(S. Alan Taylor, Lisa Palas)

You know it seems like I've loved you forever
Who could be closer than you and I 
People even say we're so much alike
But they don't know I've

Chorus:
Been lovin' you so long that I know every move you make
And every breath you take
What I feel is so strong 
Sometimes I don't know where I end and where you begin
And you make me so happy feelin' like this  
There's so much ahead that I don't wanna miss
Oh I wanna keep it so good
So, so, so long

So good, so real, and so right
oh I wanna keep it so good
so so so long

yeah yeah yeah
 
Oh darlin' don't think for a minute
Time could ever steal the thrill away
You've still got the power to be my man 
You know you can 

Repeat Chorus

Oh I wanna keep it so good 
So so so long

So good
So fine 
So real 
So right

So, so, so long
So, so, so long

(D. Loggins, L. Silver, D. Schlitz)

I would have waited forever
If I'd known that you'd be here
And we could have shared our lives together 
And held each other close all through the years

But I met someone before you
And my heart just couldn't wait
So no matter how much I adore you
I've got to stand behind the promise that I made

Chorus:
Where were you 
When I could have loved you
Where were you 
When I gave my heart away
All my life
Baby I've been dreamin' of you 
But you came along
One promise too late
You came along 
One promise too late

I won't say 
That I'm sorry that I met you 
I can't have you 
But I never will forget you 

Repeat Chorus Two Times

(Troy Seals, Eddie Setser)

Well you say you're from the city
California is your home 
Hey I'm a country girl
Over Oklahoma way 
Oh there's miles and miles between us
But that don't mean a thing
When those guitars start to play 

Oh sweet sounds of freedom
Ringing through the air
Sending out a message to us all  
We don't have a curtain
Made of iron or stone
We are not divided by a wall

Chorus:
So come on tell me 
Hey, hey, hey 
From L.A. to Broadway
Hey, hey, hey
Let the music lift you up 
Hey, hey, hey, 
Whoa everybody's singin' 
Hey, hey, hey,
Let the music lift you up 

When you're feelin' low 
Hit that radio 
Let the music lift you 
Let the music lift you 
Up, way up, way up 

There are books that tell us
What makes this whole world turn 
And how heaven holds the star wars
But there's no explanation 
Lord it's still a mystery
How a song can touch your heart 

Repeat Chorus

Let the music lift you 
Let the music lift you 
Up, way up, way up

(P. McManus, B. DiPiero, G. House)

Well I married to the good life
I said I'd be a good wife
When I put on this ring
I drive a new Mercedes 
I play tennis with the ladies
I buy all the finer things
But all that don't mean nothin' 
When ya can't get a good night's lovin'

Chorus:
Little rock 
Think I'm gonna have to slip you off
Take a chance tonight and untie the knot 
There's more to life than what I've got
Little rock
You know this heart of mine just can't be bought
I'm gonna find someone who really cares a lot
When I slip off this little rock 

Well I wonder if he'll miss me 
He doesn't even kiss me 
When he comes home at night
He never calls me honey
But he sure loves his money
And I'm the one who pays the price
But when he finds this ring he'll see
He keeps everything but me

Repeat Chorus Two Times

(S. Bogard, R. Giles, S. Stephen)

You sure know what you're doin'
Holdin' me this way
And I'll go where you lead me
Anywhere you say
You've got me where you want me
So darlin' please be kind
Before you take it all
And I make that final fall 
You've got to keep in mind

Chorus:
That I'm a new fool 
At an old game
A kid outta school 
Tryin' to find my way 
But I don't know the rules
Teach me how to play 
I'm just a new fool 
At an old game

Maybe I'm a dreamer
Maybe I'm naive
But when you say you love me
I start to believe
That gold can turn to diamonds
And this night will never end
But if it isn't so 
And I cry when you go 

Repeat Chorus

(Kendal Franceschi, Quentin Powers)

Daddy used to tell me 
If I ran too fast
I'd fall and hurt myself
But the ice cream man would ring his bell 
And I'd get there before anyone else
I'd see a puppy in the window 
An I'd run and press my face against the pane
And daddy'd say slow down girl
After all these years I guess nothing has changed

