1. _ Valentine
If there were no words
no way to speak
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
no way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you
and even if the sun refused to shine
even if romance ran out of rhyme
you would still have my heart
until the end of time
you're all I need, my love, my valentine
All of my life
I have been waiting for
all you give to me
you've opened my eyes
and showed me how to love unselfishly
I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
but in my dreams I couldn't love you more
I will give you my heart
untill the end of time
you're all I need, my love, my valentine
and even if the sun refused to shine
even if romance ran out of rhyme
you would still have my heart
until the end of time
cause all I need is you my valentine
oh
you're all I need, my love, my valentine

2. _ Broken Wing
She loved him like he was
The last man on Earth
Gave him everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up on her
Give a little then take it back
She'd tell him 'bout her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
You're crazy for believin'
You'll ever leave the ground
He said only angels know how to fly
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye over the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly
One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note by the window
With the curtains blowin' in the breeze
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye over the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly

3. _ Blessed
I get kissed by the sun
Each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughing
Down the hall through the
Bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my
Front porch swing
Just soaking up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place
[Chorus]
I have been blessed
And I feel like I've found my way
I thank God for all I've been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones
That love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed
Across a crowded room
I know you know what I'm thinking
By the way I look at you
And when we're lying in the quiet
And no words have to be said
I think to myself, I think to myself
This love is a beautiful gift
[Chorus]
When I'm singing my kids to sleep
When I feel you holding me
I know
[Chorus]

4. _ Wrong Baby Wrong Baby Wrong
Wrong baby wrong baby wrong
It ain't the end of the world
Don't you worry pretty girl
Cause now that he's gone baby gone baby gone
You got nothing to lose
Count the minutes if you want to
It won't be long baby long baby long
'Til you find somebody new
Come on now
Everyone falls down
Everyone crawls now and then
Then they get up again
You cry if you want to
That's what we all do
But if you think you'll never move on you're wrong baby
Cry baby cry baby cry
Go on and let it all out
I ain't leavin' you now
And we can fly baby fly baby fly
Let's share a bottle of wine
We can laugh about the good times
And you'll know why baby why baby why
It's gonna be alright
Come on now
Everyone falls down
Everyone crawls now and then
Then they get up again
You cry if you want to
That's what we all do
But if you think you'll never move on you're wrong baby wrong
Oh you ain't gone
Baby wrong baby wrong
There's nothing wrong with moving on
When you know he's good and gone
Come on now
Everyone falls down
Everyone crawls now and then
Then they get up again
You cry if you want to
That's what we all do
Come on now
Everyone falls down
Everyone crawls now and then
Then they get up again
You cry if you want to
That's what we all do
But if you think you'll never move on you're wrong baby wrong
You're wrong baby wrong
Wrong baby wrong baby wrong

5. _ Happy Girl
I used to live in a darkened room
Had a face of stone
And a heart of gloom
Lost my hope, I was so far gone
Crying all my tears
With the curtains drawn
I didn't know until my soul broke free
I've got these angels watching over me, yeah
Oh watch me go
I'm a happy girl
Everybody knows
That the sweetest thing that you'll ever see
In the whole wide world
Is a happy girl
I used to hide in a party crowd
Bottled up inside
Feeling so left out
Standing in a corner wearing concrete shoes
With my frozen smile
And my lighted fuse
Now every time I start to feel like that
I roll my heart out like a welcome mat
Oh watch me go
I'm a happy girl
Everybody knows
That the sweetest thing that you'll ever see
In the whole wide world
Is a happy girl
Laugh when I feel like it
Cry when I feel like it
That's just how my life is
That's how it goes
Oh watch me go
I'm a happy girl
And I've come to know
That the world won't change
Just 'cause I complain
Let the axis twirl
I'm a happy girl
Oh watch me go
I'm a happy girl
Everybody knows
That the sweetest thing that you'll ever see
In the whole wide world
Is a happy girl
Oh,yeah oh,yeah
I'm a happy girl

6. _ Ride
You wake up from your dreaming
And you don't want to face the day
You can't find a reason
To think your world will ever change
You can hide beneath the covers
Or you can run outside head up high and carry on
Life is a roller coaster ride
Time Turns the Wheel and Love Collides
Faith is believing you can close your eyes and touch the sky.
So Shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
It brings you up slowly then shoots you like a rocket towards the ground
It twists you and it shakes you before it turns you upside down
You can't see what's around the corner
And You can't look back, so just live it up and feel the rush
Life is a roller coaster ride
Time Turns the Wheel and Love Collides
Faith is believing you can close your eyes and touch the sky.
So Shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
Ride, ride
So shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
Ride, ride!

