"I Don't Want To Be Alone"

"I Don't Want To Be Alone"



My nerves are shot, the coffee's cold.
Wish that I could be so bold as to walk right up to you and say what I think.
I don't now what you think of me.
And I know everyone can see I'm crazy about you and always will be.
Where's women's lib when you need it the most.
Or what is mama who said you're not suppose to flaunt yourself like that as to no in between.
Or maybe it's not that I'm afraid, it's just that the last move I made
Embarrased me to death and made me want to hide.
So if you've ever been embarrased before meet me half way and I'll know for sure.
At least we'll still be friends if I mess up again.
Cause it ain't easy meeting someone new.
Especially when that someone is you.
It ain't easy by being by yourself.
It's no fun to be alone, and I don't want to be alone.
Cause it ain't easy meeting someone new.
Especially when that someone is you.
It ain't easy by being by yourself.
It's no fun to be alone, and I don't want to be alone.
My nerves are shot, the coffee's cold.
Wish that I could be so bold as to walk right up to you and say what I think.

"I Don't Want To Mention Any Names"

"I Don't Want To Mention Any Names"



I've got a story to tell, would you mind listening.
I can always count on you we're such good friends.
And I need to talk about my situation and you're the only one who'll understand.
Now someone's got designs on my baby.
She's making her intentions very plain.
We both know this ole gal that I'm talking about, but I don't want to mention any names.

Well she's asked him to slow dance way too often.
She's made suggestions I don't like at all.
I'm trying to let her know that I'm wise to her game, but I don't wanna mention any names.

Well I can understand why she'd want him.
Oh you've even said yourself he's quite a prize.
She's about a good of friend as you are.
Come to think about it she's just about your size.
If she don't back off there's gonna be some trouble.
I'm prepared to make that very plain.
I sure hope I've said enough, and just between the two of us.
Cause I don't wanna mention any names.

Well she's asked him to slow dance way too often.
She's made suggestions I don't like at all.
I'm trying to let her know that I'm wise to her game, but I don't wanna mention any names.

"I Heard Her Cryin'"

"I Heard Her Cryin'"



The whole night in the kitchen
Saying words we'll both regret
And you scream you we're leaving
And you cursed the day we met

The sound goes above the slamming door
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
So loud it made us stop
It was the sound of a teardrop

When I heard her crying
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her crying

Well I'd have given anything
For time to erase
When I turned around and saw
Those little tears roll down her face

Oh my heart nearly broke in two
When she said
Mommy what did I do
To make you and daddy mad
Oh I'm sorry I was bad

I looked at you and you looked at me
And we felt each other's shame
Kneeling down to hold our child
Said she was not to blame
Now sometimes when we're angry
And say things that aren't true
We still love each other
And baby we love you

When I heard her crying
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her crying

"I Keep On Lovin' You"

"I Keep On Lovin' You"



Love takes the patience of Job
That's what my Mama always said
Faith is the belief in something more than what you know
That's what the Good Book says
You gotta play the cards you got
Who knows what fate is holding
At times you gotta go without knowing where you're going

That's why I keep on lovin' you
I keep on lovin' you
Through the baby don't leave mes
And never will agains
And I promise tos
I keep on lovin' you

Lord knows we've had our share of fights
Our sleepless nights, our ups and downs
We've had plenty and then some of baby I'm gones and turnarounds
Sometimes I swear it might be easier to throw in the towel
Someday we're gonna look back
Say look at us now

That's why I keep on lovin' you
I keep on lovin' you
Through the baby don't leave mes
And never will agains
And I promise tos
I keep on lovin' you

Keep on lovin' you
Through the I take it backs... I didn't mean it like thats
I'd never hurt yous... Oh, I keep on lovin' you

I keep on lovin' you... I keep on lovin' you
Through the I take it backs... I didn't mean it like that
I'd never hurt yous... Oh, I keep on lovin' you
I keep on lovin' you... I keep on lovin' you

"I Know How He Feels"

"I Know How He Feels"



When I heard that familiar voice
My heart stopped dead in its tracks
Across the room I could see him there
A ghost from my past
But he's too caught up to notice me
She must be his new love
I never dreamed that it would hurt this much
It's just

I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh, how he feels
How soft his kiss is
And it cuts right down to the bone
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes its real
Oh, I've been there
(And) I know how he feels

As long as I kept him out of sight
I kept from goin' out of my mind
Tried to believe that leavin' him
Was somehow justified
But tonight there's no denying
What a love like his is worth
He once looked at me
The way he's lookin' at her
What a lucky girl

I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh, how he feels
How soft his kiss is
And it cuts right down to the bone
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes its real
Oh, I've been there
(And) I know how he feels

And it's killin' me
Oh, I know how he feels

"I Know I'll Have A Better Day Tomorrow"

"I Know I'll Have A Better Day Tomorrow"



Well I can't make it through this world by myself
I need heaven's help to make through the day
And if I go to bed tonight
And remember to say my prayers
I know I'll have a better day tomorrow

Cause you've done what you said you'd do
And you've given me lots of love
And I've never known such peace
Since I met you
I'm so proud to be your child
And I'm doing the best I can
And I know I'll have a better day tomorrow

Well you've done what you said you'd do
And you've given me lots of love
And I've never known such peace
Since I met you
I'm so proud to be your child
And I'm doing the best I can
And I know I'll have a better day tomorrow

I know I'll have a better day tomorrow

"I Like It That Way"

"I Like It That Way"



I've got someone in my life
Who loves me wrong or right
And I like it that way
He gives me room to breathe
But he's there for me
And I like it that way
I like it that way

I like the way he says me name
And how he's not afraid
To open up and let his feelings show
He's exactly what I need
He loves me honestly
One look in his eyes
Tells me all I need to me know

When he's on overtime
I get that little ache inside
And I like it that way
We're as close as two can be
But he's still him and I'm still me
And I like it that way
Yeah, I like it that way

"I Sacrificed More Than You'll Ever Lose"

"I Sacrificed More Than You'll Ever Lose"



I fed the children
And I kissed them goodnight
You fed the jukebox
Till they turn out the lights
I bought the bacon
While you bought the booze
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose

Needing new clothes with the money you spent
On barbills and motels and women you met
But I stood the heartache that you put me through
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose

I gave up so much
And now I'm giving up you
It's too late to make up for
The love that you used

I've had enough
I don't want you around
Don't look at me
Like I let you down
You say I'm to blame
But who's fooling who
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose
Yeah I sacrificed more than you'll ever lose

"I Want A Cowboy"

"I Want A Cowboy"



Everybody told me he was dream,
Picture perfect, like he'd stepped right off the silver screen.
Said that he would sweep me off of my feet,
But I'm still standin' here, no he didn't do it for me..

Cuase I don't go for all that wine and dine,
With that ray ban, fake tan, never mind,
I want a down-home, up with the sun rise man,
A pick-up truck driving, bull riding, strong steaded hand,
I want the Wranglers, Stetson, and all that stuff,

I Want the real McCoy, I want a cowboy.
I'm tired of talking about it, and wasting my time..

"I Want To Hear It From You"

"I Want To Hear It From You"



If all our love is through
If you found someone new
Then I want to hear it from you

If there is no mistake
And if my heart must break
I want to hear it from you

Just the thought of losing you
Is more than I can stand
But this hurt would be much worse
If I heard it secondhand
If there's no hope at all
If my world must fall
I want to hear it from you

So tell me now
If things are not the way they used to be
I want to hear it from your lips
You owe that much to me

If all our love is through
If you found someone new
Then I want to hear it from you
