"How Can I Tell Her"

She knows when I'm lonesome, she cries when I'm sad
She's up in the good times, she's down in the bad
Whenever I'm discouraged, she knows just what to do
But girl she doesn't know about you.

I can tell her my troubles, she makes them all seem right
I can make up excuses not to hold her at night
We can talk of tomorrow, I'll tell her things that I want to do
But girl how can I tell her about you.

How can I tell her about you
Girl please tell me what to do
Everything seems right whenever I'm with you
So girl won't you tell me how to tell her about you.

How can I tell her I don't miss her whenever I'm away
How can I say it's you I think of every single night and day
But when is it easy telling someone we're through
Ah girl help me tell her about you.

"I'd Love You To Want Me"

When I saw you standing there
I bout fell out my chair
And when you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet.

Now it took time for me to know
what you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes.

Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be.

You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feeling show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave.

"Let It Be Me"

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 love me only
And that you'll always let it be me
Each time we meet love,
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
what would life be

"The End Of The World"

Why does the sun go no shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
Cause you don't love me anymore

Why do the birds go no singing
Why do the stars glow above
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when i lost your love

I wake up in the morning
And I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand
No I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does

Why does my heart go on beating
Why do these eyes on mine cry
Don't then know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said good-bye

"Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow

Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure
Can I believe
The magic of your eyes
Will you still love me tomorrow

Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning sun

I'd like to know
That your love
Is a love I can be sure of
So tell me now
And I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow

"Faithful"

I never wanted anyone before
Half as much as I want you
I finally found what I've been searching for
My whole life through

You're the answer to the prayers I've prayed
More than I've ever dreamed of
So I give to you my heart today
And pledge my eternal love

I'll be faithful, faithful till the end
I'm so thankful that heaven
Chose to send you
And this love will last forever
Forever I'll be true
And be faithful to you

You're my one and only one you see
There's just no one to compare
I'll hold and keep you close to me
Way beyond our golden years

Our two hearts will always beat as one
One thing you can know for sure
I promise that I'll never let you down
Your trust in me's secure

"Dream Lover"

Every night I hope and pray
A dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms
And know the magic of her charms

Cause I want
A girl to call my own
I want a dream lover
So I won't have to dream alone

Dream lover where are you
With a love that's oh so true
And a hand that I can hold
To feel her near as I grow old

Someday I don't know how
I hope she'll hear my plea
Some way I don't know how
She'll bring her love to me

Dream lover until then
I go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lover's dreams come true

"You Are All I'll Ever Need"

This morning when you kissed me
And got up out of bed
I moved into the very spot
Where you had laid your head
I felt the warmth of your love move into me
And I knew you are all I'll ever need

As I laid there and I watch you
Getting ready for your day
The sunlight through the window
Put a glow upon your face
I felt your love spread out
All inside of me
And I knew you're all I'll ever need

You are all I'll ever need
Bigger than the air I breathe
You're everything that means
A thing to me
You are all I'll ever need
That's what you are to me
You are love and you are life
You are all I'll ever need

Now I hear you making coffee
And you call out acting sad
You say if I don't get up now
That you might just get mad
But I hide my face underneath the sheets
And pretend to be asleep

Now you're laughing as you jump on me
To tell me goodbye
Your hair smells just like sunshine
There's that something in your eye
And I love the words I know
You'll say to me
You're all I ever need

"I'd Love You To Want Me"

When I saw you standing there
I bout fell out my chair
And when you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet.

Now it took time for me to know
what you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes.

Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be.

You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feeling show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave.

