Thanks To You
I want to thank you
Youve been the meaning of life for me
Now I can see the real me
Feelings I couldnt bear
All the things I wouldnt dare
Times I thought no one cared
Then I looked at you
You were there
Sometimes I think this has all been a dream
But I wake up to find that its not what it seems in my mind
Its all mine
Feelings I couldnt bear
All the things I wouldnt dare
Times I thought no one cared
Then I looked at you
You were there
People dont know what the songs are about
They just sing them out like they mean
Something we never thought about

I Wouldnt Know
(marc beeson, robert byrne, mike mcguire)
Everyone I see these days still asks me about you.
I guess they got so used to us together
They assume that everythings ok and then I have to say...
Chorus
I wouldnt know. I havent seen him.
I couldnt say its been awhile.
I havent thought about him lately.
So I wouldnt know.
Im getting tired of people askin.
Why cant they just leave me alone.
I couldnt care, I couldnt say, I wouldnt know.
I dont get out anymore to our old stompin grounds.
cause some old friend is bound to ask me
Why youre not around.
Well I just stay away so I dont have to say...

You Owe It All To Me
Never thought there would be a time
When all youd wanna do is fight
Its made me suffer lonely days
And Im waitin for the evenings sun
To come along and calm me down
Cant you see that on my face
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me
I know it seems to you sometimes
When were alone I tend to hide
Leave my feelings locked behind a door
As I watch the wind cut through the trees
I never wanted you to leave
I only wish Id told you this before
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me
What kinda life am I to lead
With this love youve given me
I thought you were a friend of mine
But everyday youre someone new
And thats the one Ive got to lose
Why do you make it so hard to fight
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me

Love Wouldnt Lie To Me
(written by don schlitz and terry radigan)
Ive played it over in my head
Thought about the words you said
Laid awake in my bed
Its gone, gone, gone
Ive tried to make it make some sense
How it came and how it went
Its still the same damn consequence
Its gone, gone, gone
Love shouldnt lie to me
Love couldnt lie to me
Love wouldnt lie to me
But it did
People come and people go
I put on a real good show
How I do it, I dont know
Its gone, gone, gone
Its all hanging by a thread
I try to see a day ahead
I only see the past instead
Its gone, gone, gone
Love shouldnt lie to me
Love couldnt lie to me
Love wouldnt lie to me
But it did
And though
I know
Ill survive
Love shouldnt lie to me
Love couldnt lie to me
Love wouldnt lie to me
But it did
But it did

Lucille
In a bar in toledo across from the depot
On a barstool she took off her ring
I thought Id get closer
So I walked on over
I sat down and asked her name
When the drink finally hit her
She said Im no quitter
But I finally quit living on dreams
Im hungry for laughter
And here ever after
Im after whatever the other life brings
In the mirror I saw him
I closely watch him
I thought how he looked out of place
He came to the woman
Who sat their beside me
He had a strange look on his face
The big hands are callous
He looked like a mountain
For a minute I thought I was dead
But he started shaking
His big heart was breaking
He turned to the woman and said
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
Four hungry children and a crop in the field
Ive had some bad time
Live thru some sad times
But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal
After he left us, I ordered more whiskey
I thought how he made him look small
From lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room
We walked without talking at all
She was a beauty, but when she came to me
She must have thought I lost my mind
I couldnt hold her, the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after time.
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
Four hungry children and a crop in the field
Ive had some bad time
Live thru some sad times
But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
Four hungry children and a crop in the field
Ive had some bad time
Live thru some sad times
But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal

Cross My Heart & Hope To Die
(words & music by wayne - weisman)
I can explain about last night
Though things didnt look just right
Please believe me there was nothing wrong
I thought about you baby all night long
Cross my heart, I hope to die
Well I wouldnt tell you no lie, mmm
Talk about a piece of rotten luck
You do a friend a favor and you wind up stuck
She couldnt hold a candle to you, no siree
Very hard to handle like a model t
Cross my heart, I hope to die
Well I wouldnt tell you no lie
Please believe me when I say
Wild horses couldnt drag me away
From you cause I dont have to look too hard
To see what Ive got in my own back yard
So please forgive me and forget
Dont say my alloys all wet (? )
I miss those kisses from your honeycomb
This humble bumble bee just wants to fly back home
Cross my heart, I hope to die
Well I wouldnt tell you no lie
I wouldnt tell you no lie
No no no no no no
I wouldnt tell you no lie

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

The Big Country
I see the shapes,
I remember from maps.
I see the shoreline.
I see the whitecaps.
A baseball diamond, nice weather down there.
I see the school and the houses where the kids are.
Places to park by the factries and buildings.
Restaunts and bar for later in the evening.
Then we come to the farmlands, and the undeveloped areas.
And I have learned how these things work together.
I see the parkway that passes through them all.
And I have learned how to look at these things and I say,
(chorus)
I wouldnt live there if you paid me.
I couldnt live like that, no siree!
I couldnt do the things the way those people do.
I couldnt live there if you paid me to.
I guess its healthy, I guess the air is clean.
I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends.
Look at that kitchen and all of that food.
Look at them eat it guess it tastes real good.
They grow it in the farmlands
And they take it to the stores
They put it in the car trunk
And they bring it back home
And I say ...
(chorus)
I say, I wouldnt live there if you paid me.
I couldnt live like that, no siree!
I couldnt do the things the way those people do.
I wouldnt live there if you paid me to.
Im tired of looking out the windows of the airplane
Im tired of travelling, I want to be somewhere.
Its not even worth talking
About those people down there.

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

Your alone
All those words you once said to me
All those things you once did for me
All of it wasent because you liked me
It was because you found someone that liked you
And you knew you could play there feelings just so you wouldnt be alone
You never cared about me
All you ever wanted was someone to be there for you
So you wouldn't be alone
That's all you ever cared about
And that's all you'll ever care about
Not who your with
Just that your not alone
And now I have left
And your useing her
Just so you wont be alone again
When in all reality all you'll ever be is alone

Face Up
Ever since Ive seen your face
This life of mine has gone to waste
I was young and you were old
And I always knew you were cold
At the start you had a heart
But in the end you lost your friend
Can you see your own dark face?
Its dieing in a lonely place
Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
As we get old, we lose our place
Reflecting back the worlds disgrace
I feel so low, I feel so humble
Sometimes in life we take a tumble
Dont let anybody tell you that youre no good
Cause you know they would
Dont let anybody tell you what you should do
Cause its not that way and...
Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
You were me and I was you
This world of ours it felt brand new
You took me a little further...
I heard it all before, Ive heard it all before
I cant hear it anymore
Your hair was long, your eyes was blue
Guess what Im gonna do to you
Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure
And life was just an open door
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought...
Oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
I said oh, oh, how I cannot bear the thought of you
We were young and we were pure...

Only My Heart Talkin
Anybodys dream can fall apart
Anybodys mask can break
Couldnt tell you how I wanted
You
Enough to make you want to stay
I never said the words out loud
I guess I couldnt get em straight
Baby, give me one more chance
Before you walk away
Its only, only, only, only my heart
Talkin
Yeah, its only, only, only, only my
Heart talkin
Sayin things I never thought id
Say
Cant you hear me knocking
Tried to fool you but it wouldnt
Play
Cuz my heart its talkin, its talkin
Baby, its talkin
Talkin to you
Everytime I take it to the edge
Everytime Im so afraid
Dont you know I cry my eyes
Out, babe
Everytime you look away
Oh, I almost dropped a tear
But I caught it just in time
Id say those things you want to
Hear
If youd help me, help me, help
Me try
Its only, only, only, only my heart
Talkin
Yeah, its only, only, only, only my
Heart talkin
Sayin things I never thought id
Say
Cant you hear me knocking
Tried to fool you but it wouldnt
Play
Cuz my heart its talkin, its talkin

