Let Me Count The Ways

Let Me Count The Ways


Here goes one more empty night
Lonely lady foolish pride
Do I need you deep inside?
Let me count the ways

Losing tracks of tears I've shed
Feeling empty as my bed
Could you give me love instead
Let me count the ways

Who could count the times
You're on my mind more and more
Who could count the waves
That reach out for the shore

Days and nights are all the same
One part lonely, two parts pain
Do I need you back again?
Let me count the ways

Who could count the times
You're on my mind more and more
Who could count the waves
That reach out for the shore

Days and nights are all the same
One part lonely, two parts pain
Do I need you back again?
Let me count the ways
Let me count the ways

Let The Good Times Roll

Let The Good Times Roll


It opens up with the same old scene
You pushing me on that tire swing
Up so high I could almost touch the sky

The picture fades to you and me
Caught stealing a kiss behind the tree
It's so real it's like you never said goodbye

Every night I turn the lights down low and take out that old video
I hold your pillow close in the TV's glow and let the good times roll

The road moves on and it always will
But I can make time stand still
I can turn it back and make things just the same

And though you're gone, you're still here
You're far away but always near, I can see your face
And hear you call my name , freeze frame

Every night I turn the lights down low and take out that old video
I hold your pillow close in the TV's glow and let the good times roll

When it comes to an end, I can play it all again
You went away but the good old days are here to stay

Every night I turn the lights down low and take out that old video
I hold your pillow close in the TV's glow and let the good times roll

Now it's time to turn the lights down low and let the good times roll
Let 'em roll

Little Things

Little Things


Love can't be measured with diamonds and gold
Before you spend your money I oughta let you know
If you wanna get to me, try the little things

Don't need that mansion on top of the hill
Too many rooms with nothing to fill
You can't furnish me with the little things

Rub my back, make me laugh
Hold me while I dream
All it takes to make my day
Is to tell me you love me, little things

It doesn't matter what mood I'm in
I always melt when you begin
Whispering little things

Rub my back, make me laugh
Hold me while I dream
All it takes to make my day
Is to tell me you love me

Oh, little things

Rainy walks, a midnight talk
Dance me on your feet
Hold me close, don't let go

All I'll ever need is a single rose
A kiss hello, that smile upon your face
The tender way, you say my name
Takes my breath away

Little things, oh yeah, aha

Love can't be measured with diamonds and gold
All I'll ever need, oh, is little things
Mmm, little things, little things

Lizzie And The Rainman

Lizzie And The Rainman


He came ridin' in on the sunrise of a hot west Texas day
A fancy man in a painted wagon with some fancy things to say
Looks like you folks need some water, well water is my game
And for the small price of $100 I betcha I can make it rain

Step back non believers or the rain will never come
Somebody start that fire a-burning somebody beat the drum
You know some may think I'm crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over you folks are gonna see some rain

They all just stood there a-staring trying to believe
But there was one named Lizzie Cooper who said he was a lying cheat
You say you call yourself a rainman, well you oughta be ashamed
Starting all these people dreamin', thinking you can make it rain

Step back non believers or the rain will never come
Somebody keep that fire a-burning somebody beat the drum
You know some may think I'm crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over you folks are going see some rain

Hey Lizzie, well a mans got to have a dream
And if you can't walk on the inside with me, I'll meet you in between
Oh come with me Lizzie and the stars will right your name
And if you still think I'm lying to you, look younder there comes the rain

Step back non believers for the rain will never come
Somebody keep that fire a-burning somebody beat the drum
You know some folks think I'm crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over you folks are going see some rain

Repeat and fade

Lonely At The Right Time

Lonely At The Right Time


I can't belive you took the time to call,
You say you think you love me after all,
You didn't know what you were doing then,
So now you want to do it all again,
You know a perfect way to end the fight,
I gotta tell you it's your lucky night,

