think
of me. And I know everyone can see I'm crazy
about you and always will be.
Where's women's lib when you need it the most.
Or was it mama who said
you're not suppose to flaunt yourself like that
as if there's no in between.
Or maybe it's not that I'm afraid, it's just that the last move I made
embarrased me to death and made me want to hide.
So if you've ever been embarrassed before meet me half way
and I'll know for sure. At least
we'll still be friends if I mess up again.
Cause it ain't easy meeting
someone new. Especially when that someone is you.
It ain't easy by being by yourself. It's no fun to be alone,
and I don't want to be alone.
Cause it ain't easy meeting someone new.
Especially when that someone is
you. It ain't easy by being by yourself. It's no fun to be alone,
and I don't want to be alone.
My nerves are shot, the coffee's cold.
Wish that I could be so bold as to walk
right up to you and say what I think.

If only I'd have thought to send you roses
For no reason just to send you roses
And if only I thought to say more often I love you
But I just assumed you knew
Chorus:
And if only I'd have tried a little harder
If only we'd have talked a little more
If only I'd have held you closer
Then maybe I'd be holding you tonight
If only you, if only I
The saddest words are not goodbye
They're if only
If only we hadn't just pretended there was nothing wrong
It might not have ended
If only we'd have given more attention
To the small things
We might have it all today
Repeat Chorus
Instead of silence
There'd been angry words
If we had only listened
We just might have held our hearts
Repeat Chorus

It's a dangerous world we live in
Crime is everywhere
There's always some sad story going down
You can read it in the paper
You can see it on the air
It's an evil epidemic going round
But nobody seems to notice
The saddest crime of all
Oh just how many times a day
Someone takes their love away
And the national statistics
Never put it in the chart
But every second someone breaks a heart
There's a woman out there somewhere
Who feels she lost her life
But her man just shot her world down
And it hurts
There's a guy who just got taken
And it cuts him like a knife
Some girl stole his heart and left him
Without a world
They don't call it a crime of passion
But it kills you just the same
It's murder when a true love dies
Right before your very eyes
And as soon as one is over
Another one will start
Every second someone breaks
Every second someone breaks a heart
If you've got someone who loves you
Be careful all the time
Do you know where your love is tonight
Cause there's always someone trying
To find the perfect crime
And you never know just when
They'll strike
So you better watch your woman
And you better watch your man
Cause no one's safe when love's at stake
Anybody's heart can break
And the next time that it happens
You're not the losing part
Every second someone breaks a heart
Every second someone breaks a heart
Every second someone breaks a heart

Looking back over the years
Of All the things I've always meant to say
But words didn't come easily
So many times through empty fears
Of all of the nights I tried to pick up the phone
So scared of who might be answering
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
Chorus:
Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
The heart won't lie
Long after tonight
Will you still hear my voice through the radio
Old desires make us act carelessly
Long after tonight, after the fire
After the scattered ashes fly
Through the four winds blown and gone
Will you come back to me?
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
Repeat Chorus:

I could stop right here turn this car around.
Walk back through the door put my suitcase down.
Tell you I'm sorry and things would be alright I know.
But it all comes down to the lesser of the two.
Alone by myself or alone with you.
And if I have to be lonely I'd rather be lonely alone.
CHORUS
I'd rather miss someone out on this highway.
Than someone who's sittin' just three feet away.
And I'd rather be fightin' some old memories,
than to wonder if you ever really love me.
I could keep going on like I have all along.
Telling myself that there's nothin' wrong.
But if I have to be lonely I'd rather be lonely alone.
Repeat CHORUS
I don't know what I'll do, I don't know where I'll go.
There's a lot I'm not sure of but
one thing I know. If I have to be lonely,
I'd rather be lonely alone. If I have to be lonely, I'd
rather be lonely alone.

How did it happen
When did we lose it
The love we looked for so long
I'm sorry I called you
But it's the first night you see
How does it feel to be free
How does it feel now
To reach out for someone
And find there's nobody there
Is it weighing on you
Cause it's sure killing me
Tell me how does it feel to be free
Funny how love is so hard to find
And yet so easy to lose
Maybe in time this old heart of mine
Can learn to be free without you
How did it happen
When did we lose it
The love we looked for so long
I'm sorry I called you
But I just have to see
How does it feel to be free
I'm sorry I called you
But it's the first night you see
Now how does it feel to be free

Like a rare piece of crystal
Like a fine china cup
I kept your memory all safely locked up
Afraid I could never love somebody new
I was trying to save what I had left of you
Then he broke your memory last night
I felt it shatter inside
I guess he held me a little too right
He broke your memory last night
The moment he touched me with his gentle hands
Your memory crumbled like a house built on sand
He swept all the pieces of your love away
And then gave me his love to put in it's place
Cause he broke your memory last night
I felt it shatter inside
I guess he held me a little too right
He broke your memory last night

Well you look like the kind who's got an eye for a bargain
A kind of guy who likes to shop around
Well I got me this old heart
That I'm putting on the market
And I'll make you a deal you can't turn down
Chorus:
Have I got a deal for you
A heart that's almost like brand new
And I'll let it go so cheap
You'll think you stole it 'fore you're through
Have I got a deal for you
Well you could search the whole world over
And never find another like it
It's got a built in lifetime guarantee
It's a one time only offer
And darling once you've tried it
You're gonna fall in love with it you'll see
Repeat Chorus

If I had only known
It was the last walk in the rain
I'd keep you out for hours in the storm
I would hold your hand
Like a life line to my heart
Underneath the thunder we'd be warm
If I had only known
It was our last walk in the rain
If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again
I'd memorize each thing you ever said
And on those lonely nights
I could think of them once more
Keep your words alive inside my head
If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again
You were the treasure in my hand
You were the one who always stood beside me
So unaware I foolishly believed
That you would always be there
But then there came a day
And I turned my head and you slipped away
If I had only known
It was my last night by your side
I'd pray a miracle would stop the dawn
And when you'd smile at me
I would look into your eyes
And make sure you know my love
For you goes on and on
If I had only known
If I had only known
The love I would've shown

The sign says, 'families welcome'
At the Oaks Retirement Home
But mostly, no one comes 'cept on the weekends
Ruby Wilson lives in 303
Where she spends most her time
But it's almost noon on Sunday
And she's been sitting in the lobby since nine
Chorus:
She's all dressed up in her best hat and gloves
She's all dressed up
Watching and waiting, but nobody comes
Some days sure are lonely days
And time can move so slow
When you're all dressed up
With nowhere to go
As Ruby watches all the others
Leaving with their families
The nurse tells her, it's time to come to dinner
She says she's expecting company
They're just running late
But, the nurse knows the truth too well
She just sighs and walks away
Repeat Chorus

I don't mind to give you a slow dance or two
I'm sorry I'm not at my best
I know you can see I'm incredibly blue
But I'm not that lonely yet
I look in your eyes while you're dancing with me
And try to fulfill your request
But don't ask for favors when it's time to leave
Cause I'm not that lonely yet
Now don't say you want me
I've heard that before
The words weigh like stones in my head
There may come a time when I'll think of you more
But I'm not that lonely yet
It's nice to be dancing
To waltzes again
And maybe it helps to forget
You've opened the door but I'm not waltzing in
Cause I'm not that lonely yet
No I'm not that lonely yet

Been to Colorado where the mountains touch the sky
And I've done other things in life to lift my spirits high
But nothing that I've ever tried to do
Has taken me as high as loving you
Chorus:
Cause you lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
When you gently lay me down
You lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
Yes you make my world go round
I never try to get away on daydreams anymore
Love's taken me to places that I've never been before
But if it's not heaven when you're holding me
It's the way that heaven oughta be
Repeat Chorus
And we never leave the ground
Up, up, up, up to heaven
Yes you make my world go round

Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep a comin' around
Playin' with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me
Repeat Chorus
You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again
You claim you still care for me
But your heart and soul need to be free
Now that you got your freedom baby
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else
Why don't you be a man about it
And set me free
You don't care a thing about me
You're just using me
So get out get out get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Keep me hangin' on
Keep me hangin' on

Now I've never been in with the fast crowd
I've never been closer than just a little over the line
I know those nights I'd find great temptations
I go home to bed alone
Pull the covers up over my mind
I let it go by and said I'd save my feelings
But until I met you
I hardly used them at all
I should say no
Oh whoah I don't want to
Honey you will be the first one
To watch this angel fall
So you can take the wings off me
Lay them down so carefully
Hold me close tonight you'll see
I am yours and you can take the wings off me
Oh you can take the wings off me
Oh lay them down so carefully
Oh I should say no
Oh whoah I don't want to
I am yours and you can take the wings off me

(Norro Wilson, Wayland Holyfield)
This song is Mary and I's themesong! It epitomizes
our friendship through and through!
I know sometimes I'm like a child
I disappoint you so
And how you keep forgiving me
I'll never never know
When I stumble and I fall
And need love desperately
You are always there for me
Chorus:
Like an oak in the wind
Like an old familiar friend
Like a harbor in a wild and raging sea
Darlin' you are always there for me
When I take your love for granted
Like I often do
It's not that I don't need you so
It's not I don't love you
It's just that I'm a fool sometimes
Just too blind to see
That you are always there for me
Repeat Chorus x2

On a cool gray morning, I watched with my own eyes
As he headed out the driveway and finally out of my life
Oh I knew he'd soon be miles from my mind
So why should tears start fallin' after all this time
Chorus:
How can a memory last this long
Will he ever go away
Even the stars burn out and fall
Will he ever go away
How can someone who left so long ago
Still be here with me today
Will he ever go away
Shouldn't I start living my life for myself
Shouldn't it be easy to fall in love with someone else
Oh why should it be his touch I feel in the dark
And will his voice always echo through my heart
Repeat Chorus:

He takes me to the places you and I use to go
He tells me over and over that he loves me so
He gives me love that I never got from you
He loves me too
His love is true
But why can't he be you
He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind
And I'm lucky to have such a guy I hear it all the time
And he does all the things that you would never do
He loves me too
His love is true
But why can't he be you
Oh he's not the one who dominates my mind and my soul
And I should love him so cuz he loves me I know
But his kisses leave me cold
He sends me flowers
Calls on the hour
Just to prove his love
And my friends say that when he's around
I'm all he speaks of
And he does all the things that you would never do
He loves me too
His love is true
But why can't he be you

Don't tell me that time will ease the pain
Don't tell me the sunshines after the rain
Don't sit there and tell me
I'll love again someday
Whose heartache is this anyway
Don't say that all things happen
For the best
And don't talk of silver linings
Don't tell me I'll forget
Don't say don't you worry
Cause everything will be OK
Whose heartache is this anyway
Chorus:
Cause I'm not in the mood for sympathy
At least not from the one who's leaving me
So don't try to make it easy
Don't search for words to say
Whose heartache is this anyway
Well you say that'll always care for me
That I'll always be special
Well that's not what I need
So why don't you just go now
You've done enough today
And whose heartache is this anyway
Repeat Chorus
Why don't you just go now
You've done enough today
And whose heartache is this anyway

I'm not wasting my time on earthly longing
Let that glory leave me be
I'm just tasting my life story
Just a page in history
Chorus:
Whoever's watching
Must be watching over me
Whoever's watching
Must be watching over me
Well I'm not hurting like I used to
I got lucky can't you see
Love came searching
It could choose you
Love's the greatest victory
Repeat Chorus
I always look to the sky
And held my head high
Had to be what I had to be
Till the day that I die
Yes I wonder why
Somebody's watching
Watching over me
Repeat Chorus (First two lines)
Well if you know me
You know I've squandered
Everything that's dear to me
Still I stand here in total wonder
How it's all come back to me
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus (First two lines)

The kid down the street mowes the grass every week
The neighbor next door fixed the roof where it leaked
Job's going fine and the bills are all paid
And everyone thinks that I'm doing OK
There's a guy down at work
He's asked me out once or twice
I haven't said yes
But I'm thinking I might
And on my way home I thought I saw you walk by
If only I could get you out of my mind
Chorus:
What in the world am I gonna do about you
Oh your memory keeps coming back
From out of the blue
Oh well I try
And I try
But I still can't believe that we're through
So tell me what in the world am I gonna do about you
What am I gonna do about you
I went to the store
But it wasn't much fun
It doesn't take long when you're shopping for one
Standing in line I thought I saw you walk in
And that's when it started all over again
Repeat Chorus (Darling what am I gonna do about you)

You come to me just as a friend
Cause you're looking for someone's shoulder you can cry on
Well she broke your heart
Now it's the end
And you say that you've got an aching heart
Like the world has never known
Chorus:
But baby what do you know about heartache
What do you know about pain
What do you know about the sleepless nights
And walking alone in the rain
What do you know about crying
What do you know about being blue
When you don't even know about the love I feel for you
You say I may not understand
How it feels to see your love in the arms of another
But you don't know the many times
That I had to hide all my tears inside
When I saw you with your lover
Repeat Chorus
When you don't even know about the love that I feel for you
Repeat Chorus

I saw you softly smiling
And the band begins to play
Your eyes they seem to whisper
Let's dance the night away
We two stepped and we polkad
But the magic happened when
We waltzed together and knew
That we never be changing partners again
Chorus:
So while the music's playing
Let's hold each other tight
You're heart and mine
In three quarter mine
And we'll waltz in love tonight
The day is finally over
The kids are all in bed
The troubles of our busy life
Are dancing in our heads
We barely hear the radio
Till the waltz begins to play
And there's no concealing
The magic, the feeling
Just sweeps our hearts away
Repeat Chorus
Your heart and mine
In 3 quarter time
And we'll waltz in love tonight

Oh, you've sold me you hold me
You've told me I'll be getting all your love
You can go wrong
If you hold on for so long
Just because you hate to give up
Do I love you ooh ooh I'm afraid I do
Do you love me, once upon a time
I was sure I knew
Chorus:
I don't like what I been thinkin'
If it's true, Oh you know I'm a fool
Face to face you promise me forever
But the ring's still sittin' in a store downtown
And I'm still sittin' here
Waitin' for the deal to go down
I get lonely and lonely is only
The hardest way to spend the night
Then you call me
You call me and stall me
And swear you're gonna make it right
So I hang on
Oh that's just the way things are
But the pay off I been waitin' for
Just might break my heart
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Is there someone out there I don't know about
Convince me babe beyond the shadow of a doubt
I don't like what I been thinkin'
If it's true, Oh you know I'm a fool
Face to face you promise me forever
But the ring's still sittin' in a store downtown
And I'm still sittin' here
Waitin' for the deal to go down
Waitin' for the deal to go down

