If It Wasnt For Your Love
Would I be standing here
After all these years
Among the stars above
Maybe not, if it wasnt for your love
Smiling faces all around
Like when a king that has just been crowned
A battle has been won
That Id have lost
If it wasnt for you love
A fairy tale unfolds
More true than stories Ive been told
At last my chance to shine
And all in perfect time
The life I once dreamed of
Whod have thought
If it wasnt for your love
And oh the wonderful surprise
To have a light so bright it blinds my eyes
And finally I see, how it feels to live a dream
But would I have touched the sky
Ever flown so high
No not i, if it wasnt for your love

Just Wasnt Love
Blame it on the blues you sing
Blame it on anything and everything
Blame it on a lack of faith or a twist of fate
til it makes you feel okay
Then come to terms with the fact
It was over because it was
Chorus:
It wasnt the time
It wasnt the place
Or my frame of mind, or the look on your face
It wasnt the road we were on
Or the days, though there were not enough
Sad to say
It just wasnt love
Oh, I thought that you were the one
Saw forever
It was here and it was gone
I needed a reason clear things dont disappear
And thats how I found the truth
Its just how the story goes
Weve been over it a hundred times
Chorus
Some things need no explanation
No chance for will thats free (oh no, no)
Some things kill every reason we have
To ever believe things are what they seem
It wasnt the road we were on
Or the days, though there were not enough
Oh, sad to say
Chorus
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
It just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
Just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
It just wasnt love

It Wasnt Me
It wasnt me who shamed you
Its not fair to say that
You wanted to work I gave you a chance at that
It wasnt me who hurt you
Thats more credit that Im worth
Dont threaten me with the things youll do to you
It wasnt me who shamed you
It wasnt me who brought you down
You did it to yourself without any help from me
It wasnt me who hurt you
I showed you possibilities
The problems you had were there before you met me
I didnt say this had to be
You cant blame these things on me
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
I know shes dead, it wasnt me
It wasnt me who changed you
You did it to yourself
Im not an excuse for the hole you dropped in
Im not simple minded
But Im not father to you at all
Death exists but you do things to yourself
I never said give up control
I never said stick a needle in your arm and die
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
I know hes dead but it wasnt me
It wasnt me who shamed you
Who covered you with mud
You did it to yourself without any help from me
You act as I couldve told you
Or stopped you like some god
But people never listen and you know that thats a fact
I never said slit your wrists and die
I never said throw your life away
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
Youre killing yourself, you cant blame me

I Wasnt Fooling Around
I wasnt fooling around
Everythings true that I said
So take me seriously
Darling, please just take me
I wasnt fooling around
Chorus:
Laugh if you want to
But I wasnt joking
About this love thats so real
Is it surprising
Im romanticizing
About the way I feel
I wasnt playing around
Im not a kid anymore
Im not the clown
Thats just here to amuse you
I wasnt fooling around
Chorus
I wasnt fooling around
It wasnt like that at all
So take me seriously
Darling, please just take me
I wasnt fooling around
I wasnt fooling around

It Wasnt Very Long Ago
It wasnt very long ago.
I met you,i saw you.
It wasnt very long ago.
You whispered I love you
Look at us now.
Crying our hearts out through the night.
Trying to remember what love was like, although...
It wasnt very long ago.
I thrilled when I kissed you.
It wasnt very long ago.
I cried when I missed you
Look at us now.
Crying at hearts out through the night.
Trying to remember what love was like
Although it wasnt very long ago.
Look look my eyes arent shining with love
And they wont.
Look Im not crying cause I need you,
Im crying cause I dont, oh
It wasnt very long ago.
I held you, so closely.
It wasnt very long ago.
I dreamed of,you mostly
Look us now.
Crying at hearts out through the night.
Trying to remember what love was like.
Although it wasnt very long ago.
It wasnt very long ago.
It wasnt very long ago.
Not so very long ago..

If It Wasnt For The Nights
I got appointments, work I have to do
Keeping me so busy all the day through
Theyre the things that keep me from thinking of you
(ohhh) baby, I miss you so, I know Im never gonna make it
Oh, Im so restless, I dont care what I say
And I lose my temper ten times a day
Still its even worse when the nights on its way
Its bad, oh, so bad
Somehow Id be doing alright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
Id have courage left to fight if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Somehow Id be doing alright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
No one to turn to, you know how it is
I was not prepared for something like this
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
(ohhh) baby, I feel so bad, I know Im never gonna make it
I got my business to help me through the day
People I must write to, bills I must pay
But everythings so different when nights on its way
Its bad, oh, so bad
Somehow Id be doing alright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
Id have courage left to fight if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Guess my future would look bright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Guess my future would look bright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Guess my future would look bright if it wasnt for the nights

If I Wasnt Shy
If I wasnt shy
If I wasnt shy
Id burn all the uniforms
Id burn all the ask me buttons
Id burn all the intercoms
Id burn all the time clock cards
If I wasnt shy
If I wasnt shy
Id steal somebodys cadillac
Id steal anything I lack
Id steal all the microphones
From all the masters of ceremony
If I wasnt shy
If I wasnt shy
Id ask you, if you dont mind,
To kiss you a hundred times
If I wasnt shy
If I wasnt shy

