All Because Of You
Every night I get tired eyes
My feet dont reach the ground
Then Im with you
I get by cause I know that youre near me
So baby close your eyes
I can sleep tonight
All because of you
Every night when the fire flies
The walls come tumblin down at the bajou
I get by cause I know that youre near me
So baby close your eyes
I can sleep tonight
All because of you
Ill keep singin my love song
In my mind Ill sing a song for you
You can see through the music
Thats in my mind
So baby close your eyes
I can sleep tonight
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you

Hello
Its after nine oclock you should be in bed already
I miss you
I love you baby
I hear you calling for me
Sometimes you cry in your sleep
Cause you dont understand why
I cant be with you tonight
But baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
Youll hold the pillow tonight
But soon Ill be by your side
I know you wonder if i
Know how youre feeling inside
So many things on your mind
Too much to think for a child
But baby close your eyes
(close your eyes)
And try to sleep for awhile
(oh)
I know you want me right now
But Ill be home tomorrow
[jonia & jeff jr.]
I know you said not to worry
Cause youll be home in a hurry
But I just wanted to tell you
How much I really do miss you

Dont Close Your Eyes, Tonight
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the dreamland express album, and has also been released on the the country roads collection album.
Theres a tenderness that I feel, its very real you see
I can feel your body stir so deep within
Let it be an out of love tonight completely
And let me ask of you one thing
Dont close your eyes tonight
Just look at me and see how many times I cried for you
Dont close your eyes tonight
Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight
Well you can lie so close to someone and still feel alone
And though I heard you say you loved me so many times
While you give me love so beautiful and tender
Someone else is in your mind
Dont close your eyes tonight
Just look at me and see how many times I cried for you
Dont close your eyes tonight
Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight
Sorry if I cry - feelings run so deep
Many is a time when Ill wake up and find
That Im crying in my sleep
Look me in the eye, tell me what you see
Im the one who loves you, Im the one who needs you
Make this one for me
Dont close youe eyes tonight
Just look at me and see how many times I cried for you
Dont close your eyes tonight
Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight

Before I Close my Eyes
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last sound I must hear is your voice saying I love you.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last thing my lips must press up against is yours.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last thing my eyes must gaze upon in yours.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last touch I must feel is the warmth of your embrace.
I must do all these things before I close my eyes every night because tomorrow is not promise, and if tonight should be my last night I want it to end with you.
Will You Be My Baby Tonight?
Will you be my baby tonight?
Or will you be my lover?
Will you whisper 'turn out the light'
Or will there be another
Less enticing way of saying
It's time to go to sleep
Will you close your eyes awake
So you can secrets keep.
Will you want me for yourself?
Or want yourself untouched?
Will you hear me crying soft
When this all gets too much?
Will you be my baby tonight?
Or will i be your chattel
Will you be my baby tonight?
Or shall we resume battle?
Will you admit of some sweet words
Or will nods and noise suffice
Were you ere my baby tonight
Just once and maybe twice
Will you be my baby tonight?
Or will you be my lover?
Will you be my baby tonight?
Or hide beneath the cover?

Baby Come Out Tonight
Baby, wont you come out tonight
Just come up the hill
cause theres a full moon on the risin
Hey baby, cant you steal away
You know I really need to see you tonight
I just got word you was packin it in
Whats the matter
This old town got you crazy again
I can see the sad look in your eyes
But I dont know how to say goodbye
And tommorrow, youre gonna have your day
Take your wife and youre gonna run away
Baby while Im wailin
Youll be sailin like a hog across the bay singin
Ooo, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Mmmmm, baby, wont you come out tonight
Oh baby, wont you come out tonight
Well run up the hill and well dance in the moonlight
Let me gaze into your eyes til we both go blind
Oh baby, can I see you tonight
Im just tryin to find a way to make it last
Good friends, they seem to slip away so fast
An I know were both headed down seperate tracks
An when ya go, baby dont look back
There wont be no more sleepin over on a tuesday night
No more runnin to the races for a dark horse at midnight
No more dancin after hours
Singin in the showers
Or clingin to each other in the soft mornin light singin
Ooo, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh baby, wont ya come out tonight
Oh baby, wont ya come out tonight
Ill meet ya on the corner
And youll be there at midnight
Oh baby, can you steal away
You know I really want to see ya tonight
Ooo baby, can you come out tonight
Well run up the hill and dance again in the moonlight
Oh baby, can you steal away
I really wanna see you tonight
Fade:
Oh baby, wont ya come out tonight
Come up the hill
Theres a full moon on the rise
Oh baby, can ya steal away
Baby, wont ya come out tonight
Oooooo...

Close Your Eyes
Oh come and take me away
I want to be with you
There's nothing more to say
Could my wish come true
Can you hear me now
I'm screaming it aloud
I wish you'd come somehow
Oh hear me now
I know that you
Have a lot to say
But can you
Pick some other day
To tell me anything but
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Just like a bird
You give me wings
Just like a star
You make me sing
It's unbelieveable
What you can do to me
And indescribable
How happy I can be
And I can't go on forever
Without us being together
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Right now
Just hold me tight
And forget everything
Tonight
Right now
Don't think at all
I'll be here when you need me
To catch you when you fall
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight

Cant Get To Sleep At Night
Cant get to sleep at night
Cant get sleep tonight, no matter how I try
Cant get you off of my mind, cant get to sleep tonight
Spoke to you today, called on the telephone
You sounded very far away
Baby I love you, I still love you
Cant get to sleep tonight, no matter what I do
Just cant get you off of my mind, stuck on you,
Stuck like glue
We both live separately, Ive found somebody new
And hes real, real good to me, but baby, I love you
I still love you
Cant get to sleep at night
Dont want to believe that its over
I keep telling myself one more time
So I lie awake with a heartache
Youre always on my mind
Haunting my memory
Think about you all the time
Cant get to sleep tonight, no matter how I try
Just cant get you off of my mind, stuck to you
Spoke to you today, called you on the telephone
You sounded very far away
But I love you, I still love
Cant get to sleep tonight, no matter what I do, what I do
Just cant get you off of my mind
Cant get to sleep tonight, no matter how I try
Just cant get you off of my mind...
Cant get to sleep tonight, just cant get you off of my mind

Ah, ladies and gentlemen, I dont know if you realize it,
But tonight youre in for a special treat. no, no, no, not that, not that!
You only get that treat on full moons. besides, I know theres a lot of young people here,
And I would want anybody to...
Last time it happened, grown men where weeping. policemen where turning in their badges.
Oh, I get, I get, everyone was intimidated tonight by all the security precautions, oh.
Well, just remember their motto is protect and serve?
I wanna get

Close to you baby like the coldest of ice,
Close to you baby like a siamese twin,
Close to you baby like Im feeling all right.

Close to you baby.
Dont know what to say or do.

I Wanna Take Forever Tonight
(eric carmen/dean pitchford)
Feel your breath
On my shoulder
And I know we couldnt get any closer
I dont wanna act up
I just wanna make love
As we move
Into the night
I get crazy
Thinking how its gonna be with you baby
I dont wanna play rough
Ive been giving you enough
Whoa baby, baby, baby
I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
Im gonna give you all the love that Ive got
You know, I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
When we close the door
All I need is in your eyes
Whoa, whoa
I wanna take forever tonight
Touch my lips
Im on fire
Youre the only one Ill ever desire
Turn the lights down low
Make the world go slow
When Im holding you
Tonight
Its so easy
Nothing moves me like you do when you tease me
And to rush would be a crime
I just wanna stop time
With you baby, baby
I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
Im gonna give you all the love that Ive got
You know, I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
When we close the door
All I need is in your eyes
Whoa,whoa
I wanna take forever
And when I lay beside you
I wanna see what drives you out of your mind
Ooh, baby
I wanna tantalize you
Take all of my time with you
Whoa baby, baby, baby
I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
Im gonna give you all the love that Ive got
You know, I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
Give you all the love that Ive got
Oh, I wanna take forever tonight
Gonna stay in this moment forever
I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
Give you all the love that Ive got
Oh, I wanna take forever tonight

The News
A billion people died on the news tonight
But not so many cried at the terrible sight
Well mama said
It's just make believe
You can't believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight
Who's the one to decide that it would be alright
To put the music behind the news tonight
Well mama said
You can't believe everything you hear
The diagetic world is so unclear
So baby close your ears
On the news tonight
On the news tonight
The unobtrusive tones on the news tonight
And mama said
Why don't the newscasters cry when they read about people who die?
At least they could be decent enough to put just a tear in their eyes
Mama said
It's just make believe
You cant believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight

Lets Pretend
(eric carmen)
I cant sleep nights
Wishing you were here beside me
Cant help feeling
Thats way it ought to be
You know we could run (run, run) away
And I couldnt bear to hear
The things theyd say
Oh no
Baby lets pretend
That tonight could live forever
If we close our eyes
And believe it might come true
Baby lets pretend
We could always be together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you
Somehow, someday
Things are gonna be so different
Dont cry
Some way
I promise it will be all right
So now that were all alone
I couldnt bear
To ever take you home
Oh no
Baby lets pretend
That tonight could live forever
If we close our eyes
And believe it might come true
Baby lets pretend
We could always live together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you
So take me now
My love cant wait
Were almost there now darlin
Darlin hold me, hold me
Hold me
Baby lets pretend
That tonight could live forever
If we close our eyes
And believe it might come true
Baby lets pretend
We could always live together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you

But when you smiled I had to take a chance

Sweet Dreams
(graham russell)
This is the time when you need a friend
You just need someone near
Im not looking forward to the night I will spend
Thinking of you when youre not here
How many times will I think about the things
Id like to do
Always denied the right to live my life the way I want
I want to share it with you
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
Ill think of your kiss as the days roll by
And Ill write the words you love
And what I cant say in a letter
Will just have to wait till I get home
Ooh theres not much time to tell you half the things I should
Only that Im so glad I fell in love with you
And Id do it again if I could
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
(repeat chorus)
Sleep like a child resting deep
You dont know what you give me I keep
For these moments alone

Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight

If you think I dont need you
Then take a look in my eyes
Maybe these aint raindrops
Falling out of the sky
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone
If you think I dont need you
Then baby youre wrong
If you think I dont love you
What could I do to prove to you baby
My love is true
I sing the same old song
Since youve been gone
If you think I dont love you
Then baby youre wrong
My life aint been the same since you left me
I aint had a wink of sleep in seven days
I dont know what to do Im going crazy
I just walk the floor at night and call your name
If you think I dont do right
Ill change my ways
Ill do like you want me to, Ill be your slave
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone
If you think I dont need you
Well baby youre wrong
If you think I dont do right

Take Me Down
Words and music by j.p. pennington and mark gray
Fly away with me tonight.
Take me on a one-way flight in your lovin arms, and evrythings gonna be alright.
Youre the one who took my hand when no one else could understand.
Youre the one who moves me like nobody else can.
Chorus:
Take me down where I wanna be.
Turn around, the man who lives inside of me.
Take me down and love me all night long.
Hold me close and make me strong.
Take me down. take me down tonight.
In your eyes I see the light.
Its your emotions glowin bright.
So keep the fires burnin, and let it warm me through the night.
You can be a part of me, cause youre what love was meant to be.
You and me, baby, well set the flame inside free.
Chorus
You dont have to stay forever
Lets just put our hearts together, share another night in ecstasy.
We know that its feelin better evry time we get together.
Maybe love was meant for you and me. whoa, take me down
Where I wanna be.
Turn around, the man who lives inside of me.
Take me down and love me all night long.
Hold me close and make me strong.
Take me down. take me down tonight.
Take me down tonight. take me down tonight. take me down tonight.

