Kenny Rogers & Dottie West
I'll need time to get you off my mind I may sometimes bother you, try to be in touch with you Even ask too much of you, from time to time Now and then, Lord, you know I'll need a friend And 'till I get used to losing you, let me keep on using you, 'Til I can make it on my own. I'll get by, but no matter how I try There'll be times that you'll know I'll call Chances are my tears will fall And I'll have no pride at all, from time to time But they say, oh, there'll be a brighter day But 'til then I lean on you, that's all I mean to do, 'Til I can make it on my own. Surely someday I'll look up and see the morning sun Without another lonely night behind me Then I'll know I'm over you and all my cryin's done No more hurtin' memories can find me. But 'til then, Lord, you know I'm gonna need a friend 'Til I get used to losing you, let me keep on using you 'Til I can make it on my own... |

Why do people cry
When they hear the word goodbye In a love song? Tears are sure to fall When you know they gave it all In a love song. Somehow two lovers get a chance At a beautiful romance And you wish it could be you. 'Cause everybody's needing What the singers all are singing In a love song. It can tear you apart 'Cause a word can break a heart In a love song. They say all the things you feel And they make it sound so real In a love song. It seems that everything they say Is said in such a way That we believe it's true. 'Cause everybody's needing What the singers all are singing In a love song. Each of us know There's no guarantee We'll ever find love. And in the songs that we share The heartache is there To remind us. New love brings a thrill And we know it always will In a love song. Happiness can leave But it helps if we believe In a love song. There's a part of you and me In every memory That tells us who we are. And everybody's needing. |

from Kenny Rogers - Love Is What We Make It (2007)
(Writers Kenny Rogers, Kin Vassey)
I see the town where we were born, I see the place we were raised, I see all the things you wanted That I never gave. I see sadness, I see sorrow, I see pain in your face, But I just can't see A stranger in my place. I can see now where we quarrelled, I can see now I was wrong, I can see where you might weaken When I wasn't strong. I see mem'ries of a love gone bad That time cannot erase, But I just can't see A stranger in my place. No one seems to know you quite like I do, No one knows the thigs that make you cry. Looking back it seems I never showed you, And now I lay alone and wonder why. I can see now where you might grow tired Of dreams that don't come true, I can see where I have fallen short Of the things I promised you. I can see now through my tear filled eyes No love on your face, I must get used to seein' Strangers in my place... |

Sometimes when I'm down and alone
I feel just like a child with out a home The love you give me keeps me hangin' on, honey All I ever need is you. Your my first love, your my last Your my future, your my past Ohhh loving you is all I ask, honey All I ever need is you. Winters come and then they go And we watch the melting snow Sure summer follows spring, all the things you do Give me a reason to build my world around you. (World around you) Some men follow rainbows I am told Some men search for silver, some for gold But I found my treasures in my soul And all I ever need is you. Without love I'd never find the way Through ups and downs of every single day And I won't sleep at night until you say Honey, all I ever need is you. La, La, La, La, La, La The love you give me keeps me hangin' on Honey, all I'll ever need is you. La, La, La, La, La, La But I found my treasures in my soul Honey, and all I ever need is you.

Are you sure I haven't loved you somewhere before
In another time, another place, on some distant shore? You know me so well, better than I know myself. And you'll love me tonight Like you've loved me all my life, all my life And with the touch of your hand You took me farther than I've never been You'll love me like, you've loved me all my life. Love like we made could have taken a lifetime to find But you found the way to my heart in a moment of time You know how to care just like you've always been there. And you'll love me tonight Like you've loved me all my life, all my life... |

Once in a lifetime the right love comes by
With no rhyme or reason, you never know why You wake up one morning and nothing's the same for you. The kisses taste sweeter, the touch just feels right You rush through the morning to get to the night And then you're together and it takes your breath away. So, hold on to your heart Lets think forever right from the start But loves not forever it's just for the rest of our lives. You're not my first love, but you'll be my last I give you my future, forgive me my past And I know in my heart, that this is what I want to do. If I had one life and one love There'd be one dream for the two of us As God is my witness, whatever you do Dont change a thing 'cause I love loving you And as God is my witness I'll give you all of my love. So. hold on to your heart, Girl, don't you know this felt good from the start As God is my witness I promise you I'll be here beside you Whatever you do. As God is my witness I'll give you all my love As God is my witness I'll give you all my love... |

