Well I lost my heart on the day we met But I gained a lot that I don't regret Then I hung around til you said 'I do' Knew I wouldn't have nothin if I didn't have you Well, it changed my thinking when you changed your name Neither one of us will ever be the same And I swear I'm never gonna be untrue Cuz I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you If I didn't have you I'd long ago been left in the dark, out in the cold Blowing around from town to town like a feather in the wind If I didn't have you I know I'd be Floundering around like a ship at sea Lost in the rain or a hurricane, that's where I'd have been But I didn't get lost cuz I saw your light Shining like a beacon on a cold, dark night And the sun came up and the skies turned blue Oh I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you Well, I count my blessings Every night I pray That the lord lets me keep you just one more day Every day he does, cuz God knows too That I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you If I didn't have you I'd long ago been left in the dark, out in the cold Blowing around from town to town like a feather in the wind If I didn't have you I know I'd be Floundering around like a ship at sea Lost in the rain or a hurricane, that's where I'd have been But I didn't get lost cuz I saw your light Shining like a beacon on a cold, dark night And the sun came up and the skies turned blue Oh I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you Well, I've already said it but I swear it's true I wouldn't have nothing if I didn't have you |

Operator please connect me with Nineteen-Eighty Two I need to make apologies for what I didn't do I sure do need to tell her that I thought the whole thing through And now it's clear that she is what - I should have held onto. They say hindsight's 20-20 but I'm nearly goin' blind From starin' at her photograph and wishing she was mine It's that same old lost love story - it's sad but it's true There was a time when she was mine in Nineteen-Eighty-Two. Postman can you sell me - a special kind of stamp One to send a letter from this crazy lonely man Back into the wasted years of my living past I need to tell her, now I know - how long my love will last. They say hindsight's 20-20 but I'm nearly goin' blind From starin' at her photograph and wishing she was mine It's that same old lost love story - it's sad but it's true There was a time when she was mine in Nineteen-Eighty-Two. Losing my mind, going back in time - to Nineteen-Eighty Two. |

Since the day I was led to temptation And in weakness did let your love down I have prayed that with time and compassion You'd come around I keep waiting for you to forgive me And you keep saying you can't even start And I feel like a stone you have picked up and thrown To the hard rock bottom of your heart To the hard rock bottom of your heart Now this home we have built is still standing It's foundation is on solid ground Do we roll up our sleeves and repair it Or burn it down I keep waiting for you to forgive me And you keep saying you can't even start And I feel like a stone you have picked up and thrown To the hard rock bottom of your heart To the hard rock bottom of your heart We can't just block it out We've got to talk it out Until our hearts get back in touch I need your love I miss it I can't go on like this is Hurts too much |

On one hand I count the reasons I could stay with you And hold you close to me, all night long. So many lover's games I could play with you and on that hand I see no reason why it's wrong Chorus: But on the other hand, There's a golden band To remind of someone who would not understand On one hand I could stay and be your loving man But the reason I must go is on the other hand In your arms I feel the passion, I thought had died When I looked into your eyes I found myself When I first kissed your lips I felt so alive I've got to hand it to you girl, you're something else Repeat Chorus |

Dirt road in the twilght, woods so cool and dark. Up ahead pale neon, somewhere a dog barks, Honky-tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me Breaking up the pool balls, chalking up the cues Juke box pumping softly, lazy summer blues Honky-tonk moon, keeps shining on my ba-by and me Through the blue smoky haze, all through the haze Trouble seems to melt away............. My heart's on a roll, I'm easy in my soul There's no hurry, no worry, things are goin' my way My arms around my baby, shufflin' on the floor Cigarettes and saw-dust, squeaky old screen door. Honk- Tonk Moon, keeps shinin on my baby and me. Outside the dark is falling, stars are twinkling bright That old Hoot Owl is calling, every-things all right Honky Tonk Moon, keeps shinin on my baby and me. Honky Tonk Moon, keeps shinin on my baby and me. |

