And let it go

If I could ever feel the way I felt
I'll take a chance with someone else
And if my heart takes chances too
Someday I might get over you

Oh I never thought I'd see it
But I think I see the light now
I know that what I have to do
Is get on with my life, but I can't take another day
I can't face another night, so I just take another breath
And let it go

Well I opened my heart, and I let you in
I promised I'd never love again
Right now it's still somethin' I still can't do
Someday I might get over you
Though it may not be 'til my life is through
Someday I might get over you

"Never Gonna Feel That Way Again"

Friday night butterflies
Like clockwork they'd arrive
A little chill and the October sky
Nervous till the kickoff game
4 quarters win or lose
Spent Saturdays black and blue
But it was what I love to do
And it was more than just a game

It was my life and it was fun
Another season of my life is done
Another race I'm glad I got to run
Another chapter of my life its over
No I'm never gonna feel like that again
Times rushin by me like the wind
Never be as young as I was then

No I'm never gonna feel like that again

Practice dancin in my garage
Two left feet and a white corsage
Daddy let me borrow the dodge
Said don't bring her home on empty
Swung by and picked up Cindy Lou
Took her to the prom for a dance or two
Then we drove down to the water blue and that's where she kissed me

It was my life and it was fun
Another season of my life is done
Another race i'm glad I got to run
Another chapter of my life its over
No i'm never gonna feel like that again
Times rushin by me like the wind
Never be as young as I was then
no i'm never gonna feel like that again

I got a call one July day
Cindy Lou was in that way
Had a big decision to make
and I couldn't take it lightly
At first I thought of leavin town
but I couldn't let our families down
now I'm out here throwin this ball around

with a boy that looks just likes me

Its my life and its sure fun
Another season of my lifes begun
Another race I'm glad I get to run
another chapter of my life I'm writin
No I'm never gonna feel like this again
Times rushin by me like the wind
Got to grab each moment that I can
Cuz I'm never gonna feel like this again
no I'm never gonna feel like this again
Nooooooooo I'm never gonna feel like this again

"One Step Up"

Woke up this mornin
The house was cold
Checked the furnace she wasn't burnin'
Went out and hopped in my old Ford
Hit the engine but she ain't a turnin
Given each other some hard lessons lately
But we aren't learnin
Same sad story thats a fact
Once step up and two steps back

Bird on a wire outside my motel room but he aint singin
Girl in white outside a church in june
but the church bells they aint ringin'
Sittin here in this bar tonight
and all i'm thinkin is
How the same old story same old act
One step up and two steps back

Its the same thing night all night
Whos wrong and baby whos right
Another fight and i slam the door on
Another battle in our dirty little war
When I look at myself I dont see the man I wanted to be
somewhere along the line I slipped off track

livin one step up and two steps back

Theres a girl across the bar
I get the message shes sendin
Mmm she aint lookin too married
We well honey I pretended
Last night I dreamed I held you in my amrs
the music was never endin
we danced as the evening sky faded to black
movin one step up and two steps up
(one step up and two steps back)
one step up and two steps back
(one step up and two steps back)
One step up and two steps back
(one step up and two steps back)
one step up and two steps back

ohhh..baby we're movin

One step up and two steps back
One step up and two steps back
One step up and two steps back
mmm..one step up and two steps back
(one step up and two steps back)
(one step up and two steps back)

"There Goes My Life"

All he could think about was I'm too young for this.
Got my whole life ahead.
Hell I'm just a kid myself.
How'm I gonna raise one.

All he could see were his dreams goin' up in smoke.
So much for ditchin' this town and hangin' out on the coast.
Oh well, those plans are long gone.

[Chorus:]
And he said,
There goes my life.
There goes my future, my everything.
Might as well kiss it all good-bye.
There goes my life.......

A couple years of up all night and a few thousand diapers later.
That mistake he thought he made covers up the refrigerator.

Oh yeah..........he loves that little girl.

Momma's waiting to tuck her in,
As she fumbles up those stairs.
She smiles back at him dragging that teddy bear.
Sleep tight, blue eyes and bouncin' curls.

[Chorus:]
He smiles.....
There goes my life.
There goes my future, my everything.
I love you, daddy good-night.
There goes my life.

She had that Honda loaded down.
With Abercrombie clothes and 15 pairs of shoes and his American Express.
He checked the oil and slammed the hood, said you're good to go.

She hugged them both and headed off to the West Coast.

[Chorus:]
And he cried,
There goes my life.
There goes my future, my everything.
I love you.
Baby good-bye.

There goes my life.
There goes my life.
Baby good-bye.

"I Go Back"

"Jack and Diane" painted a picture of my life and my dreams,
Suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me
Well I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along
Cause everytime I hear that song...

I go back to a two toned short bed Chevy
Drivin my first love out to the levvy
Livin life with no sense of time
And I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Everytime I hear that song, I go back

I used to rock all night long to "Keep On Rockin Me Baby"
Frat parties, college bars, just tryin to impress the ladies
I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along
