By now I really should be over you
But I might as well just give up tryin'
You've got what's missin' deep inside of me
And I want it back, girl you know it's mine.

Chorus:
Send back my heart if you don't want it
Send back my heart girl, the one you stole away
You've made it plain, your names not on it
So don't put me through one more blue and lonely day
Send back my heart.

I've found somebody else who wants my love
But I can't give her what she needs
Every thing she's wantin' still ain't mine to give
So won't you let it go, please baby please,

Chorus:
Send back my heart if you don't want it
Send back my heart girl, the one you stole away
You've made it plain, your names not on it
So don't put me through one more blue and lonely day
Send back my heart.

I've tried to forget you girl just like you told me to
But baby that's impossible, so now it's up to you.

Chorus:
Send back my heart if you don't want it
Send back my heart girl, the one you stole away
You've made it plain, your names not on it
So don't put me through one more blue and lonely day
Send back my heart.
Send back my heart.

Oh, send back my heart...

I'm gonna change my way of doin' things around here
well, I'm turning over a new leaf, gonna get myself in gear
'Cause I've got a woman who's better than most,
and I've made a mess of her plans,
Startin' today, all I'm gonna be is her man

'Cause I've been a wild catter, and a go-go getter
Been an S.O.B. right down to the letter
I've had misadventures, I've even got pictures
I'm even more than I can stand
But startin' today, all I'm gonna be is her man

I'm gonna give it all back, 'cause all I've done is take
Well I've put her on the back burner while I was out on the make
But I've got a woman who's good enough to give me
A second chance again
And startin' today, all I'm gonna be is her man

'Cause I've been a wild catter, and a go-go getter
Been an S.O.B. right down to the letter
I've had misadventures, I've even got pictures
I'm even more than I can stand
startin' today, all I'm gonna be is her man

I'm a little bit late but I'm wisin' up
Now I'm takin' her by the hand
And startin' today, all I'm gonna be is her man

. . .


They say nothin' lasts forever
Honey, I've got good news
Whoever said that
Never got the blues from you

This cloud I'm under
Looks like it's gonna stay
The thunders gonna roll
Forever and a day

Nothing's gonna change
The way I think and feel
My heart is so heavy
And my fate is sealed

Lord, stop this misery
Every night I pray
E'm knowin' that it's there
Forever and a day

Forever and a day
You're stuck here in my mind
Forever and a day
It's such a long, long time

I tell myself again
That I just can't swim
This river of regret
That I'm drownin' in

You've left with this feeling
That I just can't shake
My spirit's gonna sink
Forever and day

Forever and a day
You're stuck here in my mind
Forever and a day
It's such a long, long time

Forever and a day
You're stuck here in my mind
Forever and a day
It's such a long, long time

It's such a long, long time...

. . .


(Glenn Sutton/Billy Sherrill)

Chorus:
Now love is pouring through the windows
Comin' through the door
I can feel it creepin' through the cracks in the floor
Bouncin' off the walls and the ceilin' up above
Since I found you I'm livin' in a house of love

All my life my hear's been walked on
Women said they loved me my how they talked tellin' me lies
And fillin' my eyes with tears that I couldn't control
I couldn't get a hold of myself long enough to realize
They were only tryin' to pull the wool over my eyes
I found you then the skies turned blue
I'm livin' in a house of love

Once I lived in a hole like a rabbit
I couldn't find love the blues were a habit
A lonely man and I couldn't understand
Why everything I tried went wrong
'Til you came alone bless your heart and showed me the right way
You dried my eyes and turned my night to day
And I'm so proud I wanna holler our loud
Tell the world about my house of love



. . .


The day that we met
I'll never forget
Was the luckiest day of my life
She took me so far
And I broke her heart
Now I'm sittin' here
With the simple truth
That tears me apart

All I had goin' is gone
The best I'll ever do
Is over and done
It serves me right
'Cause I did her wrong
Now all I had goin' is gone

Sometimes a man
Just don't understand
He possesses everything life can bring
He thinks there's more
So he has to explore
Leavin' her alone
Time after time
'Til she walked out my door

All I had goin' is gone
The best I'll ever do
Is over and done
It serves me right
'Cause I did her wrong
Now all I had goin' is gone

Now it serves me right
She left me alone
Now all I had goin' is gone...

(Jake Kelly - Gary Allan)

Used heart for sale scratched and dented
But it runs real well
Like you a lot so I'll cut you and deal
Used heart for sale.

First owner Peggy, treated it rough
She took it over some tough roads
She skipped town when it broke down
She never paid off what she owed.

Used heart for sale scratched and dented
But it runs real well
Like you a lot so I'll cut you and deal
Used heart for sale.

Cindy picked up where Peggy left off
Whoa, how she made it shine
Soon after then some mutual friend
Robbed Miss Cindy blind.

Used heart for sale scratched and dented
But it runs real well
Like you a lot so I'll cut you and deal
Used heart for sale.

--- Instrumental ---

Took about every cent I had
To get it out of hock
I spent the last month fixin' it up
Now it's rollin' off the blocks.

Used heart for sale scratched and dented
But it runs real well
Like you a lot so I'll cut you and deal
Used heart for sale.

Used heart for sale.
Used heart for sale...

. . .


Of all the hearts
In this big ol' world
Please tell me
Why did you have to break mine
For every tear I've cried
There must be a million fills
That could have caught your eye

What were the odds
That you and I would meet
We were just strangers
On a crowded street

Of all the hearts
That you could have loved
And left oh
Why did it have to be mine

Whatever made you
Choose me above the rest
Is there some unlucky
Charm that I possess

Of all the hearts
In this big ol' world

. . .


(Garth Brooks/Kent Maxon)

He asked her to dance three songs ago
Now she pulls him closer as the music slows
The lights are growin' dim it's just her and him and the band
Funny, I used to love this song
I though it was our song but I guess I was wrong
From where I'm sittin' I can see where I stand

Chorus:
From where I'm sittin' I can see where I stand
She's got her head on his shoulder and her heart in his hands
Thing's are pretty clear when a fool understands
Lord, from where I'm sittin' I can see where I stand

I've never seen her dance like that before
Don't think I can take much of this anymore
He's no longer the stranger and it looks like I am
I always dreamed I'd see that look in her eyes
But I never dreamed it would be for some other guy
And from where I'm sittin' I can see where I stand



. . .


I'm the center of attention in this bar room

Cause I've got the biggest
heartache of the year

And each night those swingin' doors
reach out to me and draw me in

'Cause they know each night that I'll be
back to wine me up again
Chorus
Wine me up turn me and
watch me cry for you

Lately drinkin' warm red wine is all
I want to do

I never know how tight I'll wine me up'
til I walk in

I don't care cause I'll be back to
wine me up again

I'd like to thank the folks who raise
the grapes way out in California

And I'm hopin this will be their biggest year
'Cause scarlet waters all that's left to
keep me hangin on

That's why I'll try to wine me up
each day and night next year

. . .


Used to sleep through the
night peacefully
Not a care in the world got to me
But now I lay me down to sleep
I'm afraid of what I might see
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by
Used to fell like a man in control
Unaware of the storm in my soul
The sight of you took away my breath
Looked so good scared me half to death
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by

Now in this dream I'm in a room
All dressed up just like a groom
Watchin' shadows dance on the ledge
Suddenly you then appear you
whisper in my ear

And I jump right over the edge
Just a dream that I seem to recall
Can't you tell me which doctor to call
Tell him please I'm not feelin too well
Every night I'm hearin' wedding bells

I wake up screamin' when your
dream goes by
I lay there in an ice cold sweat
Sheets are torn and they're soakin' wet
I wake up screamin' when your
dream goes by

I wake up screamin' when your
dream goes by

I wake up screamin' when your
dream goes by
