Baby I bought wine and roses
On my way home Yeah, I know we can't afford it But life doesn't last too long This world has gone crazy And knocked us both to our knees I'm fumbling for the words to try And tell you I love you For hanging onto me When anyone else Would've been long gone Packed it up and headed back home And not a soul would blame you After what I put you through Yeah, anyone else Would've gone insane Called the game on account of rain Anyone else, anyone else, anyone else, Anyone but you Mayday, baby, all the rivets Popped loose it's a total tailspin Too much grindstone Too little time with you, girl You know it's wearing thin Baby let's trade in these teardrops For warm kisses on skin You got a drawer full of IOU's And it's high time You called those things in When anyone else Would've been long gone You've passed up so many chances To walk right out the door Instead of dodging A champagne cork And watching the wet clothes Fall to the floor When anyone else Would've been long gone Packed it up and headed back home And you can hide behind A Cheshire cat grin But you know it's true Yeah, anyone else Would've gone insane Called the game on account of rain Anyone else, anyone else, Anyone but you Anyone else, girl, anyone but you |

Looking out my window
See you playing in the leaves It's amazing how a little girl Means all the world to me When I tell you that I love you I love you more than words can say Smile say cheese pretty please I want to take your picture How'd you ever get so big I gotta take your picture And hold on to the mem'ry before The whole things slips away I wish I could save these moments And put 'em in a jar I wish I could stop The world from turning Keep things just the way they are I wish I could shelter you from Everything not pure and sweet and good I know I can't, I know I can't But I wish I could When you kiss me for no reason It goes straight to my heart When I feel your arms around me I almost fall apart It's time for bed You whisper "daddy we forgot to pray" I wish I could save these moments When I watch you sleeping All my worries slip away A little bit of heaven Close on your gentle face I wish I could save these moments |

I think I feel like an old beat up two lane
The one that the state's not about to repair From where I'm falling I think I might meet you Below where we were just above just don't care The way the world's changing I just can't accept it No right or wrong all in between The faith we were raised on is weathered and shaken But baby it don't have to be Cause I still believe in a prayer before supper Passing the time round the old courthouse square We've got nothing to keep us from start over Georgia We'll leave all the baggage and start over there Well I've never been to that part of the country Save for some old movies and deep in my mind Where it's accepted and even rewarded To stand on your own right side of the line Nobody wins here we're all scared of losing I feel scarred right down to the bone Maybe we'll find ourselves close to the ocean Where freedom first breathed on it's own Cause I still believe in a prayer Oh we've got nothing to keep us |

It's that feeling that someone is standing behind me
then I turn around and there's no one there. And it's the sensation that someone just whispered, yeah I still hear your voice but you're not really here. Your memory's like a ghost, and my heart is its host. [Chorus:] I can still feel you just as close as skin, every now and then. All by myself, in a crowded room, on my empty bed. There's a place you've touched with your love no one gets close to I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel you. I can still feel you you said you'd love me forever, then you said 'It's over" and left me without the missing link. Well I thought I'd forget you, but I guess I forgot to, and lately I've been too confused to think. When I reach for someone new, it's like I'm touching you. [Chorus] In everything that moves, in everything I do [Chorus] |

I ain't gonna lie to you and say it didn't hurt
To see you with someone new and you were wearing my old blue shirt But it didn't kill me until we said hello And I became someone you used to know [Chorus:] Like a friend like a fool like some guy you knew in school Didn't we love didn't we share or don't you even care I know we said we were through but I never knew how quickly I would go From someone you loved to someone you used to know If you didn't tell him about those weekends at the coast Or how we use to argue about who loved who the most Well, I guess I won that one cause I still need you so But to you I'm just someone you used to know [Chorus] Didn't we love didn't we share or don't you even care I know we said we were through but I never knew how quickly I would go From someone you loved to someone you used to know I'm not someone you love I'm someone you used to know |

Way down at the bottom
Both sides come together And form a V And that's what mama calls The corner of the heart She says a lot of couples Never turn that corner They don't love that deep They care a little while Then they drift apart Well now, baby, If you wonder why I'm telling you all of this It's because something is changing I can feel it when we kiss And if the moon keeps rising You better hold on I am Turning the corner of the heart Back in the Albuquerque Near the river There was a cottonwood One summer hooked up with A climbing rose And by the time it snowed They were so tangled Nothing on earth could get That handsome couple to let go Well now, baby, This world spins too quick For the eye to see The slow changing Of a stranger into family But if the moon keeps rising But if the moon keeps rising Turning the corner of the heart (Turning the corner of the heart) |