The sound of your voice, the touch of your skin
If we go there it will start all over again
So don't even call, there's no need for checking in
If it's really over, let it just be over
No, we won't be sharing coffee
Or having lunch from time to time
I won't ask about your family
Please don't ask about mine
This is never what I wanted
And it's killing me to say
It just has to be this way
We gave all we could, we fought the good fight
But no matter how we loved, we just couldn't get it right
It hurts to let go, but it's harder hangin' on
I don't want it to be over, we know that it's over
No, we won't be sharing coffe
Or having lunch from time to time
I won't ask about your family
Please don't ask about mine
This is never what I wanted
And it's killing me to say
It just has to be this way
And even if I change my mind
Don't let me hurt me one more time
Stay away from me, be as cold as you can be
No, we won't be sharing coffe
Or having lunch from time to time
I won't ask about your family
Please don't ask about mine
This is never what I wanted
And it's killing me to say
It just has to be this way
Oh, it just has to be this way

Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick
First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick
Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Also a ball and a whip that cracks
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick

I left Oklahoma driving in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was going to Arizona maybe on to California
Where the people all live so fine
My baby said I was crazy
My moma called me lazy
I was gonna show'em all this time
Cause you know I ain't no fooling
I don't need no more school'in
I was born to just walk the line
Chorus:
Livin on Tulsa time, livin on Tulsa time
Well you know I've been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Livin on Tulsa time
Where there I was in Hollywood
Wishing I was doing good
Talking on telephone line
But they don't need me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs
Guess I'm just wasting time
Well then I got to thinking
Man I'm really sinking
And I really had a flash this time
I had no business leaving
And nobody would be grieving
If I went on back to Tulsa time
Repeat chorus

Riding up in Oklahoma
People call us blind
'Cause we believe in God and love
And old fashioned things
We still draw the line between wrong and right
And when a woman takes a husband it's for life
We met on a road from Tulsa
Travelers in the night
Well I knew we belong together
It just felt so right
There's something about this gal you ought to know
She's gonna love you
Till it snows in Mexico
Chorus:
I'm gonna love you
Till it snows in Mexico
Or till the Rio Grande freezes over
Cause darling when God made our love
He threw away the mold
And I'm gonna love you
Till it snows in Mexico
If you should ever leave me
Heaven forbid
But you don't have to worry none
About me ?
You know exactly where I'll go
I'll be waiting for the snow in Mexico
Repeat Chorus
Cause darling when He made our love
He threw away the mold
I'm gonna love you
Till it snows in Mexico

(Freddy Weller, Kim Nash, Bill Nash)
Saturday night
Out on the town
Feeling so sure of myself
Meeting some friends
Sharing some laughs
Not thinking of anything else
Then one of them leaned over my shoulder
And all at once the party was over
Chorus:
They asked about you
And suddenly it all came back to me
Then all the walls around my heart
Came crashing at my feet
When they asked about you
(Oh) They asked about you
I was doing OK
Until they asked about you
How could they know
What it would do
All they did was mention your name
And just like that
The hurting was back
That's when I knew nothing had changed
What a time for old memories to find me
Just when I thought I'd put 'em behind me
Repeat Chorus

As we sit out on the back porch
And the night begins to show
It feels good just to be here and unwind
And the sun is slowly setting
A reflection in your eyes
And when you look my way
I have to say
The thought that's crossed my mind
Chorus:
And you know there ain't no love
There ain't no love like yours for me
And it's plain my love
You've been heaven sent made specially
There ain't no love
There ain't no love like yours for me
And we'll remain in love
With the kind of love
Most lovers never see
You always sit and listen
When I feel the need to talk
When I'm feeling insecure and filled with doubt
You've got the way to make me happy
And it's right there in your smile
And love for me will always be what I can't do without
Repeat Chorus
There ain't no love like yours for me
And it's plain my love
You've been heaven sent made specially
There ain't no love
There ain't no love like yours for me
We'll remain in love..

Honey I know you tried
When you loved me tonight
But the memory slipped from your lips
So if she's on your mind
That much of the time
There ain't no future in this
There was somebody who
Took a whole lot of you
And I guess you're not over it yet
If I'm just
Standing in for a memory then
There ain't no future in this
Cause mine are the arms that hold you
Hers are the arms you miss
So if she's still the one
When it's all said and done
There ain't no future in this
So if she's still the one
When it's all said and done
There ain't no future in this

I can’t find the letters, you wrote to me in school
And that shoebox full of photographs, got lost in my last move
I gave away that old twin bed, where you and I first laid
But after all this time, I’ve still got the love we made
That old beat-up car, we dated in, has finally turned to rust
And the first rose that you gave me, has finally turned to dust
But all those tender nights we shared, are never gonna fade
Cos after all this time, I’ve still got the love we made
I re-feel every feeling, we felt when we touched
Cos even though we fell apart, I kept a part of us
I’ve held on to every time, we held each other tight
And promised, that no matter what, we’d never say goodbye
I don’t have a souvenir, although I meant to save
But right here in my heart, I’ve still got the love we made
Right here in my heart, I’ve still got the love we made.

I just got the wedding invitation there's gonna be a celebration
Like you've never seen just fit for a queen
She's got her mom and daddy's blessing she's got a long white wedding dress
And his wedding ring oh what can I bring what do you give the girl who has everything
She's got the man who used to hold me
She's got the man who told me I was his everything
She's got the man who used to love me who placed no one above me
How he made my heart sing oh what can I bring
What do you give the girl who has everything
[ fiddle ]
She'll hear his promise of forever she'll hear him say what I could never
Get him to say oh he'll say it today
She'll hold his hands and throw the flowers drink champagne till the morning hours
The queen has her king and the world on a string
So what could you give the girl who has everything
She's got the man...
What do you give the girl who has everything

We ordered up one more bottle of wine
You told your story and I thought about mine
You said when you lost her, you lost everything
It all started having a familiar ring
I asked you to take me someplace quiet
We wound up at the river for the rest of the night
Somewhere around the break of day
I could hear it coming from a mile away
Don't say that word, not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do, but you don't
It's just the fear of being alone
Reckless hearts can clear a path wider than a hurricane's aftermath
We've both traveled down that road
Well in the name of love, anything goes
So don't say that word, not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do, but you don't
It's just the fear of being alone
Like a child in the night
With no one to hold you and tell you everything's gonna be alright
I must admit it's been fun, but that's no reason to jump the gun
If this is real, time will tell
So let me bite my tongue and remind myself
Don't say that word, the one we both heard too much
You may think you do, but you don't
It's just the fear of being alone

Chorus:
Well the blues don't care who's got 'em
Tears don't care where they fall
And you don't care my heart is breaking in two
No you and the blues don't care at all
Outside my window
It's raining
Somehow the rain seems right
Inside my lonely heart is aching
Oh how I miss you tonight
Repeat Chorus
The wind don't care where it's blowing
Rivers don't care where they flow
I don't know where I'm going
Cause you don't care anymore
Repeat Chorus
Oh darling you and the blues don't care at all

Three o'clock in the mornin'
And it looks like it's gonna be another sleepless night
I've been listening to your dreams and gettin' very low
Wonderin' what I can do
Maybe I'm bein' foolish
'Cause I haven't heard you mention anybody's name at all
How I wish I could be sure it's me that turns you on
Each time you close your eyes
I've heard it said that dreamers never lie
You've been talkin' in you sleep
Sleeping in your dreams, with some sweet lover
Holdin' on so tight lovin' her the way
You used to love me
Talkin' in your sleep
With lovin' on your mind
Repeat Verse #2
'Cause (Repeat Verse #3)
'Cause (Repeat Verse #3)

Sing your song sweet music man
Cuz I won't be there to hold your hand
Like I used to
I'm through with you
You're a hell of a singer and a powerful man
But you surround yourself with people who demand so little of you
You touched my -heart- (its suposed to be soul) with your beautiful song
You even had me singing along right with you
You said I need you
Then you changed the words and added harmony
And you sang the song you had written for to someone new
~Chorus~
Nobody sings a love song quite like you do
Nobody else can make me sing along
Nobody else can make me feel that things are right when I know they're wrong
Nobody sings a love song quite like you
Sing your song sweet music man
You travel the world with your six-piece band
That does for you
What you ask them to
You try to stay young but the songs you've sung to so many people
They've all begun to come back on you
Sing your song sad music man
Your making your living doin one night stands
They're through with you
They don't need you
You're still a hell of a singer but a broken man
But you'll keep searching for that one last fan
To sing to
~Chorus~

Mama moved out
Daddy sold the house
They split up the money
And went on their own way
And all the kings horses
And all the kings men
couldn't put mama and daddy back together again
Starting over again
Where should they begin
'Cause they never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
and the kids are all grown
And the whole world cries
He got an apartment
She moved in with her sisters
He's schemin' big deals with one of his friends
While she sits at home sortin' out pieces
Of left over memories from thirty odd years
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When you've never been out on your own
Starting over again
Never any end
What will the neighbors say
They're talking talk it's small town news
They're fifty years old wrecking up a happy home
And this far down the road
You find yourself alone
Two fools
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When you've never been out on your own
Starting over again
Never any end
When your dreams are all shattered
and the kids are all grown
And all the kings horses
And all the kings men
couldn't put mama and daddy back together again

I know that you've seen love walk out the door once or twice.
I know that you've seen it all, waiting by the telephone,
you didn't get the call. Well baby
let me tell ya, you're looking
at me with suspicious eyes, but they'll never be confirmed.
If there was someone else I wouldn't be here now.
Cause you're the only one I want my arms around.
And I'm telling you the truth and now I'll tell ya why.
If there was someone else I'd be with him tonight.
No time for doubts, I'm gonna turn your heart around.
Think about you everyday. Gonna make you understand my l
ove is here to stay. We've got something going that's so hard to find.
You are the one, the only one that's on my mind.

The house stood empty on a corner
Waiting for a brand new owner
A soldier off to war who had to leave his bride alone
She couldn't buy too many nice things
On a GI bill and daydreams
But she tried until they told her
He was never coming home
Chorus:
Small two bedroom starter
Needs a little fixing
A great big yard for kids and pets to play
This one won't last too long
It's close to schools and churches
Owner leaving town
You better hurry down today
Bought by the high school teacher
Sold it to a baptist preacher
Who couldn't pay his taxes
Cause his flock had gone astray
So the banker fenced the yard in
Planted trees and half a garden
The man from Dallas kept it up
Till he moved away
Repeat Chorus
You and I we built the playroom
For the baby that came too soon
Spent money that we didn't have
Trying to make this place our own
Lord it makes me feel like dying
After all these years of trying
Honey we'll just bought this house
That we can't seem to make a home
Repeat Chorus
Small two bedroom starter
Waiting for a brand new owner

Preacher man talking about the end of time
Well, Lord knows I'm ready, it don't worry my mind
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me
You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul
Walk through darkness
I don't need no light
My faith in Jesus gonna be my guide
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of of angels watching over me
You can take me for granted
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul
River's rising but I got no doubt
My sweet Savior's gonna pull me out
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me
You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul
I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me
I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

Your mind's made up
You're gonna leave
Nothing I can say will stop you so it seems
But before you up and go
There's just something you should know
When you find that I'm the one you still need
Chorus:
One thin dime
Is all it takes
When you need someone who cares
These arms of mine
Are always open
One thin dime is all you need
And I'll be there
Oh you're chasing rainbows and I understand
When you're through I'll take you back again
I'll be waiting patiently
For when you come back to me
Ain't nobody else can love you like I can
Repeat Chorus
You know the number
I'm always home
So honey just pick up and dial that telephone
When this world treats you unkind
Get your momma on the line
There ain't no need for you to ever be alone
Repeat Chorus
These arms of mine
Oh they're always open
One thin dime is all you need
And I'll be there

She was good at late night listening
When he'd call her on the phone
She was good to come and get him
When he couldn't make it home
She was good to make love to
And they did now and then
She was good to never ask
When he'd be back again
CHORUS:
She wasn't good enough for him
For his family or his friends
He kept her out there on a limb
Wouldn't let her go, wouldn't let her in
She wasn't good enough for him
She was there on his bad days
And for years he led her on
We all knew she had a bad case
He was doing her all wrong
She couldn't bring herself to do the right thing
Break it off and say goodbye
'Til she overheard him one night tellin'
Somebody on the side that
Repeat Chorus
She was good at late night listening
When he'd call her on the phone

He was always Santa Claus to them
Every year he'd magically appear here in our den
They would laugh and tease and say you look a lot like Dad
He'd just smile and ask, 'Have you been good or bad?'
Oh, but life ain't always like a holiday
Some things change, and sometimes people go their seperate ways
He just called and said he'd like to be here for the kids
Wish them Merry Christmas when they open up their gifts
And even though it might be hard on me
How can I let them down?
So Santa Claus is coming back to town
Here it is Christmas Eve - the kids are sleeping
Lights flashing in the trees - I keep thinking
Tomorrow I'll see him, tomorrow I'll see him
I guess I ought to try to go to bed
I can't rehearse tomorrow any longer in my head
He'll walk in so nonchalant, as if he'd never gone
They'll be glad to see him, I'll be barely hanging on
And just like that he'll go and turn my whole world upside down
Santa Claus is coming back to town
No it's never really easy when this time of year rolls around
'Cause Santa Claus is coming back to town

Oh you and all your splendor
It knows only me heart
Call back my rose
Rose of San Antone
Oh lips so sweet and tender
Just like petals fallin' apart
Speak once again of my love
My ol' broken songs
Empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit path
Oh beside the Alamo
And Rose my rose of San Antone
Oh my rose my rose of San Antone
Take a bow boys!
You know a lot of people ask me all the time,
who were my musical influences.
Well I guess it's just kinda natural,
since I was raised in Oklahoma,
that one of my musical influences was Bob Wills music.
When I was in college we used to
sneak down to the Oklahoma and Texas border and go to dances.
And it didn't get any better than dancing to Bob Wills music.
But you know there was another guy from Oklahoma.
I had every album he ever put out.
My older brother
Pake and my little sister Susie and me, we sang every song he did
cause Merle Haggard was a great influence on all of us

Sun goes down on a silky day
Quarter moon walking though the Milky Way
Oh you and me baby
We could think of something to do
Chorus:
It's the right time of the night
The stars are waking above
It's the right time of the night for making love
No use talking when the shadows fall
Night bird's calling and he says it all
Oh you and me baby
We could think of something to do
Repeat Chorus
I got you and you got me
Tell you that's the way my mama always said it should be
Oh I'll be good and you be kind
We'll be bad if you don't mind
Repeat Chorus 3 Times

What you want.
Baby I got it.
What you need do you know.
I got it.
All I'm asking is
for a little respect when you come home
(Just a little bit) Hey baby (Just a little bit)
When you get home.
Hey Mister I ain't gonna do you wrong while you're gone.
Ain't gonna do ya wrong cause I don't wanna.
All I'm asking is for a little respect when you get home
(Just a little bit) Hey Baby ( A little respect)

Red roses just won't work now
Here we go us again
You've been gone and here you stand
With a dozen I'm sorry's in your hand
Victim of your podent charms
I took you back with open arms
But along with the roses came the thorns
Chorus:
And that's why red roses just won't work now
Cause you've done too much
To talk things out
You could tell me you love me
But that's the one thing I'll always doubt
Red roses just won't work now
Gone for good's the trust I had
You let me done the garden path
Just too many times to take you back
So faith is why don't you
Save the roses for you know who
I already know how long they'll last
Repeat Chorus

He said please come to Boston,
For the springtime.
I'm stayin' here with some friends,
And they've got lots of room.
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk,
By a cafe where I hope to be workin' soon.
Please come to Boston,
I said no, boy won'tcha come home to me.
CHORUS 1:
I said, hey ramblin' boy
Why don't you settle down,
Boston ain't your kind of town.
There ain't no gold,
And there ain't nobody like me.

