Dearest, darlin'
I had to write to say that I won't be home anymore
For something happened to me
As I was driving home
And I'm not the same anymore

Oh, I was only twenty-four hours from Tulsa
Oh, only one day away from your arms

When I said I needed you,
you said you would always stay.
It wasn't me who changed, but you,
and now you've gone away.
Don't you see that now you've gone,
and I'm left here on my own,
then I have to follow you, and beg you to come home.
You don't have to say you love me,

I've been so many places
In my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
I made some bad rhymes

I've acted out my life in stages
Ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now

I tried so hard
All summer through
Not to think too much of you
But the more I try
The more I find
I just can't leave the past behind
Times that are happy
Are times that are few

Show me that smile again
Oh, show me that smile
Don't waste another minute on your cryin'
We're nowhere near the end
We're nowhere near
The best is ready to begin

All in a cloudy daze

Out of nowhere into sight
Out of darkness into light
You come running pushing time
Out of reason
Out of rhyme
Bits and pieces of your past
Cling like shadows to your heels
And your heart is learning fast

Oh, bring him back
If he's too much for you
And you don't know just what to do
Just send him right on back to me
'Cause I'm still the fool I used to be

If it's only just for a day
I'll take him back any old kinda way

I walk where once the grass was green
And mourn the lark that sings no more
What bird could sing whose eyes have seen
Broken blossoms on the field of war?

And as they lie there in the sun
How unimportant now it seems
Just who has lost and who has won

Ah, listen everybody
Especially you guys
Is it right to be left alone
When the one you love is never home?
I love too hard
Yeah, my friends sometimes say
But I believe, oh I believe
That a boy should be loved that way

Come for a dream
Come and love in the sun
Come and stay
Just as long as you may
Sunny love for a day
Sunny love may not stay

Love may be glowing fantasy

Ooh, hoo
Get up in the morning
'Bout a quarter to nine
Get home in the evenin'
Too tired to make time
Give me the lovin'
I've been waiting for all day
You're always a little too tired

Eri il ragazzo di un'altra
E non potevo parlarti
Ma tu sapessi per me
Che 'cause'era vederti e saperti felice
You were another girl's boyfriend
And I couldn't talk to you
But if you knew what it meant to me
To see you and know you were happy

Life never seems to get you down
You always seem so full of fun
Never feel alone
Don't need anyone

I always have to think of you
I need to know how much you care
Wonder where you are

I surround myself with superficial things
Somethin' to toy with
They don't mean a thing
I got my share of secrets
A long time overdue
I got a world inside me
I'd better keep on running to

Trees that grow without ground
Young leaves that fall in spring
Ground hogs tell me play games
My games would reel the world
Ring around the pine tree
Smile a game around the sunsweep
Cry a game across the moonbeam
Across the earthbound gypsy

Well you are
Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes I don't know where I'm goin'
'til I been taken in

You're such an easy evil
Such a promise of fun

Simple dreams and crazy schemes
All can't come true
Hear what I'm saying
My love is with you
This fire between us
If only you might
Give me the night tonight

Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me

I should have known
When I looked into his eyes
He wasn't serious

(Guess who?)
Where's the girl who hurt herself last night?
(Guess who?)
Didn't kiss you and thought she was right
Everyone had told me
Be careful when he holds me
And I was

If we knew a way to go back through time
To the place where love was lost
We could take each other's hand again
And wander back across
But we always seem to end up here
Tryin' not to say goodbye
Baby, we don't have to say the words
Words can sometimes make you cry

And I am your child
Wherever you go
You take me too
Whatever I know
I learned from you
Whatever I do
You taught me to do
I am your child

It isn't the way that you look
And it isn't the way that you talk
It isn't the things that you say or do
Make me want you so

It is nothing to do with the wine
Or the music that's flooding my mind
But never before have I been so sure

I had a talk
With my man last night
He reassured me everything
Was still all right

As the night grew light
My blues got bright
He made me know

I just don’t know what to do with myself
I just don’t know what to do with myself
I’m so used to doing everything with you
Planning everything for two
And now that we’re through

I just don’t know what to do with my time
I’m so lonesome for you, it’s a crime

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never wanna let you go
'cos you started something, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
It happens to be true, I only want to be with you

