Marc Broussard Album

Dance for me sweetheart while I strum my guitar
You sure look pretty tonight
I've just come off the road and I could use the company
Now that would suit me just fine

Now I've seen a lot of special things around this world
You can see them, too, you can
What's that you ask?
I have no name, I have no name
For I am known only as man
For I am known only as man

I'm a wanderer I have no place or time
I'm just drifting on this lonely road of mine
And if you like you can come along with me
But I promise you that I am not the man I used to be
But I promise you that I am not the man I used to be

Now you and I, we've seen our share of ups and downs
Somewhere we just lost hope
I can't change the past, but who cares?
Your love is all I've ever known
Your love is all I've ever known

I'm a wanderer I have no place or time
I'm just drifting on this lonely road of mine
And if you like you can come along with me
But I promise you that I am not the man I used to be
But I promise you that I am not the man I used to be, no

I'm a wanderer I have no place or time
I'm just drifting on this lonely road of mine
And if you would accept me for me
Then I promise you that there's a better man inside of me
Yes, I promise you that there's a better man inside of me
I promise you that there's a better man inside of me

Dance for me sweetheart while I strum my guitar

I try to say the words
But they don't come out right
It'd be much easier
If you would just stay the night
That look in your eye
Has got me thinking something's wrong
And just like that
You're gone
You're gone

How could I be so blind?
How could I be such a fool?
'Cause in this game of love
There ain't no damn rules
That look in your eye
Has got me thinking something's wrong
Then just like that
You're gone
You're gone
Yeah

I treated you so good
I gave you everything that I had
Now give me one good reason
Why I deserve to be treated this bad
Oh that look in your eye
Has got me thinking something's wrong
And just like that
You're gone
Gone
Gone
You're gone
You're gone
Gone

I said if lovin' is the game
Then you can, you can count me out
I'm tired of being a fool
I know what you're
You're all about
There's no surprise that the look in your eye
Is telling me it might be time to move on
And just like that
And just like that
Oh
And just like that
I'm gone

Oh
Never would I have imagined
I'd be here with you tonight
Holding you in my arms as we dance
I gotta tell you it just feels so right

Something about you moves me deep inside my soul
When I look into your eyes
Just in case I haven't already let you know
Here's just a couple of wishes of mine

I want you to stay up talking to me all night long
Call me up out of the blue just to see what's going on
Even if I never see another day with you
I hope you know I appreciate you

Oh
So many things I want to say to you
But the timing's just not right
I don't want to scare you off too soon
So baby be with me tonight
Yeah yeah yeah

Something about you moves me deep inside my soul
When I look into your eyes
Just in case I haven't already let you know
Here's just a couple of wishes of mine

I want you to stay up talking to me all night long
Call me up out of the blue just to see what's going on
Even if I never see another day with you
I hope you know I appreciate you
I said I hope you know I appreciate you

Oh, You
Whoa, whoa

I want you to stay up talking to me all night long
Call me up out of the blue just to see what's going on
Even if I never see another day with you
I hope you know I appreciate you
I said I hope you know I appreciate you
I hope you know I appreciate you
One more time, one more time

Friendly people
But I can't make out all the words
Melodies so sweet through all the trees
From different birds
All around me
Sights and sounds and songs I've never heard
Swearing I'll be back again
One more week might do me in

And I stop to catch my breath
On the slippery steps of Angoulême
And with my little finger
Across the town I write your name

I can't stop drinking the wine
Can't stop counting the days
A world apart, an ocean away
Just loving you baby
Sittin' here, loving you
From this little French café

Oh, yeah
Turn the bed down, baby
Pray that jumbo plane's gonna bring me back
Got roses and bazaracs
Six Bordeauxs all in a sack
We may know some scrapes
But some things we won't ever lack
All the fields of Beaujolais
Couldn't buy you anyway
Couldn't buy you babe

Oh
And I stop to catch my breath
On the mighty steps of Angoulême
And with my little finger
Across the town I write your name

I can't stop drinking the wine
I can't stop counting the days
A world apart, an ocean away
Just loving you baby
Sittin' here, loving you
From this little French

All the oysters in Marennes
Whole French army and Charles de Gaulle
A million Francs wouldn't phase me at all
From loving you baby
Sittin' here loving you
From this little French café
Sittin' here loving you

Staring out the window
Watching the world go by
Oh
Sometimes it's as if God
Takes too long
Why don't I just take my own life?

But then my better sense kicks in
Sit back and take a breath
Why am I thinking like that?
I'm only thinking of myself

Slow down, boy
Relax
Momentary setback
Don't take it so fast
Slow down boy
Relax
You'll make it back
Quick, fast, in a hurry

Standing at the water's edge
As my dreams float by
Ooh
I can't remember a time
When anything went right
I might just keep stepping on
Into the river's arms open wide

But I'll hang on and ride
Suicide
Pray the night
Every life is a gift
Holy light
Sanctify

Slow down boy, relax
Momentary setback
Don't take it so fast
Slow down boy, relax
You'll make it back
Quick fast in a hurry

Slow down boy (x3)

Slow down boy (x3)

Slow down boy, relax
Momentary setback
Don't take it so fast
Slow down boy
Relax
You'll make it back

Cast my eyes towards the sky
Looking down on me
So far all I've seen are clouds
But I'm not gonna let 'em get me down

No way
No how
Not ever
Not now

There's gotta be more here
Than what I see
There's gotta be more here
Than what I see

Walking down the road again
One step at a time
So far all I've seen are stop signs
But I'm not gonna let 'em get me this time

My life
Keep my head high
Yeah

There's gotta be more here
Than what I see
There's gotta be more here
Than what I see

Are those the clouds of my mind that hide the stars?
Will I ever find the road that leads me home again?
Does it seem so far
From looking way to hard
Now I know my heart is where my searching all begins

High low is where I stand
Looking for the man in charge
High low is where I stand
Looking for the man in charge
High low is where I stand
Looking for the man in charge
High and low is where I search
But you know that I didn't have to look this far

I believe there's more here to see
Oh yeah
I believe there's more here to see
'Cause the dirt has been wiped away from my eyes and
I know what I'm supposed to be

My God, my God
Why have you forsaken me?
I cannot find the light
And I'm constantly running from thee

My God, my God
Help me find the way
Back to your loving arms

Oh you are the way, the truth and the life
Burn over me
Lord send your might
Oh I can do nothing without you
With your strength
This dark night I'll get through
I'll get through

My God, my God
Heal this sin-stained soul
I give my life to you
Take me and make me whole

My God, my God
I'm lost and so alone
Drowning in a sea of desolation
Help me find
Help me find my way back home

Oh you are the way, the truth and the life
Burn over me
Lord send your might
Oh I can do nothing without you
With your strength
This dark night I'll get through
I'll get through

My God, my God, my God
I know you're not forsaking me
But I cannot find the light
And I'm
And I'm constantly running from thee

My God, my God
I'm lost and so alone
Drowning in a sea of desolation
Help me find
Help me find my way back home
My God

Oh you are the way, the truth and the life
Burn over me
Lord send your might
Oh I can do nothing without you
With your strength
This dark night I'll get through

Why did it have to end so soon?
Why did you go away?
Although I know it may never come true
I hope to see you someday

And I'll always remember
Those times that we shared
So if you're listening from up above
This is my prayer

You've brought so much joy to this world of mine
Whenever I needed you came
A friend like you is so hard to find
Without you it won't be the same

And though many will try
No one can ever compare
So if you're listening from up above
This is my prayer

May the mountains rise to meet you
May the skies open wide
Know that in my heart, my friend
You will always be alive

There are so many things that I want you to know
So many words to say
And when He finally calls me home
I'll walk with you through those gates

So please remember me
Oh I promise I'll see you up there
I hope you're listening from up above
This is my prayer

May the mountains rise to meet you
May the skies open wide
Know that in my heart my friend
You will always be alive

May the angels fly to greet you
You can see it all from up there
I know you're listening from up above
'Cause this is, and will always be, my prayer
My prayer