Of the man from Tennessee.

He said please come to Denver,
With the snowfall.
We'll move up into the mountains,
So far we can't be found.
And throw our I love you echos,
Down the canyon.
And then lie awake at night,
Until they come back around.
Please come to Denver,
I said no, boy you come home to me.
CHORUS 2:
I said, hey ramblin' boy.
Why don't you settle down,

Now that drifter's world,

Somebody he can sing to.

He said please come to L.A.,
To live forever.
A California life alone,
Is just too hard to build.
I live in a house that,
Looks out over the ocean.
And there's some stars,
That fell from the sky.
Livin' up on the hill,
Please come to L.A.
I just said no,
Boy, you come home to me.
CHORUS 3:
And, I said, ramblin' boy
Why don't you settle down,
L.A. can't be your kind of town.

Of the man from Tennessee.

(gary burr, sunny russ)
This desert lies
It’s so unfair
I think there’s water everywhere
I’m always fooled
Just when I think I’m saved
But I don’t have the strength
To do again
What always comes undone
Deliver me
Please be the one
I’ve thought I wasted all those prayers
Till I looked up and you were there
Oh in your eyes
I see there’s hope for me
I need your love
To finish off
What others have begun
Deliver me
Please be the one
Be the one who makes me see
Be wonderful a reason
Be the one who rescues me
With a love I can believe in
Let it be true
That you can do
What no one else has done
Deliver me
Please be the one
Oh deliver me
Please be the one

Chorus:
Pins and needles
Needles and pins
One by one I feel them at my heart again
I think I'm getting over you and then
Pins and needles
Needles and pins
I don't know why
I get uneasy
Every time I hear your name
I feel a sting from every memory
That we made
Repeat Chorus
That tiny ache
Can always find me
Anytime that you are near
Those little things
Can still remind me
That you don't care
Repeat Chorus
(Pins and needles
Pins and needles
Pins and needles
Needles and pins)

One to one
You and me
Anyone with eyes can plainly see
How it is with you and me
One to one
From now on
In each other's arms where we belong
And how we love when we're alone
We have so much between us
We know each other's needs
And you make it oh so good
When it's just you and me
One to one
You and me
Anyone with eyes can plainly see
Oh how it is with you and me
One to one
From now on
In each other's arms where we belong
Oh how we love when we're alone
One to One

Times are tough on an honest heart.
People don't follow through with what they start.
Lyin' eyes looking at me up and down.
Makin' talk that's only cheap.
Makin' promises they never keep.
But I keep lookin' for what I still haven't found.
One honest heart.
That I can believe in.
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go.
One good man that I can count on.
It shouldn't be so hard.
Findin' one honest heart.
Now I've been close a time or two.
I thought I saw my dream comin' true.
But I was just livin' in a fairy tale.
I won't play the fool again.
I won't play a game that I can't win.
But I still have faith and keep tellin' myself. There's...
One honest heart.
That I can believe in.
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go.
One good man that I can count on.
It shouldn't be so hard.
Findin' one honest heart.
Well, I dont think I'm asking to much
Just once in my life
I want to be touched by
One honest heart. That I Can Believe in
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go.
One good man that I can count on.
It shouldn't be so hard.
It shouldn't be so hard
Findin' one honest heart.
One good man, One honest heart
One good man One honest heart...

The kids were up before dawn this morning
Right to the Christmas tree they ran
Called up the stairs for us to hurry
Wait for this day for about as long as they could stand
While trading presents the little one asks me
Why do we have Christmas each year
I said long ago a child was born this day
He's a gift more precious then all you see here
Chorus:
Cause on this day
A child was born
In the town of Bethlehem
And on this day
God sent his son to bring peace and goodwill
To all men
Oh on this day we call Christmas
We honor his name
On this day
We recall all the reasons he came
On this day
On this day
Grandma and Grandpa arrived after breakfast
The rest of the gang by noon
We spent the day watching football and breaking in toys
Helping out in the kitchen
Catching up on old news
When the dinner bell rang
We all took our places
Grandpa said who wants to say grace
Before anyone else could utter a word
Oh the little one bowed her head
And she started to say
Repeat Chorus
Oh on this day we call Christmas
We honor his name
On this day
We recall all the reasons he came
On this day
On this day

(jerry fuller)
I see you now, I think of then
And dwell upon the happiness of way back when
Cause since you said goodbye
The feelings just won’t die
And I still long to hold you now and then
A million years have come and gone
And I was sure by now I’d make it on my own
But seeing you today
Took my breath away
And I still long to hold you now and then
Suddenly I felt myself wondering
If you might wanna try it again
And though I wanted so much to hold you
You smiled and shook my hand
So I’ll exist on dreams again
On days when we were lovers and not just friends
And even if I find another love in time
I still long to hold you now and then
Oh, I still long to hold you now and then

A little girl's dream world with ribbons and long curls
Reflections of yesterday's past
Now headlines and foot lights
The hours of long nights keep everything
Moving so fast
It's taken a long time
And she's walked a thin line
The fame and fortune arrived
She kept on striving
Way of surviving
Till part of those dreams came alive
Chorus:
And she wishes she looks like
They tell her she looks like all the time
What she'd give just to feel like
She tells them she's feeling
Just fine
All that money she makes every night
Ain't as much as it seems
A dollar a wrinkle and less then a nickel a dream
Her heart may be breaking
But she keeps on taking
What she thought she wanted way back when
It's too late to change her
There's always a stranger
To tell her she's someone again
Repeat Chorus
Nickel a dream
Nickel dreams

On Monday the sun will be shining
On Tuesday the weather was fine
Wednesday and Thursday went by
By Friday the clouds filled the sky
Dismorning I knew it would rain
The moment the telephone rang
I heard your voice and I knew
The sky turned a new shade of blue
Chorus:
And it looks like rain
It always rains on Saturday
The dark clouds came
And the sunny days are gone away
This house feels so cold
It always feels like this when he goes away
There's really nothing new about the rain
It always rains on Saturday
I look into Billy's young smile
And watch him watch Big Bird a while
His daddy will be here by eight
Seems like the sky's turning grey
There's an overnight bag on the stairs
Beside a one eyed teddy bear
I hold Billy and try not to cry
And whisper kiss mommy goodbye
Repeat Chorus (It always feels like this when Billy goes away)

When you walked out that door
I was so sure my world had ended
So sure I'd never get over you
On that first night alone
I cried so many tears it scared me
So many dreams that I had to let go
But now I know
That the world still turns and the sun still burns
And that's what I've learned without you
And the days roll on and my heart gets stronger too
Don't think I didn't love you
Just because I made it through
But I learned to love myself
Without you
I take myself to dinner
And I go to the movies solo
That's something I never did before
You may not understand this
But I don't' wait on invitations
I'm not afraid of the great unknown
Of being alone cause the
The world still turns and the sun still burns
And that's what I've learned without you
And the days roll on and my heart gets stronger too
Don't think I didn't love you
Just because I made it through
But I learned to love myself
Without you
I can even see myself
Falling in love with somebody else
Ready to take that chance again
Cause I know now
What I didn't know then
That the world still turns and the sun still burns
And that's what I've learned without you
And the days roll on and my heart gets stronger too
Don't think I didn't love you
Just because I made it through
But I learned to love myself
Without you

We had a fight
A lover's quarrel
Angry words spoken in haste
Deep in the night
It went out of control
And with tears streaming down my face
I slammed the door and I walked out
Swearing that we were through
Now I'm sitting in a bar
Thinking I've gone too far
Wondering what I'm gonna do
Thinking about calling you
Chorus:
To my left blue collar
To my right a high dollar man
Across the bar a smooth bartender
Who thinks I'm in the palm of his hand
Well they buy me drinks
Light my cigarette
They're all wondering which one I'm gonna choose
Oh my hand's on my glass
My second margarita
And my mind is on you
My mind is on you
Well I ran away
In a moment of weakness
I couldn't hold my own
I should stay
Because being together
Means more than who was right or wrong
And sitting in a room full of lonely faces
You're the only one I see
If you only knew
I was thinking of you
Would you come and rescue me
Maybe I should call and see
Repeat Chorus
(My third margarita)
I should of known I could never get along
Outside of your love
It's last call
And I'm out of cigarettes
They are all wondering what I'm gonna do
Oh my hand's on the glass
It's my last margarita
And my mind is on you
My mind is on you
My mind is on you

Chorus:
I can hardly see my face in the waters of the muddy Mississippi
But I can see the shadows of the cotton wood standing over me
The morning sun would find me
Swinging from the rope that's hanging free
And I drop in to the waters
And go swimming in the muddy Mississippi
A boy came to the Delta
And we would swing together from that tree
I could see my dreams in his eyes
As he held on to me
Swinging in the sunlight
Loving in the shadows
Wild and free
And I made him promise he would take me
Down to New Orleans
Bright lights of the city made my red dress and shoes look brand new
While he worked the night shift
I turned on and I turned loose
I lost my pride I lost my man
I did things a girl like me shouldn't do
Now I can't face this living
With the swelling signs of new life
Showing through
I can hardly see my face in the waters of the muddy Mississippi
But I can see the shadows of the cotton wood standing over me
The morning sun would find me
Hanging from the rope that's swinging free
And I'll swing for the last time over the waters
Of the muddy Mississippi
Yeah the muddy Mississippi

Moving Oleta was the hardest thing he'd done
The nurses saw an old woman crying, but he saw the love of his life
She don't know where she is, but she knows this isn't home
Love is a hard, hard road
He met her in the summer of '37
In a brush harbor down on the Rush Creek shore
He loved her black hair and the mischief in her smile
But she won him with her eyes
All the years and children grow
He still sees her the same
Love is a hard, hard road
He woke up each morning and drove into town
He stayed all day 'till her dinner came
Then he took her to her room, leaned on her wheelchair like a walker
And covered her with a quit that she made
Only God and a couple of nurses helped the old man shoulder the load
Love is a hard, hard road
And he said
They tell me this is all that's left
Say this hell on earth is best
I list all those reasons and I still don't understand it
He cursed his body old and weak
Tears of failure burned his cheek
And he said
Oh, don't you know I prayed to die before this day
Love is a hard, hard road
There's a shadow much darker than the valley of death
When you fear the reaper might not come today
They line 'em up in La-z-boys out in the sunroom
The TV keeps the quiet away
She can't recall his name
And she's the only love he's known
Love is a hard, hard road
Love is a hard road
Moving Oleta was the hardest thing he'd done

(bob montgomery)
Chorus:
Oh it’s been such a long long time
Looks like I kept you off my mind
But I can’t
Just the thought of you
Turns my whole world a misty blue
Just the mention of your name
Turns a flicker to a flame
I think of things we used to do
Then my whole world turns misty blue
I should forget you
Heaven knows I’ve tried
But when I say I’m glad we’re through
My heart knows that I’ve lied
Repeat chorus
I should forget you
Heaven knows I’ve tried
But when I say I’m glad we’re through
My heart knows that I’ve lied
Repeat chorus
Oh but I can’t
Just the thought of you
Turns my whole world a misty blue

Chorus:
I'm loving you baby
Loving me, Loving you, Loving me
And I'm inclined just to let it be let it be
I'm a loving you, loving you, lovin me
Well I'm loving you baby loving you
Loving you loving me
And I'm inclined just to let it be, let it be
I'm a loving you, loving you, loving me
Once was living life alone
Once was living but the life was gone
Once my life was just a bad routine
When you're doing it by yourself life's such a lonely thing
Repeat Chorus x3

Now I know what you need
And you know what I need
The whole dang block knows this whole house needs
A love revival,love revival up in here

Aren't you tired of looking
For love you never find
Aren't you tired of playing games
With 20/20 vision
How is your heart so blind
It's all you wanted love to be
Is close enough for you to see
Chorus:
Look at the one who's been looking at you
Look at the one who's love would be true
You might be surprised
At the love that's shining in her eyes
Look at the one who's so easily found
Look at the one and stop looking around
Look at the one who's been looking at you
I'm standing here just hoping
You're gonna look my way
But you're too busy chasing dreams to see
But when the dreams are faded
There's gonna come a day
That I can give you sweet, sweet love
And all the things you're dreaming of
Repeat Chorus x2

Daddy used to tell me
If I ran too fast I'd fall and hurt myself
But the ice cream man would ring his bell
And I'd get there before anyone else
I'd see a puppy in the window
And I'd run and press my face against the pane
And Daddy'd say slow down girl
After all these years I guess nothing has changed
Chorus:
That little girl I knew
Ran after you
But she fell this time
And broke her heart in two
Hey that's just like a little girl I knew
Back home there stands an old house
With a picket fence beneath a big oak tree
I can almost see the backyard
And a little girl with freckles
That was me
And there were dreams of toys and storybooks and
Lord it seemed I wanted them so bad
Now 20 years have come and gone
And I'm still chasing things that I can't have
Repeat Chorus
Yes, I'm still that little girl
Daddy I still haven't slowed down yet

