"Except For You"

"Except For You"

Except for you, I've never known what love is
Or how it feels to have a dream come true
But now I find my world no longer lonely
The way that it would be except for you.

One by one you mended all the pieces
Of a heart that someone broke in two
You filled my life with happiness and sunshine
That I never would have known except for you.

You brought all the rainbow colors to a world of solid blue
There's nothin' prettier than rainbows, except for you
And so my love I wanted just to tell you
This old heart won't beat again, except for you.

My old heart won't beat again, except for you...

"Faded Love"

"Faded Love"

As I look at the letters
That you wrote to me
It's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines
That to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love.

I miss you darlin' more and more everyday
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love.

I think of the past
And all the pleasures we've had
As I watch the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime
That you said goodbye
And I remember our faded love.

I miss you darlin' more and more every day
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love...

"Fallin' For You For Years"

"Fallin' For You For Years"

Lookin' at us they'd think that we just met
And only been in love a night or two
They see a beautiful woman
In the shadows with a man
And all they see is a weekend rendezvous

Guess we look like cheaters
Lovers lyin' low
We must be decievers
'Cause baby they don't know

I've been fallin' for you for years
Can't get over the feel of you
Something in the way you make your moves
I've been fallin' for you for years
Runnin' deep, runnin' strong
It's been goin' on and on, for years

You make it easy to be a one woman man
Just look at you sitting there
Your eyes are talkin' in that soft and sexy way
Sayin' let's slip away, slip away somewhere
It don't take a rainy night or music in the dark
But, baby, when your body sends a message to my heart

I've been fallin' for you for years
Can't get over the feel of you
Something in the way you make your moves
I've been fallin' for you for years
Runnin' deep, runnin' strong
It's been goin' on and on and on and on.

I've been fallin' for you for years
Can't get over the feel of you
Something in the way you make your moves
I've been fallin' for you for years
Runnin' deep, runnin' strong
It's been goin' on and on and on and on and on
(Fallin' for you for years ...)

"Feelin's"

"Feelin's"

Feelin's just lead us on till we know where we're goin' mhmm
If I told you that I loved you could we slip away where the lights're low
And if I put my arms around you and held you close could you tell me no
Well you know that I'd be lyin' if I said I was a tryin' to let you know I'd go
Yes love take me where we've never been before
Feelin's just lead us on till we know where we're goin' mhmm
You don't know how long I wanted to have you where you are right now
With you looking soft and pretty ain't no telling where we've found
Now here we are together too close with talkin' I can't tell you no
Yes love take us where we've never been before
Feelin's just lead us on till we know where we're goin' mhmm
Feelin's mhmm feelin's

"Fever"

"Fever"

Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever - when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever - in the morning
Fever all through the night

Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
Because you know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever - when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever - in the morning
Fever all through the night

Now listen to me baby
And hear every word I say
No one can love you like I do
Cause they don't know how to love you my way

You give me fever - when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever - in the morning
Fever all through the night

Well, now you've heard my story
Here's the point that I have made:
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it fahrenheit or centigrade

They give you fever - yeah, when you kiss them
Fever when you live and learn
Fever - till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn

What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn...

"Fifteen To Forty-Three"

"Fifteen To Forty-Three"

I just cut the string
On a dusty old shoe box
And opened a door to the past
Now I'm sittin' here with my souvenirs
And these faded old photographs.

Fightin' back tears
Lookin' back through the years
And wonderin' why dreams fade so fast
Now the young boy I see
Don't look like the me
Reflected in this old looking glass.

The man in the mirror
Sees things so much clearer
Than the boy in the pictures
With his eyes full of dreams
Oh, the men that I've tried to be
From fifteen to forty-three
Never believed that they'd end up like me.

There's that touchdown I caught
Back when I thought
I'd play for the cowboys someday
There's you holding me in my faded fatigues
Comin' home to the U.S.A.

One after another
All my sweet dreams and lovers
Pass before my tear filled eyes
Pictures of a fool
Who was selfish and cruel
Till the day he made you say goodbye.

The man in the mirror
Sees things so much clearer
Than the boy in the pictures
With his eyes full of dreams
Oh the men that I've tried to be
From fifteen to forty-three
Never believed that they'd end up like me.

Oh, I never believed I'd be lonely like me...

"Fifteen Years Ago"

"Fifteen Years Ago"

I saw a man today who said he talked to you
not so long ago, I think a month or two
as my mind raced back in time I prayed
oh, Lord, don't let it show
he thinks I forgot you fifteen years ago

Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
why did he have to mention your name
I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
it takes a mighty long time
to get a real love off your mind
I know, I've tried since fifteen years ago

I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
I promised her my love through all eternity
I've tried hard to make her happy
and so far, she doesn't know
That I can't shake this thing of fifteen years ago

Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
why did he have to mention your name
I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
It takes a mighty strong love
To keep a man thinking of
A girl he hasn't seen since fifteen years ago

"Final Touches"

"Final Touches"

I never felt the way I feel tonight
Here with you in the pale moonlight
Tender love songs on the radio,
Sweet, sweet music that lets feelings flow
There's love in our hearts and the stars above us
All that's left are the final touches.

Warm wine chilling in the mountain stream
Sweet Magnolias drifting on the breeze
Soft, southern accent on your ruby red lips
The promise held in your fingertips.

For the searching hand of midnight lovers
All that's left are the final touches.

This perfect picture of you and me
One more move and it'll be complete.

For the searching hand of midnight lovers
All that's left are the final touches.

All that's left are the final touches...

"First Things First"

"First Things First"

Last night I had a blind date.
A situation that I usually hate.
I rang the bell, she opened the door
Wearin' a smile and not much more.
I said: "You think you better get dressed for dinner"
she said: "I'm dressed for dessert! Honey,
First Things First. First Things First".

After dinner and the wine is gone.
It's back at her place with the TV on.
I said: "It's gettin' late I should be gettin' home",
she said: "You know I really hate to sleep alone.
Maybe it's best that we get some rest?",
while she unbuttoned my shirt she said,
"First Things First, First Things First".

All night long I went along with her philosophy.
I must agree she got to me with her priority.
Waking up I never felt to good.
I'm seein' things I never thought I would.
Last night the lady made a change in me
And I'm seeing things a little differently.
So, ain't gonna hurry, no!

Ain't gonna worry why they wonder why we're late for work
We'll say, "First Things First".
Oh baby, First Things First.
Yeah, First Things First,
First Things First...

"Fit To Be Tied Down"

"Fit To Be Tied Down"

I've always been the travelin' kind
Another town was on my mind
It's not my fault that I was just
Born with a case of wanderlust
But I'm changin' fast
You'll put it all in my past
No more runnin' around
Feel like I'm fit to be tied down

I've loved some women in my time
So I'll leave some broken hearts behind
I know they'll cuss me that much more
But I've found what I've been searchin' for
Yeah I'm changin' fast
You'll put it all in my past
No more runnin' around
I'm finally fit to be tied down

Feel like I'm fit to be tied down
