You packed in the morning
I stared out the window And I struggled for something to say You left in the rain without closing the door I didn't stand in your way Now I miss you more Than I missed you before And now where I'll find comfort, God knows 'Cause you left me Just when I needed you most Yes, you left me Just when I needed you most Now most every morning I stare out the window I think about where you might be I've written you letters that I'd like to send If you would just send one to me 'Cause I need you more Than I needed before And now where I'll find comfort, God knows 'Cause you left me Just when I needed you most Yes, you left me Just when I needed you most You packed in the morning I stared out the window And I struggled for something to say You left in the rain without closing the door I didn't stand in your way Now I love you more Than I loved you before And now where I'll find comfort, God knows 'Cause you left me Just when I needed you most You left me Just when I needed you most Oh, you left me Just when I needed you most |

My baby makes me proud
Lord, don't he make me proud He never makes a scene Hangin' all over me in a crowd 'Cause people like to talk Lord, don't they love to talk But when they turn out the lights I know he'll be leavin' with me Chorus: And when we get behind closed doors Then we let out hair hang down Then he makes me glad that he's my man And no one knows what goes on behind closed doors My baby makes me smile Lord, don't he make me smile I'm never far away Or too tired to say I want to I'm purring like a kitten When e's out in public with me But when they turn out the lights He brings out the tiger in me Repeat Chorus Tag: Behind closed doors |

Don't look so sad I know it's over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together There's no need to watch the bridges that were burning Lay your head upon my pillow Hold your warm and tender body close to mine Hear the whisper of the rain drops Blowing soft against the window And make believe you love me one more time For the good times I'll get along and you'll find another And I'll be here if you should find you ever need Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever They'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me Lay your head upon my pillow Hold your warm and tender body close to mine Hear the whisper of the rain drops Blowing soft against the window And make believe you love me one more time For the good times For the good times For the good times |

If she brings you happiness
Then I wish you both the best It's your happiness that matters most of all But if she ever breaks your heart If the teardrops ever start I'll be there before the next teardrop falls Though it hurts to let you go Darling I want you to know I'll run to you if ever you should call And if I should ever hear That she's made you shed a tear I'll be there before the next teardrop falls I'll be there anytime you need me by your side To dry away each teardrop you've cried If she ever leaves you blue Just remember I love you And I'll be there Before the next teardrop falls Alli estare candor me necesites a tu lado Para borrar cadda lagrima que haya llorado If he ever leaves you blue Just remember I love you And I'll be there Before the next teardrop falls I'll be there, I'll be there Before the next teardrop falls |

I've tried and I've tried for so long to please you Gave you every bit of my time Gave you everything I could possibly give you My body, my heart, and my mind I turned my family and good friends against me Listened to my own heart break And I did it all in the name of love Gave up myself for your sake And you never cared about me You only hurt and deceive I realize after all of these years That you ain't worth the salt in my tears You've cheated, you've lied and you've hurt me Over and over again You promised to love me forever But forever reached a bitter sweet end Been blinded by love to your actions But at last I can see my way clear I've cried and I've tried, and I've tried and I've cried But you, you've never shed one tear 'Cause you never cared about me You only hurt and deceive I realize after all of these years That you ain't worth the salt in my tears You ain't worth, you ain't worth the salt in my tears Treated like dirt, I'm hurt, I ain't hangin' 'round here You've left me crying, left me crying for years But you ain't worth the salt in my tears You never cared about me You only hurt and decieve I realize after all of these years That you ain't worth the salt in my tears No you ain't worth the salt in my tears |

Chorus:
Today I started loving you again I'm right back where I've really always been I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend And then today I started loving you again What a fool I was to think I could get by With only these few million tears I've cried I guess I should have known the worst was yet to come And the crying time for me had just begun Repeat Chorus Twice Today I started loving you again Today I started loving you Today I started loving you again |

Bartender won't you pour me a very strong drink
Just keep it coming till I don't have to think And point out some cowboy that might want to dance And make sure I get home if you see that I can't You see I loved him, he left me for a girl half my age I relate to each sad song that ole jukebox has played I listen to Haggard, ole Hank, and George Jones But why don't more women sing honky tonk songs? Chorus: Why don't more women sing honky-tonk songs? About the heartaches and the tough breaks And the men that's done 'em wrong There are others just like me that are hurtin' to the bone So why don't more women sing honky-tonk songs Why don't more women sing honky tonk songs Honky tonk angels are just queens without thrones Judge not lest you be judged, who can cast the first stone Why don't more women sing honky-tonk songs Repeat 1st Verse (All you lonely women sing) Why don't more women sing honky tonk songs About the heartaches and the tough breaks And all the men that's done us wrong There's a whole lotta women I know would sing along So why don't more women sing honky tonk songs Why don't more women sing honky tonk songs |

