| Lucky
In Love
He was a hot blooded rebel, he was
aiming to please
He had more than a tattoo up his
sleeve
Marylou, Peggy Sue, Suzy Q, Norma
Jean
He was pretty as a picture on his
motorbike
He never met a mirror that he didn't
like
Sorry dude, with your rude attitude,
take a hike
Goodness, gracious, mercy me
Somebody tell me when will I be
Lucky, lucky in love
Roll myself a seven when I throw
the dice
I've been waiting for the king of
hearts
Still I get the joker every time
When will I be, lucky in love
I met a sweet talking guy from Paris,
Tennessee
He bought me french fries at the
Dairy Queen
He came on strong, before too long
He was on bended knee
Now when I hear his footsteps up
my block
I hear the tick of his biological
clock
Sorry hon', gotta run, it's been
fun, still in shock
Goodness gracious, mercy me
Somebody tell me when will I be
Lucky, lucky in love
Roll myself a seven when I throw
the dice
I've been waiting for the king of
hearts
Still I get the joker every time
When will I be, lucky in love
Goodness gracious, mercy me
Somebody tell me when will I be
Lucky, lucky in love
Roll myself a seven when I throw
the dice
I've been waiting for the king of
hearts
Still I get the joker every time
When will I be
Oh when will I be
Oh yeah, when will I be
Lucky in love. (Back

Standing in line at the grocery
Staring back at the trash magazines
Martians say earth girls are lonely
Well that's no news to me
In the parking lot I saw two cowboys
Fighting for a handicapped space
So what is a girl to do now boys
To make sense of this place
There's too much wrong in the world
tonight
Too much I can't understand
I wanna board up these windows
And turn out these lights
And lie down with an innocent man
Lie down with an innocent man
I don't need a strong man's protection
I don't want a faithless man's love
Just a little respect and affection
Would be more than enough
Cause I've been shot down by love's
aimless arrows
And I've shot a few wild ones myself
But these days the choices are narrow
And you've got to aim well
There's too much wrong in the world
tonight
Too much I can't understand
I wanna board up these windows
And turn out these lights
And lie down with an innocent man
Lie down with an innocent man
I've been holding my heart like a
lantern
Looking out for just one honest
face
All the noise out there won't matter
If I can trust in just one quiet
place
There's too much wrong in the world
tonight
Too much I can't understand
I wanna board up these windows
And turn out these lights
And lie down with an innocent man
Yeah, there's too much wrong in
the world tonight
Too much I can't understand
I wanna board up these windows
And turn out these lights
Lie down with an innocent man
Oh, lie down with an innocent man
Lie down with an innocent man. (Back

Your love was reckless baby I fell deep
Easy to hold but you were hard to
keep
You were a heartache waiting to
be
We took off flying down a dead end
street
I never knew that love could hurt
so bad
When you said good bye with a tip
of your hat
I watched you leaving across the
welcome mat
And though I know that you ain't
coming back
One solitary tear
Is all I'll cry
One solitary tear
Falling, falling, falling from my
eyes
I'll get over you
I'll get by
One solitary tear
At a time
Little things remind me that you're
gone
The mailman still brings all your
catalogs
The radio just keeps on playing
our songs
But I tell myself that I have to
be strong
One solitary tear
Is all I'll cry
One solitary tear
Falling, falling, falling from my
eyes
I'll get over you
I'll get by
One solitary tear
At a time
I'll get over you
I'll get by
One solitary tear
At a time
One solitary tear
At a time. (Back

So you're taking it on the chin
Looks like he's working late again
But you don't want to fight
You find it easier to let things
slide
So you pour a glass of wine and
read a book
It's your last chance for romance
Day by day you keep pretending that
nothing's wrong
But you're just deceiving yourself
You've been indifferent way too
long
Oh, don't you know once your heart
was filled with passion
Until you took it all for granted
And now comes as no surprise
Tonight there's trouble in paradise
So you bury yourself in work
It keeps your mind off how much
it hurts
'Cause there's no love left at home
Even when he's with you, you're
still alone
You want to reach out
But you don't know where to start
It's easier not to talk at all
Day by day you keep pretending that
nothing's wrong
But you're just deceiving yourself
You've been indifferent way too
long
Oh, don't you know once your heart
was filled with passion
Until you took it all for granted
And now comes as no surprise
Tonight there's trouble in paradise
You want to reach out
But you don't know where to start
It's easier not to talk at all
Once your heart was filled with passion
Until you took it all for granted
And now it comes as no surprise
Tonight there's trouble in paradise
Oh, there's trouble in paradise
Oh, trouble in paradise
Trouble in paradise. (Back

That's No
Way To Break a Heart (Back to Top)
You waltz into the room
Just like you'd never left
And for a moment or two
I could almost forget
You take me in your arms
And I fall again
That's no way to break a heart
You call my name I drop my guard
Why can't you play your chosen part
And stay away 'til I can make another
start
That's no way to break a heart
Weren't you supposed to need
Something I could not give
But now you're lying so close to
me
And you're taking everything
I can't hold on forever
For nothing more than this
That's no way to break a heart
You call my name I drop my guard
Why can't you play your chosen part
And stay away 'til I can make another
start
That's no way to break a heart
No don't touch me
Don't you kiss me
Don't you realize
That's no way
To say good bye
That's no way to break a heart
You call my name I drop my guard
Why can't you play your chosen part
And stay away 'til I can make another
start
That's no way to break a heart
That's no way to break a heart.

I Want To Fall
In Love (So Hard it Hurts) (Back to Top)
I was trapped in a castle tower
Locked up in chains
I waited for my prince to save me
But he never came
I woke up with my heart pounding
Convinced that I was cursed
I picked up a romance novel
And read the last page first
Ohhh ohhh woe is me
I want to fall in love so hard it
hurts
I want the kind of love that moves
the earth
I want more than I can take
'Til my poor heart starts to ache
I want to fall in love so hard it
hurts
I took a ride with a guy from Tupelo
In his Chevrolet
He said baby we're moving way too
fast
And slammed on the brakes
We got out and he lit a cigarette
We didn't say too much
He packed up his emotional baggage
And left me in the dust
Ohhh ohhh woe is me
I want to fall in love so hard it
hurts
I want the kind of love that moves
the earth
I want more than I can take
'Til my poor heart starts to ache
I want to fall in love so hard it
hurts
Ohhh ohhh woe is me
I want to fall in love so hard it
hurts
I want the kind of love that moves
the earth
I want more than I can take
'Til my poor heart starts to ache
I want to fall in love
I want to fall in love
I want to fall in love so hard it
hurts. (Back to Top)
Words
(Back
to Top)
Words, they don't mean nothing
So tell me why they hurt so much
I meant to tell you something
It was on the tip of my tongue
Words rush by so quickly
And it's too late to take them back
I tried to say I'm sorry
And that goodbye was just an act
But all my words got in the way
And all the things I meant to say
Were not the things you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
Words come back to haunt you
Yeah, they just keep hanging around
I still can hear the echo
I still can hear their angry sound
'Cause all my words got in the way
And all the things I meant to say
Were not the things you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
Words can say I love you
Oh, words can break a heart
I should have stopped you leaving
And told the truth right from the
start
But all my words got in the way
And all the things I meant to say
Were not the things you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word.

Tenderly
(Back
to Top)
The air is cooling and the sun's
going down
The day's been grueling in this
dusty old town
My body's aching for what you do
to me
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
The words are easy when the language
is love
You know exactly what I'm thinking
of
My heart is hungry for what you
do to me
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
I've had lovers go up in flames
Been with others who've had no names
God I've waited patiently
For someone who really touches me
I've had lovers go up in flames
Been with others who've had no names
God I've waited patiently
For someone who really touches me
I feel your fingers and their touch
is like fire
Sensations linger then they turn
to desire
My body's aching for what you do
to me
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly. (Back

Put Your
Heart Into It (Back to Top)
You don't need to talk French
To make me giddy
You don't need to fly me off to
some foreign city
You don't need pretty words just
to turn my head
And you don't need to be a casanova
in bed
If you're gonna love me
Why don't you just do it
Come on baby,
Put your heart into it
You don't need to pop out of a birthday
cake
You don't need to bring me roses
on rollerskates
Write my name in big letters across
the sky
No you don't need to run for president
to catch my eye
If you're going to love me
Why don't you just do it
Come on baby,
Put your heart into it
Well you can lead a horse to water
But you can't make 'em drink
Send a boy to college
But you can't make him think
We'll I've been feeling kind of
lonely
Like a ship out on the ocean
I need to see a little old-fashioned
emotion
Well you got my attention, baby
What's on your mind
You can leave all that fancy footwork
behind
Well I can see you're cute and I
know you're witty
But let's get down to the real nitty
gritty
If you're going to love me
Why don't you just do it
Come on baby,
Put your heart into it
Yeah, if you're gonna love me
Why don't you just do it
Come on baby
Put your heart into it.

You Keep
On Lovin' Me (Back to Top)
I don't know how you do it
I swear you act just like there's
nothing to it
And you do it so naturally
And I don't know how you take it
Sometimes I'm not so sure we're
gonna make it
But you keep your faith in me
Oh there are nights we lose the touch
And days that come and go so fast
And times that it takes all we got
To try and make the feeling last
But you keep on lovin' me
You keep on lovin' me
And I know I've hurt you sometimes
Thoughtlessly I call you names and
criticize
But you take it all in stride
Oh yeah, still you come around
Though I know there've been times
I've let you down
But here you stand by my side
Oh there are nights we lose the touch
And days that come and go so fast
And times that it takes all we got
To try and make the feeling last
But you keep on lovin' me
You keep on lovin' me
Oh there are nights we lose the
touch
And days that come and go so fast
And times that it takes all we got
To try and make the feeling last
But you keep on lovin' me
You keep on lovin' me
You keep on lovin' me
You keep on lovin' me
You keep on lovin' me. (Back

Never
Been Kissed (Back to Top)
If I show up ten minutes early baby
You can bet that you'll be running
behind
But when in comes to loving me now
baby
I have to say you are right on time
I've never been kissed, never been
kissed
Like this no, no, no
I've never been touched, never been
touched
Baby till I felt your touch
Your love's goin' to my head so
fast
Just like the bubbles in a champagne
glass
Now I know what I've been missing
I've never been kissed like this,
ooh like this
You're a fool for wild eyed poetry
baby
I only like the kind that rhymes
And you a little rough around the
edges now baby
But your kind of edges suite me
fine
This is more than temporary madness
baby
This is more than hearts just doing
time
If love weren't so serious we could
laugh about it baby
Yeah we could laugh until we cried.

Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't
take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because
you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald
green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
There's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name,
Jolene
And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means
to me, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't
take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because
you can
You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't
take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though
you can
Jolene, Jolene. (Back

Followin'
A Feelin' (Back to Top)
I want to feel that white hot fire
Burnin' in my chest
I need long cool wet kisses
Who'd want to settle for less
I don't know where it's gonna come
from
But there's gotta be more than this
I don't know what path I'll find
it on
The only thing I'm sure of is
I'm gonna keep followin' a feelin'
I wanna take that crazy fall
I'm going down each road that calls
me
Join the dance, take the chance,
risk it all
I've had what I've had
Been there, done that, now I want
more
I'm gonna keep followin' a feelin'
Til I find what I'm looking for
Yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose yourself
Before you find the truth
Sometimes you gotta let go of your
dreams
Before they come back to you
There's a healin' in forgiveness
Real power in a touch
Sometimes you gotta hit rock bottom
Before you know which way is up
I'm gonna keep followin' a feelin'
I wanna take that crazy fall
I'm going down each road that calls
me
Join the dance, take the chance,
risk it all
I've had what I've had
Been there done that now I want
more
I'm gonna keep followin' a feelin'
Til I find what I'm looking for
Yesterday's behind me
And when tomorrow finds me
I'm gonna be followin' a feelin'
I'm gonna take that crazy fall
I'm going down each road that calls
me
Join the dance take the chance risk
it all
I've had what I've had
Been there done that now I want
more
I'm gonna keep followin' a feelin'
Til I find what I'm looking for
I'm gonna take that crazy fall
I'm going down each road that calls
me
Join the dance take the chance risk
it all
I've had what I've had
Been there done that now I want
more
I'm gonna keep followin' a feelin'
Till I find what I'm looking for
Followin' a feelin'
Gonna take that crazy fall
Yeah
Followin' a feelin'
Terrified
What I'm looking for
Followin' a feelin'. (Back
