Текст песни:

The light shines down the valley
The wind blows up the alley
Oh how I wish I was lyin′ in the arms of Mary

She took the pains of boyhood
And turned them into feel good
Oh how I wish I was lyin′ in the arms of Mary

CHORUS
Mary was the girl who taught me all I had to know
She out me right on my first mistake

Summer wasn′t gone
when I learned all she had to give
She really gave all a boy could take

So now when I get lonely
Still lookin for my one and only
That′s when I wish was lyin′ in
The Arms of Mary

(repeat chorus)

Текст песни:

Friday night and the moon is high
I′m wide-awake just watchin′ you sleep
And I promise you you′re gonna have
More than just the things that you need
We ain′t got much now, We′re just startin′ out
But I know somehow paradise is comin′

Chorus:
Someday baby, You and I are gonna be the ones
Good luck′s gonna shine
Someday baby you and I are gonna be the ones
So hold on
We′re headed for a better life

Oh now there′s a place for you and me
Where we can dream as big as the sky
I know it′s hard to see it now
But baby someday we′re gonna fly
This road we′re on, you know it might be long
But my faith is strong
It′s all that really matters

(REPEAT CHORUS)

So hold on, hold on
C′mon baby, hold on

Yeah, we′re gonna have it all
And ooh

(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)

Oh, a better life
Hey we′re gonna leave this all behind us baby, wait and see
We′re headed for a better life, you and me
We′re gonna break the chains that bind and, finally we′ll be free
We′re gonna be the ones that have it all, you and me
Just hold on tight now baby

Текст песни:

Hello blue stranger, sittin′ there all alone
With your glass of sorrow, you seem so far from home
Maybe you will let me, buy a round or two
I′m a blue stranger too

Well, hello blue stranger, I haven′t seen your around
But I know every reason, for leavin′ town
We might know each other, before the night is through
I′m a blue stranger too

And strangers fall in love, all the time
All lovers were strangers once
Just like us, a little unsure, chattin′ out hi′s

Well, hello blue stranger, will you take a chance
Well I might be mistaken, but I see meaning in your glance
Maybe this could be the start of something new
I′m a blue stranger too

(Keith′s guitar solo)

And strangers fall in love, everyday
All lovers were strangers once
Just like us, a little unsure of our little ways

Well, hello blue stranger, sittin′ there all alone
With your glass of sorrow, you seem so far from home
Maybe you will let me, buy you a round or two
I′m a blue stranger too

Hello blue stranger, Hello blue stranger
Hello blue stranger.

Текст песни:

I can hear the neighbors
They′re arguin′ again
And there hasn′t been peace on our street
Since who knows when
I don′t mean to listen in
But the shoutin′ is so loud
I turn up the radio to drown it out
And silently I say a little prayer

But for the grace of God go I
I must′ve been born a lucky guy
Heaven only knows how I′ve been blessed
With the gift of you love
And I look around and all I see
Is your happiness embracing me
Oh Lord I′d be lost
But for the grace of God

I can see that old man
He′s walking past our door
And I′ve been told that he′s rich
But he seems so poor
′Cause no one comes to call on him
And his phone it never rings
He wanders through his empty home
Surrounnded by his things
And silently I say a little prayer, yes I do

But for the grace of God go I
I must′ve been born a lucky guy
Heaven only knows how I′ve been blessed
With the gift of you love
And I look around and all I see
Is your happiness embracing me
Oh Lord I′d be lost
But for the grace of God

I look around and all I see
Is your happiness embracing me
Oh Lord I′d be lost
But for the grace of God
Oh Lord I′d be lost

Oh Lord I′d be lost
But for the grace of God
Oh Lord I′d be lost
But for the grace of God

Текст песни:

Soon the pines will be falling everywhere
As the village children fight each other for their share
And the six-o-nine goes roaring past the creek
As Deacon Lee prepares his sermon for next week

I saw Grandma yesterday down at the store
Well she′s really doing fine for eighty-four
And she asked me if sometime I could fix her barn
The poor old girl she needs a hand to run that farm

Chorus:
And it′s good old country comfort in my bones
It′s the sweetest sound these ears have ever known
It′s just an old-fashioned feeling fully-grown
Country comfort and a truck that′s goin′ back home
Oh it′s goin′ back home

Down at the well they′ve got a new machine
The foreman says it′ll cut manpower by fifteen
"Hey but that ain′t natural" old Clay would say
You see he′s a horse-drawn man until his dying day

(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)

