Alone at a corner table,
She was watching me watching her. I was singin' about an old flame burning, She was hanging on to every word. I was pouring out my feelings, She was pouring out the wine. Through the smoke and the beer, It was perfectly clear, That we were touching each others minds. It was love ten feet away. Imagine her in my arms, with that look on her face. Lying somewhere in some shadowy place. It was love just ten feet away. I just knew my closing song would do it, I knew that I was heaven bound. I could tell she was moved, but before I was through. This stranger walked up and set down. He was trying his best to impress her, But she never took her eyes off me. When he got up and left, I said to myself... Woh-o-woh what a night this will be. It was love ten feet away. Imagine her in my arms, with that look on her face. Lying somewhere in some shadowy place. It was love just ten feet away. It was love ten feet away. Imagine her in my arms, with that look on her face. Lying somewhere in some shadowy place. It was love just ten feet away. |

I can't stand to see
A good man go to waste One who never combs his hair Or shaves his face A man who leans on wine Over love that's told a lie Oh, it tears me up to see A grown man cry So I never go around mirrors I can't stand to see me Without you by my side No, I never go around mirrors Because I gotta heartache to hide I can't stand to be Where heartaches hang around It's so easy for the blues to get me down To see a grown man crawl Is more than I can stand And I look into the eyes of half a man So I don't go around mirrors I can't stand to see Me without you by my side No, I never go around mirrors Because I gotta heartache to hide And it tears me up to see A grown man cry |

Well you can call out the sheriff and the highway patrol
Cause there's a fool on the road careenin' out of control Hard liquor fast women I just can't let 'em be Lord I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me Well I keep my motor runnin' got my beer on the ice And my idea of heaven is a pair of dice Seven come on eight set this poor boy free Lord I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me Bright lights Saturday night I had a couple and I'm feeling alright My cupcake she can wiggle and shake spend more money than anybody make So give me a shot of that octane juice You know where ain't no cure for the honky tonk blues And if they come up with somethin' I'll develop an immunity And I wish hard livin' didn't come easy for me [ guitar ] Out on the town just a foolin' around Hey I got my mind on the lost and found Step up no need to be shy All right pretty women you got the ticket to ride When my tires are flat and I'm out of gas I promise myself I'll let the next one pass Lord I wish that a promise didn't break so easily And I wish hard livin' didn't come easy for me Hey I wish hard livin' didn't come easy for me |

I know you loved him, a long time ago
Even now in my arms, you still want him I know But darling this time, your memories die When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes [Chorus] Don't close your eyes, let it be me Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy Darling just once, let yesterday go And you'll find more love than you'll ever know Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Maybe I've, been a fool, holding on all this time Lying here in your arms, knowing he's in your mind But I keep hoping someday, that you'll see the light Let it be tonight and don't close your eyes [Chorus: Repeat x2] Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight, And don't close your eyes |

It's amazing
how you can speak right to my heart Without saying a word you can light up the dark Try as may I can't never explain what I hear when you don't say a thing. *The smile on your face Let's me know that you need me There is a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me A touch of your hands says you'll catch me wherever i fall you say it best when you say nothing at all All day long I can hear people talking out loud but when you hold me near you drown out the crowd Try as may they can't never define what is being said between your heart and mine *repeat |

I'm no stranger to the rain
I'm a friend of thunder Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me I've fought with the devil Got down on his level But I never gave in, so he gave up on me I'm no stranger to the rain I can spot bad weather And I'm good at finding shelter in a downpour I've been sacrificed by brothers Crucified by lovers But through it all I withstood the pain I'm no stranger to the rain But when I get that foggy feeling When I'm feeling down If I don't keep my head up, I may drown But it's hard to keep believing I'll even come out even While the rain beats your hope in the ground And tonight it's really coming down I'm no stranger to the rain But there'll always be tomorrow And I'll beg, steal, or borrow a little sunshine And I'll put this cloud behind me That's how the 'man' designed me To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane I'm no stranger to the rain Oh, no, I'm no stranger to the rain I'm no stranger to the rain I'm a friend of thunder Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me But I'll put this cloud behind me That's how the 'man' designed me To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane I'm no stranger to the rain Oh, no, I'm no stranger to the rain |

If you drive around
Back in our old hometown I wonder do you think of me When you drive by a school Do you remember two fools I wonder do you think of me And remember the park Where you struck the spark To a fire that's still burning Oh, in my heart That old graduation day You just drifted away I wonder do you think of me And remember those games Those cold football games I was your hero Though I seldom played Back then could you see What our future would be I wonder do you think of me And the classes we missed Caused by a kiss I can tell you that I've never Felt like that since I don't know if you would But I'd go back if I could I wonder do you think of me I still love you Do you think of me |
