Billy Dean Album

Well I knew a man, he was a real go-getter
And what he did best was climb the ladder of success
How far he went was how he measured the worth of his life and who he was
But that's all behind me now because

Loving you it's what I do
It's the one thing I found I can put my heart into
It's who I am, I'm a lucky man living the life I choose
Loving you it's what I do

I do what I can to make an honest living
It's just a job it's not what I am living for
I wanna earn the love you're giving that's all that matters now to me
No matter what I'll always be

Loving you it's what I do
It's the one thing I found I can put my heart into
It's who I am, I'm a lucky man living the life I choose
Loving you it's what I do

Loving you it's what I do

A man filled with doubt, down and out and so alone.
A ship tossed and turned, lost and yearning for a home.
A survivor barely surviving, not really sure of his next move.
All of this I would of been if there hadn't been you.

If there hadn't been you, where would I be.
If there hadn't been you here for me.
I made it through times I never would've made it through.
If there hadn't been you.

A man filled with hope who finally knows where he belongs.
A heart filled with love more than enough to keep it strong.
A life that's alive again, no longer afraid to face the truth.
All of this I would of missed if there hadn't been you.

If there hadn't been you, where would I be.
If there hadn't been you here for me.
I made it through times, I never would've made it through.

If there hadn't been you on my side.
You in my life.
All my dreams would still be dreams,
If there hadn't been you.

All my dreams would still be dreams,
If there hadn't been you.

I've been away
Haven't seen you in a while
How've you been
Have you changed your style
And do you think
That we've grown up differently
Don't seem the same
Seems you've lost your feel for me

So let's leave it alone
'Cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guy
There ain't no bad guy
There's only you and me
And we just disagree

I'm goin' back
To a place that's far away
How 'bout you
Have you got a place to stay
Why should I care
When I'm just trying to get along
We were friends
Now it's the end of our love song

So let's leave it alone
'Cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guy
There ain't no bad guy
There's only you and me
And we just disagree

So let's leave it alone
'Cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guy
There ain't no bad guy
There's only you and me
And we just disagree

So let's leave it alone
'Cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guy
There ain't no bad guy
There's only you and me
And we just disagree

You made up your mind it was time it was over
After we had come so far.
I think there's enough pieces of forgiveness
Somewhere in my broken heart.

I would not have chose the road you have taken,
It has left us miles apart.
I think I can still find the will to keep going
Somewhere in my broken heart.

So fly. Go ahead and fly,
Till you find out who you are.
And I, I will keep my love unspoken
Somewhere in my broken heart.

I hope that in time you will find what you long for.
Love that's written in the stars.
When you finally do, I think you will see
It's somewhere in my broken heart.

Girl, I, I will keep my love unspoken
Somewhere in my broken heart.

I hope that in time you will find what you long for.
Love that's written in the stars.
When you finally do, I think you will see
It's somewhere in my broken
Somewhere in my broken
Somewhere in my broken heart.

(Billy Dean)

I came home from college to see my old man
He was sittin' on the porch swing, with a book in his hand
He stared at my earring, and at my tattoo
He smiled and shook his head and said
It's good to see you
He chose his words carefully cause it was hard for me to come
And he knew I had ta temper and where I got it from
I waited for the sermon, the one I knew so well
But this time he wasn't preachin'
About heaven or hell
He said a real man knows the value of a woman.

A real man has got nothin to prove
He's strenthened by love
And the Lord up above
So do the best that you can
To be a real man.

Could it be that I saw just a glimpse of his soul
Or maybe losin' Mama had just taken it's toll
He gave me his Bible, stained with tears he had cried
And I opened up the cover
Where he wrote inside
And it said.

A real man has got nothin to prove
He's strenthened by love
And the Lord up above
So do the best that you can
To be a real man.

Do the best that you can
To be a real man...

(Billy Dean/Dennis Morgan)

Don't be sad
'Cause what we had was so fine
Before we go let's go back
To where we met the first time
One last trip around the floor
And I'll hold you like I did before
Take my hand and I'll ask our friend in the band.

