You keep closing your eyes. Trying to ignore it, hoping it'll disappear. Face to face with your own Goliath. At least that's how it looks from here. All the stones you can throw won't scare it away.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh. . You walk in the room and all the girls talk. I guess you get used to most of them. Falling down at your feet. . 'Cause you got the charm and the definite down.
Way on past the boulevards. Out here underneath the stars. I've been flying past the houses, farms and fields. . Leaving all I know back there. Rushing through the cold night air.
Somewhere down that lonesome track. Theres a lover leavin and he wont be back. And theres a heart thats breakin as the sun goes down. And the silence of goodbye is such a lonesome sound.
Way on past the boulevards out here underneath the stars. I've been flying past the houses farms and fields. Leaving all I know back there rushing through the cold night air.
Leave your heartaches just outside the door. Lean your troubles up against my heart. And anytime you need a friend to laugh or cry with you. Remember, nobody loves you like I do.
I can tell by lookin' at the. Shadows across the wall. Without pickin' up, who it is. Who decided to call. . It's late and you're all tore down. You woke up darlin' and found.
See him there at the table, watch him tear at the label. From the bottle that he just drank dry. In his mind there's a burning, it took a long time but hes learning.
I've got a never ending love for you. From now on that's all I want to 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.
I followed you around like a little lost child. Barely dancin' with your shadow. I didn't say a thing, I let you run wild. Till your love pierced me like an arrow.
You may see me and think that I'm happy. 'Cos I'm out with somebody new. Well, I made make believe. He's everything I need. But it's not like it was with you.
I walked into the club last night. I hadn't been there for so long. Thinking foolishly I might find you sitting all alone. . But oh, how dreams lie. When she put her arms around you.
From the highest highs to the lowest lows. We've gone as far as two can go. And we'll never, never be the same. . And we fought to keep our love alive.
Bradley comes home from school. He looks happier today than any other day. He won't go out with me. I don't care if i never see his face. Sometimes i wanna get out of here.
Now Lord, what can I do for you?. . In a land where there's freedom to worship. It was there that beauty creates that I should be born. You gave me the breath of life and let me see the light of dawn.
When I needed sunshine you saved it for me. When I had no future you made it for me. So I'm gonna love you for all that I'm worth. Cause lonely is only a word.
Don't you try to tell me someone's waiting. They're not waiting for you. Oh and don't you try to tell me that you're wanted. That you're needed. Cause it's not true.
I know you believe in miracles. And that this love will come back around. And I know you believe the grass is growing. Across this winter to the south of this town.
What the hell was I doing there in that fast food parking lot?. They say I robbed the restaurant and a Memphis cop got shot. I was trying to feed my habit, I was scared and I was high.
(Nanci Griffith). . Something's disturbed me. I'm out of your company. Out of the country. With another man's heart. I'm angered and doubtful. I'd shout a earful.
