from Patty Loveless - Keep Your Distance (2005)
Oh, if I cross your path again
Who knows where or who knows when On some mountain without number On some highway without end Don't grasp my hand and say 'Fate has brought you here today' Oh, fate is only foolin' with us, friend [Chorus] Keep your distance Keep your distance Oh, when I feel you close to me What can I do but fall Keep your distance Keep your distance Oh, with us it must be all or none at all (Oh, with us it must be all or none at all) Oh, it's a desperate game we play Throw our souls, our lives, away On wounds that can't be mended And debts that can't be paid Oh, I played, and I got stung Now I'm biting back my tongue And sweepin' out the footprints where I strayed [Chorus] Keep your distance (keep your distance, keep your distance) Oh, keep your distance (keep your distance) |

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. The stars in the sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay. The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes. I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh. Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in thy tender care, And take us to heaven, to live with Thee there. |

Silent night, Holy night, All is calm, all is bright, 'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace. Silent night, Holy night, Shepherds quake at the sight, Glories stream from heaven afar, Heav'nly hosts sing Alleluia; Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born. Silent night, Holy night, Son of God, love's pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth, Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth. |

Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare Him room, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing. Joy to the world, the Savior reigns! Let men their songs employ; While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy. No more let sins and sorrows grow, Nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make His blessings flow Far as the curse is found, Far as the curse is found, Far as, far as, the curse is found. He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness, And wonders of His love, And wonders of His love, And wonders, wonders, of His love. |

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay In fields where they lay keeping their sheep On a cold winter's night that was so deep Nowell, Nowell Nowell, Nowell Born is the King of Israel They looked up and saw a star Shining in the East, beyond them far And to the earth, it gave great light And so it continued both day and night Nowell, Nowell Nowell, Nowell Born is the King of Israel The star drew nigh to the North-West O'er Bethlehem it took its rest And there it did, both stop and stay Right over the place where Jesus lay Nowell, Nowell Nowell, Nowell Born is the King of Israel (Last time) Nowell, Nowell Nowell, Nowell |

Christmas makes you feel emotional
It may bring parties or thoughts devotional Whatever happens or what may be Here is what Christmas time means to me City sidewalk, busy sidewalks Dressed in holiday style In the air there's a feeling of Christmas Children laughing, people passing Meeting smile after smile And on every street corner you'll hear Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them ring Soon it will be Christmas day City street lights, even stop lights Blink a bright red and green As the shoppers rush home with their treasures Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch This is Santa's big scene And above all this bustle you'll hear: Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them ring Soon it will be Christmas day |

O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary, And gathered all above, While mortlas sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth! And praises sing to God the King, And peace to men on earth. How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heav'n. No ear may hear His coming, But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him, still The dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem! Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin and enter in, Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Immanuel. |

Shining far through shadows dim Giving the light for those who long have gone Guiding the wise men on their way Unto the place where Jesus lay O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine on O beautiful star the hope of life Guiding the pilgrims through the night Over the mountains 'til the break of dawn Into the land of perfect day It will give out a lovely ray O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine on O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine upon us until the glory dawns Give us a lamp to light the way Unto the land of perfect day O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine on O beautiful star the hope of grace For the redeemed, the good and the blessed Yonder in glory when the crown is won Jesus is now the star divine Brighter and brighter He will shine O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine on O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine upon us until the glory dawns Give us a lamp to light the way Unto the land of perfect day O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine on O beautiful star of Bethlehem Shine on |

She's a little more than a child herself
Than the children of her own All her living's done for someone else The only life she's ever known All the dreams and desires that she had She had to put 'em all on hold While another young heart became an old soul River of life keeps rushing by She just rolls with the flow She's seen it all through world weary eyes She takes it like it comes and goes She's forgotten more about life and love Than most will ever know While another young heart became an old soul Laugh too little and you cry too much Way too long without that gentle touch Weight of the world resting down in your bones Pretty soon you've got an old soul, old soul, old soul Laugh too little and you cry too much Way too long without that gentle touch Weight of the world resting down in your bones Pretty soon you've got an old soul, old soul, old soul |