You're that one special woman
I thought I'd never find With the stream to be gentle And the courage to be kind. Though it hasn't all been roses Still I know you understand One of these nights I'm gonna take you by the hand. And lay you down on a bed of roses In tha peaceful shelter only love can provide I'll lay you down on a bed of roses And then I'll lay me down right by your side. There's no diamond on your finger Just a simple wedding bend Since your knight in shining armor Is just an ordinary man. Though I promised you a kingdom And we don't have all we planned One of these nights when we're making believe I'm gonna take you by the hand. And lay you down on a bed of roses In tha peaceful shelter only love can provide I'll lay you down on a bed of roses And then I'll lay me down right by your side... |

All good things must end Like two heros in a story Let's go out like we came in In a blaze of glory Here we are broken-hearted We thought our love would never end We fell hard when we got started Fallin' out like we fell in Let's go out in a blaze of glory All good things must end Like two heros in a story Let's go out like we came in In a blaze of glory Let's gonna hurt each other That would be a worse mistake Once again let's act like lovers One more time for old-time's sake Let's go out in a blaze of glory All good things must end Like two heros in a story let's go out like we came in in a blaze of glory let's go out (let's go out) in a blaze of glory (in a blaze of glory) all good things must end like two heros (ah?) in a story (in a story?.) let's go out (let's go out) like we came in (like we came in) in a blaze of glory? |

Now if the aim in your life is to settle me down
I couldn't change my point of view I got a lady in red at the back of my head But the woman in white is you. Do you wanna be the only one, Fade away in the mornin' sun I could love you all of my life, you are my wife, Haven't I let you know. We don't need no buried treasure, No buried treasure, we don't need it We don't stand on ceremony But life is phony in spite of it. You can never be all you wanna be When you're searchin' for gold We don't need no buried treasure, I've still got you (still got you, still got you) I've still got you in my soul. Well, it's a long way down and you gotta get up, You gotta figure on a master plan You couldn't do it, if you don't get ready, You'll be beaten by the other man. Do you wanna be the last one in, Play the game that you just don't win I can see me makin' you cry, sayin' goodbye, But I could never let you go. We don't need no buried treasure, No buried treasure, we don't need it We don't stand on ceremony But life is phony in spite of it. You can never be all you wanna be When you're searchin' for gold We don't need no buried treasure, I've still got you (still got you, still got you) I've still got you in my soul. Well, you're takin' my life in the palm of your hand, Make you mine for another day Ain't nobody doesn't need anybody When the good times turn away. I don't wanna be the lonely one, Fade away in the evenin' sun I could love you all of my life, You are my wife, haven't I told you so. We don't need no buried treasure, No buried treasure, we don't need it (Baby we don't need it) We don't stand on ceremony But life is phony in spite of it. (In spite of it.) You can never be all you wanna be When you're searchin' for gold We don't need no buried treasure, I've still got you (still got you, still got you) I've still got you in my soul.

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
A three car garage, her own credit cards He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss good night If he could only read her mind, she'd say: Buy me a rose, call me from work Open a door for me, what would it hurt Show me you love me by the look in your eyes These are the little things I need the most in my life. Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone And she can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong 'Cause lately she'd try anything to turn his head Would it make a difference if she said: Buy me a rose, call me from work Open a door for me, what would it hurt Show me you love me by the look in your eyes These are the little things I need the most in my life. And the more that he lives the less that he tries To show her the love that he hold inside And the more that she gives the more that he sees This is a story of you and me. So I bought you a rose on the way home from work Opened the door to a heart that I hurt And I hope you notice this look in my eyes 'Cause I'm gonna make things right. I'm gonna hold you tonight Do all those little things For the rest of your life... |

