"You Made Me Live, Love And Die"

"You Made Me Live, Love And Die"

I cried and cried my heart out
But what good does it do
Crying never bothers
Anyone so cold as you
I've thought the whole thing over
And now I'll go
And find a better place
Where angels heal
Broken hearts like mine
You made me live
You made me love
And now you'll make me die

I'll never live or love again
There's no need now to try
I'll say farewell to this old world
This is my last goodbye
You made me live
You made me love
And now you'll make me die

[steel]

And just for night is over
I'll never see the day
I'll hold your picture to my heart
Then I'll be on my way
I'll say farewell...

"You Remain"

"You Remain"

What do you do with the sands of time
When they carve out lines around your eyes
I can close my fists up good and tight
But I can't hold back the sands of time

What do you do with a memory
That just hangs around and stares at me
I can tear that frame down off the wall
But it won't erase the things I saw

Night and day
Night and day
You remain
You remain

What do you do with old regrets
There's a box full underneath the bed
Just close enough not to forget
But do what do you do with old regrets

There's old house key in a kitchen drawer
To the door I can't unlock no more
Sometimes I hold that key real tight
But what do you do after goodbye

Night and day
Night and day
You remain
You remain

Night and day
Night and day
You remain
You remain

"You Show Me Yours (And I'll Show You Mine)"

"You Show Me Yours (And I'll Show You Mine)"

If you're feeling salty I'm your tequila
If you've got the freedom well I've got the time
There ain't nothin' sweeter than naked emotions
So you show me yours fun and I'll show you mine

No ma'am I know this ain't all that you've ever been used to
You with your rings of your fingers and time on your hands
Sometimes it's nice to have somebody nice to be close to
God knows I've been there before you and I understand
If you're feeling salty...

[guitar]

I wish that I were the answer to all of your questions
Lord knows I know you wish you were the answer to mine
So darlin' if you ain't got a thing but a change of direction
Lord knows I know you'll be something I'm lucky to find
If you're feeling salty...
If you show me yours fun and I'll show you mine

"You Were It"

"You Were It"

You were it
You're the one, the only one who understood it all
And when we fought out loud
You'd be the one who would make me feel so small
You could kill
You could hurt
You could bring out the worst in everyone you knew
But no one could ever bring the worst out of you

And I am fine
All the pain is gone
I once had a heart
Now I have a song

And you were sly
You were fast
You were built to last
And you lasted 'til the end
And I would fight
I would cry and lay down and die
And then get up again

And you could kill
You could hurt
You could bring out the worst in everyone you knew
But no one could ever get the worst of you

And I am fine
All the pain is gone
I once had a heart
Now I have a song

And I am fine
All the pain is gone
I once had a heart
Now I have a song

And I am fine
All the pain is gone
I once had a heart
Now I have a song

"You Wouldn't Cross The Street (To Say Goodbye)"

"You Wouldn't Cross The Street (To Say Goodbye)"

Today, I stood across the street an' watched you leave with him,
Right before my disbelieving eyes.
And when you saw me standing there, you turned away from me.
And you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

Once you said you'd do most anything to keep our love.
You'd tear out your tongue before you'd tell me lies.
Once you said you'd go to any lengths to be with me.
Today, you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

[Instrumental break]

Once you said you'd do most anything to keep our love.
You'd tear out your tongue before you'd tell me lies.
Once you said you'd crawl on hands and knees to be with me.
Today, you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

"You'll Always Have Someone"

"You'll Always Have Someone"

Discontent, you must leave,
Leaving love, leaving me.
So go away for your dreams to come true.
But should young dreams grow old,
And warm friendships grow cold,
There'll be someone waiting for you.

And if you ever find,
That fate is unkind,
An' the devil starts takin' his dues.
When your fair weather friends,
Leave when fair weather ends,
There'll be someone waiting for you.

You'll always have someone who loves you.
You're never alone, don't you see?
And when your world's slowin' down,
You'll need someone around:
Let that someone always be me.

[Instrumental break]

You'll always have someone who loves you.
You're never alone, don't you see?
And when your world's slowin' down,
You'll need someone around:
An' let that someone always be me.

"You'll Never Know"

"You'll Never Know"

You'll never know just how much I love you
You'll never know just how much I care
And if I tried I still couldn't hide my love for you
You ought to know for heaven I told you so
A million or more times
You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

[fiddle - guitar]

You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

"You're Only In My Arms (To Cry On My Shoulder)"

"You're Only In My Arms (To Cry On My Shoulder)"

You're only in my arms to cry on my shoulder
Over someone you're trying to forget
You're wearing a smile, but it's just a disguise
I know your heart is breakin' 'cause there's tears in your eyes

So have your little cry and when it's all over
You'll just say goodbye and part
'Cause you're only in my arms to cry on my shoulder
And you're crying your way into my heart

[Repeat both verses]

And you're crying your way into my heart

"Your Memory Won't Die In My Grave"

"Your Memory Won't Die In My Grave"

Been feelin' kind of free
But I sure do feel lonesome
Baby's takin' a trip
But she ain't takin' me

I've been feelin' kinda free
But I'd rather feel your arms around me
'Cause you're takin' away
Ev'rything that I wanted

There's an old hollow tree
Where we carved our initials
And I said I love you
And you said you love me

It's a mem'ry today
It'll be a mem'ry tomorrow
I hope you'll be happy someday
(And) Your mem'ry won't die in my grave

[repeat last two verses]

"Yours Love"

"Yours Love"

May the Lord's shining grace be yours, love
May the happiest face be yours, love
May the last fingertips
That touch these two lips
As life from me slips be yours, love

May the fruit of my toil be yours, love
May the food from my soil be yours love
And from this moment on
May a love that is strong
And lives on and on be yours, love

May the sons that I raise be yours, love
May the comforts that I praise be yours, love
And if I ever get weak
May the love words I speak
And the arms that I seek be yours, love
May the Lord's shining grace...
May the Lord's shining grace...
