"Will He Ever Go Away"

"Will He Ever Go Away"



On a cool gray morning, I watched with my own eyes
As he headed out the driveway and finally out of my life
Oh I knew he'd soon be miles from my mind
So why should tears start fallin' after all this time

How can a memory last this long
Will he ever go away
Even the stars burn out and fall
Will he ever go away
How can someone who left so long ago
Still be here with me today
Will he ever go away

Shouldn't I start living my life for myself
Shouldn't it be easy to fall in love with someone else
Oh why should it be his touch I feel in the dark
And will his voice always echo through my heart

How can a memory last this long
Will he ever go away
Even the stars burn out and fall
Will he ever go away
How can someone who left so long ago
Still be here with me today
Will he ever go away

"Wish I Were Only Lonley"

"Wish I Were Only Lonley"



When you ain't got nobody, then nobody ever says goodbye
You don't have to wait for someone to make you laugh or make you cry
Wish I were only lonely
Just kind of ordinary blue
If I were only lonely then maybe I'd know what to do
But I'm helpless cause I'm lonely for you
I sleep in a bed so empty, it's an emptiness no one can fill.

I may have to go on living, but life without you ain't no thrill
Wish I were only lonely
Just kind of ordinary blue
If I were only lonely then maybe I'd know what to do
But I'm helpless cause I'm lonely for you

Well whoever said it's better to love and to lose
Well he ought to be right here in my shoes
Wish I were only lonely
Just kind of ordinary blue
If I were only lonely then maybe
I'd know what to do
But I'm helpless cause I'm lonely for you

"Wrong Night"

"Wrong Night"



I set my mind to it said I wasn't gonna do it no how so sir no way
I wouldn't give my heart up gonna keep my guard up and save it for another
Then you walked in with that crazy grin and everything I swore before
Got lost in your eyes and flew right out the door

Suddenly I heard love songs playing real soft on the jukebox
Somebody ordered up moonlight and painted stars all across the sky
Is it gravity or destiny either way there's nothing I can do
Looks like I picked the wrong night not to fall in love with you

I briefly resisted but my heart insisted it was gonna be giving in
Hard as I was trying there was no denying which one of us would win
You came up beside me and asked if I'd be Wantin' to have a dance
Right then I knew this thing was out of my hands

Suddenly I heard love songs playing real soft on the jukebox
Somebody ordered up moonlight and painted stars all across the sky
Is it gravity or destiny either way there's nothing I can do
Looks like I picked the wrong night not to fall in love with you

Suddenly I heard love songs playing real soft on the jukebox
Somebody ordered up moonlight and painted stars all across the sky
Is it gravity or destiny either way there's nothing I can do
Looks like I picked the wrong night not to fall in love with you

Looks like a wrong night not to fall in love with you

"You Are Always There For Me"

"You Are Always There For Me"



I know sometimes I'm like a child
I disappoint you so
And how you keep forgiving me
I'll never never know
When I stumble and I fall
And need love desperately
You are always there for me

Like an oak in the wind
Like an old familiar friend
Like a harbor in a wild and raging sea
Darlin' you are always there for me

When I take your love for granted
Like I often do
It's not that I don't need you so
It's not I don't love you
It's just that I'm a fool sometimes
Just too blind to see
That you are always there for me

Like an oak in the wind
Like an old familiar friend
Like a harbor in a wild and raging sea
Darlin' you are always there for me

Like an oak in the wind
Like an old familiar friend
Like a harbor in a wild and raging sea
Darlin' you are always there for me

"You Can Take The Wings Off Me"

"You Can Take The Wings Off Me"



Now I've never been in with the fast crowd
I've never been closer than just a little over the line
I know those nights I'd find great temptations
I go home to bed alone
Pull the covers up over my mind

I let it go by and said I'd save my feelings
But until I met you
I hardly used them at all
I should say no
Oh whoah I don't want to
Honey you will be the first one
To watch this angel fall

