A Bad Goodbye
I've been bound to leave you We've known that for awhile I'm sure it's something I can't do If I can't leave you with a smile I don't know how far I'll have to go Till I'm sure those eyes won't cry And in my mind I've left enough to know that I can't Leave you with a bad goodbye Chorus: Goodbye, easier said than done Goodbye, there's no good when you're the one Whose goodbye you swore would never come And in my goodbye you're finding none I'm still bound to leave you I surely don't know how My heart won't let me put you through What my mind said should happen now I don't know where we'll go from here There may be no way to fly And the cloud I'm in just makes it all too clear That I can't leave you with a bad goodbye Repeat Chorus How can we be so far between Where we are and one more try And any way I look, I've only seen that I can't Leave you With a bad goodbye Desperado
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 You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet But it seems to me some fine things Have been laid upon your table But you only want the ones that you can't get Desperado Oh, you ain't gettin' no younger Your pain and your hunger, they're 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 The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine It's hard to tell the nighttime 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 Better let somebody love you Before it's too late A Good Run of Bad Luck
A high roller even when the chips are down To win her over, I'd see the tables turn around She's ten the hard way, I can feel it in my bones She'll be makin' my day and not another night alone It's time for a windfall and not a single minute too soon I've been too long overdue, now I'm gonna shoot the moon Chorus: I'd bet it all on a good run of bad luck Seven come eleven and she could be mine Luck be a lady, and I'm gonna find love [From: http://www.elyrics.net ] Comin' on the bottom line I've been to the tables, and I've lost it all before I'm willin' and able, always comin' back for more Squeezin' out a thin dime till there's no one hanging on my arm I've gambled on a third time, a fool will tell you it's a charm If I'm betting on a loser, I'm gonna have a devil to pay But it's the only game I know to play, it doesn't matter anyway |
When I Said I Do
These times are troubled and these times are good And they're always gonna be They rise and they fall We take 'em all the way that we should Together you and me Forsaking them all Deep in the night and by the light of day It always looks the same True love always does And here by your side, or a million miles away Nothin's ever gonna change the way that I feel The way it is Is the way that it was When I said I do I meant that I will 'til the end of all time Be faithful and true Devoted to you That's what I had in mind When I said I do Well this old world keeps changin', and the world stays the same For all who came before And it goes hand and hand Only you and I can undo all that we became That makes us so much more Than a woman and a man And after everything that comes and goes around Has only passed us by Here alone in our dreams I know there's a lonely heart In every lost and found But forever you and I will be the ones Who found out what forever means When I said I do I meant that I will 'til the end of all time Be faithful and true Devoted to you That's what I had in mind When I said I do Truer than true You know that I'll always be there For you.. That's what I had in mind... That's what I had in mind... When I said I do Something that We Do
I remember well the day we wed I can see that picture in my head I still believe the words we said Forever will ring true Love is certain, love is kind Love is yours and love is mine But it isn't something that we find It's something that we do It's holding tight, lettin' go It's flying high and laying low Let your strongest feelings show And your weakness, too It's a little and a lot to ask An endless and a welcome task Love isn't something that we have It's something that we do We help to make each other all that we can be Though we can find our strength and inspiration independently The way we work together is what sets our love apart So closely that we can't tell where I end and where you start It gives me heart remembering how We started with a simple vow There's so much to look back on now Still it feels brand-new We're on a road that has no end And each day we begin again Love's not just something that we're in It's something that we do We help to make each other all that we can be We can find our strength and inspiration independently The way we work together is what sets our love apart So closely that we can't tell where I end and where you start Love is wide, love is long Love is deep and love is stong Love is why I love this song And I hope you love it too I remember well the day we wed I can see that picture in my head Love isn't just those words we said It's something that we do There's no request too big or small We give ourselves, we give our all Love isn't someplace that we fall It's something that we do |