When our check bounces at the store
And the whole world seems at war
You bring me peace of mind once more
With just a little love
When the boss says I'm ten minutes late
And the stack of bills just won't wait
Ooo, you take the worries away
With just a little love
Chorus:
Just a little love
And affection
You bring a touch of perfection
To a world that's sometimes crazy
And so mixed up
Just a little love
You have changed me
You make me see why the good Lord made me
And you can do miracles
With just a little love
When our old car won't run
And all my dreams come undone
You'll make it right won't ya hun
With just a little love
When it seems like all the truths are gone
When I'm trying so hard to hold on
You make it easy to be strong
With just a little love
Repeat Chorus

Chorus:
It's gotta be love
That keeps us together
It's gotta be a feeling from the heart
It's gotta be love
It must last forever
Or I won't let the fire start
It's gotta be love
I don't have time for a part time love affair
I can't pretend it's love when it's not really there
So don't you lead me on if you don't really care
It's gotta be real
And I got a feeling
Repeat Chorus
I can't just let you take my love and walk away
And you must know that love is not a game I play
So when you say you love me
You better mean just what you say
It's gotta be real
And I got a feeling
Repeat Chorus twice

Silence is golden
When the one that you're holding
Means more then love words can say
But what I don't hear
From you makes me fear
That our love is slipping away
The quiet's so loud
It fills up the house
With words that can't be set free
So who'll break the curse
And say the first word
Well I don't know
We're not talking you see
Chorus:
It's another silent night
It's a cold war of who's wrong or right
Nobody's winning this unspoken fight
It's another silent night
If we could just talk
And tear down the wall
That stands there between our hearts
We could put back together
Our love for each other
Before it all falls apart
Repeat Chorus x2

We've got a nice little house on a quiet little street
But it don't matter
A two garage with a new Cherokee
But it don't matter
Chorus:
Cause we don't ever seem to talk anymore
And you don't hold me like you did before
We've got everything we wanted and more
But now I know and now I see
Nothing matters if you don't love me
We've given twelve precious years of our lives
But it don't matter
And I guess for awhile we were both satisfied
But it don't matter
It wouldn't be easy to walk out tonight
But it don't matter
And I know I would miss you if you said goodbye
But it don't matter

They met at a party.
He was laughing with his friends.
She captured all of his attention.
Just by walkin' in.
Confident and self-assured he liked her attitude.
And the moment their eyes met.
Every girl in the room became...
CHORUS
Invisible just out of view.
Invisible.
Like a pane of glass he could see right through.
Invisible.
They married in October.
She made a beautiful bride.
His world revolved around her.
They had a picture perfect life.
But when the baby came in August.
Time started spinning like a wheel.
She expected to feel tired.
But she never thought she'd feel...
CHORUS
'Cause lately he's been overlooking quite a lot.
So tonight in lace and candlelight.
She'll prove to him she's not...
CHORUS
A love deep inside.
Invisible.
So much more to her than meets the eye.
Invisible.

Lost in the city
Deserted and cold
Watching the cars passing by
There all going places
That we used to go
And it's driving me out of my mind
And it's making me blue
Indelibly blue
I can't erase the memories of me and you
Indelibly blue
They say when one love is ended
Another is born
That's no consolation to me
Just show me some sunlight
A rose without thorns
And maybe I'll start to believe
Repeat Chorus
(Well just color me blue)
Oh all my life
I've waited for one love to make it alright
But now I feel heartaches and tears
Of a sad souvenirs that you left me
Since you left me
I'll just go on a day at a time
Trying in vain to forget you
But time and again you enter my mind
Someday I swear I won't let you
Repeat Chorus
(Cause baby I'm blue)
Repeat Chorus
(So just color me blue)

(a duet with reba mcentire)
(mark d. sanders, tim nichols)
Linda:
You jet from coast to coast
Dressed in designer clothes
When you appear somewhere
Your chauffeur drives you there
I wouldn’t think twice
If I could live your life
Reba:
You see your friends at the store
Your sister lives next door
You kiss your babies goodnight
Your husband’s there at your side
I’d love to give it a try
If I could live your life
Chorus:
Both:
If I could trade places with you
Linda:
Hear the roar of the crowd
Reba:
And the church bells in a quiet town
Both:
Just for one moment in time
I wonder what this world would be like
If I could live your life
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Linda:
Saw your picture in "people" today
Reba:
And I see you’re in the pta
Linda:
You’re living everyone’s dream
Reba:
It isn’t all that it seems
Both:
Wouldn’t it be nice
If I could live your life
Repeat chorus
(reba only sings last line "if I could live your life"
Linda:
If I could live your life
Both:
If I could live your life

You know I can't find the letters you wrote to me in school.
And that shoebox full of photographs got lost in my last move.
I gave away that old twin bed where you and I first laid.
But after all this time, I've still got the love we made.
And that old beat up car we dated in, finally turned
to rust. And the first rose that you gave me, oh it finally turned to
dust. But all those tender nights we shared are never gonna fade.
Cause after all this time I've still got the love we made.
I've got every feeling we felt when touched.
Cause even though fell apart I kept a part of us. I've held
on to everytime we held each other tight, and promised that no matter
what we'd never say goodbye. I don't have one souvenier
of us I'd meant to save, but right here in my heart
I've still got the love we made.
Ooh right here in my heart
I've still got the love we made.

You don’t me but I know who you are
Mind if I sit down?
Do I look familiar?
If I don’t well I see
I’m sure you’ve seen me around
I know you’ve probably heard my name
Though we’ve not been introduced
I’m the fool in love with the fool
Who’s still in love with you
If you’ve got a minute
I’ll buy you a drink
I’ve got something to say
It might sound crazy
But last night in his sleep
I heard him call out your name
This ain’t the first time
He's done it before
And it’s hard to face the truth
I’m the fool in love with the fool
Who’s still in love with you
I know love is a fragile thing
But I’m trying hard to make it last
But it ain’t easy holding onto my dream
When he’s holding onto the past
Just one more thing before I go
I’m not here to put you down
You don’t love him and that’s a fact
Girl I’ve seen you around
But you hold his heart in the palm of you hands
And it’s breaking mine in two
Cos I’m the fool in love with the fool
Who’s still in love with you
I’m the fool in love with the fool
Who’s still in love with you

Felt so right for awhile, almost really believed
I could stay here forever, my heart could be free
Oh I wish it were that easy but it's never been for me
I'm not your girl
Feels so warm and so safe here, now don't get me wrong
But it's selfish to stay here, I'd be leading you on
Maybe someone else can give you what you really really want
But I'm not your girl
CHORUS:
They say people change
I wish it were true
It's something I've tried so hard to do
Now I can't explain why right seems so wrong
And I keep hearing the same old song
I'm not your girl
I'm not your girl
See I've been here before, left a good thing behind
Can't see where I'm going, maybe love's really blind
And I'm so afraid to lose the one who was so hard to find
But I;m not your girl
Repeat Chorus
One day I'll come back here, and I'll knock on your door
She'll be sweet when she answers, and I'll know for sure
That life is never easy in my complicated world
I'm not your girl...

(what's in parantheses is background vocals)

Movin up where you want to be

It's my heart, it ain't Hollywood
You want it baby
Oh you got to be good
(Heyya) mm

(Hey Hey ya)
Take you up where you never been
Tie your seat belt, oh strap yourself in
Start a rumor, nothing to it
Oh it's you and me baby are just the ones to do it
I don't want to be the lonely game in town
I just want to be the only girl around
Yeah I'm gonna take you straight to the top
Never gonna stop
Show you what I got
Chorus:
I'll take your heart (I'll take your heart)
Before you know it's gone
Leave you standing but you won't be alone
Take your rhythm and leave you out of time
I'll take everything and give you all of mine
(I'll take your heart) I'll take your heart
And you ain't gonna feel it
Can't do nothing babe
You know I'm gonna steal it
And I'll take your heart
Before you know it's gone
(Heyya, Heyya, Heyya, Hey Hey Heyya)
Lady luck just be good to me
Send me love special delivery
Ain't in a movie, I ain't on TV
I'm a living, loving breathing leading kind of lady
I don't want to be alone at the end of the phone
I just want to be the one that turns you on
Yeah I'm gonna take you straight to the top
Never gonna stop
Show you what I got
Repeat Chorus
Some girls will cut you like a knife
Some girls will even stay the night
But this girl is gonna stay for life
Ya know it's right

Repeat Chorus twice as song fades

(Randy Sharp, Jeff Silbar)
You don't have a clue
You're so far gone
He's got you dancin' to
A siren's song
I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be
I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be, I wouldn't wanna be
You're not the first he's drawn
To his flame
He means to do you wrong
He has no shame
I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be
I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be, I wouldn't wanna be you
It's easy to understand
How you could fall so hard
You're not the only one
He's taken in and torn apart
Won't say I told you so
But I'm afraid it's true
You're about to go
What I went through
I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be
I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be, I wouldn't wanna be you

His head turned and my heart jumped.
When I saw that it was him.
After two long years the love of my life.
And I just held my breath in.
Standin' there smiling.
While his eyes locked on mine.
He couldn't hear me screamin on the inside.
CHORUS
When I said, tear don't you fall.
He's done let him go.
Eye's don't look back.
Down that empty road.
And lips you may move.
But don't you say too much.
Oh and please, please heart hush.
I said somethin' stupid.
And reached out my hand.
After makin' love and movin' earth. We were shakin' hands.
A million sweet memoriers. Pinballed through my brain.
The want to hold him one more time. Ran through my veins.
Repeat CHORUS
I kept lookin' at my watch like I had somewhere to be.
Then he stopped talkin' and kissed me tenderly.
Repeat CHORUS

I'll never forget that night long ago
When he drove me down that old dusty road
He took me as far as I'd ever been
He wanted me and I wanted him
But I'd always been told I shouldn't give in
Chorus:
I wouldn't go that far
I didn't follow my heart
He said he loved me
But I wasn't ready
And I wouldn't go that far
He was so patient, he didn't give up
With a ring in his hand and a heart full of love
He asked me for forever, I asked him to wait
To please understand these dreams I must chase
Though it was a promise I wanted to make
Repeat Chorus
After all these years. I saw him again
He had his wife and his family with him
He said he was proud of all my success
He guessed both of us had found happiness
Repeat Chorus
Yes, I knew he loved me
But I wasn't ready
And I wouldn't go that far

How do you tell someone you're letting go
I wish that I could tell you
But you're asking me things that I don't know
I wish that I could tell you
The words that I would say
Sound as empty as the way you feel inside
While the silence in between
Tells me everything that you deny
I don't know how to help you
I wish that I could tell you
How to tell me goodbye
I don't know how you leave it all behind
I wish that I could tell you
Is it true a heart heals itself with time
I wish that I could tell you
How do you choose
Do you hurt 'em with the truth or with a lie
Where do you go to find the courage
You know I could never find
I don't know how to help you
I wish that I could tell you
How to tell me goodbye
Where do you turn, where do you go
When you've finally reached the end of the road
How do you say it I just don't know
When it comes to leaving you're on your own
How do you tell someone you're letting go
I wish that I could tell you
I wish that I could tell you

Oh I know it's hard for you to say it's over
Well it's twice as hard for me to let you go
Out there I hope you find a softer shoulder
But before you leave there's something you should know
Chorus:
I was glad to give my everything to you
Yeah we almost made our every dream come true
And though we didn't have the chance to see it through
I was glad to give my everything to you
Oh you say you need a little room for breathing
Somehow I guess you know I'd understand
And though you're hurting me
I still can't help in believing
I'd be glad if I could do it all again
Repeat Chorus
Oh I was glad to give my everything to you

(Beverly J. Carlton, James L. Benton)
I fed the children
And I kissed them goodnight
You fed the jukebox
Till they turn out the lights
I bought the bacon
While you bought the booze
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose
Needing new clothes with the money you spent
On barbills and motels and women you met
But I stood the heartache that you put me through
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose
I gave up so much
And now I'm giving up you
It's too late to make up for
The love that you used
I've had enough
I don't want you around
Don't look at me
Like I let you down
You say I'm to blame
But who's fooling who
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose
Yeah I sacrificed more than you'll ever lose

I've got someone in my life
Who loves me wrong or right
And I like it that way
He gives me room to breathe
But he's there for me
And I like it that way
I like it that way
I like the way he says me name
And how he's not afraid
To open up and let his feelings show
He's exactly what I need
He loves me honestly
One look in his eyes
Tells me all I need to me know
When he's on overtime
I get that little ache inside
And I like it that way
We're as close as two can be
But he's still him and I'm still me
And I like it that way
Yeah, I like it that way

I've got a story to tell, would you mind listening.
I can always count on
you we're such good friends.
And I need to talk about my situation and
you're the only one who'll understand.
Now someone's got designs on my baby.
She's making her intentions very plain.
We both know this ole gal
that I'm talking about, but I don't
want to mention any names.
Well she's asked him to slow dance way too often.
She's made suggestions I don't
like at all. I'm trying to let her know that
I'm wise to her game, but I
don't wanna mention any names.
Well I can understand why she'd want him.
Oh you've even said yourself he's quite a prize.
She's about a good of friend as you are.
Come to think about it she's just about your size.
If she don't back off there's gonna be some trouble.
I'm prepared to make that very plain.
I sure hope I've said enough, and just between the two of us.
Repeat Chorus

Now you ask me if I will go with you
Well I'd like to but I don't know if it's right
Are you looking for someone to care for you
Or just someone to love you tonight
Chorus:
Well I don't want to be a one night stand
So if that's what you got planned
Baby before we go you better let me know
I don't want to be a one night stand
It been so long since I've had some loving
And your kisses make me wish that you were mine
Now it'd be so easy for me to fall for you
And let myself have a good time
Repeat Chorus 3 times

He believes in the family unit
The union of man and wife
He believes that you stand before God
For better, for worse and beyond this life
He believes that a ring on his finger
Is something to be proud of
For all of the world to witness
That he is committed to this love
He wants to get married
He'll build a house in the country
Where he'll watch his children grow
And teach them the values of something
That most people never even know
He wants to get married
I never thought I would be so blessed
To know a man like this
He's everything, everything I believe that a man should be
And when he is called to his maker
He wants to go to his grave
With his final remembrance of this earth
To be one last look at his wife's face
He wants to get married
He wants to get married
Oh, he wants to get married
But not to me

His early mornin' attitude:
You have to drag him out of bed.
Only frosted flakes will do,
He gets that from me:
Yeah, he gets that from me.
His curly hair and his knobbly knees:
The way the sun brings those freckles out.
Talk and talk, never miss a beat,
Yeah,he gets that from me:
He gets that from me.
He looks at me with those big brown eyes:
He's got me in the palm of his hands,
And I swear sometimes it's just like you're here again.
He smiles that little crooked smile:
There's no denying he's your child.
Without him I don't know what I'd do:
He gets that from you:
Oh, he gets that from you.
How he loves your old guitar:
Yeah, he's taught himself to play.
He melts my heart: tells me he love me every day.
And cracks jokes at the perfect time,
Makes me laugh when I want to cry.
That boy is everything to me:
He gets that from you:
He gets that from you.
Last night, I heard him pray:
Lord, help me and mama make it through.
An' tell Daddy we'll be okay:
He said he sure misses you:
He sure misses you.
He really misses you:
He gets that from me.

