You can go out
Have a drink or two
Get real good at shootin pool
Stay out as late as you want to
When you’re single
You can take a trip to Vegas any day
Pick any coast and go catch some waves
Everybody says you’ve got it made
When you’re single
‘Til you’re coming home
To an empty house
Chips on the sofa
Just thinking about
What you had, what it was
That made you let her slip right through your hands
When you’re single
You’d trade it all to fall in love again
Its not easy
Knowing that you walked away from it all
I bet she’s out with somebody just laughing
Taking every bit of life on in now
She’s falling for him
While you’re coming home
To an empty house
Chips on the sofa
Just thinking about
What you had, what it was
That made you let her slip right through your hands
When you’re single
You’d trade it all to fall in love again
When you’re single you’d trade it all to fall in love again
Yeah I’m single and I’d trade it all to have you back again
Close your eyes
and picture this
laying in bed in the candle light
we start to kiss
holding your body in close to mine
now picture us in the moment before we make love
Now hold that thought
hold it right there
let you mind keep running wild
til I get there
Just imagine
me loving on you all night long
can you see it, feel it, girl are you there yet
Now hold that thought
Wish that I was already home
girl I been thinking about tonight all day long
so why do you lay back and fantize
about me and you
and everything we're gonna do
Now hold that thought
hold it right there
let your mind keep running wild
til I get there
Just imagine
me loving on you all night long
can you see it, feel it, girl are you there yet
Now hold that thought
Just imagine
me loving on you all night long
I can see it, feel it, girl are you there yet
hmmmmm
Now hold that thought
Now hold that thought
I've been down here for an hour,
Thinking how long does it take
For a girl to get a shower and touch up her pretty face
And pick out some clothes
And slip her champagne toes in some sexy high heeled shoes
Then you hit those steps and you took my breath
Oh my God girl look at you.
Might as well just stop right there,
Walk right back up those stairs.
CHORUS:
After seeing you, got a change in plans.
So much for plans.
Baby, pull your hair around,
Let me help you zip back down.
Just let it fall right where you stand
Oh, man, oh, man
That dress looks good on you for sure,
But even better on the floor
Had a table on the water, now I don't even care
Nothing even matters
After I caught a glimpse of you up there
Love to show you off,
Watch you drop some jaws, hanging on my arm
And the way you look now,
Girl I got some doubts we'll even make it to the car
I can’t make you turn around
I can’t take back what I did
I wouldn’t blame you if you hated me
Before you slam that open door
And throw away four good years
Think of everything we used to be
I know you say that you’re over me
But I’m asking you, begging you not to leave
What if I told you I’ll change
Would you still walk away
If I told you I loved you
Would you say that it’s too late
What if you could feel what I feel
When I watch you slowly drift away
What if you’re wrong, what if I’m right
You could move on
But what if you stay
I know right now it’s hard to breathe
Hard to think and hard to see
All the reasons we should work it out
It might be easier to go
But if you walk out you’ll never know
How strong we could be at the end of this
I know that sorry is not enough
But I’ll do everything, anything to make it up
What if I told you I’ll change
Would you still walk away
If I told you I loved you
Would you say that it’s too late
What if you could feel what I feel
When I watch you slowly drift away
What if you’re wrong, what if I’m right
You could move on
But what if you stay
What if I told you I’ll change
Would you still walk away
If I told you I loved you
Would you say that it’s too late
What if you could feel what I feel
When I watch you slowly drift away
What if you’re wrong, what if I’m right
You could move on
But what if you stay
I can’t make you turn around
I can’t take back what I did
Sometimes, love ain't enough,
and there's times where just giving up,
is all right.
No matter how much you want it to work,
someone's gonna get hurt.
Sometimes, it ain't about who's wrong,
and as bad as you want to hold on,
the right thing to do is to get out,
right now before its too late.
Yeah, the hardest part of leaving,
is picking up the keys and finding the nerve to start that car.
The first night is the longest, you're waking up alone,
and you find out how strong you really are.
But the rest is the easy part.
Before long, the phone's gonna ring,
and you're gonna want to answer his call.
But girl don't have the same conversation over and over,
let it be over.
Yeah, the hardest part of leaving,
is picking up the keys and finding the nerve to start that car.
The first night is the longest, you're waking up alone,
and you find out how strong you really are.
But the rest is the easy part.
There's an open road,
there's a life ahead.
But even though you can't see it yet,
you just take a chance.
You pick up the keys.
You find the nerve.
You start your car.
The rest is the easy part.
Yeah, the hardest part of leaving,
is picking up the keys and finding the nerve to start that car.
The first night is the longest, you're waking up alone,
and you find out how strong you really are.
But the rest is the easy part.
I came to see her daddy
For a sit down man to man
It wasn't any secret
I'd be asking for her hand
I guess that's why he left me waiting
In the living room by myself
With at least a dozen pictures of her
Sitting on a shelf
Playing Cinderella
She was riding her first bike
Bouncing on the bed
And looking for a pillow fight
Running through the sprinkler
With a big popsicle grin
Dancing with her dad
Looking up at him
In her eyes I'm Prince Charming
But to him I'm just some fella
Riding in and stealing Cinderella
I leaned in towards those pictures
To get a better look at one
When I heard a voice behind me say
"Now, ain't she something, son?"
I said, "Yes, she quite a woman"
And he just stared at me
Then I realized that in his eyes
She would always be
Playing Cinderella
Riding her first bike
Bouncing on the bed
And looking for a pillow fight
Running through the sprinkler
With a big popsicle grin
Dancing with her dad
Looking up at him
In her eyes I'm Prince Charming
But to him I'm just some fella
Riding in and stealing Cinderella
Oh he slapped me on the shoulder
Then he called her in the room
When she threw her arms around him
That's when I could see it too
She was playing Cinderella
Riding her first bike
Bouncing on the bed
And looking for a pillow fight
Running through the sprinklers
With a big popsicle grin
Dancing with her dad
Looking up at him
If he gives me a hard time
I can't blame the fella
Id give anything to go back
To do anything to go there
To take my breath away again
I still see your face right there
Staring at me and I swear
I can feel you here
When I close my eyes
I know I should drop everything
And run straight back to your side
Maybe I should take a bus ride
Maybe I should put this car in drive
Go find the love that we both used to know
Maybe I can find the one way
Maybe you’ll forgive me someday