Looking back from where I stand tonight
I wouldn't change a thing about my life Wrong turns I had to take back in those crazy years Could not have been mistakes if they brought me here 'Cause all my roads have led me to This night, this love I share with you And though the road was never smooth Life has made me someone who Could be the right someone for you I don't regret a single broken heart That taught me what love is and what it's not Someone must have planned our two paths would cross I couldn't see it then but I was never lost 'Cause all my roads have led me to This night, this love I share with you And though the road was never smooth Life has made me someone who Could be the right someone for you Detours, dead ends, endless explorations You were my only destination 'Cause all my roads have led me to This night, this love I share with you And though the road was never smooth Life has made me someone who Could be the right someone for you |

Today the air cleared up
The lights came on bright Years of heavy weight In a moment turned light I'd thought love could only look Dark as if through a glass I just turned into an open book Readin' easy at last Tonight, my walls came down Like a brick through a plate glass window With a wrecking ball sound Like old Jericho, laid swift to the ground I'm not sure when but baby you're how The walls came down I've never trusted much Got my reasons like most Stayed well protected from Every thorn on each rose Takin' those wayward trips Only to turn back and run Sailin' all my relationships Could not have dreamed up this one Tonight, my walls came down Like a brick through a plate glass window With a wrecking ball sound Like old Jericho, laid swift to the ground I'm not sure when but baby you're how The walls came down You make sense to me In a world where just a few things do make sense to me In your heart I'll put my trust Through whatever is in front of us Tonight, my walls came down Like a brick through a plate glass window With a wrecking ball sound Like old Jericho, laid swift to the ground I'm not sure when but baby you're how The walls came down Ooh, baby you're how the walls came down Oh the walls came down |

I'm just a fool for April there's nothing more to say
Long as I can remember she's led my heart astray When I was green as willow she had me ditchin' school And even then she tricked me I'm just an April fool She tangles dogwood blossoms into her yellow hair She uses the same perfume the smoky mountains wear She keeps the flame of summer round her neck like a jewel She breezes in to see me and I'm an April fool She entrances me and she dances me and she flies me like a kite And I soon forget she's only come to play Then there comes a day when she will not stay and I lie awake all night Hoping next time April may When I walked out this morning April had up and gone And it was clear as water she'd only led me on And it will be next winter before my heels will cool And then I will forgive her I'm just an April fool She knows I will forgive her I'm just an April fool |

I'm watching you go from room to room
With all your boxes and your broom Packing up, sweeping out and taking down From off the wall Everything that's part of us Tear my whole world down if you must Don't even leave one little speck of dust Make sure you've got it all Take my heart, take my soul, Take it all with you when you go Just leave the floor here To catch me when I fall You stole my pride and dignity You took it all away from me Take one last look around, girl Before you leave And make sure you've got it all Don't even leave one photograph The memory of one smile or laugh Check the closet up in the attic And down the hall Take your time, take your rings, Take the sandbox and the swings Without a family, oh they're just things Make sure you've got it all Take my heart, take my soul Take one last look around, girl Before you leave And make sure you've got it all |

You've been my best friend all these years
You've kept holding on to me through all the trials and the tears Only you and i could know all the sacrifices That let this feeling grow There were so many times we could have said goodbye We could have called i |

She hears his heavy breathing in the dark
His footsteps coming closer down the hall She's so ashamed, she's daddy's secret love She wants to cry, she wants to die But he can't get enough The bruises on his face will go away Mom keeps him home from school till they fade She's sorry he was born, and tells him so He takes it in, he hangs his chin He ducks another blow Did God overlook it? What ought have been written The eleventh commandment Honor thy children He cries for hours, cries and never stops He shakes so hard his little cradle rocks He'll never have the chance to be brand new He'll never walk, he'll never talk He's addicted too Did God overlook it? What ought have been written The eleventh commandment Honor thy children Thou shall not kill Thou shall not steal Thou shall not take the Lord's name in vain Thou shall not cause thy children pain God does not overlook it What ought have been written The eleventh commandment Honor thy children Honor thy children |