Feeling one another's joy and sorrow
Dreams today may come true tomorrow
Good friends
Close together like they're bookends
Feeling what the other one is feeling
They never seem to be without
Those little things to laugh about
Good friends
They have the kind of love
That only deepens
It's something that you rarely find worth keeping
Oh people even new ones come
You're lucky if you find just one good friend
And we say goodbye
Knowing what we have will fade away
We'll meet another time
Another day
My friend
Good friends
Their paths may never come together again
But in their hearts
They're on a road with no end
Where life will take us who can tell
Guess it's time to say farewell
My friend
Good friends
You never will forget
Your good friends

Chorus:
Gonna love ya till the cows come home
Gonna love ya baby all night long
Gonna love ya lordy me oh my
Gonna love ya till the day I die
Take your time morning is far away
And the moon's leaning into the night
So we won't be needing the light
So (Repeat Chorus)
Now you're mine
There's no chance to run away
While the stars are all turning to you
Tell you what I'm gonna do
Oh(Repeat Chorus)
Tell me now
It's love that you're feeling
Fill my soul like you're filling my arms
Oh(Repeat Chorus x2)

Have you ever made a quilt? I have. it’s one of the most therapeutic and calming things I’ve ever done. and I had a huge sense of accomplishment when I finished.
Both of my grandmothers made quilts, my mama did, and my aunt jeannie did. I loved to open that big box at christmastime knowing it was a quilt that one of them had made. I was so flattered that after all the time and energy they had spent on that quilt, they had selected me to receive it. even as a young girl, I knew a quilt was a gift I would cherish always.
Back when I was living at home, I remember during the winter months mama would set up her sewing machine in the living room over by the window. at night when we’d all be in there watching tv after supper, mama would be over at her sewing machine, making another quilt from the scraps left over
From a dress or blouse she had made for one of us earlier.
Then, when she had sewn all the squares sewn together, she’d lay the batting on the living room floor, lay the quilted piece on top of that, and then start tacking it down. when that was completed, she’d sew the border around it. then it was finished. all that remained was for mama to decide who would be the proud recipient of her precious handiwork which represented so many hours of love.
I feel very blessed to have received one of mama’s quilts. I sleep under it every night I’m home. it doesn’t match the fancy comforter we bought in los angelos, but it feels better than anything you can imagine. just because I know my mama made it just for me.
When daddy’s mother died in 1950, one year before my sister alice was born, mama got the trunk that held all of the quilts, china, crystal, silverware, and knickknacks that grandma had collected during her lifetime. mama discovered that grandma’s trunk also included a few quilt pieces that she had started but had never finished. my sister susie eventually wound up with those quilt pieces and we all figured she would finish them out and keep them for herself.
But as only susie would do, she cut the makings of the quilt into four squares, had them quilted, put a picture of grandma mcentire and a descripion of the quilt ogether, and had them framed for alice’s, my brother pake’s, and my christmas present.
That’s how thoughtful susie is. she could have kept the quilt for herself, but, instead, she shared with her brother and sisters something so special, which had belonged to a woman none of us had ever met. that’s part of susie’s charm.
That’s also the charm of a quilt. like a mother, it wraps it’s arms around you-sosoft, yet so sturdy, and so comforting. in my grandma’s time the sewing of a quilt would bring friends and neighbors together, and in quilting circles today that lovely tradition continues. now we live in a time when so many women do not even have a sewing machine in their home and when country quilts hang in the fanciest boutiques and galleries selling as "decorative art." that would sure give my grandma and her circle a good laugh and more than a few shakes of the head.
Can you just imagine the visiting, the stories, and the fellowship that have gone on during the making of all the wonderful quilts through the years? and can you imagine all the children who have been tucked in securely underneath them in their beds night after night? and us adults too?
That’s what you call "comfort from a country quilt." I hope this book is as comforting to you as my mama’s quilt has always been to me. like a quilt, this book is made up of small pieces of material-some of my favorite stories, memorable experiences, and more than a few opinions-written, rather than sewn, from the stuff of my life. I have stitched these pieces together with my sincere hope that you will find the "quilt" of a book friendly, warm, and enjoyable, something you can turn to for comfort and entertainment and for sharing with friends and family.
So grab your favorite quilt, wra up, get comfortable, and enjoy.
From me to you.
Love,
Reba

Uncle Slim had let her know she couldn't ride that horse
He was the one that was only meant for men
She walked around till way after dark
Rode that horse with all her heart
And in the night how she rode
Chorus:
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
And even if she fell she'd survive
In spite of all the tears she may cry
This is how she has to live her life
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
Mama and daddy told her from the start he was no good
They'd seen how he treated the other girls
She waited around till the sun went down
Slipped out of the house not makin' a sound
And in the night oh how they drove
Repeat Chorus:
It was fifteen years to the day he became a stranger in her eyes
In the coldest words of anger
He said without me you won't survive
There's a suitcase in the closet she had packed six months ago
She don't leave a note that's not her style
So she waited around till way after dark
Left that man who broke her heart
Now she's gone, oh she's gone
Repeat Chorus:

Oh you don't have blue eyes.
I expected blue eyes.
That's how I pictured you would be.
And you don't have long hair.
I thought you'd have long hair.
So this is all a shock to me.
I didn't know if you would meet me.
Or believe me. When I said that I was fooled.
I really thought that I would hate you.
I know I meant to.
There'd only be one of us left when we're through.
CHORUS
Now that we're face to face.
And I put myself in your place.
I see the truth. I see who's
really to blame.
And I won't play his game. Or try to get even.
He'll know he's lost watching us leaving.
I blamed you, but I see my mistakes. Now that we're face to face.
I believe in true love something to be sure of.
Isn't that what we deserve.
There's no blame here, we both end up the
same here. A little wiser than we were.
There was a time this would have killed me. And it may still be.
Hard to look you in the eye.
And now that all the spells are broken.
The truth's been spoken.
My heart has the strength to tell him goodbye.
Repeat CHORUS

Funny you can hold it in your hand
And never cause you're afraid to play
And you can feel your dreams
Softly slipping through your fingers
Till they're so far away
Sitting there surrounded
By your many life's possessions
Feeling so much more than all the load
You realized you've learned one more
Of living's many lessons
Love's worth more than all you'll ever own
Chorus:
What I'd give if you were here beside me
We could spend forever here alone
Oh what I'd give what would I give
Just that moment
Just everything I'll ever own
Funny when I really had it all
I never knew
Cause I just couldn't see
The wealth I hoped to find
Couldnt even hold a candle
To the love you gave to me
I've taken love for granted
And I've taken love for pleasure
Never taking time to understand
Now I know that loving you
Has been my greatest treasure
And I let it slip right through my hands
Repeat Chorus

Thought we could make it on our own looks like we didn't get too far
Love has found its way back home guess time just couldn't change the way we are
That old feeling comes so easy when your body's close to mine
I think our crazy hearts have finally made their always one more time
Don't say good night say good morning we can make it this time if we try
Don't say good night say good morning and in the morning never say goodbye
[ piano ]
The night's ours and we're alone I know I've wasted too much time
Chasing rainbows that I could never run out I've come back to make you mine
Don't let the morning come too early don't leave me here to face the day
Take me in your arms and never let me go and don't let the feelings slip away
Don't say good night...
Don't say good night...

I can't say I didn't know what I was doin'
I can't pretend things just got outta hand
I shoulda kept my distance
While I was still strong
But I got caught up in the feelin'
Carried along and it's
Too late baby
I can't stop now
Well I walked right in with my eyes wide open (I did)
And I was blind when you told me
You'd be mine just as soon as you were free
I should have kept my distance
While I was still strong
But I got caught up in the feelin'
Carried along and it's
Too late baby
I can't stop now
Can't stop now
Crazy heart's runnin' outta control
Can't stop now
And I'll be falling apart somewhere down the road
I might be headed for a breakdown
But I can't stop now
Glen!

By the time I get to Phoenix he'll be risin'
He'll find the note I left hangin' on his door
And he'll laugh when he reads the part that says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that man so many times before
By the time I make Albuquerque he'll be workin'
He'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call
But he'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
Off the wall, that's all
By the time I make Oklahoma he'll be sleepin'
He'll turn softly and call my name out low
And he'll cry just to think I'd really leave him
Though time and time I've tried to tell him so
Oh, he just didn't know
I would really go
I would really go

I took him for granted
Now looking back at it
He's not the only one to blame
Between the jobs and the kids
Wasn't much time for him
We let the fire slip away from the flame
Guess I shouldn't be surprised
But as hard as I try
I can't believe it's happened to me
But I know where he's at
And I know it's a fact
I'd have to be blind not to see
Chorus:
He's out buying her roses
And where that leaves me God only knows
I know I should tell him
To leave me forever
But what'll I do if he goes
Should I put up a fight
Does it matter who's right
Should I ruin my life or my pride
Can we save what we had
And if he comes back
Will I ever get it out of my mind
Repeat Chorus twice
What'll I do if he goes
What'll I do if he goes

Bobby pleaded guilty to the charges that they read
As they led him from the courtroom, a young voice turned his head
A little boy, dressed in blue, was standing at the rail
He said 'I hope they kill you, I hope you go to hell'
They put Bobby in a jail with forty other men
They all knew what he had done, they were glad to take him in
They'd all seen the headlines about Bobby and his wife
How they loved each other, and how he took her life
Day after day, he sat alone
Night after night, they'd hear him sing his song (he'd sing)
Chorus:
Baby, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down
No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around
I am not afraid of what people say or do
The only thing I fear is being here...without you
The little boy dressed up in blue grew up to be a man
When he fell in love himself, he came to understand
How it was that Bobby took the life they both adored
Cause Bobby couldn't stand to see her suffer anymore
He took out the papers from the trunk beneath his bed
And all the years just disappeared as through his tears he read
The stories of the accident that robbed his mama's mind
And the man who held her in his arms and chose to cut the line
And the one about the man who sits alone
Year after year, singing his song (he'd sing)
Repeat Chorus:
The young man drove his car up, and parked outside the gate
They led him to a cold gray room, the guard told him to wait
When the gaurd brought Bobby in, the young man finally knew
He still missed his mama, but he'd missed his daddy too
And when the guard left the two of them alone
He took Bobby in his arms, and the young man sang the song
Daddy, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down
No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around
You have taught me not to fear what people say or do
The only thing that hurts is being here...without you

I feel the blues coming on
Cause I feel you being gone
It's something I wish I could lose
Baby's gone blues
There ain't no sunshine in sight
Cause you're gonna leave me tonight
My heart is sure feeling bruised
Baby's gone blues
Chorus:
Oh - love has gone wrong
It's so hard on my heart going from good into gone
There ain't no easy way back into nights before you
Baby's gone blues
Baby's gone blues
It's like a razor on me
Knowing you want to be free
I'm standing here feeling used
Baby's gone blues
There ain't no dreams coming true
I won't recover from you
There ain't no heartache like you
Baby's gone blues
Repeat Chorus:

Do you think I'm such a fool
To believe everything you say is true
Well that just goes to show
That you really don't know
While you're out painting the town
Do you think I'm home just sitting around
Waiting on you
Now who's really the fool
When I first found out I hurt all over
I felt so left out till I got to know her
So I drived away as she got over
And I became just like her
So don't be surprised to find that
The angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Yes the angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Why'd you slip around secretly
If you were tired of loving me
Why do you keep holding on
When love was already gone
The time you said you wasn't feeling well
Did you think I couldn't tell
You've been with someone else
You were only kidding yourself
When I first found out I hurt all over
I felt so left out till I got to know her
So I drived away as she got over
And I became just like her so don't be surprised to find
The angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Yes the angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
The angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Yes the angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight

Some folks say that a mother's love is sweeter than the rest
When her baby's nestled in her arms and feeding at her breast
But I can't explain the feeling when you reach and touch my hand
Because there's nothing like the love between a woman and a man
Chorus:
It's a miracle from heaven
That it fills me through and through
Like a feeling that surrounds us
Touching me touching you
When you wrap your love around me it's not hard to understand
Why there's nothing like the love between and woman and a man
Well the father's love is quiet
But it's there for all to see
When a little boy is laughing bouncing on his daddy's knee
Then those great big hands reach down to tuck his little cowboy in
But there's nothing like the love between a woman and a man
Repeat Chorus 4 times

Come and gather 'round at the table
In the spirit of family and friends
And we'll all join hands and remember this moment
'Til the season comes 'round again
So let us smile for the picture
And we'll hold it as long as we can
May it carry us through should we ever get lonely
'Til the season comes 'round again
Bridge:
One night, holy and bright
Shining with love from our hearts
By a warm fire let's life our hands high
And be thankful were here 'til this time next year
May the new year be blessed with good tidings
'Til the next time I see you again
If we must say goodbye let the spirit go with you
'Til the season comes 'round again
Repeat Bridge
May this new year be blessed with good tidings
'Til the next time I see you again
We'll all join hands and remember this moment
And we'll love and we'll laugh in the time that we have
'Til the season comes 'round again

She looks at the clock it's a quarter past nine
She hears his car as he pulls in the drive
Dinner's still waiting from hours before
She knows he's been drinking when he walks through the door
In anger he strikes out and she starts to cry
How much more can she take how much more can she lie
And she fell down the stair again but it hasn't happened since she don't know when
Was it in spring when she packed up the kids
Or maybe in winter with his job on the skids
Oh but just like before she'll have to pretend that she fell down the stairs again
A short time ago she started a job serving chicken fried steak and corn on the cob
She started out shy but she ended up sure
That a ticket to anywhere could be the cure
But he couldn't handle her change for the better
She tried to leave him but he wouldn't let her
He says he's sorry he'd never mean it he swears it won't happen again
But she's so confused she wants to believe it she just wants this nightmare to end
And she fell down the stair again...
Just like before she'll have to pretend that she fell down the stairs again

