You gave him some good years
Now you'd like them back Mistakes become clearer After the fact Now when you pick up the pieces But you can't make them fit Don't waste all your time Trying to make sense of it Just hurry back To the land of the living Things have changed Since you've been gone The world is turning In the land of the living Take a deep breath Life goes on...life goes on Come down from that dark cloud What's done is done Don't you go down believing You're the only one That ever felt heartache Turn to regret We've all got something We'd like to forget...that's right Just hurry back To the land of the living Things have changed Since you've been gone The world is turning In the land of the living Take a deep breath Life goes on...life goes on Lean on my shoulder And whisper your tears We all need someone To echo our fears Just hurry back To the land of the living Things have changed Since you've been gone The world is turning In the land of the living Take a deep breath Life goes on...life goes on In the land of the living The world is turning Life goes one In the land of the living |

She'll turn thirty-four this weekend
She'll go out with her girlfriends They'll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on There'll be guys and there'll be come ons She'll probably get hit on But she thinks all the good ones are gone She's got friends down at the office And she can't help but notice That when the day is over How they all hurry home Every day there's guys she works with And even some she flirts with But it seems like all the good ones are gone And her mama called this mornin' Said I'm worried about my baby I wish you had a family of your own She said mom it's not that easy You make it sound so simple But you can't take the first man that comes along Once she had someone who loved her Back when she was younger Now she wonders if she held out A little bit too long Back then there were so many Now there just aren't any It seems like all the good ones are gone And her mama called this mornin' Said I'm worried about my baby I wish you had a family of your own She said mom it's not that easy You make it sound so simple But you can't take the first man that comes along She'll turn thirty-four this weekend She'll go out with her girlfriends They'll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on |

We tried and we tried but it's over
Guess I didn't fit the image in your mind Now you tell me to find another lover But baby, aren't you gettin' outta line Don't tell me what to do You've already said we are through I'm a page that you have turned I'm no longer your concern So don't tell me what to do I'll love you forever if I want to do You're no longer in charge of my thinkin' You're already in love with someone else So if I'm into all night honky tonkin' Well I'm a big girl, I can take care of myself Don't tell me what to do You've already said we are through I'm a page that you have turned I'm no longer your concern So don't tell me what to do I'll love you forever if I want to do |

Lookin' at you through a misty moonlight
Katydid sing like a symphony Porch swing swayin' like a Tennessee lullaby Melody blowing through the willow tree Chorus: What was I supposed to do Standing there lookin' at you A lonely boy far from home Maybe it was Memphis Maybe it was Southern summer nights Maybe it was you maybe it was me But it sure felt right Read about you in a Faulkner novel Met you once in a Williams play Heard about you in a country love song Summer night beauty took my breath away Chorus Every night now since I've been back home I lie awake drifting in my memory I think about you on your momma's front porch swing Talking that way so soft to me Chorus Maybe it was Memphis Maybe it was Southern summer nights Maybe it was Memphis Maybe it was Southern summer nights Chorus |

Love you're gettin' lazy
You're forgettin' to give me Sweet sugar words that I want to hear You've been neglectin' me You know jealousy, it is bitter as a green spring berry You're like fruit from a fickle vine You turn sweet in the nick of time Love, you only come alive when you're losin' me And it's a childish game I've got to shake you up just to wake you up To make you love me Chorus: I'll shake the sugar tree Till I feel your love falling All around me You've got to tend to what you've planted And if you take my love for granted baby I'll shake the sugar tree Another night and you're sleepin' I'm awake and I'm dreamin' Oh honey 'bout the way you used to be A little time's gone by Now do you think that I'm content With the cookin' and the payin' of the rent No, I want to know if your love's all spent Chorus I've got to raise some commotion Before you show me Some real emotion |

Mary was married with children
Had the perfect suburban life Til her husband came clean with the help of Jim Beam And confessed all his sins in one night Said he'd fallen in love with a barmaid Said she made him feel reckless and young And when he got through, what else could she do She just let that pony run Chorus: You do what you gotta do You know what you know You hang on til you can't hang on And then you learn to let go You get what you want sometimes But when it's all said and done You do what you gotta do And then you let that pony run Mary moved to West Virginia After the shock wore off She got a divorce and a chestnut horse And a barn with an old hayloft And sometimes she rides by the river Says it makes her feel reckless and young She closes her eyes and she holds on tight And she lets that pony run Chorus |