Chorus:
Satin sheets to lie on Satin pillows to cry on Still I'm not happy don't you see Big long Cadillacs, tailor maids upon my back Still I want you to set me free I've found another man Who can give more than you can Though you've given me everything that money can buy But your money can't hold me tight Like he does on a long long night No, you didn't keep me satisfied Repeat Chorus Twice Tag: Satin sheets to lie on |

Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming
Saying something about a king There were peasants singing and drummers drumming And the archer split the tree There was a fanfare blowing to the sun That was floating on the breeze Look at Mother Nature on the run In the twenty-first century Look at Mother Nature on the run In the twenty-first century I was lying in a burned out basement With the full moon in my eyes I was hoping for a replacement When the sun burst through the sky There was a band playing in my head And I felt like I could cry I was thinking about what a friend had said I was hoping it was a lie Thinking about what a friend had said I was hoping it was a lie Well, I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flyin' In the yellow haze of the sun There was laughing, crying and colors flying All around the chosen one All in a dream, all in a dream, the loading had begun Flying Mother Nature's silver seed to a new home in the sun They were flying Mother Nature's silver seed to a new home |

She was born in a place called Blue Valley
At the foot of the Tennessee hills With the blue birds and blue bells And blue mountain water And the sound of the Blue Whippoorwill But there was no peace in the valley Her daddy, a cruel, ruthless man Used and abused her mind and her body So her mama said run while you can So at fifteen she took to the highway Belongings and guitar in hand And she buried herself in her music The one thing she did understand And she sings like a bird and she writes like a poet Her voice has that high, lonesome sound She hurts, and her songs are the best way to show it So the Blue Valley songbird keeps traveling around She hopes someday she will make it And everyone says that she will When she comes to town, crowds flock around To see the girl from the Tennessee hills She writes her letter back home to her mama In care of the preacher in town They're sacred to her so she reads them at church And so her daddy cannot track her down And she sings like a bird and she cries like a baby Whenever she turns off the lights She's a whole lot lonesome and a little bit crazy From mem'ries and miseries and dreams gone awry Blue dress, blue shoes, a blue Cadillac A band dressed in blue by her side Instruments tied to the top and the back 'Cause the Blue Valley songbird is singing tonight One nighters, honky tonks, years flying by She never made it, but Lord knows she tries Expressing the feelings she holds inside And the Blue Valley songbird is singing tonight Oh the Blue Valley songbird is singing tonight And she sings like a bird and she writes like a poet |

I'm tempted my darlin' to steal you away
Don't let me cross over, stay out of my way 'Cause you know that I love you and I'm not the stealin' kind But I'm faced with heartache here at love's cheating line Chorus: Don't let me cross over love's cheating line You belong to another and can never be mine I know one step closer would be heaven divine Don't let me cross over love's cheating line I've tried to forget you but what else can I do When your eyes keep saying that you want me too And I know if I lose you not a dream will I have left I don't want to cheat dear, but I can't help myself Repeat Chorus Tag: Don't let me cross over love's cheating line |

The thrill, the desire, the excitement is gone
We seem to have found a safe comfort zone We worked so hard to get where we are That romance got lost on the way It used to be never enough We'd melt with each look and each burning touch We laughed and we loved and we just ate it up Back when we were hungry that way Chorus: Let's love like we're hungry again Bring back the passion we had back then The time has gone by, we forgot what it meant Lets love like we're hungry again Don't you miss those feelings we had at the start And that fire that got started from each little spark Oh it's good where we are, but I miss where we've been Lets love like we're hungry again, now and then Lets love like we're hungry again Bring back the passion we had back then The time has gone by, now we've grown too content Lets love like we're hungry again, now and then Lets love like we're hungry again |

There's a place in my mind that's suspended in time
When we were happy in love Days warm and sweet, and the night so complete Then life was perfect for us It was just you and I, only love in our eyes Not a sign of a tear on our face No sorrow, no pain, only sunshine, no rain Before something else took its place Oh, I wanna go back there Back to the time there was no doubt you cared Back to the time love was tender and fair I wanna go back there, I wanna go back there Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do I wanna go back there Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do I wanna go back there Do you think if we tried we could put life aside And see if we might make it back I know in my heart what we had at the start I believe it could still be like that Oh, I wanna go back there Away from these heartaches, these worried and cares Back to the time love was tender and fair I wanna go back there, I wanna go back there Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do I wanna go back there (say you care) I wanna go back, I wanna go back I wanna go back there Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do I wanna go back there Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do I wanna go back there, I wanna go back there |