7. _ Where Would You Be
I wonder where your heart is
Cause it sure don't feel like its here
Sometimes I think you wish
That I would just disappear
Have I got it all wrong
Have you felt this way long
Are you already gone
Do you feel lonely
When you're here by my side
Does the sound of freedom
Echo in your mind
Do you wish you were by yourself
Or that I was someone else
Anyone else
[Chorus]
Where would you be
If you weren't here with me
Where would you go
If you were single and free
Who would you love
Would it be me
Where would you be
I don't wanna hold you back
No I don't wanna slow you down
I don't wanna make you feel
Like you're all tied up and bound
'Cause that's not what love's about
If there's no chance we could work it out
Oh tell me now
Tell me, tell me now
[Chorus]
Have I become the enemy
Is it hard to be yourself in my company
[Chorus]
Oh tell me, tell me now
Where will you be
Where will you go
Who will you love
Would it be me
Where would you be
|
8. _ Surrender
Baby why did we get into this
If all we're gonna do is fight
About kids and money and stupid little things
Someone's always is gotta be right
I was just thinking why you were still yelling
That I don't even hear you anymore
And baby it's not all your fault
But I'm tired of being a soldier
And this time when I ball a war
So I'm gonna surrender
Surrender
So how rule out my white flag
If you lay down your arms
And if we can start talking in instead of just screaming
And maybe we can save all of our hearts
'Cause nobody is coming to the rescue
Baby it's so much of you and me
To find a little compromise,
Find a love ..runs
And live our lives in peace
We're gonna have to surrender
I won't fight anymore
Surrender
I don't know what we're fighting for
Surrender
I won't fight anymore
Surrender
I don't know what we're fighting for
I walk through this battle lies
I will cross this great divide
I will, I will, I will, I will
Hey down my
Surrender
Baby you know I will
Surrender
Surrender
I won't fight anymore
Surrender
I don't know what we're fighting for
Surrender
I won't fight anymore
Surrender
I don't know what we're fighting for

9. _ Independence Day
Well she seemed all right by dawn's early light
Though she looked a little worried and weak.
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again
But daddy'd left the proof on her cheek.
And I was only eight years old that summer
And I always seemed to be in the way
So I took myself down to the fair in town
On Independence Day.
Well,word gets around in a small,small town
They said he was a dangerous man
But mama was proud and she stood her ground
But she knew she was on the losin' end.
Some folks whispered and some folks talked
But everybody looked the other way
And when time ran out there was no one about
On Independence Day.
[Chorus]
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today
Is a day of reckoning.
Let the weak be strong,let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away, let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day.
Well,she lit up the sky that fourth of July
By the time that the firemen come
They just put out the flames
And took down some names
And send me to the county home.
Now I ain't sayin' it's right or it's wrong
But maybe it's the only way.
Talk about your revolution
It's Independence Day.
[Chorus]
Roll the stone away
It's Independence Day.

10. _ Being Myself
Sometimes I'm an ordinary girl, wrapped in my ordinary world
I just wanna listen to the rain, and stay in bed all day
Other times I'm extroverted, speak my mind and I don't worry who,
Might disagree or what anyone might say
I don't listen to the critics
Believin' all their cynics
I don't need that kind of advice
'Cause I'm doing alright
[Chorus]
Just being myself
That's all that I can be
Happy being me
Don't really wanna be nobody else
I know who I am
And the one thing I do, well
Is just being myself, yeah yeah
I can be the drama queen, where my emotions on my sleeve
Sometimes, I know, I?m a little hard to handle
Other days I rather stay at home and have the leave me alone
I just need some space, just a little space
I don't listen to the critics
Believin' all their cynics
No I don't have the time
'Cause I'm doin' alright
[Chorus]
Don't really wanna be nobody else
I know who I am and the one thing I do well,
Is just being myself

