Kenny Rogers Album

He was sitting on a bar stool
A picture from a cheating song
She'd been standing by the jukebox
Dropping quarters all night long.

He said, tell me: are you lonely?
Is there some place we can go?
She said: cowboy, you know I'm lonely
But there's something you should know.

If you wanna find gold go looking in the mountains
If you wanna find silver go digging in stones
If you wanna find heaven go reading in the Bible
If you wanna find love go looking at home.

She touched the gold ring on his finger
And held it to the jukebox light
And she said. Stranger, think what you're losing
If you leave here with me tonight.

So he hold her body closer
She felt feelings she'd never known
And he said: thank you, for the lesson
And if you need me I'll be at home.

If you wanna find gold go looking in the mountains
If you wanna find silver go digging in stones
If you wanna find heaven go reading in the Bible
If you wanna find love go looking at home...

You're that one special woman
I thought I'd never find
With the stream to be gentle
And the courage to be kind.

Though it hasn't all been roses
Still I know you understand
One of these nights
I'm gonna take you by the hand.

And lay you down on a bed of roses
In tha peaceful shelter only love can provide
I'll lay you down on a bed of roses
And then I'll lay me down right by your side.

There's no diamond on your finger
Just a simple wedding bend
Since your knight in shining armor
Is just an ordinary man.

Though I promised you a kingdom
And we don't have all we planned
One of these nights when we're making believe
I'm gonna take you by the hand.

And lay you down on a bed of roses
In tha peaceful shelter only love can provide
I'll lay you down on a bed of roses
And then I'll lay me down right by your side...

Someone must feel like a fool tonight
Knowing they let you go
Someone is wishing they've done you right
Regreting they hurt you so.

Now that you're here in my loving arms
Forget all your yesterdays
Someone must feel like a fool tonight
For letting you slip away.

When I see the moon shining in your eyes
A feeling comes over me
The warmth of your touch makes me realize
Just how lucky can I be.

Surely he knows and he's sorry now
That he turned your love away
Someone must feel like a fool tonight
Knowing you're here to stay...

You might think I'm crazy carry on this way
Calling you up in the middle of the night
But I've got something that I just can't wait to say.

I've got two good reasons I've been thinking of
Two good reasons why we should be in love
Come on, baby, it's so plain to see
I've got two good reasons about you and me.

You might think I'm desperate
But maybe I just might be
How can I convince you to see the love
Come on, baby, won't you take a chance with me.

I've got two good reasons I've been thinking of
Two good reasons why we should be in love
Come on, baby, it's so plain to see
I've got two good reasons about you and me...

As I walk down this busy street
I think about your leaving
How my life may never be the same
I know I should be planning ways
To enjoy this endless freedom
Losing you has put my heart in chains.

Darling, some prisons don't have walls
Your memory won't let me go at all
I found no way out since you've been gone
Some prisons don't have walls.

Every night I turn the tv on
To break the sound of silence
For a while it takes you off my mind
Just when I feel over you reality surrounds me.

There I am right back doing time.

Darling, some prisons don't have walls
Your memory won't let me go at all
I found no way out since you've been gone
Some prisons don't have walls...

[No lyrics]

I stopped by the house we called our home
It was a little rundown, the grass was overgrown
Its screendoor was opening with the wind
I thought I heard you called my name again.

I wish that I could hold on to the past
Cos everything is changing way too fast
I can't help it long for how it used to be
When you were here and you were loving me.

I finally got that near to go inside
I made it to our bedroom door to cry
I always thought that we could come back home
These empty rooms just prove that I was wrong.

I wish that I could hold on to the past
Cos everything is changing way too fast
I can't help it long for how it used to be
When you were here and you were loving me...

Sunshine, you may find my window
But you won't find me
And sunshine, I've got my friend of darkness here
Tonight to hide me.

So sunshine, as far as I'm concerned
I'm where I want to be
And sunshine, as far as you're concerned
Don't be concerned for me.

'Cause she doesn't love me anymore
She doesn't want me, Lord
She doesn't need me anymore
She grew tired of chasing rainbows
But I loved her true
And God you know I tried.

And I guess she was right
'Cause I'm at the end
I found the part but there's no golden sun.

So sunshine, can't you see I'm not alone
Don't bother me
And sunshine, pick up your dawn
And move on down the street...

ll be there for you
You don't have to feel alone
Like a shadow by your side
I'll be with you right or wrong

You stumble and you fall
But you can always lean on me
I'll be there to see you through
I'll be there for you

I'll be there for you
When your dreams seem far away
Even in the darkest night
You can face the world unafraid

And if you close your eyes
You will feel me next to you
No matter what you're going through
I'll be there for you

Here today, here tomorrow
Through the joy, laughter and sorrow
You're in my heart with candid souls
If you could read my mind
You'd know ...

I'll be there for you
The one who comes to your rescue
I'm the one you'll never leave
I'll be there for you
No matter what you going through
I'll be there for you

There's your picture by the bed
I'm gonna leave it where it is
'Cause if I tear it out tonight
My heart would know
But something ain't right
Between me and you.

I'm gonna lie here in the dark
And pretend you're in my arms
And if I can't keep on crying out your name
My heart would think you're here beside me
And things are still the same.

My mind knows it's over
But how do I break it to my heart
If I let it down easy
It'd still be torn apart
And if I tell it the truth
Then the pain is gonna start
My mind knows it's over
But how do I break it to my heart.

When I saw him by your side
I guess it opened up my eyes
And my ears can finally hear your soft goodbye
But my heart still says I'm loving you tonight
And for the rest of its life...
