"Love Is"

"Love Is"



Love is a shiny car
Love is a steel guitar
Love is a battle scar
Love is a morning song
Love is a twelve-bar blues
Love is your blue suede shoes
Love is a heart abused
Love is a mind confused

And love is the pleasures I'm told
And for some love is still a band of gold
My love has no reason, has no rhyme
My love cross the double line
Love is a mine of gold
Love is a man to hold
Love is a drowning soul
Love is it's own reward

And love is the pleasures I'm told
And for some love is still a band of gold
My love has no reason, has no rhyme
My love cross the double line
And love is the pleasures I'm told
And for some love is still a band of gold
My love has no reason, has no rhyme
My love cross the double line
Oh, my love cross the double line
Oh, my love cross the double line

"Love's Gonna Live Here"

"Love's Gonna Live Here"



Oh the sun's gonna shine in my life once more
Love's gonna live here again
Thing's are gonna be the way they were before
Love's gonna live here again

Love's gonna live here
Love's gonna live here
Love's gonna live here again

No more loneliness
Only happiness
Love's gonna live here again

I hear bells a ringing
I hear birds a singing
Love's gonna live here again

I hear bees a humming
And I know the days a coming
Love's gonna live here again

"Lover's Return"

"Lover's Return"



And so you have come back to me
And say the old loves growing yet
You've tried through all these weary years
You've tried so vainly to forget

Oh no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives is back our youth
The loving heart you slighted then
Was yours, my friend, in perfect truth

Come close and let me see your face
Your raven hair is tinged with snow
Oh, yes, it is the same dear face
I loved so many years ago

Oh no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives is back our youth
The loving heart you slighted then
Was yours, my friend, in perfect truth

Farewell, I think I love you yet
As friend to friend, God bless you dear
And guide you through these weary years
To where the skies are always clears

Oh no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives is back our youth
The loving heart you slighted then
Was yours, my friend, in perfect truth

"Lovin' You Again"

"Lovin' You Again"



You call me from a phone booth with tears in your voice
Tell me you've been out all night runnin' with the boys
You say you're cold and tired and lonely
And you got no place to go
There wasn't any phonebook
Mine's the only number that you know

Well call yourself a taxi and I'll pay 'im at the door
If you don't mind sleepin' on the sofa or on the floor
And I spend an hour hatin' you
'Til the cab pulls in
My heart has found another way
To be loving you again

And every time is the last time
And every time is the first
Everytime is the last time with you
Oh it never gets no better
And it couldn't get no wore

Then I hear the footsteps the driver's at the door
He says I look familiar has he made this run before
And I tell him I don't think so
What's it matter anyway
Just tell me what the meter reads
And I'll go and get your pay

Well now it's down to you and me though it don't seem right
We both know where we'll be and what we'll do tonight
And after an hour or two
When the night comes to an end
My heart has found another way
To be lovin' you again

And every time is the last time
And every time is the first
Everytime is the last time with you
Oh it never gets no better
And it couldn't get no worse

I know that there should be more to say I'll just reed your mind
Let's save what's left unsaid for another time
'Cause I know there'll be another time
So until then
My heart has found another way
To be lovin' you again
My heart has found another way
To be lovin' you again
Oh, my heart has found another way
To be lovin' you again

"Loving The Highway Man"

"Loving The Highway Man"



The wind is a warning
These fields turn to to sand
My family will not answer me now
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man

Don't say where this ring came from
From whose shaking hands
don't say who lies bleeding for me
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man

There's a hole in the ceiling
There's no pleasure in my gain
My heart is in prison
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man
Damned damned damned I am
Loving the highway man

"Luxury Liner"

"Luxury Liner"



Luxury liner, forty tons of steel
If I don't find my baby now
I guess I never will
I've been a long lost soul
For a long, long time
I've been around
Everybody ought to know what's on my mind
You think I'm lonesome, so do I
So do I

Well, I'm the kind of girl
Who likes to make a livin' runnin 'round
And I don't need a stranger
To let me know my baby's let me down
You think I'm lonesome, so do I
So do I

Luxury liner, forty tons of steel
No one in this whole wide world
Can change the way I feel
I've been a long lost soul
For a long long time
I've been around
Everybody ought to know what's on my mind
You think I'm lonesome, so do I
So do I

"Making Believe"

"Making Believe"



Making believe that you still love me
It's leaving me alone and so blue
Still I'll always dream, but I'll never own you
Making believe, its all I can do

Can't hold you close when you're not whit me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe

Making believe I never lost you
But my happy hours are so few
My plans for the future will never come true
Making believe what else can I do

 

[fox69]

"Making Plans"

"Making Plans"



You say tomorrow you're going
It's so hard for me to believe
I'm making plans for the heartaches
'Cause you're making plans to leave

The tears for me will be falling
Like a tree shedding its leaves
I'm making plans for the tear drops
'Cause you're making plans to leave

You're making plans to forget me
I'm making plans to miss you
I'm getting ready ti grieve

I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave
I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave

"Mansion On The Hill"

"Mansion On The Hill"



There's a place out on the edge of town sir
Risin' above the factories and fields
Now ever since I was a child I can remember
That mansion on the hill
In the day you can see the children playing
On a road that leads to those gates of hardened steel
Steel gates that completely surround sir
That mansion on the hill

At night my daddy'd take me and we'd ride
Through the streets of a town so silent and still
Park on a back road along the highway signs sir
Look up at the mansion on the hill

In the summer all the lights would shine
There'd be music playin' people laughin' all the time
Me and my brother we'd lie down in the tall cornfields sir
Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill

Tonight down here in Linden Town
I watch the cars rushin' by home from the mill
There's a beautiful full moon rising
Above the mansion on the hill

"May This Be Love"

"May This Be Love"



Waterfall
Nothing can go wrong
Nothing can go wrong
My sweet waterfall

When I go
When I go down deep
I want you here with me
My sweet waterfall

I can see
A rainbow calling me
Through your mystery
My sweet waterfall

Waterfall
For a million day
Fall with me for a million days
My sweet waterfall

Waterfall
Nothing can go wrong
Nothing can go wrong
My sweet waterfall
Nothing can go wrong
My sweet waterfall