11. _ Wild Angels
Between the perfect world and the bottom line
Keeping love alive in these troubled times
It's a miracle in itself
And we know too well what that's about
Still we made it through, only God knows how
We must've had a little help
(Must've been)
[Chorus]
Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Watching over you and me
Wild Angels, Wild Angels
Baby what else could it be
Well it must've been hard, it must've been tough
Keeping up with crazy fools like us
'Cause it's so easy to fall apart
And we still break each other's heart sometimes
Spent some nights on the jagged side
Somehow we wake up in each other's arms
(Must've been)
[Chorus]
There are some nights
I watch you while you dream
I swear I hear the sound of beating wings
[Chorus]

12. _ This One's For the Girls
This is for all you girls about thirteen,
High school can be so rough can be so mean,
Hold on to on to your innocence,
Stand your ground when everybody's givin' in.
This one's for the girls
This is for all you girls about twenty five,
In little apartments just tryin' to get by,
Livin' on on dreams and spaghetti-o's,
Wonderin' where your life is gonna go.
[Chorus]
This one's for the girls,
Who've ever had a broken heart,
Who've wished upon a shooting star,
You're beautiful the way you are,
This one's for the girls,
Who love without holdin' back,
Who dream with everything they have,
All around the world,
This one's for the girls.
This is for all you girls about forty two,
Tossin' pennies into the fountain of youth,
Every laugh line on your face,
Made you who you are today.
[Chorus]
Yeah we're all the same inside,
From one to ninety nine
[Chorus]

13. _ In My Daughter's Eyes
In my daughter's eyes,
I am a hero,
I am strong and wise,
And I know no fear,
But the truth is plain to see,
She was sent to rescue me,
I see who I want to be,
In my daughter's eyes
In my daughter's eyes,
Everyone is equal,
Darkness turns to light,
And the world is at peace,
This miracle god gave to me,
Gives me strength when I am weak,
I find reason to believe,
In my daughter's eyes
And when she wraps her hand around my finger,
How it puts a smile in my heart,
Everything becomes a little clearer,
I realize what life is all about,
It's hanging on when your heart is had enough,
It's giving more when you feel like giving up,
I've seen the light,
It's in my daughter's eyes
In my daughter's eyes,
I can see the future,
A reflection of who I am and what will be,
And though she'll grow and someday leave,
Maybe raise a family,
When i'm gone I hope you see,
How happy she made me,
For i'll be there,
In my daughter's eyes
|
14. _ Straight To the Bone
I'm starrin' at this empty chair, listenin' for the laughter that went
Clear up to the ceiling. It's so long since you were sitting there and now
The rust is rustin' and the paint is peelin'
I miss you
I read your letters and I almost break. They're warm like flannel, I can
Still smell your after shave. I don't spend all my time missin' you like
This, but when it hits, it hits
You felt like home, and I feel you now straight to the bone. I miss you...
This sure can be a lonely place. I wanna look up and see you there standin'
In the doorway. And I'd give anything to kiss your face and help ya blow
You felt like home. I feel you now, straight to the bone. I miss you
I wanna hear you in the kitchen, makin' noise, singin' out a tune at the
Top of your voice. I wear these memories, it's a blessing and a curse
'Cause when it hurts, it hurts
You felt like home and I feel you now, straight to the bone. I miss you
I miss you
|
15. _ Whatever You Say
You think I'm always makin'
Something out of nothin'
You're sayin' everything's okay.
You've always got an answer
Before I ask the question.
Whatever you say.
Now we can change the subject
Pretend I never brought it up,
Same old story anyway.
Later we can work it out
Right now you're talked out.
Yeah,whatever you say.
[Chorus]
Oh I know you can hear me
But I'm not sure you're listening
I hear what you're sayin'
But still there's something missin'.
Whether I go,whether I stay
Right now depends on
Whatever you say.
You say yes you need me
And no you wouldn't leave me
And that should be enough to make me stay.
And even though I want to
I don't hear I love you
In whatever you say.
[Chorus]
Oh whether I go,whether I stay
Right now depends on
Whatever you say.
Whatever you say.
Whatever you say.

