This State Of Mind
Chorus
Oh I cant go on living in this state of mind
Its stay and go crazy or leave it all behind
One way or another Im gonna cross that line
cause I cant go on living in this state of mind
Theres no way to avoid her
Living in this tiny texas town
So Im packing up my broken heart
Leaving and I pray I dont break down
Well I really love the lone star
But I cant stand seeing her around
Chorus
Im outside amarillo
Feeling better every mile I roll
And when I hit glen rio
Thats as far as her memory will go
Well, running from a woman
Might sound foolish I know

Tulsa Time
By danny flowers
Well, I left oklahoma
Driving in a pontiac,
Just about to lose my mind.
I was going to arizona,
Maybe on to california
Where people all live so fine.
My mother says Im crazy,
My baby calls me lazy,
But Im gonna show them all this time
cause you know I aint no fool and
i dont need no more damn schoolin.
I was born to just walk the line.
Living on tulsa time.
Living on tulsa time.
Gonna set my watch back to it
cause you know that Ive been through it.
Living on tulsa time.
So there I was in hollywood,
Thinking I was doing good,
Talking on the telephone line.
They dont want me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs;
My mama says my babys doing fine.
So then I started winking,
Then I started thinking
That I really had a flash this time.
That I had no bussiness leaving,
And nobody would be grieving;
You see Im on tulsa time.

Nowhere Bound
You save up your money, buy you some shoes
The highways calling and shes right on cue
Just when you thought you had it beat
Youre leaving town on a one-way street
Chorus
Its a hard, hard lesson
But youre gonna have to learn it
Its a long cold swim up against the current
And somewhere down the line
Youre gonna have to turn it around
cause boy right now youre nowhere bound
Her words still echo thru your mind
But fade away as you cross the county line
Running from trouble or from the truth
It doesnt matter either way you lose
Chorus
Well you walk ten miles just to make new tracks
But you turn around and find that its twenty miles back
And its never gonna change it you keep leaving
Your hearts gonna break, but never break even
Where to now, do you know?
One things for certain
Gonna reap just what you sow
And all you planted was heartache and pain
Dont look now but it looks like rain.

Living my life without you
Something I dont wanna do
So please dont walk away
And leave me all alone
Baby, stay for just a while
[chorus:]
Why cant you stay with me
For just a while
Cuz if you leave
Youll take a piece of me
Why cant you stay
With me for just a while
Boy, you know you have the key to my heart
[112]
Oh baby, girl I dont want you to go
You are my heart and soul
The reason that I live
The one that I adore
And I cant stand the thought
Of being by myself
But I cant see myself
Loving no, nobody else

Ill be right by your side

Who can love you
Why wont you stay with me awhile

Say Youll Be Mine
Chorus:
Do you wanna be in love forever
Do you wanna make my dream come true
Let me be the one to kiss and hold you
Say youll be my baby
Can you see the two of us together
Living in love this whole life through
Do you wanna be in love forever
Say youll be mine
I can remember
When my mind was clear and free
Now theres a feeling
Coming over me
The sweetest attraction
That my heart has ever seen
Im going crazy making sense of anything
(repeat chorus twice)
I really wonder
Is there magic in your smile
Taking me under
Got me acting like a child
Something about you
Hits me like avalance
I try to stand my ground
But I dont stand a chance
(repeat chorus)
Every time I close my eyes I deram about
Hugging you, holding you, kissing you boy
Its driving me crazy
But even if it takes forever
To win your heart and your love and your devotion
I know its gonna be worth the wait
Ooh, say youll be my baby
Ooh, be my baby
Ooh, oh darlin, say youll be mine
(repeat chorus)
Do you wanna, do you, do you wanna
Do you wanna be in love
Do you wanna, do you, do you wanna
Say youll be my baby
Do you wanna, do you, do you wanna
Do you wanna be in love
Do you wanna, do you, do you wanna
Say youll be mine

Borrowed Time
Got the word, getting ready
Gonna get my pay from ? ? ? ?
Im in light, ? ? ? ?
When the action is hot, ? ? ? ?
No town, no city
Gonna be free from the jumping jack
Kiss of life, getting gritty
If the mule dont kick you know the mule dont ride
And I know, yes I know, well I know
Thats the way to go
And I know, and I know
And I know that Im gonna get it down the road
Chorus:
Cause Im living on a borrowed time
Do it your way, Ill do it mine
Living on a borrowed time
Dont need a shove, dont need a sign
Call me names, call me crazy
Dont try to stop me when I feel this way
Its a game, (whoopsy daisy? )
Here comes another girl to make my day
And I know, yes I know, well I know
Thats the way to go
And I know, yes I know
Im gonna get up when Im up on the road

Superman Inside
By eric clapton, doyle bramhall ii & susannah melvoin
Living, loving, aint going to waste my life.
Singing music, someday the sun dont shine.
I dont want to be the one,
The one that can never say,
I need to let it out, wont you let me in.
Give it all up, surrender thankfully.
Fall down on my knees, my hands open wide.
I dont want to be the one,
The one that can never say,
I need to let it out, wont you let me in.
Look in the mirror, even with a broken heart Im fine.
Keep on pushing, getting closer to peace of mind.
Look in the mirror, even with a broken heart Im fine.
Living is so sweet now with superman inside.
No more running, aint going to hide away.
Im standing outside in the pouring rain.
cause I dont want to be the one,
The one that can never say,
I need to let it out, wont you let me in.

