Close your eyes, can you see me...
Rollin' down the Rocky Mountains Movin' like the wind that sweeps the Kansas plains I know you're with me As I make my way through Oklahoma Pass the barns and weather vanes There are motels, cafes, fields and billboard signs A thousand miles of highway Between your heart and mine... There will finally come a moment When one man and one woman Get everything that they've been waiting for... I'll take you in my arms again Feel your skin against my skin Let the sheet fall slowly to the floor Til nothing comes between us anymore... In my soul I can feel you... As I cross the Mississippi You're the river flowin' in me Comin' home I count each heartbeat... Til the moment we're together And the distance can't be measured That's all that keeps me goin' When I'm gone... There will finally come a moment When one man and one woman Get everything that they've been waiting for... I'll take you in my arms again Feel your skin against my skin Let the sheet fall slowly to the floor Til nothing comes between us anymore... Anymore... There will finally come a moment When one man and one woman Get everything that they've been waiting for... I'll take you in my arms again Feel your skin against my skin Let the sheet fall slowly to the floor Til nothing comes between us anymore... There will finally come a moment When one man and one woman Get everything, everything, everything (Fade out) |

God, it's safe to say it's been a tough year
The hardest one we've ever seen The world has never cried so many tears Or had so many broken dreams We've got some bad things going on around us We're killing each other senselessly It seems we've learned to hate instead of love I guess what I'm really trying to say We need you We need you We need you God, we need you I know soon it's Your Son's birthday And you must cry when it comes around He gave His life for us and a better way The day that cross hit the ground So when we celebrate this Christmas I hope you'll forgive us all somehow And as our children open presents I'll be praying for them now They need you They need you They need you God, they need you We need you to get us through I need you God, I need you Jesus love's me, this I know For the Bible tells me so Little ones to Him belong We are weak but He is strong |

Looking for spare change
To put gas in my car But what I've found Won't get me very far Seems lately the low times Have hit me pretty hard 'Cause I'm a few cents short From getting to where you are I'm a few cents short Of holding you in my arms And a few cents short Of keeping us from falling apart Ain't it funny how the money Can change our lives 'Cause I'm a few cents short From losing you tonight So I walked to a pay phone down the road But a few dimes and a nickel is all I had The operator wants more money To place my call But I'm a few cents short If that don't beat it all I'm a few cents short Of holding you in my arms And a few cents short Of keeping us from falling apart Ain't it funny how the money Can change our lives 'Cause I'm a few cents short From losing you tonight I'm a few cents short Of holding you in my arms And a few cents short Of keeping us from falling apart Sure is funny how the money Can change our lives 'Cause I'm a few cents short From losing you tonight Yes I'm a few cents short And I'll be losing you tonight |

I'm not one to take chances
I've always played it safe But girl I've been out on a limb Since I saw your smiling face I feel like I'm walking a tightrope When I'm out walking with you It's a dangerous liason I've got my heart into 'Cause we're not a sure thing Too soon to tell if we're the real thing But this time it's worth taking a chance On you and me But if doesn't work out Should you decide to walk out Well that's all right with me 'Cause girl I know you'd be A great memory Some folks would die for this moment But I've lived for this moment in time The love you bring may be a fleeting thing But oh right now it's mine If I should wind up lonely Well I won't mind being alone 'Cause if it works out that you leave me Least I'll have you to look back on 'Cause we're not a sure thing Too soon to tell if we're the real thing But this time it's worth taking a chance On you and me But if doesn't work out Should you decide to walk out Well that's all right with me 'Cause girl I know you'd be A great memory Yeah that's all right with me 'Cause girl I know you'd be A great memory |

I sit here tonight
And look in your eyes For that old familiar flame That love that burns Makes my wolrd turn Two hearts beating the same Is it all in my mind Or is it harder to find I feel like I'm in the dark I thought it was real But I'm starting to feel Like it must be all in my heart I'm a fool for believing But I just keep dreaming While we just keep drifting apart Trying to make something Where there's really nothing I guess it's all in my heart I keep telling myself There's something else I could do To find that spark But wherever it lies It's not in your eyes I guess it's all in my heart I'm a fool for believing But I just keep dreaming While we just keep drifting apart Trying to make something Where there's really nothing I guess it's all in my heart Just trying to make something Where there's really nothing I guess it's all in my heart |

I watch her lyin' in bed asleep
And I thank my lucky stars For every second she's here with me I wanna hold her in my arms She is my day She is my night She is the breath that gives me life Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry Sometimes we fight and we don't know why But no matter what she believes in me She's the closest to heaven I'll ever see She'll always be an angel in my eyes Sometimes I feel her by my side Like she's watchin' over me I get a chill runnin' down my spine And that's all the proof I need That she fills my heart She fills my soul She is the half that makes me whole Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry Sometimes we fight and we don't know why But no matter what she believes in me She's the closest to heaven I'll ever see She'll always be Well sometimes we laugh, and sometimes we cry Sometimes we fight and we dont know why But no matter what she believes in me She's the closest to heaven I'll ever see She'll always be She'll always be She'll always be An angel in my eyes |

That morning sun was burnin' in my eyes
I could see a brand new day And all the hurt and anger weighin' on my heart Had begun to drift away I saw it written on a church marquee as I drove into town Said today's a new beginning friend And I had to laugh out loud, 'cause there's no doubt I'm a brand new me I've been shattered by the storm but I survived I'm a brand new me I found a revelation in the tears I cried I opened up my eyes Oh, what a change I see I'm a brand new me There's a warrior and a victim living deep Inside all of us We have to choose to fight or surrender When the world beats us up I know where my weakness lies, but I know it's a fight that I can win I may get broken trying to get up But I can't wait to start again, I'm gonna start again I'm a brand new me I've been shattered by the storm but I survived I'm a brand new me I found a revelation in the tears I cried I opened up my eyes Oh, what a change I see I'm a brand new me Days come and go, yeah they come and go like a road with no end Hope fades but never dies Just look at me catchin' my second wind I'm a brand new me I've been shattered by the storm but I survived I'm a brand new me I found a revelation in the tears I cried I opened up my eyes Oh, what a change I see I'm a brand new me I'm a brand new me I'm a brand new me I'm a brand new me |

