Ooh yeah

I love the way you wear those worn out blue jeans
Walkin' all around in the big sunshine
Baby let me believe that you're perfect
At least for a little while

You don't have to tell me what you're thinkin'
You can keep all that to yourself
Baby we got such a good thing going
Don't show me that you're someone else

{Chorus}
Cause I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely
Unless there's something I've missed I'm acting as if

We don't have to have that conversation
Baby don't ya think it's goin' fine
We don't need to send out invitations
To tell the world that you're mine

{Chorus}
Cause I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me


I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely
Unless there's something I've missed I'm acting as if

As if your sweet kiss is never gonna fade away
And the way you look at me will never change

Cause I love the way you wear those worn out blue jeans,
Walkin' all around in the big sunshine

Cause I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely

I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely

Unless there's something I've missed
Unless there's something I've missed
I'm acting as if

Oooh yeah

Oh I'm acting as if

I've been tellin' my dreams to the scarecrow
About the places that I'd like to see
I say 'friend, do you think I'll ever get there?'
Aww, but he just stands there smilin' back at me

So I confess my sins to the preacher
About the love I'd been prayin' to find
Is there a brown-eyed boy in my future, yeah
He says 'girl, you got nothin' but time.'

[Chorus]
(But) (Oh) (So) how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know
That you were born, (you were born, yeah), you were born to fly


My daddy he is grounded like the oak tree
My momma she is as steady as the sun
Oh, you know I love my folks, but I keep starin' down the road,
Just lookin' for my one chance to run

Hey, 'cause I will soar away like the blackbird
I will blow in the wind like a seed
I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams
And I will grow up where I want, wild and free

[Chorus]

Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I've found all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more

Looking in your eyes
Seeing all I need
Everything you are is everything in me
These are the moments
I know heaven must exist
These are the moments
I know all I need is this
I've found all I've waited for, yeah
And I could not ask for more

I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
And every prayer has been answered
Every dream I've had's come true
Yeah, right here in this moment
Is right where I'm meant to be
Here with you here with me
Yeah

These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I've found all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more

I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
And every prayer has been answered
Every dream I've had's come true
Yeah, right here in this moment
Is right where I'm meant to be
Oh, here with you here with me
No, I could not ask for more
Than this love you gave me
Cause it's all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
No, yeah
No, I could not ask for more

If you don't take me to Paris on a lover's getaway, it's alright, it's alright
If I'd rather wear your t-shirt than a sexy negligee, it's alright, It's alright
Every dinner doesn't have to be candlelit
It's kinda nice to know that it

Doesn't have to be perfect
Maybe every little piece of the puzzle doesn't always fit perfectly
Love can be rough around the edges, tattered at the seams
Honey, if it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me

If your mother doesn't like the way I treat her baby boy, it's alright, it's alright
If, in every wedding picture, my daddy looks annoyed, it's alright, it's alright
Don't you know that all the fairy tales tell a lie
Real love and real life

Doesn't have to be perfect
Maybe every little piece of the puzzle doesn't always fit perfectly
Love can be rough around the edges, tattered at the seams
Honey, if it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me

Oh, you don't mind if I show up late for everything
When you lose your cool, it's kinda cute to me
Hey, ain't it nice to know that we

Don't have to be perfect
Maybe every little piece of the puzzle doesn't always fit perfectly
Love can be rough around the edges, tattered at the seams
Honey, if it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me

Oh, you're good enough for me, uh huh
Yeah, you're good enough for me
Oh, you're good enough for me

You say your everyday
Is a bad dream that keeps repeatin'
Baby you should have thought about that
When you were cheatin'

How do you like that furnished room
The bed the chair the table
The TV picture comes and goes
Too bad you don't have cable
How do you like that paper plate
And those pork and beans you're eating
Maybe you should have thought about that
When you were cheatin'

How do you like that beater car
I think it's fair we traded
Your pickup truck is running fine
It's a cozy ride for dating
Yes I've been out a time or two
And found the comfort I've been needing
Maybe you should have thought about that
When you were cheatin'

You made your bed
And you're out of mine
You lie awake
And I sleep just fine
You've done your sowin'
Now you can do the reapin'
Maybe you should have thought about that
When you were cheatin'

Now what became of whatshername
After she spent all your money
Did she leave you just like you left me
Sometimes life is funny
Yes I'll be glad to take you back
Just as soon as I stop breathing
Maybe you should have thought about that

Oh maybe you should have thought about that
Maybe you should have thought about that

When you were cheatin'
When you were cheatin'

