Heartbreaker

I don't know why i like him, i just only know i do
I don't know why i trust him, i just know his heart is true
I don't know why he's more a man than any man i know
I don't know how i know the man's for real but i still know
The man is more than what meets the eye
He is worn and weary from life
He is rugged but he's got style
The man has got what matters inside

Weary, yes he must get weary but he doesn't say
But you can read between the lines that wind along his face
The man has got his memories that he hides inside his mind
And you can see the sadness in the eyes they hide behind

The man is more than what meets the eye
He is worn and weary from life
He is rugged but he's got style
The man has got what matters inside

Love him, yes i've always loved him and i always will
He holds a place in my heart no one else could ever fill
He's always been my hero, the best friend i've ever had
The man is something special and i'm proud that he's my dad

The man is more than what meets the eye
He is worn and weary from life
He is rugged but he's got style
The man has got what matters inside

It's saturday night and it's a perfect night for dancin'
I've had my makeup off and on all day
But it's gotta be right for a night of sweet romancing
And i've combed my hair at least a thousand ways
Mirror mirror don't you tell a soul
Of how i smiled and talked all day to you
And how i practiced every step i know of
But tonight's the night and i'm a dancing fool
Chorus:

(it's a sure thing) when the sun goes down this evenin'
(it's a sure thing) to be out on the dancing floor
(it's a sure thing) i'll be the last one leavin'
(it's a sure thing) gonna dance till i can't no more

I could of had a date but i thought i'd take my chances
I'm gonna dance with a different guy to every song
Then i'm a gonna wait till the right one strikes my fancy
The he's gonna be the one to dance me home

Repeat chorus twice

I used to stand on a corner when i was a child
And i'd play my guitar and sing as the people went by
The sidewalks were crowded but i'd just sing louder cause i didn't mind
Just spending my time, spinning my rhymes and singing for nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes
I'd brighten their day as they go on their way and they'd brighten mine
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that i held in my mind
I knew that someday in my own special i'd repay all their nickels and dimes

I recall the sidewalk each night as i stand on the stage
As i play my guitar and sing for the people who paid
Cause i finally made it to what they all call the big time
But i still remember i still owe some nickels and dimes

Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that i held in my mind
So if you remember a child on the corner of time
You'll know that i wrote this to repay your nickels and dimes

Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that i held in my mind
So if you remember a child on a corner of time
You'll know that i wrote this to repay your nickels and dimes

Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that i held in my mind
So if you remember a child on a corner of time
You'll know that i wrote this to repay your nickels and dimes

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, what will do i with you gone?
Sitting in my lonely room just staring at the wall
For lack of something else to do i count the tears that fall
Trying to get it through my head you don't care at all
What am i gonna do with you gone?

What does life hold for me anymore?
With you gone what once mattered don't matter no more
You still have the key to my heart and my door
What am i gonna do with you gone, with you gone?

I can hear the lonesome whistle of a passing train
I can feel my heart beat a rhythm with the pouring rain
Realizing that my life won't ever be the same
What am i gonna do with you gone?

Will i ever be happy again?
With you gone my whole world has just come to an end
Will i ever forget you, or will i forget
What am i gonna do with you gone, with you gone?

With you gone, what does life hold for me anymore?
With you gone what once mattered don't matter no more
And you still have the key to my heart and my door
What am i gonna do with you gone, with you gone?

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, what will do i with you gone?
