Lately I've been living with my heart on the mend
Last thing I wanted was to try love again
But then you backed me up against the wall
Next thing I knew, I was takin' the fall
Chorus
I wasn't lookin' to jump into love
But I had no choice when your push came to shove
I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I fell for you
Tell me what else could I do
Boy when I saw you I looked the other way
He could be trouble's what I heard myself say
When my resistence hit an all time low
Guess your persistence just wouldn't let me go
Chorus
My momma told me girl it's guaranteed
Love hits you first when it's the last thing you need
Somebody tell me this is one of my dreams
No way that boy can be as good as he seems
Chorus
Tell me what else could I do

All I have are questions why
And the love you left with your goodbye
I spend my lonely nights
Telling stars in the night about you and I
I thought if I wished hard enough
I could've found my way back to your arms
I guess the love written ever so deep in my heart
Was never written in the stars
I've tried counting every one
Just passing the time until the dawn
But some stars are bound to fall
I see them drop from the sky
Through the tears in my eyes
Here we are so far apart
Like the miles between the moon and Mars
I guess the love written ever so deep in my heart
Was never written in the stars
I wonder if it's true
That only fools believe in destiny
I know I believed in you
And now Fate has made a fool of me
I thought if I wished hard enough
I could've found my way back to your arms
I guess the love written ever so deep in my heart
Was never written in the stars

(Kostas)
I will always remember the first time that we met
And the first time that I kissed your lips is a thing I won't forget
The special way you held me is the way you hold me still
And I knew right then that you loved me and I know you always will
Chorus
Ain't that love
Ain't that how it's supposed to be
When two hearts come together as one
Just like you and me
Ain't that love
Shining in your eyes
Heaven sent from up above
Ain't that love
My grandma and my grandpa, my mama and my dad
Didn't have a lot of things but love is what they had
Their love kept them together through the many years
Though life was hard they shared it all through the laughter and the tears
Chorus
Baby you're the sunshine that brightens up my day
And I will always stand by you darlin' come what may
And I will always love you to have and hold
And I'll keep my every promises to you with this band of gold
Chorus
Heaven sent from up above
Ain't that love
. . .

You try and you try
But each day goes by
And each night still finds you
Thinking of the love we knew
You smile and pretend
That we'll just be friends
But each night still finds you
In your loneliness
Chorus
In your loneliness
Do you miss my kiss
Need my arms to hold you tight
From your easy chair
No one seems to care
Not so easy there tonight
So I live and I learn
That bridges I burn
Just come back to haunt me
And I close my eyes and see
That the pain that you feel
We both share until
Your own heart sets you free
In your loneliness
Chorus
So I live and I learn
That bridges I burn
Just come back to haunt me
In your loneliness

(Charles John Quatro - Pete Wasner)
Mama knows the highway by the songs
When she hears a good one she always sings along
She don't ever worry 'bout what's gone
She says,"Good country music will never steer you wrong"
She talks to the truckers with her lights
Maybe a little bit more on Saturday night
She knows a good road to paradise
And that's just enough to keep the highway bright
Chorus
Well, mama knows the highway now by heart
She can see the rain before it starts
Looking clear through
A windshield full of stars
Mama knows the highway now by heart
She can tell Wyoming by the wind
She can tell another trucker by the rig that he's in
She knows how to watch the river bend
She knows where the real South begins
Chorus
She can gauge a cafe by looking at the signs
Little old places always share the grand design
Chorus

(Harley Allen)
When memories do dances
Around you in the dark
You'll fear of new romances
When we part
But you got to take your chances
And let a new love start
And I just want to tell you
Heart to heart
Chorus
When love arrives
When love arrives
Don't be afraid to let that love inside
When love arrives
Now when it's finally over
The hardest part of all
Is knowing this can happen
When you fall
So when you meet another
I hope that you'll recall
I want you to be happy after all
Chorus

(Lefty Frizzell - Sanger D. Shafer - A.L.Owens)
Darlin' I've got all our friends believin'
That I'm glad to have you out of my sight
I laugh all day long and say I'm glad you're gone
But I do my crying at night
Chorus
I do my cryin' at night
To keep all my heartaches out of sight
It only takes the moon to make me change my tune
I do my cryin' at night
Yes, you're the missing star in my blue heaven
That's why the darkness always makes me cry
There's a hole in my sky and a big tear in my eye
I do my cryin' at night
Chorus
I do my cryin' at night
. . .

Tonight the rain that's falling
Only adds to my heartache
It runs quietly down my window
Like the tears upon my face
And each time the lightning flashes
And I hear the thunder roar
I'm reminded of the closing of the door
I'm not over you
The storm still rages
The waves of pain remind me
That we're through
I'm slowly drowning
In a sea of endless heartbreak
I'm going under
'Cause I'm not over you
I keep holding to your memory
But my hopes are sinking fast
The chance that you'll come back to me
Now fades into the past
Can I find a way to let you go
Somewhere down deep inside
By reaching for the healing hands of time
I'm not over you
The storm still rages
The waves of pain remind me
That we're through
I'm slowly drowning
In a sea of endless heartbreak
I'm going under
'Cause I'm not over you
. . .

(Troy Seals - Graham Lyle)
I met someone I need to talk about
Never been so certain, with so many doubts
My heart's afraid to be alone with him
In late night hours, when the lights are dim
Chorus
If you were me
Would you take that kind of chance
Step into his arms and dance
Into the night
If you were me
Would you let your feelings go
Or hold him back and never know
If you were me
I've always played it safe with this heart of mine
Same old kind of romance time after time
And now he's calling from the wilder side
Last night I felt like if I'd only tried
Chorus
Last night I felt like if I'd only tried
I might be spendin' my life by his side
Chorus
