"Sing You Back To Me"

"Sing You Back To Me"



I'd like to write a song, a sweet and simple thing
And if I do it right, it'd the only one I'd sing
'Cause it would bring me everything I need
A song that I could sing you back to me

Sing you back, bring you back
A miracle of page and pen
You'd hear it and be here again
And always and forever there would be
A song that I could sing you back to me

There must be a million words and all I have to do
Is lay my heart upon those rare and magic few
Why can't it be as easy as it seems?
A song that I could sing you back to me

Sing you back, bring you back
A miracle of page and pen
You'd hear it and be here again
And always and forever there would be
A song that I could sing you back, bring you back
A song that I could sing you back to me

"Some Days"

"Some Days"



If you see dark skies in my green eyes
It's just that I can't find no cover
These ghosts that haunt me
They get me when they want me
And some days are better than others

I didn't sleep last night, I guess that's the price
You pay for a soul that's troubled
And curse or blessing I'm here confessing
Some days are better than others

I have these moments of weakness
But I've had a lifetime of strength
And I know I will defeat this
But that's not what my heart wants to think

And even tomorrow is tinged with sorrow
When one fool longs for another
This can't last forever, just like the weather
Some days are better than others

If you see dark skies in my sad eyes
It just means that I can't find no cover
These ghosts that haunt me
They take me when they want me
And some days are better than others
Some days are better than others

"Something So Right"

"Something So Right"



You've got the cool water
When the fever runs high
You've got the look of lovelight in your eyes
And I was in crazy motion
'Til you calmed me down
It took a little time
But you calmed me down

Something goes wrong
I'm the first to admit it
First to admit it
Last one to know
Something goes right
Well it's likely to lose me
It's apt to confuse me
It's such an unusual sight
Oh, I can't, can't get used to something so right
Something so right

They've got a wall in China
It's a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners they made it strong
I've got a wall around me
That you can't even see
It took a little time
To get next to me

Something goes wrong
I'm the first to admit it
First to admit it
Last one to know
Something goes right
Well it's likely to lose me
It's apt to confuse me
It's such an unusual sight
Oh, I swear, I can't get used to something so right
Something so right

Some people never say the words "I love you"
It's not their style to be so bold
Some people never say those words "I love you"
Like a child they're longing to be told

Something goes wrong
I'm the first to admit it
First to admit it
Last one to know
Something goes right
Well it's likely to lose me
It's apt to confuse me
'cause it's such an unusual sight
I swear I can't, can't get used to something so right
Something so right

"Squeeze Me In"
(feat. Garth Brooks)

"Squeeze Me In"
(feat. Garth Brooks)



Honey, I know you got a good job
Out there making all that dough
They keep late working that overtime
And I don't ever see you no more
Guess you're not checking your message machine
Seems like you're never in
Oh, but I got a hunch, if we can just do lunch
I can get your attention again
I know you got your schedule and you're keeping it tight
You got something going morning, noon and night
But I got something here I think you're gonna like
Honey, can you squeeze me in

Whoever said it's a man's world
Don't know what he's talking about
You got me working around the clock
Honey trying to figure you out
I know time is money
There's more to life honey
Than how much you can spend
You gotta make a little time for the good times
Honey can you squeeze me in

I got it circled in red on the calendar, baby
You told me that tonight's the night
I've got the Champaign chilled
I've got a gourmet meal, soft music and candlelight
I try to get you on the phone and I get stuck on hold
I guess you keep getting sidetracked
I've been faxing you love notes all day long
I know you got your schedule and your keeping it tight
You got something going morning noon and night
But i got something here I think your gonna like
Honey can you squeeze me in

Who ever said it's a mans world
Sure knows what he's talking about
You got me working around the clock
Honey trying to figure you out
I know time is money
There's more to life honey
Than how much you can spend
You gotta make a little time for the good times
Honey can you squeeze me in

Who ever said it's a mans world
Don't know what he's talking about
You got me working around the clock
Honey trying to figure you out
I know time is money
There's more to life honey
Than how much you can spend
You gotta make a little time for the good times
Honey can you squeeze me in

Let's make a little time for the good times
Honey can you squeeze me in

"Standing Out In A Crowd"

"Standing Out In A Crowd"


Mother said: "Stand up straight.
"Don't let your classmates make,
"You feel like you don't belong.
"So not like the rest of them,
"Someday, the best of them,
"Will realize they were wrong."
But in my world, different, an' then lonely
The last place I wanted to be...

Was standing out in a crowd,
Where the spotlight finds you and singles you out.
What are they whisperin' about?
You're thinkin' up ways to take up less space...
I can't see the grace in it...
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)

Too short, too tall;
Flower against the wall...
The last one chosen to play.
Too smart, too dumb,
Too strange a place to be from...
Same shoes every day.
With all these ways to be different,
Then maybe that's how you fit in.

