Альбом Reba McEntire

Then you call me long distance from Memphis
When they said it was you on the line
I said don't come tomorrow
Cause I won't be here
You'd only be wasting your time

I've been your long distance lover
For far too long
But I'm not here to tell you
Who's right or who's wrong
But I know I once loved you
But somehow it seems
That it's all a part of a dream

So don't call me again in the morning
Cause I won't be changing my mind
And the phone will be ringing in my empty room
I ain't leaving nothing behind

I've been your long distance lover
For far too long
The nights are so lonely
Can't keep holding on
And the miles are like mountains
That hide you from me
And it's all a part of a dream

I've been your long distance lover
For far too long
Can't hold on to feelings
When you're so long gone
It all keeps on a changing
And now it just means
That it's all a part of a dream

If only I'd have thought to send you roses
For no reason just to send you roses
And if only I thought to say more often I love you
But I just assumed you knew

Chorus:
And if only I'd have tried a little harder
If only we'd have talked a little more
If only I'd have held you closer
Then maybe I'd be holding you tonight
If only you, if only I
The saddest words are not goodbye
They're if only

If only we hadn't just pretended there was nothing wrong
It might not have ended
If only we'd have given more attention
To the small things
We might have it all today

Repeat Chorus

Instead of silence
There'd been angry words
If we had only listened
We just might have held our hearts

Repeat Chorus

He said please come to Boston for the springtime
I'm stayin' here with some friends
And they've got lots of room
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
By a cafe where I hope to be workin' soon
Please come to Boston
I said no, boy would you come home to me

I said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down
Boston ain't your kind of town
There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

He said please come to Denver with the snowfall
We'll move up into the mountains so far we can't be found
And throw I love you echos down the canyon
And then lie awake at night until they come back around
Please come to Denver
I just said no, boy won't you come home to me

I said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down
Denver ain't your kind of town
There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

Now that drifter's word goes round and round
And I doubt if it's ever gonna stop
But of all the dreams he's lost or found
And all that I ain't got
He's still needs to lean to
Somebody he can sing to

He said please come to L.A. to live forever
A California life alone is just too hard to build
I live in a house that looks out over the ocean
And there's some stars that fell from the sky
Livin' up on the hill
Please come to L.A.
I just said no, boy won't you come home to me

And I said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down
L.A. can't be your kind of town
There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee
Tennessee

Turn out the light
Turn yourself over to me
Turn off the world
Turn my feelings free

Just enjoy the pleasure
For the pleasure pleases me
You've been turning me on all night long
Now it's my turn

You have reached the woman in me
Through the man in you
Let me be that woman
Before the lovin's through

You just turn yourself over to me
While I turn my feelings free
You've been turning me on all night long
Now it's my turn

All night long
I've been driven to your touch
Haven't had time to give
I've been taking so much

I know you want to hold me
But darling you've done enough
You've been turning me on all night long
Now it's my turn

Repeat Verses #3 and #4

Repeat Verse #4

So many times I said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Somethin' in my heart always knew
I'd be lying there beside him

On My Own, On my Own, On my own

(Linda Davis)
So many promises ever should be spoken
Now you know what loving him costs
Now youre even taking divorce
And you were'nt even married...

On My Own(Once again)
I'm one more time by
Myself

(Reba)
No one said it would be easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believe in love now
here i stand
You wonder why

I'm on my own
Why did it end this way
On My own
This wasnt how it was supposed to be
On my Own
I wish that we could do it all again

So Many times I know i could have told you
That losing him would cut like a knife
He walked out and there went your life
I dont want to live without him

On My Own
This wasn't how it was supposed to end
On my Own
I wish that we could do it all again
On My Own
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone (by myself)
On My Own
(Tricia YearWood) You've got to find out where you belong again
On My Own
(Martina McBride) You've got to learn to be strong again
On My Own
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone (All) By myself

You've got to find out where you belong again
You're heart is saying it's that time again
(all) And I know You're gonna shine again

Your letter found me here in Denver
I've changed though since I've been here
I've learned there's more to life
Than your promises

There's someone here
In Colorado
Who won't forget tomorrow
So you really better love me after this

On a bus somewhere in Kansas
Heading home to take my chances
Lord I hope this time you mean
The things you say

I won't say this is the last time
And let you play with my mind
But you really better love me after this

Chorus:
Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
Doesn't really mean that much to you
But you really better love me

As the bus pulls in the station
I can see you waiting
And I believe we both forget
What we can't forgive

Now we're holding to each other
I can feel my heart recover
And I know you'll gonna love me after this

Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
I guess we really mean that much to you
Oh you're really gonna love you
Oh you're really gonna love me
Oh you're really gonna love me

I can’t find the letters, you wrote to me in school
And that shoebox full of photographs, got lost in my last move
I gave away that old twin bed, where you and I first laid
But after all this time, I’ve still got the love we made

That old beat-up car, we dated in, has finally turned to rust
And the first rose that you gave me, has finally turned to dust
But all those tender nights we shared, are never gonna fade
Cos after all this time, I’ve still got the love we made

I re-feel every feeling, we felt when we touched
Cos even though we fell apart, I kept a part of us

I’ve held on to every time, we held each other tight
And promised, that no matter what, we’d never say goodbye
I don’t have a souvenir, although I meant to save
But right here in my heart, I’ve still got the love we made
Right here in my heart, I’ve still got the love we made.

Some come for the music
Some for romance
You gotta be with the boy that brought you to the dance
Then across the room comes a casual glance
And you be making some dime even half the chance

Now some like to look
And some like to touch
All the things that they can't have
Way too much
Some like to get real close to the flame
once you feel the heat
You know they're never the same

Why do we want
What we know we can't have
Why don't we want
What's in the palm of our hands
Why we always looking
At what's just out of our grasp
Why do we want
What we know we can't have

Well Susie was out driving her new corvette
She hadn't made that second payment yet
She rear ended a Semi
But not by choice
She was a rubbernecking a new Rolls Royce

Repeat Chorus x2

I've got a story to tell, would you mind listening.
I can always count on
you we're such good friends.
And I need to talk about my situation and
you're the only one who'll understand.
Now someone's got designs on my baby.
She's making her intentions very plain.

We both know this ole gal
that I'm talking about, but I don't
want to mention any names.
Well she's asked him to slow dance way too often.
She's made suggestions I don't
like at all. I'm trying to let her know that
I'm wise to her game, but I
don't wanna mention any names.

Well I can understand why she'd want him.
Oh you've even said yourself he's quite a prize.
She's about a good of friend as you are.
Come to think about it she's just about your size.
If she don't back off there's gonna be some trouble.
I'm prepared to make that very plain.
I sure hope I've said enough, and just between the two of us.

Repeat Chorus

Oh on a park bench in the middle of July
We sat and watched the children play
If it was the heat or the noise
He didn't have too much to say

Then with a move of his eyes
A move that could have made the wind stand still
He took my hand in his and said the words
That I never will forget

He said have you ever cheated on me
Has there been someone else
Is there someone you love more than me
Someone you can't forget
If his memory is opened again
Let it be chased away by time
He said have you ever cheated on me
I said only in my mind

How can I tell him
The time we spent together
Was time between friends
There's just somethings I can talk about with you
That I can't just talk with him
How can I tell you
That somewhere in the cards it was meant for us to be
Why am I blushing in front of you now
Is it you or the heat

He said have you ever cheated on me
Has there been someone else
Is there someone you love more than me
Someone you can't forget
If his memory is opened again
Let it be chased away by time
He said have you ever cheated on me
I said only in my mind

Darling have you ever cheated on me
And I said only in my mind
