"What Made You Say That"
Maybe tonight I'm gonna tell him how I feel
Maybe I'll leave well enough alone
Maybe, just maybe, he'll want to be my baby
What if he's got plans of his own
I'm waiting for the perfect moment
Looking for the perfect phrase
The one I finally choose is simply "I Love You"
As the words came out I heard a voice inside me say
What made you say that
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes
What made you say that
Have you been listening to your heart
It's too late now, you don't want to take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that
I look up to see his reaction
And a smile slowly spread across his face
He said, "What took you so long
That's what I've been waiting on
I thought you'd take forever and a day"
What made you say that
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes
What made you say that
Have you been listening to your heart
It's too late now, I won't let you take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that
What made you say that
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes
What made you say that
Have you been listening to your heart
It's too late now, I won't let you take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes
What made you say that
Have you been listening to your heart
What made you say that
What made you say that
What made you say that....
"You Lay A Whole Lot Of Love On Me"
I can feel your body tugging gently on my mind
Stirring up a feeling I thought I'd never find
Ever since I met you, babe, I've been living in a dream
You lay a whole lot of love on me
A whole lot of love on me
I get warm all over when you get close to me
Then I start to tremble from my head down to my feet
I become your piece of clay to do with what you please
You lay a whole lot of love on me
A whole lot of love on me
You lay a whole lot of love on me
A love I thought could never be
Let the whole world fall apart, you're all I'll ever need
You lay a whole lot of love on me
A whole lot of love on me
You lay a whole lot of love on me
A whole lot of love on me
"Dance With The One That Brought You"
Well he shines like a penny in a little kids hand
When he's out on a Saturday night
He's a real go-getter and the best two-stepper you'll see
But when I'm sittin' alone at a table for two
'Cause he's already out on the floor
I think about somethin' that my mama used to say to me
You got to dance with the one that brought you
Stay with the one that wants you
The one who's gonna love you when all of the others go home
Don't let the green grass fool ya
Don't let the moon get to ya
Dance with the one that brought you and you can't go wrong
He's got his old best buddies and his new best friends
And the girls all give him the eye
He's a good time Charlie and the life of the party tonight
But when I think about another well I don't think twice
'Cause there'll never be another like him
I know he really loves me and I think maybe mama was right
You got to dance with the one that brought you
Stay with the one that wants you
The one who's gonna love you when all of the others go home
Don't let the green grass fool ya
Don't let the moon get to ya
Dance with the one that brought you and you can't go wrong
You got to dance with the one that brought you and you can't go wrong
"Still Under The Weather"
My first lesson in losing a love was you
Learning to live with your memory was lesson number two
And I can't lie
Baby I still cry sometimes
But I've come a long way
Towards gettin' you out of my mind
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
I still miss the shelter
Of your loving arms
But what I thought would kill me
Has just made me strong
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
Sometimes your memory still gets the best of me
But that lonely ache in my heart
Ain't as bad as it used to be
And sometimes the way that I'm feelin'
Inside doesn't show
But I know
I'll get over you, I've just got a long way to go
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
I still miss the shelter
Of your loving arms
But what I thought would kill me
Has just made me strong
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
"God Ain't Gonna Getcha For That"
Hey you, sittin' in the corner
Can't ya hear the jukebox playin'
Everybody's up doing the two-step
And you're not even tappin' your toe
Won't you let a lady buy you a cold brew
Loosen you up a little more than you dare to
Maybe take a ride in my Cadillac
God ain't gonna getcha for that
God ain't gonna getcha for that
He's much to busy with the guys in the black hats
There's nothin' wrong with a man and a woman flirtin' with a honky-tonk moon
God ain't gonna pay no attention
If we're just makin' use of his invention
Come on, baby don't hold back
God ain't gonna getcha for that
I can tell you're the quiet type
Are you new in town or just a little bit shy
Didn't you ever catch me lookin'?
I've been eyeing you all night
Won't you let a lady buy you a cold brew
Lossen you up a little more than you dare to
Maybe take a ride in my Cadillac
God ain't gonna getcha for that
God ain't gonna getcha for that
He's much to busy with the guys in the black hats
There's nothin' wrong with a man and a woman flirtin' with a honky-tonk moon
No...God ain't gonna pay no attention
If we're just makin' use of his invention
Come on, baby don't hold back
God ain't gonna getcha for that
God ain't gonna getcha for that
He's much to busy with the guys in the black hats
There's nothin' wrong with a man and a woman flirtin' with a honky-tonk moon
No...God ain't gonna pay no attention
If we're just makin' use of his invention
Come on, baby don't hold back
God ain't gonna getcha for that
No...God ain't gonna getcha for that
God ain't gonna getcha for that
"Got A Hold On Me"
You got a hold on me
You're standing over me
Sometimes I hardly breath at all
I need a little room
I need a lot of moon
I got to find it soon or I'll fall
Into the emptiness
Into the dark abyss
Too deep to climb the walls
Some times I want to flee
But that could never be
You go a hold on me
You got a hold on me
And I'm dancing to your song
You go a hold on me
And it's my heart you're holding on
You got the sweetest smile
You got a certain style
And I can never get enough
Of the way you move
And the way we groove
When it's feeling right to the touch
Then you turn around
And you stomp me down
And you want to call it love
You know it makes me bleed
But I could never leave
You got a hold on me
You got a hold on me
And I'm dancing to your song
You go a hold on me
And it's my heart you're holding on
You got a hold on me
I keep on dancing to your song
You got a hold on me
And it's my heart you're holding on
"There Goes The Neighborhood"
The house next door just came up for sale
She's going home to mama - she says he can go to hell
The couple down the block is splitting up I hear
And they're the third ones on our street this year
It is just another day in Anytown U.S.A.
