(Mac McAnally)
Well the daylight drags me out of bed And the nightlife drags me home In the meantime I drag round half dead Restin up for later on Well I wrack my brain to easy my mind But I always edge my bet On the tail of every trend I find But I don't feel nothin' yet Lookin' for the good life It's just about to make me loose my mind Lookin' for the good life It's keepin me miserable all the time As a child a dream is all it takes To get you through the night Now it costs me every dime I make Just to say I feel alright Lookin' for the good life It's just about to make me loose my mind Lookin' for the good life It's keepin me miserable all the time Well I looked in the books and the movies And I sat through the tv shows Got the Vcr and the ja'causezi And I statr at the speakers on the stereo And my conscience just keeps raging Until I wish it was back down low. Lookin' for the good life It's just about to make me loose my mind Lookin' for the good life It's keepin me miserable all the time |

Steam from a summer rain drop
rising off the blacktop I wipe the sweat from my brow Steam from my radiator I'm late and getting later should be at your place by now Bank sign says a hundred and two but that ain't nothin' when I'm next to you There's fire in your fingertips flames in your touch desire in your burnin' lips I can't get enough Today was a scorcher but I'll go you one better tonite when we get together we're going to make steam I dream of you there on my front steps sunnin in that short dress hotter than the the Texas heat Seems I'm never gonna get there traffic's going no where but when I feel you next to me girl the things that you know to do just makes my heat index go through the roof There's fire in your fingertips flames in your touch desire in your burnin' lips I can't get enough |

I'm cuttin' off the telephone
You unplug the TV At the rate life's passin' us by We can't take the time to breathe I know you can't turn time around But maybe there's a way to slow it down Sippin' iced tea from a backporch swing Layin' by a river as the wold runs by Makin' sweet love while the mockingbird sings We can try, puttin' the brakes on time When did we last have a heart to heart talk? Over a glass of wine Or stop and watch the grass grow Or smell a honeysuckle vine We can't put the sand back in the hourglass But we can hold each other, baby And make this weekend last Sippin' iced tea from a backporch swing Layin' by a river as the wold runs by Makin' sweet love while the mockingbird sings You and I puttin' the brakes on time Puttin' the brakes on time, yeah, yeah, yeah We've been sippin' iced tea from the backporch swing Lay down by the river as the world runs by Make sweet love while the mockingbird sings Can't stop the clock but we can't sure enough try To put the brakes, put the brakes on time To put the brakes, put the brakes on time We can slow it down, baby And put the brakes on time We can slow it down, baby And put the brakes on time, yeah |

I woke up missing you this morning
After running into you last night The way you kiss me like a friend is so heartwarming But baby, when we meet again If you really want to be my friend [Chorus] Tell me that you're never ever coming back When you're out on the town stop looking like that Tear out your telephone jack in case I get the urge to call Got my work cut out to gt you out of my heart Tears to stop, a new life to start Put my world against the wall I could use your help, I can't do it all Try to make myself believe it's over But I don't believe I'm equal to the task I got a million memories to go And I'm gettin' nowhere Oh, and help is hard to find So if you could be so kind [Chorus] Got my work cut out to gt you out of my heart Tears to stop, a new life to start Put my world against the wall I could use your help, I can't do it all |

Don't think I'm sorry's
What we need to say Don't think forgiveness Is why we're here today Guilty, we're both guilty Let's walk through that door A second chance is what I'm talking about Let's take the hurt And turn it inside out Lay it on me baby 'Til I can't take any more No mercy, show me no mercy Love me all night long and don't hurry Take it slow and easy No mercy tonight Hold me baby You know I've been hurtin' Love this love back to life 'Cause it's worth it Love me strong, baby Show me no mercy tonight Remember when we thought That being apart Would be the best thing For both our hearts It's a prison out there When you're living alone, for sure Now I know how much I really missed you No more games, just wanna be with you Just give me all you love 'Til you can't give any more No mercy, show me no mercy Love me all night long and don't hurry Take it slow and easy No mercy tonight Hold me baby You know I've been hurtin' Love this love back to life 'Cause it's worth it Love me strong, baby Show me no mercy tonight In the silence of the early hours I look at you and I feel the power Don't need promises to make it right Let's just follow what we're feeling inside Hold me baby You know I've been hurtin' Love this love back to life 'Cause it's worth it Love me strong, baby Show me no mercy tonight No mercy Show me no mercy tonight Love me strong And show me no mercy tonight |

