You have a hold on me and I don't know why
Because you don't make me smile you make me cry
You hold me close and tell me lies
Whisper them like poison in my ear
I choose to believe them
But I can feel it running through my veins
Killing me from the inside
Its enough to drive me insane, All this pain
But iv moved on now
Found someone new
Someone to replace you
Someone to hold me tight
Keep me w...
I say things that I don't mean
You look at me like I'm crazy
And baby, sometimes I am
There's a side of me that wants to run
As soon as I get close enough to love,
To touch you with my hands
I start feelin smothered
Start to head for cover
'Cause the only thing I know about this feelin
Is eventually it hurts like hell
I know that pain a little too well
But I, I think you're different somehow
B...
Don't look in the mirror
Look inside your heart
You'll see a little clearer
Who you really are.
Just like a butterfly
About to spread its wings,
Open up your arms
And hold on tight to me.
I think you're beautiful, beautiful
I think you're one of a kind
And I'm thankful for everything, everything
You make me feel inside:
Beautiful.
You?re a ray of sunlight
Shining down on me
From the middle of ...
Two lovers on the beach
Sun tan lines and sandy feet
I remember laughin? so hard
I could barely breathe
There were never ending promises
No, forever, wasn?t ever said
I just knew when summer ended
So would we
It was almost too perfect
Too good to be true
Moving way too fast to last
It?d be over way too soon
It was how easy I was fallin?
How you made me feel
There wasn?t any way
That it could b...
Time passes by so quickly
but I guess I thought you'd be here forever
I never even got a chance to say goodbye
There's so many things to tell you
Left unsaid until now
chorus
Can you hear me when I talk to you
do the words I say ever make it through
Can you hear me when I talk to you
'cause Id give anything if I just knew
Every night I have the same dream
The one where you get to hold me
we la...
That sleepy old sun finally reared its head
Sneakin' through the window sayin' get out of bed
Kids are laughin' and playin' outside in the streets
I step out on my front porch in my bare feet
Drink my coffee, walk the dog
Then I'll stop by your house
'Cause I was hopin' maybe
We could just hang out
Chorus:
'Cause days like this are made for doing nothin'
But layin' around soakin' up your lovin...
So hard to know the reasons
It's hard to know the truth
When it's all over
Every time I look back
I just get more confused
So I replay every kiss and
Every clue I might have missed
Didn't I make you happy?
Didn't I get inside your heart?
Didn't I make you love me?
Didn't I, didn't I now baby?
I turn my world upside down
I turned myself inside out
But I still lost you
Didn't I, didn't I?
Why do...
This ain?t the first time
You?ve fallen in love
With your heart wide open
Feeling just like a fool
Knowing that
You?re the only one left
Holding on
He broke your heart
You can?t cry hard enough
But you?re not the only one
Everybody loves someone
Everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody says they?ll never fall again
But everybody does
How many times have you said he?s the one
And found out that he w...
You?re no Casanova,
You?re no poet
We both know it
You don?t have a
Silver tongued way,
Of speaking from your heart.
Your comfort zone?s on shaky ground
You feel like a stranger to your own mouth
But come on baby now
If you wanna spit it out
I know what you?re trying to say
But you stutter then you turn away
Your words get twisted, tangled up and turned around
You don?t have to say a thing
It?...
So empty and cold inside
Too strong to feel
Too weak to cry
Empty inside
Nothing left
And the daylight is fading
Just for a short time then I'll be back
To hold you hand and whisper that
I love you softly in your ear
To hold you tightly throughout the year
Until the summer when I leave
All the sunshine makes me greave
For all the things we used to do
All my love remains with you
So empty and c...
Tuesday, I was
Telling Lisa I
Finally got over you
Maybe it?s time I
Met that guy she wants to
Introduce me to
That?s when I heard our song
Somewhere in that restaurant
And there it was right out of the blue
Just another old time feeling
A scar I thought was healing
Every time your memory breaks in
And you?re back under my skin,
It hurts all over again
Spent the weekend
Throwing out old things...
Take a deep breath
Let the tears fall down
What I should?ve said
It doesn?t matter now
The moment is gone
Yeah, I can?t get it back
Unless I turn back the clock
I know I can?t do that
It?s over and done
There?s no rewinding?
I?ve got to put it all behind me
I?m trying?