From my grandpa to my dad on to me All my life I've been shackled to a bottle I never knew what it was like to be free It's time to break this chain that's been holdin' me down Leave it layin' on the ground It's time to make a change, I've caused enough pain Lord, won't you help me break this chain I give you thanks for givin' me a reason And a wife with forgiveness in her smile Oh I want these two hands to be rock steady As she's handin' me our newborn baby child It's time to break this chain that's been holdin' me down Leave it layin' on the ground It's time to make a change, I've caused enough pain Lord, won't you help me break this chain It's time to make a change, I'm tired of this pain Lord, won't you help me break this chain You made the sunshine and the rain And you can wash away this pain |

She didn't see me see her cryin'
As she sat there by the window On a southbound Greyhound leavin' town The hardest thing I've ever done Was to walk away and let that woman go 'Cause she came close to turnin' me around Now I know she missed her mama 'Cause that's the kind of life she comes from Ain't no kinda life I'm ever gonna have She said she'd call me from the station But I'll be gone before she gets there And I'll see her every time I'm lookin' back Heaven knows I ain't no angel And I don't always do the right thing And right now I know that she don't understand But I'll sleep better knowin' The only thing I ever loved Is on that bus to Birmingham Tonight I'll slip back in the shadows And I'll sip a glass of whiskey And I'll try to keep from whisperin' her name But there's some highways I ain't driven And there's some towns that I ain't lived in And there's some times that I can't get out of the rain And Lord I can't bear to break Another promise that I made her So I made out like I wanted her to go And I'm better off believin' That she's better off without me 'Cause I don't want her to see me do her wrong Heaven knows I ain't no angel And I don't always do the right thing And right now I know that she don't understand But I'll sleep better knowin' The only thing I ever loved Is on that bus to Birmingham Heaven knows I don't always do the right thing And right now I know that she don't understand But I'll sleep better knowin' The only thing I ever loved Is on that bus to Birmingham |

He really liked flanel with red over-alls
If you look in his closet it was all that you saw He dressed up on Sunday and thought he look neat In a green leasure suit with wing tips on his feet And I was 15 and real hip with long hair and I asked momma why is daddy so square and I couldn't belive all that he didn't know I guess it's hard to be kool when your 40 years old The night i turned 20 she came with the news Scared half to death and didn't know what to do I told her I'm sorry but it's not to late there's a docter I heard of that fixes mastakes I though he was workin' and I was alone But he was stang behind me when I hug up the phone He said son there's a few thing you don't know about Ff you listen real close we can figure this out cus I was 18 and as wild as it came when one night A young girl told me the samething and you wouldn't be here If she haden't said no you see it's hard to be cool when you'r 20 years old These day's I like flanel and old leive jeans And I look at my young boy who just turned 15 and I know what he's thinking But's it ok to know because it's hard to be cool When your 15 years old |

Bring it on to me.
We're backwoods Dixie, flat woods pickin', Shotgun wavin', long-neck drinkin', Huntin' and a-fishin', workin' and a-wishin' for the weekend. We say: "Yes Ma'am, No Ma'am, Sir, can I lend a hand?" Take a stand for somethin' we believe in. Love an' pray and do anythin' for a good friend. We like camp fires burnin', buttermilk churnin', Old folks, dirt roads windin' and a-turnin', To a muddy creek; jumpin' from a talltree into the deep end. That's a country thang. People who don't live it might just think we've gone insane. But those of us down home, we can stand right up and say: It's a country thang. We like moonlight sippin', late skinny-dippin'. Flat rock skippin', catfish hittin'. Sittin' on a creek-bank, sun's up but we ain't leavin'. We like country twang, and good suthern rockin', Fun in the sun on the bass boat dockin'. Home made wine an' a mess of fish frying an' then a hot pan. Got Gran'mas, gran'pas, newborn young'uns; Double wide homes an' double first cousins. An old town square an' a county fair: it's a good plan. It's a country thang People who don't live it mught just think we've gone insane. But those of us down home, we can stand right up and say: It's a country thang. It's a country thang People who don't live it mught just think we've gone insane. But those of us down home, we can stand right up and say: It's a country thang. It's a country thang. It's a country thang. That's right! |

My every move, my every thought Like a fire the wind has caught As I begin To give you all of who I am Your every touch is my command When once again it seems I've loved you all I can Even then my heart will pound So loud the world will hear the sound Of how I couldn't love you more And even then Each night will bring another day Another chance for me to say Your arms are all I'm living for and loving in And even then the farthest star Will find us anywhere we are I will love you till the end And even then I won't know how to tell you this But I will say with every kiss No man has ever loved like this Or will again And when your auburn hair turns gray And there are lines across your face That map each moment and each place Our love has been Even then my heart will pound So loud the world will hear the sound Of how I couldn't love you more And even then Each night will bring another day Another chance for me to say Your arms are all I'm living for and loving in And even then the farthest star Will find us anywhere we are I will love you till the end And even then Yes I will love you till the end And even then |