Well, I dont want to hide away
Hide away without you, baby
Dont you go and run away

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

Thought I Couldnt Dance
Stand back, and give me room
And listen to that beat
I got the music in my soul
And the rhythm in my feet
When I hear the music,
You wont catch me standing still
And I wont miss a beat
I never have and I never will
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
I can dance to anything
That any band can play
Ive got old-fashioned values
But Im pretty up to date
And I know all the latest hits
On the radio
You dont have to join me
Stand back and watch my show
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
Thought I couldnt dance
Hey, watch me prance
Lets make romance
Thought I couldnt dance
You gotta take a chance
If youre gonna learn to dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
Theres a lot of closet dancers
Just dyin to come out
They dance alone inside their rooms
With the music way up loud
And I know you thought I couldnt dance
But I guess I sure fooled you
It just goes to show you never know
Whos wearing dancin shoes
And you thought I couldnt dance
Im full of surprises
And you thought I couldnt dance
Its too late now
I cant slow down...cant slow down
Oh, feel the heat
From these dancin feet... cant slow down
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
Repeat...

Thank You
I was young (bop)
And didnt have no where to run
I needed to (wake up) and see (and see)
Whats in front of me (na-na-op)
There had to be, a better way
To show Im grateful (hum)
So I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin me so long
You dont know how much you mean to me
Chorus:
Cause even though when times got rough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you (thank you)
When I felt I had enough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you (thank you)
All through my life
I knew that youd be my world
Knowing every where I go
Things you taught me they would show
So many times and changes
Youve seen me through
I sure enough couldnt have survived without you
And so I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin me so long
You dont know how much you mean to me

Get On With Your Life
I went around to your house,
Found you laid up in the bed,
By early afternoon you were so sloppy drunk,
You couldnt even raise up your head.
So get on with your life baby,
Please let me get on with mine.
These days and your ways are so painful,
Youre just wasting all our precious time, ohhh.
Since first I knew your name,
I wasnt sure that you really cared.
Spent most of your time with the other boys,
And its been all down hill from there.
So get on with your life baby,
Please let me get on with mine.
Each day brings a new confusion,
Another way to break this poor heart of mine.
I cant begin to count the times that Ive told ya,
You better change all your wicked ways,
But Im real sure whatever the number,
Ah its the same as the times you laughed in my face.
Wont somebody please wake me from this bad dream,
I remember my grandmama told me,
Things aint always what they seem.
So get on with your life baby,
Please let me get on with mine.
Cause each day brings another confusion,
Its about to break this poor heart of mine,
Ohhhha, gonna lose my only mind, oh baby.
Dont you break this poor heart of mine.

Think
Imagine if I said I sometimes need you
I need you to this day.
Imagine if I said I sometimes hear you call my name.
Imagine if I said I still could love you.
Imagine what youd say.
Imagine if I said I sometimes still can see your face.
Think about all the things we shared.
Think about all the times we cared.
When all of your hopes have come and gone,
Think about me and Ill be there.
Theres something in the air that feels like winter
The kind we used to know.
Yesterday can seem like such a long, long time ago.
Who could ever count the miles between us?
But now I know its true.
Imagine if I said that all my dreams were dreams of you.
Think about all the things we shared.
Think about all the times we cared.
When all of your dreams have come and gone,
Think about me and Ill be there.
Think about images weve drawn.
Think about all those empty songs.
Whenever youre sure that I wont dare,
Think about me and Ill be gone.
It took me a long, long time to learn
That love is a thing you have to earn
I finally realized its true
I just cant make it without you
Think about all the things we shared
Think about all the times we cared
When all of your dreams have come and gone
Think about me and Ill be there
Think about images weve drawn
Think about all those empty songs
Whenver youre sure that I wont dare
Think about me and Ill be gone

Anything Is Possible
Anything is possible
If you put your mind to it
Anything is possible
Just put your mind to it
Anything is possible
If you put your mind to it
Anything....

