Eagle When She Flies

Who do you think you are
What do you think this is
A game you can play
Tryin' to steal him away
Well, i don't need a heartache like this
Well, don't think i don't go through hell
But heaven is what we both want
He's easy to love, but he's hard to give up
And if you think i will, well, you're wrong

Chorus:

The best woman wins
I will fight 'til the end
I'll lay down and die if i must
I'll beg and i'll plead
I will suffer and bleed
But he must make a choice between us

This soap opera play that we're in
Is just like you watch on t.v.
But i never thought that i'd ever get caught in it;
Starring you, him and me

In love as in war all is fair
So a fight to the finish begins
When you fight from desire
You fight fire with fire
So may the best woman win

Repeat chorus

So may the best woman win

Saw you turnin' down main street in your big, black fancy car
You were dressed up fit to kill, with a pretty girl on your arm
You spun around and you headed up town
Where the neon lights all shine
Left me choking in a cloud of dust
You never pay me no mind
Chorus:

You're livin' in the fast lane
I guess i'm just too slow
I never wore silk or fancy furs
Just plain ole calico

I'll never be a fast lane lover
And they're the only kind you take up town
I am just a country road
That you keep turnin' down

If you ever hit a dead end street
If it's love that you're looking for
You can always turn around
And beat a path right to my door
Do i have to draw you a map
You seem to know your way around
So when you're tired of spinnin' your wheels
Baby, we can go to town

Repeat chorus

I'll never be a fast lane lover
And they're the only kind you take up town
I am just a country road
That you keep turnin' down

I am just a country road
That you keep turnin' down

Repeat chorus

Got a crazy, restless feelin'
I cannot be consoled
Got an itchy urge to up and run
I think i've lost control
You do something to me
Something that i really can't explain
I ain't felt like this since i'ze a kid
And i never thought i'd feel this much again
Chorus:

I've got that runaway feelin'
Like to grab you up
Just run off, footloose and fancy free
Yeah, that thought's appealing
That runaway feelin's let my feelin's run away with me

I get all swimmy-headed everytime i look at you
Though love has blurred my vision, i still enjoy the view
Like elvis and his hound dog, in a deep fog
I keep a'runnin' after you
I thought i'd been in love before
But before doesn't matter anymore

Repeat chorus

Ah, run with it, boys

Repeat chorus

Tag:

I've got that runaway feelin' (runaway)
Runaway feelin' (runaway)
Won't you run away with me

Intro:
If you need me, i'll be gone

The bed's still warm where you just left
But it'll be colder where i've slept
I've always been where you needed me
But i ain't the fool i used to be

You come home all hours of the night
The fragrance on you ain't old spice
Tonight when you come draggin' home
And find you need me, i'll be gone

1st chorus:

I'll be gone like the moon when the sun comes up
Gone like the dew from the buttercup
Gone like a woman treated wrong
If you need me, i'll be gone

So, what am i still doing here?
You've been doin' me wrong for years
Tired of pickin' up and puttin' out
I'm leaving you lock, stock, and house

So, bye, bye, baby
That's it, i'm packed
I'm a'leavin' now, but i'll call back
And leave this message on the code-a-phone
Sayin', if you need me, well, i'll be gone

2nd chorus:

I'll be gone like the moon when the sun comes up
Gone like the dew from the buttercup
Gone like a woman leavin' home
If you need me, i'll be gone

Repeat 2nd chorus

I said, if you need me, i'll be gone

Tag:

If you need me, i'll be gone
I said, if you need me, i'll be gone

I thought i saw the promise of forever in your eyes
I thought that i was sure of what i saw
You led me to believe that i was special in your life
So i left my heart wide open for the fall
What a heartache you turned out to be
Chorus:

What a heartache, what a heartache
Love ain't always what it appears to be
What a heartache you turned out to be

I thought i'd found a safe and lovin' place inside your heart
And i was warm and willing anytime
The same soft lips that kissed me sweet
Were lyin' from the start
But i swear i thought your love was genuine
What a heartache you turned out to be

Chorus:

What a heartache, what a heartache
Like a switchblade that cuts quick and deep
Ooo, what a heartache you turned out to be

Bridge:

It just goes to show that you never can tell
I really thought that i knew you well
I still can't believe i could be deceived so easily
Are all these wishes i'm wishin' to myself
Like rusty coins in a wishin' well
Wishes come true, they come false as well
It's too late for you and me
Oh, what a heartache, ooo, what a heart break
Love is two-faced and easy to believe

Chorus:

What a heartache, ooo, what a heartache
What a mistake to think i could believe
Ooo, what a heartache you turned out to be
Oh, what a heartache you turned out to be

Intro:
Like the morning sun
His love moved across every inch of my body

And the heat from the fire burned me up with desire
I thought i'd died and gone to heaven for sure

This morning when i opened my eyes
There to my surprise
Lay that angel i thought had been only a dream
And so i said a little prayer
And thanked god, that he was there
Oh, this is a dream come true

1st chorus:

Dream do come true
I know 'cause i found you
I never thought they did
But now i do
Dreams do come true

It was love at first sight
And it was love all night

And the way he made love to me
Fulfilled all my fantasies
Ooo, this is a dream come true

2nd chorus:

Yes, dreams do come true
I know 'cause i found you
I never thought they did
But you're living proof
That dreams do come true

Tag:

Dreams do come true
And i am so in love with you
