"I Could Be So Good For You"

"I Could Be So Good For You"



If you want to, I'll change the-e situation
Right people, right time, just the wrong location
I've got a good idea, just you keep me near
I'd be so good for you

I could be so good for you, I'm gonna help ya
Love ya like you want me to
I'd do anything for you
Id be so good for you
I could be so good for you
I'll do it like you want me to
Love you like you want me to
There ain't nothin' I can't go through
I'd be so good for you

Sometime when you're feelin' like a poor relation
Call on me and I'll give you more than conversation
Take an' shake it, hey it's a deal
And woh big brother I'll make you heal
I'll be so good for you

I could be so good for you, I'll be right by your side
Love you like you want me to
There ain't nothin' you can hide from me
I'd be so good for you
I could be so good for you
I'm your man, Love you like you want me to
I'll tell you nothin', there ain't nothin', nothin' I cannot do
I'll be so good for you

Don't ask me no questions, I'll tell ya no lies
Use my shoulder to rest on
I will be right by your side
I will be your ear tonight

I could be so good for you, I'm the one you really need
Love you like you want me to
I can even help you breathe
I'll be so good for you
I can make the good times roll, make 'em roll
Love you with my heart and soul, That's right
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, I'd be so good for you

"I Do It For Your Love"

"I Do It For Your Love"



I'm not sentimental, no one calls me tender
I keep my emotions safe inside
But I've never felt these feelings
And time just keeps revealing.

A part of me I can no longer hide
The moment that I kissed your lips
I found a whole new world exists
Look what you've done with my life.

If I write your name a thousand times
Inside a heart next to mine
Act like a fool whose faith is blind
Whatever I do, I do it for your love.

I'm not one for flowers
Or talking on the phone for hours
Fancy words have never been my game
An answered prayer I never prayed
That came true anyway
Now I know I'll never be the same.

If I light a candle in the night
To see the reflexion in your eyes
You don't even need to ask me why
Whatever I do, I do it for your love.

I write your name a thousand times
Inside a heart next to mine
Act like a fool whose faith is blind
Whatever I do, I do it for your love...

"I Don't Call Him Daddy"

"I Don't Call Him Daddy"



It was six in the morning
When I made the county line
There's someone I got to talk to
I can't get it off my mind

He's just a kid
And he's in a pretty rough spot
Two dimes to make a phone call
That's about all I've got

How's my boy today?
I know it's been three weeks
But you know how far I've got to go
To make those loose ends meet

How's your mama now
With her new live-in friend
Oh, how I hate the wounds
That never seem to mend

And he says I don't call him daddy
But he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday
Are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, ya know
It don't matter what we do
I don't call him daddy
He could never be like you
Never be like you

God bless their little hearts
They're the ones who really pay
When mom and dad can't get along
And go their separate ways

In a way I'm glad there's someone
There to fill the empty place
Tears of understanding
Streak down a dirty face

And he says I don't call him daddy
But he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday
Are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, ya know
It don't matter what we do
I don't call him daddy
He could never be like you
Never be like you, be like you
Be like you

He is quite a little man
Growing up as fast as he can
And I don't get to see him
Half as much as I had planned

There's so much I need to tell him
So precious little time
A little rain on the window
In a little wave goodbye

And he says I don't call him daddy
But he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday
Are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, ya know
It don't matter what we do
I don't call him daddy
He could never be like you
Never be like you

I don't call him daddy
But he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday
Are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, ya know
It don't matter what we do
I don't call him daddy
He could never be like you
Never be like you

"I Don't Need You"

"I Don't Need You"



I don't need you
I don't need friendship
And I don't need flowers in the Spring
And I don't need you
And you surely don't want me

I don't need love and affection
And I don't peace and harmony
And I don't need you
And you surely don't need me

But we both want it bad enough
Yes, we both want it
Don't we
I don't need you, baby
And I know you don't need me

I don't need your loving arms around me
All I need is to be free
That's what I keep tellin' myself
And I tell you, you don't need me

I don't need children in my old age
No more cluttered leaves around the trees
And I don't need you, baby
And I know you don't need me

But we both want it bad enough
Yes, we both want it
Don't we
I don't need you, baby
And I know you don't need me

And we don't need each other, baby
We don't need each other, baby
Or do we

"I Don't Want To Know Why"

"I Don't Want To Know Why"



I took your love as desperate measure
Seeking shelter from another lonely night
You took my love seeking only pleasure
But the feeling passes and the passion doesn't last.