Verse 1:
Thought I couldnt slow him down
Long enough to look my way
Thought he was out of my league
Wouldnt give me time of day
Thought he was like all the rest
Love her, leave her, no remorse
But I guess that I misjudged
And this thing just ran its course
He taught me
Chorus:
Anything is possible
If you put your mind to it
Anything is possible...
Just put your mind to it
Anything is possible
If you put your mind to it
Anything is possible
Break it down now.....
No matter what it is, its possible
Say, anything is possible
(anything...) no matter what it is, its possible
Say, anything is possible
(anything...) no matter what it is, its possible
Say, anything is possible
(anything...) no matter what it is, its possible
Say, anything is possible
Verse 2:
Much to my surprise I felt
A warm, not cold vibe
When he looked in my eyes
(oh yeah, its possible)
His bad boy front not charm
Was his disguise
Oh whoa whoa
(let me tell ya)
He read so much into me
Listened so attentively
He liked me, I rest my case
Wasnt just a pretty face
Bridge:
If you set your mind
You can do anything you want
Not every guy is a bad guy
Dont stereotype
cause this guy, he proved me wrong
(anything is possible...)
He taught me:
Anything is possible
Just put your mind to it
If you put your mind
You know you can do anything,
Anything
Anything is possible
Anything is possible
Anything is possible
Just put your mind to it
Anything is possible
If you put your mind to it

Good Morning Judge
Well good morning judge, how are you today
Im in trouble, please put me away
A pretty thing took a shine to me
I couldnt stop her so I let it be
I couldnt stop her so I let it be
I couldnt stop her so I let it be
I couldnt stop her so I let it be
He didnt do it, he wasnt there
He didnt want it, he wouldnt dare
Well good morning judge, yes Im back again
Im in trouble, so its back to the pen
I found a car but I couldnt pay
I fell in love and I drove it away
I fell in love and I drove it away
I fell in love and I drove it away
I fell in love and I drove it away
He didnt do it, he wasnt there
He didnt want it, he wouldnt dare
I didnt do it, I wasnt there
I didnt want it, I wouldnt dare
Alcatraz is like a home sweet home
Im so wanted and Im never alone
San quentin is the place to be
Im so happy I dont wanna be free
So happy I dont wanna be free
So happy I dont wanna be free
So happy I dont wanna be free

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

Byblos
I saw her once before; she didnt turn me on.
One night she stopped to talk to pass the time.
And then I saw her eyes; her softly smiling glow,
We sat and talked all night at byblos.
She talked of feelings that I knew were true.
She painted me a picture using every shade of blue
It was light with laughter, at times it made me cry,
And now Ill never know just why I didnt ever try to hold her;
To squeeze her; to kiss her all night long, I never tried to please her.
Then, soon she had to go;
I sat there all alone
And thought of things she said
The whole day through.
And then I realized,
I never took the time
To find out where she lived
Or where to call.
I thought that I would see her
The next night,
Anticipating how Id set myself right.
Then, I went back to byblos;
I sat there and waited,
Feeling just a little nervous
And a little frustrated.
Then, soon, in she came, looking just the same
Oo, I could hardly wait to take her far from the game.
Then a person came in to the club
That I had to speak to
I explained the situation to her
And I thought she understood
But I guess she thought I was jiving her around
Cause when I looked for her, this is what I found
She was rapping with a real good friend of mine,
He was happening, I guess it was his time.
I really couldnt blame him, cause he was sad and lonely too.
But just talking to her did me so much good, I knew shed do him good too.
Then I went home and I got it on,
Sat down to write these words when I was finally alone.
And then, about halfway through I wondered if someone knew
Where she was, so I could give her a call,
And I found out that she was right down the hall,
Not too far away,
But thats ok, Ill just wait for the day when I can see her again
And spend some time.
