When Lovers Become Strangers
Youre looking at him across the room
Wondering just how it all slipped away so soon
Youre looking to find some look in his eyes
That will take you back to yesterday
Dont remember the when or the where or why
All you know is that something has changed inside
And you cant bring it back no matter how you try
You know its over, youve got to say goodbye
Chorus:
Its such a shame, when lovers become strangers
Its such a shame, when you dont know each other any more
And all the memories that you shared
Are all thats still there
Its such a shame, when lovers become strangers
You cant seem to find the right words to say
And its too late for talking now anyway
Theres no one to blame its just not the same
And its never gonna be the same again no
So youre trying to figure out what went wrong
Where does the feeling go when the feelings gone
And you pray for the strength just to carry on
Youve got to let go of something youve loved so long
Chorus
So kiss him goodbye, try to walk away
With your head held high
Think about the good times, dont cry, dont cry
Though its tearing you apart inside
Its such a shame, its such a shame
And you cant bring it back no matter how you try
You got to let go, youve gotta say goodbye

Too Gone, Too Long
Youve been too gone, too long,
Its too late to come back now
Its been so long since you walked out my door
Now youre just an old song nobody sings anymore
I gotta a new love and shes the true love
But darlin how could you have known?
Cause youve been too gone, for too long
Now its too late to come back home
Youve been a long way, goin the wrong way
Dont even set your suitcase down
You wanted to roam, now youre paying the bills
Youre an old rollin stone who ran over the hills
I had a good cry when you said goodbye
I didnt wanna let you go
But youve been too gone for too long
Now its too late to come back home
I had a good cry when you said goodbye
I didnt wanna let you go
But youve been too gone for too long
So why dont you just stay gone?
Youve been too gone for too long
Now its too late to come back home

Shame On The Moon
Words and music by rodney crowell
Until youve been beside a man
You dont know what he wants
You dont know if he cries at night
You dont know if he dont
When nothin comes easy
Old nightmares are real
Until you ve been beside a man
You dont know how he feels
Once inside a womans heart
A man must keep his head
Heaven opens up the door
Where angels fear to tread
Some men go crazy
Some men go slow
Some men go just where they want
Some men never go
Oh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon
Everywhere its all around
Comfort in a crowd
Strangers faces all around
Laughin right out loud
Hey watch where your goin
Step light on old toes
Cause until youve been beside a man
You dont know who he knows
Oh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon
Oh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon

Dont Look Back
Time to walk away
Youve run out of things to say
Everything ends up the same old story
You dont know where love went
But nothings making sense
You both know you cant fake it anymore
Dont look back hell see you cryin
Dont look back on love thats dyin
Make believe your heart is made of stone
Dont look back into his eyes
Youve already said goodbye
Its over now; youve got to let him go
Hes the one you love
But sometimes love is not enough
Its too complicated to explain
No you never will forget
But youll get over it
Someday just sweet memories will remain
So dont look back; dont break your will
Dont look back at him until
Youre far enough to let your feelings show
Dont look back into those eyes
Youve gone back so many times
Its over now youve got to let him go
Theres a time for everything including leavin
Theres a time the heart admits defeat
And starts its grieving

Hidden Shame
Im sorry to say that you dont know me
Im sad in ways you never understood
Each time I try to tell the ugly truth
You always let it pass you by
You said I d never tell you a lie
Just because I could
Did you really think I was a bad man?
You always said that that should be my middle name
But you dont know the half of it
You dont know how that name fits
You dont know my hidden shame
Hidden shame, shame, shame
That I cant get free
From the blame and the torture
And the misery
Must it be my secret for eternity?
Till you know my hidden shame you really dont know me
Well, theres a different kind of prison
And it dont even have to look much like a cell
Its already on your mind
Boy, we can see it in your eyes
So, heres the bars and walls as well
Well, you know Im never coming home, babe
You said youd stand by me until I cleared my name
Sure its easy to be strong
When you know the charge is wrong
But the days and weeks get long
When youve got a hidden shame
Chorus
I had a friend when I was just a boy
We were like brothers, we would run and hide
And we went walking on a high hillside
And I really dont how it happened
He turned to me and had this strange look in his eye
And not a single word was spoken
I must have pushed him, but I dont remember why
And all at once, he lay there broken
And I walked down without him and I didnt even sigh
Chorus
They say you always hurt the one you love
And Im not saying if I did or if I didnt
But like my shame, that kind of love is always hidden
They locked me up here for the ideas in my head
They never got me for the thing I really did

