"Just As Long As I Have You"

"Just As Long As I Have You"


Well, I love to wander
On a sandy shore
And I love to wander
Down the streets of towns
I've never been before
Take me somewhere out of reach
Lie in unfamiliar sheets
And hear the ocean roar
Ask for more I could not do,
Just as long as you're there too.

Just as long as I have you,
I'll go anywhere
Just as long as you're there too,
I don't really care
I'll go anywhere you are,
'Cause with you is where I belong.

[Instrumental]

I've just got to have you,
To make my life complete
I've just got to have you,
There to be a part of everything I see
In the windows I walk past,
In the mirror in the morning
in my photographs
In the candlelite cafes,
Let me always see your face.

Oh, it really doesn't matter
Just where the road leads
To the top of a mountain
Or down to the sea.

Just as long as I have you,
I'll go anywhere
Just as long as you're there too,
I don't really care
I'll go anywhere you are,
'Cause with you is where I belong.

Just as long as I have you.
Just as long as I have you...

"Just Enough Love"

"Just Enough Love"


I've got just enough love for one woman,
Not just any woman will do
I've got just enough love for one woman
And that one woman is you.

Love's like it should be but I knew it would be
You're the answer to my dreams
God helped me choose you, I don't want to lose you
Found out what love really means.

'Cause I've got just enough love for one woman,
Not just any woman will do
I've got just enough love for one woman
And that one woman is you.

[Instrumental]

Heaven must miss you, I can't resist you
When you look at me that way
I'm happy around you, so glad that I've found you
You'll always be my lucky day.

'Cause I've got just enough love for one woman,
Not just any woman will do;
I've got just enough love for one woman,
And that one woman is you.

I've got just enough love for one woman,
Not just any woman will do;
I've got just enough love for one woman,
And that one woman is you...

"Lay Down Beside Me"

"Lay Down Beside Me"


I've spent my life looking for you
Finding my way wasn't easy to do
I know there was your all the while
And it's been worth every mile

[Chorus:]
So lay down beside me
Love me and hide me
Kiss all the hurtin of this world away
Hold me so close that I feel your heartbeat
And don't ever wander away

Mornings and evenings all were the same
And there was no music till I heard your name
But I knew when I saw you smile
Now I can rest for awhile

[Chorus:]
So lay down beside me
Love me and hide me
Kiss all the hurtin of this world away
Hold me so close that I feel your heartbeat
And don't ever wander away

And don't ever wander away.......

"Lay Down Sally"

"Lay Down Sally"


There is nothing that is wrong
Wanting you to stay here with me
I know you got somewhere to go
Won't you make yourself at home and stay with me
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down Sally, rest here in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon
I been tryin' all night long 'jus to talk to you.

[Instrumental]

Sun ain't nearly on the rise
We still got the moon and stars above
Underneath the velvet skies
Love is all that matters won't you stay with me
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down Sally, rest here in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon
I been tryin' all night long 'jus to talk to you.

[Instrumental]

I long to see the mornin' light
Color in your face so dreamily
So don't you go and say goodbye
You can lay your worries down and stay with me
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down Sally, rest here in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon
I been tryin' all night long 'jus to talk to you.

Lay down Sally, rest here in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to
Lay down Sally, no need to leave so soon
I been tryin' all night long 'jus to talk to you...

"Learn To Let It Go"

"Learn To Let It Go"


There's a young man, sits by the river
Got his head held down in his hands
There's a lost love in every teardrop
And reasons that he just don't understand.

There's a dirt road that runs by the river
Comes an old man, stepping high
With a soft voice and kind intentions
He said, son you know you're too young to cry
Some things were meant to just roll by.

[Chorus:]
You've got to learn to let it go,
When love lets you down
Learn to let it go,
So you don't miss the one waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around.

[Instrumental]

He said, now I know it's hard to imagine
That one day you wont feel so bad.
I know you're going to take comfort
From this experience that I had.
There was a young girl, a raving beauty
I loved her with a love deep and wide
But when I lost her to another
That's when I found the momma of my child
God bless the momma of my child.

