Lyrics by: Jaime O'Hara, Brent Maher, and Gary Nicholson

I thought I had my life worked out
I thought I knew what it was all about
Then love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'

I had my mind on the open road
I thought I knew where I wanted to go
Then love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'

(Chorus)

When love starts talkin'
You got no choice
But to shut up and listen
It's a powerful voice
Open the door
And let it walk in
That's what you gotta do
When love starts talkin'

I thought I had it wrapped up neat and nice
I didn't need nobody's advice
Then love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'

(Repeat Chorus)

I thought I heard it all before
I thought I didn't need to hear no more
Then love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'
Your love started talkin'
Love started talkin'

. . .


Lyrics by: Kevin Welch

So, you're at the end of your wits
The end of your rope
You just can't fix
Everything that's broke
Got to turn it loose, babe
Hey, just let it ride

Cause it ain't about pride now
Well, it ain't about guilt
You've just come to a bridge
That you still ain't built
Sit down here with me
I'll tell you about the other side

(Chorus)

The other side of loneliness
The other side of the blues
There really is a place like this
Where the sun is gonna shine for you
You'll feel that old restlessness
Your tears have all been cried
You'll find your way over this
And you'll make it to the other side

Life gets hard
Life gets cold
No matter who you are
Gonna settle on your soul
There comes a time
When you go looking for a place to hide

But one of these days
You're gonna lift up your head
Whistle up those hell hounds of yours
And make them sit up and beg
That's when you'll be ready
Ready for the other side

(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


Lyrics by: Al Anderson, Gary Nicholson, Benmont Tench

You might tell me to mind my business
But I've been watchin' and I've been a witness
To the things you do and say and the games you play
You better start cutting the man some slack
Or he's gonna leave and he won't be back
One day you're gonna chase him away
If you keep on yankin' that chain
Honey, if I was in your shoes
I tell you what I would do

(Chorus)

If I had a love like that
A real fine love like that
I'd be treatin' him right
And never do him any wrong
If you're gonna do like that
With a good love like that
Sister, just like that you're gonna wake up
And find him gone

That man you've got is crazy about you
He wants to build his world around you
There's nothin' that he won't do will satisfy you
But I see you flirtin'
Shakin' your skirt and one of these days
You're gonna hurt him
Gonna push him just a little too far
And break a good man's heart
Before you go and loose it all
Here's a little wake up call

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Sister, just like that you're gonna wake up
And find him gone

. . .


Lyrics by: Michael Mcdonald, Brenda Lee, Dave Powelson

Anyone can read the sign
Or the writing on the wall
It's all right there to see
Except someone like me
Who can't see the truth at all

It takes a special kind of fool
To stand out in the rain
Somewhere in between
Nothing left to lose
Nothing to be gained

(Chorus)

What kind of fool does it take
To go on loving alone
Like there's some answer in the ruins
Some silver lining to be found
An even bigger fool might think
That you would care if my heart breaks
Before the time that I admit
I'm just the kind of fool love makes

A wiser one would see
Nothing's gonna change
There's a time for giving up
A time for letting go
To learn from our mistake
But I keep holding onto hope
In spite of everything I know

What kind of fool does it take
To go on loving alone
Like there's some answer in this ruin
Some silver lining to be found
It takes a bigger fool to think
That the dawn will never break
On this day that I admit
I'm just the kind of fool love makes

On this day that I admit
I'm just the kind of fool love makes

. . .


Lyrics by: Wynonna Judd, Jamie O'Hara, Brent Maher

(Chorus)

A troubled heart and a troubled mind
Is all I'm gonna leave behind
I'm movin' on down the line
Don't shout me down I'm doin' fine
You've been hard and heavy on my soul
Gotta lighten the load and let you go
Life's too short, ain't got the time
For a troubled heart and a troubled mind

Got a v-8 Ford slung low to the ground
Got a highway leading me outta town
A road map open to the promised land
I've taken just about as much as I can stand

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)

Windshield wiper slappin' off the rain
Bright lights shinin' on the passin' lane
One more mile, one less tear
So long Daddy I'm outta here

(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


(with Naomi Judd/Kenny Wayne Shepherd)
Lyrics by: Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Mark Selby, Tia Sillers

You go where you want to
Go out on the town
Expect to keep me waitin'
With that law you're layin' down
That ain't right
Tonight I'm breaking free
Ain't gonna work no more
Don't you throw that mojo on me

You got some magic
I'll give you that
It just ain't worth it
I ain't going back
No more
Under your lock and your key
I know that look
Don't you throw that mojo on me

You ain't gonna be my hangman
I ain't gonna wear no noose
Well I got somethin' here now baby
I'll be turnin' loose
You ain't the only one
I got some tricks up my sleeve
It might come back to haunt you
Don't you throw that mojo on me

Yeah, it might come back to haunt you
Don't you throw that mojo on me

. . .


