01a. We never got to dance

How can it be so hard to set free
Everything you are to me
Please help me find some piece of mind
From all of those questions unanswered inside
Too hard to say it's over
Still I regret losing you

We never got to dance
You never took the chance
I never got to touch
Your heart to show how much
Your all that I believe
Your love is all I need
We never got to dance

The distance between us
Grew tired and cold
Pieces of broken dreams
Were too hard to hold
I'm turning the pages
The stories been told
But I'm hanging on and not letting you go
Fighting so long to forget about you
Refusing to hear the truth

We never got to dance
You never took the chance
I never got to touch
Your heart to show how much
Your all that I believe
Your love is all I need
We never got to dance

I believe in the time I believe I get on with my life
Still I don't know, don't know how, don't know when

Too hard to say it's over
Still I regret losing you

We never got to dance
You never took the chance
I never got to touch
Your heart to show how much
Your all that I believe
Your love is all I need
We never got to dance

04a. Until we kiss goodnight

I don't have to tell you
Words could not explain
We've tried to love each other
But it only caused us pain

Something lost between us
Is more than we can hide?

Until we kiss goodnight
Until we say goodbye
Don't say a word
Lay down beside me one more time
Until we kiss goodnight

Can we both be truthful?
To how we feel inside
Are we compromising?
An old familiar lie

It hasn't been so easy
Giving up this fight

Until we kiss goodnight
Until we say goodbye
Don't say a word
Lay down beside me one more time
Until we kiss goodnight

We tried to understand it
Only love can break your heart
I won't listen to my heart
I'll find the courage
Instead of hangin' on

Something lost between us
Is more than we can hide

Until we kiss goodnight
Until we say goodbye
Don't say a word
Lay down beside me one more time
Until we kiss goodnight

05a. Second Time Around

Night is getting closer
While I watch the setting sun
I thank my lucky stars
I'm the lucky one

Cause when I'm down or troubled
You're there to break the fall
I'll always treasure your devotion

Seldom do I speak of
How you mean the world to me
And my stream of admiration
Is greater than the sea

And If I had the chance to be with you
Once again in another life
I would ask that God send me homeward bound
And If I could give my love to you each and every night
I wouldn't change a thing
The Second Time Around

Not in the lifetime
With my head up in the clouds
Would you ever build me up
Just so you could tear me down

Each and every moment
When forever seems too long
There's a light that shines above me
That keeps the fire burning strong

08a. That's the way it goes

I was driving down the road
To a place not far from home
As I turned around the bend
There she stood - heaven sent

I could not believe my eyes
When she said - Won't you take me for a ride

I believe in miracles
And miracles do come true
Did I conceive this fairy tale?
Or baby was it you

And she said
Take me to my castle
Where I can make you King upon your throne
And I'll give you all your heart desires
Cause I'm the queen and that's the way it goes

So the next thing I knew
I went home and packed a bag or two
As I drove up to her place
Why it was no bigger than a closet space

I could only hope
That her bed was built for two
And she said honey don't you worry
I'll make room enough for you

But I've got one suggestion
Cause I believe in you
Let me take you to my palace
Where dreams like yours come true

So come with me to my castle
Where you will be the queen upon your throne
I'll give you all your heart desires
Cause I'm the King and that's the way it goes

I believe in miracles
A miracle did come true
Well this is not a fairy tale
Cause baby I've got you

Welcome to my castle
Where you will be the Queen upon your throne
I'll give you all your heart desires
Cause I'm the King and that's the way it goes

11a. Two steps back

Me and the boys we got to thinkin'
We'd swing around town for a little bit of drinkin'
So we headed on down to the Whisky and Rye
But from the corner of the bar she caught my eye

It's been a long day
I've been workin' too hard
So I came to unwind
But now you've got me workin' overtime

Girl you set my soul on fire
I can't believe you've got me on the run
With one step closer to desire
I'm two steps back to where I started from

I headed on out but there you stood
Like a devil in disguise you were lookin' so good
Well I should know, what I knew back then
You got a hold on me to the bitter end

But what can I do
To get away from you
Cause whereever I go
You're in my shadow

Girl you set my soul on fire
I can't believe you've got me on the run
With one step closer to desire
I'm two steps back to
Where I started from

I can read your mind
Don't you give me that line
Cause whatever you do
There ain't no workin' things out with you

Girl you set my soul on fire
I can't believe you've got me on the run
With one step closer to desire
I'm two steps back to where I started from

12a. You gotta lose a little something

I packed up my essentials
And crowded up the truck
I had enough of the city life
I played out all my luck

My thoughts kept overflowing
I didn't like the spill
It was then that I decided
That I had had my fill

Blue skies-good times
That's all fine
They were a close to second to none
But country folks can take me home
Cause they're still number one

CHORUS
You gotta lose a little somethin'
To win one back
You've gotta slow down and come around
To put things back on track
If there's a hill you can't get over
Just relax
Cause you gotta lose a little somethin'
To win one back

When I was there I met Julie
She was always feelin' blue
Sue was much to busy
To ever follow through

Then came Linda-Fun and sweet
I thought I had it all
Until I saw her kissing someone
From across the hall

One dance-romance
One night stands
I read the writings on the wall
But if you ain't got that country lovin'
Then you ain't got nothin' at all

CHORUS

Blue skies-good times
That's all fine
They were a close to second to none
But country folks can take me home
Cause they're still number one

15a. Home ain't where the heart is
Home ain't where the heart is
Love don't live here anymore
I'm gonna make some changes
To keep our love alive
Cos home ain't where the heart is

You came waltzing in at 3 a.m.
You left me here in pieces once again
I've tried almost everything
To keep from losing you
But there are still one or two things I can do

I'll hang a neon sign in the hallway
And tell your friends we're open all the time
I'll even pour the whiskey jugs so I won't be alone
Anything to keep you here at home

Home ain't where the heart is
Love don't live here anymore
I'm gonna make some changes
To keep our love alive
Cos home ain't where the heart is

I'm gonna put a jukebox in the hallway
And have it playin' all your favourite songs
We could make a dancefloor where the kitchen used to be
And maybe then you'll end some night with me

Home ain't where the heart is
Love don't live here anymore
I'm gonna make some changes
To keep our love alive
Cos home ain't where the heart is

21a. Wrapped around your finger

Baby I know your just a man
Trying to do the best he can
I've heard things lately, so please don't hate me
If I take some time to explain

I heard said you've been foolish
Still tryin' to be one of the guys
So let me remind you that's all behind you
Now your a man with family ties

Cos I'll be wrapped around your finger darling
Everywhere you go
And I'll still be waiting for you
When you get home
Wrapped around your finger like
A ring I gave to you
That band of gold is 10 years old
Keeps you wrapped around mine too

Some people say I'm crazy
For loving you the way I do
Now and forever we'll be together
Sharing our love love so warm and true

Cose I'll be wrapped around your finger darling
Everywhere you go
And I'll still be waiting for you
When you get home
Wrapped around your finger like
A ring I gave to you
That band of gold is 10 years old
Keeps you wrapped around mine too
