These are the words of the Popstars These are the words of the unsophisticated money machines, For the killers of rock and roll.

Can you guess
Why I haven't called you back
I said I'm screening calls
Even your calls
Why am I such a bad guy
I'm just doing other things
Like you do other things
I could never really love you simply because
Simply because
I could never really love you simply because of the trust
Of the trust
You're up all night
Fixing your hair
But you're not satisfied
With that I'm satisfied
I'm doing things like I said before
I'm not partying
I'm parting from the non-creative (Yeah)
You've lost my love (Oh yeah)

1, 2
1, 2, 3, 4
well, i met this girl on a
saturday night, saturday night
saturday night, saturday night
saturday night, saturday night
she sat there all alone with that
shirley temple and a cellular phone
no one to call
no one to ring
cause no ones home
the bartender knew her number and name
i grabbed my cell phone and gave her a ring
wrong number
guess i've gotta do it the hard way
i walked up to her having seen the future and said
i'm sorry sorry for making your life a living hell
i'm sorry sorry for making your life a living hell
that wasn't me
that was alter ego
that wasn't me
that was johnny rockets
she was so confused
from her point of view i would be confused too
i was so rude
what was i thinking?
but, but she dug my hair and new suede shoes so much
she dragged me straight, straight to her room
and i was forgetting what i knew i would do
two hours later we lay on the bed and i said
i'm sorry sorry for making your life a living hell
i'm sorry sorry for making your life a living hell
that wasn't me
that was alter ego
that wasn't me
that was johnny rockets
i'm sorry, sorry for making your life a living hell
(i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry)
i'm sorry sorry for making your life a living hell
(i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry)
that wasn't me
that was alter ego
that wasn't me
that was johnny rockets
i'm sorry, sorry for making your life
i'm sorry, sorry for making your life
i'm sorry, sorry for making your life a living hell

Stay away from my friends They're smooth operators
Looking for a way in
Stay Away from me tonight
I've made other plans And you'll just be distracting me
In a good way She doesn't know That I love her Yes I love her
Make a move on me baby I can't be the one Who's always taking chances
See me down so you get down No you've got me all wrong
I just want to kiss your lips And you kiss back
Leave us alone
Your friends And my friends should go Far away

I don't know a lot about her
But she, she knew a lot about me
Her family seemed to love her
If wht the say is true
Her friends all share th good times man
That girl has love
That girl has I, I didn't have a clue then
That a kiss would change my whole life again
She walked into my room
Hen i was allalone
She told me I would date her frm September till Decemer
She doesn't know things will never be the same again
She'll always be seventeen
That girl ha love
She kept all the pain inside
Now she has got nothing to hide
At such a young age she took her own life
Now she's seeing things that come in our dreams at night
She's a dreamer
That was too real to ever be fake
That was too srong to ever be forgotten
That girl has love

I set out on a narrow way
many years ago
Hoping I would find true love
along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign
pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream
led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way
into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent
just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost
and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan
that is coming true

[Chorus]
Every long lost dream
led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way
into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

I set out on a narrow way
many years ago
Hoping I would find true love
along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign
pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream
led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way
into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent
just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost
and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan
that is coming true

[Chorus]
Every long lost dream
led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way
into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

I was sittin' on a wooden stool
In a barbeque joint in Tennessee.
When this old boy walked in,
And he sat right down next to me.

I could tell he's been through some hard times,
'Cause there were tear stains on his old shirt.
Then he said, "d'you wanna know what you get
when you play a country song backwards?"

You get your house back, you get your dog back
You get your best friend Jackson back
You get your truck back, you get your hair back
You get your first and second jobs back

Your front porch swing going ding-a-ling-a-ling
Your bling, bling, bling, and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
That old black hat named Charlie

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards

Well, I never heard it said quite like that
It hit me in the face 'cause that's where I'm at
I almost fell flat out on the floor, he said,
"Wait a minute, that's not all, there's even more"

You get your mind back, your nerves back,
Your reaky-breaky heart back
You get your pride back, you get your life back,
And you get your first real love back

Your big screen TV
DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn, and the break in the mower
You go back when life was slower

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards,
Oh that's all.