Chorus:
That little girl I knew
Ran after you 
But she fell this time
And broke her heart in two 
Ain't that just like a little girl 
I knew

Back home there stands an old house
With a picket fence 
Beneath a big ol' tree
I can almost see the backyard
And the little girl with freckles 
That was me

There were dreams of toys and storybooks
And lord it seemed I wanted them so bad
Well twenty years have come and gone
And I'm still chasin' things that I can't have

Repeat Chorus

Guess I'm still that little girl
Daddy I still haven't learned to slow down yet

(Gary Nicholson, Wendy Waldman)

I can't say I didn't know what I was doin'
I can't pretend things just got outta hand
I shoulda kept my distance
While I was still strong
But I got caught up in the feelin' 
Carried along and it's 
Too late baby
I can't stop now

Well I walked right in with my eyes wide open (I did)
And I was blind when you told me 
You'd be mine just as soon as you were free
I should have kept my distance
While I was still strong
But I got caught up in the feelin' 
Carried along and it's
Too late baby
I can't stop now

Can't stop now
Crazy heart's runnin' outta control
Can't stop now
And I'll be falling apart somewhere down the road
I might be headed for a breakdown
But I can't stop now

(B. Belle, L. Prima, A. Leonard, S. Rhodes)

I want a Sunday kind of love
A love to last past Saturday night 
And I'd like to know it's more than love at first sight
I want a Sunday kind of love oh yeah

I want a love that's on the square
Can't seem to find somebody someone to care
And I'm on a lonely road that leads to nowhere 
I need a Sunday kind of love

Chorus:
I do all my Sunday dreaming
And all my Sunday scheming
Every minute, every hour, every day
And I'm hopin' to discover
A certain kind of lover
Who will show me the way
And my arms need someone to enfold 
To help keep me warm 
When Mondays, and Tuesdays grow cold
And I need a love for all my life
To have and to hold
I need a Sunday kind of love

Repeat Chorus

I don't want a Monday or a Tuesday
A Wednesday or a Thursday
Friday or Saturday
I don't want nothin' baby
I want a Sunday kind of love

(Rick Bowles, Will Robinson)

When I heard that familiar voice
My heart stopped dead in it's tracks
Across the room I could see him there
A ghost from my past

But he's too caught up to notice me 
She must be his new love
I never dreamed that it would hurt this much 
It's just

Chorus:
I know how he feels
How warm his touch is
Oh how he feels
How soft his kiss is 
And it cuts right down to the bone 
'Cause I let him go
I know how he cares
How strong his love can be
When he believes it's real 
Oh I've been there 
And I know how he feels

As long as I kept him outta sight
I kept from going out of my mind
Tried to believe that leavin' him 
Was somehow justified
But tonight there's no denying
What a love like his is worth
He once looked at me 
The way he's looking at her
What a lucky girl

Repeat Chorus

(Kendal Franceschi, Quentin Powers)

You spend an awful lot fo time in Massachusetts
Seems like every other week 
You've got a meeting waiting there
Business must be booming 
Or could somthing else 
Be moving in the air up there

You say that it's important for our future
An executive on his way up has got to play the part
And each time duty calls
You've got to give it all 
You've got with all your heart

Chorus:
When whoever's in New England's through with you 
And Boston finds better things to do 
Oh you know it's not to late
And you'll always have a place to come back to 
When whoever's in New England's through with you

I hear the winter time up North can last forever
And I've been told it's beautiful 
To see this time of year
And they say the snow can blind you 
Till the world you left behind
Just disappears, I hear 

I packed your bags and I left them in the hallway
But before you go 
There's just one thing you outta know 
When the icy wind blows through you 
Remember that it's me 
Who feels the cold most of all

Repeat Chorus

(Don Everly)

Chorus:
I want your lovin' 
More and more
I want you kisses
That's for sure
I die each time
I hear the sound 
There's sayin' 
Here he comes
He's Cathy's clown

You know you've gotta stand tall
You know a man can't crawl
And when you let her tell you lies 
And you let 'em pass you by
You're not a man at all

She don't want your lovin' 
Anymore
She don't want your kisses
That's for sure
Why do you let them put you down 
And let 'em call you 
Cathy's clown