No red light stopping me
Nothing gonna slow me down
Starting now
Every step every turn that I take
Every thought every move that I make
Brings me closer to you
If the day is done and I haven’t found you
I’ll take my love and I’ll turn around
Go down another road and try again
Yeah try again
Maybe I should take a bus ride
Maybe I should put this car in drive
Go find the love that we both used to know
Maybe I can find the one way
Maybe you’ll forgive me someday
No red light stopping me
Nothing gonna slow me down
Yeah, starting now
I’m gonna find a new way to love you
I’m gonna find the one way to hold you cuz
I just cant stay
Waiting around for your
Love to come back around
Back around
Maybe I should take a bus ride
Maybe I should put this car in drive
Go find the love that we both used to know
Maybe I can find the one way
Maybe you’ll forgive me someday
No red light stopping me
Nothing gonna slow me down
No red light stopping me
Never gonna slow me down
Starting now
Yeah, starting now
Im heading for ya baby
Starting now
Im gonna find ya baby
Starting now
She steppin' on the gas, going too fast
Driving with her knee
Trucker screamin?, ?Baby, pick a lane
You?re gonna hurt somebody?
Got the mirror sideways, puttin? on her face
No more cryin?
All she?s thinkin? ?bout is sweet revenge
She?s gonna hurt somebody
Some fool went and broke her heart
Bad move
I feel sorry for the guy
That winds up in her arms
He?s gonna wake up wonderin? what train
Just ran over his heart
With that little black dress
Those lava red lips
Ain?t but one thing on her mind
She?s gonna hurt somebody
She walks into the bar, even in the dark
See it in her eyes
Everybody whispers, ?Give her room?
She heads up to the band, napkin in her hand
Making her request
?Hey buddy, don?t you play that song?
She?s gonna hurt somebody
Some fool just asked her to dance
Bad move
I feel sorry for the guy
That winds up in her arms
He?s gonna wake up wonderin? what train
Just ran over his heart
With that little black dress
Those lava red lips
Ain?t but one thing on her mind
She?s gonna hurt somebody
She?s gonna hurt somebody
Yeah, I feel sorry for the guy
That winds up in her arms
He?s gonna wake up wonderin? what train
Just ran over his heart
With that little black dress
Those lava red lips
Ain?t but one thing on her mind
She?s gonna hurt somebody
She?s gonna hurt somebody
Girl, you’ve been so busy I ain’t seen you around
You got the world on your shoulders, let me help you put it down
Maybe come inside and leave it all behind
You got your boss, your friends, your family every second of the day
People push you, people pull you, a million different ways
I’m feeling it too, I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do
Now that I got you here all to myself
Baby, I ain’t sharing you with no-one else
You’ve been everybody else’s all week long
But tonight you’re mine, all mine
You go get the blinds, I’ll turn off the phone
Then I’ll pour a little wine, baby make yourself at home
All I wanna do is spend some time on you
Now that I got you here all to myself
Baby, I ain’t sharing you with no-one else
You’ve been everybody else’s all week long
But tonight you’re mine, all mine
It might sound a little selfish, I know
But can you blame me, I’ve been missing you so
Whoa, whoa
You’ve been everybody else’s all week long
But tonight you’re mine, all mine
Yeah, tonight you’re mine, all mine, all mine
6 A.M and Bobby’s wakin’ up
Rolls outta bed with sleepy eyes
Goes to his sister’s room across the hall
“Hey Daisy rise and shine”
He pours two bowls of Captain Crunch
Puts a fresh pot of coffee on
He wakes his momma up off the couch
The bus is here we love you mom
He made the breakfast
He did the dishes
So she wouldn’t have to
Oh he’s only ten
This comin’ of age he ought to be out playin’ ball
And video games
Climbin’ trees
Or on a bike just ridin’ around
But it’s hard to be a kid
When you’re the man of the house
It’s late at night and Larry King is on
Momma’s up on the couch again
Bobby hears them all talk about
That awful war his daddy’s in
So he runs off, straight up to his room
Don’t want his momma to see him right now
He climbs in bed and says a silent prayer
Then he cries his little blue eyes out
Don’t wanna let her down
Oh he’s only ten
This comin’ of age he ought to be out playin’ ball
And video games
Climbin’ trees
Or on a bike just ridin’ around
But it’s hard to be a kid
When you’re the man of the house
It’s finally Saturday
Bobby gets a phone call
Another world away from home
He says, “I love you dad”
Daddy says it right back
“Wish I could reach through this phone
And hug you, and Daisy, and your mom
I’m so proud of you son.”
He’s only ten
This comin’ of age he ought to be out playin’ ball
And video games
Climbin’ trees
Or on a bike just ridin’ around
But it’s hard to be a kid
When you’re the man of the house
It’s 6 A.M and Bobby’s wakin’ up
The prisons are empty, the homeless have houses
Nobody’s hungry, nobody’s poor
Nobody’s judged by their faith or their colour
Nobody’s wrong in this world without war
We buried our swords, we don’t fight any more
You can’t imagine all the mountains we’d move
If we loved, if we loved a little harder
Yeah, there’s no telling all the walls we’d break through
If we loved, if we loved a little harder
Nobody’s lonely, used or neglected
Children are cherished from the day that they’re born
Even a stranger’s never a stranger
No bars on the windows, no locks on our doors
Cos we open our doors, we’re not afraid any more
You can’t imagine all the mountains we’d move
If we loved, if we loved a little harder
Yeah there’s no telling all the walls we’d break through
If we loved, if we loved a little harder
Just think of how much better off we’d be
If we opened up our hearts, if we believed
Oh, you can’t imagine all the mountains we’d move
If we loved, if we loved a little harder
Yeah, there’s no telling all the walls we’d break through
If we loved, if we loved a little harder
If we loved, if we loved
If we loved a little harder
Girl you got me going
Yea I think you know it
Oh I'm ready for this ride
So come on take my hand
Cuz only you, you understand
How to kick this feeling into
Drive all night with me
Sing my favorite song and sleep
Under the stars on the hood of our car
It's all I've ever wanted
All I ever wanted was to
See you in the pale moon light
Just the way ya look tonight
And maybe some day
If love comes our way
We'll be walking in the meadow in the early spring
You'll be twirling in a sundress wearing my ring
Can you see it
Girl I believe em that
It's true
All I ever wanted
All I ever really wanted was you
If life is what you make it
Here's my chance I'll take it
You know I wanna make you mine
I have this picture in my mind
You were in it all the time
So baby hold on tight
And drive all night with me
Sing my favorite song and sleep
Under the stars on the hood of our car
It's all I've ever wanted
All I ever wanted was to
See you in the pale moon light
Just the way ya look tonight
And maybe some day
If love comes our way
We'll be walking in the meadow in the early spring
You'll be twirling in a sundress wearing my ring
Can you see it
Girl I believe em that
It's true
All I ever wanted
All I ever really wanted was you
All I ever wanted
Was to see you in the pale moon light

