I Can Almost See It written by J.D. Souther It hurts to say goodbye And when the words are going by The wind can blow them right back in your eye You can almost see it Time will let you know And when you turn around to go The aching in your heart begins to show You can almost see it You can almost see it You can almost see it You can almost see it going by So you take another train But the tracks all look the same They run around in circles like a game You can almost see it I can almost see it I can almost see it I can almost see it going by |
Love Has No Pride written by Eric Kaz & Libby Titus I've had bad dreams too many times To think that they don't mean much anymore And fine times have gone and left my sad home And the friends who once cared just walk out my door But love has no pride when I call out your name And love has no pride when there's no one to blame But I'd give anything to see you again I've been alone too many nights To think that you could come back again I've heard you talk She's crazy to stay But this love hurt's me so I don't care what you say But love has no pride when I call out your name And love has no pride when there's no one to blame But I'd give anything to see you again If I could buy your love Then I'd surely try my friend And if I could pray My prayers would never end But if you want me to beg I'll fall down on my knees And ask you to come back I'd be pleading for you to come back I'd beg for you to come back to me Love has no pride when I call out your name And love has no pride when there's no one but myself to blame But I'd give anything to see you again Yes I'd give anything to see you again |
Silver Threads and Golden Needles written by Jack Rhodes & Dick Reynolds I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room All I want's the love you promised beneath the haloed moon But you think I should be happy with your money and your name And hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheating game Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine And I dare not drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine You can't buy my love with money cause I never was that kind Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine And I dare not drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine You can't buy my love with money cause I never was that kind Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine |
Desperado written by Don Henley & Glenn Frey Desperado Why don't you come to your senses You've been out riding fences for so long now Oh you're a hard one But I know that you've got your reasons These things that are pleasing you will hurt you somehow Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy She'll beat you if she's able The queen of hearts is always your best bet Well it seems to me some fine things Have been laid upon your table But you only want the things that you can't get Desperado you know you ain't getting younger Your pain and your hunger are driving you home And freedom, oh freedom Well that's just some people talking Your prison is walking through this world all alone Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime Sky won't snow and the sun won't shine It's hard to tell the night time from the day You're losing all your highs and lows Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away Desperado Why don't you come to your senses Come down from your fences Open the gate It may be raining But there's a rainbow above you You better let somebody love you Let somebody love you Before it's too late |
Don't Cry Now written by J.D. Souther If you've ever been taken for money If you've ever gone down with your pride If you've ever stood up for a good friend and lost You know that the river is wide Like a painter who waits for the sunrise With a picture in both of his hands It's like part of your life is already begun With something that you don't understand But don't cry now Oh don't cry now Don't cry now No don't cry now When you're lying alone in the night time And your loneliness turns into fear With the words of your memory fading and falling You're drowning in a river of tears But don't cry now Ooh don't cry now If you've ever thought much about freedom You might find yourself caught in some door With somebody you love holdin' your homeward hand You been weepin' but you don't know what for But don't cry now Oh don't cry now Don't cry now Ooh don't cry now Don't cry now Woah don't cry now |
Sail Away written by Randy Newman In America you get food to eat Don't have to run through the jungle and scuff up your feet You just sing about Jesus and drink wine all day It's great to be an American Ain't no lions or tigers Ain't no mamba snake Just the sweet watermelon and the buckwheat cake Everybody is as happy as a man can be So climb aboard little wog and sail away with me Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay In America every man is free To take care of his home and his family You'll be as happy as a monkey in a monkey tree You're all gonna be an American Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay |
Colorado written by Rick Roberts Hey Colorado It was not so long ago I left your mountains to try life on the road But I'm tired of that race It was much too fast a pace And I think I've found my place Colorado, I want to come home I had a man there but I left him far behind I could have loved him if I'd only had the time Ah but I stopped along my way Just long enough to say That I'd really like to stay But my baby You know I have to go I was too young To know what I'd done I made my plans But I was wrong Yes I was wrong Colorado Is it too late to change my mind I've done some thinking And I'm trying hard to find A way to come back home Cause I've been so very long alone Won't you take care of your own Colorado I think I'm coming home I want to come home Let me come home |
The Fast One written by J.D. Souther You don't know how I feel You don't seem to care If I let you see it through my eyes You wouldn't see anyone there It's no wonder I been crying It's no wonder that I'm blue My crazy heart was gone and let somebody know When it's time for me to go Tired of being lonley Tired of what you do to me Hear it raining in my heart Well I've been lonely before But I've been so long without sunlight I can't take another day more No wonder I been crying It's no wonder I been blue My crazy heart can't tell me why I can't tell you goodbye Oh no, I'm tired of all this tragedy I'm giving you back your misery You better put on a fast one I think I'm gonna pull through You better play another fast one No matter what you do Put your money in a fast one I don't wanna hear the blues Put on another fast one Trying to forget about you Well it ain't no wonder I been crying It's no wonder I been blue My crazy heart can't tell me why I can't tell you goodbye Darling I'm tired of being lonely Tired of what you put me through Now you better put on a fast one If you want me to pull through You better play another fast one No matter what you do Put your money in a fast one I don't wanna hear the blues Put on another fast one Trying to forget about you |
Everybody Love A Winner written by Bill Williams & Booker T. Jones Once I had fame Oh I was full of pride Had lots of friends Always here right by my side Well my fame oh it died Now my friends all try to hide Everybody loves a winner Everybody loves a winner But when you lose, you lose alone Everywhere I turned There was a hello and smile I never thought They'd be gone after a while Well my friends let me down And the smiles turned to frowns Everybody loves a winner Everybody loves a winner But when you lose, you lose alone Once I had love Ah but I couldn't be true To get back that love There ain't nothing I wouldn't do Well I've loved And I've lost And now I'll pay the cost Everybody loves a winner Everybody loves a winner Everybody loves a winner But when you lose, you lose alone |
I Believe In You written by Neil Young Now that you find yourself losing your mind Are you here again Finding that what you once thought was real Is gone and changing Now that you made yourself love me Do you think I can change it in a day How can I place you above me Am I lying to you when I say That I believe in you O-oh, O-oh, O-oh I believe in you Coming to you at night I see my questions I feel wiped out Wishing that maybe in a year or two We can laugh and let it all out Now that you made yourself love me Do you think I can change it in a day How can I place you above me Am I lying to you when I say That I believe in you O-oh, O-oh, O-oh I believe in you O-oh, O-oh, O-oh I believe in you |
