Lonestar Album

See the moon and the stars, how they sparkle and shine
Baby all around us now
Headlights on the cars and bright neon signs
They illuminate this town
Then I see your face, look in your eyes
And before I realize

Out go the lights... beat goes the heart
Rush goes the blood, sendin' your love to every part
Baby when you look at me, the only thing I can see
Is the two of us makin' love, alone in the dark of the night
Out, out, out... out go the lights

The world is turnin' around, but the night is still young
And girl I want to take it slow
And let a candle burn down, 'till our bodies are one
Breathless in the afterglow
The way you look, the way this feels
I just can't wait until 
Out go the lights... beat goes the heart
Rush goes the blood, sendin' your love to every part
Baby when you look at me, the only thing I can see
Is the two of us makin' love, alone in the dark of the night
Out, out, out... out go the lights

The way you look, the way this feels
I just can't wait until

Out go the lights... beat goes the heart
Rush goes the blood, sendin' your love to every part
Baby when you look at me, the only thing I can see
Is the two of us makin' love, alone in the dark of the night

She introduced herself as Amy, said call me Caroline for short
I just moved in three doors down so I wouldn't be the girl next door
And I knew the shoes she wasn't wearing fit her just right
She said, "Hey, man did you know that somebody left your grass out in the yard
all night?"

She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable
She's so different and that's what's wonderful
She's unusually unusual
And that's beautiful to me

She had a tattoo above her ankle of a trident submarine
She said it symbolizes awesome powers hidden deep within our dreams
And her diamond eyes, different in color, held me captive in their light
And she said "Hey, man did you know we used to be brothers in some past life?" 
She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable
She's so different and that's what's wonderful
She's unusually unusual
And that's beautiful to me

Some people may think she's strange, a different cup of tea
But she just does it for me

She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable
She's so different and that's what's wonderful
She's unusually unusual

Got a picture of you I carry in my heart
Close my eyes to see it when the world gets dark
Got a memory of you I carry in my soul
I wrap it close around me when the nights get cold
If you asked me how I'm doin' I'd say just fine
But the truth is baby, if you could read my mind

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time you're still with me it's true
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside
Baby, baby, oh baby, not a day goes by

I still wait for the phone in the middle of the night
Thinkin' you might call me if your dreams don't turn out right
And it still amazes me that I lie here in the dark
Wishin' you were next to me, your head against my heart
If you asked me how I'm doing I'd say just fine
But the truth is baby, if you could read my mind

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time you're still with me it's true
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside
Baby, baby, oh baby, not a day goes by

Minutes turn to hours, and the hours to days
Seems it's been forever that I've felt this way

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time you're still with me it's true
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside

I see those other guys
I hear 'em tell you lies
That same old song they sing
They only want one thing
I know you're searching for
Something that's so much more
I wanna give it to ya

I wanna be the one
The one who makes you feel something real
The one and only one
The one who gets down deep - plays for keeps
I wanna be the one
The one who talks it through - listens to you
Please let me be the one
The one who truly knows you - just let me show you

I wanna make you see
The possibilty
Of all that we can be
For all eternity
And when you fall in love
Yeah, really fall in love
I wanna be the one

Girl you don't know me well
But someday time will tell
These dreams I promise you
You'll see them all come true
I'm talking band of gold
I'm talking soul to soul
And I ain't just talking baby... ooh

I wanna be the one
The one who makes you feel something real
The one and only one
The one who gets down deep - plays for keeps
I wanna be the one
The one who talks it through - listens to you
Please let me be the one
The one who truly knows you - just let me show you

And when you fall in love
Yeah, really fall in love
I wanna be the one

Sometimes I feel just like a fly in a soup bowl
Sometimes I feel like I'm on top of a heap
Sometimes I feel like I'm the king of the castle
Sometimes I feel like just a bump on a street
I got my highs and lows
Some days it's touch and go
But baby, this I know

When you're with me
I feel like singing
It's like I'm swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin'
It's like you're sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
When you're with me

You are a lazy summer day on a porch swing
You are a night running wild on the town
My red Ferrari racing me down a back street
My pick-me-up when I'm a little bit down
No matter where I go, whatever dice I roll
Baby, this I know

When you're with me
I feel like singing
It's like I'm swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin'
It's like you're sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
When you're with me

I got my highs and lows
Some days it's touch and go
But baby, this I know

When you're with me
I feel like singing
It's like I'm swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin'
It's like you're sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away

Fire, smoke, bad joke
That's what my life's been turned into
Hurt, cry, pray to die
That's all that I've got left to do

Without you
I feel my heart go up in flames
Without you
Nobody's here to see me cry
Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes
Without you
I'm the only one I've got left
And I can't live with myself
Without you, oh without you

Guilt, shame, I'm to blame
For all the pain I put you through
Cold, stoned, mind blown
There's nothin' left for me to lose

Without you
I feel my heart go up in flames
Without you
Nobody's here to see me cry
Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes
Without you
I'm the only one I've got left
And I can't live with myself
Without you, oh without you

Time goes by
Still, I'm

Without you
I feel my heart go up in flames
Without you
Nobody's here to see me cry
Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes
Without you
I'm the only one I've got left
And I can't live with myself

He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
And when he heard the sound 
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
And said "Daddy when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there

She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes

I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shining down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there

We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
Oh I'm already

Lotta people talkin' 'bout
Givin' up and walkin' out
These days
Made up their minds don't want the hurt
They're resigned not to do the work
It takes

Well whatever happened to hangin' on
And goin' the extra mile
Whatever happened to believin'

