13. When The Credits Roll
- 1. I Got A Car
- She was leaning on a rail in a cotton dress
- Summer tanned pretty, little perfect mess
- With a story that could only be anybody's guess
- And I was thinking that I probably didn't stand a chance
- But I rolled up my sleeves, walked up and I said
- Hey, I don't know you but I'd kinda like a shot
- She said, I saw you comin over, I already thought it over
- And ok, so now what
- And I said, well I got a car, she said, there's something
- At least it's a start, I said, it's better than nothing
- I ain't in no hurry but I'm ready when you are
- And she said, where do you think all this is going
- I said, there ain't no way of knowing
- I guess I hadn't thought it through that far
- But I got a car
- So, we let the wheels turn and the windows down
- We let ourselves go all the way through town
- She never said stop and I never asked her why
- We drove into the night, when outta nowhere
- She said, I'd give anything to never go back there
- And I kinda wish this day would never end
- She said, I could use a change but I don't even know where
- And I said, well I got a car, she said, there's something
- At least it's a start, I said, it's better than nothing
- I ain't in no hurry but I'm ready when you are
- And she said, where do you think all this is going
- I said, there ain't no way of knowing
- I really hadn't thought it through that far
- And I can't promise you the moon and stars
- But I got a car
- We got lost in the miles, lost track of the days
- 'Til we finally found a stopping place
- When the doctor's said, you know what's on the way?
- And we found ourselves in a little white house
- One Sunday morning, rain pouring down
- She said, I think it's time but all the lines are out
- And her eyes teared up and she said, what are we gonna do now?
- And I said, well I got a car, she said, there's something
- You think it'll start, I said, it's already running
- Got your things in the back and I'm ready when you are
- She said, are you sure it'll get us where we're goin'?
- I said, if there's one thing I know girl, it's gotten us this far
- And I don't mean to hurry but I'm ready when you are
- 2. Give It All We Got Tonight
- July moonlight shines
- Your pretty little head on my shoulder
- Pull over on the side of the road
- Oh my God, you're something
- Like nothing I've ever seen
- If I'm asleep girl, let me dream
- Baby fall into my kiss
- It should just happen like this
- Trust it so much that there's no one else but us and
- This moment that says it's so right
- 'Cause that's all we have in this life
- Drink up this love, baby, give it all we got tonight
- Summer honeysuckle
- Leaking through a rolled down window
- We both know when that seat lays back
- Anything can happen
- So imagine it'll never end
- Just close your eyes and you can see that we are where we're meant to be
- Baby fall into my kiss
- It should just happen like this
- Trust it so much that there's no one else but us and
- This moment that says it's so right
- 'Cause that's all we have in this life
- Baby, drink up this love, give it all we got tonight
- Give it all we got tonight
- Baby fall into my kiss
- It should just happen like this
- Trust it so much that there's no one else but us and
- This moment that says it's so right
- That's all we have in this life
- Drink up this love, c'mon, give it all we got tonight
- Give it all we got tonight
- 3. Blue Melodies
- I don't know how to write you a song
- That says, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong
- I can't find the words that don't make it cheap
- It's right on the verge and just out of reach
- It must be a sad song with a blue melody
- and I'll bet you it's lonesome, as lonesome as can be
- But I'm starting to wonder if there's such a thing
- As a sad song that's too sad to sing
- Maybe tonight, maybe this time tomorrow
- me and this guitar will get right with this sorrow
- And I'll play it for you, and you'll come back to me
- 'Cause you were always a fool for the blue melodies
- So it must be a sad song in three quarter time
- That chills down to the bone when the steel guitars cry
- But if it's not the one that brings you home to me
- Then it's just a sad song that's too sad to sing
- Awe but if it's not the one that brings you back to me
- Then it's just a sad song that's too sad to sing
- Oh, it's just a sad song that's too sad to sing
- 4. I Just Can't Go On Dying Like This
- I'm driving in my car alone
- You called me on the telephone
- How many times will it take till I'm convinced
- That you're using me, I'm just a used-to-be
- It's a lie, I know it's a lie
- But I just can't go on dying like this
- Can I see you tonight,
- Baby I'll act just like you want me to
- Or is that just exactly what I'm not supposed to do?
