Three kids gathered in a huddle
Broomstick fishing pole Hanging in a puddle They think they can catch That big one anywhere And I ain't gonna tell them boys There ain't no fish in there Cause what they don't know Just might be a blessin' Don't get 'em second guessin' Let 'em dream without a doubt Cause if they don't know it can't be done They just might do it If no one can convince 'em The odds are stacked against 'em There's no telling how far they can go On what they don't know A child bride and a groom not much older They've got a baby and the world On their shoulders Six out of ten don't stand A chance to last a year Oh but they're in love And they can't see that far from here Cause what they don't know, Oh what they don't know, What they don't know |

For all I've been blessed with in this life
There was an emptiness in me I was imprisoned by the power of gold But one honest touch could set me free Let the world stop turnin' Let the sun stop burnin' Let them tell me love's not worth going through If i |

Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die Well I met her accidental in St Paul Minnesota And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl that southern drawl Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavortin' in Davenport And I followed you Big River when you called Then you took me to St Louis later on down the river A freighter said she's been here but she's gone said boy she's gone I found her trail in Memphis but she just walked up the block She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone Now won't you batter down by Boton Rouge River Queen roll it on Take that woman on down to New Orleans New Orleans Go on I've had enough dump my blues down in the gulf She loves you Big River more than me Yeah I pulled into Nachez yesterday down the river You know there's not much there to make you stay very long When I left it was raining so nobody saw me crying Big river why's she treatin' me this way Well I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die Yeah I'm gonna sit right here until I die |

I look out my window
At the world I once owned And I see it's still spinning round But somewhere above me A light I once knew No longer shines through the clouds But that's somebody else's moon tonight Those're somebody else's stars They're no longer mine Cause somewhere tonight You're in somebody else's arms Remember the wishes We made in the night When dreams were supposed to come true Well I do cause you Put the stars in my eyes As you softly promised the moon That's somebody else's moon tonight They're no longer mine Cause somewhere tonight You're in somebody else's arms |

There's a look on your face that says your leaving
You've already got one foot out the door If it's new love or not like that you're needing I won't leave the light on anymore I still believe we could hold it together but there's something I want you to know When I gave you my heart I gave it forever But you can't take it with you when you go While you're packing your suitcase pack my mem'ries Cause I don't want them round here when you're gone If you let that door close behind you say goodbye to the love we have known I still believe we could hold it together, When I gave you my heart I gave it forever But you can't take it with you when you go |

I've seen that look before,
here comes that doubt again. You think that girl we saw, was more than just a friend. Yes, there was a time I thought she had it all. She meant the world to me, back when the world was small. That was a river, this is the ocea |

Baby please don't get too close to me
Cause that ring you're wearin' Says that you're not free But if I said I didn't want ya Well you know I'd be a liar You better run while there's still time Cause I can't stop this fire I want you bad I can't help myself But you belong to someone else I'd leave you alone, darling, if I could But I want you bad and that ain't good Baby please put away those ruby lips And those big blue eyes Are too hard to resist I'm not that kind of man Oh and usually I'm strong But it's gettin' hard to tell between What's right and what is wrong I want you bad I can't help myself, I want you bad girl that ain't good I want you bad bad bad that ain't good |

When the boy was no more than a shaver
His old man told many a tale How his great grandad used to go drovin' Back and forth on the Oachezown Trail Now you might say the boy got infected By a fantasy of the old west For his heart and his soul got connected To a spirit that won't let him rest Now he don't wear spurs that go jingle He don't spend his nights round a fire He lifts diesel oil that is horses required But he is a latter day cowboy Dressed as a truck driving man Driving his wheels And his dreams to Cheyenne He beds down by the side of the highway At the sight of the first evening star In the darkness his big pony idles As he quietly strums his guitar And he sings out a song of his sweetheart Even as her sweet mem'ry grows dim And he sings of the trail he has chosen But the actual fact is the trail chose him Now he don't wear spurs that go jingle Yes he is a latter day cowboy Driving his wheels And his dreams to Cheyenne |

I look down the road
That winds in the distance And wonder where it might lead I only know it makes no difference As long as you walk with me Many a mile we will travel Many a dream we will share Many's the time we will gladly take The long way there With every step We will draw closer With every turn Our love will grow Take my hand We have many a mile to go True love is not A destination but One day we will arrive This is the journey We will be taking The rest of our lives Many a mile we will travel There will be days that we're missing All the places our love has been There will be joy in knowing the best Is still around the bend With every step We will draw closer With every turn Our love will grow Take my hand We have many a mile to go Oh, take my hand We have many a mile to go Many a mile to go |

I bless the day i found you
I want to stay around you And so i beg you Let it be me Don't take this heaven from one If you must cling to someone Now and forever Let it be me Each time we make love I found complete love Without your sweet love What would life be So never leave me lonely Tell me you love me only And that you'll always let it be me Each time we meet love I find complete love Without your sweet love what would life be So never leave me lonely Tell me you love me only And that you'll always let it be me And that you'll always let it be me |