So you can take the wings off me
Lay them down so carefully
Hold me close tonight you'll see
I am yours and you can take the wings off me

Oh you can take the wings off me
Oh lay them down so carefully
Oh I should say no
Oh whoah I don't want to
I am yours and you can take the wings off me

"You Keep Me Hangin' On"

"You Keep Me Hangin' On"



Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on

Why do you keep a comin' around
Playin' with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me

Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on

You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again

You claim you still care for me
But your heart and soul need to be free
Now that you got your freedom baby
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else

Why don't you be a man about it
And set me free
You don't care a thing about me
You're just using me
So get out get out get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on

Keep me hangin' on

Keep me hangin' on

"You Lie"

"You Lie"



We lie in the dark I know you're awake
The only sounds are the sounds this old house makes
But, Oh, how I long, I long to hear your voice
Desperate to talk, yearning to touch
Burning inside 'cause I want you so much
So I say I need you and leave you no choice

You lie you don't want to hurt me
So you lie, buy a little time, and I go along
What else can I do, maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you
So you lie 'til you can find a way to say goodbye
You lie

How long until you just can't go on
And the urge to break loose is just too strong
You should let go that's what you want to do
Oh but you don't know, you don't know
If it's the right thing to do

You lie you don't want to hurt me
So you lie, buy a little time, and I go along
What else can I do, maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you
So you lie 'til you can find a way to say goodbye
You lie

"You Must Really Love Me"

"You Must Really Love Me"



Tell me why do you put up with my foolish ways
You never take to heart the crazy things I say
Oh I know you could walk out on me any day
There must be a darn good reason why you'd even want to stay

You must really love me
How can it be true
There are things you'll take from me
I won't even take from you
Everytime I fall apart
You always pull me through
You must really love me
As much as I love you
You must really love me
As much as I love you

I appreciate the honesty you've shown to me
And the way you tell your friends that you belong to me
And when you hold me tight it always sets me free
Oh this must be the way that true love was meant to be

You must really love me
How can it be true
There are things you'll take from me
I won't even take from you
Everytime I fall apart
You always pull me through
You must really love me
As much as I love you
You must really love me
As much as I love you
And Lord I'm glad you do

"You Really Better Love Me After This"

"You Really Better Love Me After This"



Your letter found me here in Denver
I've changed though since I've been here
I've learned there's more to life
Than your promises

There's someone here
In Colorado
Who won't forget tomorrow
So you really better love me after this

On a bus somewhere in Kansas
Heading home to take my chances
Lord I hope this time you mean
The things you say

I won't say this is the last time
And let you play with my mind
But you really better love me after this

Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
Doesn't really mean that much to you
But you really better love me

As the bus pulls in the station
I can see you waiting
And I believe we both forget
What we can't forgive

Now we're holding to each other
I can feel my heart recover
And I know you'll gonna love me after this

Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
I guess we really mean that much to you
Oh you're really gonna love you
Oh you're really gonna love me
Oh you're really gonna love me

"You Remember Me"

"You Remember Me"



They say no one should call on you
Unless She's your permission to
But me, I just came anyway
I couldn't care less what you say
'Cause I know you from long before
You hid behind a stained glass door
And walked around
And looked your old friends up and down

But anyway, I thought I'd come give you a look
At where you're from and let you know
I still recall what a child you are underneath it all

You remember me the funny way I cry
The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye
The funny way I wind up lost when someone sets me free
Why sure, you remember me

Well, I won't take up your whole day
I've said about all I have to say
I guess I'll be moving on
I know you'll be glad to see me gone
Tonight is our last night in town
So don't worry 'bout me hanging around
Tomorrow night it's Calgary
And you'll be good and rid of me

You remember me the funny way I cry
The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye
The funny way I wind up lost when someone sets me free
Why sure, you remember me

You remember me the funny way I cry
The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye
The funny way I wind up lost when someone sets me free
Why sure, you remember me