There's a troubled wind a blowin' through my crazy life I feel the chill begin, it's gonna be a long, long, long night I hear the thunder roll but I don't fear the lightning strike 'Cause deep inside I know I'm gonna make it through alright So let the walls come tumblin' down Bring on the last sunset I ain't moving to heartbreak town The party ain't over yet Yeah, let the devil do his worst But don't take any bets That life has finally quenched my thirst The party ain't over yet Not yet Every drop of rain that ever fell into my life Helps me ride this pain, they were a blessin' In disguise And I know in time this'll soon be yesterday Nothin' I can't climb, I've got the will to find the way So let the walls come tumblin' down Bring on the last sunset I ain't moving to heartbreak town The party ain't over yet Yeah, let the devil do his worst But don't take any bets That life has finally quenched my thirst The party ain't over yet Not yet So when the morning comes I'll do more than just survive I'll walk into the sun and live until I die So let the walls come tumblin' down Bring on the last sunset I ain't moving to heartbreak town The party ain't over yet Yeah, let the devil do his worst But don't take any bets That life has finally quenched my thirst The party ain't over yet Not yet Hey, hey, the party ain't over yet No, no, the party ain't over yet ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By DAVID, JOHN <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

Love, love's a chameleon.
Makes one-in-a-million feel like to much of the same. But leave, leave it behind you. And love will remind you. It was only you that changed. Oh I'd give all my dreams. Give up my home and everything I've ever known to have you back again. To have you back again, to have you back again. I'd stand in the rain, no place to hide. Drown in my shame, swallow my pride. To have you back again, to have you back again. Time, time is a river. Flowing forever, away from the sound of your heart. Only you can break this silence, whisper forgiveness. Let me back in your arms again. Oh I'd give all my dreams. Give up my home and everything I've ever known to have you back again. To have you back again, to have you back again. I'd stand in the rain, no place to hide. Drown in my shame, swallow my pride. To have you back again, to have you back again. And I know I never loved you like you needed to be loved. But I know that I could learn to if we both had faith enough. Oh I'd give all my dreams. Give up my home and everything I've ever known to have you back again. To have you back again, to have you back again. I'd stand in the rain, no place to hide. Drown in my shame, swallow my pride. To have you back again, to have you back again. |

Frost on the window pane Trees are green, bees are hummin' But I'm freezing just the same Can't put my finger on it Where did we lose the flame We'll both end up broken-hearted If e don't find that fire again Lately we've been missin' something And love is wearing at the seams And you say baby, awe, it ain't nothing And that's exactly what I mean Come every winter season Most birds they fly away It's warm down south, they got no reason Why they should want t stay When we take love for granted We wind up empty handed Love is wearing at the seams And you say baby, awe, it ain't nothing And that's exactly what I mean Baby, turn off the TV Come here and hold me tight A little heat is all that we need To bring love back to life Maybe we've been missin' something And love is wearing at the seams And you say baby, awe, it ain't nothing And that's exactly what I mean Oh, that's exactly what I mean |

It's a long way off from where
I should be going And everytime I hate to leave your side And now when I return there's something missin When I'm gone you don't seem to miss me Now life's so fast And everything is changing And if your changeing too Then I don't blame you I remember how you used to kiss me But when I'm gone you don't seem to miss me I'm going fast I wonder why I'm running fast to get home I just can't wait to see your face But you don't seem to miss me No one can take away The things you've given And all the good we've had along together There was a time when you could not resist me Now I'm gone you don't seem to miss me I'm going fast I wonder why I'm running fast to get home I just can't wait to see your face But you don't seem to miss me I just can't wait to see your face But you don't seem to miss me |

I remember this town with a love by my side
And a peace seldom felt in this day and time And it gets melancholy every now and again When you let your mind go and it drifts way back when Life plays it's tricks, some cruel but fair And even a fool can pretend they don't care When there's too many memories for one heart to hold Once a future so bright now seems so distant and cold And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old When there's too many memories for one heart to hold There are those moments and they just never fade The look in his eyes and the way the light played God moved in that moment and the angels all cried And they gave you a memory that you have till you die And the lessons you learn and you don't forget What makes you grow old is replacing hope with regret When there's too many memories for one heart to hold Once a future so bright now seems so distant and cold And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old When there's too many memories for one heart to hold When there's too many memories for one heart to hold Once a future so bright now seems so distant and cold And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old When there's too many memories for one heart to hold |