Play something we can dance to
Play something nice and slow
And maybe while we're waltzing I can change your mind
While the lights are low
Hey mister steel guitar man
Can you make her cry
Play something we can dance to
Before we say goodnight.

If you want
I'll drive you home just once more
Park the car then arm and arm
I'll walk you to your front door
I'll just let that motor run
Leave the windows down just for fun
'Cause you never know what we'll hear on the radio
They might.

Play something we can dance to
Play something nice and slow
And maybe while we're waltzing I can change your mind
While the lights are low
Hey mister steel guitar man
Can you make her cry
Play something we can dance to
Before we say goodnight.

Before she says goodbye...

It happens to a mother when she is giving birth
Her heart is filled with joy, while her body's filled with hurt
She holds her baby close to her despite the pain he caused
When it comes to love you don't count the cost

It happens to a soldier fighting for his home
Fear wells up inside him and yet he still goes on
Even though he knows he may be the next to fall
When it comes to love you don't count the cost

You don't count the heartache, you don't count the sacrifice
'Cause all that counts is what you feel inside
And it doesn't really matter what is gained or what is lost
When it comes to love, oh you don't count the cost

It happens all around us each and every day
Someone's giving all they've got for someone else's sake
And if you ever doubt it just think about the cross
When it comes to love you don't count the cost

You don't count the heartache, you don't count the sacrifice
'Cause all that counts is what you feel inside
And it doesn't really matter what is gained or what is lost
When it comes to love you don't count the cost

No

(David Gates/Billy Dean)

If I could find the heart to love again
Wouldn't make the same mistakes I did back then
I wouldn't write a day
Or let a moment slip away
To tell her just how much she means to me.

If I could find the one I've waited for
Wouldn't take her love for granted like before
I'd try to recognize
The "want to" in her eyes
And her hopes and dreams I'd hold so carefully
I wouldn't let it fall apart
If I Could find the heart to love again.
If I could find the heart to love again.

I really wouldn't know where to begin
Time is passin' by
Still I'm to afraid to try
If only I could trust like I did then
I would make a brand new start
If I could find the heart to love again.

'Cause what I'm searchin' for
Is that special kind of love
They're just not makin' anymore
That lasts through all the years
The kind of love that lives
Beyond the laughter and the tears.

So I'll just keep on lookin' round the bend
And someday soon I'll reach my journey's end
Together we will grow
With a love we've come to know
And promises we'll keep eternally
I wouldn't let it fall apart
I would make a brand new start
If I could find the heart to love again.
If I could find the heart to love again...

(Mike Reid/Michael Bourke)

There's a slow moon rising
It's shining on your skin
And the way your body moves me
I know there's no holding back
No holding back.

I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this
I wouldn't be a man
If a woman like you was anything but resist
I'd have to be from another planet
Where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this.

I can feel passion flowing
As you fall into my arms
And the secret way you touch me
I know there's no holding back
No holding back.

I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this
I wouldn't be a man
If a woman like you was anything but resist
I'd have to be from another planet
Where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this.

Roll with me baby all night long
Soul to soul with me baby all night long.

I'd have to be from another planet
Where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man
If I didn't feel like this...

(James Taylor)

I'm a steamroller baby
I'd like to roll all over you
Hey I'm a steamroller for your love
Like nothing better than to just roll all over you
I'm gonna inject your soul with
Some sweet old time rock & roll
Shoot you full of rhythm & blues.

I'm a cement mixer
A churnin' urn of burnin funk
I'm a cement mixer ooh boy
A churnin' urn of burnin funk
Hey I'm a demolition derby
A hefty hunk of steamin' junk, hey.

I'm a na-palm bomb lord
Guaranteed to blow your mind
I'm a na-palm bolb gonna blow your mind
If I can't have your love love
There won't be won't be nothin' left behind
Left behind girl.

I'm a steamroller baby
I'm bound to roll all over you lord
have mercy girl
I'm a steamroller for your love
Like nothin' better than just to just roll over you
If I can't have your love love
I'm gonna have nothin'
I'm gonna have nothin'
But them steam
Steamroller blues.
Yeah, yeah...