I've walked a million miles across this floor But I never have quite made it to the door I never thought the time would come I'd ever see this day When you could make me feel so thrown away I'm feeling like an old pair of shoes All worn out from walking through these blues There's a hole in my soul And I'm really feeling used I'm just like an old pair of shoes You've always been my one and only, love It ain't no easy thing to give you up Looking back I'm feeling like There's nothing left to lose This time I may just walk out on you cause I'm feeling like an old pair of shoes All worn out from walking through these blues There's a hole in my soul And I'm really feeling used I'm just like an old pair of shoes There's a hole in my soul And I'm really feeling used I'm just like an old pair of shoes |

Suppose I called you up tonight and told you that I loved you And suppose I said "I wanna come back home". And suppose I cried and said "I think I finally learned my lesson" And I'm tired a-spendin' all my time alone. If I told you that I realised you're all I ever wanted And it's killin' me to be so far away. Would you tell me that you loved me too and would we cry together? Or would you simply laugh at me and say: "I told you so, oh I told you so I told you some day you come crawling back and asking me to take you in I told you so, but you had to go Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again". If I got down on my knees and told you I was yours forever Would you get down on yours to and take my hand? Would we get that old time feelin', would we laugh and talk for hours The way we did when our love first began? Would you tell me that you'd missed me too and that you'd been so lonely And you waited for the day that I return. And we'd live in love forever and that I'm your one and only Or would you say the tables finally turned? Would you say: "I told you so, oh I told you so I told you some day you come crawling back and asking me to take you in I told you so, but you had to go Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again". "Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again". |

You've been too gone for too long It's too late to come back now It’s been so long since you walked out my door Now you're just an old song nobody sings any more I've got a new love and she's a true love But darlin' how could you have known You've been too gone too long Now its too late Io come back home You came a long way goin' the wrong way Don't even set your suitcase down You wanted to roam, now you're paying the bill You're an old rolling stone who rolled over the hill Well I had a good cry when you said goodbye I didn't want to let you go But you've been too gone too long Now it’s too late to come back home I had a good cry when you said goodbye I didn't want to let you go But you've been too gone too long So why don't you just stay gone You've been too gone too long Now it’s too late to come back home |

I ain't live forever but i've lived enough and i've learned to be gentle and i've learned to be tough I've found only two things that last to the end One is your heroes and the other your friends Your heroes will help you find good in yourself Your friends won't forsake you for somebody else They'll both stand beside you thru thick and thru thin and that's how it goes with heroes and friends I grew up with cowboys i watched on tv My friends and i sometimes pretended to be Years have gone by but now and again my heart rides the range with my heroes and friends Your heroes will help you find good in yourself Your friends won't forsake you for somebody else They'll both stand beside you thru thick and thru thin and that's how it goes with heroes and friends Your heroes will help you find good in yourself Your friends won't forsake you for somebody else They'll both stand beside you thru thick and thru thin and that's how it goes with heroes and friends that's how it goes with heroes and friends |

Well I've heard those city singers singin 'bout how they can love Deeper than the oceans higher than the stars above Well I come from the country and I know I ain't seen it all But I heard that oceans salty and the stars they sometimes fall But that would not do justice to the way I feel for you So I have to sing this song about all the things I knew My love is deeper that the holler, stronger than the rivers Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill And longer than the song of the Whippoorwill From the backroads to the broadway shows with a million miles between There's a least a million love songs that people love to sing And everyone is different and everyone's the same So this is just another way of sayin' the same thing My love is deeper that the holler, stronger than the rivers Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill And longer than the song of the Whippoorwill My love is deeper that the holler, stronger than the rivers Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill And longer than the song of the Whippoorwill |

A working day to long when everything goes wrong And a boss who don't know I'm alive I once had a notion I'd get that promotion, but now I barley survive A wife to demanding with no understanding Of why I stay dead on my feet A dimly lit tavern a willing young woman Are some of the reasons I cheat The hair that I'm losing and a women who's choosing To lay sound asleep by my side The bills they are mounting thats when I start counting On someone to help sooth my pride A lady that knows me affection she shows me and a smile so easy and sweet The dreams that I've buried the load that I've carried Are some of the reasons I cheat My children keep on growing me age keeps on showing Like all of my old friends I meet So I'm getting older my life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat Yes I'm getting older my life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat |
