This Side Of Paradise
I'm ridin' in the back seat - nine years old
Starin' out the window countin' the highway poles
And then I get to thinkin' - that it don't seem real
I'm flyin' through the universe in a '69 oldsmobile
And I wanna know what they're not tellin'
And I don't wanna hear no lies
I just want something to believe in
Ah - it's a lonely lonely road I'm on
This side of paradise
I'm ridin' in the back seat - black limousine
Starin' out the window at a funeral scene
And then I get to thinkin' - and it don't seem right
I'm sittin' here safe and sound and someone I love is gone tonight
I wanna know what they're not tellin'
And I don't wanna hear no lies
I just want something to believe in
Ah - it's a lonely, lonely road we're on
This side of paradise
There ain't no crystal ball - there ain't no santa claus
There ain't no fairy tales
There ain't no streets of gold
There ain't no chosen few - ya it's just me and you
And that's all we got ya...that's all we got to hold on to
Ya this side of paradise
I remember bein' a little boy in the backseat - nine years old
Always askin' questions - never did what I was told
And then I get to thinkin' like I always do
We wander 'round in the darkness but every now and then
A little light shines through
I want to know what they're not telling
I don't wanna hear no lies
I just want something to believe in
Ah - it's a lonely lonely road we're on
This side of paradise

Lonely
Are you lonely for me
Sunday night
Two weeks past
The last time
I saw your face
Our separate way
We decided to go
Now I find myself
Sittin' down
Thinkin' bout
Everything
To this place
We've come to how ?
We used to be down
Memories of you
Could you be thinkin' 'bout me
Right now
(Chorus)
Are you lonely for me
Are you lonely for me
You should'nt try to hide
The way you feel inside
Are you lonely for me
Are you lonely for me
Just let me make it right
Come stay with me tonight
Are you lonely for me
Are you lonely for me
I won't believe we're through
Tell me what you wanna do
Are you lonely for me
Are you lonely for me
Hey...
There's a good in good-bye
That's a lie
I wish we could go back
When we first met
How to forgive and forget
I wish that i could have you
Right here

Sweet Hitch-hiker
Was ridin along side the highway, rollin up the country side.
Thinkin Im the devils heatwave, what you burn in your crazy mind?
Saw a slight distraction standin by the road;
She was smilin there, yellow in her hair;
Do you wanna, I was thinkin, would you care.
Chorus:
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
We could make music at the greasy king.
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
Wont you ride on my fast machine?
Cruisin on thru the junction, Im flyin bout the speed of sound,
Noticin peculiar function, I aint no roller coaster show me down.
I turned away to see her, woa! she caught my eye,
But I was rollin down, movin too fast;
Do you wanna, she was thinkin can it last.
Chorus
Was busted up along the highway, Im the saddest ridin fool alive.
Wondring if youre goin in my way, wont you give a poor boy a ride?
Here she comes a ridin, lord, shes flyin high.
But she was rollin down, movin too fast;
Do you wanna, she was thinkin can I last.

Never Be Lonely
Got you by my side
Ill never be lonely
Got you by my side
Ill never be afraid
Never be lonely anymore
Turn away the fools from my door
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Spent a lot of time
Waitin to find you
Spent a lot of time
All on my own
Couldve gone a thousand different ways
Watching my nights turn to days
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Here in the middle of now or never
Finally found where I belong
I could go on like this forever
Looking at you, looking at you
Wasnt I the one
Love never came to
Wasnt I the one
So misunderstood
All because my heart wasnt sure
Never felt a love like this before
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Here in the middle of now or never
Finally found where I belong
I could go on like this forever
Looking at you, looking at you
Got me by your side
Never be lonely
Got me by your side
Never be afraid
And I will not let you down
Keeping both feet on the ground
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely

Sometimes
Baby baby
I won't you to misunderstand
If I stare at my own reflection
Sometimes I wonder
If time has really been my friend
My friend
Baby, baby
I like to tell you what's on my mind
How I'm afraid of us growing older
And never reaching those stars we once saw in our eyes
Time flies
I guess we're just too busy living
To feel alive
Sometimes
I get a little bit lonely
Sometimes
Sometimes I wanna hear what a stranger might say
Sometimes I wanna hear it all from you
Baby, baby
I guess we're just two of a kind
And neither one thinks of the others listening
And how are you who doesn't know (?) familiar, the one I like
And I'm fine
Maybe I don't wanna lose everything that we have
'Cause I believe it's the right connection
And waking up with you everyday, baby it ain't half bad
You're the best I've had
And if sometimes I sound unsure
Please understand
Sometimes
I get a little bit lonely
Sometimes
Sometimes I wanna hear what a stranger might say
Sometimes I wanna hear it all from you
Sometimes I get lonely
And I feel alone
Sometimes I get lonely
Sometimes I get a little bit lonely
Sometimes
Sometimes I wanna hear what a stranger might say
Sometimes I wanna hear it all from you
Sometimes I get a little bit lonely
Sometimes
Sometimes I wanna hear what a stranger might say
Sometimes I wanna hear it all from you

