Close the door And leave the world behind you Open a window Listen to the breeze flow through the pines Take a deep breath What more can you do...
Chorus: Let the sun fall down All around you And let the night surround you In a blanket of starlight I'll whisper you a lullaby Let the sun fall down...
That old dark cloud Acts like he knows you Takes up to much time, Time you could be spending holding me And he can't have you now It's you and me here in this room Ohh Ohh...
Let the sun fall down All around you And let the night surround you In a blanket of starlight I'll whisper you a lullaby Let the sun fall down...
The world will keep on turning It'll all be there come morning So tonight...
Let the sun fall down All around you And let the night surround you In a blanket of starlight I'll whisper you a lullaby Let the sun fall down...
Ohh Ohh...
Let the sun fall down All around you And let the night surround you In a blanket of starlight I'll whisper you a lullaby Let the sun fall down...
We talked it out And we've had our say And we both agree we're better off this way Well, good for us We're so grown up And there's no hard feelings Sure, we'll keep in touch
Tell me why, tell me why Is it so hard to say goodbye Hard to say goodbye
Ah, it's no big deal Yeah, it's nothin' new It's just somethin'everybody runs into So hang up the phone And turn out the light
Sweet dreams, tomorrow it'll be alright
Then tell me why, tell me why Is it so hard to say goodbye Hard to say goodbye
Tell me why, ah, tell me why Is it so hard to say goodbye Hard to say goodbye Goodbye
In the midnight sun, watching colors run Bring back electric green When the morning comes, we'll be overdone Time for my favorite dream, uh, huh Bring back electric green
Time gets wasted running with the pack, go on Toss it out the window, try and get your money back Smoke 'em if you got 'em, bring along an extra pack Sunrise, sunset
In the midnight sun, watching colors run Bring back electric green When the morning comes, we'll be overdone Time for my favorite dream, uh, huh Bring back electric green
Fingerprints on broken glass That's what you get for looking back
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Here goes nothing, nothing to get buzzed about Take a little something, something that'll sort me out So what if it never did, doesn't mean it won't work now Sunrise, sunset
In the midnight sun, watching colors run Bring back electric green When the morning comes, we'll be overdone Time for my favorite dream, uh, huh Time for electric green
In the midnight sun, watching colors run Bring back electric green (In the midnight sun, watching colors run)
When the morning comes, we'll be overdone (Bring back electric green.) Time for my favorite dream, uh, huh (When the morning comes, we'll be overdone)
In the midnight sun, watching colors run (Time for my favorite dream, uh, huh) Bring back electric green (Aah) Bring back electric green (Aah)
Bring back electric green (Aah) Bring back electric green (Aah)
This love cannot be bought or sold It's timeless as a story often told Oh, and this love is never well behaved Makes me wanna testify Stand up, tell the world I'm saved
Oh, daughters of Jerusalem I have seen the day break And the shadows flee away
I'll break the chains of fear In the name of this love Laugh away the tears In the name of this love
And this love, it doesn't bow its head It don't need anybody's blessing And don't care what anybody says, oh
Oh, daughters of Jerusalem I have seen the day break And the shadows flee away
I'll break the chains of fear In the name of this love Laugh away the tears In the name of this love
Oh, daughters of Jerusalem I have seen the day break And the shadows flee away Ooh, ooh
I'll break the chains of fear In the name of this love Laugh away the tears In the name of this love Name of this love
Rise to the rhythm, rise to the call Come face the music, or be nowhere at all Go down to the river, no need to fear Your trials can be over, there are no judges here There are no judges here
Somewhere east of Eden Let there be no doubt No flaming swords of cherubim To keep you out
Rise to the rhythm, rise to the call Come face the music, or be nowhere at all Go down to the river, no need to fear Your trials can be over, there are no judges here There are no judges here
Come on back to Camptown Celebrate the news No need for a clamp-down Once you've paid your dues
Rise to the rhythm, rise to the call Come face the music, or be nowhere at all Go down to the river, no need to fear Your trials can be over, there are no judges here There are no judges here There are no judges here
Tell me what you're gonna do, and I'll believe you once again Don't let this be the battle that you're afraid to win Sit there with your visions, your tonic and your gin Tattoo scenes of paradise all over my skin
And I'll take the fall, you take the ride I'll take the hit, you let it slide Reel me in, reel me in Reel me in, reel me in
