1. _ Things Change
(dwight yoakam)
She said, baby things change. i said, but i feel the same.
She said, well let me explain, baby, how things can change
I said, but that doesn't show how a love that could grow
Would become so estranged. she said, well baby, things change
Chorus:
She said, na, na, na, na, na, now, now
Now, now, now
Baby, don't try to figure this out
Or ask questions 'bout why
Forever's a promise
No love can survive
And trust with hearts
Just don't apply
She said,
'cause baby, things change
Chorus:
She said, na, na, na, na, na, now, now, baby, don't try
To figure this out, or ask questions 'bout why
Forever's a promise no love can survive
And trust with hearts just don't apply
She said, 'cause baby, things change
Na, na, na, na, na, now, now, so baby, i quite tryin'
To figure things out about all your heart's lyin'
Forever's a promise we couldn't survive
Hey, i may be slow, but i ain't blind
She said, i still love you so. i said, i don't care to know
She said, you once cried my name. i said, well baby, things change
And let's don't go placing no blame, 'cause you know things can change
Na, na, na, na, na, na. na, na, na, na, na, na
She said, you once cried my name. i said, well baby, things change
Na, na, na, na, na, na. na, na, na, na, na, na
Let's don't go placing no blame, 'cause you know things can change
Na, na, na, na, na, na. na, na, na, na, na, na

2. _ The Curse
(dwight yoakam)
Don't you sleep.
Don't you have a single moment's peace
Just walk through the darkness with fears that are deep
And don't you even sleep
Don't you smile.
Don't you have happy thoughts for a while
'til teardrops and sadness both go out of style
No, don't you even smile
Chorus:
These are the things i wish for you
Deep in my heart how i hope they come true
And then you'll know when bad turns to worse
What it's like to live under love's curse
Chorus:
These are the things i wish for you
Deep in my heart how i hope they come true
And then you'll know when bad turns to worse
What it's like to live under love's curse
Don't you try
To have a single thought that goes by
Without being haunted by memories like mine
No, don't you even try

3. _ That's Okay
(dwight yoakam)
That's okay. it's alright
No really, everything is cool
This is just the way i look
When i'm feeling like a fool
Teardrops falling jealous
Drowning in them's just as well as
Drifting on this lonely sea of pain
Could have used another
Night or so to be recovered
Believe the lies i told myself
But just as long as you know
That's okay. it's alright
No really, everything is cool
This is just the way i look
When i'm feeling like a fool
Voice about us softly mumbling
Words that trip my heart is stumbling
To the ground and crawls there knees
I'll embrace small shards of silence
To avoid a loss this violent
And survive love's darkest fears
Just as long as you know
That's okay. it's alright
No really, everything is cool
This is just yhe way i look
When i'm feeling like a fool
When i'm feeling like a fool

4. _ Listen
(dwight yoakam)
Listen in the places you hide
Woah, oh, oh, listen through the stillness inside
Yeah, yeah, yeah listen to the words that are near
And try to hear
Listen take one less step away
Please listen love may persuade you to stay
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby listen past the sound of your fear
And try to hear
Two hearts that doubted now beg to believe
Acting in silence, each whispers a plea
Secrets of longing kept buried away
Sadly their calling grows weaker each day
Yeah, please listen for hope that's been left behind
Listen to the small traces you find
Yeah, yeah, baby, please listen before this chance disappears
And try to hear
Listen in the places you hide
Yeah, listen through the stillness inside
Please, please baby listen for the love that is near
And try to hear
Yeah, listen
Whoa, listen
Please, baby listen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby listen
Past the sound of all fears and try to hear

5. _ Same Fool
(dwight yoakam)
I'm just the same fool, the old fool
The one fool, that you won't fool no more
'least not the way that you fooled
The last fool you fooled before
So let the next fool, the new fool
Be a fool, that you will fool for sure
Just know that this fool, won't be fooled
Like all those other fools no more
Go find some real fool, no near fool
The kind of fool, that knows what fools are for
That'll give your foolin' heart, those foolish thrills
It won't stand a chance to ignore
They'll be a fine fool, a flat blind fool
A sort of fool, with not a clue about what's in store
Doing every fool-filled thing you need him to
For however long it is that fools endure
You might be finding a little lately
That i've been a greatly changing man
You don't seem worried, so i'm encouraged
This won't discourage all you other plans
I'm just the same fool, the old fool
The one fool, that you won't fool no more
'least not the way that you fooled the last fool you fooled before
No, not the way that you fooled all those other fools no more