- I'll just stop in here, have a glass of beer
- I'm just a fool I guess
- But I just can't go on dying like this
- Here I am again, it's 4 a.m.
- I think I'll play that song again
- The one called "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"
- And I'll wonder where you are tonight
- I don't know, I just don't know
- But I just can't go on dying like this
- Can I see you tonight,
- Baby I'll act just like you want me to
- Or is that just exactly what I'm not supposed to do?
- I'll just stop in here, have a glass of beer
- I'm just a fool I guess
- But I just can't go on dying like this
- Lord knows I just can't go on dying like this
- 5 . Sittin' On The Fence
- She's gotta body like a hundred dollar bill
- soft as satin, smooth as silk
- And to top all that, she's got a heart to match
- I could do a lot worse I know
- I'd be a damn fool to let her go
- Shouldn't be a doubt
- Still here I am
- [Chorus:]
- Sittin' on a stool, sitting' on the fence
- Tryin' to play it cool, tryin' to talk some sense
- Into this crazy heart, lookin' for a sign
- Do I let her go or do I make her mine
- While there's still a chance
- Sittin' on a stool, sitting' on the fence
- Guess I should probably settle up and head for the door
- MAybe I'll just stay and have one more
- to calm my nerves
- one more can't hurt
- Truth is I don't know what she sees in me
- She says, I'm all she'll ever want or need
- On Gond's green earth, but one more can't hurt
- [Repeat Chorus]
- Do I run to her and tell her she's the one
- Or do I do just like I've always done
- Sittin' on a stool, sitting' on the fence
- Tryin' to play it cool, tryin' to talk some sense
- Into this crazy, mixed-up heart of mine
- Do I let her go or do I make her mine
- While there's still a chance
- Sittin' on a stool, sittin' on the fence
- Sittin' on a stool, sittin' on the fence
- 5. The Night Is Young
- There's a little place I know
- Right down the road
- They call a hideaway
- They party night and day
- Girl, I think that it's high time
- That you and I cut loose, unwind
- It's time to play
- Oh, it's Friday
- The night is young and the sun's been down a long time
- It's half-past a half-full glass
- And since you asked
- We're gonna dance the night
- Right into broad daylight
- You know it'd be worth our while
- So, give me that come get me smile
- You know the one, mmm
- And I'll come undone
- The night is young but the sun's been down a long time
- It's been awhile since that old sun departed
- Let's take our time and finish what we started
- The night is young, the sun's been down a long time
- Let's Throw ourselves a night to remember
- 'Til there's nothing left of this place but burning embers
- The night is young but the sun's been down a long time
- I love to see you, let your hair down
- Throw your arms 'round
- Me, look in my eyes
- And let your laughter fly
- All week long, I've waited on
- My chance to hold you all night long
- And it's here girl
- Baby, rock my world
- The night is young but the sun's been down a long time
- Let's Throw ourselves a night to remember
- 'Til there's nothing left of this place but burning embers
- The night is young but the sun's been down a long time
- Oh, the night is young but the sun has been down a long time
- 6. When Love Comes Around Again
- There's things you don't know 'til you know
- Like when somebody's gone before they go
- When it comes to love, you never really learn
- Just when you think you've got it figured out
- And you think you know what love's all about
- That's just about the time you're gonna get burned
- Oh, you tell yourself you've had enough
- But that'll all change my friend
- When love comes around again
- [Chorus:]
- You say, you're swearing' off
- 'Cause the only thing that love has ever done for you
- is to make you hurt and cry, feel like you want to die
- Break your heart in two
- But then you'll see a smile
- That'll knock you off your feet and you can't wait to meet
- the girl behind that face
- That's all it's gonna take and you'll fall right back in
- when love comes around again
- Life ain't just coincidence
- Things happen for a reason that don't make sense
- Till you look back, it's 20/20 then
- You know I never would have met my girl
- If somebody else hadn't wrecked my world
- And opened that door for her to walk right in
- Oh, I've stood right where you stand
- But that'll all change my friend
- When love comes around again
- [Repeat Chorus]
- Yeah, that's all it's gonna take
- And you'll fall right back in
- When love comes around again
- 7. I Thought I Heard My Heart Sing
- [Chorus:]
- Well, I Do what my heart says do
- And Right now it's pointing at you
- Hey girl, you're tugging' on my heart strings
