1. _ Long Stretch Of Lonesome
(gary scruggs)
Never mind the struggle
Never mind these tears i cry
Through it all i will stay humble
As i keep a watchful eye
For that sweeter change of fortune
That's closer now than it's been
Where the memories that haunt me
Are gonna someday be my friend
When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end
On some crazy river
But i still have control
And i will not surrender
I'll stay true to heart and soul
There's a sea of love awaiting
Down at the river's end
There i'll drown my sorrows
And there i'll live again
When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end
When that long stretch of lonesome finally comes to an end
My heart belonging to someone
It'll never be longing again
And the shadows that have dogged me since i can't remember when
Finally give quarter
To the sunlight on my skin
When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end
And the shadows that have dogged me since i can't remember when
Finally give quarter to the sunlight on my skin
When that long stretch of lonesome
When that long stretch of lonesome
When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end

2. _ To Have You Back Again
(annie roboff/arnie roman)
Love, love's a chameleon.
Makes one-in-a-million feel like to much of the same.
But leave, leave it behind you.
And love will remind you.
It was only you that changed.
Oh i'd give all my dreams.
Give up my home and everything i've ever known to have you back again.
To have you back again, to have you back again.
I'd stand in the rain, no place to hide.
Drown in my shame, swallow my pride.
To have you back again, to have you back again.
Time, time is a river.
Flowing forever, away from the sound of your heart.
Only you can break this silence, whisper forgiveness.
Let me back in your arms again.
Oh i'd give all my dreams.
Give up my home and everything i've ever known to have you back again.
To have you back again, to have you back again.
I'd stand in the rain, no place to hide.
Drown in my shame, swallow my pride.
To have you back again, to have you back again.
And i know i never loved you like you needed to be loved.
But i know that i could learn to if we both had faith enough.
Oh i'd give all my dreams.
Give up my home and everything i've ever known to have you back again.
To have you back again, to have you back again.
I'd stand in the rain, no place to hide.
Drown in my shame, swallow my pride.
To have you back again, to have you back again.

3. _ Where I'm Bound
(daryl burgess/tom britt)
Can you hear it cross the valley
Can you hear that mournful sound
I'm riding rails of silver
Going to where i'm bound
High above the fields of clover
On a lazy, hot july
When i get to where i'm going
I'll hold my head up high
I will roll across these mountains
I will take the last train out
Riding rails of silver
Going to where i'm bound
Roses, dust and ashes
Throw them where i lay
And if by chance you see me
There'll be no sorrow on my face
For i will see the beauty
I only wish that you could see
I'll leave my body weakened
I'll leave my soul to wander free, so free
So if you should see a diamond
Fall down from the sky
Its just a teardrop
From the corner of my eye
As good-bye, as i fly
To where i'm bound

4. _ You Don't Seem To Miss Me
(jim lauderdale)
It's a long way off from where i should be goin'
And everytime, i hate to leave your side
But now when i return, there's somethin' missin'.
When i'm gone you don't seem to miss me.
Now life's so fast and everything is changing'
And if your changing too, then i don't blame you.
I remember how you used to kiss me,
But when i'm gone you don't seem to miss me.
I'm going back, i wonder why,
I'm runnin' fast to get home.
I just can't wait to see your face but
You don't seem to miss me.
No one can take away the things you've given,
And all the good we've had alone together
There was a time when you could not resist me.
Now i'm gone and you don't seem to miss me.
I'm going back, i wonder why,
I'm runnin' fast to get home.
I just can't wait to see your face but
You don't seem to miss me.
I can't wait to see your face
But you don't seem to miss me.

5. _ Like Water Into Wine
(gretchen peters)
Baby open up that bottle
Come and lay down by my side
I don't have no special reason
Just this ache i feel inside
I wanna lose my inhibitions
I wanna lose those words we said
I wanna drink my fill of you babe
Let it go right to my head
Tonight i want to hold you
I wanna look into your eyes
I wanna watch these broken dreams
Turn into memories
Just like water baby
Just like water into wine
Don't wanna think about tomorrow
Don't wanna count my last regrets
I can't hate you anymore babe
I can't love you any less
Sometimes i've been ungrateful
Sometimes you've been unkind
But all the pain and sorrow
And all the bitter tears
They're just water baby
Just water into wine
So baby open up that bottle
Come and lay down by my side
I can't think of one good reason
We should not be satisfied
Jesus walked upon the water
Healed the sick, the lame the blind
We are miracles of science
We are accidents divine
We're just like water baby
Like water into wine