Let me tell you 'bout a lady that I know
Who stood tall and proud beside me Down many a dead end road Never asking more than I could give And never once complaining About the way we had to live Well she never showed a sign of losing hope Though a million dreams and promises Have all gone up in smoke She hides her disappointment out of love And if I laid the whole world at her feet It wouldn't be enough She's the rock I lean on through it all Everytime I stumble Everytime I fall And though she's never shown it I've known it from the start Everytime I fall it breaks her heart Everytime I fall It breaks her heart Now let me tell you about the million silent tears I've found hidden on her pillow In the mornings through the years Somehow I'm still a hero in her eyes But to tell the truth I can't give you one good reason why She's the rock I lean on through it all Everytime I stumble Everytime I fall And though she's never shown it I've known it from the start Everytime I fall it breaks her heart Everytime I fall It breaks her heart |

Well last night me and darlin
We went explorin Pulled off the road to a place we'd never been I had to stop the truck because it was gettin muddy We started kissin, then I put it in... Four-Wheel Drive And we kept on goin Man what a ride It made me feel like a kid again Slippin and sliddin Bouncin around in the cab Bringin back old memories of all the good times we've had Then I pulled it out Back on the main road I looked over at darlin Her face was all a glow She said honey that was wonderful can we do it again So I leaned over toward her and I put it back in It made me feel like a kid again Slippin and sliddin Bouncin around in the cab Bringin back old memories of all the good times we've had Yeah darlin loves it when I put it in...four wheel drive |

Got some cash in my pocket
And it's burning a hole Got the boss on my back And it's getting real old This week's been hell But I'll party it out of my mind From Friday at five Till Sunday at closing time Ain't a punching no clock Ain't a making no plans Need a girl on my arm And a beer in my hands I'm tight as drum But I'm gonna cut loose and unwind From Friday at five Till Sunday at closing time Got some pretty little women waiting on me To shake up this sleepy old town That's one job I take seriously I wouldn't dream of letting them down Got a call from my ex And she's asking for more I'm late with the rent And the wolf's at the door But thats gonna be The furthest thing from my mind From Friday at five Till Sunday at closing time Got some pretty little women waiting on me To shake up this sleepy old town That's one job I take seriously I wouldn't dream of letting them down It might take me all week To get back on my feet But I know I'll be alright From Friday at five Till Sunday at closing time From Friday at five Till Sunday at closing time |

You say you want to be friends
That's a newly sharpened blade That's a dagger to the heart Of the promises we made That's a chapter full of pain A season full of rain A dark and stormy night Spent all alone Friends Get scattered by the wind Tossed upon the waves Lost for years on end Friends Slowly drift apart They give away their hearts Maybe call you Now and Then But you wanna be Just friends You say you love me very much And you'll always hold me dear Those are the sweetest words I never want to hear What's a love without desire A flame without a fire Can't warm me late at night When I need you most Friends Get scattered by the wind Tossed upon the waves Lost for years on end Friends Slowly drift apart They give away their hearts Maybe call you Now and Then But you wanna be Just friends Friends Slowly drift apart They give away their hearts Maybe call you now and then Darling can't you see This is killing me We could never be Just Friends |

Flat tire on the interstate;
Too many nights of workin' too late. Had a run in with an old memory. No, it ain't been the best of weeks. But it goes good with beer and the Friday night atmosphere. Of this cross-town bar where the cars all get steered to. And it goes hand-and-hand with my crazy buddies and this three-piece band, And the pretty girls and the games we play, and the smoke and mirrors: Yeah, troubles come, but they go good with beer. Yeah, it does, yeah. Bring all your debts and all your bills; Load up your mountains and your molehills. Come as you ain't or as you are, An' don't forget that broken heart, Oh, it goes good with beer and the Friday night atmosphere. Of this cross-town bar where the cars all get steered to. And it goes hand-and-hand with my crazy buddies and this three-piece band, An' the pretty girls and the games we play, and the smoke and mirrors: Yeah, troubles come, but they go good with beer. Yee haw, oh, yeah. Bring all those stories you can share. Just like the peanuts and the pretzels on the table there. Yeah, it all goes good with beer and the Friday night atmosphere, And the pretty girls and the games we play, and the smoke and mirrors: Yeah, troubles come, but they go... Good with beer and the Friday night atmosphere, Of this cross-town bar where the cars all get steered to. And they go hand-and-hand with my crazy buddies and this three-piece band, An' the pretty girls and the games we play, and the smoke and mirrors. Yeah, it all goes good with beer and the Friday night atmosphere, Of this cross-town bar where the cars all get steered to. And it goes hand-and-hand with my crazy buddies and this ten-piece band, An' the pretty girls and the games we play, and the smoke and mirrors: Yeah, troubles come, but they go good with beer. Pass me them peanuts brother. Shhhhhhh. |

After driving all night Daddy stopped the car
Said, "Wake up kids, here we are This is our new home" From that Oldsmobile all I could see Was an ocean of fields out in front of me It just rolled on, on and on Daddy crossed the fence and he knelt down Filled his hands with rich farmland and said "This is good ground" I had it all underneath my feet There was room to grow - there was time to breathe And dreams stretched high under summer skies This is where I'm from - this is who I am Down these roads I became a man And they're calling me - where my roots run deep Deep down - this is good ground Mama had me diggin' in her flower bed There it was an arrowhead And all I wanted to be, was Cherokee Seasons change and childhood goes I laid down my homemade bow for a brown-eyed girl She changed my world I learned to drive so we could ride around We made the sweetest memories in it On good ground I had it all underneath my feet There was room to grow - there was time to breathe And dreams stretched high under summer skies This is where I'm from - this is who I am Down these roads I became a man And they're calling me where my roots run deep Deep down - this is good ground I drove all night then I stopped the car Said, "Wake up kids, here we are This is our new home It's been too long" Crossed that fence and I knelt down Said, "Everybody gather 'round Hold out your hands, this is good ground" You've got it all underneath your feet There's room to grow - there's time to breathe And dreams stretch high under summer skies This is where I'm from - this is who I am Down these roads I became a man And they're calling me where my roots run deep Deep down - this is good ground |

