Lovey Baby
03:36
|
|||
Well I met you in a crowd of pretty people
I told myself I wouldn't fall in love
But now we're on the road to the old church steeple
And oh sweet honey, you're still the one
Lovey baby, you're still the one
And now I don't know where I am
Or where I been, or where I'll be
But honey, I'll stick with you
'Cause as far as I can tell,
As I can touch, as I can see,
Sweet lady, our love gonna make it through
Now at first I must admit I wasn't hopin'
I didn't see much light inside your eyes
But every time you wake me in the morning
Oh, sweet sunshine, I'm still surprised
Lovey baby, I'm still surprised
That I don't know where I am
Or where I been, or where I'll be
But honey, I'll stick with you
'Cause as far as I can tell,
As I can touch, as I can see,
Sweet lady, our love gonna make it through
Sometimes we got hope
Sometimes it's hopeless
But sometimes all we got
And I'm so glad I spent sometime with you
Now the earthquakes they may shake and the clouds may tumble
And the hurricanes might blow us into bits
And the terrorists, they may leave us in the rubble
That's fine 'cause darling, our love don't quit
Lovey baby, our love will win
And now I don't know where I am
Or where I been, or where I'll be
But honey, I'll stick with you
Because as far as I can tell,
As I can touch, as I can see,
Sweet lady, our love gonna make it through, that's true
Lovey baby, our love gonna make it through!

Goin' Out There
04:50
|

Well, listen up pretty mama you been on my mind
I been dreamin' about you girl since the dawn of time
When fish could learn to talk, and dogs took to the moon
I been dreamin' about you darlin' since 1962
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out to see the ocean blue
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out to see my dream come true
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out
And I'm dreaming of you know who
For you I'd climb a mountain with a backpack of bricks
I would sail across an ocean with a pair of chopsticks
I would saddle up a zebra, if that's what pleases you
Yeah I'd do anything for you girl just to be close to you
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out to see the ocean blue
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out to see my dream come true
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out
And I'm dreaming of you know who
And even though you're just a figment of my imagination
I'd love to take you down to the railroad station
We could take a trip out west, to paradise only we could view
You know I do believe in heaven, if you believe in me too
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out to see the ocean blue
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out to see my dream come true
I'm goin' out there, I'm goin' out
And I'm dreaming of you know who

True Love
02:49

True love, she is patient boy
And true love, she is kind
True love don't got anything to prove
I've seen true love walk away,
It happens all the time
True love's trying to find its true love too
Beaming through the headlights
Burning through the night
It blinds you like the sun
True love she ain't wicked boy,
True love she ain't wise
True love rights the whole world's wrong
True love rides a motorcycle deep into the night
True love rides back home in time for tea for two
True love, she don't need to speak,
Just look her in the eyes
You'll find true love waiting there for you
Peering through the window,
Pouring in the rain,
It finds you every time
True love I can't hold it no more,
True love I can't wait
True love, don't you break this heart of mine

Just for a Moment
07:20
|

Applebee, the lights are low
And you're holding me, in your arms so slow
You kiss my cheek before I go
Tell me, what am I supposed to do?
And on the beach, we're digging holes
And you look at me as if I know
That some things speak, and some things show
That's why I'm close to you
Oh, but I got this feeling
That tomorrow you won't feel it
So tonight, I'm begging you
To hold me close, spin me right,
If just for a moment, tonight
Tonight, be mine
And in my bed, I'm losing sleep
'Cause you're in my head, and I'm in too deep
But I won't forget what you said to me,
"Honey, I just don't think we're gonna make it through"
But you're in my veins, honey you're in my blood
I'm off the reins, darlin' I'm in the mud
I prayed for rain, and you gave me sun
Now you burn me just by being you
Oh, now I can't believe it
I think I must, I must be dreaming
That tonight, I'm begging you
To hold me close, spin me right
If just for a moment, tonight
Tonight, darlin'
Love me slow, stride to stride,
If just for a moment, tonight
Tonight, be mine

