Jimmy Wayne Album

This old four way stop
I've been here a lot
More times then I can count

Right goes to mamaa's place
Left to the interstae
Sraight ahead goes straght through town

It's good to be home
I waited way too long
A part of my heart has never been gone

[Chorus:]
'cause i'm not one bit closer to being over you
It's almost like the hands of time haven't moved
'cause everywhere i look i see your memory
Hanging round
They ought to name this town after you

There's where we used to park
The night my truck wouldnt start
We gave into love the very first time
There's where you said you'd wait
Till i came back someday
Too many some days slipped on by

That's where you live now
Elm street, second house
I can't blame you girl for settlin' down

[Chorus]
'cause i'm not one bit closer to being over you
It's almost like the hands of time haven't moved
'cause everywhere i look i see your memory
Hanging round
They ought to name this town after you

You, after you
Things will never be the same
But then again after you
Everything is still the same

[Chorus]
'cause i'm not one bit closer to being over you
It's almost like the hands of time haven't moved
'cause everywhere i look i see your memory
Hanging round
They ought to name this town after you

Tell me what else can I do, tell me what else can I say,
The closer that I get to you, the further you push me away,
Till I don't know where, to go, and I don't know why I stay,
Do you even care, or am I, some little game you play

(chorus)
Are you ever gonna need me baby, like I need you,
Are you ever gonna want me baby, the way I want you to,
I know that you love me,
And oh I know down deep you do,
But are you ever gonna love me,
The way I love you

(verse 2)
I never know how you feel,
I can't read your mind,
I just keep waitin, am I, just wasting time,

(chorus)
Are you ever gonna need me baby, like I need you,
Are you ever gonna want me baby, the way I want you to,
I know that you love me,
And oh I know down deep you do,
But are you ever gonna love me,
Are you ever gonna love me,
The way I love you

I found peace of mind, I'm feeling good again
I'm on the other side, back among the living
Ain't a cloud in the sky, all my tears have been cried
And I can finally say

Chorus:
Baby baby stay, stay right where you are
I like it this way, it's good for my heart
I haven't felt like this in God knows how long
I know everything's gonna be ok
If you just stay gone

I still love you, and I will forever
We can't hide the truth, we know each other better
When we try to make it work, we both end up hurt
And it ain't supposed to be that way

CHORUS

When we try to make it work, we both end up hurt
Love ain't supposed to be that way

CHORUS

I know everything's gonna be ok
If you just stay gone

Cool river
Hot August night
Her sweet body next to mine
Lonesome whistle
Moans in the distance
Young hearts poundin'
No resistance

There was a sign on the fence
But we found our way in
Didn't feel wrong
Spent all night long trespassin'

Jealous moon
Sneakin' through the trees
Cattails whisper in the midnight breeze
Tangled hair
Tremblin' hands
The whole town sleeps while shadows dance

There was a sign on the fence
But we found our way in
Didn't feel wrong
Spent all night long trespassin'

Forgotten secrets
Race through my mind
Leave me wonderin' where she is tonight

There was a sign on the fence
But we found our way in
Didn't feel wrong
Spent all night long trespassin'

(verse)
Every day after Thanksgiving sell,
Malls just ain't complete,
Without a bunch of decorations and a paper angel tree,


(bridge)
There's artificial smiles on artificial tree limbs,
sayin what she'd love to have and what to buy for him,


(verse 2)
Well I hope Maggie likes her new winter clothes,
And her buggie with a baby doll,
And maybe Thomas smile in his new Nike shoes,
When he shoots that basketball,

(bridge)
I can't help but wishin, that I could do more,
But not just while I'm shoping in the department store,


(chorus)
Paper angels you're in my thoughts and prayers,
No matter where you are right now,
Remember God's right there,
He's asking all of us,
To help take care of all his paper angels everywhere,

(verse 3)
Goin through the mail on this stary afternoon,
I see a mom and dad's worse dream,
Their on the back of a money-savin-add,
To get my carpet clean,

(bridge)
Height, weight, hair, eyes, date missin, and D.O.B.
A child's picture and the words Have you see me,

(chorus)
Paper angels you're in my thoughts and prayers,
No matter where you are right now,
Remember God's right there,
He's asking all of us,
To help take care of all his paper angels everywhere

(bridge)
His documented bruises, film, a folder and a file,
She's a second grade self portrait drawn without a smile,
And every town has litter with this kind of debree,
We've got to stop this madness, it's up to you and me

(chorus)
Paper angels you're in my thoughts and prayers,
No matter where you are right now,
Remember God's right there,
He's asking all of us,
To help take care of all his paper angels everywhere,
Paper angels everywhere

Baby when i look at you
You know it breaks my heart in two
How beautiful you are
I've seen you in a million dreams
Now you're finally here with me
We will never be apart
I wanna hold you forever
That's all i'll ever need

[Chorus:]
You are my love
You are my life
My heart and soul
The truest friend i've ever known
You are my world
All of my dreams
My fantasy, my reality
I love everything you are

Every time i close my eyes
It hits me so deep inside
How real this feeling is
I'm intoxicated by your touch
It's a sweet, sweet rush
I'm in love with your kiss
You're the one i trust the most
You changed me

[Chorus:]
You are my love
You are my life
My heart and soul
The truest friend i've ever known
You are my world
All of my dreams
My fantasy, my reality
I love everything you are

[Chorus:]
You are my love
You are my life
My heart and soul
The truest friend i've ever known
You are my world
All of my dreams
My fantasy, my reality
I love everything you are

Everything, i love everything you are

Fingertips tappin' on the table top
She's right there with you but she's not
It's like she hears other voices when you talk
She can't stop
She's gotta go, doesn't know where, don't know why

[Chorus:]
She runs away
She runs right to it
So fast she'll run right through it
I don't ask her where she has to be
But sometimes she runs to me

She's a born-again burnin' restless soul
Leaves a sweet empty place when she goes
Oh i love her and i wanna tell her so
She says don't
She can't stay, can't say why, she won't try

[Chorus:]
She runs away
She runs right to it
So fast she'll run right through it
I don't ask her where she has to be
But sometimes she runs to me

She needs to be free
But when she needs someone
She runs to me

She runs away
She runs right to it
So fast she'll run right through it
I don't ask her where she has to be
But sometimes
She runs away
She runs right to it
So fast she'll run right thourgh it
I dont ask her where she has to be
But sometimes she runs to me

Ooh (she runs)
She runs to me
Ooh

I had a dream last night
That you weren't in my life
It felt so real, that I

Woke up reachin' for you baby
What would I do, if ever I lost you?

Chorus:
I would walk this earth
I would sail the seas
I would climb the highest mountain
Get down on my knees
And pray for a miracle
God bring her back to me
That's what I'd do
But it was just a dream, just a dream

Never before, have I
Felt so much relief inside
Till I opended my eyes
And you, were lying there beside me baby
What would I do, if I ever lost you?

Chorus:
I would walk this earth
I would sail the seas
I would climb the highest mountain
Get down on my knees
And pray for a miracle
God bring her back to me
That's what I'd do
But it was just a dream, just a dream

And thank God that's all it was
But it proved to me how much
I love you, and without you, what would I do?

Chorus:
I would walk this earth
I would sail the seas
I would climb the highest mountain
Get down on my knees
And pray for a miracle
God bring her back to me
That's what I'd do
But it was just a dream, just a dream

We were like a pair of shoes, you never saw one of us
Without the other, we were brothers but we weren't kin
Those neighborhood football games was the only time
You might ever see us on different teams back then
Ah we'd cuss one another for all that the other was worth
But in out hearts we were only cussing each other's shirt

[Chorus:]
I wore blue and he wore brown
But we both knew the colors didn't count
At the end of the day we'd walk away
There was no doubt that we were friends for life
I wore blue and he wore brown

We lost touch, i got a job working for the state
He did a crime, got some time, oh i'd never thought
That waitin' for the transfer bus to arrive at gate number one
When it pulled up he'd step off in cuffs, oh how i fought
Back the tears as i led him down to cell block three
He said i know you're just doing your job, as i turned the key
And i just like those football games that we played in
There we stood on different sides again

[Chorus:]
I wore blue and he wore brown
But we both knew the colors didn't count
At the end of the day we'd walk away
There was no doubt that we were friends for life
I wore blue and he wore brown

True friends are few and far between
But nothing comes between true friends

[Chorus:]
I wore blue and he wore brown
But we both knew the colors didn't count
At the end of the day we'd walk away
There was no doubt
I wore blue and he wore brown
I wore blue and he wore brown

He can't remember the times that he thought
Does my daddy love me?
Probably not
But that didn't stop him from wishing that he did
Didn't keep from wanting or worshiping him

He guesses he saw him about once a year
He could still feel the way he felt
Standing in tears
Stretching his arms out as far as they'd go
Wispering daddy, I wan't you to know

Chorus
I love you this much and I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind, do you love me to?
However long it takes
I'm never giving up
No matter what, I love you this much

He grew to hate him for what he had done
'Cause what kind of a father, could do that to his son
He said 'damn you daddy', the day that he died
The man didn't blink, but the little boy cried

Chorus

Half way through the service
While the choir sand a hymn
He looked up above the preacher
And he sat and stared at him

He said "Forgive me father"
When he realized
That he been unloved or alone all his life
His arms were stretched out as far as they'd go
Nailed to the cross, for the whole world to know

Chorus

I aint't the best, I aint' the worst
Won't be the last, sure ain't the first
Man who ever had a dream the finally got a break
So don't take this wrong, I know I'm belessed
But what you see is what you get
My own interpretation of what's missing most these days
Identity, a real point of view
A little honesty, things all could use

Chorus
I don't think the world's all bad
That life is cheap and love don't last
In fact I think it's just a few who'd like us to believe that's true
I think most are sick and tired of all the hip and uninspired
Saying cool is in and good is out
I bet I've go tyour attention now oh and if I don't then
You're the one I'm talkin to
You're the one I'm talkin to

I'm tired of seeing youthful eyes
Growing up desensitized
By what thy're seeing on TV, believing that's reality
That sex is love and life's a game
Where all the winners look th same
Designer jeans, expensive shoes, imported cars and attitudes
What happened to individuality
The right to choose your own destiny?

Chorus

I Don't believe the world's all bad
That life is cheap and love don't last
That cool is in and good is out
Have I got your attnetion now?
'Cause if I dont' then
You're the one I'm talkin to
You're the one I'm talkin to

The kids were in the living room
Watching cartoons
She could here 'em laughing from the kitchen

At that big ol' hunter runnin' round
Trying to chase that rabbit down
She just stood there washin' thinkin'

Chorus
What goes aroung comes around
There's no doubt
We'll have to answer for the things we've done
When the tables turn and they will turn
Mark my words
It ain't gonna be fun when the rabbit gets the gun

The coffee's still sittin' in the pot
His temper's hot
And she knows he's just lookin' for a readon
AS he comes stormin' down the hall
She's wishin' there was a hole to crawl
Into, but there isn't

Chorus

She stood there without a work
Thinkin' maybe I deserve
All that I've got comin' from him
But when he handed down that verdict
And the whole courtroom heard it
Even the judge himself was smiling

Chorus

When the tables turn and they will turn
Mark my words
It ain't gonna be fun when the rabbit gets the gun

What's up now doc?