Never mind the struggle
Never mind these tears I cry Through it all I will stay humble As I keep a watchful eye For that sweeter change of fortune That's closer now than it's been Where the memories that haunt me Are gonna someday be my friend When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end On some crazy river But I still have control And I will not surrender I'll stay true to heart and soul There's a sea of love awaiting Down at the river's end There I'll drown my sorrows And there I'll live again When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end When that long stretch of lonesome finally comes to an end My heart belonging to someone It'll never be longing again And the shadows that have dogged me since I can't remember when Finally give quarter To the sunlight on my skin When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end And the shadows that have dogged me since I can't remember when Finally give quarter to the sunlight on my skin When that long stretch of lonesome When that long stretch of lonesome When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end |

Can you hear it cross the valley
Can you hear that mournful sound I'm riding rails of silver Going to where I'm bound High above the fields of clover On a lazy, hot July When I get to where I'm going I'll hold my head up high I will roll across these mountains I will take the last train out Riding rails of silver Going to where I'm bound Roses, dust and ashes Throw them where I lay And if by chance you see me There'll be no sorrow on my face For I will see the beauty I only wish that you could see I'll leave my body weakened I'll leave my soul to wander free, so free So if you should see a diamond Fall down from the sky Its just a teardrop From the corner of my eye As good-bye, as I fly To where I'm bound |

(Kostas/Bobby Boyd/Don Mealer) There's just no way of goin' back to change what's come and gone But if I could go back in time I'd undo what you've done I wouldn't look into your eyes and go completely blonde Or listen to your pretty words and leave my heart behind. If heartache were treasures and pain could be sold If dreams were made of silver promises of gold Tear drops were diamonds measured in lies I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive. Next time I listen to my friends take their advice to heart And avoid all of this misery I could of ended from the start But fools in love don't listen they don't know right from wrong They see just what they wanna see and miss it when its gone If heartaches were treasure and pain could be sold if dreams were made of Silver promises of gold tear drops were diamonds measured in lies I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive. |

I read about a man one day He wasted not his time away He prayed to God Every morning noon and night He cared not for the things avail But trusted one who never fails Oh, Daniel prayed Each morning, noon and night Oh Daniel served his living God While upon the earth he trod He prayed to God each morning, noon and night He cared not for the king's decrees But trusted God to set him free Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night They locked him in the lions den Because he could not honor men But he prayed to God Every morning, noon and night The jaws were locked, it made him shout And god soon brought him safely out Oh Daniel prayed Every morning, noon and night Oh Daniel served his living God While upon the earth he trod He prayed to God each morning, noon and night He cared not for the king's decrees But trusted God to set him free Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night Now brother let us watch and pray Like Daniel did from day to day He prayed to God Every morning, noon and night We too can gladly dare and do And pray to God he'll see us through Oh, Daniel prayed Every morning, noon and night Oh Daniel served his living God While upon the earth he trod He prayed to God each morning, noon and night He cared not for the king's decrees But trusted God to set him free Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night |

One we made sometime ago When they ask who's in the picture with me I say, just someone I used to know Just someone I used to spend some time with Just a flame that's lost its glow I don't tell them, how many nights I cry without you I say, just someone I used to know Just someone I used to run around with Just a friend from long ago But, I don't tell them, how lost I am without you I say, just someone I used to know I say, just someone I used to know |

Today, an old heartache came calling
An old flame I thought died out like some falling star Instead it's rekindling some embers That may start an out-of-control ragin' fire That look in your eyes brings bad memories You still have that same smile that once won my heart The bittersweet feelings still linger That once fueled my out-of-control ragin' fire That out-of-control ragin' fire Pain has no memory when you burn with desire The flames grow higher and higher Till we've reached an out-of-control ragin' fire Inside the passion is burning It's too late to stop what we've started tonight How can we resist this temptation To start an out-of-control ragin' fire? That out-of-control ragin' fire Pain has no memory when you burn with desire The flames grow higher and higher Till we've reached an out-of-control ragin' fire Yes, we've reached an out-of-control ragin' fire |

