You were hangin' your feet off The tailgate of Billy Don's Ford I grew up in this little bitty town Never seen you before You were swayin' in the moonlight While the radio played And I've I've had that song in my head all day, yeah
It was a sweet Southern soulful thing That got me down deep You caught me starin' at you But you smiled back at me Started slingin' that air guitar Man, you sure can play And I've had that song in my head all day
I don't know who sings it I keep searchin' the radio I just wanna hear it So I can watch that video I got in my head of a blue-eyed boy Dancin' in the bed of a two-tone Ford Oh Lord, is it love? I just can't say (But I've) (I've had that song in my head all day) (Playin' in my head all day)
I said, 'How 'bout an autograph for 'ya Your biggest fan?' You wrote your name and your number In the palm of my hand My heart and that big bass speaker Were thumpin' away, and I I've had that song in my head all day
We could spend the day maybe melt away On some romantic coast, out in the tropics Oh baby, we could disappear Wintertime is almost here You'll stay warm with your hands inside my pockets
CHORUS: Nobody says we've gotta stick around Sometimes you've gotta look inside And find your own way out Somewhere you'll find an answer you can use But if it were me, I'd just be with you
You find it hard to sleep You fight the dark and try to keep some distant light To hold it all together Turning circles on your Ferris wheel Aren't you tired of climbing that hill? I could be the rain falling in your desert
REPEAT CHORUS
Oh baby, we could run away Search the world for a better place But me, I'll always wanna stay with you
Can't believe he took the coward's way out And did it over the phone If you ask me when it comes to him You're better off alone I hate to see my best friend Feeling like a dead end Thinking she was born to lose
CHORUS: I wish you could love yourself Oh, I wish you could love yourself The way that I do He never really knew the side of you That your friends all love You gotta be who you are 'cuz who you are Is more than enough There isn't any doubt Inside and out Your beauty comes sining through
REPEAT CHORUS
Oh, I wish you could love yourself Yeah, I wish you could see you The way that I see you
I wish you could love yourself Oh, I wish you could see you The way that I see you
Well, she started with a margarita Then she went to straight tequila And before the night was over, oh Her little secret was between us But she laughed, I cried And she said, "I'll be fine." Now she's barely walking and I'm thinking Wonder how long she's been drinking, like this She looks me in the eye and says, "I swear I'm quitting." I almost believed it Then she cried but she lies 'Cause that's what she said last Saturday night
CHORUS: How am I suppose to help Somebody when they tell you That they don't need help How am I suppose to reach a soul That doesn't know they need to save themselves My friend, I've done all I can do You've got to Help me, help you
Oh, I get home from work I turn the TV on The telephone's a ringing Her little girl is crying Says, "I can't wake mama up from sleeping." Well, I burned that road Opened up the door, she says, "Leave me alone."
REPEAT CHORUS
It's been 4 years and now I stand In the back of the room
She said, "I started with a margarita Then I went to straight tequila." 12 steps, 4 years, and 27 days And now I stand before you Help me, help you
So you met him at Shoney's and he gave you his card And you said you'd go out Friday night Well, he's a total stranger but he's tall and he's cute Girl, am I getting this right? Now didn't we cover all this ground last week? When the last loser left you alone Now here we are havin' the same conversation And I'm wonderin' if there's anbody home
CHORUS: Hello? Are you listening? Have you even heard a single word I've said? Hello, wake up and smell his cheap cologne How can I get it through your fairytale head? Clue phone's ringing Girl, it's for you, hello
It seems like you're always falling for the same guy You just change the face and the name But if you're gonna keep fishing in a pool of shallow water You can't give the fish all the blame Yeah, this is how it is, I'm your friend and I love you And I hate to see you hurting all the time Now don't you put me on hold 'cause your call waiting's saying That your Mr. Wrong is on the other line
Ever since I was a little girl You couldn't dare tell me a thing I was as subborn as they come I was such a drama queen Thought I was right and I could do no wrong
Some couldn've beens a few dead ends Some bumps along the way Some never should've been boyfriends That ended in heartache But I still try to see the brighter side
What goes up, don't always come back down What goes around, don't always come around
CHORUS: I've been down on my knees just a' beggin the Lord The Devils been knocking at my door I've been in the dark but I've always found the light Oh, I've been up and down this road before I keep on coming back for more And I still haven't figured a dang thing out about life Ooh, about life
I've lived and learned and I've been burned But it's all apart of me I've got bars around my heart But I still believe There's someone out there with the key
But I still dream and I won't gve up the fight And who knows if I'll ever get it right
REPEAT CHORUS
What goes up, don't always come back down What goes around, don't always come around
I'm gonna keep on, keepin' on I've been in the dark but I've always found the light Oh, I've been up and down this raod before I keep on coming back for more And I still haven't figured a dang thing out about life And I still haven't figured a dang thing out about life Oooh, about life