- Well, I've seen everything
- I thought I heard my heart sing
- I went home flying high
- I met the girl of my dreams tonight
- A wild fire, screaming' inside
- I know it's real 'cause my heart don't lie
- [Repeat Chorus]
- Well, here I am knocking on your door
- This old hound wants to talk a little more
- The T.V.A. and the hoover dam
- Don't turn me on like holding your hand
- [Repeat Chorus x2]
- Well, I've seen everything
- I thought I heard my heart sing
- Well, I've seen everything
- I thought I heard my heart sing
- Heart sing
- 8 . That's What Breaking Hearts Do"
- You try and try to erase
- That lonely look on your face
- You try and try to pretend
- Soon it's all gonna end
- You cry a few more tears
- Into a few more beers
- The days turn to weeks
- And the weeks feel like years
- [Chorus:]
- That's what breaking hearts do
- That's what breaking hearts do
- They cause you so much pain
- Make you go insane
- That's what breaking hearts do
- Every time you try to walk
- in circles you walk
- Every time you try to talk
- In circles you talk
- You can't think straight
- Your mind starts to spin
- You can try to fight it
- But you know you can't win
- Feel like your hands are tied
- Bound up, strapped down, busted inside
- Don't have the will to find your way
- And you don't think you can take it even one more day
- Feel like your hands are tied
- Bound up, strapped down, busted inside
- Don't have the will to find your way
- And you don't think you can take it even one more day
- they keep you looking out your window
- they keep you checking your phone
- You hear a sound at your door
- You walk across that floor
- But you're still there all alone
- [Repeat Chorus]
- They cause you so much pain
- They make you go insane
- That's what breaking hearts do.
- 9. I Believe
- The night's as clear as a big desert sky
- But it's hard to see the stars with these tears in my eyes
- Yeah, it's hard not to cry
- There's twenty-six reasons why
- There's broken hearts that'll never be the same
- Shattered lives still reeling from the pain
- Of plans and dreams now gone
- Oh, how do you move on?
- But I believe
- There's someone who's looking after me
- Someone beside me night and day
- To light the way
- It's hard to conceive
- Something you can't see
- But I believe
- I believe
- There's twenty-six angels looking down from above
- resting in his mercy, grace and love
- Time may never heel
- The sadness that we feel
- [Repeat Chorus]
- The rivers flow now that used to be dry
- As people all over the world start to cry
- But I believe
- 10. Love Is Everything
- It's a whole lot more than going to the store for a wedding ring
- It's kissing' and a hugging' but it's also the kicking and the cussing thing
- I've been told
- Love is everything
- it's a smile on your face on a cold winter day at the thought of spring
- It's getting up at night for the cry of a little bitty baby thing
- And it's growing old
- Love is everything
- It's those fires that daddy stoked those nights to keep you warm
- It's the hell your mama went through the day you were born
- And it's a thunderstorm
- Love is everything
- Oh, it's going off to war, it's the back and forth on a front porch swing
- It's the kiss that you got in the old parking lot of the dairy queen
- and it's you and me
- Love is everything
- It's looking out for everybody else but number one
- And it's all that really matters when all's said and done
- And the race is run
- Love is everything
- It's a rose on a stone, it's the words in a song that the chorir sings
- it's the tears of goodbye and the place that you fly to, to get your wings
- Yeah love's the king
- Love is everything
- love is everything
- 11. You Don't Know What You're Missing
- Sittin' at the bar I overheard a couple guys, one was complaining
- About his life and his wife and everyday things
- Said, his kids were getting' big and getting' hard to handle
- The other guy was sipping whiskey, wasn't saying a thing
- The first guy kept talking for what seemed like forever
- Said, I never have money or time like I used to
- He went on and on, till the second guy finally sat down his whiskey
- Looked him straight in the eye and said, lucky you.
- [Chorus:]
- You don't know what it feels like living this lonely
- You don't know what it sounds like when nobody's home
- You've been talking and man, I've been doing some listening
- You don't know what you're missing, till it's gone
- The second guy said, I used to have all your problems
- But hindsight's 20/20 and a fool is blind
- So, please excuse me if I have to end our conversation
- And forgive me if I can't sympathize
- [Repeat Chorus]
- You don't know what you're missing till it's gone