"Wonderful Wonderful"

Sometimes we walk hand in hand by the sea
And we breathe in the cool salty air
You turn to me with a kiss in your eye
And my heart feels a thrill beyond compare

Then your lips cling to mine
It's wonderful wonderful
Oh so wonderful my love

Sometimes we stand on the top of the hill
And we gaze at the earth and the sky
I turn to you and you melt in my arms
There we are darling only you and I

What a moment to share
It's wonderful wonderful
Oh so wonderful my love

This world is full of wondrous things it's true
But they wouldn't have much meaning without you

Some quiet evening I sit by your side
And we're lost in a world of our own
I feel the glow of your unspoken love
I'm aware of the treasure that I own

And I say to my self
It's wonderful wonderful
Oh so wonderful my love

Shelter From The Storm

And here I am, and here I'll stay
I will be your shelter
A shelter for your heart
I will be a harbor when the world is cold and dark
I will stand beside you
Through this whole life long
To love you and to give you
Shelter from the storm
You are the love, love of my life

Til the stars in heavenFall down from the skyTil the silent waters and the rivers all run dryI will stand beside youThrough this whole life longTo love you and to be yourShelter from the storm

"Me And You And A Dog Named Boo"

I remember to this day
The bright red Georgia clay
And how it stuck to the tires
After the summer rain
Will power made that old car go
A woman's mind told me that so
Oh how I wish
We were back on the road again

Me and you and a dog named boo
Travellin' and livin' off the land
Me and you and a dog named boo
How I love being a free man

I can still recall
The wheat fields of St. Paul
And the morning we got caught
Robbing from an old hen
Old McDonald he made us work
But then he paid us for what it was worth
Another tank of gas
And back on the road again

I'll never forget the day
We motored stately into big L.A.
The lights of the city put settlin'
Down in my brain
Though it's only been a month or so
That old car's buggin' us to go
We've gotta get away and get back on
The road again

"Stoney"

I've known her since we both were kids,
I recall the silly things we did
She would want to ride up on my back
To keep from stepping on a crack
I didn't think of it back then
But even when she did not win
She was happy just to play
Stoney likes to live out everyday

Stoney, happy all the time
Stoney, live is summertime
The joy you find in living everyday
Stoney, how I love your simple ways

The times when no one understood
Seems that Stoney always would
We walk for hours in the sand
She would always try and hold my hand

Now I don't recollect the time
I fell in love with this old friend of mine
Or when I first saw in her eyes
What she tried so not to hide.

"Here You Are"

Well hello,
Never thought I'd see that face again
Lord I can't remember when the last time was
But here you are
Hidden in a box of odds and ends
Tucked between some pictures of old friends
My Old Friend
These things just needed going through
The last thing I thought I'd find is you

But here you are
Smiling that smile
Breezy as a summer day
And here you are
Looking at me that easy way
As if to say, here you are

Well I know I really ought to toss you out
Some day I'll just have to lie about why you're here
But here I am
Taking another chance with you
Taking another glance or two
At those eyes
And here's a kiss for old time's sake
Thank God that hearts don't really break

We lost each other then lost track
But I had a feeling one day you'd be back
And here you are

"I Long To See My Home"

I'm so tired of feeling so alone
So scared I'm sick inside
I long to see my home
On yellow river

"Yellow River"

So long boy you can take my place,
Got my papers got my pay
So pack my bags and I'll be on my way
To yellow river

Put my guns down the war is won
Fill my glass high the time has come
I'm going back to the place that I love
Yellow river

Yellow river yellow river
Is in my mind and in my eyes
Yellow river yellow river
Is in my blood it's the place I love
Got no time for explanation got no time to lose
Tomorrow night you'll find me
Sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river

Cannon fire lingers in my mind
I'm so glad that I'm still alive
And I've been gone for such a long time
From yellow river

I remember the nights were cool
I can still see the water pool
And I remember the girl that I knew
On yellow river

"Don't Expect Me To Be Your Friend"

I stopped sending flowers to your apartment
You said you aren't home much anymore
I stopped dropping by without an appointment
Cause I'd hear laughter coming through your door.

Sometimes late at night you'll still call me
Just before you close your eyes to sleep
You make me vow to try and stop by sometime
Baby that's a promise I can't keep.

I love you too much to ever start liking you
So lets just let the story kinda end
I love you too much to ever start liking you
So don't expect me to be your friend.

I don't walk down through the village or other places
That we used to go to all the time
I'm trying to erase you from my memory
Cause thinking of you jumbles up my mind.

You always act so happy when I see you
You smile that way you take my hand and then
Introduce me to your latest lover
That's when I feel the walls start crashing in.