Love came alive in a New York second
She was just a girl, running from the city I was just a farm boy Looking for a good time Neither one of us was out to fall in love She was getting gas At Thompson's station I was buying parts For the old man's tractor When she looked at me I knew it was more than love We talked, and she smiled And I swear, it about drove me half wild Love came alive in a New York second Just the way it's meant to be, I reckon Felt so good, it just keeps getting Better all the time she's with me Love came alive in a small town minute Came along and swept us both up in it The Texas sky ain't got no limit Ever since her sweet love came alive She was on her way up to Colorado Stopped to see a friend Down in Beaumont It's something how life Takes its twists and turns She asked me how to get To the local diner I said, 'I'll tell you if You let me join you.' She said, 'Fine.' And love began to burn. We laughed, and she smiled And I swear, it about drove me half wild Love came alive in a New York second Just the way it's meant to be, I reckon Felt so good, it just keeps getting Better all the time she's with me Love came alive in a small town minute Came along and swept us both up in it The Texas sky ain't got no limit Ever since her sweet love came alive Love came alive in a New York second Just the way it's meant to be, I reckon Felt so good, it just keeps getting Better all the time she's with me Love came alive in a small town minute Came along and swept us both up in it The Texas sky ain't got no limit Ever since her sweet love came alive Ever since her sweet love came alive |

I'd walk through fire
Take on the shadows I do anything For you, my love I'd risk it all without thinking All I can think about is holdin' on When my world feels like it's flyin' up above the rain Caught up in emotions that I can't explain It's a never ending feeling I can't get enough of I can't live without you baby, that's what I call love Money talks, people listen Some, they don't understand what it's all about 'Cause it can't be bought, it's only given Now that it's come along, there ain't no doubt When my world feels like it's flyin' up above the rain Caught up in emotions that I can't explain It's a never ending feeling I can't get enough of I can't live without you baby, that's what I call love Well I thought I'd looked in every corner And I swore I'd opened every door Just when I was giving up I finally found the one that I'd been searching for When my world feels like it's flyin' up above the rain Caught up in emotions that I can't explain It's a never ending feeling I can't get enough of I can't live without you baby, that's what I call love I can't live without you baby, that's what I call love |

He had a bottle in his left hand, an old Bible in his right
I thought now there's a sinner when he asked me for a light He hit me for a dollar, I just turned and walked away I was feeling high and mighty when I heard him say "Pray for me, pray for me Pray for me and I will pray for you" I thought who is he to pray for me as I hit my power lock And then the weight of my hypocrisy fell on me like a rock I caught him at the corner and I gave him my last ten I said, "Please forgive me, brother and until we meet again" "Pray for me, pray for me Pray for me and I will pray for you" You know each of us is broken somewhere deep inside And we're really not that different when you strip away the pride We've all got our struggles and chains that we can't break And you never know the difference one simple prayer might make I stood there on the corner and I watched him drifting off As the sun behind St. Mary's made the shadow of a cross On a street of busy people and places on the run I felt like calling out to each and every one "Pray for me, pray for me Pray for me and I will pray for you" "Pray for me, pray for me Pray for me and I will pray for you" "Pray for me, pray for me, pray for me" |

You've been whisperin' things
I've never heard Love's been redefined It's more than just a word I never thought I'd fall again But roads divide and new roads begin So it could take a lifetime To find someone like you I've been lookin' for a love like that Once you start it, you can't turn back I get the feelin' that I'm lookin' at The answer to my prayers 'Cause when you lay me down You set me free My heart stops when you touch me I've been lookin' for a love like that Each time it felt so right It always turned out wrong I know it was you I wanted all along I thought it was impossible But I think I found my miracle I only needed someone who Needs me like you do I've been lookin' for a love like that Once you start it, you can't turn back I get the feelin' that I'm lookin' at The answer to my prayers 'Cause when you lay me down You set me free My heart stops when you touch me I've been lookin' for a love like that I want a earth shaker, a risk taker One hell of a love maker Somebody that wants nobody but me I've been lookin' for a love like that 'Cause when you lay me down You set me free My heart stops when you touch me I've been lookin' for a love I've been lookin' for a love like that Love like that I've been lookin' for a love like that I've been lookin' for a love like that Love like that I've been lookin' for a love like that I've been lookin' for a love like that Love like that I've been lookin' for a love like that I've been lookin' for a love like that |