Have You Ever Loved Somebody
(hicks / clarke / nash)
You say that you want me and now that youve got me youre gone
Think what youre doin or else youll regret what youve done
Dont come back tomorrow and say what we did wasnt right
Youll cry on your pillow and find it hard to sleep at night
Have you ever loved somebody
Dont you know just what its like
Hurting someone that youre close to
Have you ever loved all night all night
Remember what happened the last time that you said goodbye
Remember the saying that once bit and Ill be twice shy
Its no use me crying there is no denying its right
When thinking has ruined the feeling that we had to fight
Chorus
If you hear people talking now
Will you laugh or cry
If you cry Ill sympathize with you
If you laugh Ill die
If you laugh Ill die

Soul
Hang out my window and over your head
Stare at your feelings to see where they end
Youre waiting here for someone else to break you from the inside
Youve been so composed
[chorus]
We all know theres always something tearing you apart
Its always so much longer than you counted on
And it hits you so much harder then you thought
But you dont worry, you dont worry
Cause youve got soul
Youre so heavy, youre so misunderstood
And I spent all my wishes wishing times were good
When I still could
Wait around here for someone else to take me past the good side
Youve been here so longer
[chorus]
We all know theres always something tearing you apart
Its always so much longer than you counted on
And it hits you so much harder then you thought
But you dont worry, you dont worry
Cause darling, youve got so much soul
Darling, youve got so much soul
[chorus]
Well, theres always something tearing you apart
Its always so much longer than you counted on
And it hits you so much harder then you thought
Then you ever thought it would
But you dont worry, and you dont worry
Cause you dont worry, you dont worry
Cause you dont worry, you dont worry
Cause youve got soul

Going Under
I hear the door slam shut, so I know that youre home
Youve been out all night, Ive been here alone
And Ive been wondering if youre the same person I knew
The bright lights that shine in your eyes, they make me blind
I hear a footstep on the stairs so I know that youre near
Youve returned from pursuing your nocturnal career
And I dont ask where youve been, with who, or if theyre your friend
cause I dont really want to know right now, I dont know when I will again
Chorus
Going under, drifting down, going under
And I know youve still got a ways to go down before
We can rise back up into the light
Were going under, drifting down...
I hear you coughing in the hall so I know youre all right
It will be morning soon, through the gloom I see daylight
But in this room right now I am alone, I am unsure
I dont know what you feel anymore and it scares me so

Dont Say Goodbye
(stock/aitken/waterman)
Dont say goodbye, girl (goodbye, girl)
Dont make me cry, girl (cry, girl)
cos I love you (love you)
Used to have such fun
Used to have good times
But now those days are gone
Used to have it all
Used to get on fine
But things just went wrong
Used to be in love
Thought we had it made
But everything has changed
We just grew apart
No one is to blame
** woh, time has made us strangers
Maybe we cant go on
But if love can take the changes
* dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Dont throw it all away
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Dont make me cry, girl
Youre my girl
Dont say goodbye to me
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
We could go along
Saying things were fine
But were just fooling ourselves
Maybe we should
Talk it out right now
And put things on the line
Everyone in love
Goes through times like these
Its just part of the game
I remember
I used to call your name
Woh, things dont have to be this way
Love is the answer now
Maybe we could start again today

Dont say goodbye, girl

Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl

The Last Letter
Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Sitting alone up in your empty room
In the stillness of the night
Where all the many dreams that used to carry you
Are no longer in sight
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free to be complete
But, youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
All the love you need is just a prayer away
Let it in to where you are
Youve made it to the edge of seventeen
Thinking now youve reached the end of the line
But theres so much of life that you have never seen
Now you wont have the time
You say that you dont hear the music play
So youre ready to give up the dance
Now that nothing really matters anyway
Oh, you give up your chance
But do you know that you give up your chance
At a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free--to be complete
But youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
Jesus is waiting just a prayer away
Let him in to where you are
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime

Out last night in my sunday stripes

At the tuesday hop if I wear drainpipes
(you say youre gonna throw me)
The way you treat mes frightening
Strike me down like lightning
You know its a shame (you didnt want to know)
Its a game (you say youre gonna throw me)
Out of town theres a story round
(youre staying with another)
At the picture show so the rumour goes
(youve been playing with my brother)
I dont know where Im standing
You give me such a bumpy landing
Its a shame (youre staying with another)
Its a game (youve been playing with my brother)
Getting a bad reaction
Chasin my girls best friend
Wonder should I walk on home
Plan a break-up or shake hands and make up again
Its a shame, its a game (its a a shame its a game)
Wah ooh
Its a shame, its a game
Wah ooh
I was out tonight looking wild in white
(you didnt want to know me)
Tried to catch a hint on how to jive
(you didnt want to show me)
I havent got a dogs chance
If I dont know how to hip-dance
Its a shame (you didnt want to know me)
Its a game (you didnt want to show me)
Wah ooh

(its a shame, its a game)
And I really thought my drainpipes were outta sight yeah, its a shame

Well, you struck me down like lightning, baby, I didnt know what to do, ha

Theres so many rumors about me and about you I dont know what to do

Someday
(branson/mindel)
Theres only one way to go when youre up too high
Youve gotta come down; youve gotta come down
And theres only one way of saying the word goodbye
Youve gotta come down; youve gotta come down
Youve gotta be sure youre not throwing your life away
You know I can say youll regret it someday
But someday, many tears and far away
Theres gonna be something thats gonna make you want to stay
And if someday you should wake and want me near
Ill still be here
Theres only one thing to do when you reach the end
Youve gotta let go; youve gotta let go
And theres only one scene when its all pretend
Youve gotta let go; youve gotta let go
Youve gotta be sure youre not throwing your life away
You know I can say youll regret it someday
And you know that someday, when theres no one sleeping on your mind
Youre gonna wake up and see tomorrow isnt hard to find
And if years dont heal the memories you feel
Ill still be here
Someday
And if someday you should wake and want me near
Ill still be here
Someday

Schmuck
1) youve got some nerve to tell me to go
Lifes not that simple, you cant make it so
Should we talk about right and wrong
Or why we cant seem to get along
2) life with you felt so alone
Somehow I put you on some kind of throne
And now here Im the one to blame
Does it make it easy, to forget my name?
Chorus -
Well, I cant live on memories, I know that would be wrong
And Im not running from you, you were already gone
Its just some stupid game that we play
Would things change now if I stayed
3) sorry to be the one to drive in the knife
But you took me for granted, like Id settle for such a life
Was I wrong to share a bed
With some loving arms instead?
4) youre miles away when I look you in the eye
Ive cried so hard now Im too tired to even try
Now you say baby come back please,
Dont you remember the way, the way it used to be.
Chorus -
But I cant...
Bridge -
And it hurts too much to see you throw yourself away
I know youve got too many dreams youre too afraid to face
Do you really think you can forget to love yourself
Cause now youve left me with a shell
Of someone that I used to know well
4) that bottle in your lap is so cliche
Youre such a rebel, what else is there for me to say
Has that bottle been your friend?
Cause when I shut this door, you wont see me again
Chorus -
Cause I cant.....

Victim Of Love
Livin on your own can be a lonely game
A face in the crowd - no one knows your name
Its a table for one and a broken heart to go
Shes the kind of lover that you always dreamed
Would come to stay and never wanna leave
But thats all changed - shes dealt the final blow
Heaven knows what you were thinkin of
Dont blame yourself youre just a victim of love
It doesnt matter who was right or wrong
When the fire is over - when the magics gone
You pick up the pieces and do the best you can
It knocks you down but you try it again
You get a little older its a cryin shame
Sometimes things dont work out like you plan
Whos gonna help when youve had enough
It aint no secret youre a victim of love
Heaven knows what you were thinkin of
Dont blame yourself youre just a victim of love
One goodbye was really all it took
Now you thumb through the pages of your little black book
But somehow all the numbers look the same
Youve been thinkin how to get around it
But there aint nothin you can do about it
Nothin ventured - nothin gained
Aint nothin you cant rise above
Call it what you want but youre a victim of love
Whos gonna help you when youve had enough
Aint no secret youre a victim of love
I dont wanna lose your love...

