There were signs all over town Come see the rodeo When I saw those fairground lights a shinin I knew I had to go There were bulls and wild horses Barrels and clowns Rhinestones and glitter sparklin and cowboys all around But there was one I never will forget
Chorus: He was wild, as tumbleweed blowin' Restless like a river runnin' free And when he smiled, I knew my heart would be broken He was gonna leave that's the cowboy guarantee
That night we got together We drove out to the lake Beneath the stars in Texas moonlight I gave my heart away But you can't tame a river And I would'nt want to try Cuz' it was worth all the hurtin' To know that for one night, I was loved Like I've never been before
Chorus (2 times)
Cuz' a cowboy is a cowboy And he's always gonna be That's the cowboy guarantee oooh That's the cowboy guarantee ooooh They're gone, They're gone Yeah cowboy guarantee (fades)
All my life I've waited And I've been afraid and I wondered if I'd find Someone to share my life
Everyday I prayed and Every night I searched in Every strangers eyes For some kind of sign
Me and my heart wishin' in the dark Tryin' to believe in a sky full of stars I was waiting for you A million empty days Too much time and space Every tear I cried Every lonely night I was waiting for you
Chorus: Now Here you are And my world is My world is so beautiful Now Here you are And my life is My life is so wonderful Now
The past seems like a dream Just a vacancy How did I exsist Before our first kiss Oh I feel so lucky Because I know you love me And no one ever has Like no one ever has
Me and my heart wishin' in the dark Tryin' to believe in a sky full of stars I was waiting for you All those empty days All the time and space Every tear I cried Every lonely night I was waiting for you
Monday mornings are bittersweet Just like the coffee in my cup It's what you need but not enough
Here without warning, another week I'd rather crawl back into bed And lie with you all day instead
Everyone around the world can understand me And this feeling inside Maybe my heart is just a little too demanding Oh, but when I look in your eyes When I look in your eyes baby
Chorus: I need a second Sunday So I can be with you I'm gonna go tell Monday This is something I've got to do Another 24 hours Is all that it takes Sometimes love just needs a second Sunday
It's 6 A.M. Hey, aren't you sweet With your hair all in a mess I wonder why did I get dressed
When from California to NYC There's a fever goin' 'round Like the love that we have found
Maybe my heart is just a little too demanding Oh, but when I look in your eyes When I look in your eyes
REPEAT CHORUS
Another 24 hours Is all that it takes Sometimes love just needs a second Sunday
Don't feel guilty just 'cause we wanna stay in bed If you love me, don't let the weekend go
It felt like just a moment They way they never last Where were you goin' That you had to leave so fast
We were supposed to wake up One day when we were older Holdin' on forever But we flew past each other
Chorus: Like windows on a train The flashing of a frame I can't hold on, but I can't let go A snapshot in my mind Of a love that's stuck in time I saw it slip away Windows on a train
I'm not sure what happened But here I am alone Tryin' to find a way To find a reason that you're gone I don't know if I'm shakin' From the rhythm of these wheels Or if it's my heart breakin' And this is how it feels This is how it feels
REPEAT CHORUS
I'm on my way To kneel down with the truth With my black dress on To say goodbye to you
Who will win the holy war Can you tell me what they're fighting for And do you look down in disgust God don't give up on us
Mother nature's ashamed and bruised All her precious gifts abused Her forest burns, her rivers rust God don't give up on us
Don't give up on me Don't give up on love Nothing loved is ever lost God don't give up on us
We hold our babies in our arms And pray you'll keep them safe from harm In a world that's so unjust God don't give up on us
Don't give up on me Don't give up on love Nothing loved is ever lost God don't give up
For every bullet fired For every soul that's lost Forgive our dark desires And the pain we've caused Please don't close your eyes To the part of us that's beautiful...still beautiful
How can we regain your trust God don't give up God don't give up on us
Guess it's written on my face God I get so sick of this place I gotta get up, get out, and get a life The days run long, the night's too short Not much time for me no more And I'm well over due So now I'm going to
Chorus: Let my hair down and bleach it blonde Turn the ringer off and the engine on 'Cause I can't wait to get to the good times Yeah, just one stop at the ATM Grab a hundred bucks and a real good friend Pack it up, and take a load off my mind 'Cause I can't wait to get to the good times
Me and my baby get along Got a lot of love, got it goin' on I wouldn't let go, not for anything Somethin' 'bout how the highway feels When you drive along on your freedom wheels You know any destination will kill the frustration
Chorus
Just for the weekend Let's jump off the deep end I'm goin' to
I've spent years, and all of this time Thinkin' I was better off cause you were mine You always said it was your way or the highway So I'm shiftin' my life into drive I'm gettin' out, kissin' the past goodbye Like Toby said "How do you like me now" This conversation has run dry And I keep tellin' myself
