I wanna hear your voice again
So I keep hoping and praying I will
I wanna see you smile again
So I keep waiting and wondering how you feel
But you keep looking out the window wondering why
Why we're even trying
I keep coming right back - coming right back to you
I wanna feel your love
I wanna feel your touch
I don't wanna walk away when you're looking at me that way
I wanna be the reason you smile
I wanna be there all the while
I wanna be the one your thinking of
Oh baby - I want your love
Shallow breaths and shaking hands
I'm getting through this once again
I hold my heart out in my hands
If you want it then take it babe you can

Since I've Been Gone
03:42
|
|||
|
What's it like back home now - since i've been gone?
I know the leaves have changed and the air is growing cold
I'm out west now darling - but i'll come home
once my mind stops trying to tell my heart where it should go
Do you ever feel alone?
My hearts beating faster as i'm climbing up this ladder
I feel alone
I'm on my own
Who are your friends now darling - since I've been gone?
Do you frequent bars or do you drink alone?
I can feel the tension so far from home
Or maybe i'm just tired of being alone

Why won't you talk to me Laura?
Baby I don't know what to do - whenever i'm not next to you
Just pick up your telephone Laura
Put on your best dress and i'll put on my cowboy boots
You can tell all your friends i'm crazy
You can tell all your friends whatever you want to
Let's hit the town i'll spin you round Laura
Let's stay out all night dancing under the city lights
Just pick up your telephone Laura
Put on your best dress and i'll put on my cowboy boots
You can tell all your friends i'm crazy
You can tell all your friends whatever you want to
You can tell all your friends i've lost it
and I tell all my friends i'm over you
Baby that aint true
Where did all my money go Laura?
I stayed out all night buying drinks and wasting time
I'll buy you anything you want my Laura
I'm telling you girl - whatever it takes to make you mine

I want your lovin' babe I want your lovin'
I want your lovin' babe I want your lovin'
Without you - tell me what are we gonna do?
I want your lovin' babe I want your lovin'
In the middle of the street - oh girl I want that lovin'
In the middle of the beach - oh girl I want that lovin'
In the middle of a talk - in the middle of a walk
I'm giving you my love and you give it right back
When we're driving in the car - oh girl I want that lovin'
When you're drinking at the bar - oh girl I want that lovin'
When i'm getting down - I need you around
Cause i'm giving you my love and you give it right back

Long Season
02:49
|
|||
|
It's funny when I try and change
At the end of the day I feel the same - just trying to maintain
Baby you're the one that keeps the ground underneath my two feet
Cold wind on my cheek
I know it's been a long season let's not forget about last summer
I'm feeling like I oughta stay - theres nothing in our way
Sit next to me - let past love be
Baby I need you like the sun needs the sky to light up my life
Just like your two eyes
I fall in love to easy - A pretty smile and the things you say
I fall in love to quickly - I fell in love with you that day
I know we lost time but I won't waste it all away
I know we lost time but I won't waste it all today

Give Me Time
02:27
|
|||
|
Hold your head up and fall into me
I'm tired of these dreams - I can't get back to sleep
I'll be gone in the morning - I'll be gone without warning
Give me some time before you say goodbye
Give me time before you say goodbye
If thats all you've got then nothings left - you're tearing me apart
Give me time before you say goodbye
Hold your drink up and sing it with me
We're making our dreams easier to see
I'll be drunk in the morning and i'll be gone without warning

Wiggles
02:11
|
|||
|
I hear you are doing fine - guess what baby so am I
I'm telling all my friends i'm over you
I can dress to impress but that don't make it any less important how I dress when I see you
I'm letting go
Oh I'm trying to rid my mind of you and it's all that I can do
Oh I'm buying another round or two to be happy without you
And i'm going home
Looks like I am just in time - just in time to see you shine
I'm telling all my friends i'm over you
I know that I made a mess blindly chasing cheap success
Now every drink I have is to forget you

The Unknown
03:05
|
|||
|
I can feel it breaking through the ice
and you don't feel anything at all
What could I have said to you to make you turn around?
Here we go - another year out on the road
Raise your glass and toast to the unknown
I can feel you taking hold of me
And your bright eyes are all I need

Closer
03:33
|

|
Girl, I want you to know no matter where you go
I'll be by your side and I love the way you look at me
The way you speak softly when you kiss me late at night
You're all I need (baby I need your love)
Come closer to me
Girl, I need you to know i'd never let you go
I need you by my side tonight
So we can run the town
show this whole world how a couple kids can be so free
We could build ourselves a home
Call it our own
Paint a fence in blue and white
And when i'm home everyday well push the world away
We don't need much - just you and I

Oh Talk to me Caroline
And when you're turning off the lights
You know I love to see you smile girl
So smile at me my Caroline
And we say
I got you and you've got me
And thats all that matters
I got you and you've got me
And it's all for the better
Sing me a song Caroline
we'll sing it in the country night
And I don't want you to go
Sing me a song Caroline

Goodbye Darling
04:57
|
|||
|
I felt hope and I wanted change
I never have time to stay
No I don't - but my love is true
I hold my breath - goodbye darling
I'll wait for you
I need to get back to you
I need to get back home to you
You say hope is a constant state of motion - like the moon and the ocean
A love like this don't have to be so complicated
So I hold my breath - goodbye darling
I'll fight for you
