I Used To Think
Ive tried to fake it
Ive tried to lie about it
Ive tried to take it
Theres nothing new about it
I cant take a thing from you
Because I want what I want and it wouldnt do
Ive tried to make it
Theres nothing you can say
I used to think that things were going to be ok
I never wanted to think
There would be another way
Is there another way?
Ive tried to fake it
Ive tried to lie about it
Ive tried to make it
I didnt realize it
I cant take a thing from you
Because I want what I want and it wouldnt do
Ive tried to make it
Theres nothing you can say
I used to think that things were going to be ok
I never wanted to think
There would be another way
Is there another way?

Kid Things
What's there that makes you want to be lonely
What's there to keep you sitting at home
He'd always say no no no as if he wanted you to be hungry
well the same things you're missing
could get you into something else
Better leave when to stay is only
nothing but being alone

seemed like nothing at all

make it better than it was
Kid things

but kid things
make it better than it was
hey what you got that makes you want to be lonely
hey what you got that makes it a better way to be

i don't need anything else.

Cause all I know is when I'm with you

I Wish You Wouldnt Say That
I wish you wouldnt say that
I thought Id have to come right over
I thought I made it clear enough
I guess Ill have to make it clearer
Say something to change your mind
Bring me back the way I used to be
If it takes forever thats all right
Say the words that Ive been trying to hear
I wish you didnt tell her
I thought od have to come right over
I thought Id have to make it clearer
Now jimmys coming over
There are places that I wont forget
And I guess Im never going back
Guess its information that I lack
Ive told lies without a hint or regret
I wish you wouldnt say that

I wish you wouldnt say that

I Wouldnt Normally Do This Kind Of Thing
Ask me why
Ill say its most unusual
How can I even try to explain
Why today, I feel like dancing
Singing like lovers sing
When I wouldnt normally do this kind of thing
I wouldnt normally do this kind of thing
Ask me when
Ill say it started when I met you
And ever since then
I knew that the past wouldnt last
For right now I think Im running
A race I know Im gonna win
And I wouldnt normally do this kind of thing
I wouldnt normally do this kind of thing
If people say Im crazy
I tell 'em that it's true
I let them watch with amazement
Say it wont last beyond breakfast
Its just a phase hes going through
Denigrate or speculate
On what Im going through
Because it isnt the sort of thing Id normally do
Ask me what
Ill say I think its good for you
Believe it or not
I know where its all leading to
I feel like taking all my clothes off
And dancing to the rite of spring
And I wouldnt normally do this kind of thing
I wouldnt normally do this kind of thing
I wouldnt normally do this kind of
This kind of thing

The Tin Man
(kenny chesney/stacey slate/david lowe)
Saw a man in the movies that didnt have a heart
How I wish I could give him mine
Then I wouldnt have to feel it breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside would suit me fine
Its times like these
I wish I were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And Id never even know
Id give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldnt have a heart and I wouldnt need a soul
I couldnt see your leavin comin
You took me by surprise
Even now it still seems like a dream
But I know I cant be dreamin
cause as I lay down each night
The pain so great that it wont let me sleep
Its times like these
I wish I were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And Id never even know
Id give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldnt have a heart and I wouldnt need a soul
Well Id give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldnt have a heart and I wouldnt miss you so

Wouldnt Change A Thing About You
Philip bailey & frankie blue
If I were king and I ruled the world
I would make it safe for the boys and girls
Theres so much I would do
But I wouldnt change a thing about you
If the summer could last till spring
Or a fallen sparrow could sprout
New wings
Then Id change that too
But I wouldnt change a thing about you.
All the love that youve been giving
All the joy that weve been living
Through
I wouldnt change a thing about you
Bridge:
Too little love and too much hate
When times get tough
Looking for something cause
I just cant get enough
But when Im feeling down
Youre there to see me through
I wanna hold ya, touch ya
Give you love all the time
cause when Im with you, girl
I feel like the world is mine
Tell you baby, theres nothing
I wouldnt do for you
The sun comes out when I hear your name
I get butterfiles, do you feel the same?
Thats what love can do
No, I wouldnt change a thing about you
In this imperfect world were living
Perfect love like ours is rare, its true
No, I wouldnt change a thing about you
Bridge
If I were king and I ruled the world
I would make it safe for the boys and girls
Theres so much I would do
But I wouldnt change a thing about you
All the love that youve been giving
All the joy that weve been
Living through
I wouldnt change a thing about you
La la la la
La la la la
I wouldnt change a thing about you

