1. _ Ain't It Always That Way
I took chance, i took a fall
Waited on love 'til i could give it my all
Then i let my heart fly
Took a rose to her door
Stood there like a statue just sort of frozen by her presence
But i shyed (not sure of this line...)
Chorus:
Ain't it always that way
When you want to believe
Ain't it always that way
When you want and you need
Ain't it always that way
When you want to rely
Ain't it always that way
When you want and you need and you cry
Yes and then i took a space out of time
I don't wanna sound like a thief but the moment was mine and i stole it, it felt right
I took a chance, took a fall
Waited on love until i could give it my all
Then i let my heart fly
Chorus
Ain't it always that way
When you want to believe
Ain't it always that way
When you want and you need and you cry

2. _ Radio
There's a long white line stretching out on the road ahead
And there ain't one magazine that i ain't read
I haven't seen you in weeks but i hear you on the radio
Singing soft and low
Chorus:
We're so far apart
This old highway ain't home
When the heartache starts
I just turn the radio on
There never seems to be time for me and you
That's a price you pay for the life you choose
Tonight's the loneliest night i've ever known
It just goes on and on
Repeat chorus
It does my heart good to see you shine
So i'll just keep on counting these white lines
I haven't seen you in weeks but i hear you on the radio
Calling me back home
Repeat chorus to fade

3. _ True Love
Is today my lucky day
Are you gonna look my way
And see true love
If you're not sure he holds your heart
Don't let pride keep us apart
You need true love
Chorus:
True love is all i'm after
I long to hear your laughter
The only thing that matters
Is it's true love
It's true love
I hear your voice in every sound
You're never there when i turn around
I need true love
I can't quit and i won't give in
Until you're back in my arms again
We need true love
Chorus
When i look at you you look right through me
I wish you knew
What your love's done to me
Is today my lucky day
Are you gonna look my way
And see true love
Yeah...
Chorus
It's true love (repeat to fade)

4. _ Something's Missing
The street looks different tonight
Something has changed
I had this picture in mind
But it's just not the same
Had this great expectation
About a heart that's free
I thought that's what i wanted
Would be waiting for me
Chorus:
Baby something's missing tonight
Something ain't feeling right
Baby something's wrong and i'm so confused
Baby something's missing inside
Something i can't find in the night
I finally realized what i'm missing is you
In this crowd of old friends
Why do i feel alone
I thought i'd fall back in step
This is where i belong
I thought that freedom was a voice
Calling from the dark
Now i see i was only free
When you were in my heart
Chorus
I thought that freedom was a voice
Calling from the dark
Now i see i was only free
When you were in my heart

5. _ Losing Your Love
Stars are falling from your eyes
You don't feel what i feel inside
Your hand is warm but your heart is cold
If you're hurtin' you don't let it show
How much longer can we go on
Actin' like there's nothin' wrong
How much farther can we drift apart
Before all the feeling is gone
Chorus:
I'm losing your love
It's slippin' away
Minute by minute
Day by day
Losing your love
Don't you think i know
It's a matter of time
'til you let go
I see the moon shinin' up above
Reminded me how good it was
There's a chill comin' over me
Why can't it be like it used to be
I feel so helpless, i can't make you stay
No matter how hard i try
I can't deny that look in your eyes
Tryin' to tell me goodbye
Chorus
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go

6. _ Cinderella
Say you're sorry
You still care
She came by my place again
Cryin' about you man
You should love her
Twice as much
I try to remember you're a friend
But it's gettin' a little rough
1st chorus:
She's just tired
Of bein' cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection
A little understanding
You better be careful 'cause the next time she comes to my door
She won't be a cinderella no more
A teardrop trembled
On her face
Where that smile always was
It seemed out of place
And when i held her
Like a friend
I could feel a sweet beginning
But taste a bitter end
2nd chorus:
She's just tired
Of bein' cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection
A little understanding
You better be careful 'cause the next time she comes to my door
You'll be sorry
'cause it seems like
It's always something with you
And everybody's always wrong
One of these nights
You'll reach for the pillow she sleeps on
And she's gonna be gone

7. _ Oh Carolina
Sunrise through the evergreens
Another day is born
The hills take on a golden glow
A carolina morn
I used to see you in her eyes
Now i just got to know
Oh carolina, how could you let her go
Chorus:
Oh carolina, if i'd only known
Oh carolina, i would have never gone
I thought the beauty of your hills
Would hold her here for me
I never dreamed while i was gone
You'd ever set her free
I trusted you with all my heart
And the only love i've known
Oh carolina, how could you let her go
Repeat chorus x 2
I would have never gone

9. _ Don't Say That You Love Me
I'm gonna tell you right up front
So you will understand
I ain't gonna waste your time
'cause i might not be your man
We won't go makin' promises
'cause you know it just ain't right
A promise is a promise, girl
And tonight is just tonight
Tonight is just tonight
Chorus:
Don't say that you love me
If it don't feel right
Don't say that you love me
Just hold me tonight
There ain't no need for broken hearts
I know in time they mend
Any fool can fall in love
It's so easy to pretend
Don't tell me i'm the only one
If it doesn't mean a thing
Let's take tonight for what it's worth
And see what tomorrow brings
And see what tomorrow brings

