I've been around from town to town
I've seen a thing or two
I've been across this whole wide world
Looking for someone like you
I was a fool when I let you go
I guess I never knew
That I would spend the rest of my days
Looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
Spent some time with other guys
But that only made me blue
Now I know how hard it is
Looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
I don't want to feel like this
Without you there's just emptiness
I was wrong but now I see
That you're the only one there is for me
So baby won't you please come home
I'll do what you want me to do
And then I'll never have to worry again
About looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
What I deserve is comfort for my shaken soul
And the water on my hands are tears from long ago
And my skin let's it in, it's always been too thin
Since I can't remember when
And oh what I deserve, what I deserve, what I deserve
Oh darling what I deserve, what I deserve, what I deserve
There's solace in this dusty earth and rocky hills
Yeah but even starry skies can't mend my broken will
My blood doesn't pour, there's nothing to bleed for
I don't believe anymore
And oh what I deserve, what I deserve, what I deserve
Oh darling what I deserve, what I deserve, what I deserve
Now I have done the best I can
Oh but what I've done, it's not who I am
And oh what I deserve
Now time has left me feeling old and losing hope
Hell I've walked a long way just to find the end of my rope
And you say that I should pray, well I would but my faith has strayed
I don't believe I'll be saved
And oh what I deserve, what I deserve, what I deserve
Well when we started out on this trip a short while ago
I didn't even think we'd make it out your front door
You sped on down the highway I said you better go slow
You said we have four tires that were made to roll
I got a well travelled love with nothin' to guide me
But the stars up above and you right here beside me
When we reach our destination and there's no place left to go
We're gonna turn ourselves around and get back out on the road
Full tank of gas babe and nothin' but time
Easy path laid out by the highway lines
We got four lanes to choose from every one of them fast
Let's pick the one that's gonna make this feeling last
I got a well travelled love...
[ guitar ]
Well many times before I stumbled down the wrong track
With you behind the wheel I know there's no turning back
Let's roll down all the windows and put down the top
And hope to God this trip ain't never gonna stop
I got a well travelled love...
[ steel - guitar ]
I got a well travelled love...
The stars will be
Fading soon
We're losing our love
With the moon
Kiss me and say goodbye
Before we have to lie to our hearts
Be strong until it's late
'Cause our hearts will have to wait until dark
Remember the words
That we say tonight
But don't say anything
Once we're in the light
We have to waste the day
And we have to hide the way that we are
Tell me it's not our fate
That we will always wait until dark
We'll wait for the dark
How many hearts will break
If we don't wait
Kiss me and say goodbye
Before we have to lie to our hearts
Be strong until it's late
'Cause our hearts will have to wait until dark
We'll wait until dark
The time has told me
You're rare, rare to find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind
And time has told me
Not to ask for more
Someday our ocean
Will find its shore
So I'll leave the ways that are making me be
How I really don't wanna be
I'll leave the ways that are making me love
What I really don't wanna love
And time has told me
That you came with the dawn
A soul with no footprint
A rose with no thorn
Your tears, they tell me
There's really no way
Of ending your troubles
With things you can say
And time will tell you
To stay by my side
And to keep on trying
There's no more to hide
I'll leave the ways that are making you be
What you really don't want to be
I'll leave the ways that are making you love
What you really don't wanna love
And time has told me
That you're rare, rare to find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind
And time has told me
Not to ask for more
Well, someday our ocean
The demands made upon you are hard to live up to
It's futile to try and deny
And the things you hold dearly are scoffed at and yearly
Judged once and then tossed aside
'Cause they're blind
Yeah, they hold you too close to the light
And I see what they only might
If they'd learn but they're letting you burn
'Cause they're blind
To the brown-eyed beholder see the chip on your shoulder
The fools don't want to believe
That you're so hard to talk to and so easy to read through
And nobody looks past your sleeve
'Cause they're blind
Yeah, they hold you too close to the light
And I see what they only might
If they'd learn but they're letting you burn
'Cause they're blind
They only like what they can see
And what they don't they just don't agree
If you'll run to me, run run
Only like a day with him just one day with him
Then you'll run back, then you'll run back blind
An old man said to me
Go and take it easy now
You'll run to me, run run
Only like a day with him just one day with him
Then you'll run back, then you'll run back blind
Yeah, they hold you too close to the light
And I see what they only might
If they'd learn but they're letting you burn
'Cause they're blind
Letting you burn
'Cause they're blind
I'm a man in the rain
Here they come now, Teddy Boys
I'm a bad man all alone
I belong here, Teddy Boys
Oh, maybe I'm just lookin? for something nasty
Songs I'm gonna sing in jail
Or maybe I'm just lookin? for some affectations
Before somebody comes and kicks me out of the club
I'm a man, maybe two
And I see you, Teddy Boys
Like a mad dog in a dream
I want ice-cream, Teddy Boys
Oh, maybe I'm just lookin? for something nasty
Songs I'm gonna sing in jail
Oh, Bobby's not in trouble, baby, it's his birthday
And now somebody's come to kick me out of the club
Teddy Boys, Teddy Boys
Call me Jack anyway, could be fun
Here they come, anyone
You don't have to be clean to be seen
I'm a man movin? uptown
And the fat boys are trackin? me down
Oh my God, so I run and I run and I run
Till I'm right back laughin? with you
Ooh, Teddy Boys, Teddy Boys
I don't believe a word you're saying
And I know the game you're playing
So it's only just for now
That I will let you take me down
You always manage to be low
So I don't have a chance to go
And it's just temporary now
That I will let you take me down
Pick me up on your way down
Don't your feet ever touch the ground?
You know they never make a sound
And if I should turn out right
Say my prayers 'most every night
Now wouldn't that just be a sight? Yeah
I'm aware I should know better
But I don't when we're together
I'll forgive myself somehow
And I will let you take me down
I can't hold on to myself
And hold on to somebody else
So if I hold on to you now
Then I will let you take me down
Pick me up on your way down
Don't your feet ever touch the ground?
You know they never make a sound
And if I should turn out right
Say my prayers 'most every night
Now wouldn't that just be a sight? Yeah
Oh, yeah, oh
Pick me up on your way down
Don't your feet ever touch the ground?
You know they never make a sound
And if I should turn out right
Say my prayers 'most every night
Now wouldn't that just be a sight? Yeah
You better look out you're gonna get it I'm gettin' worried for you
You got no idea what you're gettin' into
I've been alone for all these years I know you've been hurting
This world can be hard on a boy like you
I know I know what you've been through
That ain't no reason to keep you feeling blue
Oh why this burning inside me searchin' for someone to satisfy me
So much love what am I gonna do I'll take it all out on you
It doesn't matter what's the matter you do what you gotta do
If it comes down to you need me and honey I need you
Oh let me tell you darlin' my love is true
Oh why this burning inside me...
[ guitar ]
Oh why this burning inside me...
Oh why this burning inside me...
Sweet little one, you are so blue

We?ll be alright now, the day's through

I got to do the twist
I got to do the twist
I wanna jump up and down
I wanna jump up and down
Oh yeah
Well you can test the water now it ain't no sin
Sometimes it's better just to dive right in into the river of love
There ain't no need for you to cast your line
My heart's the only treasure you will find in the river of love
Well the river of love where no lights shine
But the flame of love you put in this heart of mine
You can spend your life wishin' on the stars above
Or you can take your chances on the river of love
There ain't no anchor that can tie us down
We'll sail forever never run around on the river of love
There ain't no storm that we can't overcome
There are no heartaches that can steal you from from the river of love
[ guitar ]
Let's stay on board and ride it till the end
You never know just what's around the bend on the river of love
There ain't no need for you to cast your line
My heart's the only treasure you will find find on the river of love
Well the river of love where no lights shine...
River of love the river of love
We used to catch that old train every night about a quarter to five
And sit and watch that evening sun go down upon the moutain side
And with that red sun warming our hearts he told me what we would do
But as his heart grew colder my sunsets turned to blue
I lost my baby to the red sunset I lost my baby to the red sunset
I know he's coming but he ain't back yet I lost my baby to the red sunset
Well that red sunset used to warm our hearts
But now every time I see it it just tears me apart
We used to watch it set and it would set us free
But then that red sunset stole my baby from me
Now there's a hundred pretty girls in this town and not one of them shy
They could never turn his head even once no matter how they tried
But I could sleep at night just knowing it was one of then that took him from me
But he left me here and told me there was something he needed to see
I lost my baby to the red sunset...
[ guitar ]
Well that red sunset used to warm our hearts...
Now there's a hundred pretty girls in this town and not one of them shy
They could never turn his head even once no matter how they tried
But I could sleep at night just knowing it was one of them that took him from me
But he left me here and told me there was something he needed to see
I lost my baby to the red sunset...