Boys On The Radio
Do what you want
Cos Ill do anything
And Ill take the blame
Whats mine is yours
You can have all of it
And I learn to beg
Oh, the boys on the radio
They crash and burn
They fold and fade so slow
In your endless summer night
Ill be on the other side
When youre beautiful and dying
All the world that youve denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes and really sleep tonight
Tonight
I want whats yours
Oh, Id give anything and
Ill take the pain
I wait alone
For what will never come and
I throw it all away
Oh, the boys on the radio
They crash and burn
They fold and fade so slow
In your endless summer night
Ill be on the other side
When youre beautiful and dying
All the world that youve denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes and really sleep tonight
Your beauty blinds
If I let you in
Under my skin
And risen every angel slain
He said hed never, ever
Ever go
Never ever, ever go away
Baby, Ive gone away
In your endless summer night
Ill be on the other side
When youre beautiful and dying
All the world that youve denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes and really sleep tonight
Your beauty blinds
I know where are running to, please come back
Oh, come back again
I hear the truth, its coming from you
Oh, come back, wont you come back again
In your endless summer night
Ill be on the other side
When youre beautiful and dying
All the world that youve denied
When the water is too deep
I will ease your suffering
When the glitter fades in morning
Turn away and you will find my empty eyes
Your beauty blinds
I know that you are rotten to the core
I know that you dont love me anymore
I know that you are rotten to the core

Baby, You Look Good To Me Tonight
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the spirit album, and has also been released on the country classics album.
Ive been out on this highway now
Five days in a row
My words all run together
My feet are movin slow
Ive got to stop and eat
While its still light
Theres a local angel sitting on my right
Do you believe in love at first sight
Baby, you look good to me tonight
Im ordinarily very shy
And Id be polite if I had time
Baby, you look good to me tonight
Tomorrow, Ill be good and gone
Please dont make me wait that long
Baby, you look good to me tonight
i get off at eleven, she said
And walked away
She poured a cup of coffee and
She brought it on a tray
She said, it would be nice if you could stay
Youre the best idea Ive had all day
Usually I put up a fight but
Baby, you look good to me tonight.
Well Im ordinarily very shy
But I grinned at her as I ate my pie
Baby, you look good to me tonight
I thought I must be in a dream
When she asked me if I wanted cream
Baby, you look good to me tonight
All in all you know
Its not a bad life on the road
If youve got wheels to roll
And lucky stars above
Your destinys your own
You go as far as you can go
And if theres time to sleep
Theres time to make love
I came, I saw, I conquered
But I rode off in the sun
But I know the look she left with me
Keeps telling me she won
Her face is the only thing I see
Whispering those words of prophesy
i may come easy, but I dont come free
Youre never gonna see the last of me
Baby, you look good to me tonight
I was born to love you now cant you see
Baby, you look good to me tonight
Im ordinarily very shy
But I take the time to satisfy
Baby, you look good to me tonight

When I Close My Eyes
(mark alan springer/nettie musick)
Theres so many things
I didnt say
And even though
It may be too late
I want you to know
I still love you so
Every car I meet
Looks like your car
Every movie I see
You play the leading part
Youre on my mind
Cant leave you behind
When I close my eyes
Youre all I see
In the dark of night
Youre in my dreams
Throughout the day
Youre easy to find
Youre always there
When I close my eyes
In my mind I know
Youre far away
But here in my heart
Nothing has changed
Im still holdin you
Like I used to
On a busy street
In a crowded room
Wherever I go
Its just me and you
Together again
Girl it never ends
When I close my eyes
Youre all I see
In the dark of night
Youre in my dreams
Throughout the day
Youre easy to find
Youre always there
When I close my eyes
Youre always there
When I close my eyes