I Wanna Roo You
Twenty-third of december
Covered in snow
You in the kitchen
With the lights way down low
I'm in the parlor playing my old guitar
Speaking to you, darling, to find out how you are
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
Come to me softly
Come to me quiet
Know what i'm after
I'm gonna try it
Snowstorm's on the way and we'll be stranded for a week
Come over to the window, look outside take a peek
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
You know i am lonely
And in need of your company
Oh, let your love light shine on down on me
And we can just sit here
Look at the fire
Watch the flames leaping higher and higher
Tea on the stove food in the pan
Ain't going nowhere and we don't have many plans
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
And you know i am lonely
I been in need of your company
Let your love shine on down on me
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
Woo you tonight, pretty baby
Woo you tonight, little darling
Woo you tonight, alright
Woo you tonight

Woman Walk The Line
(Emmylouy Harris Paul Kennerley)
Don't bother sittin' at my table
Just because I'm on my own
Yes I'm a woman and I'm lonely
But that don't mean I can't be strong
Once again he's not beside me
And tonight hw won't be coming home
So I just need a place to miss my baby
When he goes out to do me wrong
Tonight I wanna do some drinkin'
I came to listen to the band
Yes I'm as good as what you're thinkin'
But I don't wanna hold your hand
And I know I'm lookin' lonely
But ther's nothin' here I wanna find
It's just the way of a woman
When she goes out to walk the line
Every night's a little longer
Than the one that came before
But when I hear them sing a sad song
I know just what I'm cryin' for
I don't wanna stay home waitin'
Don't have to wonder where he's been
He'll be someone else's baby
Before he's in my arms again

Lonely
They're tellin' me,
the does and don'ts
but nobody's askin' me
What I desire
(I wanna be lonely)
No record company callin in today
No stress,no drama, end of delay,
Chorus:
I wanna be lonely,
Baby i wanna be lonely,
I just wana be by myself,
I wana be lonely
Baby i wana be lonely
Final by myself
No mobile rings,
no traffic jams
no date,no stress
and no one that wants my money
just for nothing

So Lonely
Well someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you just dont care
You look as if youre going somewhere
But I just cant convince myself
I couldnt live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely
Know no ones knocked upon my door
For a thousand years or more
All made up and no where to go
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat theyre always free
No surprise no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul
I always play the starring role
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
I feel so lonely...

Lonely Old Road
I went down a lonely old road,
They said was keeping me home,
One day I will know about,
Down that lonely old road I was to be told,
How come no one told me to go down this lonely old road?
I felt that I didn't know anything beyond this lonely old road,
Come to think of it,
I don't because this lonely old road,
Is all I know,
No one told me about this darn lonely old road,
I tried to keep my head held high,
Gravity pressed my head down,
I was walking around,
Saying I'm walking down this lonely old road,
If you should ever see me,
All you have to do is wave that hand of yours,
Telling me to go down this lonely old road,
I might smirk at first,
Because you told me to go down this lonely old road,
But you also heard me out,
Before I went on this journey,
On this lonely old road,
Just know that one day,
I'll get off this lonely old road,
I'll have something to show,
About this lonely old road.

Heaven Tonight
Lost in a dream in the arms of the night
Two lonely prisoners of our own device
Don't let me go, Hold on Together
you wanna know if love can be real
I wanna take everything I can steal
love on the line, it's now or never
Why can't the night last forever
*Chorus*
This could be Paradise
Holding you here by my side
if we just close our eyes
we'll be in Heaven Tonight
Run through the night down streets of desire
Burning my soul, my heart's on fire
Give up the fight, it's sweet surrender
with trembling hands we reach for it all
two desperate Hearts waiting to fall
I need you now, now more than ever
Why can't the night last forever
*Chorus*
This could be Paradise
Holding you here by my side
if we just close our eyes
we'll be in Heaven Tonight
This feels like Paradise
I see the world in our eyes
if we just hold on tight
we'll be in Heaven Tonight