[Chorus:]
You've got to learn to let it go,
When love lets you down
Learn to let it go,
So you don't miss the one waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around

[Chorus:]
You've got to learn to let it go,
When love lets you down
Learn to let it go,
So you don't miss the one waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around.

[Instrumental to fade]

Got to learn to let it go [x8]

"Leaving"

"Leaving"



Sweetly flows the water from the mountain
Softly falls the rain upon the leaves
Gently blows the breeze among the cedars
Quietly my heart is on its knees
How could anything in all creation
Be more beautiful than all I see
With it all my heart is not rejoicing
Because the one I love is not with me

Somewhere in between us was a difference
Not we or all this beauty could secure
And I know now my heart will ache forever
And I wonder if this mountain can endure

So I'm leavin' for the flatlands
Goin' back where I was conceived
Goin' back where nobody knows the difference
This mountain knows too much about me

I though it was written up in heaven
That you would be with me and I with you
Sun and moon and stars must feel the difference
And they're wishin' there was somethin' they could do

"Leaving For The Flatlands"

"Leaving For The Flatlands"



Sweetly flows the water from the mountain
Softly falls the rain upon the leaves
Gently blows the breeze among the cedars
Quietly my heart is on its knees.

How could anything in all creation

Because the one I love is not with me.

Somewhere in between us was a difference

Goin' back where nobody knows the difference
This mountain knows too much about me.

Sun and moon and stars must feel the difference
They're wishin' there was somethin' they could do.

So I'm leavin' for the flatlands

Goin' back where nobody knows the difference
This mountain knows too much about me.

This mountain knows too much about me...

"Listen To The Radio"

"Listen To The Radio"




I guess as a lover I have a ways to go
When someone wants you they should just say it's so
But you'll understand if you'll take my hand
And then we can dance real slow
To something on the radio.

Listen to the radio
Oh, listen to the radio
'Let's spend the night together
Baby don't go'
They sing it on the radio.

I try to find a way to explain to you
What's on my mind and not sound so plain to you
But you'll realize if you close your eyes
The feelings my words can't show
They're playing on the radio.

[Repeat chorus]

The words I'd say
Don't seem to sound as real
The songs they play
That's how I really feel, so.

[Repeat chorus]

"Lone Star State Of Mind"

"Lone Star State Of Mind"



Your phone call took me by surprise
Gee, it's been a long, long time
Since those hot and humid Texas nights
We went swimmin' in the tide
Corpus Cristi seems so far away
And I'm not talkin' 'bout the miles
There ain't much I wouldn't give today
Just to see one of your smiles.

But I'm stuck here in Denver
Sippin' California wine
And I've got all night to remember you
I'm in a lone star state of mind.

I just saw John Wayne on the late, late show
He saved the girl and rode away
But I was hopin' as the credits rolled
He'd make it back to her some day.

'Cause, I'm stuck here in Denver
Sippin' California wine
And I've got all night to remember you
I'm in a lone star state of mind.

It's a thousand miles or more
From here to your front door
Oh, I'd be there tomorrow if I had my way
Well, I'd jus' pack up my guitar
You know its really not that far
And when you called you said
I'd have a place to stay.

But I'm stuck here in Denver
Sippin' California wine
And I've got all night to remember you
I'm in a lone star state of mind.

I've got all night to remember you
I'm in a lone star state of mind...

"Look Around You"

"Look Around You"


How do you like it
Being lonely
From what I see
You're someone who knows
Well, maybe you and I
Could get together
Then we won't be lonely anymore.

Look around you
See where you've been
You may never have to
Pass that way again
Look around you
If you need a friend
I might be the one
Who'll make your loneliness end.

Would you like to have someone to hold you
Someone to tell your troubles to
Someone to catch you if you've fallen
Someone who really cares for you.

Look around you
See where you've been
You may never have to
Pass that way again
Look around you
If you need a friend
I might be the one
Who'll make your loneliness end...