Country comfort and a truck that′s goin′ back home
Whoa, it′s goin′ back home
Hey take me back home
And a truck, and a truck that′s goin′ back home
Any truck

Текст песни:

I′m changing lands
I′m talking on the phone
I′m drivin′way too fast
And the interstate′s jammed with
Gunners like me afraid of coming in last
But somewhere in the race we run
We′re coming undone

Days go by
I can feel ′em flying
Like a hand out the window in the wind as the cars go by
It′s all we′ve been given
So you better start livin′ right now
′Cause days go by

Out on the roof just the other night
I watched the world flash by
Headlights, taillights running through a river of neon signs
But somewhere in the rush I felt
We′re losing ourselves

Days go by
I can feel ′em flying
Like a hand out the window in the wind as the cars go by
It′s all we′ve been given
So you better start livin′ right now
′Cause days go by

We think about tomorrow then it slips away
We talk about forever but we′ve only got today

And the days go by
I can feel ′em flying
Like a band out the window in the wind as the cars go by
It′s all we′ve been given
So you better start livin′ right now
′Cause days go by

These days go by
So take ′em by the hand
They′re yours and mind
Take ′em by the hand
And live your life
Take ′em by the hand
Don′t let ′em all fly by
Come on, come on now
Don′t you know the days go by

Текст песни:

It′s killin′ me to write the word "goodbye"
I′ve wadded up and tossed a thousand tries
We both know the reason
There ain′t nothing to explain
But I know that my leavin′
Will spare us both the pain

[Chorus]
Desiree I can′t hold you any longer
Desiree you love his money more than me
And the taxi′s at the gate
I guess all that′s left to say
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page
"I love you Desiree"

It′d be easier to leave if I were mad
But it′s hard to lose the best you′ll ever have
And to write this note to you
Was the hardest thing to do
But not as hard as bein′ a poor boy
Who can′t afford a girl like you

[Repeat Chorus]

God, I love you Desiree
But I just can′t take it anymore
I won′t be around for your goodbye
I won′t be around for your goodbye
You love his money more than me
I won′t be around for your goodbye
You love his money more than me
I won′t be around for your goodbye
Oh you love his money, you love it more than me
I was just a fool who couldn′t see
That you love his money, you love it more than me

Текст песни:

I′ve seen it happen too many times
And just where it starts I don′t know
You′re travelling steady but you don′t see the signs
That tell you there′s a fork in the road
And you don′t think it′s right but you′re both turnin′ away
And the ending is always the same
When suddenly parallel lives drift apart
And there′s no one accepting the blame
But girl you and I we got too much too lose
By one of us saying goodbye
And I see it clearly we′re both meant to be
But you got that look in your eyes

CHORUS:
Don′t go, don′t go
Cause you might regret everything
When you wake up on your own
Oh no, I′m not lettin′ go
And I never will surrender what we got together

Layin′ beside you I can′t sleep at all
Wonderin′ what your thinkin′ inside
Will I wake up and find that
You′ve made up your mind to
Go it alone for awhile
And don′t say it′s present when it′s all in the past
You gotta stop lookin′ behind
And take everything as it comes for today is
The first day of the rest of your life

REPEAT CHORUS

Don′t go, oh never say goodbye, Don′t go
Oh no, you got that look in your eyes
I′ve seen it before, you′re gonna walk out that door

REPEAT CHORUS 2x

Текст песни:

Don′t shut me out maybe baby
We should talk about it
′Cause you′ve got your doubts but maybe, baby
They might be unfounded

Have a little faith you′ll make it through
I′d never hesitate to talk to you
If you tell me just what′s weighing on your mind
Maybe it could help you sleep tonight
So don′t shut me out

Don′t be so proud don′t ya know that
Before a fall it leaves ya
And it′ll take you down baby that ain′t
Where I wanna see ya

The sun′ll rise tomorrow come what may
And you′ll feel better than you do today
And in time you′ll cry no more
I know ′cause my heart′s been there before

And here I am when you need someone
My shoulder′s yours to cry upon
And everybody now and then
Needs and understanding friend around
So don′t shut me out

Don′t shut me out maybe baby
We should talk about it
′Cause you′ve got your doubts but maybe, baby
They might be unfounded
Listen to your heart and clear your mind
And you will find the answer every time
Every road you travel on will lead
To where it is your heart′s supposed to be

And here I am when you need someone
My shoulder is yours to cry upon
And everybody now and then
Needs an understandin′ friend around
So don′t shut me out, don′t shut me out, don′t shut me out
