Shelby Lynne Album

I tell myself his mem'ry doesn't hold me
But there's a picture of the man I say I'm over
By my bed, face down my bed

I'm so glad that broken heart's behind me
And I no longer let his love confine me
Now I'm free, this prisoner's finally free

But I don't need flowers, sweet talk
To fill wee hours of the night, now I'm alright
I lay down each night and turn out the light
And tell myself that I'm not lonely
With tears rollin' down my face, I'll lie myself to sleep

The girls down at the office think I'm so strong
And though my heart is breakin' I'm not lettin' on
What's inside, oh, I keep it all inside

A delivery boy brings in a dozen roses
And as I watch some lucky girl unfold them
I walk away, in tears I walk away

But I don't need flowers, sweet talk
To fill wee hours of the night, now I'm alright
I lay down each night and turn out the light
And tell myself that I'm not lonely
With tears rollin' down my face, I'll lie myself to sleep
I'll lie myself to sleep, ooh, I'll lie myself to sleep

Weather man says it's rainin' again
Perfect night for stayin' in
Well, lookin' at you I don't doubt that it's true

And did I hear you say
Baby put on a smile
Kick your shoes off and stay a while
Well since you asked me to, I don't mind if I do

That ol' clock can just tick off the wall
I ain't worried 'bout the time at all
Long as I'm makin' time with you
And holdin' you tight

In the light of the radio
I'll whisper, "Baby, I love you so"
And since you want me too
I don't mind if I do

Ooh, that ol' clock can just tick off the wall
I ain't worried 'bout the time at all
Long as I'm makin' time with you
And holdin' you tight

In the light of the radio
I'll whisper, "Baby, I love you so"
And since you want me too
I don't mind if I do

Just as long as it's you, baby
I don't mind if I do

Written by Ed Bruce, Miriam Silver

I can't believe your calling me
Did you run out of things to do
Are you bothered by my old memory
Has guilt got the best of you
I can't imagine what you'd want with me
You must have come up short tonight
But I thought you were happy being free
But your voice tells me that's not right
Guess things are tough all over
Even on the single side of town
I guess it's harder than you thought it be
Without my loving arms around
And now the beating of your lonely heart
Is the cold nights only sound
Guess things are tough all over
When old memories get you down
Well you ask me if I think about you
What are you expecting me to say

Well I do but I can live without you
It's too late to ask anyway
So if you're calling for sympathy
Cause I'm getting harder to forget
I won't be a one night remedy
To help you live with your regret
Guess things are tough all over
Even on the single side of town
I guess it's harder than you thought it be
Without my loving arms around
And now the beating of your lonely heart
Is the cold nights only sound
Guess things are tough all over

[No lyrics]

I feel the blues comin' on
'Cause I feel you being gone
It's somethin' I wish I could lose
Baby's gone blues

There ain't no sunshine in sight
'Cause you're gonna leave me tonight
My heart is sure feeling bruised
Baby's gone blues

Ohh oh, love has gone wrong
It's so hard on my heart going from good into gone
There ain't no easy way back into nights before you
Baby's gone blues
Baby's gone blues

It's like a razor on me
Knowing you wanna be free
I'm standing here feeling used
Baby's gone blues

There ain't no dreams coming true
I won't recover from you
There ain't no heartache like you
Baby's gone blues

Ohh oh, love has gone wrong
It's so hard on my heart going from good into gone
There ain't no easy way back into nights before you
(You)
Baby's gone blues
Baby's gone blues
Baby's gone blues

(Tururu ruru ru)
Baby's gone blues
(Ruru ruru)
(Tururu ruru ru)
Baby's gone blues
(Ruru ruru)

See the lines in my face
There's one for everyday
I've lived without you
And held you only in my mind

See these hands, how they shake
How long it will take
Before I leave you in the past
Where you belong?

One day I might forget
But right now I'm not that strong
So I'll hold on
'Til a better memory comes along

If someone could really touch me
The way you used to do
If she could find one single feelin'
That didn't start with me and you

Maybe then I might forget
But right now I'm not that strong
So I'll hold on
'Til a better memory comes along

Maybe then I might forget
But right now I'm not that strong
So I'll hold on
'Til a better memory comes along

I'm holding on
'Til a better memory comes along

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line

Oh, I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line

As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind, both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line

You've got a way to keep me on your side
You give me 'cause for love, I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line

'Cause you're mine, I walk the line
'Cause you're mine, I walk the line

That old picture on the dresser goes with your things
We've seperated everything between us
The rocking chair in the corner goes with mine
You can take the bed and have the TV
It's the kindest that we've been in a long, long time
And I'll keep the stereo if you don't mind
But there's still one thing we've got left between us
And we don't know what to do, I wonder if we thought this through

What about the love we made?
She's upstairs in her room, cryin' over me and you
Lord we never meant to hurt her this way
We've divided everything me and you
Now what about the love we made?
Even her little heart right in two

We've told her at least a thousand times we love her
But who could blame her if she won't believe us
And no matter what happens that won't change
Aren't we the same ones who told her
She'd never see this day?
It filled us both with shame when she told her dolly
"Now promise me that you won't leave me too"
If there's something I've done wrong
And it was more than I could take when she said "Mommy

Well, I'll be good for you"
Oh, what about the love we made?
She's upstairs in her room
Crying over me and you
Lord we never meant to hurt her this way
We've divided everything me and you
Even her little heart right in two
What about the love we made?Now what about the love we made?

Missed the Saturday dance
Heard they crowded the floor
I couldn't bear it without you
Don't get around much anymore

Thought I'd visit the club
Got as far as the door
They'd have asked me about you
Don't get around much anymore

Darling, I guess my mind's more at ease
But nevertheless, why stir up memories?

Been invited on dates
I might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore

Oh, darling, I guess my mind's more at ease
But nevertheless, oh, why stir up memories?

Been invited on dates
I might have gone but what for
Oh, it's awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore

It's awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore
