XM Sessions CMT, Vol. 5

I love these days when we stay all locked up in love
Finally find a little time to waste
We talk and laugh while hours pass, we can't get close enough
Making memories, nothing can erase

Nothing but us, there's no place that we've got to be
Nothing but you and your loving eyes looking back at me
So lock up the door, unplug the world, it doesn't take much
Nothing but you, nothing but me, nothing but us

The stress and strain of everyday, we leave it all outside
Get lost in a world that's all our own
Girl, I live for moments when it's just you and I
It's perfect when we're finally alone

Nothing but us, there's no place that we've got to be
Nothing but you and your loving eyes looking back at me
So lock up the door, unplug the world, it doesn't take much
Nothing but you, nothing but me, nothing but us

Let's not wait so long to make time for us again
These are memories nothing can erase

Nothing but us, there's no place that we've got to be
Nothing but you and your loving eyes looking back at me
So lock up the door, unplug the world, it doesn't take much
Nothing but you, nothing but me, nothing but us

Nothing but you, nothing but me, nothing but us
Nothing but us, nothing but us, nothing but us
Nothing but us, nothing but us, nothing but us

I love these days when we stay all locked up in love
Finally find a little time to waste
We talk and laugh while hours pass, we can't get close enough

Three feet tall, five years old
Starin' down to the bottom of Mountain Top road,
Hands wrapped tight around those plastic handle grips
I took off flying pickin' up speed
The world was a blur of rocks and weeds
It was all worth the pain of landing
Getting my first three stitches
Everyone said that I shouldn't do it
Cut and bruised but I got through it
I still got the scars to prove it

Life's like a big wheel keeps on turning
Time runs away, every day I'm learning
To roll with the punches, follow my hunches
Loving the way it feels
Just to be alive
Getting the chance to ride on the big wheel

I'm takin my share of dead end curves
Had to steady my nerves and steal my courage
Had a lot of hard landings but I ain't hanging up my wings
Yeah I'm still rippin' down that hill
Still hanging on with all my will
Lookin' back now I still
Wouldn't change a thing
I've had a few lovers leave their mark
I've broken my pride and I've broken my heart
But I'm gonna live my life before it all goes dark

(Repeat Chorus)

On the big wheel

Just to be alive
Getting the chance to ride on the big wheel
On the big wheel
On the big wheel
I'm still learning to ride on the big wheel
I'm still learning to ride on the big wheel
On the big wheel

Baby, lets take a drive, top down
Underneath the Carolina sky
We can watch the fireflies
Try to outshine the stars

I wanna lay a blanket down
Find a way back
To where our love was found
Baby, lets go right now

Back to our hearts
Beating wild
In the back of my beat up truck
Back to those butterflies

First time we felt in love
Back to your smiling eyes
Come on, baby, take my hand
Let's find a way back to our crazy days

Don't worry about what to wear
Those faded cut off jeans are my favorite pair
Don't go messing with your hair
Let it all blow around

Move over in the middle by me
Just like you did
When your daddy couldn't see
Why his little girl loved a boy like me

Back to our hearts
Beating wild
In the back of my beat up truck
Back to those butterflies

First time we felt in love
Back to your smiling eyes
Come on, baby, take my hand
Let's find a way back to our crazy days

You remember cutting class
Heading to the creek
Doin' '95 down a two lane street
Staying up all night
Talkin' about forever you and me

I can see that look in your eyes
And if I know you, they don't lie
They're telling me
You're thinking about going back
About getting back

Back to our hearts
Beating wild
In the back of my beat up truck
Back to those butterflies

First time we felt in love
Back to your smiling eyes
Come on, baby, take my hand
Let's find a way back to our crazy days
