The Best Of Me
Every time you cross my mind
I catch my breath and sigh
And every memory that we shared
Still lives deep inside
Just like a ship without an ocean
Like a sun without a sky
You were the best of me
I swear you were the best of me
And since you have gone theres nothing left in me
My love you were the best of me
When I close my eyes I see you there
Every night you come to me
Your touch so soft and sweet
We leave this world so far behind
But only in my dreams
Somebody stole the stars from my sky
Oh wont you please return to me
You were the best of me
I swear you were the best of me
And since you have gone theres nothing left in me
My love you were the best of me
When I close my eyes I see you there
As I see you there
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?
Somebody stole the stars from my sky
Oh wont you please return to me
You were the best of me
I swear you were the best of me
And since you have gone theres nothing left in me
My love you were the best of me
When I close my eyes I see you there
See you there
I see you there

I Swear
(frank j. myers/gary baker)
I see the questions in your eyes
I know whats weighing on your mind
But you can be sure I know my part
cause Ill stand beside you through the years
Youll only cry those happy tears
And though Ill make mistakes
Ill never break your heart
I swear
By the moon and stars in the sky
Ill be there
I swear
Like the shadow thats by your side
Ill be there
For better or worse
Till death do us part
Ill love you with every beat of my heart
I swear
Ill give you everything I can
Ill build your dreams with these two hands
Well hang some memories on the wall
And when theres silver in your hair
You wont have to ask if I still care
cause as time turns the page
My love wont age at all
I swear
By the moon and stars in the sky
Ill be there
I swear
Like the shadow thats by your side
Ill be there
For better or worse
Till death do us part
Ill love you with every beat of my heart
I swear
I swear
By the moon and stars in the sky
Ill be there
I swear
Like the shadow thats by your side
Ill be there
For better or worse
Till death do us part
Ill love you with every beat of my heart
I swear
I swear

When You Need Someone
How does it feel to be on you own
while the night slips away
you toss and turn like a ship in the storm
have you lost your way
I can see by the look in your eyes
you've been hurt before
hold me close like the very first time
cause that's what love is for
Theres no reason to cry cause ill be there beside you when you need someone
I'd never leave you
I swear that you will be the only one
through the sorrow and pain just call out my name when you need someone
I'd sleep forever i swear that you would never be the only one when you need someone
Sometimes the world can be so cold and you dont know why
you're reaching out but theres no one to hold in times rushing by
I can see by the look in your eyes you just can't let go
hold me close and together we'll find just what love is for
Theres no reason to cry cause ill be there beside you when you need someone
I'd never leave you
I swear that you would be the only one
through the sorrow and pain just call out my name when you need someone
I'd sleep forever I swear that you would never be the lonely one when you need someone
When you need someone its a long long day when you need someone
it's a crawl and change
when you need someone you can call out my name
Theres no reason to cry cause I'll be there beside you when you need someone
I'd never leave you
I swear that you would be the only one
through the sorrow and pain just call out my name when you need someone
I'd sleep forever I swear that you would never be the lonely one when you need someone....

Wth>You
Come on
I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static
And put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
Slow to react
Even though you're so close to me
You're still so distant, and I can't bring you back
It's true, the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes
With you
I hit you and you hit me back
And we fall to the floor
The rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
But when things go wrong, I pretend the past isn't real
Now I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
Slow to react
Even though you're close to me
You're still so distant, and I can't bring you back
It's true, the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes
No
I wont let you control my fate while Im holding the weight of the world on my conscience
No
I wont just sit here and wait while you weighin your options
Youre makin a fool of me
No
You didnt dare to try and say you dont care
And solemnly swear not to follow me there
No
It ain't like me to beg on my knees
Or, please oh baby please
Thats not how Im doin things
No
No Im not upset, no Im not angry
I know love is love and love sometimes, it doesnt pay me
No
I'm never without you, Ill always be with you
You'll never forget me, Im keeping you with me
No
I wont let you take me to the end of my rope
Or keep burning and torching my soul
No
No Im not your puppet
And no, no, no, I wont let you go
No, no matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far we've come
I, I can't wait to see tomorrow
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes

Swear Your Love
Im holding on
Its all that I can do
I cant imagine
Me without you
All alone
I close my eyes
And wake up screaming in the middle of the night
This heart
Dont need it anymore
Swear your love
Say that you remember
Share your love
Hear me calling out your name
I swear my love
Wait a little longer
How will it feel to be left
Standin there all alone
Youre on your own
If you walk through that door
Im kust a man
I cant give anymore
Somewhere deep inside
Theres a memory that keeps you run and hide
You gotta know
You got a place to go
(chorus)
Somewhere deep inside
Theres a memory that keeps you run and hide
You gotta know
You got a place to go

When I Close my Eyes
When I close my eyes,
I can see my country,
Shining in the light, bright.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the trees,
Green against the skyline.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see stars shining cross,
The wide beyond.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the sunset behind your hair,
Halo shining in the air.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I hear the ocean waves,
Crashing on the shore.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the moon glistening,
Through your eyes.
When I close my eyes.

I Can Almost Hear Her Wings
(randy travis/buck moore/eddie lee)
Many nights, Ive stood here by this window
Wondering if Id always be alone
No one here to share this lonely bedroom
But that was long before she came along
Heaven only knows shes not an angel
But I was blessed the day she came to me
And when I close my eyes and lay beside her
Ill swear I can almost hear her wings
I never stopped to watch an evening sunset
Or tired to count the stars up in the sky
I never knew the world held so much beauty
Until I saw it through my babys eyes
Heaven only knows shes not an angel
But I was blessed the day she came to me
And when I close my eyes and lay beside her
Ill swear I can almost hear her wings
And when I close my eyes and lay beside her
Ill swear I can almost hear her wings

On Christmas Day
A young gentleman came riding past
On a snow blue winters day
He asked to drink, by our fire,
And I was pleased to let him stay
He drank there quietly for a while,
Then he turned and said to me
Your eyes are green, like summer grass,
Your lips are red like a fresh cut rose,
Your hair is soft like an irish stream
And your voice is filled with sweet beauty
And the last words I heard him say
Were I shall return, for you, my love, on christmas day
The night will come but I wont sleep,
As I watch the stars that lead him,
I cannot place where his is,
But still my heart goes with him,
Im savin all my sunday clothes
For the day the day that Ill be leavin
Father knows, my sister knows,
And my friends, theyre happy for me
And the priest he says, you should thank god,
For the blessing of such beauty,
And the last words I heard him say
Were I shall return for you, my love, on christmas day
I shall return for you, my love, on christmas day.
And the last words I heard him say
Were the last words I ever heard him say
I shall return for you, my love, on christmas day
I swear, I will return on christmas day,
And yes, I shall return on christmas day
I shall return, for you, on christmas day,
My love I will return on christmas day,
I shall return, my love on christmas day
On christmas day...

I see the questions in your eyes
I know what's weighing on your mind
You can be sure I know my heart
And I'll stand beside you through the years
You'll only cry those happy tears
And though I will make mistakes

And I swear, by the moon and the stars in the sky

You won't have to ask if I still care
'Cause as the time turns the page

Holding Out
Theres nothing outside my window
But the sound of the pouring rain
It oughta be breaking my heart
But I feel no pain
Trying to pick up the station
Thatll carry me through this night
Got a fire to keep me warm
til I got you in my arms
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out
Girl, Ive been dreaming about you
For the better part of my life
At least I can make it without you
One more night
Im not afraid of the thunder
I wont run away from the storm
Let the stars fall down and break
I dont care how long it takes
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out
Theres no other love in the world
I could want any more
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out

I Thought That We Were Still In Love
(liz vidal/tom snow)
Last night while we were talking the way that old friends do
I suddenly got lost in my yesterdays with you
I told you that in my heart you would always be the one
That Id lie waking in the dark, pray that you will come
But I didnt mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
Id forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love
Oh I knew just what Id done when you stood up so fast
And say the friends that wed become cant hold on to the past
You said its been a long long time since love came to an end
If I hadnt learned to draw the line, its useless to pretend
But I didnt mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
Id forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love
I dont think I could take goodbye, that much is still the truth
Wont you forgive me just for one night, its what a friend would do
coz I didnt mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
Id forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love
Still in love
I thought that we were still in love

Above & Beyond
Woman in a million to me
I never loved so much
Is it any wonder Im alive
No one ever knows what makes a
Virtue or a vice
Let it be the spell Im under
(these naked eyes)
Let it be the rain and thunder comes
I go above and beyond the sun
Some love never dies
Story of our lives, ohh,
Swear by the stars above
And late at night I pray to myself
That you and I got everything we need
Id give it all for you and me
Love is the earth and the wind
And the fire and the soul
Love is above and beyond any eye to behold
Love is the key and the cause
And its makin us whole
Made me a little crazy, but i
Soon realize my fate
Every little touch Im paralyzed
No one ever know what makes
An angel in disguise
Let me be the one to taste you
Those naked eyes
No pity if the city ever crumbles down
I go above and beyond the sun
Some love never dies
Story of our lives, ohh,
Swear by the stars above
And late at night I pray to myself
That you and I got everything we need
Id give it all for you and me
Love is the earth and the wind
And the fire and we share
Love is the force and the edge
And its ready for those who dare
Love is above and beyond
And Im taking you there
(and baby, Ill take you there)
I go above and beyond the sun
Some love never dies
Story of our lives, ohh,
Swear by the stars above
And late at night I pray to myself
That you and I got everything we need
Id give it all for you and me
Love is the earth and the wind
And the fire and the soul
Love is the key and the cause
And its makin us whole
Love is the force and the edge
And its yours if you dare
Love is above and beyond
And Im taking you there
(baby, Ill take you there)
I go above and beyond the sun
Some love never dies
Story of our lives, ohh,
Swear by the stars above
And late at night I pray to myself
That you and I got everything we need
Id give it all for you and me

Love Will Never End
When you're down and you're lonely
You know that I will be there
Even though we've been around the world
Away from you
Just close your eyes
Dreams will come true
This love is now and forever
I found a way to your heart
Through the sunshine and the rainy days
This much is true
Remember
We love you
Join hands let go
Set the world on fire
You can believe that
Love will take you higher
I swear you'll never be the same
Cause this kind of love never ends
From all of us to all of you
Just close your eyes and let your
Dreams come true
Join hands let go
Set the world on fire
You can believe that
Love will take you higher
I swear you'll never be the same
Cause this kind of love never ends
Join hands let go
Set the world on fire
You can believe that
Love will take you higher
I swear you'll never be the same
Cause this kind of love never ends

Let Me Wake Up In Your Arms
Another lonely monday morning and I dont want to face the world outside
No control
You got someone there to make you smile
But I cry alone
Givin those secret feeling
You never cooperate , share your love with me
I try in vain to seize your heart
Please dont keep me waiting for that sign
Give me one good reason why you say goodnight and mean goodbye
Please let me
Let me wake up in your arms
Let me go down in your dreams
There is so much we can do before tomorrow and what tomorrow means
I want to get close to you
Every single word I swear is true
On bended knees,i beg you
Let me wake up in your arms
Its gotta be now or never that heaven in your eyes
You touch me hand and I just die
If you got no one there to see you through , Im standing by
I give you my secret feelings
Another lonely monday morning and I dont want to face the truth inside
cause youre not mine
Maybe Ive been reachin far too high
I may be somebody you dont know
But I wont let you forget me , let me
Let me wake up in your arms
Let me go down in your dreams
There is so much we can do before tomorrow and what tomorrow means
Baby I want to get close to you
Every single word I swear is true
On bended knees I beg you
Let me wake up in your arms
I wont let you forget me
Let me , let me , let me
Let me wake up in your arms
Let me go down in your dreams
There is so much we can do before tomorrow and what tomorrow means
Baby I want to get close to you
Every single word I swear is true
On bended knees , I beg you
Let me wake up in your arms
Nobody wants to sleep alone

