I'll Walk
05:10

I'll walk with you
Down a lonely desert road
I'll stay with you
And help you carry the load
I'll be with you in the loneliest of times
I hope that I am filling in the space between the lines
I'll drive with you
Down a highway in the mountains
I'll park the car
On a side road in the byway
I'll walk with you through the forests and the fields
Hold your hand in mine and hope our love can always be so real
We'll stay there
And live without a single care
I look in the mirror, and what do I see?
I'm the incomplete half of a perfect me
So many people with so many faces
But yours is the one that takes me places
I've got a heart, it's aching for you
I guess now, honey, there's only one thing left to do
So come on now baby, I'll show you the way into my heart
I hope you're there to stay

Bark Like A Dog
03:47
|
|||
Started most days off with my mind on you
Most every morning I would think of you
But there you were, you were off running around
Chasing dreams and pretty scenes like a pound bound hound
Then one morning I woke from my sleep
Saw the evil looking in my eyes at me
I didn't know what I was supposed to be
Cause I'd been basing everything off what I thought you wanted from me
And I can't believe the way you fall
Running after my ball
Bake me a kibble cake
Barking at my love
Bite a finger off my bleeding arm
Bark like a dog
Now I know what I am supposed to be
Cause I've been dangling off the precipice of reality
But I can't believe the way you fall
Running after my ball
Bake me a kibble cake
Barking at my love
Bite a finger off my bleeding arm
Bark like a dog

Homeland Queen
03:52
|

I got a message from your homeland queen
She said, come up and away with me
Cause I'm not messing with my kingdom now
And I'm getting away somehow
She's the girl with the beautiful smile
And hair that makes me fall for miles
And you know, I'm not the kind of guy
To let it all go to waste this time
Through the fire, and through the rain
Over mountains and far away
I will carry her away with me
And we'll go sailing across the sea
I'm in love with your homeland queen
Because she's the only woman for me
You know, no man can love her perfectly
But not half as much as me

Forget About Me
03:01
|
|||
Please, please, please forget about me
Saddle up and ride you home
I'm not the man you really need
I've got a heart of stone
I wanna love you like I should
And honey you know why
But when I look into your eyes
It makes me just wanna die
I know you think you know me well
That's just a trick of time
I guess that you just never learned to read between the lines
You think my world is like a bubble
A place that you can hide
No, I'm not one to deal with trouble
I'm always on the other side
It won't be long til the winter comes
Baby, then you'll know
My heart'll just freeze and I gotta fly
Way down to Mexico
I can't stay in one place for long
It's something I can't do
You should find some other guy
So I can try forgetting you
You want me cause I kissed your lips
And took you where you've never been
I knew on the day I stole your heart
I'd have to give it back again
Yeah, I knew on the day I stole your heart
I'd have to give it back again

Blue Over You
02:38
|
|||
Softer than silk is the skin of my love
The scent of her sweeter than wine
Her eyes shine with light from the heavens above
I wish she could only be mine
Her hair falls in locks down her back like a stream
Her lips are a heavenly bliss
And many a night, when I sleep in a dream
I hold her and give her a kiss
Oh, I'm blue over you
It's hard to believe that I won't see your eyes
Bluer than me without.you
And I gotta accept that I won't see your smile
There's nothing left that I can do
Still, I'm blue over you

Shooting Star
04:12
|
|||
I can't remember another love I've had so far
Who's taken my heart and smashed it into pieces
Like a shooting star
And I can't remember the last time I felt the way I feel right now
But something's telling me that if you leave
The feeling's gonna go away somehow
Like a shooting star
Tearing across the darkened sky
Torn apart
But I don't even wonder why
I don't even wonder why
Many a time I've looked in a mirror and thought to myself
What would a woman like you want to do with a man like me
But one thing's for sure
That this is what love is really all about
It's not something you take
It's something you give so you never run out
Like a shooting star
Falling from eternal light
Into my life
And I don't even wonder why
I don't even wonder why

Kentucky
04:40
|
|||
Well a real Texas cowboy
Wouldn't let himself cry
For the woman that he's missing
But he doesn't know why
It was late in November
And our second goodbye
And I could see the tears forming
When I looked in her eyes
And I admit that it hurts me to know
I can't follow wherever she goes
I can only hope she loves me
And to the stars above me
I wish that I could make her mine
And I'm afraid I might just fall apart
And it's left me with nowhere to start
Cause I left half of my heart
With her in Kentucky
So I drove down ti Little Rock
Got back on my way
Texas by the morning
I saw you yesterday
And I remember with each passing day
How she smiled at me in that way
With the scent of her hair still heavy in the air
And the sound of her voice calling me
Well they told me, "don't let her tie you down"
"She's an angel flying too close to the ground."

You're an angel for loving me
And you're a fool for letting me love you
And I guess it's just confusing me
How a guy like me ended up with a girl like you
But the blue on blue when your eyes meet mine
Are like the horizon where the sea meets the sky
And it just goes to show
There's nothing more fine
And nothing beats this love of mine

Love Feigned
04:10
|
|||
Some call me a cowboy
And I like that ring
Why are there two birds
Wrapped in one string
Don't ask me why
At least not today
I am confused
Don't ask me why
It's not the same
The spark in the eye
Reveals a love feigned
I'm not a cowboy
I'm not trying to be
Someone's being mean
Oh, yodelady
Out in the backyard
Is where I'll be found
Not where I am silent
But where I am sound
And not just a whisper
Not just a moan
But I am a foghorn
Don't ask me why
She had to leave
Th spark in the eye
The stick up her sleeve
If I was a cowboy
Then I wouldn't grieve
Someone's being mean
Oh, yodelady

In Your Arms
04:05
|
|||
Down the other road is a place I wanna go
It's in your arms
It's in your arms
Down the other river there's a place I wanna be
In your arms
In your arms, oh
Down the road before me is a sign that gives a warning
To go home
To go home
If I turn around I know will be found
All alone
On my own
When I saw your face
I knew a perfect grace
Had won my heart
Won my heart
And when I've run the race
I know that you and I
Will never part
Never part

Waking
05:02
|
|||
In the evening I sleep off my waking dream
Quietly I slip away to distant lands unseen
Take me from this dream I'm living
My waking dream
In the morning I may still be sleeping
But keep waking me
From my daily dream
Far below or high above
No telling where my wings will take me
Neither man or animal
Is ever gonna break me
Take me from this dream I'm living
My waking dream
In the morning I may still be sleeping
But keep waking me
Keep waking me
Waking me
From my dream