I Wouldnt Go That Far
(dana mcvicker, bruce burch, vip vipperman)
Ill never forget that night long ago
When he drove me down that old dusty road
He took me as far as Id ever been
He wanted me and I wanted him
But Id always been told I shouldnt give in
Chorus:
I wouldnt go that far
I didnt follow my heart
He said he loved me
But I wasnt ready
And I wouldnt go that far
He was so patient, he didnt give up
With a ring in his hand and a heart full of love
He asked me for forever, I asked him to wait
To please understand these dreams I must chase
Though it was a promise I wanted to make
Repeat chorus
After all these years. I saw him again
He had his wife and his family with him
He said he was proud of all my success
He guessed both of us had found happiness
Repeat chorus
Yes, I knew he loved me
But I wasnt ready
And I wouldnt go that far

When Youre Not Around
You come into my life
And then you go away
You make me feel like a fool
For wanting you to stay
But Im a busy guy
A lot of things to do
But theres a reason why
Some of them just seem to lose their flavor
I feel like death warmed up
I cant taste the coffee in my cup
I feel so low Im underground
Every time youre not around
And if I didnt feel so high
And if I didnt feel so proud
Then I wouldnt cry
I wouldnt feel so down
When youre not around
You come and fill me up
With ecstasy and pain
And then I run on empty
til I see you again
But Ive got things to do
And places I can go
I guess I cant blame you
If some of them just seem to feel like nowhere
No, I dont feel so great
I cant taste the sandwich on my plate
I try to sing but theres no sound
Every time youre not around
And if I didnt feel so high
And if I didnt feel so proud
Then I wouldnt cry
I wouldnt feel so down
When youre not around

Spark Cindy
Spark and cindy live by their own means
They wouldnt have if Id only known where theyd been
And I want to make things a part of my life
And I want to see that things are going to be right
But if you cant even stand on your feet
And if you dont own the air that you breathe
Then its not for me to say
But I wouldnt live that way
And I wouldnt stand apart
And I wouldnt find the real
And I wouldnt play a part
And I wouldnt find in love
So misguided by some fool
And just what Im trying trying to say
Makes my head spin round the room

To Daddy
(dolly parton)
Mama never seemed to miss the finer things of life
If she did she never did say so to daddy
She never wanted to be more than a mother and a wife
If she did she never did say so to daddy
The only thing that seemed to be important to her life
Was to make our house a home and make us happy
Mama never wanted any more than what she had
If she did she never did say so to daddy
He often left her all alone but she didnt mind the staying home
If she did she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers and the cards he never sent her
If she did she never did say so to daddy
Being took for granted was a thing that she accepted
And she didnt need those things to make her happy
And she didnt seem to notice that he didnt kiss and hold her
If she did she never did say so to daddy
One morning we awoke just to find a note
That mama carefully wrote and left to daddy
And as we began to read it
Our ears could not believe it
The words that she had written there to daddy
She said the kids are older now they dont need me very much
And Ive gone in search of love I need so badly
I have needed you so long but I just cant keep holding on
She never meant to come back home
If she did she never did say so to daddy
Goodbye to daddy

Same Mistake Twice
Its one thing to make the
Same mistake twice
Another thing to make it
All of your life
Its one thing to make the
Same mistake twice
Another thing to make it
All of your life
The more you strengthen your denial
The more you turn to your desire
Na na na na
Appetite fight youll beat it yet
Na na na na
By hook or by crook on that I would bet
Just hang on in there
Its one thing to make the
Same mistake twice
Another thing to make it
All of your life
Lost in a barrel of wine and whining
Snared in a trap of your own designing
Dont be so sure
Nobody knows when it will end
Dont be so sure
Wouldnt I speak up if Im a true friend
Just hang on in there
Its one thing to make the
Same mistake twice
Another thing to make it
All of your
Life, your life
Another detail just goes by
Fallen into the abyss that has become your life
Its one thing to make the
Same mistake twice
Another thing to make it
All of your life
All of your life

Wouldnt It Be Nice
Wouldnt it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldnt have to wait so long
And wouldnt it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong
You know its gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together
Wouldnt it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through
Happy times together weve been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldnt it be nice
Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
Baby then there wouldnt be a single thing we couldnt do
We could be married
And then wed be happy
Wouldnt it be nice
You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But lets talk about it
Wouldnt it be nice