By standing out in the crowd,
Where the spotlight finds you and singles you out.
What are they whisperin' about?
You're thinkin' up ways to take up less space...
Instead of embracing it...
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)

It's funny how now,
It's not such a bad place to be.
Standing out in a crowd. (Standing out in a crowd.)
Standing out in a crowd.

Standing out in a crowd, (Standing out.)
Where the spotlight finds you and singles you out.
What are they whisperin' about?
You're thinkin' up ways to take up less space...
There's no escapin' it...
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)

(Standin' out.)

Sweet little Jesus Boy
They made You be born in a manguh (manger)

"Sweet Love"

"Sweet Love"


Summer breeze easin' back the curtains in my bedroom.
Ceilin' fan stirrin' up the heat of the afternoon.
I'm puttin' on my lipstick, my ruby red lipstick...
Nice an' thick, baby.

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'.
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby.
Sweet love.

Cotton sheets out there on the line, swingin' to and fro.
Clawford tub drip, drip, drip, ah, honey, nice an' slow.
I'm puttin' on my new dress,
My pretty new blue, blue dress, oh yes!

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
It ain't the catchin', it's the fishin'.
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, darlin'.
Sweet love.

Let's get your whispers, honey, tangled up with mine.
Hurry on over an' just take your sweet, sweet time.
Oooh.

[Instrumental break]

(Take your time, baby.)

It ain't the catchin', it's the reachin';
It ain't the Heaven, it's the preachin'.
Anticipation got me waitin'.

It ain't the gettin', it's the wishin';
It ain't the catchin', baby, it's the fishin'.
Anticipation got me waitin' for your sweet love, baby. (Sweet, sweet love.)
Sweet love.

Sweet love, darlin'.
Mmm, mmm, mm.

Summer breeze, straight through my cotton sheets.
Mmm, mmm, mmm, sweet.
Oh, you can leave your hat on baby.
Sweet, love. (Sweet, sweet love.)

"Take A Walk Through Bethlehem"

"Take A Walk Through Bethlehem"



The city's decorated up for Christmas
All the stores are open late tonight
People hurry through the frozen streets
I take a walk...

Every child has a thousand wishes
Every window has a thousand lights
Every soul has a need for peace
I take a walk...

There's a star that still outshines the night
You can find it if you close your eyes
And see the light

Take a walk through Bethlehem
Come and kneel before the lamb
Good news for every man
Walk through Bethlehem

Every night another TV special
Merchants counting down the shopping days
But something's missing underneath the tree
I take a walk...

'Cause every heart longs for more than tinsel
Something more than just a holiday
Come and celebrate the baby King
Let's take a walk

You don't have to travel anywhere
Faith and hope and love will bring you there
Bring you there

Take a walk through Bethlehem
Come and kneel before the lamb
Good news for every man
Walk through Bethlehem

"That Ain't The Way I Heard It"

"That Ain't The Way I Heard It"



After you came in late last night
You said you'd been alone
Just needed some room to clear your mind
A little time away from home

Told me you were down on Highway 9
Down by the river bend
But this town has ears and this town has eyes
And a whole lot of so called friends
Oooh that ain't the way I heard it
Oooh that ain't the way I heard it

Don't you think I wanna trust every word you say
Don't you think I wanna look in your eyes
And feel suspicion slip away
When you say you got nothin' to hide
Oooh that ain't the way I heard it
Oooh that ain't the way I heard it

Throw me out a lifeline baby
Offer me a grain of truth
Treat me with a little bit of dignity
I think I deserve that much from you

Gimme one reason for stayin' cool
Tell me they're no good liars
Don't make me play your pathetic fool
Baby, show me that old desire

After you came in late last night
You said you'd been alone
Just needed some room to clear your mind
A little time away from home

Told me you were down on Highway 9
Down by the river bend
But this town has ears and this town has eyes
And a whole lot of so called friends
Oooh that ain't the way I heard it
Oooh that ain't the way I heard it

"That's What I Like About You"

"That's What I Like About You"



I like a man who's crazy about me
I like a man who can live without me too
That's what I like about you

I like a man who will lay down beside me
I like a man who will stand up to me too
That's what I like about you

I don't want a man to be my twin
Under my thumb, under my skin
Don't want a man like a shadow on the ground
With nothin' else to do but follow me around

I like a man who will cry on my shoulder
Who don't mind if I cry sometimes too
That's what I like about you

You can be soft, honey you can be strong
Maybe that's the reason we get along
Everything you do you do just right
You're tender in love, tough in a fight

I like a man who will lay down beside me
Stand up to me, cry on my shoulder, crazy about me
Can live without me too
That's what I like about
Can't live my life without
That's what I like about you
