- Slow Dance More
Letra
Grady johnson was a common man Four children and some bottom land Early to bed he said well that ain't me I gotta spend some time with my family Left to it's own device may becomes june But children grow up all too soon So love your neighbor as yourself Don't use money to measure wealth Trust in God but lock your door Buy low sell high and slow dance more Mama johnson was grady's wife She bore his children and she graced his life Hand in hand and side by side They worked hard to simplify Some folks have and some have not What really counts is what you do with what you've got So love your neighbor as yourself Don't use money to measure wealth Trust in God but lock your door Buy low sell high and slow dance more And more I think I understan What my father's father meant When he said son what matters most You can count on just one hand So love your neighbor as yourself Don't use money to measure wealth Trust in God but lock your door Buy low sell high and slow dance more Buy low sell high and slow dance more - Buy Me A Rose
Letra
He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants A three car garage, her own credit cards He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss good night If he could only read her mind, she'd say: Buy me a rose, call me from work Open a door for me, what would it hurt Show me you love me by the look in your eyes These are the little things I need the most in my life Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone And she can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong Cause lately she'd try anything to turn his head Would it make a difference if she said: Buy me a rose, call me from work Open a door for me, what would it hurt Show me you love me by the look in your eyes These are the little things I need the most in my life And the more that he lives the less that he tries To show her the love that he holds inside And the more that she gives the more that he sees This is a story of you and me So I bought you a rose on the way home from work To open the door to a heart that I hurt And I hope you notice this look in my eyes Cause I'm gonna make things right For the rest of your life I'm gonna hold you tonight Do all those little things For the rest of your life. - I Will Remember You
Letra
I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. I'm so tired I can't sleep Standing on the edge of something Much to deep. It's funny how we feel so much And cannot say a word We're screaming inside But we can't be heard I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. So afraid to love you More afraid to loose Clinging to past That doesn't let me choose. Well, once there was a darkness A deep and endless night You gave me everything You gave me light. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. Remember all The good times that we had Let them slip away from us And things got bad. Clearly I first saw you Smiling in the sun I want to feel your warmth I want to be the one. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. Weep not for the memories. The memories... - Love Don´t Live Here Anymore
- She Rides Wild Horses
Letra
It's just her and the band and the clean up man She's countin' up her tips, she did alright She says goodnight She drives home to a three room flat Checks her machine and she feeds the cat She's almost asleep Before she turns out the light In her dreams, she rides wild horses And they carry her away on the wind And they never make a sound As they fly above the ground Tonight she rides wild horses again She's fallen in love a time or two Somehow it always fell through - but she's strong She carries on Her life ain't always gonna be this way She knows she's gonna shine someday But for now She'll escape until the dawn In her dreams, she rides wild horses And they carry her away on the wind And they never make a sound As they fly above the ground Tonight she rides wild horses again In her dreams, she rides wild horses And they carry her away on the wind And they never make a sound As they fly above the ground Tonight she rides wild horses again In her dreams, she rides wild horses And they carry her away on the wind And they never make a sound As they fly above the ground Tonight she rides wild horses again In her dreams, she rides wild horses - The Kind Of Fool Love Makes
Letra
Anyone can read the signs 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 And nothing to be gained. 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 You would care if my arm 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 mistakes. But I keep holding on to hope In spite of everything I know What kind of fool... 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. - Loving Arms
Letra
If you could see me now The one who said That he'd rather roam The one who said He'd rather be alone If you could only see me now. If I could hold you now Just for a moment If I could really make you mine Just for awhile Turn back the hands of time If I could only hold you now. I been too long in the wind Too long in the rain Takin' any comfort that I can Looking back and longing for The freedom of my chains And lying in you loving arms again. If you could hear me now Singing somewhere in the lonely night Dreaming of the arms that held me tight If I could only hold you now. Ooh I been too long in the wind Too long in the rain Takin' any comfort that I can Looking back and longing for The freedom of my chains And lying in your loving arms again I can almost feel your loving arms again... - I Can´t Make You Love Me
- Let It Be Me
Letra
I bless the day I found you I want to stay around you And so I beg you Let it be me. Don't take this heaven from one If you must cling to someone Now and forever Let it be me. Each time we meet love I find complete love Without your sweet love What would life be? So never leave me lonely Tell me you'll love me only And that you'll always Let it be me... - The Greatest
Letra
Little boy in a baseball hat stands in the field with his ball and bat Says, "I am the greatest player of them all" Puts his bat in his shoulder and he tosses up his ball. And the ball goes up and the ball comes down, Swings his bat all the way around The world so still you can hear the sound, the baseball falls to the ground. Now the little boy doesn't say a word, picks up his ball he is undeterred. Says, "I am the greatest that there has ever been" And he grits his teeth and he tries again. And the ball goes up and the ball comes down, Swings his bat all the way around The world so still you can hear the sound, the baseball falls to the ground. He makes no excuses he shows no fear He just closes his eyes and listens to the cheers. Little boy he adjusts his hat, picks up his ball, stares at his bat Says "I am the greatest when the game is on the line" And he gives his all one last time. And the ball goes up and the moon so bright Swings his bat with all his might The world's as still as still can be, the baseball falls And that's strike three. Now it's suppertime and his momma calls, Little boy starts home with his bat and ball. Says, "I am the greatest, that is a fact, But even I didn't know I could pitch like that!" Says, "I am the greatest, that is understood, But even I didn't know I could pitch that good!"
