Long Gone Down The Road
03:39
|
|||
I’ll let the dust slowly settle on
The two of us, I’ll put the pedal down
To the floor
Give it a little more
The way we were, in our better days
Is just a blur, here on this highway
I want to look back, but I won’t
‘Till I’m long gone down the road
A little more time, well a lot more distance
Is gonna make up all the difference
Between where I’ve been and where I’m gonna go
Mile by mile I’m getting
Long gone down the road
I keep my eyes in one direction
Keep my mind off the reflection
In the rearview
Well baby off of you
I tell myself, no don’t hit the brakes
If I can help it, I won’t make that mistake
It’ll get easier I know
When I’m long gone down the road
A little more time and a lot more distance
It’s gonna make baby, up all the difference
Between where I’ve been and where I’m gonna go
Mile by mile I’m getting
Long gone down the road
A little more time and a lot more distance
It’s gonna make baby, up all the difference
Between where I’ve been and where I’m gonna go
Mile by mile I’m getting
Long gone down the road
Down the road
Down the road
Yeah

How Blue
03:21
|
|||
You keep tellin' me I got the right stuff
Guess you don't think my heart's been knocked around enough
You keep actin' like you haven't won yet,
Tell me, just how blue do I have to get
How blue do I have to get
How blue, do you want me to be
Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
How long, do you think it'll take
Before I'm drowning in another heartache
Is there another color I haven't been through
One step closer to you
Tell me how blue
You tell me life is for the lucky and love is just the same
Got to take a little gamble if you want to win the game
When I'm walkin' on the wire, you're gonna pull the net
How blue do I have to get
How blue do I have to get
How blue, do you want me to be
Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
How long, before you're sure
That I'm just the fool you've been takin' me for
You tell me you hate to see me cry
But sometimes I think that you lie
Well I used to think I could turn it around
Keep my head above water, and my feet on the ground
Suddenly I'm slipping out of view
How blue, do you want me to be
Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
How long, do you think it'll take
Before I'm drowning in another heartache
Is there another color I haven't been through
One step closer to you
Tell me how blue (how blue)
Tell me how blue (how blue)

A Little Undone
02:56
|
|||
Baby, I think you know what I mean
We’re frayed at the seams and we’re feeling the strain
and lately, how come it’s not enough
We used to be wrapped up in love
I could hardly wait back then
To be tangled in your arms again
But now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Tell me, do you feel that ache
A little bit of love, a little bit of hate
And baby, we know what words can do
We push too hard, and they cut right through
Starts with just a tear and then
Nothing’s left but a few loose ends
And now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Well I know you can’t tie everyone down
But what do we do if it all comes unwound?
Cause now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Oh baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Oh baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Yeha oh baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
And oh baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone
Baby now, we’re just a little undone
Just a little undone

I Blame Love
04:02
|
|||
Why do people shake their heads when heartache happens
Wondering what went wrong, what’s that about
Everybody says it’s complicated
They can say I’m crazy
But I believe I’ve got it figured out
I blame love, I blame tenderness
What’s happened to me, I can’t explain unless
I blame love, it got me into this
For promising me heaven, just to kill me with a kiss
I blame love
I see others lose and look, for explanations
Like it’s all some great big mystery
Finding fault and blaming one another
Lots of theories out there, but here’s the only one that works for me
I blame love, I blame tenderness
What’s happened to me, I can’t explain unless
I blame love, it got me into this
For promising me heaven, just to kill me with a kiss
I blame love
Maybe I’m just crazy, but I believe I got it figured out
I blame love, I blame tenderness
If I had no heart I wouldn’t be in this mess
I blame love, my nemesis
It promised me heaven
Then gave me this
I blame love and I claim innocence
What’s happened to me
I can’t explain unless
I blame love
And tenderness
The devil’s in the details, but most of all I guess
I blame love
For all of this
If I had no heart I wouldn’t be in this mess
I blame love, my nemesis
What’s happened to me
(I blame love)
Oh, kill me with a kiss
Oh, tenderness
I blame love, for all of this

