One in a million mama that's good enough for me And you can't make me stay here anyway now that I'm 18 With everything she had in a duffle bag she set out to show the world She was more then just a homecoming queen and daddy's little girl
In a cloud of dust on a Greyhound bus she crossed the Cook County line Slept all the way to Nashville,big dreams running through her mind She said sure as I'm breathing I'm gonna be a big someday Yeah,she was jumping right into the deep end on a leap of sweet blind faith
[Chorus] It's about hoping It's about dreaming It's about never not believing It's about taking a walk on the wire and never looking down It's about living instead of dying It's about spreading your wings and flying Yeah,yeah,yeah,it's all about trying
It's been six years since she left home and she hasn't made it big yet Oh but there's no second guessing baby,she's got no regrets She still works late shift down at the Greasy Spoon cafe When she brings you out your milkshake you just might hear her say
[Chorus]
It's not whether you win or lose It's getting in the game
[Chorus]
It's about hoping It's about dreaming It's about never not believing It's about taking a walk out on the wire and never looking down It's all about trying
You, what you do,you always find a way to make me fall in Love, deep in love,I'm reminded every time we touch you're
[Chorus] Still the sweetest dream I know Still the place I want to go Still the one thought on my mind After all this time you're still in my heart You're still in my heart
You, It's always been you,there's never been another that comes to you You, and the way you move me every time you first time baby
[Chorus]
Still want you, still need you, still living just to love you Still crave you, still breathe you, still give my whole world for you you're Still the star in my sky Still the real love in my life Still the beginning and the end I'd do it all all again,yeah you're
[Chorus]
Still want you, still need you, still living just to love you Still crave you, still need you, still breathe you, still give my whole world for you Still want you, still need you, still living just to love you Still crave you, still breathe you, still give my whole world for you
How can I bear to wake up and you're not there What will I do when I turn and reach for you I lay my tears on the windowsill I'll only cry till I get over you But how long will it take me Won't you save me
[Chorus] Stay just a little bit longer Till I'm a little bit stronger to take all this and Stay just a little more time Till I can find a way Please stay
Will I ever smile again when losing my best friend To wonder where,wonder how,wonder what you're doing One more night just before you break me Hold me safely
[Chorus]
So I'll be a big girl and close my eyes As you walk away don't you say goodbye God save me,please won't you
Another long lonely nights Wrestling with what he'd done and what's he might Do while she cries She's had enough,she's waking up and she decides She'd rather try to brave it on her own This hollow house has never been a home
[Chorus] Tired of living a life like that Giving a love she don't get back Lies as big as a Pontiac Rolling all over her Tired of the words that just won't stick She knows not to believe it No more hanging on to what will never be No more hanging on to what will never be
Straight down the line She misreads his every move each and every time And if love once was blind She's opened up her eyes to see the fading light She's been a prisoner of her emptiness Locked in a box of her own,loneliness
[Chorus]
She'd rather try to brave it on her own This hollow house has never been a home
I've seen it come and I've watched it go The ins and outs and the highs and lows Well I gave my heart and I paid the cost For the loves I made there were friends I lost At the point I'd almost had enough Like the morning sun you woke me up You held me close and you help me see Oh you made a believer out of me
[Chorus] Now I'm alright I've got you in my life And I've never felt love feel so right
It's a miracle and a mystery How the hands of fate brought you to me I had lost all hope,I had lost all faith With each kiss you loved my fear away
[Chorus]
Well it's good to feel and for once I know That I'll never have to worry about you letting go No matter where the road may lead As long as I've got you with me
I'll be alright I've got you in my life Now I'm alright And I've never felt so love feel so right Never felt love ever feel so right Never felt love ever feel so right Never felt love
