"Lost"

"Lost"


I can’t believe it’s over
I watched the whole thing fall
And I never saw the writing that was on the wall
If I only knew
The days were slipping past
That the good things never last
That you were crying

Summer turned to winter
And the snow it turned to rain
Then the rain turned into tears upon your face
I hardly recognize the girl you are today
And god I hope it’s not too late
It’s not too late

[CHORUS:]
Cuz you are not alone
I’m always there with you
And we’ll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
When you feel like your done
And the darkness has won
Babe you’re not lost
When your world’s crashing down
And you can’t bear the thought
I said, babe you’re not lost

Life can show no mercy
It can tear your soul apart
It can make you feel like you’ve gone crazy
But you’re not
Though things have seemed to change
There’s one thing that’s still the same
In my heart you have remained
And we can fly, fly, fly away

[REPEAT CHORUS]

"Love Hurts"
(originally by The Everly Brothers)

"Love Hurts"
(originally by The Everly Brothers)



Love hurts, love scars, love wounds and mars
A-a-a-a-any heart not tough, nor strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud, holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, mmm, love hurts

I'm young I know, but even so
I know a thing or two I've learnt from you
I really learnt a lot, really learnt a lot
Love is like a stove, burns you when it's hot
Love hurts, mmm, mmm, love hurts

Some fools dream of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
But they're not fooling me
I know it isn't true, know it isn't true
Love is just a lie made to make you blue
Love hurts, mmm, mmm, love hurts

"Love Is A Battlefield"

"Love Is A Battlefield"


We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us were wrong
Searchin our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield

You're beggin me to go, you're makin me stay
Why do you hurt me so bad?
It would help me to know
Do I stand in your way, or am I the best thing you've had?
Believe me, believe me, I cant tell you why
But I'm trapped by your love, and I'm chained to your side

We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield

We are strong, no one can tell us were wrong
Searchin our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield

Were losing control
Will you turn me away or touch me deep inside?
And before this gets old, will it still feel the same?
There's no way this will die
But if we get much closer, I could lose control
And if your heart surrenders, you'll need me to hold

We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield

We are strong, no one can tell us were wrong
Searchin our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield

We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love is a battlefield

We are strong, no one can tell us were wrong
Searchin our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love is a battlefield

"Love Is The Only Soldier"

"Love Is The Only Soldier"


Love is a drink with a lit cigarette
Love is your mouth that's holding my breath
Love is your hand that covers my breast
Love is the only soldier left

Love is a man in a coat in the rain
Love's every little mistake that he's made
Love is the moment that he has to embrace
Love is the only mercy left

Hide me inside your heart let me wash away
Hold me beneath your body all night and day
I pray that the morning comes and with me you'll stay
Oh hide me inside your heart let me wash away

Love is a song that I sang when I'm sad
Love's what I give to the world when I'm glad
Love's every friendship that I've ever had
Love is the only soldier left

Hide me inside your heart let me wash away
Hold me beneath your body all night and day
I pray that the morning comes and with me you'll stay
Oh hide me inside your heart let me wash away
Oh hold me beneath your body all night and day
I pray that the morning comes and with me you'll stay
Oh hide me inside your heart let me wash away

Oh hide me inside your heart let me wash away
Oh hide me inside your heart let me wash away

"Mend"

"Mend"


Why are you weeping
Yes, I still love you
We fight and fall down
And mend

Here drink some water
Soon you'll feel better
I know we have hope
My love

Whatever it was is lost
Whatever you've said forgotten

Why don't we lay down
Talk in the morning
Don't cry, just close your eyes
And mend

Whatever is was is lost
Whatever you've said forgotten

Why are you weeping
Yes, I still love you
We fight and fall down
And fall down
And mend

"Misty Blue"
(originally by Wilma Burgess)



Oh, it's been such a long, long time,
Looks like I get you off my mind,
Oh, but I can't,
Just the thought of you,
Turns my whole world,
A misty blue.