He sits all alone in his easy chair
Staring back on all his lost yesterdays Long before he encountered the bottle And the demons that drove her away In his hand he is holding her photograph Her image all tear-stained and worn Tonight he's embracing reality And he curses the day he was born And the darkness still echoes her warning You can't have two loves in your life Now the things that still haunt him Till the day he dies Is the smell of cheap whiskey And the sound of goodbye Since the hour she left he's been sober And each breath that he draws makes him think Of the love of his life lost forever When he traded her love for a drink And the darkness still echoes her warning You can't have two loves in your life Now the things that still haunt him Till the day he dies Is the smell of cheap whiskey And the sound of goodbye And the darkness still echoes her warning You can't have two loves in your life Now the things that still haunt him Till the day he dies Is the smell of cheap whiskey And the sound of goodbye |

She loved him most when his eyes were gray
The palest shade of a winter day They filled her with a raging fire And a bittersweet desire She shined for him like candlelight That softly beckons in the night But he said no right to her face Then simply turned and walked away [Chorus:] All Heaven watched from way on high True love given and denied And while her heart was broke and bleeding Sorrowful angels wept into their wings She wore him like a lock and chain Only in dreams she spoke his name By day it slipped upon her tongue The taste of unrequited love Now her hair is long and gray The palest shade of a winter day She never took a ring of gold She swears she never loved a soul [Chorus:] Sorrowful angels wept into their wings She loved him most when his eyes were gray |

I am a soul of constant sorrow I've seen trouble all my days I bid farewell to east Kentucky The place where I was born and raised For many a year I have struggled No pleasure here on Earth I've found All through this world I'm bound to wander There is no one to help me now You can bury me in some deep valley For many a year in peace I'll lay Then you may learn to love another While I am sleeping in my grave It's fare-you-well my one true lover I never 'spect to see you again But there's one promise that is given I'll meet you in God's golden land |

In the deep dark hills of eastern Kentucky
That's the place where I trace my bloodline And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone "You'll never leave Harlan alive" Oh, my grandfather's dad crossed the Cumberland Mountains Where he took a pretty girl to be his bride Said, "Won't you walk with me, out of the mouth of this holler or we'll never leave Harlan alive" Where the sun comes up about ten in the mornin' And the sun goes down about three in the day And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away No one ever knew there was coal in them mountains Till a man from the northeast arrived Wavin' hundred dollar bills, said, "I'll pay you for your minerals" But he never left Harlan alive Grandma sold out cheap and they moved out west of Pineville To a farm where Big Richland River winds And I bet they danced them a jig And they laughed and sang a new song "Who said we'd never leave Harlan alive" But the times they got hard and tobacco wasn't sellin' And old granddad knew what he'd do to survive He went and dug for Harlan coal And sent the money back to grandma But he never left Harlan alive Where the sun comes up about ten in the mornin' And the sun goes down about three in the day And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' And you spend your life diggin' coal from the bottom of your grave You'll never leave Harlan alive |

Almost nothing shakes me.
I'll admit tonight I'm scared, scared to death. All this talk of leavin', Walkin' away from love we've shared takes my breath. I could find the strength within myself. But I don't wanna be that strong. I don't wanna know that feeling, Of barely hangin on while my broken heart is healing. I know the hands of time would hold me until all the hurt is gone. I could make it on my own, But I don't wanna be that strong. I could hold my head up. I could keep the tears inside for a while. Fill the anxious days. Somehow face the lonely nights for a while. When I need to I could even force a smile. But I don't wanna be that srong. I don't wanna know that feeling, Of barely hanging on while my broken heart is healing. I know the hands of time would hold me until all my hurt is gone. I could make it on my own, But I don't wanna be that strong. |

He sits on a park bench and stares into space.
Thinking of his bright future that has now been erased. He once loved a woman whose love wasn't true. Now all that remains is a born-again fool. Mistakes, he's made many in his passage of life. She was the first wrong he couldn't make right. She left him no reason. She left no excuse. All she left was the shell of a born-again fool. Believing that her love would be his salvation But faith in her heart proved to be his damnation. Another falsado. Another heart torn in two Oh there's no one as lost as a born-again fool. Well he gave all she asked for. She took all he had. She made him her puppet with no strings attatched. He did all she wanted but he never knew, She was only creating a born-again fool. Believing that her love would be his salvation. But faith in her heart proved to be his damnation. Another falsado. Another heart torn in two. Oh there's no one as lost as a born-again fool. He sits on a park bench still wondering why, As the whole world unnoticing passes him by Such a folorn conclusion that his life led him to. Betrayed and decieved he's a born-again fool. |