oooh oooh ooh There's more to me than you oooh oooh Don't underestimate what I can do Well I'm alright It's okay I know I'll make it through Cause there's more to me than you
I'm not sayin' I'm battered and bruised But I might as well be with the words you used I believe in myself That makes me stronger Things change, so have I I'm gonna make hay while the sun still shines You can clip my wings, I'm still gonna fly I'm on my own and on my way And I keep tellin' myself
(Chorus)
There was always something that meant more to you than me and I'm just sorry it's taken this for you to see
Boy I tried to write a letter I just need to make things better And I'm prayin' that you'll let me work this out I tried to call you on your phone And it seems your not at home This is somethin' that we have to talk about Here I am Finally face to face Here's what I'm trying to say
Chorus What was I thinkin' baby Should've seen the writing on the wall Never thought you'd ever leave me Now I know What were you tryin' to tell me Thought about everything you said Ever since you walked away boy Now I know
There's no other way to say it Baby, please let's not delay it Boy, I know you feel the same its in your eyes Since you've gone my hearts been missin' And I hope that you will listen boy without you I wont make it one more night
Take me back I was such a fool I'm dying without you
(Chorus)
(Bridge) I can't live my life without you Everything said was true I should have known it from the start Now you own my heart Now I know Now I know Doesn't matter what I do I can't make it without you (Chorus3x)
I laid the blanket there on the shoreline And saw the water shine with the moon What kind of fool would fail to notice The best thing shining was you
Oh I laughed kinda nervous, I felt you move closer And felt the world unwind Once was a stranger, not quite a lover But steadily crossing the line
Carry me far away Don't hold back I won't break Leave the ghosts behind All I know wrong or right Just the thought of this night Will get me every time Every time
Well the voice in my head said, 'What are you doing' I thought, 'Not listening to you' You see I'm taking a chance, And thinking 'bout flying Over the blue
And it's crazy to be this out of practice And have it all come so naturally Don't you love knocking logic right off it's axis And watch it flow far out to sea
Carry me far away Don't hold back, I won't break Leave the ghosts behind All I know wrong or right Just the thought of this night Will get me everytime Every time Every time Every time Every time
So now here I am reading my fortune In the winding lines of your hand Oh and I see a lost unwanted orphan Head right for the promised land Carry me far away I won't, I won't break
Carry me far away Don't hold back, I won't break Leave the ghosts behind All I know wrong or right Just the thought of this night Will get me every time Every time
If I had a zillion dollars And the whole world on a string Diamonds in my pockets and the power of a king I don't think I'd be any happier than I am right now 'Cause money's only paper It might buy a lot of stuff But if money's what you're chasing You won't ever have enough 'Cause the best things in life Might not be free but they sure are cheap
Chorus: Like sunshine, blue skies and the river on a hot, hot day Moonlight and a good fight, standing out in the pouring rain So many things that money buys But really nothing I can find Like sunshine and love
There is something about the moment When two hemispheres collide And someone opens up their world and lets you see inside And you realize that everything that you've been waiting for For your whole life is standing right tere Ain't nothing like love
REPEAT CHORUS
And sunshine, blue skies and the river on a hot, hot day Moonlight and a good fight Standing out in the pouring rain
Out of nowhere you just wanna be free Cut me loose forget all about me Baby tell me have you ever heard About this little five letter word
CHORUS: What comes around, goes around I'm tellin you baby, it's called Karma What goes up comes down, hits the ground, You're gonna find out all about, all about KKKKK-Karma
Go on, go on, go have your day in the sun Have a blast honey have you some fun But don't forget about that golden rule What you do to others is gonna get done to you
(chorus)
BRIDGE: Life is like a kaliedoscope Changing colors every day But there's one thing that I know You can't mess around with your fate (Go on, go on, go on) (repeat chorus x2) Yeah, it's called karma KKKKK-Karma KKKKK-Karma
I can stand with the weight of the world On my shoulders I can fight with the toughest of the tough I can laugh in the face Of all my insecurities Anytime, anywhere, anything I'm strong enough
But when you're holding me like this I'm carelessly lost in your touch I'm completely defenseless Baby, it's almost too much I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly Falling in love
So let consequence do what it will to us I don't care Let the stars stand as witness to it all Say the word and tonight I will follow you anywhere I just can't pretend anymore I'm too sturdy to fall
'Cause when you're holding me like this I'm carelessly lost in your touch I'm completely defenseless Baby, it's almost too much I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly Falling in love
I am not afraid I am not afraid.....
