I mistook the warnings for wisdom
From so called friends quick to advise
Though your touch was telling me otherwise
Somehow I saw you as a weakness
I thought I had to be strong
Oh but I was just young, I was scared, I was wrong

Not a night goes by

Listen Baby...

Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no valley low
Ain't no river wide enough baby

If you need me call me
no matter where you are

The turkey in our radar range has roamed too far from home
We mailed our Christmas wishes in, now Santa`s on his own
Momma wants some tupperware, Daddy wants a Stetson
There`s snow on all the prickly pear, the winter round-up`s done
It`s sleepytime for cowgirls, the night has just begun
And that ol` Lone Star shines bright down on every Texan

It`s Christmastime in Texas

The moon is full and my arms are empty
All night long I’ve pleaded and cried
You always said the day that you would leave me
Would be a cold day in July

Your bags are packed not a word is spoken
I guess we said everything with good-bye
Time moves so slow and promises get broken

I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly

I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of bluebonnets
In a blanket made of stars

When the calls and conversations
Accidents and accusations
Messages and misperceptions
Paralyze my mind

Busses, cars, and airplanes leaving
Burning fumes of gasoline
And everyone is running

Mary Anne And Wanda Were The Best Of Friends
All Through Their High School Days
Both Members Of The 4H Club
Both Active In The FFA
After Graduation Mary Anne Went Out Lookin'
For A Bright New World
Wanda Looked All Around This Town
And All She Found Was Earl

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4H Club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin'
for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town
and all she found was Earl

Hole in my head - Hole in my head
I need a boy like you - like a hole in my head
I need a boy like you - like a hole in my head
Lets just say we will and then dont instead

Wild goose chase - Wild goose chase
Youre gonna take me boy - on a wild goose chase
Youre gonna take me boy - on a wild goose chase

I made a promise to myself
Locked it way deep down inside
Told my heart we'd wait it out;
Swore we'd never compromise
Oh I'd rather be alone
Like I am tonight
I'd settle for the kind of love
That fades before the morning light

Times Are Hard And Rents Are High
What Can A Working Girl Do
But Struggle Through Another Day
Then I'll Take Care Of You

Nights Are Long And Dreams Are Cold
If They're All You Wake Up To
But Should You Rise With Crying Eyes

I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well, the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides

Daddy sits on a front porch swinging
Looking out on a vacant field
Used to be filled with burley tbacca
Now he knows it never will
My brothers found work in indiana
M sisters a nurse at the old folks home
Mama still cooking too much for supper
And me Ive been a long time gone

If you could see me now
The one who said that she'd rather roam
The one who said, she'd rather be alone
If you could only see me now

If I could hold you now
Just for a moment if I could really make you mine
Just for a while turn back the hands of time

They didn't have you where I come from
Never knew the best was yet to come
Life began when I saw your face
And I hear your laugh like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved

I'm so close to you baby
But I'm so far away
There's a silence between us
And there's so much to say
You're my strength, you're my weakness
You're my faith, you're my doubt
We gotta meet in the middle
To work this thing out

Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting

I'm through, with doubt,
There's nothing left for me to figure out,
I've paid a price, and i'll keep paying

I should go out tonight
And get on with my life
Break these chains of solitude
A little luck and a little help
I might even find myself
In the arms of someone new

But, once you've loved somebody

When the train rolls by
I'm gonna be ready this time
When the boy gets that look in his eye
I'm gonna be ready this time
When my momma says I look good in white
I'm gonna be ready this time

Oh yeah

He pushed me 'round
now I'm drawin' the line
He lived his life
now I'm gonna go live mine
I'm sick of wastin' my time
Well now I've been good for way too long
Found my red dress and I'm gonna throw it on
'Bout to get too far gone

It was about five til' five on Friday
We were all getting ready to go
And the boss man started screaming
And his veins began to show
He said "You and you come with me
'Cause you're gonna have to stay"
My heart was thumping I was jumping
I had to get away

My friends from high school
Married their high school boyfriends
Moved into houses in the same ZIP codes
Where their parents live

But I, I could never follow
No I, I could never follow

В радугах нету никакого секрета,
Хоть о них много поют.

I wished I was smarter
I wished I was stronger
I wished I loved Jesus
The way the my wife does
I wished it'd been easier
Instead of any longer
I wished I could've stood
Where you would've been proud

Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low

Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low

Who doesn't know what I'm talking about
Who's never left home, who's never struck out
To find a dream and a life of their own
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone

Many precede and many will follow
A young girl's dreams no longer hollow
It takes the shape of a place out west

I need love, love to ease my mind
I need to find, find someone to call mine
But mama said, you can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait

She said, love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take
I can't hurry love, no, you'll just have to wait

i can't find a reason to let go
even though you've found a new love
and she's what your dreams are made of
i can't find a reason to hang on
what went wrong can be forgiven
without you it ain't worth living alone
