Here I stand
all alone
Have my mind
turned to stone
Have my heart
filled up with ice
To avoid
it's breakin' twice
Thanks to you
my dear old friend
But you can't help
this is the end
Of a tale
that wasn't right
I won't have no sleep
tonight
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain
It's alright
we'll stay friends
Trustin'
in my confidence
And let's say
it's just alright
You won't sleep alone
tonight
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain-

With my heart
with my soul
Some guys cry
you bought and sold
They've been strong
young and bold
And they say play
this song again
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain-

Well take me
back down
Where cool water
flows yeah
Let me remember
things I love
Stoppin' at the log
where catfish bite
Walkin' along
the river road
At night
barefoot girls
Dancin' in
the moonlight
I can hear
the bullfrog
Callin' me
wonder if my rope's
Still hangin'
to the tree
Love to kick
my feet way down
The shallow water
shoefly dragonfly
Get back your mother
pick up a flat rock
Skip it across
Green River well-

Up at cody's camp
I spent my days
With flat car
riders and
Cross-tie walkers
old cody junior
Took me over
said you're gonna
Find the world
is smouldrin
And if you get lost
come on home
To Green River
well-

Put your loving
hand out baby
'Cause
I'm beggin'
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
So put your loving
hand out baby
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
So put your loving
hand out darlin'
Riding high
when I was king
I played it
hard and fast
'Cause
I had everything
I walked away
you won me then
But easy come and easy
go and it would end
So anytime I bleed
you let me go
Yah anytime I feed
you get me know
Anytime I seek
you let me know
But I planted that
seed just let me go
I'm on my knees
when I'm beggin'
'Cause I don't wanna
lose you
Hey yeah
ra ta ta ta
'Cause I'm beggin'
beggin' you
Uh put your loving
hand out baby
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
And put your loving
hand out darlin'
I need you
to understand
Tried so hard
to be your man
The kind of man
you want in the end
Only then can I begin
to live again
An empty shell
I used to be
The shadow of my life
was hangin' over me
A broken man
that I don't know
Won't even
stand
The devil's dance
to win my soul
What we doin'
what we chasin'
Why the bottom
why the basement
Why we got good sxxx
don't embrace it
Why the feel for
the need to replace me
You're the wrong way
track from the good
I want to paint
a picture
Tellin'
where we could be at
Like a heart
in the best
Way should
you can give it away
You had it
and you took the pay
But I keep walkin' on
keep openin' doors
Keep hopin' for
now the door is yours
Keep also home
'cause I don't want
To live
in a broken home
Girl I'm beggin'
mmm yeah yeah yeah
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
So put your loving
hand out baby
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
So put your loving
hand out darlin'
I'm fighting hard
to hold my own
Just can't make it
all alone
I'm holding on
I can't fall back
I'm just a calm
'bout to fade to black
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
Put your loving
hand out baby
I'm beggin'
beggin' you
So put your loving
hand out darlin'

Georgia wrap me up
in all your
I want you in my arms
oh let me hold you
I'll never
let you go again
Like I did
oh I used to say
I would never
fall in love again
Until
I found her
I said
I would never fall
Unless
it's you I fall into
I was lost
within the darkness
But then I found her
I found you
Georgia pulled me in
I asked to
Love her once again
you fell I caught you
I'll never
let you go again
Like I did
oh I used to say
I would never
fall in love again
Until
I found her
I said
I would never fall
Unless
it's you I fall into
I was lost
within the darkness
But then I found her
I found you
I would never
fall in love again
Until
I found her
I said
I would never fall
Unless
it's you I fall into
I was lost
within the darkness
But then I found her
I found you

Touch by touch
you're my
all time lover
skin to skin
come on down
my cover-

When I feel the
time is right
and you're
staying by my side
and the love
give to me
makes my heart beat
when my
fantasies fly away
but my
feeling makes me stay
I see the fire
in your eyes
It makes my
heart beat
Do it just do
do it night and day
you're my
all time lover
Do it just do
do it in away
like there is
no other
touch by touch
you're my
all time lover
skin to skin
Come on down my cover-

When my heart is full
of my love
it makes me
a trembling down
Love's the games
that we play
now we make
When our love
is clear and bright
It's our way
to see the light
There's a fire
in our heart
night and day
Do it just do
do it night and day
you're my
all time lover
do it just do
do it in away
like there is
no other
Touch by touch
you're my
all time lover
skin to Skin
Come on down
my cover-