My daddy is a rancher
He's wrangled cattle dang near all his life
He also liked to rodeo
He traveled around with four kids and a wife
Well his old ranch is rocky
But his ropes sail smooth for several years
He worked real hard
And roped real good
And tried to get his ranch out in the clear
He didn't want us kids to rodeo
He wanted more out of life for us
Maybe banking, or a lawyer
Or maybe even driving some old bus
Well that's when we took up singing
And his pride grew greater day by day
And I know his eyes grew misty
The night I sang up on the Opry stage
Chorus:
Now his ranch is so much bigger
The the days when he first started
The grass grows now where none used to be
His roping got him started
Cattle prices made it better
And he's trying to get his ranch out in the clear
Five years ago September, he bought more steers and hung up all his
ropes
But he often tells the stories about the rodeos he won and cowboy jokes
Well it's funny that the first big roping that he won some thirty years
Was the same day that I sang on the stage of the Grand Old Opry show
Repeat Chorus
Now he's feeding cattle
Toting hay
And branding the Y.O.
And his hired hand's there to help him
And she also cooks their meals when they get home
They built their ranch together
And listening to the kids sing through the years
Well they worked real hard and roped real good and now they got their
ranch
out in the clear
Because when a family works together
They finally get their ranch out in the clear
Out in the clear

6lbs and 9oz. lookin' up at me
Like I have all the answers
I hope I have the ones you need
I've never really done this, now I know what scared is
Sometimes I'll protect you from everything that's wrong
Other times I'll let you just find out on your own
But that's when you'll be growin',
And the whole time I'll be knowin
CHORUS:
You're gonna fly with every dream you chase
You're gonna cry, but know that that's okay
Sometimes life's not fair, but if you hang in there
You're gonna see that sometimes bad is good
We just have to believe things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees, but always loved by me
You're gonna be
I'm afraid you'll have to suffer through
some of my mistakes
Lord knows I'll be trying to give you what it takes
What it takes to know the difference
Between getting by and livin'
‘Cause anything worth doing is worth doing all the way
Just know you'll have to live with all
the choices that you make
So make sure you're always givin' way
more than you're takin'
REPEAT CHORUS
Someone's everything
You're gonna see
Just what you are to me
You're gonna fly with every dream you chase
We just have to believe things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees, but always loved by me
You're gonna be

We lie in the dark, I know you're awake
The only sounds are the sounds this old house makes
Oh, how I long, I long to hear your voice
Desperate to talk, yearning to touch
Burning inside 'cause I want you so much
So I say I need you and leave you no choice
You lie, you don't wanna hurt me
So you lie, buy a little time, and I go along
What else can I do, and maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you, so you lie
Till you can find a way to say goodbye, you lie
How long until you just can't go on
And the urge to break loose is just too strong
You should let go, that's what you wanna do
Oh but you don't know
(You don't know)
If it's the right thing to do
So you lie, you don't want to hurt me
So you lie, buy a little time, and I go along
What else can I do, and maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you, so you lie
Till you can find a way to say goodbye, oh you lie
You lie, oh you lie

You talked me into moving in and giving you my key
You said you'd be a mess now if it hadn't been for me
You said I stole your heart away by looking in your eyes
I wonder now how many times you sold that pack of lies
If this is how you act when you give your heart away
Well, take it back
Take it back
You told me I was everything you wanted and more
Then tell me what you're doing now sneaking out the back door
You're bringing home flowers and a bottle of Chablis
You forgot I don't drink wine I know that bottle's not for me
If this is how you act when you give your heart away
Well, take it back
Take it back
Oh, you must think I'm blind
And I don't smell your new cologne
You don't think I notice
All the nights I spend alone
Well, I'm not one for sitting 'round in some ole pity pool
You think you got a ticket and I must be some kind of fool
I hate to steal your thunder but your playing days are through
At least they are with me cause babe, I got no use for you
Tonight laying on the street
Babe, your bag is packed

Well back in 1876 an ol' boy named Bell
Invented a contraption that we know so well
By the 1950's they're in everybodys home
It's a crazy little thing they call a telephone
Now there's one in every corner,in the back of every bar
You can get one in your briefcase,on a plane or in your car
Chorus:
So tell me why,haven't I,heard from you
Tell me why,haven't I,heard from you
I said now darlin',honey,what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
Well there's no problem gettin to me baby you can dial direct
I got call forward and call waitin' you can even call collect
the service man he told me that my phone was workin' fine
And I have come to the conclusion trouble isn't with my line
I'm sure the operator will be glad to put you through
So dial zero for assisstance if this all confuses you
Chorus:
So tell me why,haven't I,heard from you
Tell me why,haven't I,heard from you
I said now darlin',honey,what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
There'd better be a flood
A landslide of mud
A fire that burns up the wires
And thunder so loud with black funnel cloud
A natural disaster I know nothin about
Chorus:
Tell my why,haven't I,heard from you
Tell me why,haven't I,heard from you,yeah
I said now darlin',honey,what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
Chorus:
Tell me why,haven't I,heard from you
Tell me why,haven't I,heard from you
I said now darlin',honey,what is your excuse

You spend an awful lot of time in Massachusetts
Seems Like every other week you've got a meeting waiting there
Business must be booming or could something else
Be moving in the air up there
You say that its important for our future
An executive on his way up has got to play the part
Each time duty calls you got to give it all
You've got with all your heart
When whoever's in New England is through with you
And Boston finds better things to do
You know its not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to come back to
When whoever's in New Englands through with you
I hear the winter time up north can last forever
And I've been told its beautiful to see this time of year
They say the snow can blind you till the world you left behind
Just disappears I hear
I've packed your bags and left them in the hallway
But before you leave again theres just one thing you outta know
When the icy winds blow through you remember that its me
Who feels the cold most of all
When whoever's in New England is through with you
And Boston finds better things to do
You know its not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to come back to

When you have a child
You learn it's a serious business to have a little fun
You give grace and get forgiveness
Not seven times seventy but seven times seventy-one
And when you have a child
Those four walls you call a house
Take on a life of its own when you bring 'em home
You will cry and you will laugh
When they hurt it cuts you in half, it's your flesh and bone
*Chorus*
And year after year
Pictures fill page after page
They never really grow up
Still your baby at any age
And the first time you hold 'em, it's like you see God smile
When you have a child
And then boy meets girl
And perfume and gasoline rain on your perfect world
Curfews are often broken, thank yous aren't spoken
He's got the keys to that old Dodge, and she's wearing a corsage and her mama's pearls
*Repeat Chorus*
You pray that phone call never comes
And if God forbid how would you live
How could you go on and on and on and on
And year after year close the chapter and turn the page
Blue ribbons and losing season, flipping tassels on the stage
Oh but you don't need a photograph
You've got at least a million pictures of that smile
Oh when you close your eyes
When you love a child

I've got something to tell you that I just can't say
So I'm writing it down in case maybe someday
Our lives take a turn down a road
We can't see right now
I know you're happy and I'm happy for you
But since you found each other
I've been so confused
Cause I believe there's one soul on this earth
That was meant for mine
I was sent here to find
What if it's you
What if our hearts were meant to be one
What'll I do
Knowing that I'll never love anyone
As much as I do love you
What if it's true
What if it's you
If destiny called and I missed my cue
Do I get one more chance
Oh how I wish I knew
I'll never again put my heart in the hands of fate
If it's not too late
What if it's you
What if our hearts were meant to be one
What'll I do
Knowing that I'll never love anyone
As much as I do love you
What if it's true
What if it's you
If I ever hold you I'll never let go
But if I never do how will I know
What if it's you
What if our hearts were meant to be one
What'll I do
Knowing that I'll never love anyone
As much as I do love you
What if it's true
What if it's you
What'll I do
What if it's true

Stuck at a red light outside an adult bookstore
His son said, "Daddy, what are all those X's for"
As the light turned green he changed the subject fast
He started talkin' 'bout football as they drove right past
CHORUS:
So what do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words oh to tell it like it is
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way
Let's get out of here oh what do you say
Seventeen years old she was out with her friends
They started drinken' at some party 'til she was three sheets to the wind
Her momma always told her she can call no matter what
She was cryin' on the front steps when her mom showed up
CHORUS:
What do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words oh to tell it like it is
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way
Let's get out of here oh what do you say
Sometimes you got to listen to the silence
And give yourself a little time to think
Her every breath is weaker than the last
And lately when she sleeps she talks about the past
Her husband knows she's tired of holding on
She looks at him and says I want to go home
What do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words to tell it like it is
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way
Oh what do you say
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way
Oh what do you say

No Good, Two Timin', Lies comin' outta your mouth.
Cheatin', mistreatin' games that you play brought you down.
Broke my heart, tore it apart, look who's got the last laugh now.
Don't you come crawlin' back begging please on your knees, baby if you're missin' me.
(Chorus)
Well, you can hear me on the radio!
You wanna turn me on, turn on your stereo.
You can sing along, while they're playin' our song. How you done me wrong...
Baby crank it up!
Until you blow the speakers out your Chevy truck.
So listen Romeo, when you're feelin' kinda low, let me tell you where to go.
Turn On The Radio!
Try to call, twitter me, text until your fingers bleed.
Oh! The DJ's the only way you're ever gonna hear from me.
If you're reminiscing, and you're missin me this much, and you really wanna stay in touch.
(Chorus)
Well, you can hear me on the radio!
You wanna turn me on, turn on your stereo.
You can sing along, while they're playin' my song. How you done me wrong...
Baby crank it up!
Until you blow the speakers out your Chevy truck.
So listen Romeo, when you're feelin' kinda low, let me tell you where to go. Oh
Turn On The Radio!
Whoaaoooa!
Turn On The Radio!
Turn On The Radio
Oh!Oh!OhOhOh!Oh!Ohh!
(Chorus)
Oh! You can hear me on the radio!
You wanna turn me on, turn on your stereo.
You can sing along, while they're playin' my song. How you done me wrong...
Baby crank it up!
Until you blow the speakers out your Chevy truck.
So listen Romeo, when you're feelin' kinda low, let me tell you where to go.
When you're feelin' kinda low, let me tell you where to go.
Turn On The Radio!
Turn On The Radio!
Turn On, Turn On The Radio!
Turn On The Radio!
Turn On The Radio, Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Ohhh!

I sent you roses, I warned you I would
Do all that I could to show you the way that I feel
Please, don't say I'm wasting my time
I've got nothin' but time so I'll do all that I can to catch
That ghost of a chance
The sunlight, the moonlight
Are beyond my control
And there are stars in the heavens
That I'll never hold
But if dreams give you power
Then I'm strong enough to offer my heart
And never give up till you love me
Till you love me
I looked in your eyes, so bright and so blue
And that's when I knew that you could be mine
If good things come to those who will wait
Well, I guess I can wait if that's what I have to do
Oh, it's worth it for you
The sunlight, the moonlight
Are beyond my control
And there are stars in the heavens
That I'll never hold
But if dreams give you power
Then I'm strong enough to offer my heart
And never give up till you love me

(Bobby Russell)
He was on his way home from candle top
Been two weeks gone and he thought he'd stop
At Web's and have him a drink for he went home to her
Andy wo-lo said hello
He said "Hi what's a doing?"
Wo said "Sit down I got some bad news that's gonna hurt
Said I'm your best friend and you know that's right
But your young bride ain't home tonight
Since you been gone she's been seeing that amos boy Seth"
He got mad and he saw red
Andy said "Boy don't you lose your head
Cause to tell you the truth I've been with her myself"
Chorus:
That's the night the lights went out in georgia
That's the night that they hung an innocent man
Don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer
Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hand
Andy got scared and left the bar
Walking on home cause he didn't live far you see
Andy didn't have many friends and he just lost him one
Brother thought his wife must've left town
So he went home and finally found the only thing
Daddy had left him and that was a gun
He went off to Andy's house
Slipping through the back woods quiet as a mouse
Came upon some tracks too small for Andy to make
He looked through the screen at the back porch door
He saw Andy lying on the floor
In a puddle of blood and he started to shake
The Georgia patrol was making their rounds
So he fired a shot just to flag 'em down
And a big bellied sheriff grabbed his gun and said
"Why'd you do it?"
The judge said guilty in a make believe trial
Slapped the sheriff on the back with a smile and said
"Suppers waiting at home and I got to get to it"
Chorus
They hung my brother before I could say
The tracks he saw while on his way
To Andy's house and back that night were mine
And his cheatin wife had never left town
And that's one body that'll never be found
You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun

(Reba)
Looking back over the years
Of All the things I've always meant to say
But words didn't come easily
So many times through empty fears
Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone
So scared of who might be answering
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
(Both)
'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
(Reba)
The heart won't lie
(Vince)
Long after tonight
Will you still hear my voice through the radio
Old desires make us act carelessly
Long after tonight, after the fire
After the scattered ashes fly
Through the four winds blown and gone
Will you come back to me?
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
(Both)
'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
(Vince)
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
(Both)
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
(Vince)
The heart won't lie
(Reba)

She got up and put her makeup on
Made a pot of coffee extra strong
At the kitchen table sucking on a cigarette
Read the paper in a cloud of smoke
While the dirty dinner dishes soaked
Woke up the kids and coaxed them out of bed
Then she burnt the toast just like the day before
The day she got divorced
Story continues below
Left the kids with the girl next door
Parked her car at the county court
Round and round 'bout the child support he'll never pay
Judge said we're gonna have to start
Without the party of the second part
Cause the party of the second part was MIA
He was getting drunk just like the day before
The day she got divorced
Didn't feel any different than it ever had
She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad
Couldn't love him any less or hate him anymore
The day she got divorced
Wasn't working, had the whole day off
Bought a bottle then she called her boss
Waited for him at the motel lot til he got there
First he told her that her hair looked nice
Promised he was gonna leave his wife
Had two more lines but she didn't care
Cause it was just like every other day before
The day she got divorced
Didn't feel any different than it ever had
She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad
Couldn't love him any less or hate him anymore
The day she got divorced
Kids are yakking with their hungry mouths
Dog scratching laying on the couch
Think she really oughta clean this house, but what the hell
Cause it's just as dirty as the day before

