I like the way you hold me, Every night, for so long baby I like the way you say my name Everytime things got rocky |
I was believing in you Was I mistaken, do you say... do you say what you mean When you say our love could last forever |
(chorus) But I'd rather you be mean, Than love and lie, And I'd rather hear the truth, And have to say goodbye, I'd rather take a blow, At least then I would know, But baby, don't you break my heart slow |
You would run around and lead me on forever While I stay at home still thinking we're together I wanted our love to last forever |
(chorus) But I'd rather you be mean, Than love and lie, And I'd rather hear the truth, And have to say goodbye, I'd rather take a blow, At least then I would know, But baby, don't you break my heart slow |
Hey, Dorothea, do you ever stop and think about me? When we were younger down in the park Honey, making a lark of the misery You got shiny friends since you left town A tiny screen's the only place I see you now And I got nothing but well-wishes for ya |
Ooh, this place is the same as it ever was Ooh, but you don't like it that way |
It's never too late to come back to my side The stars in your eyes shined brighter in Tupelo And if you're ever tired of bеing known for who you know You know, you'll always know me, Dorothea (Uh-uh) Dorothea (Ah-ah) |
Ooh, you'rе a queen sellin' dreams Sellin' makeup and magazines Ooh, from you I'd buy anything |
Hey, Dorothea, do you ever stop and think about me? When it was calmer, skipping the prom just to piss off your mom and her pageant schemes And damn, Dorothea, they all wanna be ya But are you still the same soul I met under the bleachers? Well |
Ooh, I guess I'll never know Ooh, and you'll go on with the show |
But it's never too late to come back to my side The stars in your eyes shined brighter in Tupelo And if you're ever tired of being known for who you know You know, you'll always know me, Dorothea (Uh-uh) Dorothea (Ah-ah) |
Ooh, ooh Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Dorothea (Ah-ah-ah) Ah-ah Ooh |
Here in my mind the sky looks the same On every day you loved me When we started home it started to rain You put your coat around me We stood there in the road You held me so close But did you ever let go |
Down came the rain Lightning and thunder We tried in vain To hold on to each other Winds of change blew you away from me Right here right now, I feel it on my skin The bitter sting of what we could've been Just when our love was like a burning flame Down came the rain |
In through the window I see her with you I'm soaked to the skin, you're warm and dry I guess the storm is over for you But look at the tears here in my eyes I just stood there like a ghost As you held her so close And as I let you go |
Down came the rain Lightning and thunder We tried in vain To hold on to each other Winds of change blew you away from me Love like this changes who you are Every kiss you gave me is a scar Just when our love was like a burning flame Down came the rain |
All I need is to move on fast But all I want is to have you back And it just keeps falling… |
Down came the rain Lightning and thunder We tried in vain To hold on to each other Winds of change blew you away from me Right here right now, I feel it on my skin The bitter sting of what we could've been Just when our love was like a burning flame Down came the rain |
Down came the rain |
Our secret moments in a crowded room They got no idea about me and you There is an indentation in the shape of you Made your mark on me a golden tattoo |
All of this silence and patience pining and anticipation My hands are shaking from holding back from you All of this silence and patience pining and desperately waiting My hands are shaking from all this Ah, ha, ha, ha-ah |
Say my name and everything just stops I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah Carve your name into my bedpost 'Cause I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah |
Inescapable, I'm not even gonna try And if I get burned at least we were electrified I'm spilling wine in the bathtub You kiss my face and we're both drunk Everyone thinks that they know us But they know nothing about- |
All of this silence and patience pining and anticipation My hands are shaking from holding back from you Ha, ah, ah All of this silence and patience pining and desperately waiting My hands are shaking from all this Ah, ha, ha, ha-ah |
Say my name and everything just stops I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah Carve your name into my bedpost 'Cause I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it oh, ha, ha... |
Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah-ah Only bought this dress so you could take it off Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah-ah Only bought this dress so you could take it off |
Flashback when you met me Your buzzcut and my hair bleached Even in my worst times you could see the best in me Flashback to my mistakes My rebounds, my earthquakes Even in my worst lies you saw the truth in me And I woke up just in time Now I wake up by your side My one and only, my lifeline I woke up just in time Now I wake up by your side My hands shake I can't explain this Ah, ha, ha, ha-ah |
Say my name and everything just stops... I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah Carve your name into my bedpost 'Cause I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah |
There is an indentation in the shape of you Only bought this dress so you could take it off You made your mark on me, golden tattoo Only bought this dress so you could take it off |
It was painted red The stripe was white It was 18 feet from val to stern light It was 2nd hand, from a dealer in Atlanta I rode up with daddy when he went there to get her We put on a shine, put on a motor Built out of love, it made for water We ran her for years, til' the transister got rotten A piece of my child hood will never be forgotten |
It was just an old plywood boat A 75 Johnson, an electric choke A young boy two hands on the wheel I can't replace the way it made me feel I would turn her sharp, I would make it wide He said you can't beat the way A old wood boat rides Just a little lake across the Alabama line But I was king of the ocean When Daddy let me drive |
