She said her mind was made up
As she put on her make-up Said there was nothing here for her She just packed up her suitcase And she walked right out that front gate With her taxi waiting at the curb Too many empty nights alone Too late I realize It's a cryin' shame it took her tears To open up my eyes I should have seen, Abilene On her mind Her leavin' me, and Tennessee Far behind Should have seen her growin' lonely All alone there waitin' on me All the warnin' sings were there But I was blind I should have seen Abilene On her mind Last night the band played Dallas I sang the song I wrote about us And you could feel the sadness in the air After the show was over I a hand lay on my shoulder Turned around and found her standin' there She said after all these years It's nice to know your dreams came true And the wedding band there on her hand Told me that hers had to I should have seen, Abilene On her mind Her leavin' me, and Tennessee Far behind Should have seen her growin' lonely All alone there waitin' on me All the warnin' sings were there But I was blind I should have seen Abilene On her mind I should have seen Abilene On her mind Abilene On her mind |

Blue skies go away, now don't you waste my time,
'Cause I don't have a place for you inside this heart of mine. You promise brighter days but never do come through. Ever since she went away, blue skies, I've got no use for you. But when I see the clouds come rollin' in, An' the heaven's turnin' grey, I can tell I'm back among good friends, Who know just what I crave. I admit it: I'm addicted to the rain. She always said she loved to hear it on the window pane. While the storm outside was ragin', we would love the night away: No wonder I'm addicted to the rain. There's a calm inside of me when I see lightning flash, And rain's sweet perfume fills me with hope that she just might come back. 'Cause I can hear her in the wind an' feel her in the mist. As I walk these streets, I'm wonderin' what went wrong an' where she is. The roll of thunder seems to ease, The pain I feel inside, And the pourin' rain no-one can see, These teardrops in my eyes. I admit it: I'm addicted to the rain. She always said she loved to hear it on the window pane. While the storm outside was ragin', we would love the night away: No wonder I'm addicted to the rain. I admit it: I'm addicted to the rain. She always said she loved to hear it on the window pane. I remember how she'd wake me, an' we'd love the night away: No wonder I'm addicted to the rain. |

In a brief an' open moment in an' ol' roadside cafe
Just outside a-Memphis in the dyin' light of day My eyes must have betrayed me, 'cause it was you, I could have sworn And time came to a standstill as a brand new ghost was born Yeah, a brand new ghost was born How can you tell the river from the rain When so much of you an' me and us remains? No matter what direction I go runnin' to It always comes back to you In the latest book I'm readin' in the crisp October air In a face I see in traffic in some yet unwhispered prayer You are everything and everyone and everywhere I go Hangin' like a mornin' mist that's burnin' off too slow You are burnin' off too slow How can you tell the river from the rain When so much of you an' me and us remains? No matter what direction I go runnin' to It always comes back to you Just like I always did Remindin' me, I'm such a fool to ever let you go How can you tell the river from the rain When so much of you an' me and us remains? No matter what direction I go runnin' to It always comes back to you |

from Golden Slumbers - A Father's Love (2005)
Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence My father would lift me high And dance with my mother and me And then Spin me around 'till I fell asleep Then up the stairs he would carry me And I knew for sure I was loved If I could get another chance Another walk Another dance with him I'd play a song that would never ever end How I'd love love love To dance with my father again When I and my mother Would disagree To get my way I would run From her to him He'd make me laugh just to comfort me yeah yeah Then finally make me do Just what my mama said Later that night when I was asleep He left a dollar under my sheet Never dreamed that he Would be gone from me If I could steal one final glance When final step One final dance with him I'd play a song that would never ever end Cause I'd love love love to Dance with my father again Sometimes I'd listen outside her door And I'd hear how mama would cry for him I'd pray for her even more than me I'd pray for her even more than me I know I'm praying for much to much But could you send her The only man she loved I know you don't do it usually But Dear Lord She's dying to dance with my father again Every night I fall asleep And this is all I ever dream ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By VANDROSS, LUTHER/MARX, RICHARD N <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

Would you believe this blacktop highway
Used to be a one-lane gravel road? Back when Johnny Cash was just somebody Daddy went to school with years ago When the cottonwoods reached to the sky An' honeysuckle vine grew all around My eyes well up with memories Every time I think about this little ol' town 'Cause I know there's bigger cities Full of all the sights and sounds Where people live in fear an' lock their doors Long before the sun goes down The drive-in picture show's been closed for years No superstores or midi-malls But everyday I thank the Lord he made Dyess, Arkansas I used to laugh at all the stories Daddy'd tell me 'bout the mischief he'd get in Dream of penny-candy an' nickel soda-pops Lord, what a dollar'd buy back then When livin' life was picture perfect Like a Norman Rockwell paintin' of the South Lord, I'd give almost anything To hear my Daddy tell the stories now He'd say, "I know there's bigger cities Full of all the sights and sounds Where people live in fear an' lock their doors Long before the sun goes down The drive-in picture show's been closed for years No superstores or midi-malls Still, everyday I thank the Lord he made Dyess, Arkansas" Yes, I know there's bigger cities But there ain't no better town Folks here don't live in fear an' lock their doors Long before the sun goes down The population sign ain't changed in years I guess it's destined to be small But everyday I thank the Lord he made Dyess, Arkansas Yeah, everyday I thank the Lord he made Dyess, Arkansas |