I met an old man yesterday next to me on a west bound plane
He said, "I was married 60 years. I swear it feels like she's still here."
Then he took out her picture
Staring at that black and white, the tears filled up in his eyes
I said you were a lucky man, he said I feel like I still am
When he told me her name, I heard myself say
Chorus
I wanna be somebody's Chelsea
Somebody's world
Somebody's day and night, one and only girl
A part of a love story that never has an end
You know that's what every woman wants to be
Somebody's Chelsea
He made me laugh when he talked about their first date and her father's doubts
He said "Even as her hair turned gray, she still took my breath away and that never changed with time."
That's when I closed my eyes
Repeat Chorus
And when we finally said goodbye I hugged him and said
"I'll never forget how you showed me what it means
To be somebody's Chelsea
Somebody's world
Somebody's day and night, one and only girl
A part of a love story that never has an end
You know that's what every woman wants to be
And I want to be
Somebody's Chelsea
Somebody's Chelsea
Somebody's Chelsea

It sure gets quiet
When the kids go to bed
We sit here inthe silence
Putting off what must be said
I read a book you watch T.V.
As our love dies quietly
I'm so sad I don't know what I've just read
(Chorus)
Somebody should leave
But which one should it be
You need the kids
And they need me
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
We keep hopin' somehow
We might need each other again
You say goodnight
And turn to face the wall
We lie here in the darkness
And the tears start to fall
If it was only you and me
Goodbye might come more easily
But what about
Those babies down the hall
(Repeat Chorus)
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in

Her husband left on Saturday
For a woman that was half her age
Sunday she just stayed in bed
With the covers pulled over her head
But on Monday mornin' she woke up
And loaded up her pickup truck
Took one last look at her old life
Then hit the gas n said "goodbye"
In her faded jeans
And her old baseball cap
All she knows for sure
She ain't comin' back
This isn't how she thought
She'd ever spend this day
Sittin' behind the wheel
On the interstate
40 was quite a ride
But she's changin' roads tonight
And it's such a bittersweet way
To celebrate
She's turning 50 today
She's left that Oklahoma town
The only world she had known til now
And memories of almost 20 years
She watched them in that rearview mirror
Fade away.. aww, but that's alright
Yeah this could be..
The time of her life
This isn't how she thought
She'd ever spend this day
Sittin' behind the wheel
On the interstate
40 was quite a ride
But she's changin' roads tonight
And it's such a bittersweet way to celebrate
She's turning 50 today
Oh, the wind blows her down (wind blows her down)
And the wind blows her hair (wind blows her hair)
Where she goes..
Could be anywhere
40 was quite a ride
But she's changin' roads tonight
Tomorrow's a mystery
Oh n she can't wait (she can't wait)
She's turnin' 50
She's turnin' 50

In this life we all go through hard times
When we struggle and pray for a lifeline
Just needing someone
To show us the way
To you the glass might seem half empty
But it's half full to those without any
So hold on to hope
And try to have faith
Oh, you've got to have faith
If there's just one secret to living
Whoever you are
It's learning the meaning of giving
With an open heart/With an open heart
If you offer the best part of yourself
Even when you don't have anything else
Honest and true
It'll come back to you
Love comes back to you
If there's just one secret to living
Whoever you are
It's learning the meaning of giving
With an open heart/With an open heart
With your arms wide open
The world opens wide
And you'll believe it deep inside
That there's just one secret to living
Whoever you are
It's finding that true joy in giving

She's quiet this morning she can't say why
Sends her husband off to work with a kiss goodbye
Unlocks that old diary turns to the third of May
Adds another tear to the page
And it's lonely being the only one who knows the truth
She has a secret that she can never tell
One wrong decision still puts her heart through hell
Does he miss her does he forgive her
The love that they shared will always be a secret
Only she knows she still loves him and she hates the choice she made
Wishes she could find him tell him why she walked away
Every day gets harder livin' with herself
But she knew he's be better of raised by someone else
God,it's lonely being the only one who knows the truth
She has a secret that she can never tell
One wrong decision still puts her heart through hell
Does he miss her does he forgive her
The love that they shared will always be a secret
Only she knows she still loves him and she hates the choice she made
Wishes she could find him tell him why she walked away
Every day gets harder livin' with herself
But she knew he's be better of raised by someone else
God,it's lonely being the only one who knows the truth
She has a secret that she can never tell
One wrong decision still puts her heart through hell
Does he miss her does he forgive her
The love that they shared will always be a secret
She unlocks that old diary turns to the third of May

I always knew this day would come
The world is just too small
To keep out paths from crossin'
Here we are just look at us
I always wondered what I'd say
Would I tell you that life is great
And gettin' better all the time?
Really lookin' up
Would I be too proud to show my heart?
Well, to tell the truth it's not that hard
I'm still not over you
And still the only thing I wanna do
Is open up my arms and reach for you
And to hear you say, you want me too
You're the one for me
And time doesn't seem to disagree
Baby, I'm still not over you, gettin' over me
I guess, I'll never be over you
So there it is, I've said it now
God, I wish someway somehow
You'd look at me with those big blue eyes
And say you missed me too
But you moved on, I understand
Yeah, I tried that too but here I am
I'm still not over you
And still the only thing I wanna do
Is open up my arms and reach for you
And hear you say, you want me, too
You're the one for me
And time doesn't seem to disagree
Baby, I'm still not over you, gettin' over me
I guess, I'll never be
Strong enough to finally set you free
I know love will never let me be over you

Oh on a park bench in the middle of July
We sat and watched the children play
If it was the heat or the noise
He didn't have too much to say
Then with a move of his eyes
A move that could have made the wind stand still
He took my hand in his and said the words
That I never will forget
He said have you ever cheated on me
Has there been someone else
Is there someone you love more than me
Someone you can't forget
If his memory is opened again
Let it be chased away by time
He said have you ever cheated on me
I said only in my mind
How can I tell him
The time we spent together
Was time between friends
There's just somethings I can talk about with you
That I can't just talk with him
How can I tell you
That somewhere in the cards it was meant for us to be
Why am I blushing in front of you now
Is it you or the heat
He said have you ever cheated on me
Has there been someone else
Is there someone you love more than me
Someone you can't forget
If his memory is opened again
Let it be chased away by time
He said have you ever cheated on me
I said only in my mind
Darling have you ever cheated on me

You're asking me to open up
I'm tryin' my best to give enough
To keep this love alive
It wouldn't be so hard for me to do
If it hadn't have been for all my heart's been through
But once you've learned to be lonely
And lonely is the only thing you've known
It begins to feel like home
It becomes your comfort zone
Once you've learned to be without someone
And settle for the silence of an empty room
Oh,it changes you
There's a lot you have to undo
Once you've learned to be lonely
It becomes a habit of the heart
To be afraid and even start
To try and love again
I want to give you myself to you
But I've been alone that I'm scared to move
But once you've learned to be lonely
And lonely is the only thing you've known
It begins to feel like home
It becomes your comfort zone
Once you've learned to be without someone
And settle for the silence of an empty room
Oh,it changes you
There's a lot you have to undo
Once you've learned to be lonely
I've built walls but I feel them falling down
Touch by touch your love is my way out
But once you've learned to be lonely
And lonely is the only thing you've known
It begins to feel like home
It becomes your comfort zone
Once you've learned to be without someone
And settle for the silence of an empty room
Oh,it changes you
There's a lot you have to undo
Once you've learned to be lonely
There's a lot you have to undo

Well, I'm sittin' on a bus
Rollin' down thru Georgia
I don't know where I'm goin'
And I don't care what's new
I got nothin' to lose
Well I've had no sleep
Goin' on three days
And is this old paper bag
Somewhere near in luggage?
It's true
I got nothin to lose
Nothin' to lose
Since I lost you
Feelin all alone
I used to have it all
And now my heart is gone
it's true
I got nothin' to lose
Well, we're comin up on Macon
Gonna rest here a spell
Makin' idle conversation
With a stranger without you
I got nothin' to lose
Nothin to lose
Since I lost you
Feelin' all alone
I used to have it all
And now my heart is gone
It's true
I got nothin' to lose
(instumental)
Oooohhh, ooohh
Nothin' to lose
Oooohhh, ooohh
Since I lost you
Whoa oh oh
You left me with no worries
You left me with no cares
You took my whole life with you
Then you left me standin' there
It's true
I got nothin' to lose
Nothin to lose
Since I lost you
Feelin' all alone
I used to have it all
And now my heart is gone
It's true
I got nothin' to lose
Yeah, it's true
I've got nothin' to lose
I've got nothin', nothin' left to lose
I've got nothin', nothin' left to lose
I've got nothin', nothin' left to lose
Oooohhh, ooohh
Nothin' to lose
Oooohhh, ooohh

Hey girl, it's me
I just called to tell you hi
Call me when you get this
Haven't talked lately
So hard to find the time
Give the boys a big kiss
Tell them that I miss them
By the way I miss you too
I was thinking just today
'Bout how we used to play
Barbie dolls and make up
Tea parties, dress up
I remember how we'd fight
And make up and laugh all night
Wish we were kids again
My sister...
My friend
Oh yeah, before I
Forget, I met someone
I think I really like him
I was just wonderin'
If I'm jumping' the gun
By going out on a limb
And invite him home for Christmas
To meet the family
Seems like just yesterday
You brought home old what's-his-name
He had been drinkin'
What were you thinkin'
After dinner he passed out
We can laugh about it now
We've learned a lot since then
My sister...
My friend
Do you think you could come and
See me sometime soon?
We could just hang out like
We used to
It's late and I should go
But I can't hang up the phone
Until I tell you
What I don't tell you enough
Even though at times it seemed
We were more like enemies
I'd do it all again...
My sister...

Another morning, another day in your life without someone there by you.
You had a dream again last night.
You wonder why the dream just won't come true.
So what ya gonna do.
Walk around with your head hung down.
Maybe that's the reason you've never found the one for you,
So you've got to let your love shine through your eyes, your smile.
You've got to let somebody know how you feel inside your heart.
You'll find, somebody wants to be a part of your life.
And if you just believe and say that's what you're gonna do,
One day love will find it's way to you.
Yes it will.
One day love will find it's way to you.
Another party, and all your friends are smiles.
Oh you might meet someone new.
And being close would be so nice.
In this life the chances are so few.
So what ya gonna do.
Walk around with your head hung down.
Maybe that's the reason you've never found the one for you,
So you've got to let your love shine through you eyes, your smile.
You've got to let somebody know how you feel inside your heart.
You'll find, somebody wants to be a part of your life.
And if you just believe and say that's what you're gonna do,
One day love will find it's way to you.
Oh yes it will.
One day love will find it's way to you.
Don't you think you're the only one.
Oh somewhere in the world there's a lonely heart looking for someone.
You've got to let your love shine through you eyes, your smile.
You've got to let somebody know how you feel inside your heart.
You'll find, somebody wants to be a part of your life cause your eyes, your smile.
You've got to let somebody know how you feel inside.

Well I'm married to the good life
I said I'd be a good wife
When I put on this ring
I drive a new Mercedes
I play tennis with the ladies
I buy all the finer things
But all that don't mean nothing
When you can't get a good night's loving
Oh little rock
Think I'm gonna have to slip you off
Take a chance tonight and untie the knot
There's more to life than what I've got
Oh little rock
You know this heart of mine just can't be bought
I'm gonna find someone who really cares a lot
When I slip off this little rock
Well I wonder if he'll miss me
He doesn't even kiss me
When he comes home at night
He never calls me honey
But he sure loves his money
And I'm the one who pays the price
But when he finds this ring he'll see
He keeps everything but me
Oh little rock
Think I'm gonna have to slip you off
Take a chance tonight and untie the knot
There's more to life than what I've got
Oh little rock
You know this heart of mine just can't be bought
I'm gonna find someone who really cares a lot
When I slip off this little rock
Oh little rock
Think I'm gonna have to slip you off
Take a chance tonight and untie the knot
There's more to life than what I've got
Oh little rock
You know this heart of mine just can't be bought
I'm gonna find someone who really cares a lot

3 o'clock in the mornin' when the telephone started ringin'
I had a feelin' it wouldd be you
I'd didn't want to take it but I let my imagination think
Of some kind of trouble you gotten into
And I just had to answer n you had to stop cryin'
And I, I tried to fight it
But I thought if I didn't listen to you
That I wouldn''t be much of a friend
I let you come over n cry on my shoulder
For the hundredth time over again
And all those old emotions came rainin' out of the room
Just when I thought I'd stopped lovin' you
You got a way of knowin' when I'm on the edge of givin' in
And how to use those beautiful eyes
So if one day you're askin' me, if I ever thought that maybe
We outta give it one more try?
And I just had to answer n you, you had to start smilin'
And I thought about lyin'
But I thought if I wasn't honest with you
That I wouldn't be much of a friend
I let you come over n cry on my shoulder
For the hundredth time over again
And all those old emotions came rainin' out of the room
Just when I thought I'd stopped lovin' you
Oh I hate you for makin' me crazy
So why is it that I..
I keep on takin' you right back baby?
But I thought if I didn't listen to you
That I wouldn't be much of a friend
I let you come over n cry on my shoulder
For the hundredth time over again
And all those old emotions came rainin' out of the room
Just when I thought I'd stopped lovin' you
Just when I thought I'd stopped lovin' you
You take two steps down the highway
But you come runnin' back
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do with that?
Wrap my arms around you!

It's your call, It's her
Would you rather take it in the other room
She's hangin' on and so am I
Yeah, I know all about it don't act so surprised
It's time to end this game you're playin'
She's not the only one who's waitin' on the line
It's your call
It's up to you
And I won't try to stop you if you go
But if you stay tell her goodbye
I can't take another minute
I can't stand another night
Of wondering if I even matter
It's something only you can answer
Here's the phone, It's your call
There's no easy way out this time
Cause I won't live this way
She called here to talk to you
With a message that I can't take
Oh, I've got to know if I still matter
It's somethin' only you can answer

She married when she was twenty
She thought she was ready
Now she's not so sure
She thought she'd done some living
But now she's just wonderin'
What she's living for
Now she's feeling that there's something more
Is there life out there
So much she hasn't done
Is there life beyond
Her family and her home
She's done what she should
Should she do what she dares
She doesn't want to leave
She's just wonderin
Is there life out there
She's always lived for tomorrow
She's never learned how
To live for today
She's dyin' to try something foolish
Do something crazy
Or just get away
Something for herself for a change
Is there life out there
So much she hasn't done
Is there life beyond
Her family and her home
She's done what she should
Should she do what she dares
She doesn't want to leave
She's just wonderin
Is there life out there
There's a place in the sun that she's never been
Where life is fair and time is a friend
Would she do it the same as she did back then
She looks out the window and wonders again
Is there life out there
So much she hasn't done
Is there life beyond
Her family and her home
She's done what she should
Should she do what she dares
She doesn't want to leave
She's just wonderin
Is there life out there
Is there life out there
So much she hasn't done
Is there life beyond
Her family and her home
She's done what she should
Should she do what she dares
She doesn't want to leave
She's just wonderin

I was born 3 months too early
The doctor gave me 30 days
but I must have had my momma's will
And God's amazing grace
I guess I'll keep on livin'
Even if this love's to die for
Cause your bags are packed and I ain't cryin'
You're walking out and I'm not tryin' to change your
mind
Cause I was born to be...
Chorus:
The baby girl without a chance
A victim of the circumstance
The one who oughta give up
But she's just too hard headed
A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stops
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor....
I don't believe in self-pity
It only brings you down
Maybe the queen of broken hearts
But I don't hide behind the crown
When the deck is stacked against me
I just play a different game
My roots are planted in the past
And though my life is changing’ fast
Who I am is who I wanna be
Chorus:
The baby girl without a chance
A victim of circumstance
The one who oughta give up
But she's just too hard headed
A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stops
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor....
oh...A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stops
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor....
But I must have had my momma's will
And God's amazing grace

No, I don't want no 'Jack n Coke'
Please sit me where there ain't no smoke
Dont want nothin' cloudin' up my eyes
But you see that girl all over there
Actin' like she's on thin air
There got to be a secret to her smile
Well, I think that I just found him
And he's twirlin' her around
I'd like to place my order
You might want to write this down
I'll have what she's havin'
I want what she's got
Someone sweet as he can be
And by the way, that hot
A tall order, I suppose
But if you could find me one of those
I'll have what she's havin'
Well, I like the way he looks at her
It's plain to see, he knows the words
That makes her shine from 40 feet away
If there's any justice in this world
He's got a twin who wants a girl
Who looks like me, excuse me while I pray
So if you could slip my number
In that pocket on his hip
It would be appreciated
And reflected in your tip
I'll have what she's havin'
I want what she's got
Someone sweet as he can be
And by the way, that hot
A tall order, I suppose
But if you can find me one of those
I'll have what she's havin'
A tall order, I suppose
But if you can find me one of those
I'll have what she's havin'
Well, I know it's wrong to think of it
But why should she have all of it
I'll have what she's havin'

When darkness falls upon your heart and soul
I'll be the light that shines for you
When you forget, how beautiful you are
I'll be there to remind you
When you can't find your way
I'll find my way to you
When troubles come around
I will come to you
I'll be your shoulder
When you need someone to lean on
Be your shelter
When you need someone to see you through
I'll be there to carry you, I'll be there
I'll be the rock that will be strong for you
The one that will hold on to you
When you feel that rain fallin' down
When there's nobody else around
I'll be
And when you're there, with no one there to hold
I'll be the arms, that reach for you
And when you feel your faith is running low
I'll be there to believe in you
When all you find are lies
I'll be the truth you need
When you need someone to run to
You can run to me
I'll be your shoulder
When you need someone to lean on
Be your shelter
When you need someone to see you through
I'll be there to carry you, I'll be there
I'll be the rock that will be strong for you
The one that will hold on to you
When you feel that rain fallin' down
When there's nobody else around
I'll be
I'll be the sun
When your hearts filled with rain
I'll be the one
To chase the rain away
I'll be your shoulder
When you need someone to lean on
Be your shelter
When you need someone to see you through
I'll be there to carry you, I'll be there
I'll be the rock that will be strong for you
The one that will hold on to you
When you feel that rain fallin' down
When there's nobody else around
I'll be

When I heard that familiar voice
My heart stopped dead in it's tracks
Across the room I could see him there
A ghost from my past
But he's too caught up to notice me
She must be his new love
I never dreamed that it would hurt this much
It's just
I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh how he feels
How soft his kiss is
And it cuts right down to the bone
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes it's real
Oh I've been there
And I know how he feels
As long as I kept him outta sight
I kept from going out of my mind
Tried to believe that leavin' him
Was somehow justified
But tonight there's no denying
What a love like his is worth
He once looked at me
The way he's looking at her
What a lucky girl
I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh how he feels
How soft his kiss is
And it cuts right down to the bone
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes it's real
Oh I've been there

Love takes the patience of Job
That's what my Mama always said
Faith is the belief in something more than what you know
That's what the good book says
You gotta play the cards you got
Who knows what fate is holding
At times you gotta go
Without knowing where you're going
That's why I keep on lovin' you, I keep on lovin' you
Through the baby-don't-leave-mes
And never-will-agains
And I-promise-tos, I keep on lovin' you
Lord knows we've had our share of fights
Our sleepless nights, our ups and downs
We've had plenty and then some
Of baby-I'm-gones and turnarounds
Sometimes I swear it might be easier
To throw in the towel
Someday we're gonna look back
And say look at us now
That's why I keep on lovin' you, I keep on lovin' you
Through the baby-don't-leave-mes
And never-will-agains
And I-promise-tos
I keep on lovin' you, keep on lovin' you
Through the I-take-it-backs
I-didn't-mean-it-like-thats
I'd-never-hurt-yous, oh, I keep on lovin' you
I keep on lovin' you, I keep on lovin' you
Through the baby-don't-leave-mes
And never-will-agains
And I-promise-tos
I keep on lovin' you, I keep on lovin' you
Through the I-take-it-backs
I-didn't-mean-it-like-thats
I'd-never-hurt-yous, oh, I keep on lovin' you

On a park bench in the middle of July we sat and watched the children play,
If it was the heat or the noise, we didn't have too much to say.
Then with a move of his eyes, a move that would have made the moon stand still,
He took my hand in his and said the words that I never will forget.
He said "Have you ever cheated on me, has there been someone else?
Is there someone you love more than me, someone you can't forget.
Get his memory in the open again, let it be chased away by time".
He said "Have you ever cheated on me?" I said "Only in my mind".
How can I tell him the time we spend together is time between friends ?
There's just somethings I can talk about with you, that I just can't say to him.
How can I tell him that somewhere in the cards it was meant for us to meet ?
Am I blushing in front of him now, is it you or the heat ?
He said "Have you ever cheated on me, has there been someone else?
Is there someone you love more than me, someone you can't forget.
Get his memory in the open again, let it be chased away by time".
He said "Have you ever cheated on me?" I said "Only in my mind".

He says he loves her...what can you say to that
He's made up his mind and there ain't nothin' you can do
So you swallow hard...maybe you drive all night
Tryin' to figure out where the whole thing started goin' wrong
And in the silence something begins to unravel
You never knew him like you'll be knowing him now
Fallin' out of love and back into your life
Pullin' your heart out from under the knife
Closin' the door on all those dreams you used to know
Fallin' out of love and back on your feet
Turnin' away from that dead end street
And finding out that nothing feels as good as letting go
That's when he calls you up out of the blue one day
And you know he thinks he's talkin' to the girl you used to be
So when you tell him he's just a memory
Ain't it funny how his voice cracks when you're sayin' goodbye
And in the silence something begins to unravel
He never knew you like he'll be knowing you now
Fallin' out of love and back into your life
Pullin' your heart out from under the knife
Closin' the door on all those dreams you used to know
Fallin' out of love and back on your feet
Turnin' away from that dead end street
And finding out that nothing feels as good as letting go
Oh and nothing feels as good as letting go

Featuring: Kenny Chesney
Every other Friday
It's toys and clothes and backpacks
Is everybody in? Okay, let's go see Dad
Same time in the same spot
Corner of the same old parking lot
Half the hugs and kisses, they are always sad
We trade a couple words
And looks and kids again
Every other weekend
Every other weekend, very few exceptions
I pick up the love we made in both my arms
It's movies on the sofa
Grilled cheese and cut the crust off
But that's not the way Mom makes it
Daddy breaks my heart
I miss everything
I used to have with her again
Every other weekend
I can't tell her I love her
(I can't tell him I love him)
'Cause there's too many questions
And ears in the car
So I don't tell him I miss him
(I don't tell her I need her)
She's over me, that's where we are
So we're as close as we might ever be again
Every other weekend
Every other Saturday, first thing in the morning
I turn the TV on to make the quiet go away
I know why, but I don't know
Why we ever let this happen
Fallin' for forever was a big mistake
There's so much not to do
And all day not to do with him
Every other weekend
Every other Sunday I empty out my backseat
While my children hug their mother in the parking lot
We don't touch, we don't talk much
Maybe goodbye to each other
As she drives away with every piece of heart I got
I re-convince myself
We did the right thing
Every other weekend
I can't tell her I love her
(I can't tell him I love him)
'Cause there's too many questions
And ears in the car
So I don't tell him I miss him
(I don't tell her I need her)
She's over me, that's where we are
We're as close as we might ever be again
Every other weekend
Yeah, for fifteen minutes
We're family again
God, I wish that he was still with me again

Reba:
I've known about you for a while now
When he leaves me he wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be
Linda:
But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I'll never see his face in the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytimes
And sometimes I have his nights
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Linda:
But when he's with me
He says he needs me
And that he wants me
That he believes in me
Reba:
And when I'm in his arms
Oh he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me
Or am I deceiving myself
(Am I deceiving myself)
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Reba:
Oh and shouldn't I lose my temper?
Linda:
Oh and shouldn't I be ashamed?
Reba:
Cuz I have everything to lose
Linda:
And I, I have nothing to gain
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Reba:

Every time I turn the conversation
To something deeper than the weather
I can feel you always shuttin' down
And when I need an explanation for the silence
You just tell me you don't wanna talk about it now
What you're not saying is coming in loud and clear
We're at a crossroads here
If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this
Then I guess, we're done, let's not drag this on
Consider me gone
With you I've always been wide open
Like a window or an ocean
There is nothing I've ever tried to hide
So when you leave me not knowin' where you're goin'
I start thinkin' that we're lookin', we're lookin' at goodbye
How about a strong shot of honesty?
Don't you owe that to me?
If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this
Then I guess, we're done, let's not drag this on
Consider me gone
Consider me a memory, consider me the past
Consider me a smile in an old photograph
Someone who used to make you laugh
If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
Then I guess, we're done, let's not drag this on
Consider me gone, consider me gone

(ruby hice, danny hice)Some folks say that a mother’s love is sweeter than the restWhen her baby’s nestled in her arms and feeding at her breastBut I can’t explain the feeling when you reach and touch my handBecause there’ nothing like the love between and woman and a manChorus:It’s a miracle from heavenThat it fills me through and throughLike a feeling that surrounds usTouching me touching youWhen you wrap your love around me it’s not hard to understandWhy there’s nothing like the love between and woman and a manWell the father’s love is quietBut it’s there for all to seeWhen a little boy is laughing bouncing on his daddy’s kneeThen those great big hands reach down to tuck his little cowboy inBut there’s nothing like the love between a woman and a manRepeat chorus 4 times

Thousands of people live in this town
And I had to run into him
When I saw him there on that busy street
Those feelings came back again
There was nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
He walked up to me, looked in my eyes
And still
The world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him still
He said how have you been
It's great to see you again
You're really a sight for sore eyes
I said I can't complain
Oh, I'm doing fine
We talked as the people rushed by
We laughed about old times and all we went thru
That's when he hugged me and said I've missed you
And still
The world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him still
That's when she walked up to him
He said this is my wife
I gave my best smile
But I was dying inside
He said we've gotta go now
It's getting late
It was so good to see you
Then they walked away
And still
The world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart

Mhmmm, Mhmmm, Owwww, Yeahhhhhh!
Well I can summon up my courage. Take on the whole world. Turn around and break down just like a little girl. And I come out swingin' when my back's against the wall.
And my Mama always told me better walk before you crawl. I need a man who can love all the women I am.
I'm a mother of lost causes. A sister of the road.
I give my heart to a song, but I never sell my soul. I'm good at keeping it together when the edges start to fray.
When I'm sewing up the loose ends of everyday.
I need a man who can love all the women I am.
Sometimes I'm hard to handle. Burn hotter than a candle, but I melt in the right hands. Boy you love without condition. It ain't always easy livin' with all the women I am.
I'm a daughter of the red dirt, Okie dust still in my bones. But I can light up New York City with my red hair and rhinestones. I'll still be my Mama's baby when my babies fly away. My moods change like the weather, but my faith it stays the same.
I need a man who can stand all the women I am.
I need a man who can love all the women I am.
Sometimes I'm hard to handle. Burn hotter than a candle, but I melt in the right hands. Boy you love without condition. It ain't always easy livin' with all the women I am.
Hey I'm a realist. I'm a dreamer. I'm a silver linin' seeker. I'm a devil or an angel who come running when you need her.
Cause I need a man who can love all the women I am. Ohh I want a man who can love all the women I am. Hey you're a man who can love all the women I am. You're the man I needed all along. You can handle me baby. All the women I am. Yeah you're the man.

I think about
Holding you and kissing you
Wanting you and missing you
Clock is ticking and the wind is howling and
I'm just staring at the candle burning
Bottle of red that we never opened
Your voice in my head tossing and turning
The radio is playing our song
Can't sing along, can't even listen
I dial your number but I don't let it ring
I think about holding you and kissing you
Wanting you and missing you
Building up and breaking down walls
I dream about finding you and keeping you
Loving you and living you
I'm telling you
I want it all, all of you
I can't let go and I can't keep
Holdin' on to nothing but I just
Keep trying to tell myself there's
A damn good reason but it's not
Enough to keep me from crying
I've memorized every look, every touch
Every time you told me our hearts weren't lying
I'm wondering now do you even know
I think about holding you and kissing you
Wanting you and missing you
Building up and breaking down walls
I dream about finding you and keeping you
Loving you and living you
I'm telling you
I want it all, all of you
I can't break free of you
I don't know how
Oh I'm not about
To let go
Of you
I love you
I need you now
I think about holding you and kissing you
Wanting you and missing you
Building up and breaking down walls
I dream about finding you and keeping you
Loving you and living you
I'm telling you
I want it all, all of you

Well there's a jukebox in my ear
Playing so loud I can hardly hear
And it's telling a story
About a boy like you
And each selection that I make
Tells me how my heart will break
Falling in love with a cowboy like you
When it's just an old machine
Without a heart but oh so mean
Says I'll probably spend my whole life feeling blue
So I'll just put in one more dime
And play that same song one more time
Cause I want to hear about a cowboy like you
When it's just an old machine
Without a heart but oh so mean
Says I'll probably spend my whole life feeling blue
So I'll just put in one more dime
And play that same song one more time
Cause I want to hear about a cowboy like you
I guess that I should go on home
But I can't stand to be alone
Cause I'll only dream about
A cowboy like you
Yeah I'll only dream about