I guess the Lord will recognize him Without his overalls and mule And they all say he looks so natural But all I see's a cold dark hole I won't commit this day to memory That ain't the Grandpa that I know That ain't the Grandpa that I know Tractor never pulled his plough He walked and cursed and loved that ground His hand sowed each and every seed And he'd pray for rain and fight the weeds He'd pray for rain and fight the weeds He said, "This simple life, it suits me fine" Never dreamed beyond the county line Grandma was his boyhood bride He'll be there in her arms tonight He'll sleep there in her arms tonight They've got him layin' there in pin stripes How'd they get him in that suit? I guess the Lord will recognize him Without his overalls and mule And they all say he looks so natural But all I see's a cold dark hole I won't commit this day to memory That ain't the Grandpa that I know They played a pretty organ number Swore it was his favorite tune But I know he preferred a fiddle Playin' Carroll County Blues They all say he looks so natural But all I see's a cold dark hole I won't commit this day to memory That ain't the Grandpa that I know That ain't the Grandpa that I know |

It wasn't meant to be When he walks, and he will You're gonna come to me When he lies, and he will When all is said and done When you cry, and you will You're gonna want to run So go ahead and do what you gotta do It's really not up to me But the day will come when you finally see Where you want to be Then you're gonna be back When you hurt, and you will Who's gonna sympathize Well he won't, but I will Then you'll realize So go ahead and do what you gotta do It's really not up to me But the day will come when you finally see Where you want to be Then you're gonna be back So go ahead and do what you gotta do It's really not up to me But the day will come when you finally see Where you want to be Then you're gonna be back You will I know you will You will I just know you will |

Way on past the boulevards out here underneath the stars
I've been flying past the houses farms and fields Leaving all I know back there rushing through the cold night air And holding on to nothin' but the wheel Staying clear of the interstate I'm seeking out those old two lanes Trying to explain the way I feel Till all at once it's half past three and it's down to just the trucks and me And I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel I've been trying to drive you off my mind Maybe that way baby I can leave it all behind And 41 goes on and on and the lights go winding in the dawn And the sky's the color now of polished steel And the only thing I know for sure is if you don't want me anymore Then I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel And the only thing I know for sure... I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel |

She's twistin' the ring on her finger
She's watchin' the clock on the wall She's hopin' when it finally hits him He's wrong He'll come to his senses And give her a call Across town he's in a hotel room He can't keep his eyes off the phone He's thinking that soon she'll break down and call To tell him she's sorry And beg him back home There's a lonesome fool waiting On each end of the line There's a measure of blame on both sides Until each heart is willing There's no hope at all 'Cause love builds the bridges But pride builds the walls The longer they wait on each other The harder it gets to give in They're too proud to see They're just one call away From putting their love back Together again There's a lonesome fool waiting On each end of the line There's a measure of blame on both sides Until each heart is willing There's no hope at all 'Cause love builds the bridges But pride builds the walls Until each heart is willing There's no hope at all 'Cause love builds the bridges But pride builds the walls |

Most people use money to measure success
The big car they're drivin' and the way that they dress If there's someone who loves you you're richer by far You don't know how lucky you are Society's pages she never may grace Or dress in fine garments of satin and lace But if comfort awaits you in the warmth of her arms You don't know how lucky you are Just under the surface lie riches untold More precious than diamonds more treasured than gold Priceless is true love in a good woman's heart You don't know how lucky you are Just under the surface lie riches untold More precious than diamonds more treasured than gold Priceless is true love in a good woman's heart You don't know how lucky you are Priceless is true love in a good woman's heart You don't know how lucky you are |

What's a broken heart, it ain't no big deal
It's not what I have, it's only what I feel I should laugh it off, I should never cry It's not meant to live or die by Once I learn to let him go, the healing has to start It's temporary pain, I'll live to love again So what's a broken heart I just have to stop, and look at who I am I was just a fool, he was just a man I can walk away, never looking back All his tender lies are hard facts Compared to those who have no hope, Their lives so cold and hard All my misery is a raindrop in the sea Yeah, what's a broken heart What's a broken heart With faith and time, I know I'll find my world is not that dark It's temporary pain, I'll live to love again So what's a broken heart What's a broken heart |