10. _ Way Back Home
A little girl was cryin'
For her mama and her daddy
She couldn't understand why they were gone
She never knew the danger
Of talking to a stranger
Now the girl can't find her way back home
A little boy went walkin'
Down to the corner market
To buy a loaf of bread and an ince cream cone
He never knew the dnager
Of talkin' to a stranger
Now the boy can't find the way back home
Chorus:
Too many kids are missin'
Is anybody listening?
Won't you be the children's eyes
They're all alone
The hardest part's not knowing
Where they are or where they're going
Won't you help the children find
The way back home
The faces on milk cartons
Thrown away and soon forgotten
What if one of those sweet kids
Was your very own
Tonight those kids are weeping
While yours are safely sleeping
Won't you help the children find
The way back home
Chorus
Won't you help the children find
The way back home

11. _ Midnight Train
I'm a long long way from home
Mendin' a broken heart
Runnin' away from a love gone wrong
Tryin' to make a new start
An old friend called me up to say
That you've made some wedding plans
I'm comin' home on that midhight train
And fight for you like a man
Chorus:
Midnight train make your whistle brlow
Engineer pour your load of coal
Midnight train make your engine whine
Midnight train get me home on time
Oh the thought of another man holdin' you
Is drivin' me insane
My only chance is to ride all night
I can't let you change your name
Now hey conductor we can't be late
Rollin' on down the track
'cause you know tomorrow's your wedding day
I gotta win my baby back

And i'll get by without you

14. _ Oklahoma Borderline
Well it's rainin' down in houston
And i got holes in both my shoes
Baby's put me on the street

Someone tell her that she's wrong
I'm goin' back to oklahoma, boys
'cause that's where i belong

I need one good ride
I'll be satisfied
Come on oklahoma borderline
If we roll all night
She'll be comin' into sight
Come on oklahoma borderline

Doggin' me around
I may be a okie, son
But i've still been to town
Well those oklahoma city girls
They always treat you right
Well tell mama that i'm comin' home (not sure of this line...)
And i'm leavin' out tonight
Chorus
So with two bucks in my pocket
And my thumb stuck in the wind
When i cross red river, boys
I won't be back again
Give me old back roads and truck stops
And 18 wheels that whine
And some good ol' boy to take me
To that oklahoma line
Chorus
I caught one good ride
She's comin' into sight
Hello oklahoma borderline

15. _ Colder Than Winter
It's colder than winter
Right here in my heart
Lord i'm gonna miss her
She's torn me apart
I couldn't make you love me
I couldn't give any more
It's colder than winter
Since you closed the door
It's colder than winter
I'm freezing inside
And my tears won't be bitter
Even though our love died
I couldn't make you love me
I couldn't give any more
It's colder than winter
Since you closed the door
Every time the sun sets
I shed another tear
And the lonelier i get
Wishing you were still here
I couldn't make you love me
I couldn't give any more
It's colder than winter
Since you closed the door

No other lover ever really cared
When i've reached out for you you've always been there
Now i'm so far away and baby i'm scared
I never knew lonely til you
You are my rock and the strength i need
To keep me sane in this life that i lead
Now i'm not with you and my broken heart bleeds

I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like i love you
I never knew lonely til you
I can't make up for the times i've been gone
But i'll prove i love you in the words of this song
Back in your arms girl it's where i belong

I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like i love you

Have i gone crazy
Is there someone new
Something strange is going on
Between me and you

When i told my baby
Do what you wanna do
Well i had no idea
Just what she'd put me through
Every night she's runnin' 'round
Singin' songs in your hometown
There ain't no one to love me
When the sun goes down
Chorus:
Well, she's everybody's sweetheart
Everybody's sweetheart but mine
I shoulda kept her barefoot
Barefoot and pregnant all the time
I used to be the first in line
Now i've fallen way behind
She's everybody's sweetheart
Everybody's sweetheart but mine
All that country club money
Lord it sure looked good to me... yeah it did
Playin' golf with those fat cats
How much better could life be
They all think i've got it made
They see your face on every page
Of every magazine
Across the usa

If you see her tell her hi
And everything will be all right
Tell her that i love her
'til the day i die

Come on home

And i was supposed to've left for memphis late last night
But i stopped at one of them old highway places
And 'cause i did i'll sleep in tarren county jail tonight
Well i started out tonight with good intentions
But i ended up gettin' sidways drinkin' wine
Well the last thing i remember we was rollin'
And something hit my head and knocked me from my conscious mind

And i'm a victim of life's circumstances
Well i was raised around bar rooms and friday night dances
Ingin' them old country songs
And half the time ending up some place i don't belong

Well he looked at me and halfway closed one eye
Well he said, "to mean to say you don't remember cuttin' up some fool with that bone handled knife?"

And give my heart back to you

Caused my lonely heart to roam
Now i've got start livin' the way i do

From faithful love to a fool
From hangin' out in honkey tonks

And give my heart back to you

I've said all that i can say
But you turned and walked away
It's too late to stop livin' the way i do