(feat. Don Henley)
There's a back road leadin' off the hard-top Half-a-mile past the slingshot tree Wanders round through a million mem'ries It's callin' me, callin' me. There's a white house with fading shutters The old front door that never needed a key An' I hear my Momma in the hush of the evenin' Callin' me, yeah, she's callin' me. An' no matter where I'm goin' It reminds me of where I'm from Just as long as I can hear it I know I'm not too far gone. There's a first kiss under the willow Love so honest, it was hard to believe An' even when my heart is breakin' It's callin' me, callin' me. Yes, it's callin' me (Ooh, yeah, yeah.) Callin' me, callin' me. An' no matter where I'm goin' It reminds me of where I'm from Just as long as I can hear it I know I'm not too far gone. There's a tiny country chapel Filled with voices singin' harmony An' when my soul is lost in the silence Oh, it's callin'; yes, it's callin' me. Yes it's callin' me. (Callin' me.) Callin' Oh, it's callin' Yes, it's callin' me... |

Hark! how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away Christmas is here, bringing good cheer To young and old, meek and the bold Ding, dong, ding, dong, that is their song With joyful ring, all carolling. One seems to hear, words of good cheer From everywhere, filling the air Oh, how they pound, raising their sound O'er hill and dale, telling their tail Gaily they ring, while people sing Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here. Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas. On, on they send, on without end Their joyful tone, to every home Hark! how the bells, sweet silver bells All seem to say, throw cares away. Christmas is here, bringing good cheer To young and old, meek and the bold Ding dong, ding, dong, that is their song With joyful ring, all carolling One seems to hear, words of good cheer From everywhere, filling the air O, how they pound, raising their sound O'er hill and dale, telling their tail Gaily they ring, while people sing Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here.

He was born so far away
So the story's told We remember Christmas day When winter days grow cold With the time it passes by We put away the trim Then we live and wonder why We can't remember Him The Christmas star shines once a year And then it fades away Keep the spirit in your heart It's Christmas everyday (Christmas everyday) It's not the bells and it's not the snow And it's not the gifts we get But He was born so long ago It's easy to forget Peace on earth, goodwill to men But men can't go alone We get lost along the way But He can bring us home Remember Him throughout the year Without the star above He left us all a Christmas gift He left the gift of love The Christmas star shines once a year And then it fades away Keep the spirit in your heart And it's Christmas everyday |

How wise the wise men must have been
To find the child in Bethlehem He lives again and draws us near Christmas time is here A tail of love that never dies The laughter in the children's eyes The child in me is always there Christmas is my favorite time of year The mist of wonder lies under my tree The gift of memories is waiting for me The day will come and soon depart The spirit stays to hear my heart With love for people everywhere Christmas is my favorite time of the year Christmas is my favorite time of the year |

Evryone considered him the coward of the county.
Hed never stood one single time to prove the county wrong. His mama named him tommy, the folks just called him yellow, But something always told me they were reading tommy wrong. He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison. I looked after tommy cause he was my brothers son. I still recall the final words my brother said to tommy: Son, my life is over, but yours is just begun. Promise me, son, not to do the things Ive done. Walk away from trouble if you can. It wont mean youre weak if you turn the other cheek. I hope youre old enough to understand: Son, you dont have to fight to be a man. Theres someone for evryone and tommys love was becky. In her arms he didnt have to prove he was a man. One day while he was workin the gatlin boys came callin. They took turns at becky.... there was three of them! Tommy opened up the door and saw his becky cryin. The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand. He reached above the fireplace and took down his daddys picture. As his tears fell on his daddys face, he heard these words again: Promise me, son, not to do the things Ive done. Walk away from trouble if you can. It wont mean youre weak if you turn the other cheek. I hope youre old enough to understand: Son, you dont have to fight to be a man. The gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the barroom. One of them got up and met him halfway cross the floor. When tommy turned around they said, hey look! ol yellows leavin. But you coulda heard a pin drop when tommy stopped and blocked the door. Twenty years of crawlin was bottled up inside him. He wasnt holdin nothin back; he let em have it all. When tommy left the barroom not a gatlin boy was standin. He said, this ones for becky, as he watched the last one fall. And I heard him say, I promised you, dad, not to do the things you done. I walk away from trouble when I can. Now please dont think Im weak, I didnt turn the other cheek, And papa, I sure hope you understand: Sometimes you gotta fight when youre a man. Evryone considered him the coward of the county. |