Potter's Field
04:38
|
|||
When I was young and heaven-sent
It never mattered where I went
I never knew back then a wound that wouldn’t heal
I never walked in Potter’s Field
But now the years have come and gone
And still I find myself alone
Seems all the dreams I had were somehow trampled on
And all the stars I wished upon
Do you know the way to Potter’s Field
I only stood on the edge, as a child
It’s just another place, you can vanish with no trace
Stretching out for miles and miles
My father’s hands are empty now
They can’t recall he held a plow
But I remember how he laughed to see his greatest yield
With his back to Potter’s Field
And all the times when I was lost
It always seemed too far to cross
I can see clearly now, the edge and far beyond
Not endless, as it was when I was young
Do you know the way to Potter’s Field
I only stood on the edge, as a child
It’s just another place
You can vanish with no trace
Stretching out for miles and miles and miles
Do you know the way to Potter’s Field (stretching out for miles and miles)
Do you know the way to Potter’s Field (stretching out for miles and miles)
Do you know the way to Potter’s Field (stretching out for miles and miles)
Do you know the way to Potter’s Field

Dancing On The Moon
04:23
|
|||
You were so certain from the start
You built your dreams around my heart
I had some; I couldn’t wait
And I was young, so I ran away
To go dancing
Dancing
To go dancing on the moon
Now I’ve seen stars that shine so bright
And some were just reflected light
Still somehow, they don’t compare to you
And I’m sorry now I never asked you to
Go dancing
Dancing
To go dancing on the moon ah, ah, ah
Life is all hard choices
and it’s living with the ones you made
I just heard other voices
But I still wonder
What if I had stayed
Here’s a secret left untold
I never wanted to grow old
But time will come for you and me
Even though it’s only in my dreams
We’ll go dancing
Dancing
We’ll go dancing on the moon
Ah ah
Oh oh woah oh
Mmh mmh mhh
Mmh mmh mhh
Mmh mmh mhh
Mmh mmh mhh

In The Real West
03:31
|
|||
It's the way of life in the real West
'Neath the Prairie moon that's Heaven blessed
And a tall boot shuffle on a wooden floor
It's a clean white shirt on a Saturday night
And a long cool beer that's pure delight
And if you heard me say it, there's a whole lot more
It's the way of life in the real West
I'm a city girl, but I must confess
I'd be a cowboy angel and I know what for
It's the way of life in the real West
Where your time is yours when the sun sets
And the stars rise up to light the western sky
Laredo up north to Cimarron
If I'm lost, you know I've gone
To where the spurs that jingle, are the working kind
It's the way of life in the real West
And if I were a man, I guess
I'd ride and rope and wrangle 'til the day I die
It's the way of life in the real West
I'm a city girl but I must confess
I'd be a cowboy angel and I know what for
It's the way of life in the real West
Where your time is yours when the sun sets
And the stars rise up to light the western sky
It's the way of life in the real West
I'm a city girl but I must confess
I'd be a cowboy angel and I know what for
It's the way of life in the real West
Where your time is yours when the sun sets
And the stars rise up to light the western sky
And the stars rise up to light the western sky

You haven’t seen that part of me yet
No, you haven’t seen that part of me yet
You don’t know me
But I know if you did
You’d laugh at my jokes
Be impressed with my wit
You’d remember
The day we met
And I’d be someone you’d never forget
But you haven’t seen that part of me yet
No, you haven’t seen that part of me yet
If my love
Seems safe and routine
Not that walk on the wild side
Like you’d think you need
You’d be surprised
How far out there I’d get
I’ve got tricks up my sleeve and I’m willing to bet
You haven’t seen that part of me yet
No, you haven’t seen that part of me yet
Sometimes I wonder if you see me at all
I’ve been right here, loving you all along
Waiting and hoping you’ll see who I am
The fire beside you, a forever friend
You haven’t seen that part of me yet
No, you haven’t seen that part of me yet
If my heart
Seems further away
And my touch feels different than it did yesterday
If you believe
I’m just a little upset
And you think I won’t leave and leave you to regret
You haven’t seen that part of me yet
When you lay down at night, alone in your bed
There’ll be pictures of me playing on in your head
The sound of my laugh, or something I said
Will cut like the truth with a knife of regret
You haven’t seen that part of me yet
No, you haven’t seen that part of me yet
You haven’t seen that part of me yet
No, you haven’t seen that part of me yet