Now my dreams can all come true
An' now my life can follow through
Suddenly it's all so clear
There's not a thing that I should fear
Who'd have thought that it would start
With the beating of your heart
That the world would stop for me
And show me love like it should be
Holdin' your hand in mine
Catchin' my breath each time
Gazin' up at the stars
Now they don't seem so far
Holdin' your hand in mine
Catchin' my breath each time
Gazin' up at the stars
Now they don't seem so far
Spread the news that I'm alive
'Cause I was born in your blue eyes
Good things were meant for me
Now I've a reason to believe
Yeah, good things were meant for me
One more time before you break my heart, dear
Won't you hold me in your arms? Oh, how I need to hear you tell me
One more time that I'm your one and only
And I'll believe you because I need to one more time
I thought I had the will and the strength to walk away
Instead I'm standing still and trembling when I say
Darling, one more time the last time that I'll ask you
And I'll beg you if I have to one more time
One more time I'm left to dream without you
And I'll always dream about you, oh, how I pray that I'll be with you
One more time we'll face this world together
And forever we'll be one one more time
I've been around from town to town
I've seen a thing or two
I've been across this whole wide world
Looking for someone like you
I was a fool when I let you go
I guess I never knew
That I would spend the rest of my days
Looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
Spent some time with other guys
But that only made me blue
Now I know how hard it is
Looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
I don't want to feel like this
Without you there's just emptiness
I was wrong but now I see
That you're the only one there is for me
So baby won't you please come home
I'll do what you want me to do
And then I'll never have to worry again
About looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
Well, everyday I search in vain
I'll do anything to have you back again
Well, you don't know what I've been through
Looking for someone like you
Well I took those vows to prove my love was strong
And you told me that our love was carved in stone
But that stone was crushed today and the pieces blown away
Though you swore to me that nothing could go wrong
Our love's turned into something to keep us from being alone
Cause I don't miss you when your not here I'm just lonely
Well it's late at night and I'm sittin' here alone
The things I might have done while you were gone
Now I begged you to stay just to keep my thoughts at bay
But you left me here to wonder on my own
Our love's turned into something...
[ guitar ]
Yeah I took those vows to prove my love was strong
And you told me that our love was carved in stone
But that stone was crushed today and the pieces blown away
Though you swore to me that nothing could go wrong
Our love's turned into something...
Cause I don't miss you when your not here I'm just lonely
(Kirsty MacColl)
Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts
They make you feel nothing at all
They'll never remember and they'll never mind
If you're counting the cracks in the wall
They're quick and they're greedy
They never feel guilty
They don't know the meaning of hurt
The boots just go back on the socks that stayed on
The next time they see you they treat you like dirt
The next time they treat you like dirt
Chorus
Now don't come the cowboy with me, Sonny Jim
I know lots of those and you're not one of them
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in and
You won't come the cowboy with me
Don't be too rough on my cold, cold heart
It's all I've got left to me now
I fell out of favour with heaven somewhere
And I'm here for the hell of it now
Some girls play cowboys and some boys play harder to get
But they're got just the same
They smile and say "cheese", they're so eager to please
But they'll never remember your name
The names and the places all change
Chorus
Did somebody tell you I'm lonely as hell?
I didn't expect you to know me so well
If I learned a lesson, it's how to bounce back again
Sometimes I bounce off the wall
And sometimes my head hits the floor
Oh baby you look tired and baby you look beat
Seems like you've been working eight days a week
Baby take a break from all you've been thinking of
Come into my cradle of love
Oh baby let me hold you and rock your cares away
Put aside your troubles at the ending of the day
'Cause when we lie together I fit in you like a glove
Come into my cradle of love
Down in the valley you can lose your name
All your sorrow and your pain
The dark warm waters they can heal you
And make you all brand new again
So baby come on over and lean your head on me
Here in my arms now is where you're meant to be
Oh baby take advantage of all I've got to give
Come into my cradle of love oh
Down in the valley you can lose your name
All your sorrow and your pain
The dark warm waters they can heal you
And make you all brand new again
So baby come on over and lean your head on me
Come into my cradle of love
Baby let me be your cradle of love
Electricity roared but you looked so bored on the line
Nobody knows how it felt to see that cannonball melt in your mind
Calling all cars, one less dog behind bars, one less man in pain
It hurts to see you go but darling don't you know we're so glad you came
You'll stay gone a long, long time
Day by day you'll fly across our minds
Only a fool would want to stick around
When heaven bound
Disconnect the phone, heart from bone, voice from mind
So sad and blue, how'd you do, of course you did just fine
Grab a tail on this big gray whale and do your best to stay brave
In that final hour he's just a beautiful flower that couldn't be saved
You'll stay gone a long, long time
Day by day you'll fly across our minds
Only a fool would want to stick around
When heaven bound
And you'll stay gone a long, long time
Day by day you'll fly across our minds
Only a fool would want to stick around
Take my love and take a chance life will never be the same
I can show you true romance be with me don't be afraid
Don't be afraid of love give your heart what it needs
Follow what you feel you won't get hurt with me
I know most people say romance ends painfully
Leave all your fears behind I'll treat you tenderly
[ steel ]
You would be my morning star each and every day
You would be my rainbow's end come to me and stay
Don't be afraid of love give...