6. _ High On Love
(jeff hanna/kostas)
High on love
And i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
Don't you know, i'm high on love
Since you've come around
And i ain't comin' down
Took a long time for me to believe
But i finally got a reprieve
From loneliness, emptiness
And wasting my time
I got lucky one fine day
Heaven must've sent your love my way
And ever since
I've been riding on cloud nine
High on love
And i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
High on love
It's the same old world turning round and around
My feet ain't touching the ground
Up in the sky without a care
Just a couple of angels going nowhere
High on love
And i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
Keep on gettin' me high on love
Since you've come around
And i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down
No, no, no, high on love
No, i ain't comin' down
No, i ain't comin' down

7. _ That's Exactly What I Mean
(kim richey/tia sillers)
I feel a cold snap comin'
Frost on the window pane
Trees are green, bees are hummin'
But i'm freezing just the same
Can't put my finger on it
Where did we lose the flame
We'll both end up broken-hearted
If e don't find that fire again
Lately we've been missin' something
And love is wearing at the seams
And you say baby, awe, it ain't nothing
And that's exactly what i mean
Come every winter season
Most birds they fly away
It's warm down south, they got no reason
Why they should want t stay
When we take love for granted
We wind up empty handed
Love is wearing at the seams
And you say baby, awe, it ain't nothing
And that's exactly what i mean
Baby, turn off the tv
Come here and hold me tight
A little heat is all that we need
To bring love back to life
Maybe we've been missin' something
And love is wearing at the seams
And you say baby, awe, it ain't nothing
And that's exactly what i mean
Oh, that's exactly what i mean

8. _ I Don't Want To Feel Like That
(terry radigan/don schlitz)
Cried myself to sleep last night
And i don't want to feel like that no more
Woke up before the morning light
And i don't want to feel like that no more
I couldn't think one thought that didn't start with your name
I couldn't see one day that wasn't more of the same
And i don't want to feel like that
I don't want to feel like that no more
I don't want to feel like that
I said i had to get it off my chest
I don't want to play that game no more
I could've lied a little more or less
But i don't want to play that game no more
If you're not willing to hear what i have to say
It's too late 'cause now i've said it anyway
And i don't want to feel like that
I don't want to feel like that no more
I don't want to feel like my life's hanging by a string
I don't want to feel like i ain't feeling anything
I cried myself to sleep last night
And i don't want to feel like that no more
I said a prayer with all my might
Said i don't want to feel like this no more
Got myself in this mess, i can get myself out
Starting right here and i'm starting right now
'cause i don't want to feel like that
I don't want to feel like that no more
I don't want to feel like that
I don't want to feel like that
I don't want to feel like that no more
I don't want to feel like that no more

9. _ Too Many Memories
(turner stephen bruton)
I remember this town with a love by my side
And a peace seldom felt in this day and time
And it gets melancholy every now and again
When you let your mind go and it drifts way back when
Life plays it's tricks, some cruel but fair
And even a fool can pretend they don't care
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
Once a future so bright now seems so distant and cold
And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
There are those moments and they just never fade
The look in his eyes and the way the light played
God moved in that moment and the angels all cried
And they gave you a memory that you have till you die
And the lessons you learn and you don't forget
What makes you grow old is replacing hope with regret
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
Once a future so bright now seems so distant and cold
And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
Once a future so bright now seems so distant and cold
And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold

10. _ The Party Ain't Over Yet
(john david)
There's a troubled wind a blowin' through my crazy life
I feel the chill begin, it's gonna be a long, long, long night
I hear the thunder roll but i don't fear the lightning strike
'cause deep inside i know i'm gonna make it through alright
So let the walls come tumblin' down
Bring on the last sunset
I ain't moving to heartbreak town
The party ain't over yet
Yeah, let the devil do his worst
But don't take any bets
That life has finally quenched my thirst
The party ain't over yet
Not yet
Every drop of rain that ever fell into my life
Helps me ride this pain, they were a blessin'
In disguise
And i know in time this'll soon be yesterday
Nothin' i can't climb, i've got the will to find the way
So let the walls come tumblin' down
Bring on the last sunset
I ain't moving to heartbreak town
The party ain't over yet
Yeah, let the devil do his worst
But don't take any bets
That life has finally quenched my thirst
The party ain't over yet
Not yet
So when the morning comes
I'll do more than just survive
I'll walk into the sun and live until i die
So let the walls come tumblin' down
Bring on the last sunset
I ain't moving to heartbreak town
The party ain't over yet
Yeah, let the devil do his worst
But don't take any bets
That life has finally quenched my thirst
The party ain't over yet
Not yet
Hey, hey, the party ain't over yet
No, no, the party ain't over yet