(Chorus)
You caught me lonely at the right time,
You better hurry 'for I change my mind,
Tonight it isn't gonna be the same,
We'll have the pleasure and forget the pain,
I feel the need to feel you holdin' me,
Tomorrow you can be a memory,
You caught me lonely,
Lonely at the right time,

No, I'm not sayin' you can have a key,
I want your lovin' and my liberty,
You say you dream about me all night long,
That different tune is still the same old song,
I know your lyin' but thats nothin' new,
Don't get to thinking I've forgiven you,

(Chorus)

Well if it breaks your heart, I'm not too concerned,
The bed's the same but the table has turned,

(Chorus)

Love Knows We Tried

Love Knows We Tried


It's time to pack up all the dreams and walk away
No matter what our hearts might say
Now we know we're at the end of a love
So it's foolish to pretend, why try

We cried clinging to each other tenderly
We were the best that we could be
Through the sweet and gentle years
And now after all these tears we cried

Love knows we tried
Love knows we tried
We gave it all we had and more
Love knows we tried
We've got the memory and someday we may see

Goodbye doesn't mean we really didn't try
So you can hold your head up high
And as I walk away from you knowing well
We did all that we could do inside

Love knows we tried
Oh, love knows we tried
Love knows we tried
Love knows we tried

Love Me Like You Used To

Love Me Like You Used To


In a cozy little restaurant for lovers
It seems so out of place for you and me
We used to play around under the covers
But now it's just a place to watch T.V.

Chorus:
So love me like you used to when our love was brand new
And darlin' when we're through you can love me again
And hold me like you want to instead of like you have to
Love me like you used to love me when you used to love me

Baby we could use a long vacation
But the trouble here is bound to tag along
We used to be each others inspiration
When it only took my touch to turn you on

Chorus 1X

Well we used to sit and talk about forever
But now we hardly ever talk at all
We walked a lot of tight ropes together
We always caught each other when we'd fall

Chorus 1X

Love me like you used to when you used to love me

Love Thing

Love Thing


It's kind of gentle and easy
Something to do with the heart
A sweet song crying way down deep
You've got to play it, baby
No way to say it
It's a love thing
It's got no name
It's just a feeling inside
It's a full moon
A summer rain
And when I'm holding you tight
It's a love thing

It isn't something to hurry, a-a
It takes a step at a time
When it comes sneaking up on you
You don't regret it, baby
It's copacetic, it's a...

It's a love thing

It's got no name
It's just a feeling inside
It's a full moon
A summer rain
And when I'm holding you tight
It's a love thing
So when it comes sneaking up on you
Go on and let it, baby
You won't regret it

It's a love thing
It's got no name
It's just a feeling inside
It's a full moon
A summer rain
And when I'm holding you tight
It's a love thing

Love's Gonna Live Here

Love's Gonna Live Here


Oh the sun's gonna shine in my life once more
Love's gonna live here again.
Things are gonna be the way they were before
Love's gonna live here again.

Love's gonna live here, love's gonna live here
Love's gonna live here again.
No more loneliness, only happiness
Love's gonna live here again.

I hear bells a-r9ng9n', I hear birds are singin'
Love's gonna live here again.

And I hear bees a-hummin' and I know the days are comin'
Love's gonna live here again.

Love's gonna live here, love's gonna live here
Love's gonna live here again.
No more loneliness, only happiness,
Love's gonna live here again.

Love's gonna live here, love's gonna live here
Love's gonna live here again.
No more loneliness, only happiness,
Love's gonna live here again.
Love's gonna live here again.

Love's The Answer

Love's The Answer


If you think it's hard in this day and time
To hold your man like I been holding mine
There's no secret just some little things to do
It worked for me and it's bound to work for you

A loving smile will start his day out right
A goodbye kiss will bring him home at night
Reach out to him when he needs a helping hand
Touch him gently so he knows you understand

Be proud of him when you know he's done his best
Let him know you think he's better thant he rest
If you wanna hold your man this is the way
Love him more today than you did yesterday
Love's the answer
