I need a hand with my worrisome heart
I need a hand with my worrisome heart
I would be lucky to find me a man
who could love me the way that I am
with this here worrisome heart

I need a break from my troubling ways
I need a break from my troubling ways
I would be lucky to find me a man
who could love me the way that I am
with all my troubling ways

I need a man who got no baggage to claim
I need a man who got no baggage to claim
I would be lucky to find me a man
who could love me the way that I am

A worrisome troubling baggage free modern day dame.
A worrisome troubling baggage free modern day dame.
Ain't nobody the same

Boys like to think they can have it all
Well they don`t know they`re still so small
All that they see is live is opportunity
Guys like to think they`ll get any girl
That just one look, one quick twirl
That these acts alone will buy him a way into my home
No well they don`t know, no they don`t know
All that I`m dreaming of
They don`t know you know that they don`t know
That all that I need is love
So much of these times have been physical
Well all the love now where`d it go?
Could it be my words are all together totally absurd
All of the men I know laugh at me
They don`t listen, they can`t see
I`m falling apart `cause no one will acknowledge my heart
No they don`t know, no they don`t know
All that I`m dreaming of
They don`t know, you know that they don`t know
That all that I need is love
So I'll take my thoughts and just walk away
Well I`ve said all that I can say
But I`m still dreaming of
The day that I will find my love
The day that I will find my love
The day I will find my love

I won't wake up To the sound of your feet
Walking down the hall
Like a soft heartbeat I won't wake up
Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone
I won't look back
On a past so long
I won't look back
On the things gone wrong
I won't look back
Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone.
I won't have words I've said all that there is to say
I won't have words
Cause I know you'll just throw them away
I won't have words
Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone
By the time that I do you'll be gone
By the time that I do you'll be gone

Sweet Memory Talking bout a sweet memory
It goes round and round in my head
Pretty soon I'll want the real thing instead
But for now I got this sweet memory

Sunny day Sunny day
Not a cloud crosses the sky
Not a tear comes to my eye
On this sunny day

Sweet Memory Talking about a sweet memory
It goes round and round in my head
Pretty soon I'll want the real thing instead
But for now I got this sweet memory
Sweet Memory Sweet Memory

Well I'm buckled up inside
It's a miracle that I'm alive
I do not think I can survive
On bread and wine alone
To think that I could have fallen
A centimeter to the left
Would not be here to see the sunset
Or have myself a time

Well why do the hands of time
So easily unwind

Some lessons we learn the hard way
Some lessons don't come easy
That's the price we have to pay
Some lessons we learn the hard way
They don't come right off and right easy
That's why they say some lessons learned we learn the hard way

Remember the sound of the pavement
World turned upside down
City streets unlined and empty
Not a soul around
Life goes away in a flash
Right before your eyes
If I think real hard well I reckon I've had some real good times

Well why do the hands of time
So easily unwind

Some lessons we learn the hard way
Some lessons don't come easy
That's the price we have to pay
Some lessons we learn the hard way
They don't come right off and right easy
That's why they say some lessons learned we learn the hard way

I'm burnin' up
Burnin' oh a oh, oh oh
Quiet fire

Take, take my hand
Do with it what you will
I'm in dire need

'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh oh
Well all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh

You walk away
Nothin' left to say, but
Bye bye blue eyes and I
Whoa you know that I
I don't understand
No oh, oh oh

'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh oh
Well all I want is somebody to love me like I do

Well you can call me up for crazy
Call me certifiably nuts
All for love

What do you get for lettin' me win so easily?
Put up your dukes baby, what are you made of?

This isn't right, no this isn't right
You know that I'm not one to fuss
But what have you done to me?
You hardly make love to me now, whoa
My poor heart's about to burst
Right out of its seams

'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh oh
Well all I want is somebody to love me like I do

Burnin' up
Quiet fire

One day you will be mine
The clouds will part the sun will shine
One day you will be mine
One day you will arise
To see the stars within my eyes
One day you will be mine
(repeat first)

Love me Love me Love me Say you do
Let me fly away with you Mm

Love me like a river does
Cross the sea
Love me like a river does
Endlessly
Love me like a river does
Baby don't rush you're no waterfall
Love me that is all

Love me like roaring sea
Swirls about
Love me like a roaring sea
wash me out
Love me like a roaring sea
Baby don't rush you're no waterfall
Love me that is all

Love me like the earth itself
Spins around
Love me like the earth itself
Sky above below the ground
Love me like the earth itself
Baby don't rush you're no waterfall
Love me that is all

goodnite
close your eyes and just sleep tight
I'll lie awake and watch you dream
to be sure that all of your dreams are pure

my dear don't you worry bout a thing
I'll be near to you all night
and through the evening
I'll be by your side

so goodnite
close your eyes and just sleep tight
I'll lie awake and watch you dream
to be sure that all of your dreams are pure

(whistles)

while you slumber
in case you ever wonder
if a summer breeze just brushed your cheek
know its me

and goodnite
close your eyes and just sleep tight
I'll lie awake and watch you dream
to be sure that all of your dreams are pure
