"Under These Conditions"

"Under These Conditions"

I know we're both married
Yet we're both alone
He's always working
And she's never home
If we got together
It would be so good
But under these conditions
I don't think we should

'Cause we both have children
And they need us around
Although we're both willing
We can't let 'em down
As much as we want to
You know where we stand
Under these conditions
I don't think we can

We love each other
But it's only in dreams
But we have to get used to the fact
It's just one of those things
We'll never know how
This love could feel
And under these conditions
We never will

"Victim Of Life's Circumstances"

"Victim Of Life's Circumstances"

It's 6:05 on Sunday mornin'
And I was supposed to've left for Memphis late last night
But I stopped at one of them old highway places
And 'cause I did I'll sleep in Tarren County Jail tonight

Well I started out tonight with good intentions
But I ended up gettin' sidways drinkin' wine
Well the last thing I remember we was rollin'
And something hit my head and knocked me from my conscious mind

[Chorus:]
And I'm a victim of life's circumstances
Well I was raised around bar rooms and Friday night dances
Singin' them old country songs
And half the time ending up some place I don't belong

I said, "Jailor, hey, what y'all got me charged with?"
Well he looked at me and halfway closed one eye
Well he said, "To mean to say you don't remember
Cuttin' up some fool with that bone handled knife?"

[Chorus 2x]

"Waitin' For Your Love"

"Waitin' For Your Love"

Well I've been spendin' all my spare time
Sittin' home alone
Listenin' for the front door
And starin' at the phone

Ever since that night in Texas
You're all that's in my brain
And long distance ain't the answer
My little heart can't stand the strain

[Chorus:]
I'm a waitin' for your love
Waitin' every night and day
Hopin' you'll come by and get me, baby
Take me far away
I'm a waitin' for your love
Girl, I ain't afraid to say
That you're all I ever wanted
So come and steal my heart away

Well I was never one to beg
You know I always played it cool... so cool
But you've got me on my knees now
You're the exception to the rule

Well there ain't no turnin' back
You know I'm too far gone
So I keep the front door open
And keep the porch light on

[Chorus 2x]

You're all I ever wanted
So come and steal my heart away

"We Could Have Been"

"We Could Have Been"

Today at work I overheard a name
I knew it wasn't yours but it touched me just the same
It felt so good to have you in my mind
I guess I'm the sentimental kind

I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been

You were so brave when I was shy
I made you laugh when something made you cry
And I don't think we ever said goodbye
Now I'll always wonder why

I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been

A time or two
I thought about calling
But something always gets in the way
Maybe I'm afraid you'd really answer
What would I say to you

I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been

We could have been

"We Had It All"

"We Had It All"

We closed down the Border Cantina
And drank margaritas till dawn
You were my sweet senorita
And I was your handsome Don Jaun
We danced like there was no tomorrow
We laughed and we lived and we loved
That moment in time that we borrowed
Never did last long enough

[Chorus:]
Yeah, we had it all going our way for a little while
We had it all right in the palm of our hands
We had it all going our way for a little while
Oh, how I wish we could go back there again

We thought we were too young to marry
Slowly we drifted apart
Well baby, I miss you like crazy
Those memories still burn in my heart
Oh, let's find a way to rekindle
That flame that burned long ago
These days just can't hold a candle
To those sweet nights in old Mexico

[Chorus 2x]

Yeah, we had it all going our way for a little while
Oh, how I wish we could go back there again
Oh, how I wish we could go back there again

"We Won't Dance"

"We Won't Dance"

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

I kid you not we were hot
When the weekend came we'd dance non-stop
No jitterbug no substitute
No twist and turn no crasha nd burn
Could top us two

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

As I dipped you down in your yellow dress
We'd brush the floor in a slow caress
As minutes turned to a rising sun
We'd leave the day to rest
Our dancing done

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

If I were God and controlled what is
I'd steal your shoes so you couldn't dance with his
Well I'm not all that I could be
But you'll never dance with him
The way you danced with me

We won't dance no more
We won't dance no more
Well I'm not all that I could be
But you'll never dance with him
The way you danced with me

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

"What Child Is This?"

"What Child Is This?"

What Child is this, who laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here,
The silent Word is pleading.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through,
The Cross be borne, for me, for you:
Hail, hail, the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh;
Come peasant, king to own Him.
The King of Kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Raise, raise, the song on high,
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
Joy joy for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

"What The Cowgirls Do"

"What The Cowgirls Do"

Have you ever been down to Texas
Down around San Antone
They love to go all night and treat you right
And party till the cows come home

[Chorus:]
I love it when the let their hair down
And dance real close to you
You know I'm a sucker baby for what the cowgirls do
What the cowgirls do

They ain't no different up in Oklahoma
They ain't afraid to stay up til dawn
They love to cut a run and chug a lug
Longnecks til their money's all gone

[Chorus]

There's cowgirls all across the country
From Baton Rouge to Bangor Maine
It ain't hard to see they'll be the death of me
They're gonna drive my little heart insane

[Chorus]

"What They All Call Love"
(feat. Faith Hill)

"What They All Call Love"
(feat. Faith Hill)

It ain't about you, it ain't about me
It's about this love we found that has to be
I never questioned that look in your eyes
And you never doubted how I felt inside

[Chorus:]
We found passion and grace in each other's face
And our heart's will now beat as one
For we both know a place where our souls have embraced
I think it's what they all call love

This gift you've given humbles me
True companions we'll always be
For so long we've waited to feel what we feel
We've finally tasted something that's real

[Chorus 2x]

I think it's what they all call love

"What You Don't Say"
(feat. LeAnn Rimes)

"What You Don't Say"
(feat. LeAnn Rimes)

Sometimes this old world gets to me
I sure can be a jerk
But you always see the best in me
God knows you've seen the worst

You know when to let me be
Pull yourself real close to me
How to take my breath away
You don't care who's right or wrong
I know whose side you're on
It's more than the love that we make
It's what you don't say

Man, I should have been the death of me
I sure can run it in the ground
When you come lie here next to me
Girl, you bring me back around

You know when to let me be
Pull yourself real close to me
How to take my breath away
You don't care who's right or wrong
I know whose side you're on
It's more than the love that we make
It's what you don't say

You know when to let me be
Pull yourself real close to me
How to take my breath away
You don't care who's right or wrong
I know whose side you're on
It's more than the love that we make
It's what you don't say
It's what you don't say
It's what you don't say
