"Listen To Your Senses"

"Listen To Your Senses"



Look at me
And tell me
You don't love me
Take my hand and say
It can't be
Kiss me once and just
Before you walk away
Listen first to what
Your senses say

'Cause I can see me
Loving you forever
I can feel my arms
Around your life
I can taste your lips
Against my memory
Listen to your senses
What they have to say

Love can hurt
Love can scar you
The time just best
To turn away
But love can heal
And love can save you

Today is not like yesterday

I can see me
Loving you forever
I can feel my arms
Around your life
I can taste your lips
Against my memory
Listen to your senses
What they have to say

'Cause I can see me
Loving you forever
I can feel my arms
Around your life
I can taste your lips
Against my memory
Listen to your senses
What they have to say

Listen to your senses
What they have to say
I can see me
Loving you forever

"Little Bitty"

"Little Bitty"



Have a little love on a little honeymoon
You got a little dish and you got a little spoon
A little bitty house and a little bitty yard
A little bitty dog and a little bitty car.

Well, it's alright to be little bitty
A little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while.

A little bitty baby in a little bitty gown
It'll grow up in a little bitty town
A big yellow bus and little bitty books
It all started with a little bitty look.

Well, it's alright to be little bitty
A little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while.

(Yeeeaaahhhh)

You know you got a job and a little bitty check
A six pack of beer and television set
Little bitty world goes around and around
Little bit of silence and a little bit of sound.

A good ole boy and a pretty little girl
Start all over in a little bitty world
Little bitty plan and a little bitty dream
It's all part of a little bitty scheme.

It's alright to be little bitty
A little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while.

It's alright to be little bitty
A little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while.

(Whoooo)...

"Little Man"

"Little Man"



I remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk
Lookin' in windows at things I couldn't want
There's johnson's hardware and morgans jewelry
And the ol' Lee king's apothecary
They ware the little man
The little man

I go back now and the stores are empty
Except for an old coke sign dated 1950
Boarded up like they never existed
Or renovated and called historic districts
There goes the little man
There goes the little man

Now the court square's just a set of streets
That the people go round but they seldom think
Bout the little man that built this town
Before the big money shut em down
And killed the little man
Oh the little man

He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
The new stores came where you do it yourself
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
Forget the little man
Forget about that little man

He hung on there for a few more years
But he couldn't sell slurpees
And he wouldn't sell beer
Now the bank rents the station
To a man down the road
And they sell velvet Elvis and
Second-hand clothes
There goes little man
There goes another little man

Now the court square's just a set of streets
That the people go round but they seldom think
Bout the little man that built this town
Before the big money shut em down
And killed the little man
Oh the little man

Now the stores are lined up in a concrete strip
You can buy the whole world in just one trip
And save a penny cause it's jumbo size
They don't even realize
They'er killin' the little man
Oh the little man

Now the court square's just a set of streets
That the people go round but they seldom think
Bout the little man that built this town
Before the big money shut em down
And killed the little man
Oh the little man

It wasn't long ago when I was a child
An old black man came with his mule and his plow
He broke the ground where we grew our garden
Back before we'd all forgoten
about the little man
The little man
Long live the little man
God bless the little man

"Livin On Love"

"Livin On Love"



Two young people without a thing
Say some vows and spread their wings
Settle down with just what they need
Livin' on love

She don't care 'bout what's in style
She just likes the way he smiles
It takes more than marble and tile
Livin' on love

Livin' on love, buyin' on time
Without somebody nothing ain't worth a dime
Just like an old fashion story book rhyme
Livin' on love
It sounds simple, that's what you're thinkin'
But love can walk through fire without blinkin'
It doesn't take much when you get enough
Livin' on love

Two old people without a thing
Children gone but still they sing
Side by side in that front porch swing
Livin' on love

He can't see anymore
She can barely sweep the floor
Hand in hand they'll walk through that door
Just livin' on love

Livin' on love, buyin' on time
Without somebody nothing ain't worth a dime
Just like an old fashion story book rhyme
Livin' on love
It sounds simple that's what you're thinkin'
But love can walk through fire without blinkin'
It doesn't take much when you get enough
Livin' on love

No it doesn't take much when you get enough
Livin' on love

"Long Hard Road"

"Long Hard Road"


[Chorus:]
It's a long, hard road I'm traveling on
Seems forever I've been gone
Yeah, it's a long hard road I'm traveling on
Lord I need to find my way back home

I hear the voice my sweet momma called me
Telling me to change my ways
In my mind, I smell the dogwood blooming
Takes me back to yesterday

[Chorus]

I left behind the person that I once was
I changed for good and some for bad
I've wasted days and nights on love forgotten
I've traded happiness for sad

[Chorus]