"Thinking Of You"

When I got back to Atlanta
A whole lot worse for the wear
I may have lost the world I love
But at least I had been there
Lonesome, hurt and worried
With not a lot to do
Driving down Stone Mountain Road
Trying not to think of you

The southern woods are warm
And still
They lay good on my mind
And surely but so slowly
I'm starting to unwind
Trying not to think of things
That you did or didn't do
Here I am once again
Trying not to think of you

But I all do is think of you
And where you might be now
What's new with you?
Do you still have Boo?
I gotta find a way some how
To stop thinking of you

I wonder who I'll find this time
To turn my head for awhile
Maybe I'll pick a Georgia peach
Or maybe walk a mile
Whichever way it
Don't much make a damn what I do
'Cause either way I'll spend my time
Trying not to think of you

"Armstrong"

Black boy in Chicago
Playin' in the street
Not enough to wear
Not near enough to eat
But don't you know he saw it
On that July afternoon
Saw a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

Young girl in Calcutta
Barely eight years old
The fly's that swarm the market place
Will see she don't grow old
But don't you know she heard it
On a July afternoon
Heard a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

River's getting dirty
The wind in getting bad
War and hate are killing off
The only earth we have
But the whole world stopped to watch it
On that July afternoon
Watched a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

And I wonder if a long time ago
Somewhere in the universe
They watched a man named Adam
Walk upon the earth

"Try"

Finding love is meaningful
Making love is beautiful
Try
I can sense when I'm close to you
What I feel is getting through to you
Try
Try - Try

"Goodbye Is Just Another Word"

If the time should ever come
That you feel our race is run
And you're old brass bed's the only
thing that we share
If you think our ships come in
Let's just break it off my friend
Cause nothings worse than playing like you care.

There's nothing that's so final about leaving
Even though I know that's what you've heard
Just like forgive, forget and try again
Goodbye is just another word.

If you feel the time is right
And you sneak off in the night
And live out all those stories in your head
When your shiny knight goes home
And you're left there all alone
And you need a friend remember what I said.

"P.S. I Love You"

Dear I thought I'd drop a line
The weather's cool the folks are fine
I'm in bed each night at nine
And P.S. I love you

Yesterday we had some rain
But all in all I can't complain
Was it dusty on the train
And P.S. I love you

Write to the Browns
As soon as you're able
They came around to call

I burned a hole
In the dinning room table
Let me see I guess that's all

Nothing else for me to say
And so I'll close but by the way
Everybody's thinking of you
And P.S. I love you

"A Day In The Life Of A Love"

Hey baby, you're a beautiful lady
But I guess that you know it
You sure turn my head around
And I'm sure that I show it

If you'll take the chance on romance
When this dance is over
Maybe we could slide away
To a quieter place

This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
How could we ever know until we try
This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
We'll surly make it last till morning light

What cha saw baby
Does it so to crazy
Well I just had to say it
When my heart speaks to me
I have to obey it

Why don't you say yes
And we'll make the best
Of the rest of the night

But then again
It might never end

"It Sure Took A Long, Long Time"

I'm sure it might have grown old
Like most young things usually do
and dangling a line to try and find your mind
For that I can't blame you.

Now I'm not questioning your motives
For all the silly things you've done
Now you're coming round putting yourself down
Telling me I always was the one

It sure took a long time to miss me
A long time for you to come around
A long time to find what was wrong
It sure took a long, long time.

The magic that we had together
Seems so much stronger than before
What did I learn to make the love return
O girl I've got to learn some more.

"My First Time"

I was a inexperienced boy who just turned fifteen
She was a worldly woman exactly my same age
And I had heard the stories going around about her
Ah what I heard put my young blood into a rage

So I asked to take her out one Friday evening
Scared to death I'd find what I was looking for
And when she got into my car She sat close to me
Then reached right out and firmly locked my door

My first time
Going through my mind
Was this is my first time
My first time
Please be kind this is my first time

Then she suggested we drive out somewhere into the country
Then she suggested we climb into the back seat
But when she asked how long I thought that I could last there
Ah I had to confess it was all over for me

You see this is my first time
I was so blind
This is my first time
My first time
You were so kind
My first time

My first time
It was so fine
My first time
