You swear you've had enough
You're ready to give up On that little lie they call love Then out of the blue clear sky Fallin' right into your hands Like rain on the desert sand It's the last thing you had planned Then out of the blue clear sky Here she comes walkin' talkin' true love Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love Surprise your new love has arrived Out of the blue clear sky Ain't love a funny thing One day you're givin' up the dream And the next you're pickin' out a ring Out of the blue clear sky Here she comes walkin' talkin' true love Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love Surprise your new love has arrived Out of the blue clear sky Here she comes walkin' talkin' true love Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love Surprise your new love has arrived Out of the blue clear sky |

I don't take my whiskey to extreme,
I don't believe in chasing crazy dreams, My feet are planted firmly on the ground, But darlin' when you come around I get carried away, by the look, by the light in your eyes Before I even realize the ride I'm on, and baby I'm long gone I get carried away, nothing matters but bein' with you Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day I get carried away It might seem like an ordinary night, Same old stars, the same old moon up high But when I see you standin' at your door Nothin's ordinary anymore I get carried away, by the look, by the light in your eyes Before I even realize the ride I'm on, and baby I'm long gone I get carried away, nothing matters but bein' with you Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day I get carried away I get carried away, by the look, by the light in your eyes Before I even realize the ride I'm on, and baby I'm long gone I get carried away, nothing matters but bein' with you Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day I get carried away |

The first time I saw you
You were waitin' tables at the corner diner I said to myself Never seen a woman look any finer. From that moment on I was stone cold gone You would be forever in my mind Now somewhere in the neon lights I'm holdin' on for dear life Rockin' in the arms of your memory, tonight. It was San Francisco Silly suits and white ties by the bay You appeared with your papa Tears were rollin' down your mama's face. Everyone was happy Showered by well wishers as we drove away. Now somewhere in the neon lights I'm holdin' on for dear life Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight. I'm living but dying I'm laughing but crying Somebody tell me it will be alright. I bought it for your birthday God, you looked so lovely in that dress I took you to a party Or was it to a night club I forget. Been twenty years and counting I'm drowning in your love a little more each day. Now somewhere in the neon lights I'm holdin' on for dear life Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight. Now somewhere in the neon lights I'm holdin' on for dear life Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight... |

She knows she's holdin' someone who don't love her
She knows she's where you could have been She knows I turn to her because you turned me down And she knows when you're on my mind again Every night she opens up the door to heaven But when you're on my mind, I can't go in And you come runnin' through my mind And I let my memory chase you She knows when you're on my mind, again Sometimes late at night, I hear her crying She turns to me, but you won't let her in She knows the door is locked but she keeps trying She knows when you're on my mind, again Every night she opens up the door to heaven But when you're on my mind, I can't go in And you come runnin' through my mind And I let my memory chase you She knows when you're on my mind again... |

I've traveled through lots of places
Seen lots of folks and lots of faces Even settled down a time or two I've worked the farms, I've been to town Guess you could say I've been around But I ain't never seen no one like you. I can tell by your smile you don't believe a word I say You're thinkin' I'll just stay awhile then be on my way But girl I think it's far to warn ya I've done been to California I ain't never seen no one like you. I knew a girl in Mississippi Had twenty different ways to kiss me Never found a thing she couldn't do Hey, I even knew some twins in Denver Stayed with them one cold December I ain't never seen no one like you. I can tell by your smile you don't believe a word I say You're thinkin' I'll just stay awhile then be on my way But girl I think it's far to warn ya I've done been to California I ain't never seen no one like you. East to west, north to south You're the very best girl there ain't no doubt I'm tellin' you you're really somethin' The way you got my heart a jumpin' I ain't never seen no one like you. I can tell by your smile you don't believe a word I say You're thinkin' I'll just stay awhile then be on my way But girl I think it's far to warn ya I've done been to California I ain't never seen no one like you. Hey, girl I think it's far to warn ya I've done been to California But I ain't never seen no one like you Ah yeah... |

Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine.
She heard his voice on the other end of the line; She wondered what was wrong this time. She never knew what his calls might bring. With a cowboy like him it could be anything. And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind. He said, It's cold out here, and I'm all alone. I didn't make the short go again and I'm comin' home. I know I've been away too long. I never got a chance to write or call. I know this rodeo has been hard on us all. But I'll be home soon, and honey is there something wrong? She said, don't bother comin' home, By the time you get here I'll be long gone. There's some body new and he sure ain't no rodeo man. He said, I'm sorry it's come down to this. There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss. But it's all right baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne. Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne. He left that phone danglin' off the hook, Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look. Then he just walked away. He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line With a little luck he can still get there in time. And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say: She said, don't bother comin' home, By the time you get here I'll be long gone. There's some body new and he sure ain't no rodeo man. He said, I'm sorry it's came down to this. There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss. But it's all right baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne. Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne. She never knew what his calls might bring. With a cowboy like him, it could be anything. And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind... |

I gave her that diamond she dreamed of,
And I bought her a home with a view. I took her to the end of the rainbow, But all I left her was blue. Seems I never had time to love her, And now it seems time just stands still. I thought I was king of the mountain, But I was only a fool on the hill. Now I'm here alone, after leavin' her lonely Lord, I'm livin' with the memory I know I can't kill. I thought I was king of the mountain, But I was only a fool on the hill. Chorus: Now I'm here alone, after leavin' her lonely Lord, I'm livin' with the memory I know I can't kill. I thought I was king of the mountain, But I was only a fool on the hill. Yeah, I thought I was king of the mountain, But I was only a fool on the hill... |

Once you told me you were gonna love me
That it was meant to be and there's no other way Then came someone showed you more fun We've had a good run better think it over Do the right thing, baby do the right thing Go with your heart and do the right thing He's got a good line, shows you a good time Did he change your mind. guess it's your move I'll lose my pride, I'd even step aside Honey. you really must decide who's best for you Do the right thing, baby do the right thing Go with your heart and do the right thing Do the right thing, baby do the right thing Go with your heart and do the right thing You might chose me or chose to lose me Someday you'll see the good thing you had Do the right thing, baby do the right thing Go with your heart and do the right thing Do the right thing, baby do the right thing Go with your heart and do the right thing Go with your heart and do the right thing... |

You say you want to talk it over
Want to try again But there's no way of workin' it out This love that we're not in. We could talk and talk and accomplish nothin' We've tried it all before It's time somebody did some walkin' And I can see the door. So, I'd just as soon go I'd just as soon say goodbye There's no reason to prolong What we should just let die. And I'd just as soon stop I'd just as soon end the madness Knowin' what I know I'd just as soon go. It's not an easy thing to do Leavin' seldom ever is But stayin' just to see us through Just ain't no way to live. It's hard for you to understand But we're better off this way I can't fake it one more night Or take it one more day. So, I'd just as soon go I'd just as soon say goodbye There's no reason to prolong What we should just let die. And I'd just as soon stop I'd just as soon end the madness Knowin' what I know I'd just as soon go. Knowin' what I know I'd just as soon go... |