Do it just do
do it night and day
you're my
all time lover
Do it just do
do it in away
like there is
no other
Touch by touch
you're my
all time lover
skin to skin
Come on down my cover
Do it just do
do it night and day
you're my
all time lover
Do it just do
do it in away
like there is
no other
Touch by touch
you're my
all time lover
skin to skin
Come on down my cover-

Same bed
but it feels
Just a little bit
bigger now
Our song
on the radio
But it don't
sound the same
When our friends
talk about you
All it does is
just tear me down
'Cause my heart breaks
a little
When I hear
your name
It all just sounds
like woo hu
Uhm too young too dumb
to realize
That I should've
bought you flowers
And held
your hand
Should've gave you
all my hours
When I had
the chance
Take you
to every party
'Cause all you wanted
to do was dance
Now
my baby's dancin'
But she's dancin'
with another man
My pride
my ego
My needs
and my selfish ways
Caused a good
strong woman like
You to walk
out my life
Now I never
never get to
Clean up the mess
I made oh
And it haunts me
every time
I close
my eyes
It all just sounds
like woo hu
Uhm too young too dumb
to realize
That I should've
bought you flowers
And held
your hand
Should've gave you
all my hours
When I had
the chance
Take you
to every party
'Cause all you wanted
to do was dance
Now
my baby's dancin'
But she's dancin'
with another man
Although it hurts
I'll be the first
To say that
I was wrong
Oh I know I'm probably
much too late
To try and apologize
for my mistakes
But I just want you
to know
I hope
he buys you flowers
I hope
he holds your hand
Give you all his hours
when he has the chance
Take you
to every party
'Cause I remember
how much
You loved
to dance
Do all the things
I should've done
When I was
your man
Do all the things
I should've done
When I was
your man

Wise men say
only fools rush in
But I can't help
falling in
love with you
shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
if I can't help falling
in love with you
Like a river flows
surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Somethings are
meant to be
Take my hand
take my whole life too
For I can't help
falling in
love with you
Like a river flows
surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Somethings are
meant to be
Take my hand take
my whole life too
For I can't help
falling in
love with you
For I can't help
falling in
love with you.

Oh my heart
won't believe
that you have left me
I keep telling myself
that it's true
I can get over anything
you want my love
but I can't get myself
over you
Don't forget to
remember me
and the love that
used to be
I still remember you
I love you in my heart
lies a memory
To tell the stars above
Don't forget to
remember me my love
On my wall lies
a photograph
of you girl- -
though I try to forget
you somehow
You're the mirror
of my soul so take me
out of my whole let me
try to go on living
right now
Don't forget to
remember me
and the love that
used to be
I still remember you
I love you in my heart
lies a memory
To tell the stars above
Don't forget to
remember me
my love.

I can see the pain
living in your eyes
And I know how
hard you try
You deserve to have
so much more
I can feel your hurt
and I sympathize
And I'll never
critisize
All you ever meant
to my life-
I don't want to
let you down
I don't want to
lead you on
I don't want to
hold you back from
Where you might
belong
You would
never ask me why
My heart is
so disguised
I just can't
live a lie anymore
I would- rather
hurt myself
Than to ever
make you cry
There's nothing
left to say
But goodbye
ah- goodbye-
You deserve a chance
at the kind of love
I'm not sure I'm
worthy of
Losing you is painful
for me
I don't want to
let you down
I don't want to
lead you on
I don't want to
hold you back
From where you
might belong
You would never
ask me why
My heart is
so disguised
I just can't
live a lie anymore
I would rather
hurt myself
Than to ever
make you cry
There's nothing
left to say-
But
goodbye-

You would never
ask me why
My hurt is
so disguised
I just can't
live a lie anymore
I would- rather
hurt myself
Than to ever
make you cry
There's nothing
left you try
No it's gonna
hurt us both
There's no other way
than to say goodbye
Uhm----
goodbye-

You're insecure
don't know what for
You're turning heads
when you walk
Through
the door
Don't need make-up
to cover up
Being the way
that you are is enough
Everyone else
in the room can see it
Everyone else
but you
Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile
at the ground
It ain't hard
to tell
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful
If only you saw
what I could see
You'll understand
why I want you
So desperately
right now
I'm looking at you
and I can't believe
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful oh oh
That's what makes
you beautiful
So girl come on
you got it wrong
To prove I'm right
I put it in a song
I don't know why
you're being shy
And
turn away
When I look
into your eyes
Everyone else
in the room can see it
Everyone else
but you
Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile
at the ground
It ain't hard
to tell
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful
If only you saw
what I can see
You'll understand
why I want you
So desperately
right now
I'm looking at you
and I can't believe
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful oh oh
That's what makes
you beautiful

Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile
at the ground
It ain't hard
to tell
(You don't know
oh oh)
You don't know
you're beautiful
Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile
at the ground
It ain't hard
to tell
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful
If only you saw
what I can see
You'll understand
why I want you
So desperately
right now
I'm looking at you
and I can't believe
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful oh oh
That's what makes
you beautiful

An empty street
an empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone
The rooms are
getting smaller
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they
are the days we had
The songs we sang
together oh yeah
And oh my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for a love
that seems so far
So I say
a little prayer
And hope my dreams
will take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you once again
my love
Over seas from
coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you once again
my love
I try to read
I go to work
I'm laughing
with my friends
But I can't stop
to keep myself
From thinking
oh no
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they
are the days we had
The songs we sang
together oh yeah
And oh my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for a love
that seems so far
So I say
a little prayer
And hope my dreams
will take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you once again
my love
Over seas from
coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you once again
to hold you in my arms
To promise you
my love
To tell you
from the heart
You're all
I'm thinking of
I'm reaching
for a love that
Seems so far so so
I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams
will take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you once again
my love
Over seas from
coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you once again
say a little prayer
Dreams will
take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you
once again
Over seas
from coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you
once again my love-

First things first
I'ma say
All the words
inside my head
I'm fired up
and tired of
The way that things
have been oh woo
The way that things
have been oh woo
Second things second
don't you tell me
What you think
that I could be
I'm the one
at the sail
I'm the master
of my sea oh woo
The master
of my sea oh woo
I was broken
from a young age
Taking my sulking
to the masses
Writing my poems
for the few
That look at me
took to me
Shook to me
feeling me
Singing from heartache
from the pain
Taking my message
from the veins
Speaking my lesson
from the brain
Seeing the beauty
through the
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Pain
you break me down
You build me up
believer believer
Pain
oh let the bullets fly
Oh let them
rain
My life my love
my drive it came from
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Third things third
send a prayer
To the ones
up above
All the hate
that you've heard has
Turned your spirit
to a dove oh woo
Your spirit up above
oh woo
I was choking
in the crowd
Building my rain up
in the cloud
Falling like ashes
to the ground
Hoping my feelings
they would drown
But they never did
ever lived
Ebbing
and flowing
Inhibited limited
till it broke open
And rained down
and rained down like
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Pain
you break me down
You build me up
believer believer
Pain
oh let the bullets fly
Oh let them
rain
My life my love
my drive it came from
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Last things last
by the grace
Of the fire
and the flames
You're the face
of the future
The blood in my veins
oh woo
The blood in my veins
oh woo
But they never did
ever lived
Ebbing
and flowing
Inhibited limited
till it broke open
And rained down
and rained down like
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Pain
you break me down
You build me up
believer believer
Pain
oh let the bullets fly
Oh let them
rain
My life my love
my drive it came from
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer

White shirt
now red my bloody nose
Sleeping you're
on your tippy toes
Creeping around
like no one knows
Think
you're so criminal
Bruises on both
my knees for you
Don't say thank you
or please I do
What I want
when I'm wanting to
My soul
so cynical
So you're
a tough guy
Like it really
rough guy
Just can't get
enough guy
Chest always
so puffed guy
I'm that
bad type
Make your mama
sad type
Make your girlfriend
mad type
Might seduce
your dad type
I'm the bad guy duh
I'm the bad guy
I like it
when you take control
Even if you know
that you don't own me
I'll let you
play the role
I'll be
your animal
My mommy likes to sing
along with me
But she won't sing
this song
If she reads
all the lyrics
She'll pity the men
I know
So you're
a tough guy
Like it really
rough guy
Just can't get
enough guy
Chest always
so puffed guy
I'm that
bad type
Make your mama
sad type
Make your girlfriend
mad type
Might seduce
your dad type
I'm the bad guy duh
I'm the bad guy duh
I'm only good at being
bad bad

I like
when you get mad
I guess
I'm pretty glad
That
you're alone
You said
she's scared of me
I mean
I don't see
What she sees
but maybe it's
'Cause I'm wearing
your cologne
I'm a bad guy I'm
I'm I'm a bad guy
Bad guy bad guy
I'm a bad I'm

There is a house
in New Orleans
They call the
rising sun
And it's been the ruin
of many a poor boy
And Go I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my
new blue jeans
My father was
a gamblin' man
Down in
New Orleans
Now the only thing
a gambler needs
Is a suitcase
and a trunk
And the only time
he'll be satisfied
Is when he's all
a drunk

Oh mother
tell your children
Not to do
what I have done
spend your lives
in sin and misery
In the house
of the rising sun
Well I've got one
foot on the platform
The other
foot on the train
I'm going back to
New Orleans
To wear that ball
and chain
Well there is
a house in New Orleans
They call
the rising sun
And It's been the ruin
of many a poor boy
And God I know
I'm one

This romeo is
bleeding
But you can't see
his blood
It's nothing
but some feelings
That this old dog
kicked up
It's been raining
since you left me
Now I'm drowning
in the flood
You see I've always
been a fighter
But without you
I give up
Now I can't
sing a love song
Like the way
it's meant to be
Well I guess I'm not
that good anymore
But baby
that's just me
And I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
I'll be there
Till the stars
don't shine
Till the heavens
burst and the words
Don't rhyme
and I know when
I die you'll be
on my mind
And I'll love you
always
Now your pictures
that you left behind
Are just memories
of a different life
Some that made us
laugh some
That made us cry
one that made
You have to say
goodbye
What I'd give to run
my fingers through
Your hair
touch your lips
To hold you near
when you say
Your prayers try
to understand
I've made mistakes
I'm just a man
When he holds
you close
When he pulls
you near
When he says
the words you've been
Needing to hear
I'll wish
I was him cause those
words are mine
To say to you till the
end of time
That I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
if you told me
To cry for you
I could
If you told me
to die for you
I would
take a look at
My face
there's no price
I won't pay
to say
These words
to you

Well there ain't
no luck
In these loaded dice
but baby if you
Give me just
one more try
We can pack up
our old dreams
And our old lives
we'll find a place
Where the sun still
shines
And I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
I'll be there
Till the stars
don't shine
Till the heavens
burst and the words
Don't rhyme
and I know when
I die you'll be
on my mind
And I'll love you
always always

She's got a smile
that it seems
To me reminds
me of childhood
Memories
where everything
Was fresh as
the bright blue sky
Now and then
when I see her face
She takes me away
to that special place
And if I stared
too long
I'd probably
break down and cry
Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh sweet love
of mine

She's got eyes of
the bluest skies
As if they thought
of rain
I hate to look
into those eyes
And see
an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me
of a warm safe place
Where as a child
I'd hide
And pray
for the thunder
And the rain to
quietly pass me by
Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh sweet love
of mine

Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh
sweet love of mine
Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh
sweet love of mine

Where do we go
where do we go now
Where do we go
woo where do we go
Oh where do we go now
where do we go
Um
where do we go now
Ah
where do we go now
Where do we go ah
where do we go now
Where do we go
where do we go now
Where do we go
where do we go now
No
sweet child
Sweet child
o' mine

Yeah- you are my fire
the one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
But we are two worlds

Tell me why

But a heartache

apart
From the way that

No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside
of me
You are my fire
the one desire
You are you are

Don't wanna hear

I've got a bad case
of loving you-

Take the ribbon
from your hair
Shake it loose and
let it fall
Laying soft upon
my skin
Like the shadows
on the wall
Come and lay down
by my side
Till the early
morning light
All I'm asking
is your time
Help me make it
through the night
I don't care
who's right or wrong
I don't try
to understand
Let the devil
take tomorrow
Lord tonight
I need a friend
Yesterday
is dead and gone
And tomorrow's
out of sight
And it's sad
to be alone
Help me make it
through the night.
I don't care
who's right or wrong
I don't try
to understand
Let the devil
take tomorrow
Lord tonight
I need a friend

(Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah)
How can I say to you
I love somebody new
You were so good
to me always
And when I see
your eyes
I can't go on with lies
it breaks your heart
But I just can't
hide it oh - no-
I,
I've been away too long
Now I just can't go on
I've been away too
I,
I've been away too long
No I can't feel
so strong
I've been away too long
(Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah)
Don't look
that way to me
I hurts you so I see
But I just can't
go on with lie
I gave you all I had no
there is nothing left
I may be wrong
But I'd better go now
oh- no-
I,
I've been away too long
Now I just can't go on
I've been away too
I,
I've been away too long
No I can't feel
so strong
I've been away too long
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
I,
I've been away too long
(Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah).