Through the back window of our '59 wagon
I watched my best friend Jamie slipping further away I kept on waving till I couldn't see her And through my tears I asked again why we couldn't stay Mama whispered softly time will ease your pain Life's about changing nothing ever stays the same And she said how can I help you to say goodbye it's okay to hurt and it's okay to cry Come let me hold you and I will try how can I help you to say goodbye I sat on our bed he packed his suitcase I held a picture of our wedding day His hands were trembling we both were crying He kissed me gently and then he quickly walked away I called up mama and she said time will ease your pain Life's about changing nothing ever stays the same She said how can I help you... Sitting with mama alone in her bedroom She opened her eyes and then squeezed my hand She said I have to go now my time here is over And with her final words she tried to help me understand Mama whispered softly... |

In the middle of the night Everything rhymed, but it didn't feel quite right Anyway, that's all we need Is another modern day Shakespeare All I know is I get chills Whenever you're standing there You're so cool Cool as ice cream in the summertime Cool as James Dean with a twist of lime You're so fine and I dig you hard. They wouldn't print it in a Hallmark card It's so high school Yeah, You're so cool I don't know what's happening, but it's a silly thing I want to wear your sweater I want to wear your ring Ain't it funny what love Can make a grown woman do I've been telling my friend I gotta big crush on you You're so cool Cool as Dylan back in '69 Cool as James Dean with a twist of lime You're so fine and I dig you hard Lovesick dreaming in the backyard They wouldn't print it in a Hallmark card It's so high school Yeah, You're so cool It sounds so ordinary, yeah In my vocabulary So I might as well say you roar Yeah baby, you're so cool Cool as Dylan back in '69 Rag top mustang in the summertime You're so fine and I dig you hard Lovesick dreaming in the backyard They wouldn't print it in a Hallmark card It's so high school Yeah, You're so cool Oh how does it feel to be so cool Yeah, yeah rag top Mustang in the summertime Yeah, You're so fine You roar, You're so cool ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BERG, MATRACA MARIA/JOHNSON, CAROLYN DAWN <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

[Chorus]
In every life there comes a love like this To blind with trust to know the Judas kiss And as sure as your love changes in the wind My heart will never break this way again Many times I'll walk alone here on the street But my tears will never taste so bittersweet Knowing that someday this pain will end And my heart will never break this way again Oh, we hold on We hold on to moments just like these The painful memories will make you strong And it's too bad So sad when your innocence is gone It's wasted on the ones that do you wrong And I know that I will love again someday But never quite enough, that's how I'll pay Loving you too much, that was my sin And my heart will never break this way again. Oh, we hold on We hold on to moments just like these The painful memories will make you strong And it's too bad So sad when your innocence is gone It's wasted on the ones that do you wrong [Chorus] No, my heart will never break this way again |

In pieces on the ground My spirit's cracked and crumbled My world's been crashing down The weight upon my shoulders Got so heavy they just gave in Till I could not lift my head up To face another day again Let a ray of hope come shining So I may look up at the sky And see a glimpse of tomorrow Where I'm standing in the light Let me climb upon a hilltop Healing hands can touch me now They will mend this broken body In pieces on the ground The human heart's a fragile thing It shatters just like glass Gather up all of these splinters Crush them into grains of sand So the wind may scatter them Toward the angels looking down They will mend this broken body In pieces on the ground Then a ray of hope came shining When I looked into your eyes I saw all of my tomorrows And we're standing in the light We are high upon a hilltop Healing hands touching me and Mending this broken body In pieces on the ground |

You're still smiling So we must've done something right Don't feel guilty Because you turned to me, last night We ain't done nothin' wrong We've just been lonely too long No, we ain't done nothin' wrong We've just been lonely too long It's only natural When you've been too long in the dark To look for comfort And to warm yourself by the fire We're just afraid That we might get our fingers burned But we ain't done nothin' wrong We've just been lonely too long No, we ain't done nothin' wrong We've just been lonely too long Nothing's wrong that can't be cured With a new love All you need is someone like me to Be sure of, to be your love I'll be waiting Standing right outside your heart And I'll be watching For the slightest sign of a spark And I'll be here If you should want to turn to me 'Cause we ain't done nothin' wrong We've just been lonely too long No, we ain't done nothin' wrong We've just been lonely too long We ain't done nothin' wrong We've both been lonely too long Oh, just been lonely too long Both been lonely too long |