We sat there and talked about
How it would be
If we could just rewind it all
and go back in T I M E

You get your house back, you get your dog back
You get your best friend Jackson back
You get your truck back, you get your hair back
You get your first and second jobs back

Your front porch swing going ding-a-ling-a-ling
Your bling, bling, bling, and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
That old black hat named Charlie

You get your mind back, your nerves back,
Your reaky-breaky heart back
You get your pride back, you get your life back,
And you get your first real love back

Your big screen TV
DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn, and the break in the mower
You go back when life was slower

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards

Well life's like a road that you travel on When there's one day here and the next day gone Somtimes you bend, sometimes you stand Somtimes you turn your back to the wind There's a world outside ev'ry darkened door Where blues won't haunt you anymore Come ride with me to the distant shore We won't hesitate To brake down the garden gate There's not much time left today [Chorus] Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night rong If you're going my way I wanna drive it all night rong Though all these cities and all these towns It's on my blood and it's all around I love you now like I loved you then This the road and these are the hands From Mozambique to those Memphis nights The Knyber Pass to Vancover's light Knock me down get bake up again You're in my blood I'm not a lonely man There's no load I can't hold Road so rough this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Just tell'em we're survivors [Chorus] Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah [Chorus] There was a distance between you and I(between you and I) A misunderstanding once But now we look it in the eye Ooooo yeah There ain't no load that I can't hold Road so rough this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Just tell'em we're surviors [Chorus (x3) ] Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long If you're going my way I wanna drive it all night long Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

If i had one call to make
I would dial yesterday and warn myself
Tell my lips the words to say
Not let you just walk away
With someone else
With someone else
[Chorus]
Next time, i wont suffer this kind of pain
Own my mistakes
Not just pass off all the blame
If you were here, we could figure this out
Then i wouldn't be bitter,
I'd just be better now
To be the strong and silent one
A lot of good that has done-
Yes, you'd agree
No more tryin' to understand
Or fix these things because you can't
Guess it's up to me
Yeah, it's up to me
[Repeat Chorus]
I'd be much better off
Much better off, maybe
If i could just let it go
With no regrets then
Next time, I won't suffer this kind of pain
Own my mistakes
Not just pass off all the blame
You'd still be here
And we'd figure this out
Then I wouldn't be bitter,
No, I wouldn't be bitter,
I'd just be better now.

You could've bowed out gracefully
But you didn't
You knew enough to know
To leave well enough alone
But you wouldn't
I drive myself crazy
Tryin' to stay out of my own way
The messes that I make
But my secrets are so safe
The only one who gets me
Yeah, you get me
It's amazing to me
CHORUS
How every day
Every day, every day
You save my life
I come around all broken down and
crowded out
in you're comfort
Sometimes the place I go
Is so deep and dark and desperate
I don't know, I don't know
Repeat Chorus
Sometimes I swear, I don't know if
I'm comin' or goin'
But you always say something
without even knowin'
That I'm hangin' on to your words
With all of my might and it's alright
Yeah, I'm alright for one more night-
every day
Every day, every day, every day
Every day, every day
You save me, you save me, oh, oh, oh
Every day
Every, every, every day-
Every day you save my life

Help Me Remember

I know that you're leavin'
As soon as the sun
Comes through the window
There's no talking this over
The damage is done
There's just too much hurt
Too much to forgive
Oh, but we both know
We were'nt always like this

[CHORUS]
Help me remember
The way that we used to be
When nothin' else mattered
"cause you were lovin' me
Just for the night, one last time
One more good memory
When I look back
That's what I wanna see

Oh, help me remember

Those days that were so good
Those nights that we held
Held on forever
When we weren't pretenders
We were as real as we felt
Oh, I don't want to fight anymore
Don't want the last thing I hear tonight
To be a slammin' door
Baby, let it be like before

[Repeat Chorus]