Well I said he had a lot of potential
He was only misunderstood You know he really didn't mean to treat me so bad You know he wanted to be good And I swore one day I would tame him Even though he loved to run hog wild Just call me Cleopatra everybody Cause I'm the Queen of Denial Well now I knew he didn't have any money Yeah that's why he couldn't buy me a ring Oh and just because he bought himself a brand new pick-up truck Really didn't prove anything Yeah he never had to say he loved me I could see it every time he smiled Just call me Cleopatra everybody Cause I'm the Queen of Denial Chorus: Oh Queen of Denial Buyin' all his alibis Queen of Denial Floatin' down a river of lies Well I'm not gonna jump to conclusions Or throw away this perfect romance Oh even though I caught him dancin' last night With a girl in leapord skin pants Yeah, he's probably stuck in traffic And he'll be here in a little while Just call me Cleopatra everybody Cause I'm the Queen of Denial Chorus |

I ain't even gonna ask you
I can read you like a book Girl, if I ever saw one that's An I can't believe I did that look You look like something that the cat drug in So I won't kick you while you're down Just let me tell you friend to friend 'Bout a block I've been around Did you really think last night would last forever? Did you really think that guy hung the moon? Right now you hate yourself 'cause you knew better But there's no use crying over spilled perfume There's a big difference between lonely And lonely for way too long And I knew when he made his move You weren't feeling all that strong So I bit my tongue 'cause I saw it coming As you danced so close to him It's two steps forward and three steps back When a heart is on the mend Did you really think last night would last forever? Did you really think that guy hung the moon? Right now you hate yourself 'cause you knew better But there's no use crying over spilled perfume You fell in a moment of weakness Well, you just got to pull yourself back up Dry your morning after tears 'Cause what's done is done Did you really think last night would last forever? Did you really think that guy hung the moon? Right now you hate yourself 'cause you knew better But there's no use crying over spilled perfume No use crying over No use crying over No use crying over spilled perfume |

I can feel a new expression on my face
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place I can hear the guitars playin' lovely tunes Every time that you walk in the room I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant I feel a summer's night with a magic moon Every time that you walk in the room Baby it's a dream come true Standin' right along side of you Wish I could show you how much I care But I only have the nerve to stare I can feel a something pounding in my brain Just any time that someone speaks your name Trumpets sound I hear thunder boom Every time that you walk in the room |

There's room at my table, why don't you pull up a seat?
The music's inviting but I'm staying off of my feet The floor's getting crowded, but I don't want to take part I bet you can guess it's got something to do with my heart [Chorus:] I could sure use your company now But don't be mistaking my smile I'm only in between dances Sitting it out for a while The partners are chosen, look at them Waltzing away The tempo gets slower, closer and closer They sway I've had my moments when I could get lost in The sound But when the song ended the one in my arms Let me down [Chorus] I could sure use your company now But don't be mistaking my smile I'm only in between dances Sitting it out for a while Have you been in my shoes? I search your eyes for signs Will you remain, remember my name After it's closing time [Chorus] I could sure use your company now But don't be mistaking my smile I'm only in between dances Sitting it out for a while I'm only in between dances Sitting it out for a while |

If you're coming with me you need
nerves of steel 'Cause I take corners on two wheels It's a never-ending circus ride The faint of heart need not apply Chorus: Mi vida loca over and over Destiny turns on a dime I go where the wind blows You can't tame a wild rose Welcome to my crazy life Sweetheart before this night is through I could fall in love with you Come dancing on the edge with me Let my passion set you free Chorus Here in the firelight I see your tattoo Mi vida loco, so you're crazy too Chorus We'll go where the wind blows And I'll be a wild rose Welcome to my crazy life |

I was supposed to have some games
I'd love to play with you If you thought that I was leaving here Can I find a way inside? Try to call it just an absence of faith But I feel justified You can't stare through this There's nothing left in my heart Bye for now, just too long There's no end in sight What am I for to be hurt more? I just don't like it here with yourself I can't like you Want to burn you I wish you were dead 'Cos if it's hard you want out, it's no fun Got left with everything Behind your smile forget That I was left with everything Never the same to me Never the same to me Never the same to me Never the same It's never the same Once you played up to the end Stop the noise Get nowhere with your current state of mind I even wonder why you're here? Please stay at home Killing my laughter Hurting my insides You are played What am I here for to be hurt more? I just don't like it here with yourself I can't like you Want to burn you I wish you were dead 'Cos if it's hard you want out, it's no fun Got left with everything Behind your smile forget That I was left with everything Never the same to me Never the same to me Never the same to me Never the same If you thought that I was leaving here Can I find a way inside? Try to call it just an absence of faith But I feel justified If it's hard you want out It's no fun got left with everything Behind your smile forget That I was left with everything Never the same to me Never the same to me Never the same to me Never the same It's how I feel, yeah It's how I'm made, yeah |