[ guitar ]
The sun is breaking on a new day
You'd be with me if I had my way
I usually take the hard times smiling
But I've been up all night crying
You made a promise meant for keeping
Then I gave up on our love so easy
You said that you felt good for trying
But I've been up all night crying
I guess I can make it on my own
I'll get used to being alone
I'm going face to face with a heartache
And I won't quit till the pain breaks
No there won't be no use denying
That I'll be up all night crying
[ guitar ]
I guess I can make it on my own
I'll get used to being alone
The sun is breaking on a new day...
I, I cry alone
In the night now that you're gone
And I know I'll always be blue
How can I live here in this world without you?
Sun rises and falls
And I don't notice at all
The love that we had has fallen through
How can I live here in this world without you?
When I dream, oh, my dreams are all the same
You hold me in your arms again
But I know they'll never come true
How can I live here in this world without you?
When I dream, oh, my dreams are all the same
You hold me in your arms again
You must know what you've done
You've left me broken and good for no one
Oh, how it hurts to feel like I do?
How can I live here in this world without you?
You talk like that
And I don't know where you're from
But oh how it takes me back
When you talk some
When you're movin' around
You can lose sight of your past
It's way back beyond the last town
And you're movin' too fast
I can hear my father
And his Oklahoma drawl
I hear my grandmother
Oh, I can hear them all
And I hope you talk like that
And I know where I'm from
And oh how it takes me back
When you talk some
If anyone asks of me
Well, I don't have a home
And it's more than likely
I'll always be on my own
Now I hope you talk like that
And I know where I'm from
And oh how it takes me back
When you talk some
Lord, how it takes me back
The fever of our secret has set in
Can't you see their faces read our sin
I'm startin' to get weak in the knee
I'm starting to think they're all after me
Did you hear them whispering our names
Did you hear them say that I'm to blame
My ears are burning as word hits the street
I'm starting to get dizzy from the heat
Shadows of love shadows of love
All we ever do kiss and run
Push comes to shove I want no part of
A love we can't bring into the sun
Listen don't you stand so close to me
Seeing us together's all they need
Our reputation seems to be in doubt
I'm starting to go down for the count
[ guitar ]
Shadows of love shadows of love...
Feels like they're all breathing down my neck
I feel like I could drown here in my sweat
I sure could use some help from above
Oh all I got are shadows of love
Shadows of love shadows of love
Heaven's just a sin away
Oh, oh, just a sin away
I can't wait another day
I think I'm giving in
How I long to hold you tight
Oh, oh be with you tonight
That still don't make it right
'Cause I belong to him
Oh, way down deep inside
I know that it's all wrong
Your eyes keep tempting
But I never was that strong
Devil's got me down
Oh, oh gone and got me now
I can't find him anyhow
I think he's gonna win
Heaven's just a sin away
Oh, oh, just a sin away
Heaven help me, when I say
I think I'm giving in
Oh, way down deep inside
I know that it's all wrong
Your eyes keep tempting
But I never was that strong
Devil's got me down
Oh, oh gone and got me now
I can't find him anyhow
I think he's gonna win
Heaven's just a sin away
Oh, oh, just a sin away
Heaven help me, when I say
I think I'm giving in
I think I'm giving in
I never thought it would end this way
We swore our love would never fade away
Can't understand saying goodbye with a smile on your face
When you know there's nothing can ever take love's place
Can't even seem to put up a fight
Nothing said now is gonna make things right
You've made up your mind come morning you'll be gone
So let me hold you one more time all night long
Give me one more night on the loving side
Give me one more night on the loving side with you
[ guitar ]
Been on the wrong side once or twice
Been on the other side too you know what that's like
Yeah the hardest thing I think I've ever known
On the other side of love all alone
Give me one more night on the loving side
Give me one more night on the loving side with you
Give me one more night on the loving side with you
We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world
I know the words that you say
And the words that you mean
And I remember the days
When you meant everything
We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world
You hold me close in your arms
And I feel the cold
Oh, but you never meant any harm
By the lies that you told
We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world
Yes, the way I can tell is
I know you too well
Came home a little early last night shed not a tear when I turned out the light
No I don't hurt like I used to
Didn't wait for the knock on my door drawer in the room ain't empty anymore
So many got it tougher than I do
But I have not forgotten I have not forgotten I have not forgotten you
Time flies and you just know time to think about lettin' go
Times I even forget to be blue
Big feet to shufle them sands leave no trail and slip right through your hands
Done every little thing I know to do
But I have not forgotten I have not forgotten I have not forgotten you
And I said hail the western bound with it's black tail flying
Lay on the rails and leave me to dream of where your love was mine[ guitar ]
Time flies and you just know time to think about lettin' go
Times I even forget to be blue
