You haven't said a single word to me this morning Still upset about the fight we had last night Well life's to short for silence in the hallway Darling won't you look me in the eye
(CHORUS) Time has come for mending fences A little love, will fix things up I know you care let's stop pretending We've been cold long enough So heart to heart Why don't we start mending fences
We don't have to be so stubborn and heard headed All those hurtful things we said don't matter now So how about a hug let's start forgivin' There's just one way to work this out
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(BRIDGE) We may not always see things eye to eye So come a little closer and let's compromise
When the good Lord was handing out The best things from above We got the love We got the love
I know we don't have a lot of money We can barely keep the bills paid honey But when we're in each other's arms Who needs all that stuff We got the love We got the love
Don't need the finer things Fancy cars or no diamond rings I wanna roll down a simple road Rock with you when we get old
Sometimes life's a desperate situation Sometimes it's just grim determination But I know we'll do what it takes To make us tough enough
We got the love We got the love
We got the love We got the love
Don't need the finer things Fancy cars or no diamond rings I wanna roll down a simple road Rock with you when we get old
Built this house of bricks and stone together Trying to make it strong to last forever But if these walls come tumblin' down We still ain't givin' up
We got the love We got the love
We got the love We got the love
Roll down a simple road Rock with you till we get old.....
As far as I can tell We're near the end I know the feeling well So don't pretend
Another night alone You're in my dreams Say it isn't so And never leave
Oh why did I have to let you go I'll try to tell myself In time I'll fall in love with someone else
This heart of mine, I know it well It won't stay broken forever In time I'll pull myself together I'll be alright as far as I can tell
As far as I can see There's no where left to turn We're never gonna be the way we were
Oh why did I let you lead me on You lied, you broke my heart You left me standing out here in the dark
This heart of mine, I know it well It won't stay broken forever I don't need your arms to run to I can learn to live without you
These eyes of mine, they finally see You never really cared for me I'll pull myself together I'll be alright as far as I can tell
The saddest part of love is when you watch it walk away There's nothing you can do Just try to hold on and be strong Someone else will surely come along
This heart of mine, I know it well It won't stay broken forever
One day soon I'll feel much better Nothing ever lasts forever In time I'll pull myself together I'll be alright as far as I can tell
The road I have traveled on Is paved with good intentions It's littered with broken dreams That never quite came true
When all of my hopes were dying Her love kept me trying She does her best to hide The pain that she's been through
*When she cries at night And she doesn't think that I can hear her She tries to hide All the pain that she's been through So I pray this time I can be the man that she deserves 'Cause I die a little each time When she cries
She's always been there for me Whenever I've fallen When nobody else believes She'll be there by my side
I don't know how she takes it Just once I'd like to make it Then there'll be tears of joy That fill her loving eyes
*Repeat
So I pray this time I can be the man that she deserves 'Cause I die a little each time When she cries
Lover's moon a forgotten road Two lonely strangers a thousand miles from home Two hearts just trying to find their way
Like skipping stones in a desperate flight We caught the wind and sailed across that great divide Thrown to the night we let passion guide our way And I can still hear them say
(CHORUS) Meet me on the other side Let's not forget what we shared tonight That lonely river's running deep and wide Say you'll meet me on the other side
Her restless soul took her off somewhere Night after night I think I see her face out there A glimpse at love, through a haunted memory
Ship of dreams come and ease my mind Make me believe I never left that girl behind Gypsy wind, take a message back for me Let her hear what I say
Meet me on the other side Please don't forget what we shared that night This lonely river's running deep and wide Say you'll meet me on the other side Say you'll meet me on the other side
(BRIDGE) A raging storm out on an empty sea A temptress born, on one night of ecstasy Now she's gone and I'm a lonely castaway Lonely castaway
Meet me on the other side Please don't forget what we shared that night This lonely river's running deep and wide Say you'll meet me on the other side Say you'll meet me on the other side
Broke down in a one horse town Tryin' to get the money up to get a ride I spent four days and a week's pay Tryin' to figure out how to get away and leave it behind Before I loose my mind
You know I can't wait to hit the interstate Put the peddle down and open up the gate
I was born in a high high wind I've been blowin' around ever since
I had good job punchin' the clock Making fourteen and a quarter in the union shop I liked the pay, but I couldn't stay I heard that highway callin' and I had to get away Ain't no roots On these cowboy boots
One night I took a ride And watched the city limits fading out of sight
I was born in a high high wind I've been blowin' around ever since
I travel light, rollin' through the night Got my top down, got my engine right
I was born in a high high wind I've been blowin' around ever since
Such a sad story Broken down and lonely Broken down to my last dime
No one I could turn to No where left to run to I was almost out of time
You were the only one that ever caught my eye You reached out and took my hand and suddenly I came alive
(CHORUS) Oh girl you found me just in time And I still can't believe you're mine Don't care that I'm a bit delirious I swear I'm gonna be just fine You saved me at the stroke of midnight Girl you found me just in time
It's only fare to warn you I'm so crazy for you Think I'm gonna loose control
'Cause every time you're with me Something in me breaks free Makes me want to rock and roll
Don't you know I will never ever let you get away Now that we are together I intend to find a way to make you stay
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(BRIDGE) Imagine a world where there is never any pain That's what you are for me You give me what I'm looking for You're all I want and so much more
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Who care if I'm a bit deciduous I know we're gonna be just fine You saved me at the stroke of midnight Girl you found me just in time
Big iron horses road across five yards bridge And me and my grandpa we watched from the ridge He knew all the trains, he'd call out each one Where they're goin' too, where they're comin' from
He'd say that one's from Memphis, bound for Moline An old '97, she's from New Orleans From New York to Denver, they'd roll through this town Now those days are gone But I still hear the sound of
(CHORUS) Big Iron Horses Steel turning round The sparks and the thunder As the wheels shook the ground The boxcars and the flatbeds And the whistles blowin' steam That was yesterday, now those big trains don't come anymore
Now the years passed so quickly And the world had moved on And change cast her shadow as they left one by one When the last train left Avon, no one was there Guess they didn't know, guess they didn't care
Now the station is empty and the train yard lies still And grandpa is gone now to St. Agnes hill Now I stand on the fire watch and as I close my eyes I see a little boy, and he's waving goodbye to the
Big Iron Horses Steel turning round The sparks and the thunder As the wheels shook the ground The boxcars and flatbeds And the whistles blowin' steam That was long ago, now they live on in my dreams
Big Iron Horses Steel turning round The sparks and the thunder As the wheels shook the ground The boxcars and the flatbeds And the whistles blowin' steam That was yesterday, now those big trains don't come anymore
Alone, on your own No way to see the end But here's where the road begins In time, I know you'll find Whatever you're searching for All of your dreams and more
But right now you're feeling Lost and lonely Crazy to even try Just listen to what You're heart keeps saying And don't ask the reason why
You've known, all along It won't be an easy climb But nothing can change your mind
And now, here you stand Your destiny's calling you You know what you've got to do.....
Don't you know I believe in you I'll be there when your dreams come true And wherever you go you'll always know My love is by your side
And whenever you're feeling Lost and lonely, crazy to even try Just listen to what your heart keeps saying And don't ask the reasons why Remember my love is there beside you You've got to believe it's true Just listen to what your heart keeps saying And don't ask the reasons why...