And dont take to long

Everythings gone all wrong

So Im begging you please
Bring your sweet love back to me(please come back to me)

Late at night

But youre not there(youre just not there baby)
I know you still care(I know you still care)
And all I need
Youre soft and love, lovely kiss
You give to me (to me)

When I see you, baby you will
So hurry home
You know you made me just so

I Wish That I Could Tell You
(anthony jerome martin, van stephenson, reese wilson)
How do you tell someone youre letting go
I wish that I could tell you
But youre asking me things that I dont know
I wish that I could tell you
The words that I would say
Sound as empty as the way you feel inside
While the silence in between
Tells me everything that you deny
I dont know how to help you
I wish that I could tell you
How to tell me goodbye
I dont know how you leave it all behind
I wish that I could tell you
Is it true a heart heals itself with time
I wish that I could tell you
How do you choose
Do you hurt em with the truth or with a lie
Where do you go to find the courage
You know I could never find
I dont know how to help you
I wish that I could tell you
How to tell me goodbye
Where do you turn, where do you go
When youve finally reached the end of the road
How do you say it I just dont know
When it comes to leaving youre on your own
How do you tell someone youre letting go
I wish that I could tell you
I wish that I could tell you

Morale... Youve Lost That Loving Feeling
Dont talk
Close the door
Youve been here before
Your shape dim
Im an old man now
The airs thin
The walls very damp now
And if I dont go
Ill always be stuck here in this poor little room
With a view of the corner
I dont forget
The light growing weak now
Experience is useless
Unless you can learn
And Ive never met anyone
Who used their knowledge
To avoid those mistakes made again and again
And if I dont go
Ill always be stuck here in this poor little room
With a view of the corner
You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips
And theres no tenderness like before in your fingertips

So dont, dont, dont, dont let it slip away

Woah, that loving feeling
Bring back that loving feeling

We Will Not Be Lovers
You just stepped into the maintrack
Climbed down off the fence
Words are your weapon
Lies are your defence
I know what you want
And I see what you see
Youre looking for somebody
But he isnt me
Find yourself another
Because we will not be lovers
How your eyes are like tortures
And your presence is bliss
I never knew time
Could speed and zip like this
The touch of your flesh
Is tough to resist
Planets collide, collide
At the smack of your kiss
But you can kiss your brother
Because we will not be lovers
Now youre pulling down curtains
Youve been sparking old flames
Youve been causing disturbance
Crying for shame
Youve been knocking on doors
Youve been abusing my name
Youve been casting up doubt
Youve been throwing your blame
But you can throw it at your mother
We will not be lovers
Now the worlds full of trouble
Everybodys scared
The landlords are frowning
Cupboards are bare
People are scrambling
Like dogs for a share
Its cruel and its hard
But it nothing compared to
What we do to each other
To each other
We will not be lovers!
We will not be lovers, no
We will not be lovers, no

Dont You
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Dont you
You ever let me know how
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that youve burned out
Dont you
You want to let it go
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Dont you
You walk upon my heels now
You walk on
And I should call your soul out but I feel Ive gained control now
Dont you
You tell me what to do as you
You twist and turn your thoughts around
Oh, this road its getting long
Stones, dont you
Theyre getting harder and youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping further than youve been before
But I dont need to know how
And I dont need to blow out your candle
Its only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to dose your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath youre going
Your deeper breath youre going
Under this time
Its under this time
You, youve got to go now
Wont you, youve got to go not
And dont you, you know it
Dont you, you know it
Youve got to go now
Dont you, youve gotta go now