Honey, don't light your candle
Honey, don't blow it out
Honey, don't take your sandals
'Cause the floorboard's leaking out
Honey, don't raise your wineglass
Honey, don't make a toast
Honey, don't pray to the dead man
'Cause he ain't no holy ghost
Honey, don't cast your anchor
Honey, don't rock the boat
Honey, you're in real danger
And I don't think this ship is gonna float
Honey, I can see the searchlight shining
But honey it's getting dim
And honey, they took all the lifeboats
So I guess we're gonna have to swim
Honey, don't turn that sail around
And honey, don't twist the wheel
Honey, better jump the deck right now
'Cause the wind ain't gonna heel
Honey, don't wake the sailors
Honey, just let 'em row
Honey, they don't need no favors
I don't think this ship's a gonna hold
Honey, please heed the warning
Honey, don't let it slide
'Cause honey, if you wait till morning
No one will survive
Honey, you could ignore me
And I would be alright
But please don't come a calling me
When the sea salt's in your eyes
I told you honey, don't cast your anchor
Honey, don't rock the boat
Honey, you're in real danger
And I don't think this ship's a gonna
I don't think this ship's a gonna float

Young Love
03:33
|

Young love, hold a mirror to my mind
And show me some kind of vision
I'm struck, stumbling through the night
I been trying to find something missing
Young love, put an arrow in my side
Young love, split me open wide
Young love, I'm in over my head tonight
I'm high as a kite but I'm falling
Old hate, you can point it on a map
On blood-spattered streets 'cross the nation
But love, WE DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S AT
In your arms embrace I'll be chasing
Young love, on the merry-go-round
Young love, spinning at the speed of sound
Young love, why did you let me down
On the dark side of town I was pleading
Don't bring me down, love
Don't bring me down, love
Don't bring me down, love
Young love, like a midsummer dream
Young love, weeping like a willow tree
Young love, crumbling like autumn leaves
I'm lost in that sleepless hollow
Young love, like the wind and rain
Young love, you sweep me off my feet again
Young love, what was I trying to say
I'm here for today, but tomorrow...

Oh My Love
04:42
|

Oh, my love
Oh, my love
Oh, my love
It's a long way home
It's a long way home, boys
Goodbye to you, my one and all
My once upon a time
I threw away my crystal ball
And now I walk the line
I saw a great distance,
A great distance,
A great missing you
But now I've gone that distance
I wish you'd gone there too
I used to think your love was all
And all was as it seemed
I saw you two-step through the wall
In my country western dreams
I saw the sun setting,
The sun setting
And I did not understand
That some things never settle,
They just drift like sand
Oh, my love
Oh, my love
Oh, my love
It's a long way home, boys
It's a long way home
Now I look upon this looming dawn
As I fly toward the west
I never thought that I could fall so long
I really thought I knew you the best
It's such a strange feeling
A strange feeling
And don't I know it too
That my true love, she's waiting
But she isn't you
No! She isn't you

Country Western Bar
03:03

Will you take me in your arms to the country western bar?
Country western bar, take me in your arms
Will you take me in your arms and fly me to the stars
When we turn to dust upon the earth?
We could cure these blues in our country western shoes
Country western shoes, dance the whole night through
We could dance the whole night through until our feet are bruised
When we turn to dust upon the earth
I feel our love is burning in me like a coffee cup
Just like a coffee cup, darlin', we better drink it up
We better drink it up before it's cold as mud
When we turn to dust upon the earth
Will you walk along my side down the city streets tonight?
City streets tonight, darlin', walk it all my life
Will you walk it all my life into the morning light
When we turn to dust upon the earth?
You know the wintertime is coming, and I can feel it on the midst
I feel it on the midst, darlin', won't you take this kiss
Darlin' won't you take this kiss before it's in the ditch
When we turn to dust upon the earth
And the big black moon is rising in the heavy metal skies
Heavy metal skies, darlin', lord I don't know why but
I'm gonna love you 'till the day I die
When we turn to dust upon the earth
When we turn to dust upon the earth.

When Winter Comes
03:42

When winter comes, please take me along
Out by the Rocky Mountains, coast of California,
The Sultan Sea, or to the stars above
I don't want to know, I don't really care
I just want to be alone with you there