All I ever wanted
In the night when you call
I'll be waiting by the phone
To hear it all
And I won't leave until you call
Cause baby I don't wanna miss the way you fix me
Speak speak like you never spoke before
Walk with me through an open door
Cause then it all goes away
Eh eh eh
Fall fall with me from the highest ledge
Bring me down from the broken edge
Walk away with my heart
Eh eh eh
Take me back in open arms
Take me back to a brand new start
And Fix me
You look right when you call
I'll be waiting by the phone
To hear it all
And I won't leave until you call
baby I don't wanna miss the way you fix me
Ooooooh mhmmmmm you fix me
Wait wait till the morning comes
and then take me through it all again
cause baby we may want it more
I finally feel I can turn the page
Feel like my worlds about to change
and I want to do it again do it again
In the night when you call
I'll be waiting by the phone
to hear it all again
And I won't leave until you call
Cause baby I don't wanna miss the way you fix me
Mhmmmmmmm

And Take me back to a brand new start
Close your eyes
And picture this
Lyin' in bed in the candlelight
We start to kiss
I'm pulling your body in close to mine, now picture us
That moment before we make love
Now hold that thought
Hold it right there
Let your mind keep runnin' wild
'Til I get there
Just imagine
Me lovin' on you all night long
Can you see it? Feel it?
Girl, are you there yet?
Now, hold that thought
Wish that I
Was already home
'Cause girl I've been thinkin' about tonight
All day long
So why don't you lay back and fantasize about me and you
And everything we're gonna do
And hold that thought
Hold it right there
Let your mind keep runnin' wild
'Til I get there
Just imagine
Me lovin' on you all night long
Can you see it? Feel it?
Girl, are you there yet?
Now, hold that thought
Just imagine
Me lovin' on you all night long
I can you see it, feel it
Girl, are you there yet?
Now, hold that thought
Tryin' to keep my eyes on this windin' road
Oh, but it ain't easy with you paintin' your toes
With your feet up on the dash, your legs so long and tan
You're my Dixie girl with a summer smile
Oh, just enough sweet but just enough wild
Oh, it's just that kinda day everythin's goin' our way
We've got the sunshine, the coolers in the back
All day and all night, we'll see where this might go
We can drive real fast, girl while we take it slow
We've got the warm breeze blowin' off the coast
One hand on your knee, yeah we're gettin' close
I feel a good time, I feel a good time comin' on
Got a sleepin' bag thrown in the back
Oh, just in case it comes to that
With any luck this might end
At a campfire bound by the river bend
We've got the sunshine, the coolers in the back
All day and all night, we'll see where this might go
We can drive real fast, girl while we take it slow
We've got the warm breeze blowin' off the coast
One hand on your knee, yeah we're gettin' close
I feel a good time, I feel a good time comin' on
Strong as anythin' could be
How could this be wrong girl when we both agree?
We've got the sunshine all day and all night
We've got the sunshine, the coolers in the back
All day and all night, we'll see where this might go
We can drive real fast, girl while we take it slow
We've got the warm breeze blowin' off the coast
One hand on your knee, yeah we're gettin' close
I feel a good time, I feel a good time comin' on
I feel a good time