This could be the last time
I look in your eyes

Help me remember
The way that it used to be
When nothin' else mattered
'Cause you were lovin' me
Oh, help me remember
Oh, help me, help me

"Here"

There's a place I've been lookin'for
That took me in and out of buildings
Behind windows, walls and doors
And I thought I found it
Couple times, even settled down
And I'd hand around just long enough
To find my way back out
I know now the place that I was trying to
Reach
Was you, right here in front of me

[CHORUS]
And I would'nt change a thing
I'd walk right back through the rain
Back to every broken heart
On the day that it was breakin'
And I'd retrieve all the years
And be thankful for the tears
I've cried with every stumbled step
That led to you and got me here, right here

It's amazing what I let my heart go through
To get me where it got me
In this moment here with you
And it passed me by
God knows how many times
I was so caught up in holding
What I never thought I'd find
I know now, there's a million roads
I had to take
To get me in your arms that way

[Repeat Chorus]

In a love I never thought I'd get to get to
-here
And if that's the road
God made me take to be with you

[Repeat Chorus]

And I'd retrieve all the years
And be thankful for all the tears
I've cried with every stumbled step
That led to you and got me here, right here
Oh, baby-Ooo
Oh, got me here

How Strong Are You Now

When she told you goodbye
You didn't flinch
When she looked back
You didn't even budge an inch
You stood there like stone
But now that she's gone

[CHORUS]

How strong are you now
Without her around
You can't even keep one little bitty tear
From fallin' down
Tell me how strong are you know

Before she left you told yourself
It can't hurt that much
Now you're doubled over
Like you took a punch
No, she ain't coming back
Tell me how much can you take of that

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Tell me how strong are you now - yeah
How strong are you now - oh, oh
What's that rule you live by
You say tough guys never cry
But how strong are you now

No Reins

She left that loser in a dust cloud
Heart in his hand, chin on the ground
Cried her last tear for that clown
She can see a little clearer now
She said, "Oh, oh, I gotta go and find me"
Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

[CHORUS]
Like a painted wild mustang
Flyin' out across the open range
Finally gets to live her life that way
No fear, no fences, nobody-no reins

No reins

All she's ever felt is held back
She says, "It's kinda nice to hear myself laugh"
She's gonna do a lot more of that
She's makin' plans and makin' tracks
She said, "Oh, oh I gotta go and find me"
Oh, oh she found the strength to break free

[Repeat Chorus]

Oh, oh she's learnin' how to let go
Oh, oh whichever way the wind blows
Oh, oh she's learnin' how to let go

[Repeat Chorus Twice]

No reins

Secret Smile

Whoa! Hey, hey-
Oh what a ride
What a perfect sky to frame
Your hazel eyes
I'd scream on the inside
But right now it feels like I've
Been tranquilized
Oh, what a fool am I
To be tongue-tied
Sitting next to her
The princess and the passenger

You touch the rain and suddenly
There's waterfalls
Now every day is something more
Worth fighting for

[CHORUS]

Baby, you make the sun shine down
You make the sun shine down
You can paint the darkest clouds
And turn them into rainbows
You take your secret smile
The one that turns me on
Hey girl, you've been what I've waited for

Feet back on the pavement to the
Basement
On the bright side of the road
Fumbling my lines to a lazy cat
On the step outside her door
She opens up
And I'm in the Polaroid
Standing next to her
The princess and the passenger

Touching the rain and suddenly
There's waterfalls
Now every day is something more
Worth living for

[REPEAT CHORUS]

On a day like this when the world
Is elevated
On a day like this when I know just
Why I waited
On a day like this when the world
Is elevated
On a day like this when I know just
Why I waited

She Goes All The Way

No limits, no lines are drawn
The whole world disappears when
We're alone
That thin white cotton dress is
Blowin' in the wind
She takes my hand and the dance begins

[CHORUS]

With every move she makes
I'm deeper than I've been
Holding on and letting go
She just keeps givin' in
Takin' me higher and further
There she goes again givin' more than
She takes
'Cause it's more than love she makes
She goes all the way

