I'm waiting on the green light to make you mine
But your heart's just taking it's own sweet time You want to be sure if you'll sink or swim Well, grab a hold of me and just jump on in You're playing it safe But baby I'll wait chorus: Ooh, whenever you're ready I could be yours in a second or so Ooh, baby come and get me My heart's sitting on go Ooh, I'm off to the races All you've gotta do is let me know Ooh, I'm ready and waiting My heart's sitting on go You oughta give in now instead of resisting 'Cause I'm not above a little arm twisting I'm betting it's only a matter of time Before you and me are standing at the finish line You're having your doubts But you'll come around (repeat chorus) You're playin' it safe But baby I'll wait (repeat chorus) |

Out on the porch swing
Like some old painting He seems like he don't move at all And somewhere a bell rings And he's just remembering The last time that she ever called He picks up the phone And he says to the dial tone Chorus: It's still life without you And I still hold on What it feels like You can't go by that It's still life...still life without you The chances were given To get on with livin' The truth is that he never tried And no one ever sees him Most folks don't even Remember which one of 'em died But he still denies it... He closes his eyes and... REPEAT CHORUS Oh, still life...still life without you Out on the porch swing Like some old painting He seems like he don't move at all |

I made a promise to myself
Never again To get burned by someone else Until you walked in I felt the old magig again I felt the room startin' to spin As my will came tumbling down Chorus: I can't help it if I'm blindhearted Fallin again I can't help it if my life has started Slowly cavin in And I keep on holin out for Oh, I guess I'm just a blindhearted fool I've got to find a way to live On my own I need to find someone who'll give Me love that's strong It's like a race against time Until your face enters my mind And you still Burn me to the ground (repeat chorus) Tell everyone to gather 'round They won't believe the view They're lookin at a blindhearted fool Over you |

I've got a four leaf clover
I hung a horseshoe on the wall I threw salt over my left shoulder I'll try anything at all To get lucky with you I want you so much Until you want me too I ain't gonna give up Chorus: I'll throw another nickel in the well Tell myself this time maybe it'll help To make my dreams come true I'll make another wish upon a star Just in case you're out in your backyard Lookin' up there too With a lot of love and a little luck You'll fall like I fell I'll just cross my fingers And throw another nickel in the well If I could get Houdini To teach me a trick or two Then maybe you would see me In the way I want you to Gonna knock on wood It ain't been easy I've done everything I could To make you need me REPEAT CHORUS With a lot of love and a little luck You'll fall like I fell I'll just cross my fingers And throw another nickel in the well Yeah, just cross my fingers And throw another nickel in the well |

We agreed that it was over
Now the lines have all been drawn The vows we made began to fade But now they're gone Put your pictures in a shoebox And my gold ring in a drawer I'm not supposed to love you anymore Now Sherri says she's jealous Of this freedom that I've found If she were me she would be Out on the town And she says she can't imagine What on Earth I'm waiting for I'm not supposed to love you anymore Chorus: Oh I shouldn't care or wonder where and how you are But I can't hide this hurt inside my broken heart I'm fighting back emotions that I've never fought before 'Cause I'm not supposed to love you anymore Now I'm writing you this letter And it's killing me tonight That I agreed when you believed it wasn't right And I couldn't sleep up on the bed So I'm down here on the floor Where I'm not supposed to love you anymore Chorus I'm fighting back emotions that I've never fought before 'Cause I'm not supposed to love you anymore |

Straight out of some story
You walked in, in all your glory I thought you were perfect for me I was out of my mind Looked like I was winning It was the best love I'd ever been in Just when we were beginning The end--you left me behind And I was looking forward to a happy ending So much for pretending I should have known better Than to think of happy ever After--you and me together I was out of my league I kept my heart hidden And now I'm wishing that I didn't Oh who am I kidding You weren't even intrigued And I was looking forward to a happy ending So much for pretending It could have been beautiful If I'd only met you If I'd only let you know What you meant to me And if I could I would Give you a demonstration Of how my imagination Thought it ought to be So much for pretending Ooh yeah, pretending...pretending So much for pretending |

I can't believe that I've found you
Fate did a number on me If you end up with my arms around you It's meant to be Well maybe my crazy is showing But maybe I'm hooked on your touch But wherever my life is going There ain't no rush... 'cause Chorus: Wherever you're going I'd like to go too If you don't have anything better to do I'd love to spend some more time together So what are you doing between now and forever? I'll take the blue with the gray days I just pray the road will be long 'Cause if I'm beside you there's no way I can go wrong (chorus) I'd love to spend some more time together So what are you doing between now and forever? What are you doing between now and forever? |

Tommy still drives that ol' pickup truck
He had back in high school He says he won't trade it in 'Cause they don't make 'em like they used to His wife Donna's got a picture of Elvis By the clock in the kitchen Her hair and clothes come back in style Every now and then They made a promise on their wedding day Nothin's gonna take this feeling away Chorus: Let the world turn Let the years drift by The fire will burn In their hearts just as bright Time may take its toll But their love won't grow old And if they live to be a hundred and one They're still gonna die young Tommy spent years fixin' wheels and brakes At the Texaco on the highway Donna kept the kids and did permanent waves At the beauty shop on Fridays It's been forty years but who'd ever know By the way they carry on Just the same two kids as much in love As the day they married on They made a promise on their wedding day Nothin's gonna take this feeling away (REPEAT CHORUS) Gonna die young (repeat three times) They're still gonna die young... |

I'd be fooling myself, thinkin' I've got it made
I just can't assume true love won't fade I'll keep on listenin' to her, say I'm glad that I found her Keep on showin' her how much my world turns around her 'Cause... Chorus: On any given night She could walk away She won't be mine for the takin' And that's the price that I'd pay 'Cause love's ever-changin' And in the blink of an eye Teardrops could fall And I could lose it all On any given night She's the sensitive kind, she needs a connection And I cannot be so blind to lose my direction I'll keep on walkin' that mile, show her how far I'll go Keep on letting her hear all she needs to know (REPEAT CHORUS) Teardrops could fall And I could lose it all On any given night |

I used to sing to her
It used to make her smile She knew all the words For a while I sang love me tender Always and forever Hold me baby all night long I could go on and on But that's another song We used to go for walks On a country road like this It's funny all the small Things you miss Like puttin' pennies on a train track The way you brushed your hair back The sun on your face I wish I were there today But that's another place Oh, the way I used to hold her The things I should've told her If I could make the clock unwind Back to when she was mine But that's another time (repeat chorus) I could go on and on But that's another song |