Just an old half ton short bed ford My Uncle bought new in 64 Daddy got it right cause the engine was smoking A couple of burnt valves and he got it going He'd let me drive her when we haul off a load Off a dirt strip where we'd dump trash Off of thickpin road I'd sit up in the seat and stretch my feet to the pedals Smiling like a hero Who just received his medal |
It was just an old hand me down ford With 3 speed on the column and a dent in the door A young boy two hands on the wheel I can't replace the way it made me feel I would press that clutch, and I would keep it right He would say just a little slower son You're doing just fine Just a little dirt road with trash on each side But I was Mario Andretti When Daddy let me drive |
I'm grown up now 3 daughters of my own I let them drive my old jeep Across the pastior at our home Maybe one day they'll reach back in their file And pull out that old memory And think of me and smile And say |
It was just an old worn out jeep Rusty old floor boards Hot on my feet A young girl two hands on the wheel I can't replace the way it made me feel Turn it left, and steer it right Straighten up girl, you're doing just fine Just a little valley by the river where we'd ride But I was high on a mountain When Daddy let me drive Daddy let me drive Oh he let me drive |
She's just old plywood boat With a 75 johnson And electric choke |
She didn't have a reason to go, oh no She didn't have a reason to stay either way She didn't tell anyone by the first reason She looked at her keys and found a reason to run |
And time stands still when you're nowhere bound But I understand it somehow |
If I could drive all night Would I find my peace of mind Would it be a million miles of cold white lights And unfamiliar exit signs I'd just drive on by Just south of knowing why |
I didn't really know her that well but I could tell That her smile was only something to hide behind She felt so out of touch 'cause she just felt too much And you don't know what you want nothing's ever enough |
And time stands still when you're nowhere bound That's where I'm headed right now |
If I could drive all night Would I find my peace of mind Would it be a million miles of cold white lights And unfamiliar exit signs I'd just drive on by Just south of knowing why |
I don't have a plan I don't have a map I don't even know if I'm ever coming back I don't have a when and I don't have a where I don't even know if I'll know when I'm there |
But if I could drive all night Would I find my peace of mind Would it be a million miles of cold white lights And unfamiliar exit signs I'd just drive on by... I'd just drive on by Drive on... drive on... drive all night |
If I'd just drive on... drive on... drive all night Just south of knowing why |
Now he's back in the atmosphere With drops of jupiter in his hair He walks like summer and talks like rain Reminds me that there's a time to change Since the return of his stay on the moon He listens like spring and he talks like June |
But tell me did you sail across the sun Did you make it to the milky way To see the lights all faded And that heaven is overrated Tell me did you fall for a shooting star One without a permanent scar And did you miss me While you were looking for yourself out there |
Now he's back from that soul vacation Chasing his way through the constellation He checks out mozart while he does tae-bo Reminds me that there's room to grow Now he's back in the atmosphere I'm afraid that he might think of me as Plain or jane told a story about a man Who was too afraid to fly so he never did land |
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet Did you finally get the chance to dance along in the light of day And head back to the milky way And tell me did venus blow your mind Was it everything you wanted to find And did you miss me While you were looking for yourself out there |
Can you imagine, no love, pride, deep fried chicken Your best friend always stickin up for you even when I know you're wrong Can you imagine no first dance Freeze dried romance 5 hour phone conversation The best soy latte' that you ever had and...Me? |
But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet? Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day And head back toward the milky way? Tell me did you fall for a shooting star, One without a permanent scar? And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself |
Can you imagine, no love, pride, deep fried chicken Your best friend always stickin up for you even when I know you're wrong Can you imagine no first dance Freeze dried romance 5 hour phone conversation The best soy latte' that you ever had and...Me? |
Turn your dial to 93.7 Broadway acts like he's 11 Self-proclaimed, self Worse mistake ever to land in Michigan I'm just a singer of country songs Just trying to play guitar and not do no wrong But if you listen to just one thing I say |
You should turn 93 on Broadway's Electric Barnyard I sing a song called Tim McGraw Request it and they'll play it all day long I sing in stations all day long But there's nothin like when you're on The Electric Barnyard |
From a trailer park in St. Louis Growin' up not wearin' any shoes Prettiest hillbilly girl you see all day Growin' up the other trailer park girls Couldn't hide their jealousy Cuz she had the only phone for miles Now she uses it as a DJ |
So you should turn? 93 on Broadway's Electric Barnyard I sing a song called Tim McGraw Request it and they'll play it all day long I sing in stations all day long But there's nothin like when you're on The Electric Barnyard |
There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles Same old tired, lonely place Walls of insincerity Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you |
Your eyes whispered "have we met?" Across the room your silhouette Starts to make it's way to me The playful conversation starts Counter all your quick remarks Like passing notes in secrecy And it was enchanting to meet you All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you |
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you |
