I can't stop, can't stop rockin'... The whole thing started 1963 Young girls screamin' Black and white T.V. I was so ready, for something to set me free Those four boys from England, singin' right to me That night I had a dream, of a rock 'n' roll band Everyone said no, no, no. I said yeah, yeah, yeah I can't stop, can't stop rockin'... Never really fit in Couldn't quite be cool Got my ass kicked up and down the halls of my high school When things got too crazy When life got too cruel I would just remember the boys from Liverpool When I was lost, they were there to hold my hand When everyone said no, no, no. They said yeah, yeah, yeah I can't stop, can't stop rockin'... |

I was with you, you were alone
Now I'm standing here Wisdom came only after you'd gone Now I'm starting all over, with a tear in my eye I just never thought you'd disappear In the night your spirit arises With it comes the pain I hope I'm dreaming cus it hurts so bad When I reach out for you, I'm alone in some room I just never thought you'd disappear I still love you like a child Wasn't that good enough? I still want you, it drive me wild The pain is just too much Maybe I've lost enough Time heals all, so they say, I don't know Sometimes nothing's clear Maybe someday I'll understand But I know for a start There's a place in my hear that is yours And it won't disappear I still love you like a child Wasn't that good enough? I still want you, It drives me wild The pain is just too much I still love you |

Building The Bridge
Father to son, husband to wife Brother to brother, black man to white Living together, falling apart Looking for the common ground in every human heart It all comes down to the two of us Yeah this is where we start We are building the bridge One small stone at a time With a lot of love And some help from above From your heart to mine There's a land of justice, cities filled with pride A mountain of hope, just on the other side Across a river of indifference, and a valley of despair There's a tower of courage, piercing through the air I have a dream for our children, I want to take them there And we are building the bridge One small stone at a time With a lot of love And some help from above From your heart to mine As we seek out understanding As we learn to forgive When we open up our minds When our words are true and kind We are building the bridge |

I can't kiss the telephone, I can't hug your picture
And these postcards just remind me how far away you are There's two thousand miles of highway lyin' between us But the way I feel tonight it doesn't seem like all that far `Cus when I get home I know the first thing we're gonna do When I get home I'm gonna turn my body loose on you It's been so long, I've been so true I want you when I get home If I could I'd order you for breakfast every morning There'd be a headline story about you in my USA Today Every in-flight movie'd feature you and all your glory And into your friendly skies, this airplane would carry me away `Cus when I get home I know the first thing we're gonna do... Now you could move and leave no forwarding address You could be living on the moon But I know just where you are, I don't have to guess You're waiting up for me and praying that I'll be home safe and soon `Cus when I get home I know the first thing we're gonna do... |

I thought I had all I could ask for
Only a fool would think there was more I would never have believed That anything could feel brand new Then I met you I'd been around the world, and then some Anything I wanted I could get some But I had not been anywhere I could not share the things I knew Then I met you Ooh then I met you I never thought I would ever say That I need you the way I do But then I never felt what I'm feeling today I just never knew, then I met you I've heard my songs over the radio They follow me wherever I go I wold listen to my own words And wonder why they'd never ring quite true Then I met you...and I knew |

I know she's sleeping with him But it can't be true She loves me too much That's just something she wouldn't do Now you may say I look the other way You may think I'm blind But I say don't go looking for what you don't want to find Wouldn't I be the one that you'd come running to Wouldn't they be my arms I look into your eyes as you tenderly hold me So safe and secure, oh how I wish I were I know she's sleeping with him But it can't be true... I say to myself, I've given all I can I tell myself this game must end But in the mirror do I see a new man Or will I look the other way again? I know she's sleeping with him But it can't be true... I know it, you know it, everybody knows it I can't look the other way I won't look the other way again |

After Tonight
Staring up at the moonlight Looking up at the stars I'm alone and I just want to be with you But I don't know where you are Maybe I took you for granted So blind, I let your love slip away Now I'm missing you so much I can't stand it Please believe me when I say, After tonight, I never will be the same again This time I'm sure that nothing means more Than giving you all the love I can After tonight I promise, I'm gonna be a better man Just hold me tight, and I'll be all right After tonight Anticipating the moment When I can make love with you again Patience is a virtue I'm finding Very hard to understand After tonight, I will never be the same again This time I'm sure that nothing means more Than giving you all the love I can After tonight I promise, I'm gonna be a better man Just hold me tight, and I'll be all right After tonight |

Hey, wait a minute Something just ain't right Hey, wait a minute
Something's just not fair I was supposed to win the lottery I'm supposed to be a millionaire I'm supposed to be a worldwide tourist With lots of equity and life insurance Yes I'm supposed to be a gold card member Rubbin' elbows with the big time spenders I'm supposed to be a wealthy man But all I've got are blistered hands Hey, wait a minute! Hey, wait a minute There's got to be a better way I'm workin' twice as hard but gettin' no richer Than I was yesterday I'm supposed to drive a big Mercedes Live in a mansion full of naked ladies I'm supposed to own my own casino Be a superstar like Sammy, Frank and Dino Some day I'm gonna be a big success And tell my boss to kiss my ass Hey, wait a minute Something must be wrong I'm supposed to be dining on caviar And drinking Dom Perignon Yes I'm supposed to have open invitations To classy country clubs all across the nation Yes I'm supposed to have jewelry and diamonds And a fifty foot yacht I can sail around the islands I'm supposed to be so carefree But all I've got is misery Hey, wait a minute Something's just not right |

Found myself heading down toward Springfield
The last sign said it was twelve miles west It's gettin' hard to see through the salt on my windshield But it looks like I'm gonna make it before the sun sets The morning I arrived was Lincoln's birthday So I walked through his house and saw his tomb I decided that a tour through the Civil War Memorial Museum would be a drag I was tired of seeing monuments about other men's doom Now I don't want you people to think that all there is around Springfield Illinois Are landmarks telling `bout the good old Lincoln years Cus just north of town I saw a sign that said the Illinois Opry is open tonight And the sweet sound of country music filled my ears And I want to be a star in the Illinois Opry now The people in the country certainly know how to play It may be a while before I'm ready But I'm gonna be up on that stage someday I could easily write a whole song about the licks that guitar man was pickin' I could go on for hours `bout the old boy on pedal steel But I'm not singing `bout people who were just playin' music I'm singing about how fine their music made me feel There's a lot of people who have taken years of lessons Trying to learn how to make their music fit the trend But the simple folks at the Opry have got somethin' special And I think that we all could use a lesson or two from them And I want to be a star in the Illinois Opry now The people in the country certainly know how to play It maybe a while before I'm ready But I'm gonna be up on that stage someday |