Lyrics by: Billy Kirsch, Bat McGrath

What good's a dollar
Without your baby sister?
Two scoops of ice cream
On a summer afternoon
We ran wild
And all we ever wanted
Was to rule the world
Between our house and school

(Chorus)

We move on
Put those dreams away
Thinking that we'll find them
Come some rainy day

First time I saw you
I knew I would love you
Half way through sophomore year
I finally asked your name
When I kissed you
I lost my heart completely
All we wanted
Was just to stay that way

We move on
Put those dreams away
Hoping that we'll find them
Come some rainy day
How could I know
That everything would change
Except the way I miss you
Come some rainy day

(Bridge)

I'll sit and laugh with friends
At what we've all been through
But I still catch my breath
When someone mentions you

(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


Lyrics by: Dean McTaggart, David Tyson, Tina Arena

There's no king when love is the thing
We play the same rules
In a heartbeat a wise man can be a fool
There's no guarantee that love will be

A stranger or friend
A prayer that's answered or a heartache that never ends
Through the darkest hours when all is said and done
It has the power, you go from lonely to the lucky one

(Chorus)

Love's funny that way
No matter who you are
Well it can shake your faith
Or it can break your heart
Once in a while the mountains move
We all long for those days
You live, you laugh, you say
Love's funny that way

Not long ago I got to know the lonely side
Just me and my pain and nowhere to hide
It amazes me
How my world turned around
If it's meant to be
That's all that matters to me anyhow

(Repeat Chorus)

So when you don't understand
Best you leave it in love's hands
Just live, laugh and say
Love's funny that way

. . .


Lyrics by: David Pack, Cliff Downs

Everybody read about it
You can find it in the checkout line
They say I got husbands a-leavin', boyfriends a-callin'
And problems that ain't even mine
Well, all that trash don't bother me none
It's all just part of the game
I'm just a good-hearted down-home country girl
And you all know my name

(Chorus)

I like to ride
I need my space
And I love being at home
But if you wanna' get right into my heart
Take a left at the wyld unknown
The wyld unknown

You don't wanna' cross my little mama
And you sure don't wanna mess with me
'Cause there's a wild streak running down from the roots
To the top of my family tree
I'm a woman of passion, a woman of faith
As honest as I can be
To tell you the truth, I'm bulletproof
So take your best shot at me

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)

The wyld unknown
I'll show you somethin' that
You ain't never been shown

Whenever trouble finds me
I always take my share of the blame
I'm the kind of girl who can rock your world
Or love you like a hurricane
I'm a woman of passion, a woman of faith
As honest as I can be
To tell you the truth, I'm bulletproof
So take your best shot at me

(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


Lyrics by: David Pack, James Newton, Cliff Downs

Somewhere off
In a distant dream
You were long ago
Like a memory

Now you're back
Standing here
Sayin' all the words
You think I want to hear

Did you finally realize
What I knew all along
That you never needed me
Until I was gone

(Chorus)

Why now
Should I turn my life around
Just to let you bring me down
Another time
Oh, why now
After all the years apart
Should I open up my heart
And let you in my life again

Everything, that I tried to forget
Thought I left behind, guess it ain't over yet
And babe, it's almost worth all the pain
Just to look in your eyes and hold you again
You never realized how much I tried
To let you know what I was feeling inside

(Repeat Chorus)

Hold on, cause it's starting all over
Hold on, cause it won't be the same
Hold on, letting go would be better
Letting go of the pain

(Bridge)

How did you think I would be
Waiting for you for an eternity
(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


(with John Berry)
Lyrics by: Aaron Saine and Will Robinson

Before God and family we made the perfect start
And swore death would be the only thing to keep us apart
But we're fighting just like soldiers on a field of battle now
And the life we made together is our only common ground
She's got your eyes, my nose and our hearts

(Chorus)

We can't unmake love
And just erase all the years
The sweetest little girl
In all the world will still be here
We promised love would last
She's living proof it still does
So even if we wanted to give up
We can't unmake love

Remember how the future looked as we'd lie awake and dream
Thinking just how powerful the love we made could be
And I can't help believing it's all still possible
But if coming to our senses is gonna take a miracle
She's right upstairs, right now, asleep

(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


Lyrics by: John Hadley, Harry Stinson

If time is a train rollin' down the track
Every minute is a box car that don't come back
Take a look around you, it's all gonna change
Whatever you see ain't never gonna stay the same
Except for the rain and the wind in the trees
And the way I feel about you and me

(Chorus)

And the way I feel when I'm with you
Is like the roll of the ocean
And the calm and quiet of the moon
And when you hold me time stands still
It always has and you know it always will

Out on the horizon the sun is goin' down
It ain't gone, it's just on its way around
Just like your love I see it every day
In the things you do and the things you say
You touch my hand and I feel the thrill
I always have and I always will

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

You know it always will
You know it always will