The lingering question kept me up 2am, who do you love? I wonder till I'm wide awake Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door I'd open up and you would say, It was enchanting to meet you All I know is I was enchanted to meet you |
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home I'll spend forever wondering if you knew This night is flawless, don't you let it go I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you |
This is me praying that this was the very first page Not where the story line ends My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon I was enchanted to meet you Please don't be in love with someone else Please don't have somebody waiting on you Please don't be in love with someone else Please don't have somebody waiting on you |
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home I'll spend forever wondering if you knew This night is flawless, don't you let it go I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you |
Please don't be in love with someone else Please don't have somebody waiting on you |

Knew her when I was young Reconnected When we were little bit older Both sprung I got issues and chips On both of my shoulders Reputation precedes me In rumors I'm knee deep The truth it It's easier to ignore it Believe me Even when we'd argue We'd not do it for long And you understand The good and bad end up in a song For all your beautiful traits And the way you do it with ease For all my flaws, paranoia And insecurities I've made mistakes and made some choices Is that's hard to deny After the storm Something was born on the 4th of July Our past days were the fun This endgame is the one With four words on the tip of my tongue I'll never say it |

Keep your helmet, keep your life, son Just a flesh wound, here's your rifle Crawling up the beaches now "Sir, I think he's bleeding out" And some things you just can't speak about |
With you I serve, with you I fall down, down Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out |
Something med school did not cover Someone's daughter, someone's mother Holds your hand through plastic now "Doc, I think she's crashing out" And some things you just can't speak about |
Only twenty minutes to sleep But you dream of some epiphany Just one single glimpse of relief To make some sense of what you've seen |
With you I serve, with you I fall down, down (Down) Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out With you I serve, with you I fall down (Down) , down (Down) Watch you breathe in (Watch you breathe in) Watch you breathing out (Out) , out (Out) |
Only twenty minutes to sleep But you dream of some epiphany Just one single glimpse of relief To make some sense of what you've seen |
Gray November I've been down since July Motion capture Put me in a bad light I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone Trying to find the one where I went wrong Writing letters Addressed to the fire |
And I was catching my breath Staring out an open window Catching my death And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar That this pain would be for Evermore |
Hey December Guess I'm feeling unmoored Can't remember What I used to fight for I rewind thе tape but all it does is pause On thе very moment, all was lost Sending signals To be double-crossed |
And I was catching my breath Barefoot in the wildest winter Catching my death And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar That this pain would be for Evermore (Evermore) |
Can't not think of all the cost And the things that will be lost Oh, can we just get a pause? To be certain, we'll be tall again Whether weather be the frost Or the violence of the dog days I'm on waves, out being tossed Is there a line that I could just go cross? |
And when I was shipwrecked (Can't think of all the cost) I thought of you (All the things that will be lost now) In the cracks of light (Can we just get a pause?) I dreamed of you (To be certain we'll be tall again, if you think of all the costs) It was real enough (Whether weather be the frost) To get me through (Or the violence of the dog days) (Or the violence of the dog days) (I'm on waves, out being tossed) (I'm on waves, out being tossed) I swear (Is there a line that we could just go cross?) You were there |
And I was catching my breath Floors of a cabin creaking under my step And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar This pain wouldn't be for Evermore Evermore Evermore This pain wouldn't be for evermore Evermore |
All I knew this morning when I woke Is I know something now Know something now I didn't before And all I've seen since 18 hours ago Is green eyes and freckles and your smile In the back of my mind making me feel right |
I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you know you know you |
Cause all I know is we said hello And your eyes look like coming home All I know is a simple name, everything has changed All I know is we held the door You'll be mine and I'll be yours All I know since yesterday is everything has changed |
And all my walls stood tall painted blue But I'll take them down Take them down and open up the door for you And all I feel in my stomach Is butterflies the beautiful kind Making up for lost time, taking flight Making me feel right |
I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you know you know you |
Cause all I know is we said hello And your eyes look like coming home All I know is a simple name, everything has changed All I know is we held the door You'll be mine and I'll be yours All I know since yesterday is everything has changed |
Come back and tell me why I'm feeling like I've missed you all this time And meet me there tonight And let me know that it's not all in my mind |
I just want to know you better know You better know you better now I just want to know you know you know you |

All I know is we said hello So dust off your highest hopes All I know is pouring rain And everything has changed All I know is a newfound brightness All my days, I'll know your face All I know since yesterday is everything has changed |
All I knew this morning when I woke Is I know something now Know something now I didn't before And all I've seen since 18 hours ago Is green eyes and freckles and your smile In the back of my mind making me feel right |