To see the sun rising up
Coming up over the mountain
It?s shining? it?s blinding
On the other side of your goodbye
So I can?t ...
I don?t listen to the rain fallin?
I don?t think about what might?ve been
I don?t take out your pictures anymore
Or think about us back then
I don?t wish the night would disappear
I don?t listen to that song
I don?t spend my time talkin? to Jesus
Asking Him what went wrong
I?m getting stronger everyday
I?ve changed in my own way
I?m not the girl I was
I wish you could see me now
I?m movin? on ...
I'm putting on your favorite dress
You know the one you love that really shows off my legs
Gonna march downtown right into your favorite place
And that little blonde, well she better not get in my way
'Cause I'm on a mission
I'm gonna get you back
It won't take long, it'll happen fast
You might as well just face the fact
I'm gonna get you back
It's kinda crowded in here tonight
You've got your...
Imitation leather, pink Naugahyde
Two inch tear down the left-hand side
Came from daddy's pocketknife, that wasn't my fault
Moved along with us everywhere we went
No matter where we lived it always fit it
Kinda like our next of kin, if that chair could talk
My little brother, Billy, broke his left hand
Jumpin' off the arm like superman
With my grandma's old red Afghan tied around his neck
It's...
I?ve been giving you the green light, all night
What?s the deal with the shy boy attitude?
You?ve been coming on so strong, now you gonna hold back and play it cool
Boy if you?re trying to read my mind
Read my lips, now?s the time
If you really want to,
Baby I?m in
Stop hintin? and haulin?
Give me that first kiss
Fallin? in love ain?t hard to do
If you really want to
It?s all right if you?re a...
HERE YOU GO AGAIN CRYING WOLF, TALKING TRASH
STRADDLIN' THE FENCE
ALWAYS LOOKIN FOR THE GREENER GRASS
NEVER SATISFIED
IF YOU REALLY WANT TO GO, GO AHEAD AND WALK OUT
DON'T LET THE FRONT DOOR HIT YOU WHERE IT COUNTS
BABY, BYE-BYE
CHORUS
IF YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE ME, BABY
IF YOU'RE GONNA GO, STAY GONE
IF YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE ME, BABY
YOU BETTER LEAVE ME ALONE
PICKING UP THE WELCOME MAT, FLIPPING OFF T...
Gotta get outta bed
I gotta clear my head
Get up, get dressed,
pick up this mess I call my life
still gotta go to work
even if it hurts
that?s it, you?re gone
and life goes on
and it?s almost more than I can take
my heart breaks.
Love is an empty shell
And I?m just not myself
Oh why did you have to fall outta love with me
Now, I gotta start all over
Oh but how do I start all over when I don?t ...
You love him, and he loves her
She?s got her eye on a boy at work
Then there?s that guy, from down the street
Who asks you out a couple times a week
And he?s cute, yeah
Into you, yeah
But you want what you don?t have
So you won?t have nothing in the end
Oh why does it have to be
Love, or the lack there of
Either it?s too much
Or it?s not enough
Sometimes it?s hard to let it go
Sometimes it?s j...
Floorboard's filled with baby toys
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee cups
Drivin' through the rain with no radio
Tryin' not to wake her up
Cell phone says, "Low battery"
God, what if I break down?
I'm just lookin' for an exit with a lotta lights
A safe little interstate town
Just a cheap hotel
With a single bed
And cable TV
Is good enough for me an' Emily
Some day, when she's old enough
She's ...
Apartment 56
Is empty now above me
Pretty little Caroline got married
I heard it was a beautiful day
Her daddy gave his baby away
Two doors down the hall
I can hear it through the walls
Sounds like a pretty good party going on
Music?s just a little too loud
But hey I used to be a part of that crowd
I?m just grown out of it now
Everyday I?m here day in day out I live I eat I breathe I sleep
We ...
Hey Tony, won?t you pour me another glass of wine?
Yeah, I think I might
Stay awhile tonight
I could always take a taxi home
It?s not that far at all, I might even walk,
It?s a nice night?
Na, Na, Na, Na, , yeah?
David who? He?s a thing of the past, I don?t talk about him
He met some artsy chick, and I haven?t seen him since
Maryann? She?s doing great; she might stop by in a little while
I kne...
Remember,
How he told you
You were stupid
How he couldn?t even look at you anymore
Remember,
How he told you
You were crazy
How he got out of the car and slammed the door.
