He believes in the family unit
The union of man and wife
He believes that you stand before God
For better, for worse and beyond this life

He believes that a ring on his finger
Is something to be proud of
For all of the world to witness
That he is committed to this love

He wants to get married

He'll build a house in the country
Where he'll watch his children grow
And teach them the values of something
That most people never even know

He wants to get married

I never thought I would be so blessed
To know a man like this
He's everything, everything I believe that a man should be

And when he is called to his maker
He wants to go to his grave
With his final remembrance of this earth
To be one last look at his wife's face

He wants to get married
He wants to get married
Oh, he wants to get married

But not to me

. . .


You don't remember me
Oh but I remember you
Was not so long ago
You broke my heart in two

Chorus:
Tears on my pillow
Pain in my heart
Caused by you

If we could start anew
I wouldn't hesitate
I'd gladly take you back
And tempt the hand of fate

Repeat Chorus

Love is not a gadget
Love is not a toy
When you find the one you love
You fill your heart with joy

Repeat Verse #2

Repeat Chorus x2

You, you, you...


. . .


When I heard that familiar voice,
my heart stopped dead in it's tracks.
Across the room I could see him there,
a ghost from my past.
But he's too caught up to notice me.
She must be his new love.
I never dreamed that it would hurt this much,
It's just

I know how he feels.
How warm his touch is.
Oh how he feels.
How soft his kiss is.
And it cuts right down to the bone
cause I let him go.
I know how he cares.
How strong his love can be,
When he believes it's real.
Oh I've been there.
I know how he feels.

As long as I kept him out of site,
I kept from going out of my mind.
Tried to believe that leaving him was some how justified.
But tonight there's no denying what a love like his is worth
He once looked at me the way he's looking at her.
What a lucky girl.


. . .


They say that it's the same the whole world over
That love's the hardest thing to understand
I thought once in love my troubles would blow over
But it seems that's when the heartache just begins

And I remember when you first said that you love me
I tried not to let the words go to my head
The things you said you spoke so sincerely
Somewhere in between the lines of red

Chorus:
Is it really love
Is it really love
Or just my heart playing tricks on me
I fall so easily
Is my heart telling me
That I'm your fool
Or is it really love

This time love's got me feeling so uncertain
My heart's seen all the breaks that it can take
I can't tell you if this is just infatuation
Or another chance to learn from my mistakes

Repeat Chorus

I'm a little bit leary
Of the love 'em and leave 'em behind kind
I'm just a little bit weary
Cause other lovers like messing with my mind
Oh all the time

Repeat Chorus

Am I your fool
Or is it really love

. . .


Preacher man talking about the end of time
Well, Lord knows I'm ready, it don't worry my mind
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

Walk through darkness
I don't need no light
My faith in Jesus gonna be my guide
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of of angels watching over me

You can take me for granted
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

River's rising but I got no doubt
My sweet Savior's gonna pull me out
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

He can give you a reason to live if he wants to
He can make you forget other loves that you had known
He has two lips and two arms that thrill you as very few do
And if you want him to give them to you just ask and he will

Chorus:
Don't you believe him
I did and soon he'll be leaving me
No don't believe him if you do
Then soon he'll be leaving you too

He can tell you a lie you believe if he has to
And you'll trust me till time and the tide both stand still
He can cry on your shoulder and swear to the things that he won't do
But be careful for when you're not looking he will

Repeat Chorus

. . .


Reba:
I've known about you for a while now
When he leaves me he wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be

Linda:
But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I never see his face in the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytimes
And sometimes I have his nights

Chorus:
But does he love you (does he love you)
Like he loves me (like he loves me)
Does he think of you (does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (does he whisper) all of his fantasies
Does he love you (does he love you) like he's been lovin' me

Linda:
But when he's with me, he says he needs me
And that he wants me, that he believes in me

Reba:
And when I'm in his arms, oh he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me, or am I deceiving myself?

Chorus:
But does he love you (does he love you)
Like he loves me (like he loves me)
Does he think of you (does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (does he whisper) of his fantasies
Does he love you (does he love you) like he's been lovin me

Bridge:

Reba:
Oh shouldn't I lose my temper
Linda:
Oh but shouldn't I be ashamed
Reba:
Cause i have everything to lose
Linda:
And I, I have nothing to gain

Chorus:
But does he love you (does he love you)
Like he loves me (like he loves me)
Does he think of you (does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (does he whisper) of his fantasies
Does he love you (does he love you) like he's been lovin me

Oh does he love you...

. . .


Do you think I'm such a fool
To believe everything you say is true
Well that just goes to show
That you really don't know
While you're out painting the town
Do you think I'm home just sitting around
Waiting on you
Now who's really the fool

When I first found out I hurt all over
I felt so left out till I got to know her
So I drived away as she got over
And I became just like her

So don't be surprised to find that
The angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Yes the angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight

Why'd you slip around secretly
If you were tired of loving me
Why do you keep holding on
When love was already gone
The time you said you wasn't feeling well
Did you think I couldn't tell
You've been with someone else
You were only kidding yourself

When I first found out I hurt all over
I felt so left out till I got to know her
So I drived away as she got over
And I became just like her so don't be surprised to find
The angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Yes the angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
The angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
Yes the angel in your arms this morning
Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight

. . .


His early mornin' attitude
You have to drag him out of bed
Only Frosted Flakes will do
He gets that from me
Yeah, he gets that from me

His curly hair and his knobby knees
The way the sun brings those freckles out
Talk and talk, never miss a beat
Yeah, he gets that from me
He gets that from me

He looks at me with those big brown eyes
He's got me in the palm of his hands
And I swear sometimes
It's just like you're here again
He smiles that little crooked smile
There's no denying he's your child
Without him, I don't know what I'd do
He gets that from you
Oh, he gets that from you

How he loves your old guitar
Yeah, he's taught himself to play
He melts my heart
Tells me he love me every day
And cracks a joke at the perfect time
Makes me laugh when I want to cry
That boy is everything to me
He gets that from you
He gets that from you

Last night I heard him pray
Lord, help me and Mama make it through
And tell Daddy, we'll be okay
He said, he sure misses you
He sure misses you
He really misses you
He gets that from me


. . .


Darling could I just have one moment with you we're here all alone just us two
Let me try to tell you in a few little words how my heart feels about you
If there were no rainbow I'd paint one for you
And I'd teach the robin a new song or two
Then I'd fight forever and hand it to you oh I wish there was more I could do
You've got me right where you want me it's true I'm right in the palm of your hand
You've got me right where you want me to be and I won't be right where I am
[ guitar ]
You've got me right where you want me to be and I won't be right where I am
