Slow

Slow, take it slow
Slow, take it slow
Some people are our of their mind
don't know which way to go
Look at me am I so hard to define?
There's just one thing you should know...
I gotta take it slow,
I've got to take it slow,
Bad love was easy to find,
You bought whatever he sold,
Next time around you're gonna do what mamma told ya,
Stand your ground, Don't mess around, you've got to...
Take it slow
You've got to take it slow
Slow, take it slow
Good love is hard to find
But I can feel that its near,
My heart is open to whatever this time
There's nothing to be feared...
If I can take it slow
I'm gonna take it Slow,
(bridge - breakdown)
Slow, take it slow
Slow, take it slow
You and I we're such a wonderful pair
not one thing out of line
You're acting out but im not going there
If we're to make it this time...
we've got to take it slow,
We gotta take it slow
Slow, take it slow
Slow, take it slow (repeat and out)

Goodbye
04:13

Thought I'd be over this by now
Thought I'd forget you somehow
What's wrong I don't feel right
Caught in this blue moonlight
Ridin high, Ten miles of open sky,
nowhere left to run,
Feel like a broken gun,
Can't hold the pain inside
The years went by, so slow
Forlorn, my heart was trapped
so lost I did not know
there ain't no going back
Ridin high, Ten miles of open sky,
but no one left to hold,
It's time I've got to go,
forget this wasted time
Now I'm free, see what it's done to me
on my own when things go south
inside but looking out
no one here but me
Ten miles of open sky
nowhere left to turn
by now you'd think I'd have learned
just how to say Goodbye

Happy

Sometimes I find myself acting kind of strange
Waiting on a corner for you standing in the rain
But when these feelings resolve to something true
I can see is that I am filled with thoughts of you
It's on my mind - that I could love you
I need to tell you, that I can see
A place for us, where we can be Happy
where we can be Happy
Do you ever find yourself, thinking of me
of the future, we might have, and if it's meant to be
I see you watching me, what do you find
are you afraid that you might lose yourself this time
Take a chance - and let me love you
I have to tell you, that I can see
A place for us, where we can be Happy
where we can be Happy
I will be yours if you love me
I need to tell you, that I can see
A place for us, where we can be Happy
where we can be Happy

Days Go By

days go by and I, wonder why
people do the things they do
cheat and lie, laugh and cry
heaven knows that what they've done
we've done
days go by, never knowing why
go around again, go around
and around and around again
god knows we tried, I still wonder why
you decided you couldn't stay by my side
right down to the last, I thought we were past it
still it seems like you gave up just like that, just like that
days go by, never knowing why
go around again, go around
and around and around again
passions lie - but I never saw the signs
they disappear when I turn around
I lost my nerve, you lost your heart
two desperate souls just playing their part
and falling apart
days go by, never knowing why
go around again, go around
and around and around again
I've been around, and I swear there ain't nothing that I
couldn't have found, Still, one thing is true
I searched in vain when I lost you

Bittersweet

She make's him dinner
but she she eats all alone
he shows up late,
as if nothing is wrong
he's away working nearly
all of the time
she needs to talk
but she lets him unwind
love can be easy
or love could be hard but
love was meant to be
bittersweet
He brings home flowers,
shes asleep on the couch
he cleans off the table and
he lets the dog out
moonlight through the window
catches her hair
he whispers "I love you" and
maybe she hears
love can be easy
or love could be hard but
love was meant to be
bittersweet
doorbell keeps ringing
the roast's almost done
he's pouring drinks and
she says "I'll have one"
if just for a night
they're the talk of the town
everyone's dancing,
and he spins her around
love can be easy
or love could be hard but
love was meant to be
bittersweet
All you ever wanted was
not to be alone
But then somewhere along the way
love became your home
love can be easy
or love could be hard but
love was meant to be
bittersweet