And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just feel the seasons, as they touch another year.
And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just know what is now, and what could never be.

Will the memories fade or will they linger?
Will we live forever for a moment we can keep?
Now we stand alone
(Why don't you do what you told me)
Where we stood together
(I only wanted you to hold me)
How did we ever let this dream slip through our hand
(How did we ever let this dream slip through our hand).

And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just feel the seasons, as they touch another year.
And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just know what is now, and what could never be...

"I Get Along Without You Very Well (Except Sometimes)"

"I Get Along Without You Very Well (Except Sometimes)"



I get along without you very well, of course, I do
Except when soft rains fall and drip from leaves
Then I recall the thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Of course I do, but I get along without you very well

I've forgotten you just like I should, of course, I have
Except to hear your name
Or someones laugh that's just the same
But I've forgotten you just like I should

What a guy, what a fool am I?
To think my breaking heart could kid the moon
What's in store, should I fall once more?
No it's best that I stick to my tune

I get along without you very well, of course, I do
Except perhaps in spring
But I should never ever think of spring
For that would surely break my heart in two

What's in store, should I fall once more?
No it's best that I stick to my tune

I get along without you very well, of course, I do
Except perhaps in spring
But I should never ever think of spring
For that would surely break my heart in two

"I Prefer The Moonlight"

"I Prefer The Moonlight"



When temptin' eyes 'cross the room
Said to me I'd love to be with you
I'm not tempted for a moment
I just think about my woman
My baby calls me on the phone
Telling me I need to hurry home
Well the hurryin' is easy
'Cause she's waiting up
With all the love I'm needin'

I prefer the moonlight, and a blanket
And the one right little lady by my side
That's what I like
I prefer a late drive down the turnpike
With the moonlight shinin' so bright
Got her by my side
That's what I'd like
When its magic moment time,
I prefer the moonlight

The river plays a quiet song
She and I lay down and play along
She's her mother's lovely daughter
Moonlight dances on the water
The moon is full and so am I
I look at her and feel like I could cry
But my tears contain no sorrow
'Cause I know she'll wake up by my side tomorrow

I prefer...

Mornin' noon and night,
When the feelin' comes around
Somewhere in some sky
That ol' moon is surely shinin' bright

I prefer...

"I Remember You"

"I Remember You"



I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses go.

I remember you
You're the one who said "I love you too, I do"
Didn't you know?

I remember too
A distant bell and stars that fell like rain
Out of the blue.

When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then I should tell them: I remember you.

When my life...

"I Trust You"

"I Trust You"



God said, Mary pure and holy
With this baby, I trust you
She said, surely I'm not worthy
And it scares me, but I trust you.

Underneith a shining star
In a manger stall
Mary held the gift of love
God gave to us all.

Precious baby pure and holy
I'm not worthy, but I trust you

Underneith a shining star
In a manger stall
Mary held the gift of love
God gave to us all.

Precious baby pure and holy
Will you save me, I trust you
Son of Mary, I trust you...

"I Want A Son"

"I Want A Son"



I want a son
Someone I can blame for turning grey
To share my name, to share my days
To share the things I've earned
The lessons that I've learned along the way
He'd have a friend and we'd have fun
I love to laugh and I would love to have a son.

I want a girl
Twirling round the room in pink and blue
To count on me, to see her through
Who'd worry when I'm late
And tell me that I'm great when it's not true
She'd have a friend and we'd have fun
I'd love a daughter just as I would love a son.

I wanna care
I wanna wonder where they are
I wanna see that they go farther than me
And carry on, the things I love, when I'm gone.

Forgetting me
I'd be good for them, I really would
They'd have someone who understood
Who'd always be around
And never let them down, I never could.

He'd have a friend and we'd have fun
She'd have a friend, we'd all be one
I'd love to have a girl
Or I would love to have a son.