That Wasnt Me
(gary harrison/tim mensy)
I know she mustve cut you deep
Shes gone but you wont let her leave
I know your heart has not healed yet
But sometimes I think that you forget
That wasnt me
That wasnt me
Im not the one
Who made love bring you to your knees
You cant love if you cant trust
Her memorys hurt you long enough
Let your heart see
That wasnt me
I can no longer pay the price
For damage done by her careless lies
We cant move on til you let go
I always thought by now youd know
That wasnt me
That wasnt me
Im not the one
Who made love bring you to your knees
You cant love if you cant trust
Her memorys hurt you long enough
Let your heart see
That wasnt me
You cant love if you cant trust
Her memorys hurt you long enough
Let your heart see
That wasnt me

It Was You
(trey bruce/craig wiseman)
Some people say fallin' in love is purely chance
The random blend of time and place, circumstance
That couldnt be farther from the truth
cause with you
It wasnt the stars in the sky
That got to me that night
Or the music that we were dancing to
It wasnt the moon up above
That had me falling in love
It was more than all those things alone could do
It was you
I do believe were all a part of some greater plan
That only angels in our hearts can understand
Somehow I know Id found my place
When I saw your face
It wasnt the stars in the sky
That got to me that night
Or the music that we were dancing to
It wasnt the moon up above
That had me falling in love
It was more than all those things alone could do
It was you

Leave Me To Bleed
It wasnt me that saw you
Standing by the neon lit door
It wasnt me that saw you
Clinging to somebody I deplore
Oh baby dont show your face
Dont move in my direction
Leave me to bleed
Love can be fatal
It wasnt me that heard you
Whisper a name Id never heard before
It wasnt me that heard you
Steal out to meet behind a secret door
I been suspecting
Done my own detecting
Leave me to bleed
Love can be fatal
It wasnt me that saw you
Pick up a letter fallen on the floor
It wasnt me that heard you
Say you couldnt love me anymore
Theres no mistaking
I guess Ive just been waiting
Leave me to bleed
Love can be fatal
I guess Ill just be waiting

Everlasting Love
He wasnt looking for a pretty face
She wasnt searching for the latest style
He didnt want someone who walked straight off the tv
She needed someone with an interior smile
She wasnt looking for a cuddle in the back seat
He wasnt looking for a five minute thrill
She wasnt thinking of tomorrow or of next week
This vacancy he meant to permanently fill
Chorus
I need an everlasting love
I need a friend and a lover divine
An everlasting precious love
Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time
Back in the world of disposable emotion
In the climate of temporary dreams
He wasnt looking for a notch on his bedpost
A love to push, pull and burst at the seams
Is this love worth waiting for
Something special, something pure
Is this love worth waiting for
Bitterness will die for sure
Something special, something pure
Is this love worth waiting for

To Let You Win
(morten harket / hevard rem)
You know I always had the strength to fight
But I got tired of the wars at night
Thinking they would end if I gave in
But I wasnt strong enough
..to let you win
..to let you win
..let you win
I knew the fight but I didnt know the cost
And how to stop the wheels when theyre in spin
I thought you couldnt love a man whod lost
No, I wasnt strong enough
..to let you win
..let you win
It used to scare me to wake up wondering
If Id forgotten what I was fighting for
You know that you said that you were weak and I was strong
Well, I wasnt strong enough
..to let you win
..to let you win
..let you win
..to let you win
You know I always had the strength to fight
But I got tired of the wars at night
Thinking they would end if I gave in
But I wasnt strong enough
..to let you win
..to let you win

After that night
He said things would never change
that things would always be the same
he told me he loved me
he swore all this on our friendship
but after that night we had no friendship nor any love
after that night he said goodbye
after that night he said it never mattered
after that night he ignored me
after that night he left for good
it wasnt my fault
it wasnt me who made all the mistakes
it wasnt me who turned and walked away from him
cause i still love him, but he made the choice
to leave me standing all alone that night
he left me standing there full of saddness and shame
he left me believing all his lies
he left me to love him after thaat night
nothing was ever the same nor will it ever be
because after that night not a bit of that night could make it right
i lost my best friend and my first love after that night

On My Own
So many times
Said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew
Id be lying here beside you
On my own
On my own
On my own
So many promises
Never should be spoken
Now I know what loving you cost
Now were up to talking divorce
And we werent even married
On my own
Once again
One more time
By myself
No one said it was easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believed in love
Now here I stand
I wonder why Im on my own
Why did it end this way (on my own)
This wasnt how it was supposed to be (on my own)
I wish that we could do it all again
So many times
I know I could have told you
Losin you, it cuts like a knife
You walked out and there went my life
I dont want to live without you
On my own
Once again
This wasnt how it was supposed to be (on my own)
I wish that we could do it all again (on my own)
I never dreamed Id spend one night alone
By myself
Ive got to find out what was mine again (on my own)
My heart is saying that its time again (on my own)
And I think that Im as sure as you