I'm still in love, I'm still in fear, there's something in your eyes I don't know why they're so intense when you intend to lie L could say this is the last time, meaning every word Why give into reason when love is so absurd
I'll take the fall, you take the ride I'll take the hit, and you let it slide Reel me in, reel me in Reel me in, reel me in
One, two
And I'll take the fall, you take the ride I'll take the hit, and you let it slide Reel me in, reel me in Reel me in, reel me in
Well, it's not hard to see Anyone who looks at me Knows I am just a rolling stone Never landing anyplace to call my own To call my own
Well, it seems like so long ago But it really ain't you know I started out a crazy kid Miracle I made it through the things I did The things I did
Someday I'll go where there ain't no rain or snow 혩Til then, I travel alone And I make my bed with the stars above my head And dream of a place called home
I had a chance to settle down Get a job and live in town Work in some old factory I never liked the foreman standing over me Over me
Oh I혪d rather walk a winding road Rather know the things I know See the world with my own eyes No regrets, no looking back, no goodbyes No goodbyes
Someday I'll go where there ain't no rain or snow 혩Til then, I travel alone And I make my bed with the stars above my head And I dream of a place called home
I left home with nothing but a few tears in my eyes Now I'm halfway down the interstate past Highway 99 It's just me and one good wiper blade up against the rain
And I still hear the echoes of those bitter words we said That could drive a million miles and never drive them from my head Those words we said
No matter how I try, I can't get far enough away Every sad song on my radio sounds like it's custom made By some devil on my shoulder that keeps whispering in my ear
And I still hear the echoes of those bitter words we said That could drive a million miles and never drive them from my head Those words that wounded like an arrow to the heart And keep me drivin', drivin'
And I still hear the echoes of those bitter words we said That could drive a million miles and never drive them from my head Those words we said Those words we said, we said
You've got a way about you I haven't laughed since he's been gone He was a sad song playing Over and over for too long And I loved him so much I was so sure of what we had That when he left me He really left me bad CHORUS: Good...good enough I'm feeling good...so good I'm feeling good enough to love again So good...back on the mend Oh (yeah) you make me feel good Good enough to love again I don't know how you do it But baby, I'm sure glad you did Even ol' what's-his-name Could never get to me like this You're like a good dream About the best I've ever had It turns out his leaving Really wasn't all that bad (repeat chorus twice) Oh you make me feel good Good enough to love again
Down in the valley of love there's a big ol' lonesome cave where all the broken hearts mourn the love they gave On coal black nights their tears are carried on the wind And wash you with the feeling that you'll never love again Oh, how the poison vines do wrap around your soul And drag you down a long dark path to the place where nothing grows It's cold and lonely and your only company Are the ever present voices singing love's lost melody If you've ever heard it you know there's no sadder sound Than love fading like a whistle on the last train leaving town 'Til all you hear are the echoes of love It's cold and lonely and your only company Are the ever present voices singing love's lost melody If you've ever heard it you know there's no sadder sound Than love fading like a whistle on the last train leaving town 'Til all you hear are the echoes All you hear are the echoes 'Til all you hear are the echoes of love
I let the porch light burn all night 'Till the early morning light But you never did come by And now you're calling me Just to say you need A little room to breathe
That's a lie you tell yourself so I Can't touch you That's a lie to shut me out but it's Just not true Can't you see you're not fooling me a bit Yeah, you can try to tell me you don't care But I know that's a lie
Well you never will be free If you let her memory Get all tangled up with me I'm sorry for your pain But I won't take the blame All women aren't the same
(Repeat Chorus)
You say you'd like to be alone You do just fine all on your own
I got tired of losing So I covered my tracks I left love behind me It was a thing of the past And I got back on me feet again With something new in my stride I was just telling my girlfriends yesterday How I was doing alright
I was living a good life None of that silly love stuff Then I went and fell for you Ain't that just my luck
I got a house in the country I got a garden that grows And I got nobody telling me "Hey, turn down that radio!" I made my life real simple A couple cats and me I don't get bored or lonely As long as there's somethin' on TV
