Today, I burned your old love letters. I burned them gently, one by one. And as I light the flame, I'd read it. So I could see what you had done. . The first you wrote me was the sweetest.
RISING TIDES. TEMPEST LIVES. FROM THE DAY YOU'RE BORN. YOU COULD ROW. AND NEVER KNOW. THE CALM INSIDE THE STORM. THAT'S RAGING ON. . AND WHEN THE WAVES GET TO ROCKING.
The clubs are all closed and there's no where to go. When the sun wont show for hours. The streets have all emptied and lovers lay sleeping. And dreaming of each other..
It's so good to see your face again. It's so good to hold your hand. It's so good to kiss your lips again. You make me feel like a man. . It's so good to see you smile again.
You may see me walkin',. You may hear me talkin',. But the words I speak won't ever be about you.. You once left me cryin',. And now you're still tryin',.
You would think after all this time. I wouldn't let you in tonight. That all those feelings for you would be gone. You would think but you'd be wrong.
Out on the highway a lot of pretty girls go by. But none have been right. Up until today I would never settle down. But you keep coming around. . And your love is a miracle.
Your cheating heart will make you weep. You'll cry and cry and try to sleep. But sleep won't come the whole night through. Your cheating heart will tell on you.
The news is out all over town. That you've been seen a running round. I know that I should leave. But then I just can't go you win again. . This heart of mine could never see.
He was born to be known as everybody's brother. He is the Father, Son and Mary is His mother. He is a 'scuse my slanguage. . Well, a compound country kinda guy.
The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping. I dreamed I held you in my arms. When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken. And I hung my head & cried. . You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
So much silence to my hometown streets,. gonna put my cheek to the window and watch it sleep. Where the shadows fall from sycamore trees,. fight off this north wind and I'll be headin' back east.
Honestly, I can't believe the magic you do. Never seen anything as lovely as you. I was so afraid, I was so alone an' blue. I took you in my arms, now I'm goin' home with you.
The world loves the winners but someone must lose. There's bound to be someone left with the blues. So why should I worry when you go away yesterday's winner is a loser today.
Writer: Steve Goodman. . It was all I could do to keep from cryin'. Sometimes it seemed so useless to remain. But you don't have to call me darlin' darlin'.
He's free as the breeze. He's always at ease. He lives in the jungle and hangs by his knees. As he swings through the trees. With a trapeze in his B.V.D.s.
He was a down home cutie with a farm boy smile. Big blue eyes like the Kansas sky. He sat down beside me and we talked a bit. I told him my dreams, he told me his.
I don't like you, but I love you,. Seems that I'm always thinking of you.. Oh, oh, oh, you treat me badly,. I love you madly, you really got a hold on me..
You give your hand to me and then you say hello. And I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so. And anyone can tell, you think you know me well. But you don't know me.
Well I said honey you don't know me. But I feel like I know you. Do you mind if I come in. It'll only take a minute or two. And by the way, I really like.
