"If You Can Lie A Little Bit"

"If You Can Lie A Little Bit"



If you can lie a little bit
You can lie a little bit more
Once you get away with it
It comes a little easier than it did before.

No hard feelings, no harm done
It's just time that I move on
Though we've only just begun
To see the signs of things to come
It's just a little lie to get in your way.

If you can lie...

Wish you didn't look so good
Guess you never understood
Love is built on faith and trust
There's no future here for us
I have made a few mistakes in my time.
If you can lie...

I wanna believe you
When you say you'll change for me
Shame on me!
Ooh, if you can lie...

"If You Want To Find Love"

"If You Want To Find Love"



He was sitting on a bar stool
A picture from a cheating song
She'd been standing by the jukebox
Dropping quarters all night long.

He said, tell me: are you lonely?
Is there some place we can go?
She said: cowboy, you know I'm lonely
But there's something you should know.

If you wanna find gold go looking in the mountains
If you wanna find silver go digging in stones
If you wanna find heaven go reading in the Bible
If you wanna find love go looking at home.

She touched the gold ring on his finger
And held it to the jukebox light
And she said. Stranger, think what you're losing
If you leave here with me tonight.

So he hold her body closer
She felt feelings she'd never known
And he said: thank you, for the lesson
And if you need me I'll be at home.

If you wanna find gold go looking in the mountains
If you wanna find silver go digging in stones
If you wanna find heaven go reading in the Bible
If you wanna find love go looking at home...

"If You Were The Friend"

"If You Were The Friend"



If i closed my eyes it didn't hurt quite so bad
'cos tonight I've just lost the
Best friend I've ever had
You were a maverick running all
Away from New Orleans
We'd tell stories 'round the
Campfire late at night
When it was down to just you and me.

Good friend, why did you have to go?
Just when I was getting to know you
I'll sing this song to show
You were a good friend
They don't make 'em quite like you
And in my memory
You'll always be a good good friend to me.

You said I got a home, boy
Haven't seen it for so long
Said I'm going home, boy
My work is done
I can feel it in my bones.

Good friend, why did you ......

"In And Out Of Your Heart"

"In And Out Of Your Heart"



If my heart's not too late
For a piece of your time
There's been so many days
Since your eyes looked at mine

In the dark of this room
Where the burning has grown
You believe in your love
When you're lost and alone

And life don't give no reasons
When the love goes away
No answers for someone like you

Hold me, hold me
Seems like we never get together anymore
Hold me, hold me
Starry nights don't come enough
That's what we come here for, hold me

I will lay by your side
I can warm your cold nights
You can play in my dreams
Till I'm out of your sight in the morning, my love

Couldn't change where you go
You were always my woman
It's the one truth I know
So hold out when there's no chance
For your love anyway
No diamond could shine close to you

Hold me, hold me
Seems like we never get together anymore
Hold me, hold me
Starry nights don't come enough
That's what we came here for, hold me

"In Our Old Age"

"In Our Old Age"



Comin' home from work today I saw our future
And old man and his wife were holdin' hands
They were sittin' on a front porch swing like two young lovers
I waved to them as I went by then I realized
That life does not grow dimmer with the settin' of the sun
The best years of our lives still are yet to come.

In our old age love will just get better
The longer we're together, we'll grow stronger everyday
Our bodies may get weaker and our hair will turn gray
But love will never fade in our age (love will never fade).

One day the kids will all be grown and they'll be leavin'
And it will be like it was years ago
We'll be sittin' on the front porch swing like two young lovers
'Cause today I just saw what our future holds...

"In The Sweet By And By"
(feat. Winfield's Locket)

"In The Sweet By And By"
(feat. Winfield's Locket)



There’s a land that is fairer than day,
And by faith we can see it afar;
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there.

[Refrain:]
In the sweet by and by,
We shall meet on that beautiful shore;
In the sweet by and by,
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.

We shall sing on that beautiful shore
The melodious songs of the blessed;
And our spirits shall sorrow no more,
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.

To our bountiful Father above,
We will offer our tribute of praise
For the glorious gift of His love
And the blessings that hallow our days.

"In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning"

"In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning"



In the wee small hours of the morning
While the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake and think about the girl
And never even think of counting sheep

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be hers if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That's the time you miss her most of all

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be hers if only she would call
And in the wee small hours of the morning
That's the time you missed her most of all

"Islands In The Stream"
(feat. Dolly Parton)

"Islands In The Stream"
(feat. Dolly Parton)



Baby, when I met you
There was peace unknown
I set out to get you
With a fine tooth comb
I was soft inside
There was something going on

You do something to me
That I can't explain
Hold me closer and I feel no pain
Every beat of my heart
We got something going on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel
Needs no conversation
We can ride it together, ah-ha
Making love with each other, ah-ha

Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
From one lover to another, ah-ha

I can't live without you
If the love was gone
Everything is nothing
If you got no one
And you did walk in the night
Slowly losing sight of the real thing

But that won't happen to us
And we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the message is clear
This could be the year for the real thing

No more will you cry
Baby, I will hurt you never

We start and end as one
In love forever
We can ride it together, ah-ha
Making love with each other, ah-ha

Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
From one lover to another, ah-ha

Sail away

[Instrumental Interlude]

Ooooh, come sail away with me

Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
From one lover to another, ah-ha

Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
From one lover to another, ah-ha

"It Turns Me Inside Out"

"It Turns Me Inside Out"



In a way I'm glad it's over
Even though it's gonna hurt me once you're gone
But I can learn to live without you
Give me time and I can make it on my own

'Cause lovin' you to me came easy
Now, losing you will change my life no doubt
In a way I'm glad it's over
In another way it turns me inside out

In a way I guess it's better
Even though there's nothing good about goodbye
But I know I couldn't hold you
Now, you've found your wings and you need room to fly

It's for sure I'm gonna miss you
But I guess that's what goodbye is all about
In a way I'm glad it's over
In another way it turns me inside out

On the one hand I know, I'll be better off once you're gone
But I find a lot of heartache on the other
And I can't say I'm looking forward to those nights I'll spend alone
And I wonder will there ever be another

'Cause loving you to me came easy
Now, losing you will change my life no doubt
In a way I'm glad it's over
In another way it turns me inside out

In a way I'm glad it's over
In another way it turns me inside out

"It's A Beautiful Life"



You can do what you want just seize the day
What you're doing tomorrow's gonna come your way
Don't you ever consider giving up, you will find, oooh

It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh

And stay until the break of dawn
Take a walk in the park when you feel down
There's so many things there that's gonna lift you up
See the nature in bloom a laughing child
Such a dream, oooh

It's a beautiful life, oooh...
I just wanna be here beside you

And stay until the break of dawn
You're looking for somewhere to belong
You're standing all alone
For someone to guide you on your way
Now and forever

I just wanna be anybody
We're living in different ways

It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you to a place I've never been
Before o yeah

I'm gonna take you in my arms and fly away with you tonight
It's a beautiful life, oooh...