I've felt the hurt of a broken heart inside me
I've felt the joy of love unchained
I've seen the rain wash away a mountain
Like tears have washed away my pain

[Chorus]

I've watched some loved ones dear to my heart dying
I've heard a newborn baby's cry
I've walked a path of glory and of darkness
I've felt the guilt of a senseless life

[Chorus]

Drank to forget and I've drank to remember
And I've drank for love and I've drank for hate
I've danced alone with a full moon up above me
Lighting the way to heaven's gate

[Chorus]

I've felt the love of Jesus shining on me
I've felt the devil's wicked ways
Prayed for forgiveness, prayed for redemption
Prayed just to make it through the day

[Chorus]

"Long Long Way"

"Long Long Way"


It happens everytime I think about the reasons why I sittin here alone at night at night and not with you
The heartache takes control and lets me know just what a fool I was and how you cant erase the things you do
And sorry just cant mend the broken heart Ive handed you, break apart is what most broken hearts tell you to do

But Im a long, long way from over you, dont think Ive ever seen so many shades of blue
They say that time will heal, dont know if I ever will cause Im a long, long way from over you

[Instrumental Interlude]

Now over you just sounds like some lost city, people tell me how to find but somehow I just never do

And maybe its because I never wanted to at all of course now I see that I had the best in you
That clock just runs in circles, the days just go on by, the memories hold me closer no matter how I cry

Im still a long, long way from over you, dont think Ive ever seen so many shades of blue
They say that time will heal, dont know if I ever will cause Im a long, long way from over you

[Instrumental Interlude]

That clock just runs in circles, the days just go on by, the memories hold me closer no matter how I cry

Im still a long, long way from over you, dont think Ive ever seen so many shades of blue
They say that time will heal, dont know if I ever will cause Im a long, long way from over you

[Instrumental Interlude]

They say that time will heal, dont know if I ever will cause Im a long, long way from over you

"Long Way To Go"

"Long Way To Go"



Well I drove down to the ocean
Left my heartache way behind
But the rain won't leave and the pain won't ease
And the sun don't wanna shine

So I ordered me up a killer
Found a view out across the sea
I sat down in the sand
A drink in my hand
And in the glass looking back at me

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

Well I met an old boy from Georgia
Yeah, his woman done knocked him down
I asked him how's he doing
He stared at me confused
And said, "Hey, ain't you looked around?"

He said the rain won't leave
And the pain won't ease
And the sun don't wanna shine
And there's something in the bottom of this drink I just got
And it don't look like a worm to me

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

So we put our drinks together
And toasted rainy weather
And the women that had done us wrong
Then we threw back margaritas
The bug just made it sweeter
And we both sang a happy song

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

"Look At Me"

"Look At Me"



I would bet my life like I bet my heart
That you were the one baby
I've never been so sure of anything before
It's driving my heart crazy, I can't hold out
I can't hold back now like I've done before

Darlin' look at me, I've fallen like a fool for you
And darlin' can't you see I'd do anything you want me to?
I tell myself I'm in too deep
Then I fall a little farther every time you look at me

How do you do that girl?
Make me feel like I'm the only man alive for you
I guess that's what it is that makes me fall like this
The first time in your arms I knew
The way you held me, it overwhelmed me
I went out of my mind

Darlin' look at me, I've fallen like a fool for you
And darlin' can't you see I'd do anything you want me to?
I tell myself I'm in too deep
Then I fall a little farther every time you look at me

Every time baby
Every time you look at me

"Look Her In The Eye And Lie"

"Look Her In The Eye And Lie"


You’re asking me to tell you
How to deal with that old flame
When you see her out there
And you still feel the same
How she ripped out your whole heart
And took it with her when she left
You’re face to face now looking at her
She’s holding on to somebody else

[Chorus]
Tell her you don’t love her
And tell her you don’t care
And tell her you don’t need her
And you don’t miss her then
And give her that cold shoulder
And say you’ve never cried
Just look her in the eye and lie

You may not get over
Some loves in your life
But as you’ll get over
You’ll know wrong more than right
But you might get lucky
And those feelings fade away
The chances are they’ll come back around
To be ready now and just what to say

[Chorus]
Just tell her you don’t love her
And tell her you don’t care
And tell her you don’t need her
And you don’t miss her then
And give her that cold shoulder
And say you’ve never cried
Just look her in the eye and lie [X2]

"Love Lifted Me"

"Love Lifted Me"



I was sinking deep in sin,
far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
sinking to rise no more,
But the Master of the sea,
heard my despairing cry,
From the waters lifted me,
now safe am I.

Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me!

All my heart to Him I give,
ever to Him I’ll cling
In His blessèd presence live,
ever His praises sing,
Love so mighty and so true,
merits my soul’s best songs,
Faithful, loving service too, to Him belongs.

Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me!

Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me!