No questions, no talking at all
Only the sound of our hearts as the fall
No matter what I need, her answer's
Always yes
I only have to dream and she does the
Rest

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

Ooo, ooo, ooo
My baby goes all the way, the way
She goes all the way
My baby goes all the way
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

Take Me There
by Rascal Flatts

There's a place in your heart nobody's been take me there
Things nobody knows not even your friends take me there
Tell me bout your momma your daddy your hometown show me around
I want see it all don't leave anything out

I want to know everything about you then
And I want to go down every road you've been
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live
Where you keep the rest of your life hid
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare take me there

Your first real kiss your first true love
You were scared show me where
You learned about life spent your summer nights without a care
I want to roll down main street the back roads
Like you did when you were a kid
What meet you who you are
Tell me what your story is

I want to know everything about you then
And I want to go down every road you've been
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live
Where you keep the rest of your life hid
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare take me there

Yeah I want to know everything about you

Where you keep the rest of your life hid
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare
Take me take me take me there Oh

Baby, look here at me
Have you ever seen me this way?
I've been fumblin' for words
Through the tears and the hurt and the pain.
I'm gonna lay it all out
On the line tonight.
And I think that it's time
To tell this uphill fight goodbye.

Have you ever had to love someone
That just don't feel the same?
Tryin' to make somebody care for you
The way I do
Is like tryin' to catch the rain.
And if love is really forever,
I'm a winner at a losin' game.

I know that baby, you've tried
To find me somewhere inside of you.
But, you know you can't lie
girl you can't hide the truth.oh noo
Sometimes two hearts
Just can't dance to the same beat.
So I'll pack up my things,
And I'll take what remains of me.

CHORUS:
Have you ever had to love someone
That just don't feel the same?
Tryin' to make somebody care for you
The way I do
Is like tryin' to catch the rain.
And if love is really forever,
I'm a winner at a losin' game.

BRIDGE:
I know that I'll never be the man that you need or love
Yeah, baby it's killin' me to stand here and see
I'm not what you've been dreamin' of

CHORUS:
Have you ever had to love someone
That just don't feel the same?
Tryin' to make somebody care for you
The way I do
Is like tryin' to catch the rain.
And if love is really forever,
I'm a winner at a losin' game.

Oh, oh, oh, if love is really forever
I'm a winner at a losin' game!


Oh, oh im tired of losin'

Well life's like a road that you travel on
When there's one day here and the next day gone
Somtimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Somtimes you turn your back to the wind
There's a world outside ev'ry darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
Come ride with me to the distant shore
We won't hesitate
To brake down the garden gate
There's not much time left today

[Chorus]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night rong
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night rong

Though all these cities and all these towns
It's on my blood and it's all around
I love you now like I loved you then
This the road and these are the hands
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
The Knyber Pass to Vancover's light

Knock me down get bake up again
You're in my blood
I'm not a lonely man
There's no load I can't hold
Road so rough this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Just tell'em we're survivors

[Chorus]

Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

[Chorus]

There was a distance between you and I(between you and I)
A misunderstanding once
But now we look it in the eye

Ooooo yeah

There ain't no load that I can't hold
Road so rough this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Just tell'em we're surviors

[Chorus (x3) ]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

In a barbeque joint in Tennessee.

And he sat right down next to me.

'Cause there were tear stains on his old shirt.

You get your first and second jobs back

Your front porch swing going ding-a-ling-a-ling
Your bling, bling, bling, and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
That old black hat named Charlie

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards

Well, I never heard it said quite like that
It hit me in the face 'cause that's where I'm at
I almost fell flat out on the floor, he said,
"Wait a minute, that's not all, there's even more"

You get your mind back, your nerves back,
Your reaky-breaky heart back
You get your pride back, you get your life back,
And you get your first real love back

Your big screen TV
DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn, and the break in the mower
You go back when life was slower

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards,
Oh that's all.