Somebody's hurt, somebody's blue
And somebody moves away
What little they do to make it work
Don't seem to do much good
When loves moves out...there goes the neighborhood
First they take off their wedding bands
They call it quits and call the moving vans
He takes his and she takes hers
And what's left over is left on the curb
It is just another day in Anytown U.S.A.
Somebody's hurt, somebody's blue
And somebody moves away
What little they do to make it work
Don't seem to do much good
When loves moves out...there goes the neighborhood
It is just another day in Anytown U.S.A.
Somebody's hurt, somebody's blue
And somebody moves away
What little they do to make it work
Don't seem to do much good
When loves moves out...there goes the neighborhood
When loves moves out...there goes the neighorhood
"Forget Me"
Don't go around talkin' to your friends about me
Bury the past, just let it rest in peace
Leave well enough alone
Treat me like someone you've never known
Forget me
Like you forgot to come home at night
Forget me
Like you forgotten to hold me tight
(Well) now you're sorry, now you cry
But don't you wipe those tears
'Til your memories run dry
Please forget me
Don't let the lonely days remind you of anything
Oh baby try to erase the fact we had everything
No you can't come back this time
So let me slip right out of your mind
Forget me
Like you forgot to come home at night
Forget me
Like you forgotten to hold me tight
(Well) now you're sorry, now you cry
But don't you wipe those tears
'Til your memories run dry
Please forget me
'Cause I forgot to forgive and forget
So just pretend we never met
Forget me
Like you forgot to come home at night
Forget me
Like you forgotten to hold me tight
(Well) now you're sorry, now you cry
But don't you wipe those tears
'Til your memories run dry
Please forget me
Baby, please forget me
Forget me
"When He Leaves You"
I come here as a friend
Though I don't really know you
I know you're in love with him
And he's made your world brand new
I know you think he loves you
And he may believe it too
Pour some coffee and I'll tell you
What you'll soon be going through
When he leaves you
It's gonna more than break your heart
When he leaves you
It's gonna tear your world apart
And you're gonna cry a million teardrops
One for every shattered dream
When he leaves you
And comes back home to me
I've known him all these years
Honey this time's not the first time
I've paid for loving him with tears
And when it's over he'll be mine
I can see that I've upset you
Guess I'm a fool to try and to help
When it comes to hearts and heartache
You go to find out for yourself
When he leaves you
It's gonna more than break your heart
When he leaves you
It's gonna tear your world apart
And you're gonna cry a million teardrops
One for every shattered dream
When he leaves you
And comes back home to me
When he leaves you
And comes back to me
"Crime Of The Century"
I was into bein' out on my own
I could take love or leave it alone
That's how you get when you're hurt to the bone
One too many times
I had this heart of mine locked away
I kept my guard up night an' day
I had enought of the games they play
Out there on the line...
It was the crime of the century
You played Robin Hood an' resuced me
Ali Baba an' the forty thieves
Ain't go nothing on you
You came on like Jesse James
You stole my heart like you were robbin' trains
I'm gonna lock you up for life with me
It was the crime of the century
You stacked the deck, you didn't gamble at all
You knew exactly how the cards would fall
You bet your heart, but as I recall
I didn't even stand a chance
I bet you had an ace up your sleeve
An' here I thought that you were so naive
You took my hand an' made me beleive
In love an' real romance
It was the crime of the century
You played Robin Hood an' resuced me
Ali Baba an' the forty thieves
Ain't go nothing on you
You came on like Jesse James
You stole my heart like you were robbin' trains
I'm gonna lock you up for life with me
It was the crime of the century
An' if I live to be a hundred an' one
Honey, don'cha think that is would be fun
To do it all over again..
It was the crime of the century
You played Robin Hood an' resuced me
Ali Baba an' the forty thieves
Ain't go nothing on you
You came on like Jesse James
You stole my heart like you were robbin' trains
I'm gonna lock you up for life with me
It was the crime of the century
I'm gonna lock you up and throw away the key
It was the crime of the century
It was love in the third degree
It was the crime of the century
