Runway four, flight 209
Teardrop falls, we start to climb
This window seat proved a poor choice
It shows the dream that's been destroyed

A little baby starts to cry
Hey, I would too, if not for pride
I owe so much to pride, it's true

3 pears of glasses
3 pears of shades
3 pears of other things, all there in space
3 pears of shoe-less feet,
Dream mindless thoughts
3 pears of wishes for all that you want

That means where you are is where you at

I saw you coming, you saw me
And took off running
Shells in your eye,
What … in disguise
I wonder why you never try
To understand a heart like mine

Oh I didn’t waste any time

Don't look inside
No, don't look there
'Cause you might find
Yourself somewhere

Walkin' 'round
Lost and alone
Without one clue

What I'm looking for is all I need
'Cause what I've wanted most is
Some space between her heart and mine
Which sure ain't no small chore to find.

What I get will lead to what I do
I just hope that's not later than it is soon
Or else all night I'll be up again alright

Soft clouds all drift away
Bright sunshine never stays
Warm afternoons turn rainy,
Dark and cruel.

A candle's glowing light will die
The purest voices often lie
And with love I've found

She's in some honky tonk tonight, I know
She's dancing where the music's loud and lights are low
In a crowded bar she likes to hang around
And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down

So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
Don't let the one I love go there anymore
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key

Come on Christmas
Please take me away
Keep me hidden safe
'Til January's second day
Come on Christmas
Come on Noel

I'll wrap myself up in the cheer

Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud, loud music
It's the only kind of life you'll ever understand
Oh, dim lights, thick smoke and loud, loud music
You'll never make a wife to a home-loving man
At home eight little children mean nothing to you
A house filled with love or a husband that's true
You'd rather have a drink with the first guy you meet
And the only home you know, that club down the street

Hey, when c.c. rider was just a snot-nosed kid
I was already known for doin' what i did
The women all screamed as i walked by
My daddy would curse me

And my momma'd start to cry
'Cause i was known yeah for doin' what i did
My reputation was strong, hey for doing what i did

I'd been building hopes so long
Honey, I must have lost sight of what went wrong
'Cause in sorrow's blinding light today
Baby, it looks like my dreams were made of clay

Years of yearning spent for you
Honey, I know now were the cravings of a fool
I guess your wants just slipped away

Maybe someday I'll be strong
Maybe it won't be long
I'll be the one who's tough
You'll be the one who's got it rough
It won't be long and
Maybe I'll be real strong

Maybe I'll do things right

Girl, you taught me how to hurt real bad
And cry myself to sleep
And showed me how this town can shatter dreams
Another lesson 'bout a naive fool
Who came to Babylon
And found out that the pie
Don't taste so sweet

Girl you taught me how to hurt real bad and cry myself to sleep
You showed me how this town can shatter dreams
Another lesson about a naive fool that came to Babylon
And found out that the pie don't taste so sweet

Chorus:
Now it's guitars, Cadillacs and hillbilly music
And lonely, lonely streets that I call home

Hold on, hold on, hold on to God
And not the ways of the world
Hold on, hold on and put your trust
In His everlasting word

Hold on, hold on, hold on to God
In this life's storm tossed sea
Cling to Jesus, His lifeline

Chorus:
Well I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old juke box
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone singing
Hey, hey, mama can your daddy come home

Now I'm living wild and dangerously
But I've got plenty of company

I've had to buy back damn near everything I own
From a little man whose name is Saul
And has a lot of money to loan
I drive a beat up '67 Chevrolet
With a torn up seat
That pokes a brand new hole in my back near every day
I got a letter from the folks over at Bell
Just to let me know for my next phone call

I wanna love again, feel young again
The way we did when it was true
Go back before I cried, or ever tried
To understand life without you

I wanna hold your hand and thus pretend
We're starting out brand new
I wanna love again, feel young again

Here I sit all alone
Just a wonderin' why
You must have slipped out
While I was high
I know just how it feels
And I'm not blamin' you
Cause if I had to choice
I'd avoid me too

It’s never alright.
It comes and it goes.
Oh it’s always around,
Even when it don’t show.

They say it gets better.
Well I guess that it might.
But even when it’s better,

As you look into my eyes
and tell those empty lies
I'll pretend they're true
'Cause that's what I do

As you sit and hold my hand
And smile at other men
I'll pretend I'm blind

"Little Sister"
(originally by Elvis Presley)

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that's it nice and then you run
Yeah yeah, little sister don't you do what your big sister done

I've got a long way to go before I get there
I've got a lot of field to hoe with the sun so high
I've got a lot of miles to roll
And the next few only show
That there is still such a long way to go

Dreamin' is only dreamin'
Till dreamin' is the only thing that 's true

Baby, I couldn't hide
No matter how hard I tried
Was foolish to have begun
To believe I'd ever outrun

And honey I had no call
To try and escape at all
'Cause by the time I got free

I am a missing heart
With no place left to start
To ever find my way
Around these empty parts
Oh I'm a missing heart

I am an open wound
In need of time and room

DWIGHT YOAKAM LYRICS
"My Heart Skips A Beat"
(originally by Buck Owens)

Oh, my heart skips a beat as we walk down the street
I feel a trembling in my knees
And just to know you're mine until the end of time
Makes my heart skip a beat

One more night and I know
That'll be over you
One more night and I know
That the worst is through
And if I can make this heart
Just believe it too
Then one more night and I know
That I'll be over you

Please, please baby come back home
It's so cold and dark here all alone
If you come back I promise I'll be good
If you come home, baby, I'll act like I should
I laughed when you packed your bags and told me goodbye
I hollered, I don't need you, oh but honey, that's a lie
Please, please baby, baby come back home
It's so cold and dark here all alone

I never really believed in
Somethin’ said with a word
At least I never trusted what I was told or ever heard

I never really believed in
Somethin’ said with a word
At least I never trusted what I was told or ever heard

Stop the world and let me off
I'm tired of goin' 'round n' 'round
I played the game of love and lost
So, stop the world and let me off.

My dreams are shattered don't you see
Now you no longer care for me
I miss the wonder of your kiss

When you give it up for gone
But you're still digging in the mind
And your staring out the window
Saying everything will be just fine
Keepin' with whole affair
Every word seems out of line
No matter what angle you get
It's polished till it shines

They say this drinkin' will kill me
I don't know, oh Lord, it might be true
If I stop I'll just die from your leavin'
So either way that I go, it's 'cause of you

Chorus:
Death can come from this broken heart
Or it can come from this bottle

This time
Is the last time
That'll I'll ever call her name, yeah
This time
Is the last time
That'll I'll ever play her game
And this time
Is the last time

I've been trying for so long
And this trying just goes on
As I keep trying to hold on
To my heart
To my heart

I've been waiting here for you
And that waiting still ain't through

If I had a waterfall
We wouldn't wonder, not at all
How much fun each day was gonna be

If I had a mountain top
I know we would never stop
Climbing way high up to look and see