Just the mention of your name,
Turns the flicker to a flame,
I think of things we used to do,
Then my whole world,
Turns misty blue.

I should forget you,
Heaven knows I tried,
But, when I say,
"I'm glad we're through."
My heart knows I've lied.

Oh, it's been such a long, long time,
Looks like I get you off my mind,
Oh, but I can't,
Just the thought of you,
Turns my whole world,
A misty blue.

"Mr. McLennen"

"Mr. McLennen"


Mr. McLennen woke up one mornin’
Picked up his paper and died
There on the floor of the General Store
Where he started each day of his life

Barbara McDougal wrote in to The Bugle
Describing the tragic events
He laid down a dollar and loosened his collar
What a beautiful day it is

So long (so long)
Farewell (farewell)
We all got a story to tell
So long (so long)
Farewell (farewell)
We all got a story
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
(Oh, oh, oh oh oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Lenny Roy Parker drove off in the dark
With a beer and the joint he just rolled
Skid marks like a snake that led right to the lake
He thought, 'Man, what a weird way to go'

So long (so long)
Farewell (farewell)
We all got a story to tell
So long (so long)
Farewell (farewell)
We all got a story
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
(Oh, oh, oh oh oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Donna, the lesbian sewage truck driver
Slept in her driveway again
The rocks through the windows
Threats, innuendos
Tonight would all come to an end

'Cause you don't mess with Donna
She's good and she's honest
But you'll do what you gotta do
Nobody was found
Not a word, not a sound
'Cause the Donna don't leave any clues
(Donna don't leave any clues)

So long (so long)
Farewell (farewell)
We all got a story to tell
So long (so long)
Farewell (farewell)
We all got a story to tell
So long (so long)
Good night
Don't forget to turn out the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
(Oh, oh, oh oh oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Don't forget to turn out the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Don't forget to turn out the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

"Never Give Up On Me"

"Never Give Up On Me"


I've made more mistakes then I can count upon my finger tips
I have been ashamed and I have felt as guilty as all sin
Counting every tear that drops will not account for any loss
I'll let the past remain behind me now

Fill it up with goodness
I'll drink it down with love
Never give up on me
I will never give up on you
You're everything I need
Oh just look at what we've been through
So far so good

I have wished on every star that shot across my broken heart
I am still amazed that you came true
I have kissed a hundred lips but none of them compare to this
I have found myself inside of you

You forgive my sad regrets
And I forgive myself
Never give up on me
I will never give up on you
You're everything I need
Oh just look at what we've been through

Never give up on me
I will never give up on you
You're everything I need
Oh just look at what we've been through
I love you

"Not Saying Goodbye"

"Not Saying Goodbye"


I saw you outside your house
Your head it was hanging down
You were walking your girlfriend's dog
I'd forgotten how gray your hair was

Roll over the pain over the years
Roll over the heartbreak and the tears
Roll over the times I know we cried
Roll over the not saying goodbye
I will remember how hard we tried
I'll roll over the not saying goodbye

I tried calling your place last year
And I could not believe my ears
I could picture your face right then
I remembered just why I left

Roll over the pain over the years
Roll over the heartbreak and the tears
Roll over the times I know we cried
Roll over the not saying goodbye

Roll over
Roll over
Roll over

I will remember how hard we tried
I'll roll over the not saying goodbye

I saw you outside your house
Your head it was hanging down
You were walking your girlfriend's dog
I'd forgotten how gray your hair was

"Ode To A Friend"

"Ode To A Friend"


I don't mind if you stay longer
You have not been any trouble
I don't want you to go home yet
can you stay just stay ten more minutes

You are my best friend
I don't know how I'd live
How I love you
every square inch
Love your brown eyes
your forgiveness

Don't go home now
It's past midnight
You can sleep here
we'll have breakfast
Yes

You are my greatest gift
I don't know how I'd live
You are my saving grace
You are by heart my true friend