I'm startin' to notice things in my life.
Seein' it all in a different light. An' I've opened my eyes. I'm learnin' to gaze up at the stars: See 'em for more than what they are. And I think I know why. The change in me is plain to see. And I know that I've got you to thank for: Makin' this world of mine slow down. Puttin' my feet back on the ground. Showin' me what life's all about. I got you to thank for that. 'Bout takin' the time to talk. Slowin' my run down to a walk. And I'm happy where I'm at. I got you to thank for that. I get a little more sleep at might these days, Left behind my restless ways, And it's easy 'cause you're with me. I'm takin' in stride what I can't change, Findin' some good in everything. And it calms me, it soothes me, To know that I can be this way. Without a doubt, I got you to thank for.......... Makin' this world of mine slow down. Puttin' my feet back on the ground. Showin' me what life's all about. I got you to thank for that. 'Bout takin' the time to talk. Slowin' my run down to a walk. And I'm happy where I'm at. I got you to thank for that. I feel this change in me and it's plain to see, Baby, I know I've got you to thank for...... Makin' this world of mine slow down. Puttin' my feet back on the ground. Showin' me what life's all about. I got you to thank for that. 'Bout takin' the time to talk. Slowin' my run down to a walk. And I'm happy where I'm at. I got you to thank for that. Makin' this world of mine slow down. Puttin' my feet back on the ground. Showin' me what life's all about. I got you to thank for that. 'Bout takin' the time to talk. Slowin' my run down to a walk. And I'm happy where I'm at. I got you to thank for that. I got you to thank for that. |

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your hearts be light From now on Our troubles will be out of sight Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the Yule-tide gay From now on Our troubles will be miles away Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Will be near to us once more Through the years We all will be together If the Fates allow Until then we'll have to muttle through somehow So have yourself a merry little Christmas now Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Will be near to us once more Through the years We all will be together If the Fates allow Until then we'll have to muttle through somehow So have yourself a merry little Christmas now Have yourself a merry little Christmas now Merry Christmas |

I never thought I'd find out what I found in your touch Someone up there must like me 'cause I'm Lookin' at the proof there's no doubt about it Heaven sent me you Heaven sent me you to make my life complete An angel from above to watch over me What makes it even better Is you feel the same way too There's no doubt about it Heaven sent me you Every moment that we share will live forever in my mind Every memory that we make Are sure to outlast time I know when I hold you close I'm holdin' Love that's true There's no doubt about it Heaven sent me you Heaven sent me you to make my life complete An angel from above to watch over me What makes it even better Is you feel the same way too There's no doubt about it Heaven sent me you There's no doubt about it Heaven sent me you |

Tore out her page from my little black book
Took out her picture, gave it one last look Hung a big sign out on the door Saying "Love don't live around here no more" Packed up what was left of my pride Topped up the tank for the long hard ride Seventeen miles out of Loneliville Yonder came my darlin' in a "Coupe de Ville" So long heartache - adios Sorrow see ya later time to hit the road Goodbye pain and misery Hello L-O-V-E Well I spun around then I hit the gas Hot on the tail of that Cadillac Said a little prayer, held my breath Sure enough the green light turned to red So long heartache - adios Sorrow see ya later time to hit the road Goodbye pain and misery Hello L-O-V-E She looked at me - I looked at her A few days later in a little brown church Made a sweet deal with the justice of the peace Forty-five dollars for a license and a ring (Forty-five dollars for a license and a ring) So long heartache - adios Sorrow see ya later time to hit the road Goodbye pain and misery Hello L-O Hello L-O Hello L-O-V-E |

That ol' drive-in is a parking lot
They made a shopping mall out of our make-out spot The oldies station plays all those songs We used to sing And even though that ol' high school's gone It started somethin' that's still goin' strong I swear sometimes I can hear that ol' bell ring 'Cause you still slide in close to me Just like you did in my ol' Grand Prix You still get a little jealous If I speak to Jenny Barnes That yearbook smile still drives me mad With all that's changed, I'm so glad You're still lovin' me With that some ol' high school heart I'd take off runnin' to Mrs. Walker's class Lipstick on my cheek and a note in my hand I'm still runnin' late 'cause I still can't pull away From your lovin' arms Every time we touch, you make it feel brand new I guess that's why I'm still fallin' for you You're still lovin' me With that same ol' high school heart 'Cause you still slide in close to me Just like you did in my ol' Grand Prix You still get a little jealous If I speak to Jenny Barnes That yearbook smile still drives me mad With all that's changed, I'm so glad You're still lovin' me With that some ol' high school heart You're still lovin' me With that some ol' high school heart |

With you for the rest of my life I wanna feel your heart beating And just get lost in your eyes You can tell me your secrets You can let me feel your pain You can show me your weakness And never be ashamed Hold on to me when your world's turnin' cold When it feels like your life's spinnin' out of control You're hopin', prayin', tryin' so hard to believe Hold on to me when there's no middle ground And every emotion is comin' unwound And you don't know if you can hold on to your dreams Baby you can hold on to me I wanna lay down each evenin' With you right here by my side I wanna get drunk on your laughter And wipe all the tears when you cry You can scare me with your darkness You can blind me with your light Throw your worries out the window baby On your wildest night Hold on to me when your world's turnin' cold When it feels like your life's spinnin' out of control You're hopin', prayin', tryin' so hard to believe Hold on to me when there's no middle ground And every emotion is comin' unwound And you don't know if you can hold on to your dreams Baby you can hold on to me Hold on to me when there's no middle ground And every emotion is comin' unwound And you don't know if you can hold on to your dreams Baby you can hold on I said Baby you can hold on I said Baby you can hold on to me |