Momma never seemed to miss the finer things in life
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
She never wanted to be more than mother and a wife
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

Was to make our house a home and make us happy
Momma never wanted anymore than what she had

He often left her all alone
She didnt mind the stayin home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers
And the gifts he never gave her

So Ive gone in search for love I need so badly

Fake People
All the time
I look in your eyes
But what I see
And what you say to me
Are two totally different things
You pretend you put on a façade
I only wish you knew that I'm not
The only one who sees it as odd
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Because of their own insecurities
They try to pass on to you their idiosyncrasies
Thinking they are your friends you let them into your lives
But then they turn around and about you tell nothing but lies
Jealousy is such an ugly thing
Almost as ugly as hypocrisy
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Fake people
Fake people
So now I must ask who are your friends
Are they really what they seem to be
Or are they just trying to hide from you their envy
Do your friends really have your back
Or is it that that's where by them you've been stabbed
I once had a friend
One I thought would be there for me till the end
Then one day my happiness ended and theirs began
And when I needed someone to lean on
Behind me did no one stand
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Because of their own insecurities
They try to pass on to you their idiosyncrasies
Thinking they are your friends you let them into your lives
But then they turn around and about you tell nothing but lies
Jealousy is such an ugly thing
Almost as ugly as hypocrisy
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Fake people
Fake people
Be careful who you let know your business
'Cause in the end
Rumors about you they could be spreadin'
Don't put your trust in people who don't trust you
There's no telling what they're liable to say or do
Grow smarter with each experience
And you'll see true friends
Are the friends who are their with and for you till the end
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Because of their own insecurities
They try to pass on to you their idiosyncrasies
Thinking they are your friends you let them into your lives
But then they turn around and about you tell nothing but lies
Jealousy is such an ugly thing
Almost as ugly as hypocrisy
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Fake people
Fake people

Fake Friend(Revised, In Line Form, Oh and Viewable
The poison seeps from of your eyes.
I can read your lies.
Pure and innocent are dead and gone.
Fake it just fake it.
Pretending your some thing your not.
In the end I win cause I have had been in the alleys.
I've slept in a abandon home to keep from catching cold.
Where were you then my fake friend?
Who do think your fooling?
Do you stop and try to give a ride?
So how bout it my fake friend.
Such a beautiful sharlton.
When I was getting beat up in the courts by five guys for protecting a races rights.
Where were you then my fake friend?
When my house burnt before my very own eyes.
Where were you then?
Hiding behind closed doors like so many times before.
Every thing has been standing still.
I knew the time would come when I would be done with it.
You can't help those who lead.
They'll follow no ones' road but there own.
Judge me not cause don't know how much ambition I truly got.
My fake friend you will not make your failings my own.
For each man women child breaks free of such tyranny.
This is to you my fake friend.

Its Only A Paper Moon
I never feel a thing is real
When Im away from you
Out of your embrace
The worlds a temporary parking place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it
Say, its only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldnt be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, its only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldnt be make-believe
If you believed in me
Without your love
Its a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
Its a melody played in a penny arcade
Its a barnum and bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldnt be make-believe
If you believed in me

Fake Plastic Tress
Her green plastic watering can
For her fake chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery for girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
And it wears him out
And it wears him out
And it wears him out
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I cant help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
And it wears me out
It wears me out
And it wears me out
If I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted all the time

In His Room / In His Hands / Verse Chorus Verse
Driven conversations, even I can read
Wouldnt want to fake it, and Im tired of this dream (not sure about this sentence)
Taking medications, in the back of the room
Driven conversations, he died in june.
See the stab wounds in his hands
See him dying in his room
Hes dying in his room
Hes dying in his room
Heading for me, heading this way
He is coming, I dont care
Wouldnt want to fake it, well I dont mind
Giving conversations to a friend of mine
Giving medications, in a lighted room
Wouldnt want to fake it, I know I should
See the stab wounds in his hands
You killed him, I dont care
Keep a promise, you would too
Keep a promise, even you
See the silence in his head
He is coming, I dont care
Were not gonna make it, well I dont mind
Wouldnt want to fake it, but I have this time
Giving conversations, to whom they dont know
Taking medications till my stomachs full.
See a famine in his head
See him coming at their heels
He loves you, give him a chance
I dont love him, I dont care
See him starving, give her hell
It is over, we dont care in his room