The car is runnin' and your bags are packed, I guess that says it all
Your head is hangin' and you look real sad, maybe you should've called You say you think you need a brand-new start You're really sorry that you broke my heart Well, I'm not really fallin' apart, but baby You can feel bad if it makes you feel better Picture me cryin' readin' all your love letters Walkin' around in your old sweaters, baby You can feel bad if it makes you feel better Maybe I'll go out tonight, yeah, I'll paint the town And maybe I'll run into you, while I'm runnin' 'round There's a good chance I'll be alone An even better one that you won't When it's time for me to go home, baby You can feel bad if it makes you feel better Picture me cryin' readin' all your love letters Walkin' around in your old sweaters, baby You can feel bad if it makes you feel better If it makes you feel something Yeah, take another look at these tears I'm cryin' They're not fallin' on your shoulders, they're fallin' on mine Yeah, I've seen this comin' for a long, long time Now, I'll be just fine, oh You can feel bad if it makes you feel better And picture me cryin' readin' all your love letters Walkin' around in your old sweaters, baby You can feel bad if it makes you feel better You can feel bad if it makes you feel better And picture me cryin' readin' all your love letters Walkin' around in your old sweaters, baby You can feel bad if it makes you feel better If it makes you feel something If it makes you feel better |

I gave up cigarettes, I haven't had to light one yet
And it's been a year since I stopped The same goes for alcohol, I don't touch the stuff at all And I used to drink 'til I dropped Those were tough, this is easy And it feels so good to say Forgetting you is not that hard to do I've done it a thousand times a day Friends said it'd take some time to get you off my mind They thought I'd never let you go Well, I guess I proved them wrong, one more bad habit gone Just like the whiskey and the smokes Those were tough, this is easy Well, I'm all right, yeah, I'm okay Forgetting you is not that hard to do I've done it a thousand times a day I've given you up for good just like I said I would The night you walked away Forgetting you is not that hard to do I've done it a thousand times a day Yes, I've done it a thousand times a day |

You should have seen it coming, now it's too late
She bought the half-price ticket on the midnight train You wouldn't understand 'cause you lie and cheat So she wrote it out in lipstick on your satin sheets She drew a broken heart She drew a broken heart Torn right down the middle in a red jagged line She drew a broken heart and put your name inside She had to draw you a picture to make it sink in Revlon Rose was her poison pin For God's gift to women you ain't got a clue That red broken heart belongs to you She drew a broken heart She drew a broken heart It ain't no Cupid's Arrow, it ain't no Valentine She drew a broken heart and put your name inside No lovesick word's gonna bring her back The buck stops here, buddy, that's a fact No matter who's right, no matter who's wrong Anyway you cut it, she's gone She drew a broken heart She drew a broken heart Torn right down the middle in a red jagged line She drew a broken heart and put your name inside |

He brings her flowers they talk for hours
But he never really says what's in his heart The way he needs her, the way he wants her It's a miracle to feel that way at all Oh, I can't tear myself away From where the rose petals fall Down the path to yesterday I was lucky to feel that way at all The way he learned it, the way she turned it Beyond his wildest dreams to have earned it It was exciting everything riding On whether that one star would keep on shining Oh, I can't tear myself away From where the rose petals fall Down the path to yesterday I was lucky to feel that way at all Oh, I can't tear myself away From where the rose petals fall Down the path to yesterday I was lucky to feel that way at all The way he needs her The way he wants her It's a miracle to feel that way at all |

After all my lonely nights
Without an end in sight A morning shining bright for me awaits Where the sweetest times will last All's forgiven from the past Someday I will One day I know I will Someday I will lead the parade Though they've scattered through the years Old friends will gather near With nothing but the kindest words to say And the sweetest times will last All's forgiven from the past Someday I will One day I know I will Someday I will lead the parade And the sweetest times will last All's forgiven from the past Someday I will lead the parade |

Break us down by our elements and you might think he failed
We're not copper for one penny or even iron for one nail And a dollar would be plenty to buy twenty of us Until true love is added to these handfuls of dust Handful of dust, handful of dust Sums up the richest and poorest of us True love makes priceless the worthless Whenever it's added to a handful of dust However small though our worth may be when shared between two hearts Is even more than it would ever be, measured on its own apart And our half what it could be is now twice what it was When true love is added to these handfuls of dust Handful of dust, handful of dust Sums up the richest, poorest of us True love makes priceless the worthless Whenever it's added to a handful of dust Handful of dust, handful of dust Sums up the richest, poorest of us True love makes priceless the worthless Whenever it's added to a handful of dust |

