I Don't Wa

After one of my huntin', fishin' party weekends
I could hardly wait to hold my baby again
A man will never see a more beautiful sight
Than home sweet mobil home in his truck headlights
But except for a cedar deck and cinder blocks
All i saw was a vacant lot

So i'm drivin' around, all over town
Wonderin' where she hauled it away
Yeah she's on a roll, which way do i go
I've been through every single trailer park and koa
She's been mad before, but never this sore
You can surely bet from now on
I won't wander from from her lovin' arms
If i ever find my way back home

Guess my homeless situation is partly my fault
For another thousand dollars down i could have bought
That house in the country that she loved so much
With all that brick and wood there ain't no way it would budge
It's easy now to figure out where i went wrong
But a little harder finding love that's gone

So i'm drivin' around, all over town
Wonderin' where she hauled it away
Yeah she's on a roll, which way do i go
I've been through every single trailer park and koa
She's been mad before, but never this sore
You can surely bet from now on
I won't wander from from her lovin' arms
If i ever find my way back home
Yeah the next time i leave, i'm taking her or the keys
If i ever find my way (if he ever find my way)
If i ever find my way back home
Boy i'm as lost as an easter egg...

Sittin' at a table conversation
Me and may buddies, i follow what they're sayin'
100% of the daily events
But the minute she walks in my direction
Well there goes my span of attention
One look in her eyes and i'm gone for a ride

Chorus
I'm gone, i'm history, she gets the best of me
My mind drifts away and instantly i'm in another world - wishin' she was my girl
And nothin' else matters at all, i'm gone like yesterday, to another time and place
One sweet smile and i got swept away, she gives me just enough to dream on
And i'm gone

Yeah i been comin' in here for quite some time
I've got it all figured out in my mind, what i wanna say, and today's the day
Oh here she comes, heart be steady, play it cool, i got the words ready
She says hello and i away i go

Repeat chorus

(dianne warren)

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you
Is a moment i treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you, feeling your heart beating
And i'm wondering what your dreaming
Wondering if it's me your seeing
And then i kiss your eyes, and thank god we're together
I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, i just wanna be with you, right here with you
Just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing

I never claimed to know everything
I ain't got no ph.d.
But boys listen up when it comes to love
You can learn a thing or two from me

I'm no expert on makin' love work
I really can't tell you a lot
Well i don't know how to keep a woman around
But i sure know how to run one off

So listen to my words of no wisdom
There's no secret to my lack of success
Once she draws the line just cross it one time
That's the way you make an ex

I never could spell misery to well
But i know it ends with a y
Why did i do what i did when i knew
She'd get her half and half of what's mine

Takes more than luck to really mess up
It don't just hapen this way
It took sacrifice and all my exwives
To get me where i am today

So listen to my words of no wisdom
There's no secret to my lack of success
Once she draws the line just cross it one time
That's the way you make an ex
Once she draws the line just cross it one time
That's the way you make an ex
That's the way you make an ex
That's the way you make an ex

I worked myself to the bone
Tired as a man can get
It's the only way that i know
Might help me to forget
I lay me down
And i pray my soul to keep

Now it's two a.m. and i should be
Sleeping like a log
But i can't blame the poundin' rain
Or the neighbor's barkin' dog
It's what you do to me
This heartache never sleeps

Yeah twenty four hours of every day
I can feel it down in my chest
From the moment you walked away
Well i ain't got no rest
It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e
This heartache never sleeps

Well like a ghost that haunts me
Down at the end of my bed
Your memory, it taunts me
And it won't stay out of my head
Till you come back
It ain't never gonna leave

So i might as well get out of this bed
And put the coffee on
Girl you know i'm not alone
At the breakin' of the dawn
'cause just like me
This heartache never sleeps

Yeah twenty four hours of every day
I can feel it down in my chest
From the moment you walked away
Well i ain't got no rest
It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e
This heartache never sleeps
It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e
This heartache never sleeps
It won't let me be
It won't let me be
This heartache never sleeps
