"Lonesome Dove"

"Lonesome Dove"



I hear a lonesome dove off in the distance
His cry echoes out through the hills
He's sad that his lover flew off with another
And I know the sorrow he feels

Lonesome dove we're not that different
You sing a sad song but you're not alone
You've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
I know how you feel lonesome dove

I've tried to run from the pain of his memory
But I can't find a place I can hide
And that old lonesome dove is gonna mourn for his love
No matter how far he flies

Lonesome dove we're not that different
You sing a sad song but you're not alone
You've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
I know how you feel lonesome dove

"Love Alone"

"Love Alone"


It's been a long road, but we got here
It wasn't easy, but it was true
We found out through all the bad times
It all comes down to me and you

We held the greatest expectations
Only to find it was not to be
All the dreams we left behind us
Only serve to set us free

[Chorus:]
We don't need no bag of silver
We don't need no fields of gold
Don't it make you high
Make you want to fly
Knowing we can live on love alone?

We made our break straight out of high school
You went your way and I went mine
Everything that we went looking for
Was here inside uss all the time

[Repeat chorus]

[Bridge:]
We have shared every tear
Through the years
For all the laughter and the pain
One thing remains

[Repeat chorus]

"Love Let Go"

"Love Let Go"



Once, I heard the whistle
Of a mournful midnight train
Sing a little duet
With a siren in the rain
They sang about true love
Between the damned and the devout
And right then, for a moment
The fire in me blew out

And for a moment
I felt my shackled heart unchained

It was right then
Instant liberation
It was not long
But I was set free
It was release
For a moment, love let go of me

Once, I saw the moon rise
As the sun climbed into bed
They both shone on each other
'Til the sun blushed ruby red
And then a pair of swallows
Silhouetted 'cross its face
And my heart pirouetted
Through the twilight with their grace

And for a moment
I was not a prisoner of love

It was right then (right then)
A little liberation
It was so quick
But I was set free
It was release
For a moment, love let go of me

It was right then (right then)
A little liberation
It was not long (not long)
But I was set free
It was release (release)
For a moment, love let go of me

(For a moment)
For a moment, love let go of me

"Love Me Or Leave Me Alone"

"Love Me Or Leave Me Alone"


I think you do, then I think you don't
Maybe you will, maybe then you won't
Don't understand, baby, why you can't
Just call it quits if you can't commit

I know what I want, I know how I feel
But I don't want your love if it ain't real, no
I think it's time you made up your mind
Baby, what's your plan? I need to understand it

[Chorus 1:]
Are you gonna love me or leave me?
Don't say that you need me
Not if you really want to let me go
You don't know how much it hurts me
Show me some mercy
Baby, just love me or leave me alone

You needed time, so I gave you that
To figure out where your heart is at
What do you say? Do you go or stay?
Is it no or yes? I shouldn't have to guess if...

[Chorus 2:]
You're gonna love me or leave me
Don't say that you need me
Not if you really want to let me go
You don't know how much it hurts me
Show me some mercy
Baby, just love me or leave me alone

[Repeat chorus 1]

"Love Wouldn't Lie To Me"

"Love Wouldn't Lie To Me"



I've played it over in my head
Thought about the words you said
Laid awake in my bed
It's gone, gone, gone

I've tried to make it make some sense
How it came and how it went
It's still the same damn consequence
It's gone, gone, gone

Love shouldn't lie to me
Love couldn't lie to me
Love wouldn't lie to me
But it did

People come and people go
I put on a real good show
How I do it, I don't know
It's gone, gone, gone

It's all hanging by a thread
I try to see a day ahead
I only see the past instead
It's gone, gone, gone

Love shouldn't lie to me
Love couldn't lie to me
Love wouldn't lie to me
But it did

And though
I know
I'll survive

Love shouldn't lie to me
Love couldn't lie to me
Love wouldn't lie to me
But it did
But it did

"Lying To The Moon"

"Lying To The Moon"



I watch the sun going down
While I stand on sacred ground
Where once the night found us
In the twilight of our love

You said you'd meet me here
And I'm all alone
You sounded so sincere
Did you lead me on

I told the starry sky to wait for you
I told the wind to sigh like lovers do
I even told the night you were true
And you would be here soon
And now I'm lying to the moon

And so the night takes me in
Like a sympathetic friend
And sends the wind through the trees
So the willow weeps for me