Don't Leave Me Lonely
I won't stand bein' broken hearted
I won't be pushed around
The rules were set when we got started
But lately I have found
We've spent too little time and too much heartache
I feel we're losin' ground
And lately I've been hearin'
You won't be needin' me around
Don't leave me lonely
Just wanna be right by your side
Your one and only - tonite
So don't leave me lonely
I need you here all the time
So don't leave me lonely - oh no
You say you need your independence
Well I need mine
Separate lives and separate feelings
I guess that's fine
But that won't last - it's no solution
I know it can't survive
And lately I've been thinkin'
Thinkin' 'bout you all the time

Lonely Paradise
I thought the sobbing so sweet the day that I had to say goodbye
Now I am in paradise alone it’s those tears that really make me cry
Perfume in the air from flowers I cannot name
Birds on my balcony that I don’t need to tame
It’s a lonely paradise
A lonely lovely paradise
That isn’t the same without you
That makes the blue sky days seems blue
Lovers on the beach saying hello to me as they walk on by
I check my phone for messages seeing if you are there just to say hi.
I thought that I wanted to get away – far away
To numb the pain – but the tropical winds just fans the flames
It’s a lonely paradise
A lonely lovely paradise
That isn’t the same without you
That makes the turquoise sea seen so - oh so blue
It’s a lonely paradise
A lonely, lonely paradise

Dont Let Me Be Lonely Tonight
Treat me wrong
Treat me right
Do me now baby
Tell me lies, but oh hold me tight
Save your goodbyes for the morning light
Lord I dont wanna be lonely tonight
Come and say hello
Come and say goodbye
Sure good enough to see you
Apart when its time to go
Dont say ends, but but but please
Dont say lord I dont wanna be lonely tonight
Gonna whale down your ha heart
Im gonna do as you please
Gonna do as you please, girl
You aint gonna see me getting down on my knees
Cos my heart has been divided, ooh
And my souls been excited
Youve been turning my world upside down
More baby
Come and say hello
Come and say goodbye
Sure good enough to see you
Apart when its time to go
Dont say ends, but but but please
Dont say lord I dont wanna be lonely tonight
Oh babe

On The Lonely Side Of Town
On the lonely side of town
When no one else is around
Her brown eyes cry those tears
Over her loves from the past years
Her heart is breaking without a sound
On the lonely side of town
She feels just like a clown
With tears pouring from her eyes
With no rhymn or reason why
But life has turned her upside down
On the lonely side of town
Her head is hanging down
Shaking from side to side
With not much left of her pride
There on that lonely side of town
On the lonely side of town
She is lost behind her frown
But in ways she may never know
Her love fine it's way to show
And by her love she is bound
On the lonely side of town
You can hear the old train sound
Reminding her of those days
When life glowed with brighter rays
Even on that lonely side of town
On the lonely side of town
She is loved by leaps and bounds
Even though she may not see
Love'S the only thing that's free
And it creaps up on her without a sound

Wanna Be There
I wanna be there
When you turn out the lights
I wanna be there
But Im here on this lonely highway
In the middle of nowhere
I wanna hold you
If you wake up in the night
I wanna hold you
I wanna be there in the morning
I wanna touch you
cause you know tonight
Theres nowhere else that I would rather be
Im not the same when youre not here with me
Close your eyes and say a little prayed
And baby Im gonna be there
I wanna be there
I wanna be there
Wanna be there in the morning
Oh, I wanna be there

Yer Blues
Yes i'm lonely wanna die
Yes i'm lonely wanna die
If i ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If i ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
My mother was of the sky
My father was of the earth
But i am of the universe
And you know what it's worth
I'm lonely wanna die
If i ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
The eagle picks my eye
The worm he licks my bone
I feel so suicidal
Just like dylan's mr. jones
Lonely wanna die
If i ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
Black cloud crossed my mind
Blue mist round my soul
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock and roll
Wanna die yeah wanna die
If i ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.

Give It Up
You come home late at night
You tell me its all right
But something must be wrong
I wanna hold you close
But your reaction shows
You keep me hanging on
Im tired of all your lies
Your silly alibies
Dont wanna play that game
If you dont know the rules
Ill send you back to school
You put a man to shame
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know Im not the only one, only one
Maybe youre the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life
What happened to our plans
Weve got a one night stand
Youd better let it be
If theres another man
Ill do the best I can
To bring you back to me
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know Im not the only one, only one
Maybe youre the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know Im not the only one, only one
Maybe youre the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop

The lover of my life
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