Time was, we couldn't wait to feel each other's touch
Couldn't stand to be apart too long or too much Now's a different situation, funny how love can start to fade How fast it goes from boom to bust Well, if I had my choice We'd part as friends, but it ain't up to me You told me to go where it don't snow Well, if that's how it's gonna be Just gimme two rails of steel Silver wings or eighteen wheels This ain't the first time in my life I been sent packin' with my pride All I need's a blacktop road Don't even matter where I go The moon an' stars will keep me company till the dawn An' when the sun comes up we'll both be glad I'm gone So you can keep your Dear John letter if it's all the same to you I've read the writin' on the wall, we're through Your own words of consolation, your self-righteous indignation Sound more like lies to tell the truth Feels good, I guess To get it off my chest before I'm up an' leave So you can save your sermon for someone else Instead of wastin' it on me Just gimme two rails of steel Silver wings or eighteen wheels This ain't the first time in my life I been sent packin' with my pride All I need's a blacktop road Don't even matter where I go The moon an' stars will keep me company 'till the dawn An' when the sun comes up we'll both be glad I'm gone Just gimme two rails of steel Silver wings or eighteen wheels This ain't the first time in my life I been sent packin' with my pride All I need's a blacktop road Don't even matter where I go The moon an' stars will keep me company 'till the dawn And when the sun comes up we'll both be glad I'm gone Glad I'm gone |

The moment was custom-made to order:
I was ridin' with my daughter on our way back from Monroe. An' like children do, she started playin' twenty questions, But I never could've guessed one would touch me to my soul. She said: "Daddy, when we get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way? "Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay? "Am I gonna see my Grandpa? Can I have a pair of wings? "An' do you think that God could use another Angel, "To help pour out the rain?" Well, I won't lie: I pulled that car right over, An' I sat there on the shoulder tryin' to dry my misty eyes. An' I whispered: "Lord, I want to thank you for my children. "'Cause your innocence that fills them often takes me by surprise." Like: "Daddy, when we get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way? "Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay? "Am I gonna see my Grandpa? Can I have a pair of wings? "An' do you think that God could use another Angel, "To help pour out the rain?" Well, I thought about it later on, An' a smile came to my face. An' when I tucked her in to bed, I got down on my knees an' prayed. Lord, when I get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way? "I don't want to come to visit 'cause I'm comin' home to stay? "An' I can't wait to see my family and meet Jesus face to face. "An' do you think, Lord, you could use just one more Angel, "To help pour out the rain?" Mmmm, can I help pour out the rain? |

In a simple life dreams die hard
You never let 'em go All the while you play your hands And you may never know Why it's always lady luck On someone else's palm they read You holding my two hands Is really all I need I can get by if it all fell through Right down to the bottom of my list I can get by lookin' back on life Find that I've too many things I've missed I can get by without doing All the crazy things some people do But I wouldn't want to try even Barely gettin' by without you Many things I've come to need That I could do without And many more I've done without I could come to need The one thing that I'd fight to keep Until my days are through Is when I lay me down to sleep I'm lyin' next to you I can get by if it all fell through Right down to the bottom of my list I can get by lookin' back on life Find that I've too many things I've missed I can get by without doing All the crazy things some people do But I wouldn't want to try even Barely gettin' by without you I can get by if it all fell through Right down to the bottom of my list I can get by lookin' back on life Finding I've too many things I've missed Barely gettin' by without you I can get by if it all fell through Right down to the bottom of my list I can get by lookin' back on life Find that I've too many things I've missed I can get by without doing All the crazy things some people do But I wouldn't want to try even Barely gettin' by without you |

