"I Can't Make You Love Me"

"I Can't Make You Love Me"


Turn down the lights;
Turn down the bed.
Turn down these voices
Inside my head.

Lay down with me;
Tell me no lies.
Just hold me close;
Don't patronize.

Don't patronize me.

[Chorus:]
'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.
You can't make your heart feel
Something it won't.
Here in the dark
In these final hours,
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power;
But you won't.
No, you won't.
'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.

I'll close my eyes,
Then I won't see
The love you don't feel
When you're holding me.

Morning will come,
And I'll do what's right;
Just give me till then
To give up this fight.

And I will give up this fight.

[Chorus]

"I Don't Want Anything To Change"

"I Don't Want Anything To Change"


Sleepless nights aren't so bad
I'm staying up, I'm staying sad
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change
I like it lonely I like it strange
I don't want anything to change

You left a mess you're everywhere
I'd pick it up but I don't dare
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change
There's nothing I would rearrange
I don't want anything to change

I can feel you fading
But until you're gone
I'm taking all the time I can borrow
The getting over is waiting
But I won't move on
And I'm gonna wanna feel the same tomorrow

I know the truth is right outside
But for the moment it's best denied
I don't want anything to change

I can feel you fading
But until you're gone
I'm taking all the time I can borrow
The getting over is waiting
But I won't move on
And I'm gonna wanna feel the same tomorrow

And I don't want anything to do
With what comes after you
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change

"I Feel The Same"

"I Feel The Same"


Say goodbye,
Well I know it's true.
I know you're leaving me but i,
I'm leaving too.
You won't forget me,
Or the sound of my name.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.

It seems so empty now.
Clo-ose the door.
Ain't it hard to believe that you ever,
Lived this way before.
All that nothing,
Causes all that pain.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.

[Guitar break]

Well this broken soul,
That I know a, a heart that's breakin'.
You can't make it whole
Until you know what has been taken.
And all those pieces,
Uh that you find them all your own.
[Guitar fills in the missing tag lyric]

I said goodbye.
Now you know it's true.
You said you're leaving me, but honey i,
I'm leaving too.
You won't forget me
Or the sound of my name.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.

[Guitar break, and fade]

"I Gave My Love A Candle"

"I Gave My Love A Candle"


I gave my love a candle
A promise at life
And I told him when my number comes up
Winds would fill the sky
Me I'm fixin' to die
Moving down that same lonesome road
No I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
You didn't have to fool me
You didn't have to lie
My love comes around like a thief in the night
But only love can make you cry
And we have walked side by side
Moving down that same lonesome road
No I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Your love was like a diamond ride a wave
On a sea that calms my mind
Moving onward to a distant shore
Where the boats sail in a line
We have danced to a fateful rhyme
Moving down the same lonesome road
No I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
You didn't have to fool me, no
You didn't have to lie
If it all came out so ugly
It's only my love that could make you cry
And we have walked side by side
Moving down that same lonesome road
And I still don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Ooh ooh ooh
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

"I Got Plenty"

"I Got Plenty"


Did you get enough today
Did you give out any
Had a lots of things to do
Maybe just too many
Any now the world is you
Taken all the dreams you knew
Come to me, I got plenty

Did you feel alone today
with your one and only
I had a lot of things to say
People make you lonely
You wonder what you're living on
You left with all your reasons gone
Count on me, I got plenty

You can count on me, I got plenty
Count on me

Got an invitation now
To come and join the party
Come in your individual,
Not your everybody
And don't worry that you won't you will
You've got an empty cup to fill

Count on me x2
Coz I got plenty

I got plenty to end

"I Knew"

"I Knew"


Time, time ain't never healed the wound
Can't think of anything that gets
Any better 'cause it's old

Change, change would prob'ly do me good
Wouldn't prob'ly hurt a thing
Anyway, that's what I'm told

I would have run, but I couldn't run
Would have flown, but I couldn't fly
I woulda headed right back into town
I woulda lied, but I couldn't lie
'Cause I knew

Stop, stop and take a better look
There ain't no telling what you'll find
In the corner of a darkened room

Things, things that either one time fell
Or blew down from a windowsill
Or never got up by the broom

I would have run, but I couldn't run
Would have flown, but I couldn't fly
I woulda headed right back into town
I woulda lied, but I couldn't lie
'Cause I knew

No two ways about it, it's a doggone shame
Baby, it's a doggone shame

I would have run, but I couldn't run
Would have flown, but I couldn't fly
I woulda headed right back into town
I woulda lied, but I couldn't lie
'Cause I knew

"I Know"

"I Know"


I know you don't love me no more;
No, no more; and I don't
(don't) wanna be hurted any more,
Any more; yeah, yeah,
I've loved so hard, everything I did was no joy; if I can't
Love you right, baby, I don't have to love you at all

I know you don't want me no more, no more
No, no more
And it had to be someone loving you more
Lovin' you more
Ain't no use in me cryin' now all because you have put me down
If you don't want me no more baby, ain't no use in me hanging around.

"I Need Love"

"I Need Love"


I need love
And I search it everyplace I go
And lately I been in a zone
It's got a will of its own
But right now I'm here to discuss
Just what you think about us

I need love, I need love
And I'm checkin everything I see
You know at times I wanna take on three
That's just the way I could be
I let you know about that
Just so you know where I'm at
I need love, I need love

It's always been this way and ain't' nothin'
Gonna change it
And ain't nothing you can try

I need love, I need love
And I'm takin every chance I man
And baby you could make my day
There's just one thing I should say
Now that's it's all said and done
You know I do need to run
I need love, I need love

"I Sho Do"

"I Sho Do"


You took my love and ran away
What did you expect me to say
I gave you everything I could
But you weren't giving up, baby
What you should

I Sho do...Need You
I Sho Do...Want You

I'm in need of what you've got
It makes my blood boiling hot
You told me baby, A long time ago
That you'd never, ever leave me
Never, no more

I Sho Do...Need You
I Sho Do...Want You
I Sho Do...Wish For You
I Sho Do...Walk the Floor All Night Long

When you see me, baby standing alone
Come and help me baby, Cause I'm out on my own
You see it ain't easy in the streets
But what you've got baby, could help me to my feet

I Sho Do...Need You
I Sho Do...Want You
I Sho Do...Wish For You
I Sho Do...Walk the Floor All
Night Long

"I Thank You"

"I Thank You"


You didn't have to love me like you did
But you did
Yes you did
And I thank you

You didn't have to hold me like you did
But you did
Yes you did
And I thank you

If you took your love somewhere else
I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death
You make me feel, Like I've never felt
Kisses so good I've got to holler for help
You didn't have to shake it like you did
But you did
Yes you did
And I thank you

You didn't have to make it like you did
But you did
Yes you did
And I thank you

All my life I've been short changed
Without your love baby, it's a crying shame
Now I know what the girls were talking about
When they say that ya.....oooooooooooooh
I wanna thank you baby
Thank you honey
I've got to thank you Oooooh hoooooo
Baby yeaahhhh
