Wake Me When It's Over

Gettin' tired now gotta get some sleep now
Guess I've been worried much too long
And don't wake me till it's over
When the need for you is gone
I was so happy before I loved you
I'm gonna be like I was before
And don't wake me till it's over
When I don't want you anymore

My mind is gettin' weak now gotta get some sleep now
I gotta rest my achin' head
I just wanna lay here just let me stay here
Till the blues get up and leave my bed
Good night, darling
Good night, darling
Good night forevermore
And don't wake me till it's over
When I won't want you anymore
My mind is gettin' weak now...

Walkin'

After carefully considerin' the whole situation I stand with my back to the wall
Walkin' is better than runnin' away and crawlin' ain't no good at all

And if guilty's the question truth is the answer I've been lyin' to me all alone
There ain't nothin' worth savin' except one another
And before you'll wake up I'll be gone
Cause after carefully considerin'...
[ guitar ]
After carefully considerin'...
And crawlin' ain't no good at all

Washing The Dishes

Washing the dishes scrubbing the floors
Caring for someone who don't care anymore
Learning to hate all the things that she once loved to do
Like washing his shirts and never complaining except of red stains on the collars
Ironin' and cryin' cryin' and ironin' caring for someone who don't care anymore
Someday she'll just walk away

Way You See Me

Birds flying south to the one I love
Birds flying light and free
Don't tell my darling that you saw me
Looking the way you see me
Winds blowing warm to the one I love
Winds please kiss her for me
Don't tell my darling that you saw me
Looking the way you see me
The way you see me is how I've been
And how ever since she's been gone
But tell her you saw me like I'd like to be
Tell her I'm happy alone
River of tears that I have cried
River flow on to the sea
But if you tell my darling
You flowed from my eyes
She'd see me the way you see me
She'd see me the way you see me

We Don't Run

We don't run, we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, we find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

You are the road, you are the only way
I'll follow you forever more
We'll look for love, we'll find it in the eyes
The eyes that see through all the doors

There is a train that races through the night
On rails of steel that reach the soul
Fueled by fire as soft as candle light
But it warms the heart of a love grown cold

And we don't run and we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, we find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

Words that feel, words that sympathize
Words that heal and understand
Say them now, let them materialize
Say the words throughout the land

We don't run, we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

And we don't run and we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, we find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

We Had It All

I can hear the wind a blowing in my mind
Just the way it used to sound through the Georgia pines
And you were there to answer when I called you and me we had it all
Remember how I used to touch your hair
While reaching for the feeling that was always there
You were the best thing in my life I can recall you and me we had it all
I know that we can never live those times again
So I let my dreams take me back to where we have been
Then I'll stay with you girl as long as I can
Oh it was so good oh it was so good oh it was so good when I was your man
[ guitar ]
I'll never stop believing in your smile
Even though you didn't stay it was all worth while
You were the best thing in my life I can recall you and me we had it all
You and me we had it all

We Wish You A Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry
Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry
Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

What A Merry Christmas This Could Be

What a merry Christmas this could be
If you would just come back to me
And say that you've forgiven me
What a merry Christmas this could be

It was just last Christmas that we quarreled and you
walked out
I knew I was wrong but you'd come back, I had no doubt
Now a year has rolled around, it's Christmas once again
And what I'd give if you'd come walkin' in

What a merry Christmas this could be
If you would just come back to me
And say that you've forgiven me
What a merry Christmas this could be

What a merry Christmas this could be
If you would just come back to me
And say that you've forgiven me
What a merry Christmas this could be
Christmas this could be

What A Way To Live

Each night I make the rounds
To every spot in town
A lonely man with lonely time to kill
what a way to live.

The paths my memories take
Just make my poor heart ache
I think of her I guess I always will
what a way to live.

I'd rather lay me down tonight
And never wake again
Than to face another day
the shape my life is in

The jukebox playing loud
A face among the crowd
So much like hers it makes my heart stand still
what a way to live.

--- Instrumental ---

I'd rather lay me down tonight
And never wake again
Than to face another day
the shape my life is in
The jukebox playing loud
A face among the crowd
So much like hers
it makes my heart stand still

What A Wonderful World

I see trees of green? red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed days? the dark sacred nights
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow? so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands? saying? "How do you do?"
They're really saying? 'I love you'

I hear babies crying, watch them grow
They'll learn much more? than I'll never know
And I think to myself? what a wonderful world
And I think to myself? what a wonderful world