I like the way she talks to me,
I like the way she walks with me
I like a girl but she don’t know it yet.

She takes me back to the back seat of my jeep on a long
dark country road on a country night with the radio on
singing soft
and slow
OoO oOo OoO Oooooo Yeah ooooo she gets to me Yeah
laaaadada Ladaladada
I would like to take this girl on a Sunday drive
We could cruise around and talk about the house we buy
I like to give this girl, give her everything
Big old house and fancy cars, a diamond ring, yeah
She knows I know that we got something special here
that something I’d never let go away.
I know one day it will all be clear just why we’re here
and why we’re gonna stay, yeah.

Oh now she's going out, and making friends,
it never stops, it never ends,
the kinda girl, to slow it down, or drag you out on the dance floor, to dance around.
Oh, cause she's a cold beer, and football, a red dress, that just falls,
oh she's, oh she's, a bit of rain, and a lot of fire,
a good laugh, and a bad liar.
Oh she's, oh she's the whole damn thing.
She's the whole damn thing.
She's the kinda girl who makes a man do anything,
like fall in love, and get ya thinkin' bout the next step.
And you're wakin' up, it's burnt toast, a soft touch, that just knows, how to bring you back from a bad day.
And she's the kinda girl who ain't ever goin' away,

a good laugh, and a bad liar

She's the whole damn thing.

cause she's the whole, the whole damn thing.
Oh she's a cold beer, and football, a red dress, that just falls,
oh she's, oh she's a bit of rain, and a lot of fire,
a good laugh, and a bad liar
Oh she's, oh she's the whole damn thing.
She's the whole damn thing.

Feet up, anchor down
Thirty sun block
Getting rubbed around your body
Too hot dive in
Take a little swim
Float around out in the water
Aw what do you say

Where the sun sets on tan lines
Footprints on low tide
Boardwalk band plugging in for the night
Party boats are tying up
Cabo drinks are getting drunk
It's all good

Just getting high
On a salt life
On a salt life
Cool Breeze, palm trees
Start to feel ease of a beer buzz and I like it
A little too much
And all i wanna do is stay right here, right here with you, with you and baby

Party boats are tying up
Cabo drinks are getting drunk
It's all good
It's all right