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I wanna spend each moment of the day with you

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never want to let you go
Cause you started something
Oh can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only want to be with you

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never wanna let you go
'cos you started something, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
It happens to be true, I only want to be with you

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I wanna spend each moment of the day with you

Don't go
There's so much left to tell you
You just don't know how need you
I never said how I cared
Until now that you're leaving
I can't hide what I'm feeling

Please wait, there's so much left to tell you

I'd rather leave while I'm in love
While I still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and I were never meant to end

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken
And usually it's mine

The night we met
The night that I won't forget
You seemed what I'd been waiting for
But baby, I've been wrong before

You held me tight
And everything seemed just right
I couldn't ask for me

(I got a good thing)
I got a good thing
(I got a good thing)
I got a good thing
(I got a good thing)
I got a good thing going

Take the sun and take the moon

If you go away on this summer day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in a summer sky
And our love was new and our hearts were high.

When the day was young, and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the night bird's song

Take your time and tell me
Where you lie
I realise
That we’ve been found out this time

We should stay together
If we can
But what you’ve planned

Where does our love lie?
In the middle of nowhere
Will it soon pass me by?
In the middle of nowhere

Baby, won't you tell me
What am I to do?
I'm in the middle of nowhere

Can't I cry a little bit?
There's nobody to notice it
Can't I cry if I want to?
No one cares
Why can't I pretend
That you'll love me again?
All I had has been taken from me
Now I cry tears that never become me

Ahh-haa
Now, if you're gonna let me down
Let me down easy
So I won't be too hurt
After you've gone, ahh honey

If you're gonna set me down
Set me down easy

It's like looking in the window of a fine boutique
Knowing there is nothing that I could ever buy
Still I want your love so much that I could die
But I just can't lead a double life
Being one man's lover, one man's wife

But you can start a fire raging
Just by touching me

Little by little by little by little by little
Little by little by little by little by little

You're messing up my life
Tearing me apart
Breaking up my world
And I'm giving up my heart
Little by little by little by little

How many tears do you cry
If love should break your heart in two?
How many tears will I cry
Now that I know I'm losing you?

I can't stop wanting you
And no matter what you do
You're still a part of me

Mama said there'll be days like this
There'll be days like this, my mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

Mama said there'll be days like this
There'll be days like this, my mama said

I went walkin' the other day, yeah

Morning please don't come
Surely you see that my lover is sleeping
Morning please don't come
Let the night linger on
When the stars have left the sky
We must say fond goodbye

Make the night a little longer

Dear Lord above
I swear that I
I will never love again
Unless I'm lovin' him
Oh, no, oh, oh, oh

He came to me
With a twinkle in his eye

Mandy's in the papers 'cause she tried to go to Spain
She'll soon be in the dock and in the papers once again
Vicki's got her story about the mirror and the cane
It may be false, it may be true
But nothing has been proved

Stephen's in his dressing-gown now, breakfasting alone
Too sick to eat, he's on his feet and to the telephone

When my friends told me
You had someone new
I didn't believe
A single word was true

I showed them all
I had a-faith in you
I just a-kept on saying

Reste encore un instant
Reste encore, je voudrais te parler
De l'amour que j'ai trouvé cette nuit
Oh yeah
Reste encore un instant
Reste encore, car sans toi
Mon coeur s'ennuie
Chaque fois que tu es loin de moi

She's a great little housewife
Though sometimes she talks like a fool
But she helps at the store in the holiday rush
And she picks up the kids after school
And she puts down the phone when her husband comes home
And she changes from mother to wife
'Til she feels the words hanging between them
And she hangs by her words to her life

Am I just a small town girl
With big town dreams
That won't come true
Thinking everything that means anything to me
Means something to you, too?