Lauralee made her mind up, she had enough
She jumped the fence right there and then to go someplace she's never been

She waived the nine to five a big goodbye, she just got tired
Of living someone else's life
She heard the sky is full of stars in Buenos Aires

Cashing in her ira baby (v2 maxin' out her visa, baby)
She's gonna start living
It's time to start living
Someone else's life
Someone else's life

Six years on she's in a cocktail apron doing hardtime
Maryanne called her sister said put my stuff in storage
Yah and feed the cat, I don't know when I'm coming back

She waived the nine to five a big goodbye, she just got tired
Of living someone else's life
She heard the sky is full of stars in Buenos Aires

It's time to start living
Someone else's life
Someone else's life
There's a whole new world
Waiting for you girl
Chorus:
She waived the nine to five a big goodbye, she just got tired
Of living someone else's life
She heard the sky is full of stars in Buenos Aires
If you're gonna say she's crazy
You better say it in Spanish baby

It's time to start living
It's time to start living
Time start living
Someone else's life

A troubled heart and a troubled mind
Is all Im gonna leave behind
Im movin on down the line
Dont shout me down Im doin fine
Youve been hard and heavy on my soul
Gotta lighten the load and let you go
Lifes too short, aint got the time
For a troubled heart and a troubled mind
Got a v-8 ford slung low to the ground
Got a highway leading me outta town
A road map open to the promised land
Ive taken just about as much as I can stand

The Real Thing
Never mind the stars in the sky
Never mind the when and the why
Got a feeling higher than high
This is the real thing
No more living in shame
And Im not gonna run or gonna hide away
No more telling all those lies
Its been too long
No more living in chains
No, I dont give a damn whet the people say
Theres no use holding back desire
Weve burnt our fingers now lets jump into the flames
Chorus:
Never mind the stars in the sky
Never mind the when and the why
Got a feeling higher than high
This is the real thing
Never mind the rain and the storm
Well keep each other warm
We got something stronger than strong
This is the real thing
Gonna walk out hand in hand
So let them criticise cos they dont understand
Weve got nothing to hide
Its just love
Ive had enough of shy
So lets go out and show them what we have inside
Theres no use holding back desire
Weve burnt our fingers now lets jump into tho fire
(chorus)
Never mind the stars in the sky baby
Never mind the when and the why baby
Never mind the stars in the sky baby

Kick Him When Hes Down
Hey, youre a riddle
I say as I move aside
(like I really need your advice)
But you wont leave it alone
Little men try but dont get a lot done
Living in sin doesnt move me either way
I get a feeling youre so vague
Like I said before
Little men come when anything goes
Chorus
When the rain comes I sit home and pray
Make it all numb
I wish it all away
All I really need is just somewhere to hide away
Kick him when hes down
Here alone Ill put up and fight
Kick him when hes down
Beat me all the way Ill take it all night
Kick him when hes down
Hey, dont worry, Ill get along home alright
Hey, everybodys supposed to be the same
So how come theyre so lame?
Its like taking a fall
Keep on running back into that wall
Awake in a dream, get up and go to work
But Im feeling like such a jerk
Like I said before
Little men come when everything goes
Chorus
Hey, youre a riddle I say as I move aside
(like I really need your advice)
But you wont leave it alone
Little men try but dont get a lot done
Living in sin doesnt move me either way

Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness
You come home late and you come home early
You come on big when youre feeling small
You come home straight and you come home curly
Sometimes you dont come home at all
Chorus:
So what in the worlds come over you
And what in heavens name have you done
Youve broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
Youre out there running just to be on the run
Well I got a heart that burns with a fever
And I got a worried and a jealous mind
How can a love thatll last forever
Get left so far behind
Repeat chorus:
Its a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow
Its crossed the evil line today
Well, how can you ask about tomorrow
We aint got one word to say

I Cant Believe
[chorus:]
I cant believe that love has gone away from me
I cant believe that love has gone away
I cant believe that love has gone away from me
I cant believe that love has gone away
(I cant believe youve gone away)
[112]
Hours, days and nights I sat and I prayed
Never thought that I would see this day
I didnt think that it could hurt so bad
A broken heart was never meant for me
[faith]
Lord, let it please rain on my face
So that it could wash away all my tears
If this is the house that love is in let me leave
Cuz I dont wanna be hurt like this again
I cant believe
[chorus]
[112]
Many times I watched you while you were asleep
With thoughts of living life with only you
If I had read your mind and things could have changed
Ill give anything to be with you again
[112]
All I ever wanted was to see your face
And hear your pretty voice from day to day
Now that youve gone I have no reason for feeling that way
I cant believe youve gone away
[chorus]
[112]
When I look back on the times weve shared
Our life was ok, now what else could come down
[faith]
Dont you know you were my love (my only love)
And I cant believe that youve gone away