When you see me shed a tear
Then you know that I'm sincere
I just think it's kinda sad
That she's treatin' you so bad
And I'm the one who cares

Repeat Chorus

You're Cathy's clown 
You're Cathy's clown

(Don Schlitz, Reba McEntire)

Tell me why do you put up with my foolish ways
You never take to heart the crazy things I say 
Oh I know that you could walk out on me anyday
There must be a darn good reason 
Why you'd even wanna stay

Chorus:
And you must really love me
How can it be true
There are things you'll take from me
I won't even take from you
And every time I fall apart
You always pull me through 
You must really love me
As much as I love you
You must really love me
As much as I love you

I appreciate the honesty you've shown to me 
And the way you tell your friends that you belong to me
And when you hold me tight you always set me free
Oh this must be the way 
That true love was meant to be 

Repeat Chorus

(Suzy Wills, Bill Cooley)

I can't get used to the hustle 
I try to keep my actions straight
I get caught in the bustle
I do things I really hate
Just when I think I'm a sinkin' 
I hear a voice inside my head
Says don't do what you're thinkin'
Send your thoughts to me instead

Chorus:
Somebody up there likes me
Somebody up there knows what I need 
And when my wordly head spins around
He sends his love down 

You know I'm only human
That's what I always say 
It's just excuses 
So I can do things my own way
But when I fall and stumble
I know I will be saved
No my world won't crumble
I'll make it through the hardest days

Repeat Chorus

I wish I'd known all along
But it's much better late
Than to never know you're wrong

Repeat Chorus Twice

He sends his love down 
Somebody up there likes me

(Bob Wills)

Oh you and all your splendor
It knows only me heart
Call back my rose 
Rose of San Antone
Oh lips so sweet and tender 
Just like petals fallin' apart
Speak once again of my love
My ol' broken songs 
Empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit path
Oh beside the Alamo
And Rose my rose of San Antone
Oh my rose my rose of San Antone

(Merle Haggard)

First thing I remember knowin' 
Was a lonesome whistle blowin'
And a young one's dream of growin' up to ride
On a freight train leavin' town 
Not knowin' where I'm bound  
No one could steer me right 
But Mama tried

One and only rebel child
From a family meek and mild
My mama seemed to know what lay in store
In spite of all my Sunday learnin' 
Toward the bad I kept on turnin' 
Till mama couldn't hold me anymore

And I turned twenty-one in prison 
Doin' life without parole
No one could steer me right 
But Mama tried Mama tried
Mama tried to raise me better
But her pleading I denied
And that leaves only me to blame 
'Cause Mama tried

(W. Nelson, P. Buskirk, W. Breeland)

When the evenin' 
Sun goes down 
You can find me 
Hangin' around
Oh the night life 
Ain't no good life
But it's my life

Many people 
Just like me
Dreaming of 
Old used to be's 
Oh the night life
It ain't no good life
But it's my life

Oh listen to the blues they're playin'
Oh listen to what the blues are sayin'

Mine is just 
Another scheme
In a world
Of broken dreams
Oh the night life
It ain't no good life
But it's my life

(Play me some blues boys)

Oh listen to the blues they're playin' 
Oh listen to what the blues are sayin' 

When the evenin' 
Sun goes down 
You can find me
Hangin' around
Oh the night life 
It ain't no good life
But it's my life

The night life
Ain't no good life
But it's my life

(Dolly Parton)

Chorus:
Jolene, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene 
I'm beggin' of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Even though you can
 
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin
And eyes of emerald green
He talks about you in his sleep 
There's nothing I can do to keep from cryin' 
When he calls your name Jolene

Repeat Chorus

Well you can have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me Jolene
I had to have this talk with you 
My happiness depends on you 
And whatever you decide to do Jolene

Repeat Chorus

Jolene 
Jolene
Jolene

(Don Gibson)

Sweet dreams of you 
Every night 
I go through
Why can't I forget the past
And start loving someone new
Instead of having 
Sweet dreams
About you

You don't love me
It's plain
I should have known 
I'd never wear your ring
Oh I should hate 
The whole night through 
Instead of having 
Sweet dreams 
About you

Oh instead 
Of having
Sweet dreams
About you

(Otis Redding)