There's a little girl
Wanna make her mine What she wants I don't know If red means stop An' green means go Her light is always yellow I'm wrapped around her finger She's slipping through my hands Every time I think I got her I gotta think again...I'm Holdin' on to something That keeps letting me go Just a whole lotta heartache At the end of my rope I fall a little harder every time I drop But I keep reaching 'cause I can't stop Holdin' on to something that keeps letting me go She calls me on the phone Says she's all alone Felling kinda lonely Says she can't wait So don't be late I promise her I won't be Ten minutes later I'm standing at her door She's saying, "Never mind, I ain't lonely anymore"...I'm Holdin' on to something That keeps letting me go Just a whole lotta heartache At the end of my rope I fall a little harder every time I drop But I keep reaching 'cause I can't stop Holdin' on to something that keeps letting me go I fall a little harder every time I drop But I keep reaching 'cause I can't stop Holdin' on to something that keeps letting me go Just a whole lotta heartache At the end of my rope Holdin' on to something That keeps letting me go |

Clocking in and out again I guess I'm just An average man but these calloused hands Are holding an amazing love I have seen treasured dreams turn to dust That fade away like yesterday that I'll never touch But fortune's been kind 'cause these arms of mine Are holding an amazing love So just hold me closer And tell me you love me And that everything is alright Oh the weight of the world Rolls off my shoulders Whenever I look in your eyes Just another guy pulling in the drive in a rush Standing at the door's what he's living for and needs so much Just an average man but these calloused hands Are holding an amazing love I'm just an average man but these calloused hands Are holding an amazing love |

Things don't always go my way It might rain but that's okay I get to come home to you Sometimes life may get me down And I get tired of getting kicked around I feel lost in this maddening crowd But I get to come home to you You are my best friend And you are where my heart is And I know at the day's end I get to come home to you Hanging out in our old sweatshirts You let me complain about a hard day's work I don't know what I did to deserve To get to come home to you You are my best friend And you are where my heart is And I know at the day's end I get to come home to you You are my best friend And you are where my heart is And I know at the day's end I get to come home to you Yes I get to come home to you Oh I love coming home to you |

Things don't always go my way It might rain but that's okay I get to come home to you Sometimes life may get me down And I get tired of getting kicked around I feel lost in this maddening crowd But I get to come home to you You are my best friend And you are where my heart is And I know at the day's end I get to come home to you Hanging out in our old sweatshirts You let me complain about a hard day's work I don't know what I did to deserve To get to come home to you You are my best friend And you are where my heart is And I know at the day's end I get to come home to you You are my best friend And you are where my heart is And I know at the day's end I get to come home to you Yes I get to come home to you Oh I love coming home to you |

from John Michael Montgomery - What I Do Best (1996)
Well I hoped and I prayed, I loved you from afar
I cried, and I dreamed, wished on every star But nothin' I'd do got me closer to you So I locked all my feelings inside Then one night across a crowded room You looked my way, your eyes held something new You walked right up to me and smiled tenderly And your words came as such a surprise Well how was I to know You never let it show What a beauty like you might see In a poor boy like me How could I have seen You walk out of my dreams Shine your light on my sleepin' heart And into my soul How was I to know You took my hand and led me out the door We talked and we laughed 'Bout all the times before When two lonely people so much in love Passed like ships in the night Well how was I to know You never let it show What a beauty like you might see In a poor boy like me How could I have seen You walk out of my dreams Shine your light on my sleepin' heart And into my soul How was I to know How could I have seen You walk out of my dreams Shine your light on my sleepin' heart And into my soul How was I How was I to know Oooh Oooh Ooooooooh Oh Oh |

They read you Cinderella
You hoped it would come true That one day your Prince Charming Would come rescue you You like romantic movies, you never will forget The way you felt when Romeo kissed Juliet And all this time that you've been waiting You don't have to wait no more I can love you like that I will make you my world Move heaven and earth If you were my girl I would give you my heart Be all that you need Show you you're everything That's precious to me If you give me a chance I can love you like that I never make a promise I don't intend to keep So when I say forever, forever's what I mean I'm no Casanova, but I swear this much is true I'll be holdin nothin back when it comes to you You dream of love that's everlasting Well baby open up your eyes I can love you like that I will make you my world Move heaven and earth If you were my girl I would give you my heart Be all that you need Show you you're everything That's precious to me If you give me a chance I can love you like that You want tenderness (tenderness) I've got tenderness And I see through to the heart of you If you want a man (want a man) who understands Well you don't have to look very far I can love you like that I will make you my world Move heaven and earth If you were my girl I would give you my heart Be all that you need Show you you're everything That's precious to me If you give me a chance I can love you like that |

I know he gave you every reason
To lose your faith in love Give me the chance I'll find the pieces To a heart that's given up You say there's nothing I can do But no one's ever too far gone It's a heartache talking when You say you'll never love again And I can prove you wrong I can prove you wrong I know I can make you see That you're right where you belong When you're right here with me If I could wrap these arms around you You won't even know he's gone But if you're still afraid Love always ends that way I can prove you wrong I can show you what I'm saying Is so much more than empty words And if you want me here I'm staying But I'll walk away if you prefer A broken heart takes time to heal And right now yours is not that strong You say there's no one left for you But if you want me to I can prove you wrong I can prove you wrong I know I can make you see That you're right where you belong When you're right here with me If I could wrap these arms around you You won't even know he's gone But if you're still afraid Love always ends that way I can prove you wrong But if you're still afraid Love always ends that way I can prove you wrong |