But I have not forgotten I have not forgotten I have not forgotten you
No I have not forgotten I have not forgotten I have not forgotten you
Well I didn't come here tonight looking to talk to him
Cause the last thing that I need is to hear those lies again
If he tells me one more time that his love for me will last
I might just start believing him and forget about his past
So I'd better stay out of sight cause my heart's in trouble tonight
Yes I'd better stay out of sight cause my heart's in trouble tonight
Well I have never been known to sidestep trouble before
But if what they're sayin' is true I can't listen to him anymore
He might think he knows me well but I've made up my mind
And when I walk out that door I'll walk out alone this time
So I'd better stay out of sight...
[ guitar - steel ]
No I didn't come here tonight looking to talk to him
Cause the last thing that I need is to hear those lies again
He might think he knows me well but I've made up my mind
And when I walk out that door I'll walk out alone this time
So I'd better stay out of sight...
Oh I must have left some stones unturned or could be quite a few
There's a lot I've overlooked and never knew
There's some things you learn while getting burned
Don't feel good at the time
Playing by your set of rules pretending that you'll never lose
But I know better now yeah I know better now
It just took a while to figure it out
There's so much to take for granted when life is going well
When the tides will turn no one can tell
Some wise men knew that played the blues
That no one has hardly heard
The high cost of fooling yourself not mentioning everyone else
But I know better now yeah I know better now
It just took a while to figure it out
Some mysteries hang on the breeze
[ fiddle ]
And we'll all go to some big hotel where weary hearts can rest
Getting and giving more of the faith and the hope and the love
I know better now yeah I know better now
It just took a while to figure it out
Don't understand why I don't love you
No one could ask for a heart more true
Sometimes I think I was born this blue
I should have known from the start
Now I got a hole in my heart
I seem to be missin' a part
Oh, I pull the pieces together again
But this hole in my heart won't mend
I was in love once long ago
I tried my best not to let it show
He was the kind that'll always know
That's the kind that'll tear you apart
Now I got a hole in my heart
I seem to be missin' a part
Oh, I pull the pieces together again
But this hole in my heart won't mend
I got a hole in my heart
I'd be a fool to let you go tell me something that I don't know
He got the roses and the warm red wine
You got the thorns and these blues of mine
I got a rainbow I'll never find stumbling around in the dark
Now I got a hole in my heart
Seem to be missin' a part
Oh, I pull the pieces together again
But this hole in my heart won't mend
Now I got a hole in my heart
Seem to be missin' a part
Oh, I pull the pieces together again
But this hole in my heart won't mend
Now I got a hole in my heart
I seem to be missin' a part
It's no good to lose heart, it's no good to lose sight
It's no good to have nowhere to go that feels right
You trust me on that one, you sure shouldn't try it
And you sure shouldn't let yourself get right inside it
If I could be you, I'd be happy with that
My regrets would be few and my future not black
Yeah, I could be happy with that
It's no good to get numb, it's no good to get tight
It's no good to wake up and then find you're alright
No, you don't get off easy, well you can't escape it
You wouldn't believe just how long you can take it
If I could be you, I'd be happy with that
My regrets would be few and my future not black
Yeah, I could be happy with that
Sometimes life can be hard when you give love
And no one will take it
If I could be you, I'd be happy with that
My regrets would be few and my future not black
For a minute or two, walk in some other shoes
I might bark at you and get a little loud
Embarrass you, someday in a crowd
Might run you 'round in circles, make you dizzy in the head
I might run you ragged once or twice, forget to get you fed
But hold on tight and let it roll right over you
You should know, I'd never do you no harm
'Cause I got a feelin' for ya
Real deep feelin'
Sometimes I get a little stubborn, feel like you're talkin' to a wall
It don't mean that I don't love you baby, it don't mean nothin' at all
Well, cans are made for kickin', kick it all night and day
When I get stuck on somethin' baby, nothin' can pull me away
Hold on tight, let it roll right over you
You should know, I'd never do you no harm
'Cause I got a feelin' for ya
Real deep feelin'
I hear bells are ringin', it's comin' down the street
I'm in the mood for something sticky, I need my ice cream treat
The road may get rocky and the ride may get rough
I might drive you crazy, you might think, you've had enough
Hold on tight, let it roll right over you
You should know, I'd never do you no harm
'Cause I got a feelin' for ya
Real deep feelin'
A real deep feelin'
Somethin' how I feel about you
Never let no one or nothin' mistreat you baby
Get real this ain't the way we used to feel
What we once earned we have to steal conceal it ain't real
Come on we've been defending for so long
I don't know who we're trying to con it's gone so come on
Enough we're just pretending that it's love
It's a shame I don't know who to blame but I know enough
Get real it's time we both put down our shields
You see we both lost in this deal oh get real
[ guitar ]
Enough we're just pretending...