In her arms he didnt have to prove he was a man. One day while he was workin the gatlin boys came callin. They took turns at becky.... there was three of them! Tommy opened up the door and saw his becky cryin. The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand. He reached above the fireplace and took down his daddys picture. As his tears fell on his daddys face, he heard these words again: Promise me, son, not to do the things Ive done. Walk away from trouble if you can. It wont mean youre weak if you turn the other cheek. I hope youre old enough to understand: Son, you dont have to fight to be a man. The gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the barroom. One of them got up and met him halfway cross the floor. When tommy turned around they said, hey look! ol yellows leavin. But you coulda heard a pin drop when tommy stopped and blocked the door. Twenty years of crawlin was bottled up inside him. He wasnt holdin nothin back; he let em have it all. When tommy left the barroom not a gatlin boy was standin. He said, this ones for becky, as he watched the last one fall. And I heard him say, I promised you, dad, not to do the things you done. I walk away from trouble when I can. Now please dont think Im weak, I didnt turn the other cheek, And papa, I sure hope you understand: Sometimes you gotta fight when youre a man. Evryone considered him the coward of the county. |

Girl, there are no words to say
What I feel in my heart You, you're on my mind night and day And it hurts me when we're apart When you're not here by my side There is nothing in this world for me I guess I'm crazy, crazy for you can't you see And although you may think it's crazy Here is where I want to be I will always need your love Now, I can see every dream When I look in your eyes And though things never are what they seem There is one thing that I realize That there's no doubt in my mind We can make this love go on forever I guess I'm crazy, crazy for you can't you see And although you may think I'm crazy Here is where I'll always be And I need you with me 'cause you are the dream That finally came true for me And all my life there'll be no one else If I looked all my life there could be no one else And for the rest of my life all I need is you |

Crazy in love.
Ain't funny how time Steals the feeling from a love affair And there's no place to lay the blame a?cos in any case, oh, no one cares helplessly we just watched it fade away neither will admit it are we both aching to say. We, you, I miss the days when we were crazy in love When you were so sure of me, I had my little jealousy. We, you, bring back the days when we were crazy in love I wanna feel that way again, remember when we were crazy in love. I know it used to be so easy One touch and I was high And I could get intoxicated Just by looking in your eyes Oh, baby ain't there anything we can do a?cos I know you're missing me as much as I've been missing you. We, you, a| Girl, we were more than best of friends We were crazy in love. |

But she knows too well there's something going on She's been neglected, and she needs a friend So her trembling fingers dial the telephone Lord, it hurts her doing this again He's the best friend that her husband ever knew When she's lonely, he's more than just a friend He's the one she longs to give her body to Daytime friends and nighttime lovers Hoping no one else discovers Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway Daytime friends and nighttime lovers They don't want to hurt the others So they love in the nighttime And shake hands in the light of day When it's over, there's no peace of mind Just a longing for the way things should have been And she wonders why some men never find That a woman needs a lover and a friend Daytime friends and nighttime lovers Hoping no one else discovers Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway Daytime friends and nighttime lovers They don't want to hurt the others So they love in the nighttime And shake hands in the light of day Daytime friends and nighttime lovers Hoping no one else discovers Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway Daytime friends and nighttime lovers They don't want to hurt the others So they love in the nighttime And shake hands in the light of day Daytime friends and nighttime lovers Hoping no one else discovers Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway Daytime friends and nighttime lovers They don't want to hurt the others So they love in the nighttime And shake hands in the light of day |