She was in the back yard
Say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up
A white pick-up truck
Her folks shoulda seen it comin'
It was only just a matter of time
Plenty old enough
And you can't stop love
She stuck a note on the screen door
Sorry but I got to go
And that was all she wrote
Her Mama's heart was broke
And that was all she wrote
And so the story goes

Now her Daddy's in the kitchen
Starin' out the window
Scratchin' and a rackin' his brains
How can eighteen years just up and walk away
Our little pony tailed girl
Growed up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket
And the clothes hangin' out on the line

Now don't you wonder what the preacher's
Gonna preach about Sunday morn
Nothing quite like this
Has happened here before
Well he must of been looker
A smooth talkin' son of a gun
For such a grounded girl
To just up and run
Of course you can't fence time
And you can't stop love

Now all the biddies in the beauty shop
Gossip goin' non-stop
Sippin' on pink lemonade
How could eighteen years just up and walk away
Our little pony tailed girl
Growed up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket
And the clothes hangin' out on the line

Yee Hoo

She's got her pretty little bare feet
Hangin' out the window
And they're headed up to Vegas tonight
How could 18 years just up and walk away
Our little pony tailed girl
Growed up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket
And the clothes hangin' out on the line
She left the suds in the bucket
And the clothes hangin' out on the line

She was in the backyard
Say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up
A white pick-up truck
Plenty old enough
And you can't stop love
And no you can't fence time
And you can't stop love

There I was
Ten years old
Waitin' in my room for him
To come home
And I just knew
He'd be so mad
Though I begged my mother not to, she told my dad
There was no denying I let him down
But instead of being angry
He put his arms around me and said...

[Chorus]
In the sunlight or the rain
Brightest nights or darkest days
I'll always feel the same way
Whatever road you may be on
Know you're never too far gone
My love is there wherever you may be
Just remember that you'll always be my baby

There I was
Twenty-one
Oh, I was so ashamed
Of what I'd done
On a country road
Parked one night
Oh, it started out so innocent
Crossed the line
There was no denying
I let God down
But instead of being angry
He let his love surround me and I heard...

[Chorus]

There he is
My little man
I'm sure he'll get in trouble every now and then
And I pray to God that when he does
I'll be just as understanding as my father was
'Cause the last thing that I wanna do is let him down
So instead of being angry, I'm gonna throw my arms around him

And I'll say in the sunlight or the rain
Brightest nights or darkest days
I'll always feel the same way
Whatever road you may be on
Know you're never too far gone
My love is there wherever you may be
Just remember that you'll always be my baby

Be my baby

Back when I was young
Couldn't wait to grow up
Get away and get out on my own
And looking back now
Ain't it funny how
I've been trying to get back home, yeah

When my low self esteem
Needs a man loving me
And I find me a perfect catch
Then I see my friends
Having wild weekends
Then I don't want to get quite so attached
Just as soon as I get what I want
I get unsatisfied
Good is good but could be better

I keep looking, I keep looking for
I keep looking for something more
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door
I keep looking
Looking for something more

Well, the straight haired girls
They all want curls
And the brunettes want to be blonde
It's your typical thing
You got ying you want yang
It just goes on and on
They say, hey, it's only human
To never be satisfied
Well I guess that I'm as human as the next one

Oh, I keep looking
I keep looking for
I keep looking for something more
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door
Yeah, I keep looking
Looking for something more

Just as soon as I get what I want
I get unsatisfied
Hey, good is good but could be better

I keep looking
I keep looking for
I keep looking for something more
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door
I keep looking
Looking for something more
Oh, looking for something more

<< No Place That Far >>
--- Sara Evans

(Sara Evans & Vince Gill)
(Sara Evans/Tom Shapiro/Tony Martin)

I can't imagine, any greater fear
Then waking up, without you here,
And though the sun, will still shine on,
My whole world, would all be gone,
But not for long,

If I had to run, if I had to crawl
If I had to swim a hundred rivers, just to climb a thousand walls,
Always know that I will find a way, to get to where you are,
There's no place that far

It wouldn't matter why we're apart,
Lonely minds or two stubborn hearts
Nothing short of God above
Could turn me away from your love
I need you that much

If I had to run, if I had to crawl
If I had to swim a hundred rivers, just to climb a thousand walls,
Always know that I will find a way, to get to where you are,
There's no place that far

If I had to run, if I had to crawl
If I had to swim a hundred rivers, just to climb a thousand walls,
Always know that I will find a way, to get to where you are,
There's no place that far

Baby there's no place that far

I'm gonna do it darlin'...
I could waste time tryin' the figure it out,
But I'm jumpin' in anyhow.
I've never been this far;
Didn't know love could run so deep...
Didn't know I'd lose this much sleep.

