"Teacher I Need You"

   
I was sitting in the classroom,
Trying to look intelligent
In case the teacher looked at me.
She was long and she was lean.
She's a middle-aged dream,
And that lady means the whole world to me.

It's a natural achievement,
Conquering my homework
With her image pounding in my brain.
She's an inspiration
For my graduation,
And she helps to keep the classroom sane.

Oh teacher I need you,
Like a little child.
You got something in you
To drive a schoolboy wild.

You give me education
In the lovesick blues.
Help me get straight come out and say,
Teacher I, teacher I, teacher I,
Teacher I need you.

I have to write a letter,
Tell about my feelings,
Just to let her know the scene.
Focus my attention
On some further education
In connection with the birds and the bees.

So I'm sitting in the classroom.
I'm looking like a zombie.
I'm waiting for the bell to ring.
I've got John Wayne stances.
I've got Erroll Flynn advances,
And it doesn't mean a doggone thing.

"Thanks To You"

   
You gave me life,
Gave me your heart
Your shoulder when I needed to cry
You gave me hope when all my hope is gone
Wings so my dreams can fly
And I haven't told you enough
Haven't been good enough, making you see

[Chorus:]
My love for you will live in my heart
Until eternity's through....
I see your smile in the eyes of my child
I am who I am, Mama, Thanks to you

You gave me your word,
Gave me your voice
Gave me your everything,
Each breath of your life
You believe when I can never have
You teach my faith to survive
And I never can do enough
Never thank you enough, for all that you are

[Chorus]

I know the treasure, I'm filled with grace
Whenever I see your face

And I see your smile in the eyes of my child
I am who I am, Mama, Thanks to You
To you.....

"The Best Of Me"

   
So many years gone
Still I remember
How did I ever let my heart believe
In one who never gave enough to me

And so many years gone
And love that was so wrong
I can't forget the way it used to be
And how you've changed the test of love for me

[Chorus:]
You were my one more chance
I never thought I'd find
You were the one romance
I've always had in my mind

No one will ever touch me more
And I only hope that in return
I might of saved the best of me for you

And we'll have no ending, no, no
If we can hold on
And I think I've come this far because of you
Could be no other love but ours will do

[Chorus]

No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
No matter how much we have to learn
I saved the best of me for you

"The Power Inside Of Me"

   
[From "The Mirror Has Two Faces" OST]

Seek and you shall find what you may already have.
Sometimes it's your own shadow standing in your path.
I have spent my life with a vision of myself,
But I may have been somebody, somebody else.
I feel a change in the tide
As I hold my heart open wide.

Never
Knew what I could be.
I never felt the power inside of me.
Now I stand in all the wonder
That the mirror couldn't see.
I have the power inside of me, yeah.
I have the power inside of me.

Every time I held a rose, I only felt the thorns.
I feel like today's the day I finally was born.
Now that I see me through these eyes,
I can do more than fantasize.
Never
Knew what I could be.
I never felt the power inside of me.
Now I stand in all the wonder
That the mirror couldn't see!
I have the power inside of me, oh woah.
Inside of me,
Inside of me!
Yeah.

"Thunder And Lightning"

   
I thought it was love
That hurt so bad,
But all of this time I was a fool being had.
Now it's the last stop for you, baby,
On my gravy train.
Well, I don't understand
How I could be so short of memory,
How I could just leave my pride in the rain.

No more thunder and lightning.
Nobody's gonna wrap me 'round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Ain't gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.

You played with my mind,
Baby, much too long.
You played with my head
Until all feelin' was gone.
Now I'm out of patience and money,
And my heart is numb.
You kept me in the dark,
But now I finally see some daylight.
I've got a chance.
I'm gonna run, baby, run.

[Chorus:]
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobody's gonna wrap me 'round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Ain't gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.

Nobody's gonna pull this thing back together.
It's too far out of hand.
If you wanna give it one more try,
Try it with another man.

[Guitar Interlude]

No more thunder and lightning.
Nobody's gonna wrap me 'round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Ain't gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.

[Chorus]

"You'll Never Be Alone"

   
Though you're far away from home,
Where the cold and lonely roam,
Don't forget the setting sun
Shines on everyone,
And you'll never be alone.

You'd give everything you own,
Saddle blanket, rope, and coat,
To be sitting by your side
Right at Christmas time,
And you'll never be alone.

Riding life for months on end
Is sure to set you thinking too much.
Been so long I can't remember when
The last time I felt your touch.

Though you're aching to the bone,
She loves you more than you will know.
Tell the trail to go to hell.
Just sing a Noel,
And you'll never be alone.
Woah!

[Guitar Interlude]

Yeah!
Riding life for months on end
Is sure to set you thinking too much.
It's been so long I can't remember when
The last time I felt your touch!

Though you're far away from home,
Where the cold and lonely roam,
Don't forget the setting sun
Shines on everyone,
And you'll never be alone.

I'll be sitting by your side,
Right at Christmas time,
And I'll never be alone!