Let's bring it back
A true love that lasts
Let's take a chance
At spending a lifetime together
In a slow dance
In a deep trance
In a romance
Let's bring it back

Used to be a simple thing
All it took was a simple dream
And love
And when the ride got a little rough
You'd buckle down, stick it out
And rise above

Well, whatever happened to knowin'
That we kept the promise made
Whatever happened to those days 
Let's bring it back
A true love that lasts
Let's take a chance
At spending a lifetime together
In a slow dance
In a deep trance
In a romance
Let's bring it back

The kissin', the laughin', the passion
Let's bring it back
That's what two hearts should have

In a slow dance
In a deep trance
In a romance
Let's bring it back

In a slow dance
All that romance

Sideways, cockamamie
The idea is just a little too brainy
That a fine girl like you would
Bumpety-bump with a midnight fool
I took the fall in a neon minute
You were there and I feel right in it

Uh-oh, it just hit me
The rattlesnake if love done bit me
I'm goin' down, getting dizzy
Can't get enough of your kissy, kissy
No cure, I don't want one
Oh baby, this must be love

Lunchtime and I eat a sandwich
I think of you and the world starts to vanish
Call you up from a cell phone
Smack in the middle of a blasting zone
You get me so excited
I can't wait for my fuse to be lighted

Uh-oh, it just hit me
The rattlesnake if love done bit me
I'm goin' down, getting dizzy
Can't get enough of your kissy, kissy
No cure, I don't want one
Oh baby, this must be love

You got me lost in a wonderland
Love songs played by a marching band
Lips like roses, skin like cream
Please don't wake me from this dream

Uh-oh, it just hit me
The rattlesnake if love done bit me
I'm goin' down, getting dizzy
Can't get enough of your kissy, kissy
No cure, I don't want one

I remember that kiss in a cold world, oh girl
Sunlight fell from your lips, tenderly you shattered me
Somehow you touched me like no one else
Slipped into my soul like a prayer

Baby, with the sweetest kiss
You came along and stole my breath
Tore down my defenses with a whisper
Oh you showed me how love can be
You broke through to my heart
Softly, baby softly

You're like God in this world, fragile, beautiful
There's so much trust in your eyes, they make me remember blue
Skies and sunshine
I wanna be what you see in me
I wanna love you the way you love me

Baby, with the sweetest kiss
You came along and stole my breath
Tear down my defenses with a whisper
Oh you show me how love can be
You break through to my heart
Softly

I don't wanna be that strong if it means being alone
I wanna stay with you where I belong
And let you show me just how good love can be
You break through to my heart
Softly, baby softly

Ooh, when I see her in my tee shirt
Brushin' her teeth, dancin' to the radio
Ooh, her coffee and her kissin'
The way she looks at me, I hate to see her leave
But I sure love watchin' her go

Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
I keep fallin' in love with every single simple
Ordinary little thing she does

Ooh, paintin' on her toenails
Watchin' TV, got her mama on the telephone
Ooh, in a corner at a party
She puts down her drink, gives me a little wink
And says wait 'til I get you home

Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
I keep fallin' in love with every single simple
Ordinary little thing she does

Listenin' to her breathe, watchin' her when she sleeps
The bubbles in her bath, the funny little laugh
Oh yea, oh yea, oh yea

Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
I keep fallin' in love with every single simple

Walking down the street in L.A.
Caught in the middle of a heat wave
Pass by the star of John Wayne
And I think to myself how times change

Now where the cattle once roamed
There's a Burger King and a peep show
We do everything from our cell phones
Ridin' in out steel broncos

Oh it's Dow Jones, hi, low, price of corn in Tokyo
Wild west neighborhood
It's quick draw credit cards, the world turns but in my heart
I'm ridin' down the range like a good, good, good, good cowboy

I do what I say and say what I mean
Try to get a grip on the American dream
Sunrise to Sunset Strip I'll be
Workin' to the bone just to try to have a voice
When Friday night comes I'm gonna turn up the noise
Like a good, good, good cowboy

Dollar don't go far these days
The new frontier is a freeway
5PM is a rat race
Even Eastwood moved to Monterey
Lean Cuisines, microwaves, silicone and cellophane
Aliens in Hollywood
Bright lights, big city, concrete nitty gritty
But I'm ridin' the range like a good, good, good, good cowboy 
I do what I say and say what I mean
Try to get a grip on the American dream
Sunrise to Sunset Strip I'll be
Workin' to the bone just to try to have a voice
When Friday night comes I'm gonna turn up the noise

The angels can sing, but they don't know it all.
Heaven may have, streets made of gold,
But they don't have you like I have you to hold.
And like a prayer, you're everywhere!
That's how I know there's
No greater love!
When it's just you and me
That's how it's meant to be, and I know
There's no greater love!
We'll always be together,
On both sides of forever, I know
There's no greater love!

Ohhh Oh Oh

The touch of your fingers, on my skin,
I want to lay down beside you again.
The taste of your lips, pressed against mine,
Lost in this moment, way beyond time.
And like a prayer, you're everywhere!
That's how I know there's
No greater love!
When it's just you and me,
That's how it's meant to be, and I know
There's no greater love!
We'll always be together,
On both sides of forever I know
There's no greater love!

I would lay down my life for you,
And you would do the same for me,
I know it's true.
With every breath I breathe,
Baby, I believe,
There's no greater love!
When it's just you and me,
That's how it's meant to be and I know
There's no greater love!
We'll always be together,
On both sides of forever, I know
There's no greater love!
