MY LOVING WIFE 

My brand new car has a dent in the fender
I'm so mad I could shout
But there's no need for me to complain
For she'll do it the very next time out.

Just a while ago my banker told me
That again, we were overdrawn
She writes to many checks but what the heck
My loving wife has never done me wrong.

The food she prepares I know is the best
That's ever been put on a plate
And hour by hour she's by the telephone
That's her favorite gossip place.

The house stays messed up most all of the time
It's a site for friends to come around
I know thing aren't spick and span but on the other hand
My loving wife has never left me down.

And she loves me
That makes everything alright
She's alway there waiting for me
When I come home at night.

The clothes she buys cost me way to much
But I know that it's me she dresses for
She may not have perfect ways but I tell her everyday
My loving wife, I love you like you are...

MY SHOES KEEP WALKING BACK TO YOU 

I may say that I don't care and hold up head up in the
air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
But when the day is through and my heartaches start anew
Well, that's when I miss you most of all.

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you.

--- Instrumental ---

No matter how much I pretend I wish I had you back again
For nothing else means half as much as you
My world just seemed to die the day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter what I do.

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you.

And my shoes keep walking back to you...

MY SPECIAL MEMORY 

You were something special and I loved you
You left me and you hurt me and I still will do
I can almost feel you touch me as I think about what used to be
Yes, you are still my special memory.

The kind of love that you gave me, it was a special kind
I could never find anoher you so I don't waste my time
I keep you locked up tight in my mind and no one can ever see
But you are still my special memory.

My special memory I know you will always be
My special memory is holding on to me
I'll be happy as long as you walk across my mind at least once a day
'Cause you are still my special memory...

MY SWEET IMOGENE 

I loved my little darling, my sweet Imogene
The girl of my heart and the girl of my dreams
I dreamed of a day when she'd be mine alone
To share all my hopes and to have for my own.

A cabin in a canyon, a hill with a view
Castles in the air I've built just for two
I love my little darling, my sweet Imogene
The girl of my heart and the girl of my dreams.

--- Instrumental ---

I lost my little darling, my sweet Imogene
The girl of my heart and the girl of my dreams
Her eyes are like the dawn of a blue summer day
Her face like a rose and her lips a bouquet.

The sun in the sky borrowed gold from her hair
The birds were singin' because she was there
I lost my little darlin', my sweet Imogene
The girl of my heart and the girl of my dreams...

MY TEARS ARE ON THE ROSES 

My tears on the roses
That you just gave to me
With a note that you are sorry
Begging me to set you free.

My tears are on the roses
And because I love you so
Your request I granted
That is all you'll ever know.

I'll be cryin' long, long after
The roses fade away
For without you I'll be dying
Just a little every day.

My tears are on the roses
But the roses can not tell
So my darling I will miss you
And just say I wish you well...

MY TEARS ARE OVERDUE 

(Just hang around my tears are overdue)
If you want to see somebody cry their heart out
For a love they lost and must live without
If you're not afraid my misery might rub off on you
Just hang around my tears are overdue
If you want to hear confessions from a broken man
Who once held a world of love right in his hands
If you wanna see a heartbreak right in two in front of you
Just hang around my tears are overdue
Now there's not a way that I can say how much it really hurts
When a broken heart and guilty conscience starts to work
I hope you won't forget the sight you see today
Just remember love I had then threw away
If you're not afraid my misery might rub off on you
Just hang around my tears are overdue just hang around my tears are overdue

NEAR YOU 

There's just one place for me
Near you

It's like heaven to be
Near you

Times when we're apart
And I can't face my heart

Say you'll never stay
More than just two lips away

If my hours could be spent
Near you

I'd be more than content
Near you

Make my life worth while
By telling me that I'll
Spend the rest of my days
Near you

near you - near you

Make my life worth while
By telling me that I'll spend the rest of my days
Near you

Spend the rest of my days
Near you

NEVER BIT A BULLET LIKE THIS 

I've been abused and used and skinned up and bruised
And thrown from a movin' train
I've been homeless, car less, lost in the wilderness
Out in the pourin' rain
I've been a business flop spent a year on top
Of the most unwanted list
But I never bit a bullet like this

I've taken many a fall and I got through 'em all
But I've never been hurt this bad
You're making plans with a brand new man
And the pain is driving me mad
I've had to bite the bullet when things got tough
But the sea of love has never been this rough
And I've never been this far from shore
I never bit a bullet like this before
I never bit a bullet like this

I've been tied up, fried up, chocked up and dried up
Under a lot of stress
I've been burned down, turned down, been run out of town
Up to my ears in a mess
I had a year go by with tears in my eyes
I didn't even want to exist
But I never bit a bullet like this

I've taken many a fall and I got through 'em all
But I've never been hurt this bad
And you're making plans with a brand new man
And the pain is driving me mad
I've had to bite the bullet when things got tough
But the sea of love has never been this rough
And I've never been this far from shore
I never bit a bullet like this before
I never bit a bullet like this
I never bit a bullet like this before
I never bit a bullet like this

NEVER ENDING SONG OF LOVE 

I've got a never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending love for you.

After all this time of being alone
We can love one another
Feel for each other, from now on
Feel so good I can hardly stand it.

Never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending song of love for you.

NEVER GROW COLD 

Some folks live like a king think they have everything
With great riches and treasures untold
Well we don't tell what they do but when our day is through
We've got love that would never grow cold
Never grow cold never grow cold our love will never grow cold
Never grow cold it will never grow cold our love will never grow cold

When my life here is through when they take me from you
When our earthly possessions are sold
They can have what we own still for me things are gone
We've got love that would never grow cold
Never grow cold...
Our love will never grow cold