Am I just a small town girl?
Hey, big town boy

You brush by me and my whole facade just melts
You seem a bit twisted but that makes me more intrigued
You drag yourself through a maze of alcohol and neon lies
Can't seem to hold on to your love

I'm sick of being submissive when I really want to scream
I know this is just a psychopathic dream
You leave me lying with my head in my hands

Billy-Ray was a Preacher's son,
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along,
When they gathered round and started talking,
Cousin Billy would take me walking,
Through the back yard we'd go walking,
Then he'd look into my eyes,
Lord knows to my suprise:

Billy Ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy'd visit he'd come along

When they gathered round and started talking
That's when Billy would take me walking,
All through the backyard we'd go walking,
Then he'd looked into my eyes,
Lord knows to my surprise

In the cool of the evening
When everything is getting kind of groovy
You call me up and ask me
Would I like to go with you and see a movie?
First I say no, I've got some plans for tonight
And then I stop and say all right
Love is kind of crazy with a spooky little boy like you

It's me, it's me, oh, baby, it's me
Standing in the need of love
It's me, it's me, nobody but me
Standing in the need of love
Oh, standing in the need of love, yeah

It's me, it's me, oh, baby, it's me
Standing in the need of love

Stay awhile, let me hold you
Stay awhile, 'til I've told you, oh, oh
Of the love that I feel tonight, oh yeah

Stay awhile, what's your hurry
Stay awhile, cause I worry, oh
Any time that you're out of sight

The night runs away with the day
The grass that was green is now hay
The world goes around without even a sound
And it looks like the summer is over

The rains tumble down in the sky
Young swallows have learned how to fly
The leaves that were green are no longer so green

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain
Oh, the dark days are done
The bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere
Sunny one so true
I love you

Didn't I make you feel
Like you were the only man?
Didn't I give you everything
A woman possibly can?
But with all the love I give you
It's never enough
I'm gonna show you baby
That a woman can be tough

I've been trying
To make you love me
But everything I try
Just takes you further from me

You don't love me, oh no
So you treat me cruel
But no matter how you hurt me

The look of love
Is in your eyes
The look your heart can't disguise
The look of love
Is saying so much more
Than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away

Billy-Ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they gathered round and started talkin'
That's when Billy would take me walkin'
A-through the back yard we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows to my surprise

Round,
like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel,
Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel,
Like a snowball down a mountain or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's turning running rings around the moon,
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face,
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space,
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind.

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be close to you

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me

Tu che ne sai
Delle volte che ho pianto per te
Un amore non può venir quando un amor è così
Non dirmi più di rifarmi una vita sei tu
Questa sera mi fai morir
Mi fai morir di dolor

What do you know

You can take all the tea in China
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail right round the seven oceans
Drop it straight into the deep blue sea

He's as sweet as Tupelo honey
He's an angel of the first degree
He's as sweet as Tupelo honey

In your sleep you've been talkin'
Callin' every other name but mine
And that's not a very encouraging sign
In my arms, you've been restless
Thinkin' 'bout somebody else while holdin' me
Well, if you want me to set you free
You don't have to ask for my permission
I don't wanna live in a broken home

Willie & Laura Mae Jones
Were our neighbours a long time back
They lived right down the road from us
In a shack just like our shack

The people worked the land together
And we learned to count on each other
When you live off the land

Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreamin' each night of his charms
That won't get you into his arms

So if you're lookin' to find love you can share
All you gotta do is
Hold him and kiss him and love him
And show him that you care

"Wishin' and Hopin'"

Wishin', and hopin', and thinkin', and prayin',
planning and dreamin' each night of his charms.
That won't get you into his arms!

So if your're looking for love you can share!

Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreamin' each night of his charms
That won't get you into his arms
So if you're lookin' to find love you can share
All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and love him
And show him that you care
Show him that you care just for him
And do the things he likes to do

Wishin' and hopin', and thinkin' and praying
Plannin' and dreaming each night of his charms
That won't get you into his arms
So if you're looking for love you can share
All you gotta do is hold him, and kiss him
And love him, and show him that you care
Show him that you care, just for him
Do the things that he likes to do

Spoken : Somehow, it seems the love I knew was always the most destructive kind

Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet
As rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
The way the evening breeze
May tease the candle flame

When I said I needed you,
you said you would always stay.
It wasn't me who changed, but you,
and now you've gone away.
Don't you see that now you've gone,
and I'm left here on my own,
then I have to follow you, and beg you to come home.
You don't have to say you love me,