Out On The Road
(hicks / lynch)
I wasnt there (I wasnt there)
When I was needed (I wasnt there)
I was out on the road
Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasnt there)
I should have been right by her side
Like a good man ought to be
But this rocknroll music sure gotta hold on me
I wasnt there (I wasnt there)
When my shack was burning (I wasnt there)
I was out on the road playing with my rocknroll band (I wasnt there)
While someone else put out the fire
I was wailing my guitar
Somehow this rocknroll music sure got a hold on me
Somewhere I know, I sold my soul
Sold it to the devil or the king of rocknroll
Once I found out, what the music was all about
Picked up my baggage
And I joined in a big rock show
I knew that I had to go
I wasnt there (I wasnt there)
There for my wedding (I wasnt there)
I was back on the road
Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasnt there)
But when I came off stage that night
I found her waiting patiently, good girl
She knows that rocknroll music sure got a hold
Rocknroll music sure got a hold
She knows that rocknroll music sure got a hold on me

I Wasnt Ready
Last night I was in heaven today Im still on a cloud in his arms I was in
Heaven and I didnt know what it was all about when he walked out the hurt
Walked in I guess I wasnt ready for love
Last night I thought I was gain today I feel so ashamed if he only knew I need
Him again he would come and ease my pain when he walked out the hurt walked in
I guess I wasnt ready for love
He said that he loved me he told me hed protect me he told me he needed me but
I was to blind to see yeah I was to blind to see
Last night I was in heaven but it was hell when he walked out the hurt walked
In I guess that I wasnt ready for love

I Dont Want A Lover
I dont want a lover
I just need a friend
I dont want a lover
I just need a friend
You can just leave me
To face life on my own
I know you dont love me no more
I knew this day it would come
Even when it cuts so deep
Its true I still want you
But the harder I try
The more I seem to lose
I dont want a lover
I just need a friend
Ive had time to recover
Now that I know it wasnt love
Its always a different story
When its me whos in the wrong
But you cant have it all
Cause Im the one whos strong
Ive already been burnt before
Once but never again
I know the time will come
Thats when youll need me then
I dont want a lover
I just need a friend
Ive had time to recover
Now that I know it wasnt love
I dont want a lover
I just need a prayer
I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasnt love
You dont even care
About what Im saying
You dont even think
What youre doing
All you see is what you want it to be
But in there theres just no room for me
I dont want a lover
I just need a friend
Ive had time to recover
Now that I know it wasnt love

Wasnt It Good
Wasnt it good
The way that I touched you late last night
Wasnt it good again in the mornings early light
Did you know when you closed that bedroom door
I betcha didnt know exactly what I had in store
Wasnt it good when you felt it coming through you
Wasnt it good that I knew just how to do you
Did you know you never had it like this before
I betcha didnt know youd be coming around
Back for more, more, more
Lets have a party, loves pouring out of my soul
Im your party hearty and let the future take control
Just remember my darling when theres time to spare
Youll be thinking about me, and our hot affair
Saying wasnt it good, wasnt it good so good
Did you know you never had it like this before
And I betcha didnt know youd be coming around
Back for more, more, more
Lets have a party, loves pouring out of my soul
Im your party hearty and let the future take control
Lets have a party well make the best of it while we can
God you wont be sorry,
Cause Im committed to pleasing my man, my man
Just remember my darling when theres time to spare
Ill be thinking about you, and our hot affair
Saying wasnt it good, wasnt it good so good
Do you love her, can you dig it, did I do it to you baby so good
Did you want it, can you dig it, do you love it baby, baby so good
Was it was it really good, you love it didnt you lover

(carole bayer sager, burt bacharach)
So many times I said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Somethin in my heart always knew
Id be lying there beside him
On my own, on my own, on my own
So many promises never should be spoken
Now you know what loving him costs
Now youre even talking divorce
And you werent even married

No one said it would be easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believe in love now here I stand
You wonder why
Im on my own
Why did it end this way
On my own
This wasnt how it was supposed to be
On my own
I wish that we could do it all again
So many times I know I could have told you
That losing him would cut like a knife
He walked out and there went your life
I dont want to live without him
On my own
This wasnt how it was supposed to end
On my own
I wish that we could do it all again
On my own
I never dreamed Id spend one night alone by myself
On my own
Youve got to find out where you belong again
On my own
Youve got to learn how to be strong again
On my own
I never dreamed Id spend one night alone by myself
Youve got to find out where you belong again
Your heart is saying that its time again
And I know that youre gonna shine again

Lies and Pain
i used to think that i wasnt good enough,
i used to think that i wasnt smart enough,
i used to think that i wasnt good enough
for you to love me. i used to stay up and think of you,
crying myself to sleep after fighting with you.
i wish sometimes that i never knew you,
then maybe my life wouldnt be so complicated.
i know now that i was strong enough
because i didnt take your shit.
i know now that i was smart enough
because i let you go, and i know
now that i'm good enough
because i have a REAL man who tells me so!