'Cause when you're holding me like this I'm carelessly lost in your touch I'm completely defenseless Baby, it's almost too much I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly Falling... (Helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly) I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly Falling in love
If I live to be a hundred and never see the seven wonders that'll be alright If I don't make it to the big leagues If I never win a grammy I'm gonna be just fine Cause I know exactly who I am
Chorus: I am Rosemary's granddaughter the spitting image of my father and when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy but I've got friends that love me and they know just where I stand It's all a part of me and that's who I am
Verse 2: So when I make a big mistake when I fall flat on my face I know I'll be alright Should my tender heart be broken I will cry those teardrops knowin' I will be just fine 'cause nothin' changes who I am
Chorus: I am Rosemary's granddaughter the spitting image of my father and when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy but I've got friends that love me and they know just where I stand It's all a part of me and that's who I am
Bridge: I'm a saint and I'm a sinner I'm a loser I'm a winner I am steady and unstable I am young but I am able
Chorus: I am Rosemary's granddaughter the spitting image of my father and when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy but I've got friends that love me and they know where I stand It's all a part of me and that's who I am
Love was always letting me down You know what I mean The man of my dreams Should knock me off my feet Like you're doing now boy, now You figured it out boy, how How did you reach down inside and find a butterfly Im a butterfly Learning how to fly
(chorus) These wings they fly away, high away I want to hide away These wings they fly away, high away I want to hide away, oh
Hard, every day was so hard Now dont they go by Like riding a slide Get to the end, fly off into the night boy night Everything is so right boy right Now I could just circle the moon and bring it back to you Bring it back to you Theres nothing I cant do
Repeat Chorus
Like youre doing now boy, now You figured it out boy, how How did you reach down inside and Find a butterfly Im a butterfly Watch me fly
There's moonlight on the trees Paintin' silver on the leaves It's so beautiful out here I just had to stop and stare That's unusual for me I had a happy heart of stone No voice to answer but my own Now I want more from the night Since you waltzed into my life You couldn't leave well enough alone
Why Out of all the people in this world Why did you set your sights and single out this girl Oh Why did you have to go and Make me love you Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you
In an instant sweet and strange Everything about me changed Whether I want to or not I come to you with all I've got And I'll never be the same
Why Out of all the people in this world Why did you set your sights and single out this girl Oh Why did you have to go and Make me love you Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you Tell me why Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you
Maybe this is just a dream Or maybe this was meant to be I just pinch myself and wonder Why
Why Out of all the people in this world Why did you set your sights and single out this girl Oh Why did you have to go and Make me love you Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you Tell me why Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you Tell me why Why'd you have to go and make me Why'd you have to go and make me Love you
here goes another day another hug and a kiss we're on our way a cup of coffee for the road baby i can't wait to get back home we juggle all our hopes and dreams with a million responsibilities and now and then we drop the ball we lean sometimes but we never fall
CHORUS: look at me, look at you look at all that we've been through with a lot of love and a little luck so far it's been so good cross your fingers, knock on wood and pray and if it helps go throw a dollar in the wishing well
it ain't always laughs and smiles but the carousel just ain't our style the roller coaster suits us fine boy the ups and downs liven up the ride
CHORUS
let a hundred pennies fall splash and send up all our dreams to heaven
CHORUS
