Well this heart of mine has been hardened like a stone
It might take some time to get back what is gone
But I’m movin’ on and you don’t haunt my dreams
Like you did before oh when I would curse your name

Well I heard the news that you were back in town
Just passin’ through to claim your lost and found
But I’m over you and there ain’t nothin’ that
You could say or do to take what you did back
Well you got nerve to waltz right in
And think what’s mine is yours again

Chorus
Cause I’ve been doin’ fine without you
Forgettin’ all the love we once knew
And girl I ain’t the one who slammed that door
But now you say you’ve changed your thinkin’
But I ain’t got a heart for breakin’
So go and pick your bags up off my floor
Oh cause love don’t live here anymore

Well baby you can try to tell me how it is
And try to justify everything you did
But honey I’m no fool and oh I’ve been down this road
Too many times with you I think it’s best you go
Well I got one thing left to say
Is you can lay in the bed you’ve made

Repeat Chorus

Oh no that love don’t live here anymore
Oh no, no
Sugar no, no
And you don’t live here anymore
Love don’t live here anymore
And since you walked out of my door
Love don’t live here
Love don’t live here girl
Oh love don’t live here anymore

. . .


Girl you’re beautiful
You’re bout near perfect
But I bet somebody’s already told you that
Name your poison
Name your passion
Cause a boy like me just couldn’t help but ask
Keep on talking to me baby
I’m hanging on your every word
Keep those drinks a coming maybe
We’ll both get what we deserve

Chorus
How bout baby
We make a promise
To not promise anything more than one night
Complicated situations
Only get worse in the morning light
Hey I’m just lookin’ for a good time

Put in a long hard week doing this 9 to 5
And you’re just the girl to get that off my mind
You shouldn’t ‘ve worn that dress
You shouldn’t dance like that
You got this little heart of mine in overdrive
I sure love this conversation
The band is good, the music’s loud
But would you get the wrong impression
If I called us a cab right now

Repeat Chorus

Go ahead and lie to me and pull me close
Tell me that you love me even if you don’t
The rule is don’t you ever even talk about forever
But you never say never in life

Repeat Chorus

Hey I’m just lookin’ for a good time

. . .


Boy it's been all this time,
and I can't get you off my mind,
and nobody knows it but me.
I stare at your photograph,
still sleep in the shirt you left,
and nobody knows it but me.
Everday I wipe my tears away,
so many nights I've pray for you to say.

(Chorus)
I should have been chasing you,
I should have been trying to prove,
that you were all that mattered to me,
I should have said all the things,
that I kept inside of me and maybe,
I could have made you believe,
that what we had was all we ever need.

My friends think Im moving on,
but the truth is that nobody knows it but me.
And I've kept all the works you said,
in a box underneath my bed,
and nobody knows it but me.

But if youre happy I'll get through somehow,
but the truth is that I've been spinning.

(Repeat Chorus)

It was all we'd ever need.

Oh, thought it was all we'd ever need.

I should have been chasing you,
you should have been trying to prove,
that you were all that mattered to me,
you should have said all the things,
that I kept inside of me and maybe,
you could have made you believe,
that what we had was all we ever need.

Was all we'd ever need

. . .


It’s so like you just to show up at my door
And act like nothin’s happened
You think I’ll sweep my heart up off the floor
And give it to you
Like so many times before
You’re talking to a stranger
I’m not that girl anymore

Chorus
That girl is long gone
Boy you missed the boat it just sailed away
Long gone
She’s not drowning in her yesterdays
Betcha never thought I’d be that strong
Well this girl is long gone

Don’t waste your breath with baby baby please
Cuz I am so not listening
Don’t bother getting down upon your knees and try to beg me
I’m tired of how you twist the truth
You’re not talking to the same girl
Who used to forgive you

Repeat Chorus

Gone like the wind under Superman’s cape
Like a thief in the night I made the great escape
I’m not the kind of girl that keeps making the same mistakes

Chorus
That girl is long gone
Boy you missed the boat it just sailed away
Long gone
I’m not drowning in my yesterdays
Betcha never thought I’d be that strong, betcha didn’t
Yeah well baby I proved you wrong
This girl is long gone, long gone
This girl is long gone, long gone
This girl is long gone
This girl is gone

. . .


I run from hate
I run from prejudice
I run from pessimists
But I run too late
I run my life
Or is it running me
Run from my past
I run too fast
Or too slow it seems
When lies become the truth
That’s when I run to you

Chorus
This world keeps spinning faster
Into a new disaster so I run to you
I run to you baby
And when it all starts coming undone
Baby you’re the only one I run to
I run to you

We run on fumes
Your life and mine
Like the sands of time
Slippin’ right on through
And our love’s the only truth
That’s why I run to you

Repeat Chorus

Repeat Chorus

. . .


Ooo baby, baby something's changed,
that I can't quite put my finger on,
that is twice as right.
Ooo baby, baby something's changed,
that I can't quite put my finger on,
well I've been racking my brain,
wait just a minute,
Well hold on now,
well I'll get it.

