If You Only Knew
(jane mariash, dianna rae)
So here you are again
Standing at my door
You know Id understand
Well thats what friends are for
Whats he done this time
What did he say
To make you so darn mad
That youre running away
Now you say you want to be like me
Independent and free
Chorus:
But if you only knew
What a single girl goes through
The long working days and the lonley nights
The empty I love yous
Oh if you only knew what its like to be alone
Youd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
My life looks good to you
Im always in control
No one to answer to
But no one there to hold
You see in my eyes you are the lucky one
With loving arms that you can lean upon
Id give anything I could to say
What youre throwing away
Cause (repeat chorus)
I know its hard to face that love aint perfect everyday
But I know a hundred girls who would gladly take your place
So (repeat chorus)
Youd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
If you only knew

Too Gone Too Long
Did I hear you say that
You want another chance
You need another try
Youre ready to reclaim your prize
So you want my love back
Whyd you let it slip away
Whyd you ever let me go
Your change of heart has come too late
Well the door is locked you cant get in
The game has changed youve been
Chorus:
Too gone, too long baby
To ever get back again
In my heart
Too gone, too long baby
Youre too many tears too late
To ever get back to get back
In my arms
Been gone too gone too long
Verse 2:
Didnt you hear me say that
Youd be a fool to leave
Youd regret the road you chose
Youd come running right back to me
You had such a good love sugar
You never found in no one else
But what I knew all the time
You had to find out for yourself
But now youll never know
That love again
Youre on your own
(chorus) bridge:
Did you really think Id take you back
Let you back in my life
Oh baby just like that
Someone new is loving me
Loving you is what used to be
Baby youre too late to win my heart again

Nothin You Can Do About It
Have you heard the news?
Im doing what I said I would
So now you say
Boy, I always knew you could
My wildest dreams
Murdered by reality
I gave you all I could give to you
But now Im taking back what belongs to me
I read you like a drugstore book
Howd I ever think you were cool
You got no bait left on your hook
Youre no friend and buddy, Im no fool
Chorus:
Aint nothin you can do about it
Aint nothin you can say
Aint nothin you can do about it
No ones gonna stand in my way
Ive done my time
Ive given up my pound of flesh
So why cant the man seem to understand
That Ive already passed the test
You did your best to keep me down
Tried to make my spirit give in
But Im here to make a big, big sound
Its your turn to lose and its my turn to win
Repeat chorus
I know you can never go back
Once you turn and walk out that door
Got no time for worries like that
Im not a kid anymore
You did your best to keep me down
Tried to make my spirit give in
But Im here to make a big, big sound
Its your turn to lose and my turn to win

When Youre Alone
Times were tough love was not enough
So you said sorry johnny Im gone gone gone
You said my act was funny
But we both knew what was missing honey
So you let out on your own
Now that pretty form that youve got baby
Will make sure you get along
But youre gonna find our someday honey
When youre alone youre alone
When youre alone youre alone
When youre alone youre alone
When youre alone you aint nothing but alone
Now I was young and pretty on the mean streets of the city
And I fought to makeem my home
With just the shirt on my back I left and swore Id never look back
And man I was gone gone gone
But theres things thatll knock you down you dont even see coming
And send you crawling like a baby back home
Youre gonna find out that day sugar
When youre alone...
I knew some day your runnin would be through
And youd think back on me and you
And your love would be strong
Youd forget all the bad and think only of all the laughs that we had
And youd wanna come home
Now it aint hard feelings or nothin sugar
That aint whats got me singing this song
Its just nobody knows baby where love goes
But when it goes its gone gone
When youre alone...

Love Will Lead You Back

Saying goodbye is never an easy thing
But you never said, that youd stay forever

To stop you now from leaving
Cause in my heart I know

Which One Of Them
The girl at the bar she bought me a beer
And shed like to know if Im new around here
And the gal that I danced with says shes all alone
Her friends have all left and she needs a ride home
Oh and there have been others who gave me the eye
But if they only knew they were wasting their time
Cause theres only one lover I can give my heart to
But you didnt want it and you broke it in two
(chorus)
(so tell me) which one of them will be you tonight
Oh which one will hold me in your arms so tight
Ive forgotten whats wrong, given up on whats right
(tell me) which on of them will be you tonight
So Ill just smile and pretend and shell never know
Who shes up against when shes holdin me close
Youre all that I want, girl, youre all that I need
And when I close my eyes, honey youre all I see

Five Hundred Miles Away From Home
(bobby bare, charlie williams, hedy west)
Tear drops fell on mamas note
When I read the things she wrote
She said, we miss you girl
We love you come on home
Well I didnt have to pack
I had it all right on my back
Now Im five hundred miles away from home
Chorus:
Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, Im five hundred miles away from home
Its hard to tell the state Im in
Where Im going, where Ive been
But theres a dream Ive been following so long
If mama knew the things Ive done
Shed forgive them everyone
But Im still five hundred miles away from home
Repeat chorus
Cant remember when I ate its just thumb and walk and wait
And Im still five hundred miles away from home
If my luck had been just right Id be with them all tonight
But Im still five hundred miles away from home

Lord, Im still five hundred miles away from home

Your Eyes
Youre not in control

So now that its on

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

What Does It Take
All I do is think about you
I never did let go of what we were
Cant pretend Ill live without you
As I learn to live alone
Why cant I be a man about it
Ive tried and tried to hide you from my heart
If I could just forget about us
If I knew just where to start
Youre still my destiny
(chorus)
What does it take
To win you back
To hold in these arms once more
What can I say
To make you understand
Youre still all Im waiting for
At times I feel its best without you
And times I still believe in you so much
After what Ive been through without you
Youd think that Id move on
But youre still my destiny
(chorus)
What does it take
cause we cant go back
Cant be like it was before
What does it take
To win you back
To hold in these arms
What does it take
What will it take now
Youre still my destiny

Behind The Mask
All along I had to talk
About it
Like a two edged sword,
He touched you and it stabs (me)
Chorus:
All along I knew you were
A phony girl
You sit behind the mask
And you control your world
Yesterday he held you in his arms
But when Im holdin you
Feel its bitter charms
I cant judge what youre doin to me
You camouflage the truth,
Indulge your fantasy

Who do you love?
Is it me?