Or So We Thought
03:41

Walking down the road
Out of time out of place
Blisters on my toes
Tears roll down my face
Where did you go, Where did you go
Only Yesterday
Heard your voice on the phone
So many plans, you're branching out in new directions.
Striking out on your own
But I couldn't go, there, with you, I Just couldn't go
How could I know what this would all be leading up to?
how could I know?
I remember your smiles the most
you could light me up more than any wine,
I remember the times we'd toast
to our future life or so we thought
Stepping in from outside
hung my coat and locked the door behind me
Drop my keys on the table
Without your voice to remind me
I remember your smile the most
you could light me up more than any wine,
I remember the times we'd toast
to our future life or so we thought

Closer to You
03:53

|

I remember when I met you, some years ago
knew you were special, right from the start
The way you looked at me, that pixie smile,
Made me forget about my troubles for a while
Now, I'm looking for you
cause I want to be, closer to you
I need to be, closer to you
Saw you again in the strangest of places
you were walking down my street in your bare feet,
your eyes were playing as your hips were swaying,
my heart was drifting and it nearly missed a beat
Now, I'm looking for you
cause I want to be, closer to you
I need to be, closer to you
I want to be, closer to you
I want to be, closer to you
Come up to my place, we'll play some music,
I'll make up the words and you can sing along,
You add a dance step and I'm about to move in
The Byrds are singing and you say "I love that song"
No more looking for you
cause I'm gonna be, closer to you
I'm gonna be, closer to you

Someone Like You

I like the way you walk
I like the way you talk
I like the way you sing
You are so curious, you notice everything
Never met anyone like you Never met anyone like you
I look into your eyes and see what you've been through
Never met anyone like you
I like the way you smile
the way you look at me and listen all the while
I like the way you breathe
and when we're close nothing else matters to me
Never met anyone like you Never met anyone like you
I look into your heart and see what it can do
Never met anyone like you
I like the way you move
like you've seen everything - got nothing left to prove
I like the way you love
Giving your energy to everything you touch
Never met anyone like you Never met anyone like you
I look into your eyes there's nothing I can do
I've falling for someone like you
Never felt love like this before
Never knew someone like you
My heart was closed and then you opened up the door
Now I've found something true inside of me,
because of you...
Someone like You

Gertie my Gal
04:07
|
|

Here I am on the fourth of July
Fixing me up some brisket and pie.
maybe later I'll go down to the creek,
skip some stones and cool off my feet,
Oh the water is so cool!
I like the way it tickles my toes
ain't the same though without my Gertie,
now that she's up, up and gone away
My gal don't come round no more
Went off to find her own way
Was it me that made her walk out the door?
Asked her about it but she couldn't say
Driving north in the old pickup truck
Like me and Gertie used to do
Up to the city that she liked so much
I'm hoping I could find her there
The skyscrapers reached to the sky,
I looked up & got some dirt in my eye
Stepped in the road - almost hit by a bus,
Then some street folk took me for a ride
Folks round here play a different tune
I hope my Gertie turns up soon
They say I don't understand the rules
Ain't none these folks heard of a lazy afternoon?
Told myself I would never give up, (but)
Gertie don't want to be found
Sure the city's fine but I've had enough
I'm going back to my town
Must'a been dreamin, I woke up again,
Back in town under the sycamore tree
Thought I heard her barking, turned and looked around
Gertie was right there with me!

Nowhere
03:29

Today's a good day
Today's the best day
Today's a wonderful day
It won't be long
Till we get there
Where we going to? Nowhere
Can you tell me how we'll Get there
We've been searching
for a mighty long time
Don't you know that
we're already there
When I see you now
I still remember the time
We met down on Bleeker street
and I knew you were gonna be mine
We could sit and talk
Till that place closed down
Stumbling the empty streets
With nobody else around
And you'd ask me...
Where we going to? Nowhere
Can you tell me how we'll Get there
We've been searching
for a mighty long time
Don't you know that
we're already there
When tomorrow comes
we're gonna follow the sun
that's what we're gonna do
why don't you come along
you'll see it's true
That we made it
Where we're going to is Nowhere
Wish I could tell you how we got there
We've been searching
for a mighty long time
Don't you know that
you're already there
Where we're going to is Nowhere
Wish I could tell you how we got there
We've been searching
for a mighty long time
Don't you know that
you're already there