Cross Of Gold
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
Where do you stand
What is your statement
What is it youre trying to say
Whats in your hand
Whats in your basement
Whats in the cards you dont play
Are you holding the key
Or are you intending
To pick the lock of heavens gate
Its confusing to me
The message youre sending
And I dont know if I can relate
Chorus:
Whats you line
Tell me why you wear your cross of gold
State of mind
Or does it find a way into your soul
Is it a flame
Is it a passion
A symbol of love living in you
Or is it a game
Religion in fashion
Some kind of pahse youre going thru
We all travel the extremes
From cellar to rafter
Looking for a place in the sun
So Im trying to see
What youre headed after
But I dont know where youre coming from
Chorus bridge: (spoken)
For some its simply something to wear around your neck
Just a chain
Jewelry
Is it decoration?
Is it an icon
Or proclomation?
An icon of what?
What?
For some its simply something to wear around your neck
Just a chain
It means a lot more than that to me

State of the Heart"

lyrics by Eric Mc Cusker
I know you name
I told you mine
we've stopped and passed the time of day
you work in town
i work at night
that gives us six until seven
to work this out
Chorus: If I seem a little strange
it's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
in the state I'm in
you are the moon
I am the sea
you pull me in and faze on down at me
i was alone
i thinkg i wa immune
it's good to know
the door can still be open wide
Chorus
it's just the state of the heart
i want in the dark
in the state I'm in

Whatever Happened To True Love?
Hey I know its a modern world
And everybodys living for today
But you and I were gonna be the exception
Remember what you said letem all drop dead
Now all your friends are telling you that they
Have all been through this many times before
Listen I dont care what anyone else does
I only want to know where did our love go
Chorus
Whatever happened to true love?
Why does it never ever work that way?
Whatever happened to true love?
Is it really such a price to pay?
And was I really such a crazy fool
To think that we were different from the rest
And you say youre sure this is really the best thing
Hey dont make me laugh; Im the other half
Some people always paddle up the stream
And on a whim some others change their mind
I dont wanna sound like an old love song
I only want to know where did our love go

This One's For The Girls
This is for all you girls about thirteen
High school can be so rough, can be so mean
Hold onto, onto your innocense
Stand your ground when everybody's giving in
This one's for the girls
This is for all you girls about twenty-five
In little apartments just trying to get by
Living on, on dreams and Spaghetti-Os
Wondering where your life is gonna go
[Chorus:]
This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls
This is for all you girls about forty-two
Tossing pennies into the fountain of youth
Every laugh, laugh line on your face
Made you who you are today
[Chorus]
Yeah we're all the same inside
From one to ninety-nine

Crazy Ones
Shes got tights on her legs
Shes got a floppy french hat
Voodoo in her eyes
And endangered species on her back
She talks about the movies
She likes to talk about art
She can show you a good time
But youll never touch her heart
Chorus:
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well im drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this
Shes got backstage access
And shes dancin? in the aisles
She looks a little sad and crooked
When you see her smile
Shes got the magic heart
She says you cannot understand
Shes got a secret hurt
She aint gonna share with no man
Chorus:
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well im drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this
Shes got her mind on her business
She never wants to be broke
Well, I hate to see her suffer
But she just does not get the joke
I cant afford her style of living
I cant afford to get so mad
Everytime I think about her
It just makes me sad
Chorus:
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well im drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this

Carried Away
There you are
Shiny as a morning star
Its a figure of speech
But youre still out of reach
You never told me loving you
Could be so wrong and right
And its gonna be a lonely night
I turn to you
You turn away
Youre looking at someone else
And here I am
Loving you more and more
We got an open door , my love
Oh let it be just a state of mind
And suddenly you appear
Chorus:
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
Cest la vie
So you wanna play another part
Can you say goodbye
Can you live a lie
Shell never give you what i
Gave you was my breaking heart
Better than I ever known
And if you can live without my love
You know youre gonna be alone
And here am i
Walking against the crowd
Calling your name out loud my love
Oh let it be just a state of mind
And suddenly you appear
Chorus:
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
And Im carried away

Baby there aint no final word
Ill be yours again
I got a world of tenderness
Yours until the end

Valley Of Lost Souls
I hit the highway
Touch life barely sixteen
No angel of mercy
Coming down to save the soul of me
I took a greyhound limousine
Straight to grand central nyc
It was ass, gas, or grass, living fast
Nobody rides for free
Chorus:
Living it up, giving it up
Living in the valley of lost souls
Wanting it all, taking the fall
Living in the valley of lost souls
Miss misery come ride me
How I love her company
She did boston justice
And wronged all the right out of me
The devil wears a black suit
He says Im livin like a bum
So what Im looking like Im half dead
A gypsy on the run
Chorus
Feels like times running out on me
But I wasnt born to play nobodys fool
Aint nobody gonna hold me down to play nobodys fool
Aint nobody gonna hold me down
Ive gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Solo
Somebody save me