We sat there and talked about
How it would be
If we could just rewind it all
and go back in T I M E

You get your house back, you get your dog back
You get your best friend Jackson back
You get your truck back, you get your hair back
You get your first and second jobs back

Your front porch swing going ding-a-ling-a-ling
Your bling, bling, bling, and a diamond ring
You get your farm and the barn and the boat and the Harley
That old black hat named Charlie

You get your mind back, your nerves back,
Your reaky-breaky heart back
You get your pride back, you get your life back,
And you get your first real love back

Your big screen TV
DVD and a washing machine
You get the pond and the lawn, and the break in the mower
You go back when life was slower

It sounds a little crazy
A little scattered and absurd
But that's what you get
When you play a country song backwards

I set out on a narrow way
many years ago
Hoping I would find true love
along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign
pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream
led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way
into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent
just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost
and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan
that is coming true

[Chorus]
Every long lost dream
led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way
into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

I can hear the truck tires
coming up the gravel road
And its not like her to drive
that slow
nothings on the radio
Footsteps on the front porch
I hear my doorbell
She usually comes right in
now I can tell
Here comes goodbye
here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every
sleepless night
The first of every tear
Im gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing
things would never change
And she was right here
in my arms tonight
but here comes goodbye
I can hear her say
I love you like it was yesterday
And I can see it written
on her face that she had
never felt this way
One day I thought Id see her
with her daddy by her side
And violins would play
here comes the bride
Here comes goodbye
here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every
sleepless night
The first of every tear
Im gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things
would never change
And she was right here
in my arms tonight
but here comes goodbye
Why does it have to go
from to good to gone
Before the lights turn on
yeah and youre left alone
All alone but here comes goodbye

Here comes goodbye
here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every
sleepless night
The first of every tear
Im gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things
would never change
And she was right here
in my arms tonight
but here comes goodbye

I can hear the truck tires
coming up the gravel road
And its not like her to drive
that slow
nothings on the radio
Footsteps on the front porch
I hear my doorbell
She usually comes right in
now I can tell
Here comes goodbye
here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every
sleepless night
The first of every tear
Im gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing
things would never change
And she was right here
in my arms tonight
but here comes goodbye
I can hear her say
I love you like it was yesterday
And I can see it written
on her face that she had
never felt this way
One day I thought Id see her
with her daddy by her side
And violins would play
here comes the bride
Here comes goodbye
here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every
sleepless night
The first of every tear
Im gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things
would never change
And she was right here
in my arms tonight
but here comes goodbye
Why does it have to go

Before the lights turn on

All alone but here comes goodbye

Here comes goodbye
here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every

The first of every tear
Im gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things
would never change
And she was right here
in my arms tonight
but here comes goodbye

Everybody's laughing in my mind
Rumors spreading 'bout this other guy
Do you do what you did, what you did with me?
Does he love you the way I can?
Did you forget all the plans that you made with me?
'Cause baby, I didn't
That should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh
That should be me, this is so sad
That should be me, that should be me
That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts
This is so wrong, I can't go on
'Til you believe that that should be me
That should be me
You said you needed a little time for my mistakes
It's funny how you use that time to have me replaced
Did you think that I wouldn't see you out at the movies?
Whatcha doing to me?
You're taken' him where we used to go
Now if you're trying to break my heart
It's working 'cause you know
That, that should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh
That should be me, this is so sad
That should be me, that should be me
That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts
This is so wrong, I can't go on
'Til you believe that should be me
I need to know should I fight for our love or disown?
It's getting harder to shield this pain in my heart, ooh
That should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh
That should be me, this is so sad
That should be me, that should be me
That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts
This is so wrong, I can't go on
'Til you believe that that should be me, ooh
Holding your hand, that should be me
The one making you laugh, oh baby
Oh, that should be me, yeah
That should be me, giving you flowers
That should be me, talking for hours
That should be me, that should be me
That should be me
Never should've let you go
I never should've let you go
That should be me
Never should've let you go
That should be me
Never should've let you go
Never should've let you go
That should be me
