Well I made it on my own now for so many years… All the roads turned out dead ends And who knows where it all begins? Sailing down life’s river, it’s a veil of tears… So lost I could just vanish here Then I remember times you held me near… Baby what I wouldn’t give to have you here tonight.. Because my faith and soul are shattered And my brain has all been battered… You know they say it’s true Two wrongs don’t make it right… Still you leave me hanging on By the thread of your little red telephone… Well don’t you know I love you? And I’m always thinking of you? Another day is done… My love for you outshines the sun… You know you used to say you thought I’d hung the moon… Well that takes me back to the way we met First day of summertime in June… Baby what I wouldn’t give to have you hear tonight.. Because my faith and soul are shattered And my brain has all been battered… You know they say it’s true Two wrongs don’t make it right Still you keep me hanging on By the thread of your little red telephone… Lord knows I ain’t no prophet I’m on a train and can’t get off it… Rollin’ on my own too long Singin’ the same sad old song… Baby what I wouldn’t give to have you here tonight.. Because my heart and soul are shattered And my brain has all been battered… Girl you know you stole my heart Just like a thief in the night… Still you keep me hanging on By the thread of your little red telephone…

Well, time heals all Time’s a wrecking ball Somedays I just stare at the mirror and say: “Who’s that man?” Time heals the sick Time cools the head Maybe we should take a time-out baby And forget those words we said… And make no plans… Time’s a train Goes by so fast You know I do hate to see you go ‘Cause I thought our love might last… Hey, look at those newlyweds Funny, vows we said Lord knows where the good times go I hope they roll our way again Sometime real soon… ‘Cause time goes by In the wink of an eye… I still remember when you used to wink at me! My oh my… So many times I’d love to remember And others I’d soon forget… Too bad the years all end in December I wonder where our love went? Is that where our love went? Could we go back in time? There were good times in Italy, lovely times in France You really brought out the best in me baby… This wallflower learned to dance! But now has too much time Too much time gone by? One too many thorns on the rose of love… Just makes me wanna cry…. And when I cry I sing like this… Time heals all Just like a wrecking ball Sun goin’ down but the moon comes up I sure hope that moonbeams fill your cup… So put up your sheets, raise your tattooed sails… There’s nothing else that you can do ‘Cause you’re a little bit older and wiser too… I hope that time heals all…

Strange Ways 04:14
Well early to rise Yeah, early to bed… Did it really make you wise? Don’t let it go to your head. ‘Cause you got a strange way of knowing it You got a strange way indeed If this is love You got a strange way of showing it Honey, you got some strange ways… Well the sun don’t love you Got the moon above you Only see the stars When they kick you in the head And you daydream the night Why you looking for a fight? Baby who’s gonna butter your bread? ‘Cause you got a strange way of tellin’ it You’ve got some insane ways to me If this is love You got a strange way of sellin’ it Baby sure got some strange ways…. Well the train that’s my imagination May have already left the station I’ll put my fears and bad dreams aside It’s time to catch that train and ride…. Well you say you love me And put no one above me And I know I wanna believe that But you’re moving to China I’m in Carolina Honey, I just can’t see it… You sure got a strange way of tellin’ it You’ve got a strange way indeed If this is love You got a strange way of showin’ it Honey you got some strange ways…. Baby you got some strange ways….

Well its the Last Chance, its the Last Dance, but we've got all night, so let's get it up and get it all right. . . . Well take a Last Look, before they close the Book, its the Last Call, well, do you still think that you've seen it all? I keep waiting for some clear sign from Above, I try to remember just who you remind me of, I wanna perfect fit, just like a hand inside a glove, But will I be content to Wander, Aimlessly In Love? Wander aimlessly in love? Wander aimlessly in love? Its like the First Kiss, you just can't Resist, and in the Aftermath, you're so in lust that you have to Laugh. . . . 'Cause you waited so Long, that you can't be Wrong, you'd better settle down, or you'll settle for the Next Thing that comes around. . . . Well I can't recall a time you swore you'd never leave me, But all my memories of you are vanishing completely. . . . I can't remember when it was or exactly what you said, I could never Trust you, its these Little Things I get inside my head. . . . If suspicion gets you down and your love's a battleground, don't be sad now, don't you cry, Love's not the only reason why. . . . What was the Final Straw? Well did we Break the Law? Was it a White Lie? You told me you loved me when you were kissin' goodbye. Was I the Last Dunce? Was it really more than Once? Was I the Last Fool, Who was a Crook by the Book but still Played by the Rules?

Well, I been wonderin’ everyday Just exactly which words to say I been much too timid, much too tame I been much too scared to even ask your name But times have changed now that I’m drinkin’ And all this booze has got me thinkin’ If you’re leavin’ this barroom all alone I got the ride that’s gonna take you home I got one thing baby I can’t get off my mind I’d love to get you naked Good God girl you’re lookin’ fine If you don’t love me then you can just fake it And be my redneck concubine Well you treat me like you just don’t care I’d settle for seein’ you in your underwear Don’t leave me on this ol’ barstool Man, now I feel like such a fool… Hell, this ain’t your number, and it’s probably not your name Guess I’ll go hang my poor head in shame But just one request before you leave I think I got an ace left up my sleeve I got one thing baby I can’t get off my mind I’d love to get you naked You’d give eyesight to the blind So if you don’t love me then you can just fake it And be my redneck concubine Well I’d love to get you naked Good God girl you’re lookin’ fine If you don’t love me then you can just fake it And be my redneck concubine…