When we're this close I can almost
Hear your heart beat As you softly breathe lyin' here with me Your skin's like a canvas Being painted by the moonbeams Truly a masterpiece To you it comes naturally I couldn't dream a love better than this Could never imagine such a kiss Or the way your body feels in my arms Old Mister Sandman I'll resist 'Cause if I were to sleep look at all I'd miss I couldn't dream a love better than this It's getting late But I don't want to close my eyes I don't care about the time Or the world outside We're movin' to the music playin' in our minds The mood's just right for staying up all night I couldn't dream a love better than this Could never imagine such a kiss Or the way your body feels in my arms Old Mister Sandman I'll resist 'Cause if I were to sleep look at all I'd miss I couldn't dream a love better than this I've had my fantasies But none compare to reality I couldn't dream a love better than this Could never imagine such a kiss Or the way your body feels in my arms Old Mister Sandman I'll resist 'Cause if I were to sleep look at all I'd miss I couldn't dream I couldn't dream a love better than this I can't get no sleep I couldn't dream a love better than this |

Well I don't wanna hear last call
And I don't wanna look at the clock on the wall Let's lose track of time while we're dancing this close And I don't really care if no one's around We can just stay right here until the moon goes down If it were left up to me, I would never let go But if this is a dream then I don't wanna wake up And see the sun shine again As long as you're in my arms I don't want this song to end Let me look in your eyes and count the stars Let me hold you tight next to my heart And I'll whisper I love you for the rest of my life Let's make believe the music plays For just you and me could make the world go away In perfect time you will always be mine But if this is a dream then I don't wanna wake up And see the sun shine again As long as you're in my arms I don't want this song to end Yeah if this is a dream then I don't wanna wake up And see the sun shining in As long as you're in my arms I don't want this song to end Now if you're in my arms I don't want this song to end |

Another night on this interstate
Seems like I've been on it everyday for years now Does it ever end On my way to another show Where I'll end up, I don't even know where I'm going Or where I've been Don't know why, don't know how But I keep comin' back for more It's my life, there's no doubt Guess I'll never know for sure But when I stand on the stage, and the curtain falls I love it all It's getting late, I think I'll lay it down Then I'll wake up in some other town and I'll wander To my hotel room I'll walk around just a-wastin' time Lookin' for a little peace of mind I bet I'll find it On an ole barstool Don't know why, don't know how But I keep comin' back for more It's my life, there's no doubt Guess I'll never know for sure But when I stand on the stage, and the curtain falls I love it all Don't know why, don't know how But I keep comin' back for more It's my life, there's no doubt Guess I'll never know for sure But when I stand on that stage and the curtain falls And the crowd wants to stay for one more song I love it all Another night on this interstate Seems like I've been on it everyday for years now I hope it never ends |

from John Michael Montgomery - Life's A Dance (1992)
I like the feel of your name on my lips
And I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss. The way that your fingers run through my hair, And how your scent lingers even when you're not there. And I like the way your eyes dance when you laugh, And how you enjoy your two hour bath. And how you convinced me to dance in the rain With everyone watching like we were insane. But I love the way you love me. Strong and wild, slow and easy. Heart and soul, so completely. I love the way you love me. I like to imitate ol' Jerry Lee an' watch you roll your eyes when I'm slightly off-key. And I like the innocent way that you cry At sappy old movies you've seen hundreds of times But I love the way you love me. Strong and wild, slow and easy. Heart and soul, so completely. I love the way you love me. And I could list a million things I love to like about you, but they all come down to one reason I could never live without you. But I love the way you love me. Strong and wild, slow and easy. Heart and soul, so completely. I love the way you love me. |

Sometimes a song can touch a nerve
That takes me back to you When I pick up my old guitar And I play your favorite tune Every now and then, some little thing I've buried comes bubblin' up And once in a while, you feel close enough to touch I miss you a little since you've been gone A few little memories keep hangin' on I miss you a little, I guess you could say A little too much, a little too often A little more everyday When I go by our old house I pretend that you're still there Waitin' for me on the porch But there's just an empty chair Wish I could see you one more time Before I drive away So I could stop and go inside, and say I miss you a little since you've been gone A few little memories keep hangin' on I miss you a little, I guess you could say A little too much, a little too often A little more everyday A little too much, a little too often A little more everyday |

There's no tellin' who in the world there you're gonna see Lost in space at the cash-only aisle number three I came face-to-face with an old memory Caught by surprise I felt I was gasping for air Paper or plastic can't you see man I don't really care She hadn't noticed me and I thought I'd leave it that way Then her eyes met mine and from that point there was no escape I said it's wonderful to see you This is sure a nice surprise Your little girl is lovely No doubt she's got your eyes Yeah, it looks like it might rain today But I guess we're overdue Oh and by the way - I never stopped lovin' you I remember where you got that sweatshirt you're wearin' Do you? I won it at the county fair back in '92 Yeah, I'm still playin' softball with the same old bunch In a lot of way things haven't changed very much I said it's wonderful to see you This is sure a nice surprise Your little girl is lovely No doubt she's got your eyes Yeah, it looks like it might rain today I guess we're overdue Oh and by the way - I never stopped lovin' you Oh and by the way - I never stopped lovin' you |

from John Michael Montgomery - Pictures (2002)
The first night we brought you home, it scared me half to death.
I stood right beside your crib and counted every breath. Lookin' at your little face, heaven seemed so close, It felt all right to ask the Lord for what I want the most. I wanna be there when you're one, And you're just learning how to walk. I wanna be there when you're two, An' hear the funny ways you talk. I wanna be there when you're three, An my wall's covered up with chalk. My only prayer: I wanna be there. I'd like to save some money so we could buy a bigger house. Worked harder at my job to make my family proud. A million things I've got in mind that I want to do. God willing, I've got time: that's what I'll give to you. I wanna be there when you're fifteen, And you're havin' your first date. I wanna be there when you're sixteen, And your heart's had it's first break. I wanna be there when you're seventeen, And think that you can't wait. My only prayer: I wanna be there. I wanna be there when my little girl. Was walkin' down the aisle. I wanna be there, fightin' back the tears, An' tryin' hard to smile.. I wanna be there with your Momma, When you're havin' your first child.. My only prayer: I wanna be there. My only prayer: I wanna be there. |