Was I invited to your masquerade?
Well, the partys over so
Now take off the face
You say you love, but its hard to see
cause when youre in his arms
Youre throwing rocks at me

There is nothing in your eyes

The truth in you I have
Long to trace

Better Watch Your Back
Oh, living the life of a madmans wife, has got to be unreal
cause shes got to hold on to ground control
While jack does what he feels
Well he stays away, and then he comes home
And he never knows where hes been
Jack blasts downtown then hes over the line,
And then hes a kid again
Jack said its hard living in a dream, and its hard
Always giving in to me
*his wife saw jack in a crowd of boys and he was talking against
The man
She saw the guys getting dangerous eyes, and she knew it
Was never or then
So she ran on back an d said to jack jack, jack I wouldnt do that,
If youre gonna continue to give your opinion, youd better
Watch your back
Oh, jack said youd better watch your back
Said youd better watch your back
Said youd better watch your back
*said youd better watch your back, oh, jack
Had knock down dream, then he saw the man.
And thought hed save the day
Jack gave roar, made for the door, hed go to church and pray
Say jackie, religion and you, aint mixed well in the past
Remember when you smashed your fist on the eucharist,
Threw up in high mass?
Its hard always giving in to me

Oh, jack youd better watch your back, oh, jack, oh jack,
Oh, jack........

Lyrics by dave taggart
Verse 1
Male: I picked a rose among these ancient walls
A garden made for love
But nothing grows at all
I heard your laughter and I almost knew
That wed share our life together
Female: and still surrounded by this fortress strong
Kept from your loving arms too long
Chorus
Both: if we just close our eyes and begin a new day
We could turn back the time to a world far away
Where our hearts beat as one through the passing of ages
Male: oh, we could turn back time start a brand new day
Female: if we just close our eyes
Verse 2
Male: I saw you walking with the sacred fire
A girl her eyes so wild with anger and confusion
The only spark of life to grace this land
Both: we shared this hope eternal (male whisper: eternal)
Female: and now it seems as though youve found your place
(male: found your place)
Lost my loving embrace
Chorus
Bridge
Male: Ill give more than forever
Female: our love will carry us away
Both: together well fly if we just close our eyes

The One That Really Matters
I know your mind like the back of my hand,
A race that I ran before,
Are you so blind that youd turn your back
On love and slam the door,
If youre searching for something more,
Have a good time,
But if youd follow your heart,
Youre gonna find that im...
*the one, the one,
The one that really matters,
The one that really cares,
The one, when your whole world is shattered,
Snap your fingers and Ill be there.*
Theres someone new,
Hes your brand new toy,
You could break that poor boy in two,
If thats your style,
I should have known from the start,
This heart wants no part of you,
But if youre still the same girl I knew,
All in good time,
Youre gonna follow your heart,
And youre gonna find Im still...

I Never Knew It
(daryl simmons)
Now you tell me since youve been away
There was something youve been dying to say
Yes, I thought you had eyes for me
But I never was quite sure
Might funny that you never called
Aint it funny now that youre gone
That you say youre in love with me
Now thats hard for me to believe
Chorus:
Cause I never knew it baby, never knew it baby
I never knew it baby, never knew it baby
That you loved me so
Now I think about you every night
Said you wanted for us to have fun
Whats the matter, cat got your tongue
Its not easy to read your mind
So you bet not take too long
Kind of silly just holding the phone
Aint it silly that Im all alone
When you should be here holding me
Or making good love to me baby, oh so sweet
Chorus
I knew somebody would love me
And satisfy this heart of mine
You never should keep it from me
Youve got to realize a girl would cry and lose her mind

This Time
Ahh It still feels good
You were always there to bring me breakfast in bed
And when I stayed out late you had some powder for my head
Ive been a bad man
But you never paid no mind
CHORUS
Weve had some long nights
But were alright this time
I believe in something I just dont know what it is
And every time I climb I wind up back on the skids
You always stood by me
When the natives start to whine
REPEAT CHORUS (2x)
Youre like an angel with a 12 gauge (Lock and load)
Youre like a wheelman on a get-away (Hit the road)
And together we ride
You aint Bonnie I aint Clyde
But we made out of town just the same
I could take a taxi but its better when you drive
You always come between me and the mess outside
I could buy you a ring
But youd rather have the cash
Ha ha and that dont even rhyme
REPEAT CHORUS
And together we ride
You aint Bonnie I aint Clyde
But we made it out of town just the same

Go Home
Her parents said, girl dont leave home
But her heart kept cheering her on
She had a real good man, steady job
But the two of them just werent in her heart
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
Long days, short nights when youre on the road
For a pretty girl its a heavy load
And even so wholl pay your fare
She said Ill make it on a wing and a prayer
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
She said Ive on right to tell her how life should be
Especially when the only one she ever cared about in life was me
But she agreed to go along with my final word
As fate would have life come around
My world started tumbling down
I lost my family, my friends and job
And set free the only one who stuck with me from the start
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
She said Ive on right to tell her how life should be
Especially when the only one she ever cared about in life was me
But she agreed to go along with my final word, my final word
As fate would have life come around
My world started tumbling down
I lost my family, my friends and job
And set free the only one who stuck with me from the start
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
Go home baby, you better go home right now
Go home, little girl you better go home