He said, ?You can?t do anything right.
Why you gotta make me so mad?
Just get out of my sight.?
Remember that
When it?s 3am
And he?s at your door
And he wants you back
And he?s beggin? for
Forgiveness
Remember that
When your...
Being with you
Not something I choose to do
It's something I need
Need to be ok
You're what's keeping me alive
You're like a drug im hooked on
Baby I need another fix X2
You're what I want
You're what I feel
You're who I am
And as the pain you cause me
Begins to feel like pleasure
That's when I know
That's when I know
I know it's over
Iv fell of the track
Will I ever get back?
Do I want to?
Do...
Remember the song you wrote for me
It was stuck in my head and drove me crazy
It used to be you got to me
I?m getting over it baby
Throw your pictures in the trash
Leave your memory in the past
That?s not where I?m at
And I ain?t going back
No more sleepless midnights
No more thinking I might
Get in the car
Drive my broken heart
Down your street and cry
I?m so much stronger
Baby I?m no longer
...
Shame on me for what I'm thinking
Shame on you for making me think
Shame on me for what I'm dreaming
Shame on you for being in my dreams
Blame it on me, I can't quit smiling
Blame it on you and your smiling face
Blame it on me, I can't stop looking
Blame it on you for looking that way
Ain't no point in pointin' fingers
There's enough blame to go around
Tell me since when were there ever two dr...
She gets in from work, takes off her coat
Sits down hard and lights a smoke, slips off her shoes
She's thinking just how nice it be
To have someone to rub her feet, and just to talk to
And mama, she don't understand
Why she can't seem to find a man
She says, "Are you even tryin'?"
Oh, but it's true what they say about good men
They're either gay, married or just want to be friends
Makes a girl...
There's two trees in Becky Hill's front yard,
one big, and one small
That big oak's been there for ages
and they planted that willow last fall
He bought it for their anniversary,
so they could watch it grow like their love
Well each day she looks out the window,
to see it not growing that much.
And she cries like that weeping willow,
every time the wind starts to blow
One of these days she's g...
For all the lonely nights,
All the tears I?ve cried
All the things you said
All the times you lied
Thank you, Thank you
For the crack in my heart
That took forever to heal
Now there?s no scar,
No pain left to feel
Thank you, Thank you
You left me with no choice but moving on
Had to pick myself up
When you knocked my heart down
Took all of my strength
To get up off the ground
I never thought I ...
Hey what?s the story with that look in your eye
The one that says we?re more than friends tonight
I?ve never seen it before
Now it?s hard to ignore
All of a sudden I?ve got nothin? to say
But I can?t wipe this silly smile off my face
I never would?ve guessed
I would fall for you like this
All this time we?ve been tryin? to fight it
Now it?s time to give in
There?s no way around it
No denyin? w...
We were way too young a couple of crazy kids
They said it was a fairy-tale land we were livin' in
Lookin' back you know we were pretty green
But aren't you glad we were smart enough to be that naive
Steppin' out on the limb
Just think if we had listened to them
We'd never danced under the stars in Colorado
Or took that drive across the Rio Grande
We'd never laid eyes on that California sunset
...
I've wished a million wishes on a big empty sky
And I've spent too many endless nights alone
Wondering if I was broken and, and why everything felt so wrong
And where do I belong
I see beyond the end of time when I look into your eyes
It's so much bigger than this life and everything's right
I feel so safe, safe as a child in your arms
This is where I belong
I've seen my share of troubles
Oh, ...
I?m a little apprehensive
You say you can?t see it
You can feel it
When you hold me in your arms
I?m way too indecisive
I can blow it in a moment
Or I can let go of my doubt
Turn it all around
I?m not afraid of giving my heart away
Of lovin? a man
I ain?t a fan of playin it safe
I wanna jump right in
I wanna take a chance
You?ve gotta understand
I?m not afraid of fallin
I?m just scared of wher...
It?s so easy to be lonely in a love this big
Maybe I work too much to give you what I think you want
Especially when you feel like you?re the only one who gives
It don?t take much for me, just a smile from you when I come home
I miss you, I miss us
I don?t know what else I can do
I don?t know how to get through to you
Somebody?s always gotta be mad
Somebody?s always gotta be hurt
And somebody?...