6. _ These Arms
(dwight yoakam)
These arms that hang here by my side
These arms that ache to open wide
Useless arms with nothing left to do
Since these arms stopped holding you
These arms are worthless now to me
They let you go so how good could they be
Just foolish arms
For which i have no need
A pair of arms that grew weak and set love free
Reaching out to embrace
A vacant memory
Finding just the empty space
Around what's left of me
Two arms that failed completely
Arms both scarred so deeply
Keep paying love's costs
With each tragic sway
Trying meekly to assist
My struggle with the truth
Unable to resist
What tears still make us view
Two arms that failed completely
Arms both scarred so deeply
Keep paying love's costs
With each tragic sway
These arms that hang here by my side
These arms that ache to open wide
Useless arms with nothing left to do
Since these arms stopped holding you
Since these arms stopped holding you

7. _ Only Want You More
(dwight yoakam)
Hey girl, hey girl, you warned me to go
But girl, but girl, little did i know
All the things you told me
About what lay in store
Would only make me want you more
Chorus:
No not a word had one chance to save me
From your love. that wicked love
There's not a prayer left for me escaping
From your love. yeah, that wicked love
Hey girl, hey girl, i begged and hollered please
But girl, but girl, even from my knees
All the things you told me
About what lay in store
Only made me want you more
Chorus:
No pain can stop, or rid me what i'm needing
From your love. that wicked love
'cause what i crave all night, and end each day still seeking
Is your love. yeah, that wicked love
Hey girl, hey girl, i tried to understand
But girl, but girl, there ain't no way i can
'cause all the things you told me
About what lay in store
Only made me want you more

About what lay in store
Yeah, they only make me want you more

8. _ A Long Way Home
(dwight yoakam)
Don't look inside. no don't look there
'cause you might find yourself somewhere
Walkin' round lost and alone
Without one clue that it's a long way home
Years and years is a lot of time
To drag your heart across every rock you find
Hate is deep and its pull is strong
But the passion's short then it's a long way home
I can't take one single step for you
But i might just help to find some small pathway through
Don't look back 'cause you might see
Just how far all that used to be
Just let your mind think on what's gone
And then you'll know that it's a long way home
Yeah, you'll know that it's a long way home
You'll find out that it's a long way home
There ain't no doubt that it's a long way home

9. _ I'll Just Take These
(dwight yoakam)
I think that i will just take a memory
A small one that i know real well, then go
What i'll take is all the happy thoughts i can recall
But i know there won't be much that i can bear to touch
Chorus:
So i'll just take what my mind can stand
'cause there's not a lot that you can hold
In trembling hands
Just these last few hopeful things that we left lay
Then quickly leave before any more
Get in my way
Chorus:
So i'll just take what my mind can stand
'cause there's not a lot that you can hold
In trembling hands

10. _ Traveler's Lantern
(dwight yoakam)
If deep in the night
You hear a voice calling
Lost and alone
Barely able to speak
With each weary step
Through cold shadow they stumble
Blindly along
Frail, hopeless and weak
Chorus:
Won't you set out a traveler's lantern
Just a small light that they might see
To guide them back home before they wander
Into the dark billows that crash on the sea
At dawn's rise you may find
The footprints of angels
Brought to fellowship there
By your mercy lamp's flame
Walking beside
The weary soul life's forgotten
Bringing comfort and love
And gently leading their way
Chorus:
Won't you set out a traveler's lantern
Just a small light that they might see
To guide them back home before they wander
Into the dark billows that crash on the sea

11. _ I Wouldn't Put It Past Me
(dwight yoakam)
I wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't press my luck
If i were you i don't believe
I'd take that chance with love
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
I wouldn't play so boldly
Or push a sure thing too long
'cause your luck can get thin, bets not win
Then pretty soon love's up and gone
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
So, i wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't keep risking heartache
In any more games like these
'cause there's a way to lose hard with every card
You'll find out on your knees
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
So, i wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't press my luck
If i were you i don't believe
I'd take that chance with love
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
I wouldn't put it past me

12. _ Yet To Succeed
(dwight yoakam)
Please don't start me cryin'
'cause i'll go on for days
If don't take a lot
But once this starts, it stays
Talking used to help
Here lately though,
That just brings it on
Chorus:
I'll be fine in time
But right now, i'm just trying to forget you
And clearly i have yet to succeed
I think i'll just leave now
Before this hurts too much
Avoiding sights from places
My eyes can't bear to touch
I didn't plan to see you
And then i saw him first
Chorus:
I'll be fine in time
But right now, i'm just trying to forget you
And clearly i have yet to succeed

Would only make me want you more