(Chorus)
Love love love is looking good,
good good on you,
can you feel it
oh everbody sees it.
Your sweet smile has a way of,
lighting up the room,
yeah you shine like diamonds,
in everything you do.
Oh Love love love is looking good,
good good on you.

oooo baby, baby,
isnt it funny,
how we don't need any money,
just a little love to look like a million bucks

oooo baby, baby,
kinda makes you think of the driver on the night we met.
Probably be a red carpet everywhere you go,
roll it on out hey don't you know.

(Repeat Chorus)

Knew right away from the very first kiss,
that it just doesn't get much better than this.
its just like a favorite pair of jeans.
It keeps you just coming back for more,
like two kids in a candy store.
And now I know what everybody means when they say.

Love love love is looking good,
good good on you,
can you feel it,
oh everbody sees it.
your sweet smile has a way of,
lighting up the room,
yeah you shine like diamonds,
you shine like diamonds too.

Oh love love love is looking,
good good good on you,
im telling you mighty mighty good babe.

Love love love is looking,
good good good on you,
love is looking good on you.

Love love love is looking
good good good on you

. . .


I felt I was spinning my wheels
Before too long the road was calling
I packed everything I own
So sure that I was leaving this small town life behind for good
And not a single tear was falling
It took leaving for me to understand
Sometimes your dreams just aren’t what life has planned

Chorus
Mama said home is where the heart is
When I left that town
I made it all the way to West Virginia
And that’s where my heart found
Exactly where I’m supposed to be
It didn’t take much time
It’s just south of the Mason Dixon line
It’s just south of the Mason Dixon line

I worked third shift at an all night diner
Only stayed to save a little money for
Enough gas to make it to the east coast
That’s when I saw the brightest pair of
Deep blue eyes walking straight into my life
And every night we talked till it became so clear
And I could feel those dreams inside shifting gears
Cause love brought me here

Repeat Chorus

And I’m standing in my veil about to say I do
As mama smiles with tear drops in her eyes
And then I realize there’s something mama always knew
Love is what I really left to find

Repeat Chorus

. . .


There I was at the bus stop beggin’ you just to stay
Can we work this out, baby we can work this out
A dust trail from a Greyhound headed for the West Coast
As I watch you leave, it’s gettin’ hard to breathe
No this ain’t how it was suppose to be
While you’re out chasin’ all your dreams
Tell me where does that leave me

Chorus
What about the plans that you left behind
The little white house by the railway line
The one we picked out
We even put the payment down
What about the promise that you made
To stay with me till your dying day
Said you’d never go away
Are they just things that people say

The preacher stopped by the house last Tuesday
Asked if I was fine
We sat and talked a while
He tried to make me smile
But it’s so hard to show my face round lately
In this small town
I guess they heard the news
‘Bout me and you
It’s three a.m. and I can’t sleep at all
I wonder where you are tonight and do I ever cross your mind

Repeat Chorus

Well my momma won’t stop crying
She wonders what went wrong
Could I have loved a little deeper
Or did I hold on too strong

Repeat Chorus

. . .


Slow down sister cause I just can’t love ya
But I just can’t get you off my mind

I ain’t your fool, I’m not falling
I’m not falling in love with you
I play by my rules
And believe me
You don’t want me too close to you

And even though you look so fine
I’ve been on this broken road one too many times

Chorus
So slow down sister cause I just can’t love ya
But I just can’t get you off my mind
Oh and Lord knows I need ya
But I just don’t want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line

I’ve heard people say
That I’m crazy
That I’m crazy for avoiding you
But honey I got my freedom
And my reasons
All the reasons for what I do

But that last kiss just did me in
And I don’t wanna look at you as something
More than a friend

Repeat Chorus

Oh slow down sister
I’ve got to make you mine
Oh all I’m asking for is just a little time
A little more time

Repeat Chorus

. . .


I know that the bridges that I’ve burned
Along the way
Have left me with these walls and these scars
That won’t go away
And opening up has always been the hardest thing
Until you came

Chorus
So lay here beside me just hold me and don’t let go
This feelin’ I’m feelin’ is somethin’ I’ve never known
And I just can’t take my eyes off you
And I just can’t take my eyes off you

I love when you tell me that I’m pretty
When I just wake up
And I love how you tease me when I’m moody
But it’s never too much
I’m falling fast but the truth is I’m not scared at all
You climbed my walls

Repeat Chorus

Off you
Off you

Repeat Chorus

. . .


You feel like you’re falling backwards
Like you’re slippin’ through the cracks
Like no one would even notice
If you left this town and never came back
You walk outside and all you see is rain
You look inside and all you feel is pain
And you can’t see it now

Chorus
But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there’s a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won’t be much longer
You’ll find love, you’ll find peace
And the you you’re meant to be
I know right now that’s not the way you feel
But one day you will

You wake up every morning and ask yourself
What am I doing here anyway
With the weight of all those disappointments
Whispering in your ear
You’re just barely hanging by a thread
You wanna scream but you’re down to your last breath
And you don’t know it yet

Repeat Chorus

Find the strength to rise above
You will
Find just what you’re made of, you’re made of

Repeat Chorus

One day you will
Oh one day you will