Excuse me uh, but do you actually have yes in your vocabulary,
I guess it started when I was a kid, If you said I couldn't do it I did, Always had a stubborn streak, Put a wall in front of me, And I'll find a way to get around it, There was a friend who said I'd never make the team, A lot of small town talk said I'd never leave, Ah and you know who you are, You all played a part, In pushin' me on to my dream, I want to thank everone who ever told me no, Pack it up and get back home, It kept me going knowin' I would prove them wrong, Yea I knew it all along, Without 'm I might have given up a long time ago, and so, I want to thank everyone who ever told me no, Played my music for a man behind a desk, He said sorry what you've got I just don't get, Ah but here I am today, Standin' on this stage, And I wonder even now if he gets it yet I want to thank everyone who ever told me no, Pack it up and get back home, It kept me going knowin' I would prove them wrong, Yeah I knew it all along, Without 'm I might have given up a long time ago, and so, I want to thank everyone who ever told me no, The ones who said I'd never make it, Those who doubted I could take it, I'll owe ya one, I want to thank everyone who ever told me no, Pack it up and get back home, It kept me going knowin' I would prove them wrong, Yeah I knew it all along, Without 'm I might have given up a long time ago, and so, I want to thank everyone who ever told me no, Yea I want to thank everyone who ever told me no, |

I stood out on the trestle waitin' for the whistle
The 409 was right on time again Lord, I'd a-got a lickin' if they caught me playin' chicken But I was quite the practiced liar way back then I saw the smoke above the treetops And when the train came into view I stood still as a statue, but I knew what to do When I could read the numbers on the front I'd run like a gypsy, like the hounds of hell'd get me Like a rabbit on the wrong end of a gun I'd run like the lightning cuttin' 'cross the Kansas skyline Like the tears that momma cried for her lost son I'd run, yeah, I'd run I got older but no smarter an' cheatin' fate got harder But I could still out wit the Devil and his friends Went through whiskey, cards an' women, takin' more than I was givin' Throwin' love and caution to wind Every time I'd let some beauty get a little too close to me She'd hang around just long enough to find herself the key When I could feel the lock on my heart come undone I'd run like a gypsy, like the hounds of hell'd get me Like a rabbit on the wrong end of a gun I'd run like the lightning cuttin' 'cross the Kansas skyline Like the tears that momma cried for her lost son I'd run, yeah, I'd run There's broken hearts and broken bottles Dreams all gone to dust Girls gone home to momma and cars all gone to rust If I could go back and undo the hurt I'd done I'd run like a gypsy, like the hounds of hell'd get me Like the rabbit on the wrong end of a gun I'd run like the lightning cuttin' 'cross the Kansas skyline Like the tears that momma cried for her lost son I'd run, yeah, I'd run, you know I'd run, yeah I'd run |

And tell me how it was in the old country Famine and floods and crops that failed I'd listen for hours as he told his tale He said, "There must have been a curse on the family name" But he swore he'd be the one to break that chain With money that he saved from the sweat of his brow He'd get 'em out of there, someday, somehow [Chorus] Well, he never was much of a gamblin' man But he dreamed of passage to the Promised Land Bet it all on a better life in America He said, "We'll change our fate, and this danged O'Reilly Luck" I can only imagine the look on his face Tickets in hand, as they counted the days Eleven passports, no turnin' back Decidin' what they should and shouldn't pack But the baby caught the fever just days before And the doctor hung a sheet on their front door For two long weeks they were quarantined Stranded with nothin' but a shattered dream [Chorus] Granddaddy told this story 'til he passed away How the people all cheered from the dock that day While he shook his fist with a tear in his eye At the beautiful ship of the White Star Line And he cursed his fate and his danged O'Reilly Luck As the mighty Titanic, sailed into the sun [Chorus] Danged O'Relly Luck" |

And it brings me to my knees Sometimes, I feel as though the things I know I can't control Somehow find a way to take control of me At the point I can no longer fight it The only way I can describe it That feelin' when I'm feelin' all alone I wanna run away, run away home Sometimes, it gets so hard to find that silver linin' When the clouds come rollin' in A sky of blue turns to gray and there's no shelter from the rain And it feels as though the storm will never end That's when there's nothin' like a mother's arms To break the fall and heal the scars In those times when I feel lost and all alone I wanna run away, run away home Long enough to get my feet back on the ground Where I can rest and catch my breath and lay my burdens down Back where no one knows me except those few who love me only For who I was, not what I am, where I can be myself again Sometimes I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders And it brings me to my knees Sometimes, I feel as though the things I know I can't control Somehow find a way to take control of me At the point I can no longer fight it The only way I can describe it That feelin' when I'm feelin' all alone I wanna run away, run away home I wanna run away, run away home |

Hold me each evening by your side Tell me you love me for a million years Then if it don't work out If it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye Sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss Soften my dreams with your sigh Tell me you love me for a million years Then if it don't work out If it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye IF you must go I won't grieve If you'll wait a lifetime Before you leave If you must go no I won't grieve If you'll wait a lifetime Before you leave Them if you must go mmmm I won't tell you no Just so that we can say we tried (we tried) Tell me you love me for a million years Then if it don't work out If it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye |

He's three-feet tall and four years old
An' still believes that I can do no wrong When I get home at five o'clock He's waitin' with that Cowboys jersey on I laugh 'cause he's just like his Dad He'll miss the ball an' he'll get mad Thinks when he grows up, he'll catch 'em all Then I get down on my knees an' tell him "Sometimes, even Daddies drop the ball" [Chorus] It's times like these that I realize They don't stay little long You blink your eyes an' turn around Before you know it, they're grown up an' gone I've been takin' time for granted Now I'm gonna take advantage of every golden opportunity Make the most of every moment While we still have times like these I could go to work this Saturday Lord knows, that I could use the overtime But I'll be sittin' there behind home plate Cheerin' on that little man of mine Yeah, the extra pay would sure be nice But it's worth any sacrifice To see my little slugger's first at bat An' when he looks up in the stands an' sees me Man, you can't put a price on that [Chorus] I been takin' time for granted Now I'm gonna take advantage of every golden opportunity Make the most of every moment While we still have times like these I've been takin' time for granted Now I'm gonna take advantage of every golden opportunity Make the most of every moment While we still have times like these Thank God for times like these |

Today I started loving you again
I'm right back where I've really always been I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend Then today I started loving you again What a fool I was to think I could get by With only these few million tears I cried I should have known the worst was yet to come And the crying time for me had just begun Cause today I started loving you again I'm right back where I've really always been I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend And today I started loving you again Well today I started loving you again I'm right back where I've really always been I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend And today I started loving you again Then today I started loving you again |

I remember Sunday mornings walking on the beach
And that place we'd stop for breakfast with the old red vinyl seats The hours of the tide chart The way the sunlight dance upon your face That antique roller coaster you just had to ride I remember how you laughed at the terror in my eyes The color and the detail Just like it was yesterday And I remember how you held me the night my father died I didn't have to tell you I just broke down and cried You're sewn into the fabric, the pieces of my life And I just can't remember why we said goodbye Up and down this boardwalk lonely people sit I know it wasn't perfect but nothin' ever is The sails out in the harbor Are searching for the wind I just had to call you, I had to hear your voice And tell you I still love you we still have a choice You're sewn into the fabric, the pieces of my life And I just can't remember why we said goodbye Everything I do Leads back to you I know I just can't let us go There must have been a reason, but I can't remember now I know if I could hold you we could work it out You're sewn into the fabric the pieces of my life And girl let's give it one more try 'Cause I just can't remember why we said goodbye |

I was comin' off of a heartache;
Addin' up all my mistake: you know how it is. An' I was beatin' up myself up real good, Over all those "shoulda coulds but never dids". An' I could lose myself in my self-pity, But I done that an' that ain't pretty, An' somewhere in this mess I've made, Is my philosophy. That if you don't jump every chance you get, Roll a dice an' run some risks, If you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly? An' if you don't break an' you don't bruise, If you don't look back an' laugh at one or two, Wrong moves in your life, You ain't doin' it right. I've been flush an' flat broke, Made some lousy bets, but that's ok, yeah that's all right. 'Cause never gamblin', never losin', Is a sorry substitution for livin' life. Yeah, I've got scars that I'm proud of, I been down but I got up, An' the only thing I know about love is, There ain't no guarantees. So if you don't jump every chance you get, Roll a dice an' run some risks, If you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly? An' if you don't break an' you don't bruise, If you don't look back an' laugh at one or two, Wrong moves in your life, You ain't doin' it right. So go ahead an' put the bow to the fiddle, Pick you a spot an' jump in the middle, Love just a little, Then love just a little more. If you don't jump every chance you get, Roll a dice an' run some risks, If you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly? And if you don't break an' you don't bruise, And if you don't look back an' laugh at one or two, Wrong moves in your life, You ain't doin' it right. Naw, you ain't doin' it right. |

So long fellas, I gotta go
Told her I wasn't gonna be, but an hour or so I know she's bound to worry, 'bout me and that old car It's not that she don't trust me, But you know how women are A few weeks back, they took my job The money's tight, time's are gonna be hard I know what's on her mind, but she ain't said a word so far She's tryin' not to let it show, But you know how women are She's stands right beside me, win or lose She'll reach deep down inside and find a way to pull me through She can see the silver lining, in the darkest of news She loves to hear me say "I love you", whispered in the dark YOu know how women are Sent her flowers, the other day We had words, and you know I had my say I knew right then that I was wrong, I thought "Damn, my foolish heart" Because she means the world to me, And you know how women are She's stands right beside me, win or lose She'll reach deep down inside and find a way to pull me through She can see the silver lining, in the darkest of news She loves to hear me say "I love you", whispered in the dark You know how women are So long fellas, you know are women are |