Holy Avenue 05:46
A girl goes into a bar and finds a foreign land, strangely familiar though, and she goes up to this guy (some jerk) at a pink table, staring into space and says, "Look, you know, you look like you could use some company!" He thinks, "This is a way to meet new people!" He says, "Yea, sure, can I light up your smoke (cough cough) or buy you a shot of liquor? Let's go up to my place and watch Leno or Letterman, stay up late and have lots of laughs!" (ha ha ha ha). "Sure!". . . . "Sure!". . . . Next year, she's thinkin' back, thinkin' how familiarity breeds contempt, and how she don't like foreigners or cheap cologne. . . . They'll finally find out one day, this Friday, Saturday, Sunday, finally find out they're on their own, their own. They'll finally wind up talkin' after miles and miles of walkin' that there ain't no place like home sweet home sweet home, Sweet Home. . . . Holy Avenue! Take me away from you! She has hopes and dreams that she can never remember, the time passes so slowly, it seemed like just yesterday she was gettin' older. . . . Someone she passed by on the street today said he knew her, like it was a dream, but she forgot him too, and hours later she went out searching for the man of her dreams (where is he?). Sounds like wet cement in a wheelbarrow. . . . Mixing up coffee and tears, she spreads herself thin in the mirror, & paints her shadow. . . . Everyone mistakes her for an actress and wants her autograph, but she never has a pen handy!

My world is falling apart over you, And there's not a thing I can do, Falling apart over you. . . . My life has taken a turn for the worst, Like a man with an unquenchable thirst, And that's just the best of the worst. . . . I think back to another time and place, When I could clearly see your face, But now my life is just a waste, As I take my place in the old rat race. . . . And every time I think about you, I wonder what I'm gonna do without you, It ain't no easy thing, To give away a diamond ring. . . . My world is falling apart without you, And there's not a thing I can do, Falling apart without you. . . . My life is in one hell of a mess, And now maybe its time to confess, So I can put the demons to rest. . . . Now I've turned to the bottle, To drown my sorrows cold, Its a pathetic way to dig yourself Out of a six-by-six foot hole. . . . But the more I'm thinking 'bout the past, And I see my reflection at the bottom of a liquor glass, The circle of sadness keeps on draggin' me around, So you pick one up if you put one down. . . . My life is falling apart without you, And there's not a thing I can do, Falling apart without you. . . . My life has taken a turn for the worst, Like a man with an unquenchable thirst, And that's just the best of the worst. . . .

Why Why Why 04:46
You told me why, why should I stay? When you treat me this way? You said you’re leaving today! So, I said why, why should you go? Your yes it could mean a no… You just really don’t know… Baby, baby, baby, baby when we first met You couldn’t get enough of me Wouldn’t let me out of your sight We rocked and rolled through the night! But now, now, wow, wow, wow you say the fire is out! And there can be no doubt Your like a needle in a haystack baby… Someone I can’t do without! And so I’ll cry! What can I say? Oh please don’t go away! You know I need you today! Well, you say why? Why shouldn’t you go? Well, hell I don’t really know! Why don’t you just close the door! I know I’ll dream about you baby Every single minute Can’t imagine getting through my day without having you in it! Babe, without you here I’ll be calling everyone I know! I’ll be walking all the floors And I’ll be staring at the ceiling I’ll be howling on all fours I can’t believe you’re really leaving! Honey is this the way you really want it to go? Why don’t you come back here baby? We’ll turn the lights out… Sure you can jump on the bed! Baby, we can work it out! But now wait a minute darling… You say you don’t think so? Honey let’s give it one more try Say you never know! Well, well, why? Why should I stay? When you treat me this way? You said you’re leaving today! So, I said why, why should you go? You don’t really know… Why don’t you just close the door?

There were no weapons You knew it all along It was no secret Still everyone went along It was no secret And you acted as if you’d fooled us all It was no secret But somehow you knew… That one day we’d find out And then we’d close the door It was such a heartache There was blood all over the floor Well nothing would stop you A madman You know you’d gone insane You’d led us down the primrose path And you were mad Simply mad Stark raving mad You knew we were all suckers You even sold it to us once before Now we want our money back But you still had more in store If it was still a secret What would you have done with it? Taken it off-shore? But it was never a secret That we We trusted you We trusted you with our lives We trusted you with our children We trusted you with everything And you threw it all away… There were no weapons You knew it all along It was no secret And still everybody went along It was no secret And you acted Acted as if you’d fooled us all But it was no secret Somehow you knew That we’d go along (something like that…)

Well you can’t get away just for the day no matter how hard you conspire The only way to get away is to get free of your desire Straightening by fire, straightening by fire It’s all in your mind Well do you do it like it’s a weight on you or do you do it as a part of the dance? As soon as you know that there’s no place to go then you’ll laugh at not taking chances Straightening by fire, straightening by fire It’s all in your mind She is a veil she is caught in the beauty of time That’s how it is You’re making a round trip another time Mind creates matter Not being here now is the cause of it all So what does it matter? No sense in building another wall Straightening by fire, straightening by fire It’s all in your mind It’s all in your mind It’s all in your mind