I could tell you I came by to say hello
But I knew good and well
That you weren't home
Now these lines I write
Will reach you by midnight
Tell you that it's over, anyhow
Sincerely, too late to turn back now
Blue words on white paper find a way
To say what I'm not strong enough to say
If I stay to say goodbye
Someone's bound to cry
And I don't think that
I can stand to hear that sound
Sincerely, too late turn back now
I don't need to sign my name
'Cause you know me by now
And I won't have to take the blame
When tears come falling down
I just ain't got the heart to hang around
Sincerely, too late to turn back now
(Bruce Robison)
What did you think that I've been waiting for
All night
To hear you cry again about her on my shoulder
And what did you think I could say to you
That you ain't heard
Wondering what in the world do I know about love
And what did you think that you've been waiting for
You've had
Long enough of throwin' good love after bad
And what in the world is all this talkin' for
Nobody's
Every changed nobody's mind about what's right
In front of them
When the cause of all your pain is spoken
One more breakin' heart is broken down
And what did you think the night is really for
Except for sleepin'
Or else that empty feelin' creepin' that they don't
Really care at all
When the cause of all your pain is hopin'
One more breakin' heart is broken down
What did you think I've been waiting for
All night
To hear you cry again about her on my shoulder
And what did you think that I could say to you
That you ain't heard
I'm wondering what in the world do I know about love, about love
You might have a happy family, nice house, fine car
You might be successful in real estate
You could even be a football star
You might have a prime time TV show
Seen in every home and bar
But you can't take it with you
You might own a great big factory
Oil wells on sacred land
You might be in line for promotion
With a foolproof retirement plan
You might have your money in copper
Textiles or imports from Japan
But you can't take it with you
You can't take it with you
Though you might pile it up high
It's so much easier for a camel
To pass through a needle's eye
You might have a body of fine proportion and a hungry mind
A handsome face and a flashing wit
Lips that kiss and eyes that shine
There might be a lot all around the block
Long before your starting time
But you can't take it with you
You can't take it with you
Though you might pile it up high
It's so much easier for a camel
To pass through a needle's eye
You might have a great reputation so carefully made
And a set of high ideals
Polished up and so well displayed
You might have a burnin' love inside
So refined, such a special grade
But you can't take it with you
No, you can't take it with you
I didn't have to turn my head whenever you walked in
The only one to let these chills roll down my skin
My heart beats faster I hear your name
I feel my confidence slipping away
Thought I was doing fine bout to get you off my mind
I see you face and then I'm wrapped around your pretty little finger again
It feels like ages since you lay down in my arms
I see no good reason still I'm tangled in your charms
My God you're smiling you catch my eyes
My heart is pounding deep inside
Thought I was doing fine....
[ guitar ]
Ain't gonna let no man go down without a fight
My stalls and walls look better in the bright daylight
My heart beats faster I call your name
I feel my confidence slipping away
Well from now on I'm gonna do what's right
Been thinking this over for many long nights
And on this decision I'm gonna follow through
Whatever way the wind blows I'll be round I'll be round for you
Now the whole round world has gone thoroughly mad
It's so hard trusting in anything said
And a sense of doubt is the only thing that's true
Whatever way the wind blows I'll be round I'll be round for you
Whatever winds of change go tearin' cross this world
I'm always gonna be beside you I'm your girl
Well from now on I'm gonna do what's right...
[ guitar ]
Whatever winds of change go tearin' cross this world
I'm always gonna be beside you I'm your girl
Now the whole round world has gone thoroughly mad...
[ with Kevin Welch ]
Sometimes in the middle of the night I reach for you in my dreams
Then I lay awake till the morning light tired of remembering
The river runs wide here the river runs deep I'd give that river my soul to keep
If I could only finally sleep awhile
That'll be me howlin' in the wind
Every time I come across your tracks again
Tell me how long has it been since I've been free
If you see a fire on the mountain side
All around the places I used to hide
That'll be me that'll be me
[ mandolin ]
You and I we're gypsy born under the same old sign
If my tears for you are a thunderstorm my love is the sweet sunshine
You can't run far enough to ever quite outrun my love
I know who you're thinking of tonight
That'll be me walkin' through your mind
Talkin' to your heart most all the time
Stirring up memories of mine like a gentle breeze
If you hear somebody singin' you this song
Like they could sing it to you all night long
That'll be me that'll be me
[ steel ]
That'll be me howlin' in the wind
Every time I come across your tracks again
Tell me how long has it been since I've been free
If you hear somebody singin' you this song
Like they could sing it to you all night long
That'll be me that'll be me
It's not what I had in mind
Lovin' you now that you're no longer mine
No, it's not what I had in mind
Letting you go and then crossin' that line
I've fallen under some spell an' I wonder
What is the right thing to do
I've been here before and I've never been sure
But I'm still in love with you
Oh, but it's not what I had in mind
Lovin' you now that you're no longer mine
No, it's not what I had in mind
Letting you go and then crossin' that line
Time has weakened my will
And changed how I feel
An' I want you still
Well, I'm fallin' over myself to get closer
To you and I shouldn't want to
But I can't deny how, you make me feel right now
I'm still in love with you
Oh, but it's not what I had in mind
Lovin' you now that you're no longer mine
No, it's not what I had in mind
Letting you go and then crossin' that line
It's not, in mind
Lovin' you now
No, it's not, in mind
If I left you, I wouldn't stay gone so long
If I left you, I'd worry how you got along
But you left me alone here in my misery
That's not something I would do if I left you
If I left you, I wouldn't go out on the town
If I left you, I'd drag my heart along the ground
But you left me alone here in my misery
That's not something I would do if I left you
Your actin' like I never cross your mind
I'm hold up feelin' like I'm losin' mine
If I left you, I'd call you every single day
If I left you, I'd wonder why I went away
But you left me alone here in my misery
The days pass by in slow motion
Starts to rain that I don?t even notice
Everybody wants what they can have
And everybody wants a little more
I wish I had a little more
?Cause I?ve been losin? little pieces of you
Like everything I have is comin? unglued
Knockin? it around in my mind
Searchin? for the times went by
Take me down to the river
Show me things I can remember
I?m in love with a man
He loves me back, quite sure
I wouldn?t change him if I could
But I?ve been losin? little pieces of you
Everything I have is comin? unglued
Knockin? it around in my mind
Searchin? for the times went by
I?ve been losin? little pieces of you
Everything I have is comin? unglued
Turn around one day and you were gone
If I ran so far that my life can't follow me
Would it keep the world from up and swallowin' me?
Well, there's so much to weigh me down that I can hardly breathe
And I don't want to think about it
But I don't want this pain to last
And I, I, I, well I'm fadin' fast
If I didn't look back and I changed my name
Would I find my new life exactly the same?
I'm lookin' at an empty future that I already blame
And I don't want to think about it
But I don't want this pain to last
And I, I, I, well I'm fadin' fast
I've put it all behind me
Just to have it one day find me
And now I'm just this far from gone, hey
And so I'm leavin' here on every cent
That I could borrow
Lord only knows just where I'll be tomorrow
And I don't want to think about it
But I don't want this pain to last
And I, I, I, well I'm fadin'
I don't want to think about it
But I don't want this pain to last
And I, I, I, well I'm fadin' fast
(John Hiatt)
I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anyone
That's how you learn, you just get burned
But, we don't have to feel like dirt anymore
Though love's not earned baby, it's our turn
We were always looking for true north
With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course
I left the motor running
Now, if you're feeling down and out
Chorus
Come on baby, drive south
With the one you love
Come on baby, drive south
With the one you love
I'm not talkin' 'bout retreatin', not this girl
Gonna take our stand, in this Chevy van
Windows open on the rest of the world
Holdin' hands on the way to Dixieland
We've been tryin' to turn our lives around
Since we were little kids
It's been wearin' us down
Don't turn away now, darlin'
Let's fire it up and wind it out
Chorus
I heard your mama callin', I think she was stallin'
Don't know who she was talkin' to baby, me and you
We could go down with a smile on
I ain't gonna pack my nylons,
Got to leave our legs showin'
It gets hot where we're goin'
We were always looking for true north
With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course
I left the motor running
Now, if you're feeling down and out
Redemption is all I really need
'Cause I've been living like a liar and a thief
They say that you spend your lifetime burning
But I spend mine, just turning and turning
And oh, will it shine through, all that I've been waiting for
Living in the real time, it's been getting to me
Oh yeah, will it shine through, all that I've been waiting for
Taking its sweet time in getting to me
Love is the answer, atleast for some
But love is the devil when you have none
So empty your pockets and lay down your dimes
It costs what you've got and you pay every time
And oh, will it shine through, all that I've been waiting for
Living in the real time, it's been getting to me
Oh yeah, will it shine through, all that I've been waiting for
Taking its sweet time in getting to me
So, let go your mind when you're feeling it slip
Yeah, and let go your heart when you're feeling it dip
Sometimes, there's not much a poor soul can do
But dream of the life you've got coming to you
And oh, when it shines through, all that I've been waiting for
Living in the real time, it's been getting to me
Oh, oh, when it shines through, all that I've been waiting for
It's taking its sweet time in getting to me
Hey, taking its sweet time
(Marcia Ball)
Now we're down to saying our goodbyes
And you still don't see the truth
All I did was try to make life better for you
But a woman just gets tired of being used
So find another fool to love you
The world is full of girls like me
Find a fool to take care of you
That's a girl I'd like to see
Who'll be the one when all is said and done
I know you
You'll find another fool
Now you say you want to talk it over
Maybe I will change my mind
But you never heard a word I ever told you
And it's not my mind that needs to change this time
So find another fool to love you
The world is full of girls like me
Find a fool to take care of you
That's a girl I'd like to see
You'll be fine but you won't know what she needs
And I know you
You'll find another fool
You think hearts are made to be broken
Like your promises so easily broken
Too many good things have fallen at your feet
I wonder who'll be the fool after me
Go find another fool to love you
The world is full of girls like me
Find a fool to take care of you
That's a girl I'd like to see
I hope she doesn't mind
When you don't come home at night
Not all the time
Maybe once in a while
You tell her that you tried
But you can't look her in the eye
And I know you
I want my mind to pull me through
'Cause up until now that's been hard to do
How could I know, yeah, how could I know
That it'd be easy
I want my heart to stand alone
And to be the one that's made of stone
But how could I know, yeah, how could I know
That it'd be easy, easy as falling apart
Woke from the sweetest dream
And brought to the floor
And robbed of the only thing
That I'm living for
And I want the sun to shine to shine on me
To show me the way and set me free
How could I know, oh, how could I know
That it'd be easy, easy as falling apart
Woke from the sweetest dream
And brought to the floor
And robbed of the only thing
That I'm living for
The farther I fall, the more I know
That I'm gonna have to let you go
But how could I know, oh, how could I know
That it'd be easy, easy, easy as falling apart
It's too late to change your mind
I can see you're leavin' for good this time
I know I don't stand a chance
At stoppin' you from leavin' me behind
But let me tell you
I won't stand in your way
Oh babe, let me tell you
There's somethin' I got to say, hey
Baby, take a piece of my heart
Don't just throw it away
You're gonna miss my lovin'
Save it for a rainy day
I can't stop you from leavin'
I can't make you stay
Baby, take a piece of my heart
Save it for a rainy day
Now don't you worry about me
I'll make it through this dark and lonely night
I don't want your sympathy
And your apology don't make things right
But let me tell you
I won't stand in your way
Oh babe, let me tell you
There's somethin' I got to say, hey
Baby, take a piece of my heart
Don't just throw it away
You're gonna miss my lovin'
Save it for a rainy day
I can't stop you from leavin'
I can't make you stay
Baby, take a piece of my heart
Save it for a rainy day
Baby, take a piece of my heart
Don't just throw it away
You're gonna miss my lovin'
Save it for a rainy day
I can't stop you from leavin'
I can't make you stay
Baby, take a piece of my heart
Save it for a rainy day