If you've got faith and you believe in what you're living for,
you can stand your ground when the devil's at your door. And a little hope can help you when the road is gettin' rough. But there's nothing quite like life if you've got love. If you've got love you can move a mountain a little bit further down the line. You can do it all at once or one rock at a time. you can turn a ordinary picture into a priceless work of art. That's what you can do if you've got love in your heart. Now there's nothing like a real good friend to tell your troubles to, but there's just so much a real good friend can't do. 'Cause it takes a lover's touch to chase the darkest blues away. If you've got love, you've got what it takes. If you've got love you can move a mountain a little bit further down the line. You can do it all at once or one rock at a time. you can turn a ordinary picture into a priceless work of art. That's what you can do if you've got love in your heart. |

Every guy in my country road home town,
Lost their mind when this one girl came around. Oh, I was seventeen, The first time that she looked my way. Hot as the pavement in July. Started somethin' in my mind. An' it goes like this. That girl has got a thunderstorm of love down inside her. When we kiss, Nothin' in the world can take me higher: There's just one way to describe her, And it goes like this. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. When it's right love don't care just where it spawns. That girl and I went all the way a ringin' on, yeah. Now every night, it's just as good as that first time. She's somethin' that words can't say. She still comes in love her own way. An' it goes like this. That girl has got a thunderstorm of love down inside her. When we kiss, Nothin' in the world can take me higher: There's just one way to describe her, And it goes like this. We got each other, not much else, How she keeps me smilin', it's hard to tell. But it goes like this. That girl has got a thunderstorm of love down inside her. When we kiss, Nothin' in the world can take me higher: There's just one way to describe her, And it goes like this. Aw, that's right. It goes like this. |

Well I was just a kid maybe 2 or 3,
Had a bad nightmare scared the life outa me, Momma came in to calm my fears, When nothing she could do to would stop those tears, She carried me down the stairs To that living room and sat down in that chair, And it rocked, It made me feel better, Dont know why but it really doesnt matter, It rocked, Thats all I know, Something about the rythm of it soothed my soul, And thats a feeling that i never forgot, And it rocked I was 17 and I fell for this girl, As far as I could tell she was my only world, I was confused about life, In the dark about love, I heard alot of stories but I didnt know much, We took a drive down to the river one night, She told me when to stop then she kissed me just right, And it rocked, It made me feel better, Dont know why but it really doesnt matter, It rocked, Thats all I know, Something about the rythm of it soothed my soul, That old chevy had brand new shocks, But it rocked After graduation I was workin odd jobs, changed a lot of oil in my uncles garage, Some friend of mine they were startin up a band, I would sing for free so I was their man, We were'nt that good and we seldom got paid, But everbody knew when we took the stage, It rocked, It made us feel better, Dont know why but it really doesnt matter, It rocked, Thats all I know, Something about the rythm of it soothed our soul, And thats a feeling that we never forgot, And it rocked |

I got my first guitar when I was just a boy
I was playing the blues instead of playing with toys Listening to the Opry and dreaming of the neon lights So it was late to bed and early to rise I worked the field all day and the crowd all night My finger on the trigger and Nashville in my sights I'm the real thing and I sing songs about real life And I never heard a fiddle called a violin Never really worried if I fit in Country ain't what I sing it's what I am This hat ain't something I wear for style These boots have been around a while Country ain't what I sing it's what I am I learned to drive on a dirt road Cruised the strip on rock and roll And drove around on "Miles and Miles of Texas" And as I grew Daddy showed me now To earn a living by the sweat of my brow But he never made me follow in his steps He said work hard and let the good Lord do the rest And I never heard a fiddle called a violin Never really worried if I fit in Country ain't what I sing it's what I am This truck ain't something I drive for style These boots have been around a while Country ain't what I sing it's what I am And I never heard a fiddle called a violin Never really worried if I fit in Country ain't what I sing it's what I am This hat ain't something I wear for style These boots have been around a while Country ain't what I sing it's what I am |

Boots in the stirrups out of the gate trying to hold the reins
Praying that I can just sit tight, man this love is strange Up like a rocket spinning 'round like a top My strength is fading fast I should have known when I climbed on My next breath could be my last Somedays I'm in the saddle Somedays I get thrown Somedays I hold on for dear life This love is sure 'nough just like a rodeo Eight short seconds lasts a long long time My life flashed before my eyes Ain't never been bucked like this before But I got to thank you for the ride Somedays I'm in the saddle Somedays I get thrown Somedays I hold on for dear life This love is sure 'nough just like a rodeo Somedays I'm in the saddle Somedays I get thrown Somedays I hold on for dear life This love is sure 'nough Somedays I'm in the saddle Somedays I get thrown Somedays I hold on for dear life This love is sure 'nough just like a rodeo Just like a rodeo |

When I was fourteen I was fallin' fast
For a blue-eyed girl in my homeroom class. Tryin to find the courage to ask her out Was like tryin' to get oil from a water spout. What she would've said, I can't say. I never did ask then she moved away. I learned something from my blue-eyed girl: sink or swim, you gotta give it a whirl. Life's a dance, you learn as you go. Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow. Don't worry 'bout what you don't know, life's a dance, you learn as you go. The longer I live the more I believe You do have to give if you wanna receive. There's a time to listen, a time to talk. And you might have to crawl even after you walk. Had sure things blow up in my face, Seen the longshot win the race. Been knocked down by the slammin' door. Picked myself up and came back for more. Life's a dance, you learn as you go. Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow. Don't worry 'bout what you don't know, life's a dance, you learn as you go. Life's a dance, you learn as you go. Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow. Don't worry 'bout what you don't know, life's a dance, you learn as you go. Life's a dance, you learn as you go. Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow. Don't worry 'bout what you don't know, life's a dance, you learn as you go. Life's a dance Life's a dance Life's a dance Take a chance on love Life's a dance you learn as you go |