The shadows fool my eyes
And I think I see you
Then they start to cry
Don't you know they believed you

I told the starry sky to wait for you
I told the wind to sigh like lovers do
I even told the night you were true
And you would be here soon
And now I'm lying to the moon

I told the starry sky to wait for you
I told the wind to sigh like lovers do
I even told the night you were true
And you would be here soon
And now I'm lying to the moon

"Maybe It's Love"

"Maybe It's Love"



Everybody's heart aches
Every time it opens
You don't know if you'll win or lose
You have to just let go

No I wasn't looking
It's funny how I found you
Just when I thought
I'd live my life alone

Maybe it's love
That I have longed for
Maybe it's love
I should be strong for
I'm tearing down the walls inside
I want to laugh, and cry and kiss
Maybe it's love
I miss

I've close my heart down
So many seasons
I didn't want to hurt again
I didn't want to try

So I turned myself to ice and stone
Said I don't need anyone
And nobody else
Would ever make me cry

Maybe it's love
I've run away from
Maybe it's love
Bringing me back home
I'm tearing down the walls inside
I want to laugh, and cry and kiss
Maybe it's love I miss

So put your arms around me now
Hold me tight
Show me how
No one has ever loved me more
I've waited for so long

Maybe it's love
Maybe I'm dreaming
Maybe it's love
I can believe in
I'm tearing down the walls inside
I want to laugh, and cry and kiss
Maybe it's love
Maybe it's love
Maybe it's love
Like this

"Met Him In A Motel Room"

"Met Him In A Motel Room"



She met Him in a motel room
In the shady part of town
With a set of satin sheets pulled back
And the window shades pulled down
Like a cotton dress she let her fears
Fall down to the ground
With a do not disturb sign on the door
She whispered, I've never done this before

Some people meet Him in a church
At a service on Sunday
As the preacher says the perfect words
They bow their heads to pray
And the choir sings a sweet forgiveness tune
She met Him in a motel room

With a bottle full of sleeping pills
And a long, long list of sins
She'd already planned on checking out
Before she checked in
She was gonna leave a goodbye note
Just needed paper and a pen
And with the vacancy light blinking red
She found that bible in the drawer
Beside the bed

Some people meet Him in a church
At a service on Sunday
As the preacher says the perfect words
They bow their heads to pray
And the choir sings a sweet forgiveness tune
She met Him in a motel room
She met Him in a motel room

Some people meet Him in a church
At a service on Sunday
As the preacher says the perfect words
They bow their heads to pray
No choir sang a sweet forgiveness tune
No that's no the way
That they were introduced
She met Him in a motel room
She met Him in a motel room

"Mr. Radio"

"Mr. Radio"



Oh, what a sunny day
When they carried the radio home
Bringing him in off the truck
And the dogs wouldn't leave us alone
Mr. Radio, you come down here to keep us company

We listen in a room
Through the miles and miles of night
Deep in the heart of the Bible belt
In the golden radio light
Mr. Radio, you come down here to keep us company

And it's hard days out in the field
The crows in the high tree top
If a man's away from his home all day
His chickens might fall to the fox
Mr. Radio, what can you do about that?
Uh huh

And you can take me down to a river town
Where the citizens dance till dawn
They dance so close it's a sin almost
The way they carry on
Mr. Radio, I never dreamed you could

And it's miles at the careless touch
Of a tired hand in time
When evening fell I heard a strange sell
Dreams that were never mine
Mr. Radio, you come down here to keep us company
You come down here to keep us company

"Nearest Distant Shore"

"Nearest Distant Shore"



You fight for every breath
Caught without a ship in this sea of neglect
The one you swore to love is pulling you down
You're in over your head
Chilled to the bone by the waters you've tread
Chart a course to land, before you drown

Swim to the nearest distant shore
There's only so much a heart can endure
You gave it your best, forgive yourself
You can't hold on anymore
It's not as far as it might seem
Now it's time to let go of old dreams
Every heart for itself
Swim to the nearest distant shore

He said for you he'd change
Then he'd let you down and watch you take the blame
You're trapped between his lies and the great unknown
You vowed you would not fail
But this ain't success it's a living hell
There's nothing left to lose, you're already alone

Swim to the nearest distant shore
There's only so much a heart can endure
You gave it your best, forgive yourself
You can't hold on anymore
It's not as far as it might seem
Now it's time to let go of old dreams
Every heart for itself
Swim to the nearest distant shore