I didn't cry all of these tears just to have you show up here again I didn't lie awake all these nights to have you come walking back in I didn't change my whole life around, not to mention my dreams and my plans To have you come back with your same ol' act thinking that I'll understand Time and tears have mended the pain Healed all the hurt and changed everything Time and tears I'm happy to say Time and tears have washed it away Time and tears have washed you away I didn't think that I would survive the day that you walked out on me I truly was more dead than alive; and the pain, Lord I couldn't believe I asked God to please have mercy on me and to ease all the feelings I felt Then I saw the light, now I'm more than alright; I'm much better off since you left Time and tears have mended the pain Healed all the hurt and changed everything Time and tears have carried me through Time and tears got me over you Time and tears and somebody new Time and tears is all that it takes To mend shattered hopes or a heart when it breaks Time and tears have carried me through Time and tears got me over you Time and tears and somebody new Time and tears, time and tears got me over you Time and tears, got me over you |

I couldn't believe it the day that you left
Cleaned out your closet cleared off your shelves Loaded your car and you drove out of sight But I never said goodbye I'll never say goodbye the door's always open I leave on a light I'm always waiting in case you drop by I'll never say goodbye People have told me you have a new love My heart's not willing to give up on us I've convinced myself they're just telling me lies And I'll never say goodbye I'll never say goodbye the door's always open I leave on a light I never wanted you out of my life and I'll never say goodbye [ guitar ] I'll never say goodbye the door's always open I leave on a light I'll be loving you till the day that I die and I'll never say goodbye If you'll just come back I won't even ask why I'll never say goodbye no I'll never say goodbye |

Nothing new, nothing different, nothing better, nothing more
Nothing else to give you I didn't give before I gave my love completely, my heart was always yours It wouldn't do, I still lost you You want to give it one chance; Don't know why we should We'd never get that far again or make the love that good We had our chance, we blew it; And I'll never understand Careless fools, I still lost you You want to fan the flames of love, stir up passion's fire Conjure up familiar lusts, stir up past desires What we had then, we don't have now; And I would just compare I refuse, I still lost you Too late for starting over, it hardly ever works Too many missing pieces, too much water, too much hurt I already lost you once, and that makes matters worse What's the use, I still lost you Oh you want to fan the flames of love, stir up passion's fire Conjure up familiar lusts, stir up past desires What we had then, we don't have now; And I would just compare I refuse, I still lost you Oh what's the use, I still lost you I lost you |

You come to me with teardrops in your eyes
Expecting me to listen to your lies You want me to forget and to forgive Enough, enough, this ain't no way to live I know you wonder why I'd leave like this After all the hurt I've put up with This is the last time, this is the last straw Too late, too late now it's your time to crawl Chorus: She's just the straw that broke the camel's heart It's not her fault, it's yours we fell apart No more, I'm done, I want a brand new start (It's) She's just the straw that broke the camel's heart I've been grasping at straws for much too long This ain't the first time you have done me wrong This time you drew the short end of the straw The game is over, you have lost it all Repeat Chorus She's just the straw that broke the camel's heart |

When I was a child I recall and old man; everybody loved old Zeke He was all alone, his family was gone; one day he said to me I'm just sittin' here thinkin' about Jesus, rockin' as my old chair creaks Some glad day I'll fly away when Jesus comes calling for me It might be today, it might be tomorrow, maybe one day next week I'll soon be done with trouble and sorrow when He comes calling for me When Jesus comes calling for me When I die don't grieve and cry Lordy, don't feel sorry for me Oh what a day, what a mighty fine day When Jesus comes calling for me When He comes calling for me I might be in the graveyard walking talking to my family Or I might be plowing in the field down yonder, just old Muley and me Wherever I am, whatever I'm a doing, some sweet day I'll see And band of angels in a cloud of glory when Jesus comes calling for me When He comes calling for me When I die just close my eyes And lay me 'neath the willow tree Oh what a day, what a mighty fine day When Jesus comes calling for me When Jesus comes calling for me I'm just sittin' here watchin' for Jesus, rockin' as my old chair creaks Some sweet day I'll fly away when Jesus comes calling for me When He comes calling for me |

I grew up dirty and I grew up poor
The wolf didn't even hang 'round our door Not a crumb to spare and the cupboard bare And I had the gift of imagination I could change my situation Anytime I choose I could always go Down Paradise Road I found a kingdom deep within A place dream and to pretend And to prepare for the world out there A dream can dress you when you're ragged Fill you up when hunger's naggin' I warmed my soul when life was cold On Paradise Road Chorus: Paradise is a state of mind The sun shines warm and all the time And the rain don't flow and the wind don't blow On Paradise Road A place no one can take from me A place of everlasting peace Where dreamers go; It's never closed Paradise Road Paradise is a state of mind Down the road of life and time And the friends we meet Make the travlin' sweet On Paradise Road Sometimes now when the world is mad I find that place I've always had Inside my soul; It's paved in gold Paradise Road I grew up dirty and I grew up poor The wolf didn't even hang 'round our door Not a crumb to spare and the cupboard bare But I had the gift of imagination I could change my situation Anytime I choose I could always go Down Paradise Road |