Packed an old cane pole
Crossed the shoulder through the woods To the fishing hole I tried to keep up the best I could He answered with love All the questions of his little man Daddy taught me about life In words I could understand You gotta roll up your sleeves Put your back into your work son Always believe in the good Lord's way You gotta hold your mouth right When your going for the big one Once you get a line on love Don't let it get away Driving my old car That we worked on after school He's a football star And his daddy's a proud old fool It's a brand new world Full of girls and teenage dreams When he asks for my advice The answer's still the same You gotta roll up your sleeves Put your back into your work son Always believe in the good Lord's way You gotta hold your mouth right When your going for the big one Once you get a line on love Don't let it get away Once you get a line on love Don't let it get away |

There's a little boy on his knees beside his bed
With a cowboy hat upon his bowed head Tryin' to keep the tears in his eyes And his heart breaks as the little cowboy cries As the cowboy cries He says God forgive me please I didn't want my daddy to leave And I promise to be good this time But his heart breaks as the little cowboy cries There's another heart in pain outside his door His momma heard him cry as she walked the floor Her love for his daddy has died And her heart breaks as her little cowboy cries As her cowboy cries She says God forgive me please I know I made him leave But the pain will go away in time But her heart breaks as her little cowboy cries In a smoky little bar way downtown His daddy is drinkin' whiskey down Tryin' to kill the pain he feels inside And his heart breaks as his little cowboy cries And his cowboy cries He says God forgive me please I know I had to leave Things haven't been good for a long, long time And his heart breaks as his little cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As the cowboy cries As the cowboy cries As the cowboy cries As the cowboy cries |

Tennis ball and a catcher's mitt
I remember that boy throwing it High up in the air then catching it While the oak tree leaves cheered Oh, look at me now all grown up looking back again Sitting here wondering where the time all went What do I know now that I didn't know then Not much Oh, look at me know, On the fifty-first floor looking down on it all With my name on the door and degree on the wall Yeah, Look at me now I did everything right, but I got it all wrong Heaven please forgive me for taking so long You see, all that I've done it doesn't matter at all It's what I leave here when I'm gone Oh, look at me now Where is that young boy I used to be Who was never afraid of anything Now I'm watching that clock catch up with me And it's frightening I did everything right, but I got it all wrong Heaven please forgive me for taking so long You see, all that I've done it doesn't matter at all It's what I leave here when I'm gone Oh, Look at me now All grown up looking back again Sitting here wondering where the time all went What do I know now that I didn't know then Tennis ball and a catcher's mitt I remember that boy throwing it High up in the air then catching it While the oak trees cheered |

Ah, sit down here with me now.
Baby, you look good tonight, That cotton dress sure suits you right, But I may not be thinkin' what you're thinkin'. Before I go an' promise you, All those things that lovers do, Girl, you need to know that I've been drinkin'. Under normal circumstances, I'd never lie to you, But the devil in me dances when I've had one or two. You know love and alcohol, Can't trust that stuff at all. It always seems to get the best of me. The combination's dangerous, Every time I mix 'em up, I end up sayin' somethin' I don't mean. Well, it ain't my fault: Blame it on love and alcohol. Now if you happen to decide, To take me home with you tonight, Baby, I'll be glad to go along. But there'll be no "I told you so's". I'll tell you now so now you know: Come tomorrow morning, I'll be gone. Now before you drink another, Before I finish mine, I think I oughta warn you one more time. You know love and alcohol, Can't trust that stuff at all. It always seems to get the best of me. The combination's dangerous, Every time I mix 'em up, I end up sayin' somethin' I don't mean. Well, it ain't my fault: Blame it on love and alcohol. C'mon now. Hey bartender, we need a couple more over here, now. I ain't done yet. You know love and alcohol, Can't trust that stuff at all. It always seems to get the best of me. The combination's dangerous, Every time I mix 'em up, I end up sayin' somethin' I don't mean. Well, it ain't my fault: Blame it on love and alcohol. You know, it ain't my fault: Blame it on love and alcohol. Ah, baby, you're lookin' better all the time. |

Before my second year of college, you were barely seventeen.
I was haulin' hay for your Daddy, an' you brought me a glass of tea. To a farm boy from Oklahoma, you were small town Texas prize, An' every young man's dream in cut-off jeans, with that Homecoming Queen smile. You were makin' fun of my farmer's tan an' I was lettin' you. An' fightin' bull in the July heat, tryin' to keep my cool. An' the prairie wind sang while the dust devils danced. It just got hotter as the summer passed. An' that first kiss stole our breath away. An' the breeze died down as our hearts surrendered. The moonlight shattered as it crashed on the river. We both knew we'd never be the same: 'Cause love changes everything. I think your Daddy wondered but I know your Momma knew, 'Cause she pulled me aside one Friday night and said take good care of you. We'd steal away after supper to our favorite place in the sand, By the red water's edge where we'd hold hands while the sun melted into the land. We lost more than sleep on one hot August night. By mornin' we were seein' some things for the very first time. An' the prairie wind sang while the dust devils danced. Just got hotter as the summer passed. An' that first touch stole our breath away. An' the breeze died down as our hearts surrendered. The moonlight shattered as it crashed on the river. We both knew we'd never be the same: 'Cause love changes everything. I never found my way back to college, An' we found other loves since then. But that first one will live forever, 'Cause I'll always remember when: Those prairie wind sang while the dust devils danced. Just got hotter as the summer passed. An' that first kiss stole our breath away, ohhhh. An' the breeze died down as our hearts surrendered. The moonlight shattered as it crashed on the river. We both knew we'd never be the same: 'Cause love changes everything. Whoa love changes everything, yeah. |