Holdin' you close, chasin' that moon.
Spendin' all night,
Lovin' just who you are...
Sparks flyin' in the dark.
Shootin' out lights, runnin' down dreams,
Figurin' out what love really means...
Baby, givin' you my heart,
Is a real fine place to start.

Somethin' is goin' on,
I can't explain but sure can touch...
It's callin' both of us.
Stronger than any fear or doubt,
It's changin' everything I see...
It's changin' you, it's changin' me.

Holdin' you close, chasin' that moon.
Spendin' all night,
Lovin' just who you are...
Sparks flyin' in the dark.
Shootin' down lights, runnin' down dreams,
Figurin' out what love really means...
Baby, givin' you my heart,
Is a real fine place to start.

Right here, right now's the perfect spot, the perfect time.
The perfect moment when your skin is next to mine.

<i>[Instrumental break]</i>

Yeah, yeah...
Holdin' you close, (Holdin' you close.)
Chasin' that moon. (Chasin' that moon.)
Spendin' all night,
Lovin' just who you are...
Sparks flyin' in the dark.
Shootin' out lights, (Shootin' down lights.)
Runnin' down dreams, (Runnin' down dreams.)
Figurin' out just what love really means...
Baby, givin' you my heart's a real fine place,
Real fine place to start.
Oh yeah.
Oh, oh, oh.

I can feel you watchin', I can feel your eyes on me
I can hear you whisper and I just get so weak
But I'm a little bit scared, it's been a long time
Since I let my guard down and let someone inside
You don't need to wonder, 'cause tonight you'll get it all

Chorus
When the night closes in, I'm gonna pull you so close
Hold you so tight, gonna let it all go
And you can do what you want, you can take me right here
'Cause I knew from the start I was gonna love you with all my heart<<

You take my hand now, and I'm ready to begin
Though it makes me crazy when your fingers touch my skin
And I know what you want and you know what I need
There's no reason to pretend that we don't know what this means

>>repeat chorus

I'm gonna rock you, baby
And take away your maybe
And you can rest here in these open arms

>>repeat chorus

I was gonna love you with all my heart
I was gonna love you with all my heart

Sometimes I wish I could run
Home to mama's lovin' arms
In the springtime when the weather's fine

Sittin' with her on the porch
Glass of tea and nothin' more
Than her smile, for just a little while

When I don't know where to go
I think of home and how she used to sing to me
She sang

?Que Sera, Sera? life goes on
Whatever's meant to be will always be
And baby, what don't kill you will make you strong
Just love the journey that you?re on
In all you do, I'll pray for you

Wild horses and fairy tales
Sometimes turn into somethin' else
That you never saw comin' at you at all

So I guess I'm callin' just because
He wasn?t who I thought he was
And I can't believe he stopped lovin' me

So when I'm feelin' all alone
I think of home and how you used to sing to me

?Que Sera, Sera? life goes on
Whatever's meant to be will always be
And baby, what don't kill you will make you strong
Just love the journey that you?re on
In all you do, I'll pray for you

I got babies of my own
And I'm the one they're countin' on
To be here for every little tear, and I'll sing

?Que Sera, Sera? life goes on
Whatever's meant to be will always be
And baby, what don't kill you will make you strong
Just love the journey that you?re on
In all you do, I'll pray for you
In all you do, I'll pray for you

She gets up every mornin' while everyone's in bed
Starts the coffee, makes the breakfast for all those sleepy-heads
Yeah, yeah, some things never change

He comes in all dressed for work sayin', "Baby, I love you"
Gotta go, even though it's not what he wants to do
But he does it, some things never change

In a world that keeps turnin' and movin' so fast
When you can't hold on to nothin' and nothin' seems to last
It's so good to know that love still remains
Ain't you glad that some things never change?

Three o'clock every afternoon waitin' by the door
Sees her babies are runnin' off the bus, she couldn't love 'em any more
Yeah, yeah, oh, some things never change

Like when I'm lyin' next to you, well, I remember when
Your kisses made me crazy so beautiful back then
And I still feel the same, yeah, some things never change

In a world that keeps turnin' and movin' so fast
When you can't hold on to nothin' and nothin' seems to last
It's so good to know that love still remains
Ain't you glad that some things never change?

Yeah, same as the sun keeps risin'
Yeah, every day someone is findin' love
Oh yeah

In a world that keeps turnin' and movin' so fast
When you can't hold on to nothin' and nothin' seems to last
It's so good to know that love still remains

Oh, when the world that keeps turnin' and movin' so fast
When you can't hold on to nothin' and nothin' seems to last
And it's sure good to know that love still remains
Oh, ain't you glad that some things never change? Yeah
Oh, ain't you glad that some things never change?
Ooh, oh, some things never change
