2. _ Up and Down

3. _ You Were, You Are, You'll Always Be
I had no direction, I had no plan
In this big world I was a grain of sand
The first time our eyes met and you spoke my name
I felt a bond that only heaven could change
Don't even question, don't ever doubt
This kinda' river will never run out
You were, you are, you'll always be
My hope, my dream and all I'll need
My light in the dark, my soul, my heart
The only love for me
You were, you are, you'll always be
I won't make a promise that I can't keep
This love I feel for you runs way to deep
God as my witness by his design
I'll be with you until the end of time
You've stood beside me, you've been so true
I can't imagine my life without you
You were, you are, you'll always be
My hope, my dream and all I'll need
My light in the dark, my soul, my heart
The only love for me
You were, you are, you'll always be
My light in the dark, my soul, my heart
The only love for me
You were, you are, you'll always be

4. _ Goodbye Is the Wrong Way to Go
Your sister's waiting outside
And that horn keeps blowing
You say you can't go home,
Without knowing, where we're going
And crying,
Saying there's no use trying
You took off your ring
Got your bags all packed
We both said some things
That we can't take back
But I?m no quitter
Baby stop and reconsider
We could call it quits
Wash our hands of this
And just move on down the road
But goodbye is the wrong way,
Goodbye is the wrong way,
Goodbye is the wrong way to go
Well we've come so far
And it's such a shame,
To be pointing fingers,
And placing blame
Baby calm down
I still love you
We can turn this around
Anything worth having,
Is worth fighting for
I just can't stand here,
While you walk out the door
If you stay the night,
I know we can make this work out right
We could call it quits
Wash our hands of this
And just move on down the road
But goodbye is the wrong way,
Goodbye is the wrong way,
Goodbye is the wrong way to go

5. _ That's What Honky Tonks Are For

6. _ I'm Lonesome Too
You call me up and say your tears are fallin'
You know I'd love to comfort you
Guess we always had alot in common
You know, I'm lonesome, too
You know, I'm lonesome, too
If pouring rain and thunder shakes your window
Trouble comes knockin' out of the blue
It don't matter which way that old wind blows
‘cause, I'm lonesome, too
I'm lonesome, too
If there's something in your heart, you can't get over
I'll be the ladder you can use
Climb on up and cry here, on my shoulder
You know I'm lonesome too
There's a well upon that hill, that's good for wishin'
And time and time again, I wish for you
But, my heart's broke and all my money's missin'
You know, I'm lonesome, too
You know, I'm lonesome, too

7. _ She Used to Say That to Me
Let's take a rest
Your kisses take my breath
You are the best
It's never been like this
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
She'll tell you she'll never leave
She used to say that to me
It thrills you so
When she whispers soft and low
Please hold me tight
I need your love tonight
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
She'll tell you she'll never leave
She used to say that to me
I'm yours, she sighs
And she means it at the time
But someday she'll go
If you're wondering how I know
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
She'll tell you she'll never leave
She used to say that
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
She'll tell you she'll never leave
She used to say that to me
She used to say that to me

8. _ Up North (Down Douth, Back East, Out West)
In spite of the name, Independence, Kansas
Didn't grow many wild roses
But she was young and restless
And I loved her though holding her down was hopeless
I wanted her to say she couldn't live without
The life I had to offer but all she could talk about
Was faraway dreams, cities she'd never seen
How do I find that girl when she could be
Out there anywhere she just up and left
She didn't leave a forwarding address
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
She could be in a million places I guess
Up north, down south, back east, out west
She could be up in the Windy City
Where the world spins a little bit faster
Or gettin' a tan down in Miami that might be where I'd catch her
Maybe back in Virginia, her cousin lives there
Out in Arizona, she'd fit in anywhere
It's anyone's guess where she came to rest
My one chance for happiness is
Out there anywhere she just up and left
She didn't leave a forwarding address
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
She could be in a million places I guess
Up north, down south, back east, out west
I'm sitting here at a four-way intersection
Praying Lord won't you point me in the right direction
She could be
Out there anywhere she just up and left
She didn't leave a forwarding address
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
She could be in a million places I guess
Up north, down south, back east, out west
Up north, down south, back east, out west

9. _ Life After Lovin' You
Black coffee and her cigarettes
Another day I'd just soon forget
Doin' time with all my old regrets
Runnin' down another sunset
Albuquerque by the midnight
I found myself some neon lights
Strong whiskey and a bar fight
On the road again at sunrise
And these highways and heartaches
Losin' games and bad breaks
I'm runnin' down and always runnin' out of room
It's been near misses and high stakes
Out of luck and out of place
A dollar short and a day late
Nothin' left to lose
Oh girl, it ain't nothin' new
It's just a life after lovin' you
Truckstop, I'm pullin' in
Check the map and hit the road again
'Cause in the rear view lookin' in
I wish I had some coulda beens
And these highways and heartaches
Losin' games and bad breaks
I'm runnin' down and always runnin' out of room
It's been near misses and high stakes
Out of luck and out of place
A dollar short and a day late
Nothin' left to lose
Oh girl, it ain't nothin' new
It's just a life after lovin' you
Somewhere this road gettin' over you
Has gotta end
Someday I'll find someplace I can turn around
But for now
It's gonna be highways and heartaches
Losin' games and bad breaks
I'm runnin' down and always runnin' out of room
It's been near misses and high stakes
Out of luck and out of place
A dollar short and a day late
Nothin' left to lose
Oh girl, it ain't nothin' new
It's just a life after lovin' you
Oh girl, it ain't nothin' new
It's just a life after lovin' you

10. _ What's It Gonna Take
Well, you gave me your number
I wrote it on my kitchen wall
And I've been gettin' these signals every time I call
See what this game you're playin'
It ain't no fun at all
Tell me, what's it gonna take to make you love me?
What's it gonna take to make you mine?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
All of the time
Is there a mystery I haven't discovered?
Is there a magic word I need to say?
Is there a way to spark a fire in your heart?
What's it gonna take?
Baby, when we're out ridin' in my old Chevrolet
You kept me slow and you started
With all the things you say
You act like you want to kiss me
But baby it's flyin' away
Tell me, what's it gonna take to make you love me?
What's it gonna take to make you mine?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
All of the time
Is there a mystery I haven't discovered?
Is there a magic word I need to say?
Is there a way to spark a fire in your heart?
What's it gonna take?
What's it gonna take to make you love me?
What's it gonna take to make you mine?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
All of the time
Is there a mystery I haven't discovered?
Is there a magic word I need to say?
Is there a way to spark a fire in your heart?
What's it gonna take?
Is there a way to spark a fire in your heart?
What's it gonna take?