Raindrops on the treetops
Waiting there to fall I know how they're feeling But I'm only, yes I'm only, halfway down Fighting with the devil Harder all the time Sinkin' to his level But I'm only, yes I'm only, halfway down Halfway down, just a getting started Yes I'm beginning on my journey now But I've only gotten halfway down Halfway down, just a little bit farther Well I believe you better catch me now 'Cause I'm only going halfway down Sippin' shallow water Sharks out for the kill Almost hittin' bottom But I'm only, yes I'm only, halfway down Halfway down, just a getting started Yes I'm beginning on my journey now But I've only gotten halfway down Halfway down, just a little bit farther Well I believe you better catch me now 'Cause I'm only going halfway down Yeah I hope you better catch me now 'Cause I'm only going halfway down Yes I'm only going halfway down Yes I'm only going halfway down |

I have climbed so many mountains
Just to reach the other side I near drowned myself in freedom Just to feed my foolish pride On my journey through the darkness I have finally seen the light I know no one's ever loved me Like you're loving me tonight There is something I must tell you I wonder if you'll understand How I found such worldly pleasures In the arms of other men You should never try to judge me We have both been wrong and right But I know no one's ever loved me Like you're loving me tonight God will save His fallen angels And their broken wings He'll mend When He draws their hearts together And they learn to love again All their sins will be forgiven In the twinkle of an eye All the saints rejoice in heaven When the fallen angels fly God will save His fallen angels And their broken wings He'll mend When He draws their hearts together And they learn to love again All their sins will be forgiven In the twinkle of an eye All the saints rejoice in heaven When the fallen angels fly When the fallen angels fly When the fallen angels fly All the saints rejoice in heaven When the fallen angels fly |

She left the car in the driveway
She left the key in the door She left the kids at her mama's And the laundry piled up on the floor She left her ring on the pillow Right where it wouldn't be missed She left a note in the kitchen Next to the grocery list It said, You don't even know who I am You left me a long time ago You don't even know who I am So what do you care if I go He left the ring on the pillow He left the clothes on the floor And he called her to say he was sorry But he couldn't remember what for So he said I've been doing some thinking I've been thinking that maybe you're right I go to work every morning And I come home to you every night And you don't even know who I am You left me a long time go You don't even know who I am So what do I care if you go ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By PETERS <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |

Being without you, baby, is drivin' me crazy
But the way we were was drivin' me insane The cure for a love-sick ill Don't come in a little pill I could use a shot of good time in my veins Woke up this mornin' with a bad case of Friday night fever I need a long-legged hunk of honey to cool my head I know a honky-tonk down the street To treat a pair of lifeless feet With a jukebox loud enough to wake the dead Feelin' good about feelin' bad These are the best gettin' over you tears I've ever shed Gonna get real toe and heel leave you like you're standin' still Dance you right outta my head Feelin' good about feelin' bad Don't ya worry your mind that you're worryin' mine any longer If your memory comes a-callin' I won't be home Well, it may seem cruel and crude But I'm changin' my attitude You'll be history in a sea of lost and gone Feelin' good about feelin' bad These are the best gettin' over you tears I've ever shed Gonna get real toe and heel leave you like you're standin' still Dance you right outta my head Feelin' good about feelin' bad Feelin' good about feelin' bad Feelin' good about feelin' bad |

Don't do it darlin'
Don't you dare look in there You said you didn't want to see me But you've been lookin' for me everywhere And you know that you're gonna find me If you keep on drinkin' fast 'Cause honey I'm right there waitin' on you At the bottom of your glass And here I am Here I am In the bourbon and the water That burn you just like a brand Here I am It ain't workin' darlin' Hard as you may try You keep hearin' the words you told me In everyone's goodbye And you know that you're just one step From another one being gone I know I've seen 'em all unravel I've been watchin' it all along And here I am Here I am In every lie you're hearin' That burn you just like a brand Here I am And honey, I got over you passin' me over A long time ago And my pride was stronger when I was younger Now I'd rather have you to know That here I am Here I am I still carry a flame for you Burnin' me like a brand Here I am |