16. _ Anyway
You can spend your whole life building
Something from nothin'
One storm can come and blow it all away
Build it anyway
You can chase a dream
That seems so out of reach
And you know it might not never come your way
Dream it anyway
[Chorus]
God is great
But sometimes life ain't good
And when I pray
It doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway
This world's gone crazy
It's hard to believe
That tomorrow will be better than today
Believe it anyway
You can love someone with all your heart
For all the right reasons
In a moment they can choose to walk away
Love 'em anyway
[Chorus]
You can pour your soul out singing
A song you believe in
That tomorrow they'll forget you ever sang
Sing it anyway
Yeah, sing it anyway
I sing
I dream
I love
Anyway

17. _ My Baby Loves Me
Don't need no copy of vogue magazine
Don't need to dress like no
Beauty Queen
High heels or sneakers, he don't
give a damn
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am
He never tells me I'm not good enough
Just give me unconditional love
He loves me tender and he loves me mad
He loves me silly and he loves me sad
[Chorus]
He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart
He likes my nerve and he loves my heart
He's always sayin' he's my biggest fan
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am
And when there's dark clouds in my eyes
He just sits back and lets 'em roll on by
I come in like a lion go out like a lamb
My baby loves me just the way I am
My baby loves me just the way I am
[Chorus]
He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart
He likes my nerve and he loves my heart
Don't see no reason to change my plan
My baby loves me just the way I am
My baby loves me just the way I am
|
18. _ Concrete Angel
She walks to school with the lunch
She packed
Nobody knows what she's
Holdin' back
Wearin' the same dress
She wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen
And lace
(oh oh)
The teacher wonders but she
Doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain
Behind the mask
Bearing the burden
Of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was
Never born
[Chorus]
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In her world that she can rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where
She's loved
Concrete angel
Somebody cries in the middle
Of the night
The neighbors hear, but they turn
Out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands
Of fate
When morning comes
It'll be too late
[Chorus]
A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot
[Chorus]
|
19. _ Love's the Only House
I was standing in the grocery store line
The one they marked express
When this woman came through with about 25 things
And I said don't you know that more is less
She said this world is moving so fast
But I just get more behind with every day
And every morning when I make my coffee
I can't believe my life's turned out this way
All I could say was
[Chorus]
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain in the world
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain
He was walking by the other day and I said
Hey baby how you been?
Yeah I got me a little girl now and she's 4 years old
And she's got her daddy's little grin
And you only want what you can't have
And baby you can't have me now
I gave my heart to another
Yeah I'm a mother and he's a father and we're a family
And we've got each other
And I found out the hard way that
[Chorus]
You drive three miles from all this prosperity
Down across the river and you see a ghetto there
And we got children walking around with guns
And they got knives with drugs and pain to spare
And here I am in my clean, white shirt
With a little money in my pocket and a nice warm home
And we got teenagers walkin' around in a culture of darkness
Livin' together alone, and all I can say is
[Chorus]
And I can't explain it and I can't understand
But I'll come down and get my hands dirty and together we'll make a stand
Somewhere cross the parking lot some bands playin out of tune
City streets are gonna burn if we don't do something soon
And senorita can't quit cryin, baby's due now any day
Don Juan left, got sick of tryin
No one there to show him the way she came down to the grocery store and
She said I, I wanna buy a little carton of milk but I don't have any money
I said hey I'll cover you honey cause the pain's gotta go somewhere
Yeah the pain's gotta go someplace
So come on down to my house
Don't you know that
[Chorus]
|
20. _ I Love You
The sun is shinin' everyday
Clouds never get in the way
For you and me.
I've known you just a week or two
But,baby,I'm so into you
Can hardly breathe.
[Chorus]
And I'm in so totally wrapped up
Emotionally attracted,so physically actin'
So recklessly I need you
So desperately sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you.
I never knew that I could feel like this
Can hardly wait til our next kiss
You're so cool.
If I'm dreamin' please don't wake me up
Cause, baby, I can't get enough
Of what you do.
[Chorus]
And I'm in so electrically charged up kinetically
Actin' erratically,need you fanatically
You get to me magically
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you.
I can't believe that this is real.
The way I feel.
Baby,I'm gone head over heels.
[Chorus]
Baby, I love you.
Do you love me too?
Baby, I love you.