Its Just Good-bye
(c. weil/j. gruska)
The sweetest songs fade to echoes in the wind
The best of times must end, so a new day can begin
And the dreams we dream that seem so real at night
Must meet the morning light and vanish from our sight
Refrain:
Its just good-bye, remember
Time was never our friend
We walked the road together and we came to the end
Its just good-bye, now I wont tell you not to cry
But I swear that what we had wont die
Cause it isnt over, its just good-bye
I close my eyes and I still can see your face
I know the truth of us, cant be bound by time or space
And the joy we shared, the magic that weve known
Is something that we own, though we may be alone
(repeat refrain)
(instrumental)
Its just good-bye
It doesnt really matter why
I know what we had can never die
Cause Ill always love you
Yes, Ill always love you
So, its just good-bye

Hazard
My mother came to hazard when I was just seven
Even then the folks in town said with predjudiced eyes
That boys not right
Three years ago when I came to know mary
First time that someone looked beyond the rumors and the lies
And saw the man inside
We used to walk down by the river
She loved to watch the sun go down
We used to walk along the river
And dream our way out of this town
No one understood what I felt for mary
No one cared until the night she went out walking alone
And never came home
Man with a badge came knocking next morning
Here was I surrounded by a thousand fingers suddenly
Pointed right at me
I swear I left her by the river
I swear I left her safe and sound
I need to make it to the river
And leave this old nebraska town
I think about my life gone by
And how its done me wrong
Theres no escape for me this time
All of my rescues are gone, long gone
I swear I left her by the river
I swear I left her safe and sound
I need to make it to the river
And leave this old nebraska town

Sweet Dreams
(graham russell)
This is the time when you need a friend
You just need someone near
Im not looking forward to the night I will spend
Thinking of you when youre not here
How many times will I think about the things
Id like to do
Always denied the right to live my life the way I want
I want to share it with you
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
Ill think of your kiss as the days roll by
And Ill write the words you love
And what I cant say in a letter
Will just have to wait till I get home
Ooh theres not much time to tell you half the things I should
Only that Im so glad I fell in love with you
And Id do it again if I could
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
(repeat chorus)
Sleep like a child resting deep
You dont know what you give me I keep
For these moments alone
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams

Close My Eyes
If I could just close my eyes
See just what I wanted to see
It would be much easier to live this life,
Thinking that it never really comes down to me
Sometimes I wanna close my eyes
So I cant see time while its slipping away
Were all walking a very fine line,
Until reality is somehow thrown in our face
Bury it deep and maybe you wont feel the pain
But you cant let it go
Down the line it will be back again
If we could all close our eyes
To all the things we know that are wrong
We could live selfishly protected lives
Not even think about what we could have done
Say its not there and maybe it will go away
But the truth wont
Down the line it will be back again
And rather than exaime it
I think we maybe I should handle it
What good is it to close my eyes
Or tell myself another lie
Gotta get along somehow and sometimes the only way is to close my eyes
Somtimes I have to close my eyes
And let you think you can make a fool out of me
But I set myself up each time
By trusting you so openly
But thats the way I wanna be, thats the way I wanna be

I Swear
I have never seen an angel standing oh so close to me
I have never touched someone and felt so electricity
I am taken over by the endless possibilities
And I'm waiting for the day you say that you belong to me
I swear
No one will ever love you better
I swear
We could be so good together
[Chorus:]
I never wanted anyone the way I want you (baby)
I never met someone who gives me everything you do
I swear
If I'm with you there's no other
I swear
There will never be another
Cause of you there are more reasond to be thatnkful everday
Cause of you I'm reminded of the chances I should take
It't the comfort of your warm embrace that shelters all the rain
And there's nothing I wouldn't give for you to feel the same
I swear
No one will ever love you better
I swear
We could be so good together
