"Take A Chance"

"Take A Chance"


Could it be we're the perfect pair?
Have it all if we'd only dare
I have dreamed of a night like this
Maybe you will end my loneliness

Meeting you was a dangerous thing
Can't control what is happening
Stood my ground, didn't run away
Trying hard to hide that I'm so afraid

Take a chance, take a chance
Shall I take another chance on love?
Take a chance, take a chance
Shall I take another chance on love?
When it feels so right
That I'm safe and warm inside
Take a chance and fall tonight

Guess my heart's on the borderline
Couldn't stand it not to work this time
It's hard to fight when it feels so good
If there's something, don't you think that we should

Take a chance, take a chance
Shall I take another chance on love?
Take a chance, take a chance
Shall I take another chance on love?
When it feels so right
That I'm safe and warm inside
Take a chance and fall tonight

"Take Me Home Country Roads"

"Take Me Home Country Roads"


Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is older there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountain
Blowing like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

All my memories gather round her
Minor's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, blowing in the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice in the morning hour
She calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

"Taking Our Own Sweet Time"

"Taking Our Own Sweet Time"


Taking our own sweet time
Love, it comes easy
Nothing better to do
Baby, just me and you
Taking our own sweet time

People forget that they're young
Everything's old pat
'Cause they don't know where it's at
We got the secret of life in the palm of our hand
We don't bury our heads in the sand
And we don't make any plans

Taking our own sweet time
Living is breezy
If you know how to slow down
And take a look around
Brothers and sisters

Why run around like a chicken without a head
When you can relax in your bed
Why should we go by the clock each and every day
Just let your heart lead the way
And think of the games we can play

"Talk To Me"

"Talk To Me"


When you're having those days when you're feeling deserted
And everyone leaves you on hold
When none of your friends seem to care what you're doin'
And you're feeling old, out in the cold
When the only thing left of romance is a memory
And your memory's not strong
Whenever your clouds lose their silvery lining
I'll keep you warm, out of the storm

You don't need no psychiatry
Come on baby you can talk to me
Cuddle up on the couch with me
We can talk all night for free
You don't need to be hypnotized
Lay down here and look me in my eyes
Cuddle up on the couch with me
We can talk all night for free
Won't you talk to me
Come on and talk to me
Oh talk to me

When you're feeling the blues and there's no one to lean on
When nobody makes you belong
You need to be safe in the arms of a someone
Who'll make you strong, it won't take long
If you're lookin' for someone that you can believe in
Let that someone be me
Can't think of a thing that some lovin' can't handle
Let's make a start, give me your heart

You don't need no psychiatry
Come on baby you can talk to me
Cuddle up on the couch with me
We can talk all night for free
You don't need to be hypnotized
Lay down here and look me in my eyes
Cuddle up on the couch with me
We can talk all night for free
Talk to me
Oh won't you talk to me
Oh, keep on talking to me
You gotta, you gotta talk to me
[Repeats]

"Tenterfield Saddler"

"Tenterfield Saddler"


The late George Woolnough
Worked on High Street
And lived on manors
52 years he sat on his veranda
And made his saddles
and if you had questions
About sheep or flowers or dogs
You just ask the saddler
He lived without sin
They're building a library for him

Time is a traveller
Tenterfield Saddler turn your head
Ride again Jackaroo
Think I see kangaroo up ahead

The son of George Woolnough
Went off and got married
And had a war baby
But something was wrong
And it's easier to drink than go crazy
And if there were questions about why
The end was so sad
Well George had no answers about why a son
Ever have need of a gun

Time is a traveller
Tenterfield Saddler turn your head
Ride again Jackaroo
Think I see kangaroo up ahead

The grandson of George
Has been all around the world
And lives in no special place
Changed his last name
And he married a girl with an interesting face
He'd almost forgotten them both
Because in the life that he leads
Theres nowhere for George
And his library
Or the son with his gun
To belong
Except in this song

Time is a traveller
Tenterfield Saddler turn your head
Ride again Jackaroo
Think I see kangaroo up ahead

Time is a medler
Tenterfield saddler make your bed
Fly away cockatoo
Down on the ground emu up ahead

Time is a tale teller
Tenterfield saddler turn your head
Ride again jackaroo
Think I see kangaroo up ahead

"That's All I Know For Sure"

"That's All I Know For Sure"


This life is so uncertain
That's all I know for sure
You spend your whole life searching
Thinking there's something more

And I wish that I could paint you skies
With brightest moons, with sun forevermore
But rain could fall tomorrow
That's all I know for sure

I don't regret a moment
That's just a waste of time
When tears apart have growing
I've had my share to mind

And time has a way of healing pain
We only gain from learning to endure
Life has no rhyme or reason
That's all I know for sure

If I can give you anything
To make you stronger than you are
Is that the key to everything
Is right there in your heart
Right there in your heart

For love is all that matters
That's all I know, that's all I know
For love is all that matters
That's all I know for sure

"The Air That I Breathe"

"The Air That I Breathe"


If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
Making love with you has left me peaceful, warm, and tired
What more could I ask, there's nothing left to be desired
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe, yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe

Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe, yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe

Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

"The Best Of Me"

"The Best Of Me"


(David Foster)
So many years gone, still I remember
How did I ever let my heart believe
In one who never gave enough to me
And so many years gone, a love that was so wrong
And I can't forget the way it used to be

You were my one more chance I never thought I'd find
You were the one romance I've always known in my mind
No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
I might've saved the best of me for you

And we'll have no ending, no no
If we can hold on
And I think I've come this far because of you
Could be no other love but ours will do

You were my one more chance I never thought I'd find
You were the one romance I've always known in my mind
No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
I might've saved the best of me for you

No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
No matter how much we have to learn
I've saved the best of me for you

"The Christmas Song"

"The Christmas Song"


Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey
And some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
And goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer
Really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you.

"The Christmas Waltz"

"The Christmas Waltz"


Frosted window panes
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way,
He's filled his sleigh
With things, things for you and for me

It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear
Seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too