Time
03:43
|
|||
Who knows why the wind blows
Who knows where it ends
Who can say how long it takes to come around again
I guess you had to ride it
As far as you could go
It might bring you back this way
Time only knows
But time doesn’t hear
And time doesn’t care
Time doesn’t wait
No, time isn’t fair
Time is a healer
Time is a thief
Everything it steals it keeps
It just moves on down the line
‘Till there’s nothing left behind
But time
Who knows all the reasons why
Two people drift apart
I used to always feel you here
Right up against my heart
The wind can change direction
Baby, you could change your mind
I could learn to heal this heart in time
But time doesn’t hear
And time doesn’t care
Time doesn’t wait
No, time isn’t fair
Time is a healer
Time is a thief
Everything it steals it keeps
It just moves on down the line
Time doesn’t hear
No, time doesn’t care
Time doesn’t wait
No, time isn’t fair
Time moves too slowly
Time slips away
There’s not a thing time won’t betray
It just moves on down the line
‘Till there’s nothing left behind
But time
Ooh time, we had so much time
Ooh time, we had so much time
Ooh time

This Is Me Leaving
03:58
|
|||
Give me half a chance at a little romance
I could be a fool for love
But you got an iron hand
Hidden in your velvet glove
Wish I had a dime, for every time
You turned my heart around
But oh no, don’t you know
You can’t put a good girl down
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I got my pride
This is me leavin’, you can take the tears I cried
There are some horses, baby that you just can’t ride
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I’m still alive
Well you came along and put the saddle on
Baby you were sittin’ tall
My, my you were up so high
Maybe it’s your turn to fall
Used to be you hung the moon for me
You hung it all over town
But oh no, don’t you know
You can’t put a good girl down
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I got my pride
This is me leavin’, you can take the tears I cried
There are some horses, baby that you just can’t ride
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I’m still alive
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I got my pride
This is me leavin’, you can take the tears I cried
There are some horses, baby that you just can’t ride
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I’m still alive
This is me leavin’
(Don’t try to turn my heart around, no)
This is me leavin’
(Yeah I’m leavin’ you behind)
This is me leavin’, leavin’ while I’m still alive
This is me leavin’

Do The Math
05:00
|
|||
One by one the lights all fail
Current comes to no avail
And one by one the rooms fade to black
The clock chimes dinner time there’s no going back
Two by two, we unite and unglue
One wants old, one needs new
Two by two, ties lose their hold
The clocks chimes dinner time and hearts growing cold
Never learned to do the math right
Sometimes it adds up and later it divides
And never learned the sum of two hearts
The clock chimes dinner time and we dine apart
One and one, sometimes equals one
Two and two, sometimes equal one
One and one, are one when love is fun
Two and two, stay ones when love is done
I will sing, but math I will not do
Till one and one are one, but can still be two
And till one and one are one, but can still be two
And till the clock chimes dinner time and till I dine with you
And till I dine with you
And till I dine with you

Seven Summers
05:49
|
|||
In a house we’d never seen
A town somewhere between
We packed up all your things
All your boxes and your books
We packed them up for good
We gave the rest to charity
We held the service there in your town
And strangers came around
Offering condolences
We scattered ashes in an early frost
And watched them all get lost
In the fields and fences
Seven summers
Six months and twenty days
I still can’t find a place that’s far enough away
Flesh of your flesh
Your restless spirit haunts my bones
Your blood runs through my veins
That’s nothing I can change
In seven summers
Mama said we’d understand
You weren’t the kind of man
To have a family
What frightened you the most
The demons or ghosts
Yeah, none of us could see
I’d like to think now you’re happy
Oh yeah, you’re flying free
Under bluer skies
Just when I think I’ve left you far behind
You’re still here sometimes
Looking through my eyes
Seven summers
Six months and twenty days
I still can’t find a place that’s far enough away
Flesh of your flesh
Your restless spirit haunts my bones
Your blood runs through my veins
That’s nothing I can change
In seven summers
Hold on, I can’t change
What’s in these veins, in seven summers
Yeah hold on, ‘cause I feel strange
What’s in these veins, in seven summers
Hold on, ‘cause I feel strange
Yeah hold on, ‘cause I can’t change
What’s in these veins, in seven summers
Yeah hold on, ‘cause I feel strange
What’s in these veins, in seven summers
