I Think About You

(karen taylor-good/joie scott)

She said we're much too different
We're from two separate worlds
And he admitted she was partly right
But in his heart's defense he told her
What they had in common
Was strong enough to bond them for life
He said look behind your own soul
And the person that you'll see
Just might remind you of me

I laugh, i love, i hope, i try
I hurt, i need, i fear, i cry
And i know you do the same things, too
So we're really not that different, me and you

She could hardly argue
With his pure and simple logic
But logic never could convince a heart
She had always dreamed of loving someone more exotic
And he just didn't seem to fit the part
So she searched for greener pastures
But never could forget
What he whispered when she left

I laugh, i love, i hope, i try
I hurt, i need, i fear, i cry
And i know you do the same things, too
So we're really not that different, me and you

Was it time or was it truth
Maybe both lead her back to his door
As her tears fell at his feet
She didn't say "i love you"
What she said meant even more

I laugh, i love, i hope, i try
I hurt, i need, i fear, i cry
And i know you do the same things, too
So we're really not that different, me and you

I believe i've attempted every move that i know
I was sure that by now you'd have let yourself go
I've been living my heart out, and without any shame
Gotten down on my knees just to kindle this flam

But tonight i am down to the wire
I've been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lt of smoke but no fire
'cause you got a heart full of rain

Now somewhere in your history there's a reason or two
Why you won't let a body get close to you
Why the truth that i whisper always sounds like a lie
Why you're drowning inside from the tears you don't cry

But your eyes have never been dryer
And you smile like you're felling no pain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'cause you got a heart full of rain

I had hoped i could open the heart that you hide
'cause it sure needs a little sunshine inside

But tonight i am down to the wire
I've been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'cause you got a heart full of rain

He finally gave in to his friend's girlfriend
When she said, "there's someone you should meet"
At a crowded restaurant way cross town
He waited impatiently
When she walked in their eyes met
And they both stared
And right there and then everyone else disappeared but

Chorus:
One boy, one girl, two hearts beating wildly
To put it mildly it was love at first sight
He smiled, she smiled, and they knew right away
This was the day they'd waited for all their lives
And for a moment the whole world revolved
Around one boy and one girl

In no time at all they were standing there
In the front of a little church
In front of their friends and family
Repeating those sacred words
Preacher said, "son kiss your bride"
And he raised her veil
Like the night they met time just stood still

Repeat chorus

He was holding her hand when the doctor looked up and grinned
"congratulations, twins"

Repeat chorus

(don schlitz/steve seskin)

Everytime i see a woman on a billboard sign
I think about you
Saying "drink this beer and you'll be mine"
I think about you
When an actress on a movie screen
Plays lolita in some old man's dreams
It doesn't matter who she is
I think about you

When i see a pretty woman walking down the street
I think about you
Men look her up and down like she's some kind of treat
I think about you
She wouldn't dare talk to a stranger
Always has to be aware of the danger
It doesn't matter who she is
I think about

Chorus:
You eight years old
Big blue eyes and a heart of gold
When i look at this world, i think about
You and i can't help but see
That every woman used to be
Somebody's little girl, i think about you

Everytime i hear people say it's never gonna change
I think about you
Like it's some kind fo joke, some kind of game
I think about you
When i see a woman on the news
Who didn't ask to be abandoned or abused
It doesn't matter who she is
I think about

Chorus

When i look at this world i think about you

(pat bunch/doug johnson)

He came to town on an old freight train
He jumped off in the pouring rain
Everybody says he's insane
Just a low down no account hobo

He made his bed beneath the county bridge
The city folks said hey, that's not his
They signed a petition they're gonna get rid
Of that low down no account white trash

What if jesus comes back like that
On an old freight train in a hobo hat
Will we let him in or turn our back
What if jesus comes back like that
Oh what if jesus comes back like that

She was born into drug abuse
She couldn't help what her mama used
It wasn't like she got to choose
Now she's layin' there all alone

Got a monkey on her back
The nurses say they never saw a smile like that
Doctor says she might stand a chance
If somebody takes her home

What if jesus comes back like that
Two months early and hooked on crack
Will we let him in or turn our back
What if jesus comes back like that
Oh what if jesus comes back like that

Nobody said life is fair
We've all got a cross to bear
When it gets a little hard to care
Just think about him hanging there

He came to town on a cold dark night
A single star his only light
The baby born that silent night
A manger for his bed

What if jesus comes back like that
Where will he find out hearts are at
Will he let us in or turn his back
What if jesus comes back like that
Will he cry when he sees where our hearts are at
Will he let us in or turn his back
What if jesus comes back like that
Hey what if jesus comes back like that
