(Rosanne Cash - Vince Gill). . You were like a lost kid looking for home. You found what you wanted right in my arms. So if you walk out on me. Leave your memory.
Take a look at my eyes. It's been a long, long time. I used to feel so strong. When I knew you were mine. . But since you let me down. I'm hard to be around.
(Rosanne Cash). . You give me no reason to cry but I do. You tell me you don't tell me lies, is that true?. I can't stand your strange emotion. I don't like your meek devotion.
Mobile like a mystery town. Water, heat and moon. Steam on the magnolia trees. Never ending rooms. What happened to that other life. We thought we lived, we two?.
Rain, rain. Lord watch it rain. Wash away the dirt. Can't wash away the pain. I feel as empty. As a paper cup. Gonna take that thing. Gonna fill it up.
We crawled night and day through the tears and debries. Now I'm reaching out to you but I'm keeping my hands clean. The tables are turning the tempo slows down.
On the surface everything seems right no one notices the dimness of the light. For the world outside our door our smiles are oh so bright. On the surface everything's all right.
This is the place where I made my best mistakes. This is the place even angels don't understand. I've seen the disappointment in her face. And the collection of engagement rings on her right hand.
(Rosanne Cash). . I picked up the phone, you were both on the line. Your words to each other froze me in time. A lifetime between us just burnt on the wires.
(John Hiatt). . She paints her fingernails forbidden tones. She wants nervous youth on the telephone. He don't call. She sticks another pin. In her doll.
(Rosanne Cash). . Standing on the edge of tonight. Don't know if I'll fall or fly. But that's the price you pay for temptation. There's no other way through temptation.
Radio operator, in a tiny foreign room. We can hear you now and later. Calling out and coming through. . Radio operator, you're a voice so far from home.
Don't want to be a star. I don't want to talk through glass. I don't want to check my appearance. In your eyes. . I don't need a million bucks. And baby, it don't take much.
My memory is filling with smoke. Such a relief not to know. Except for the body and soul. There's nothing here I want to own. . But I gave my love and it rolls like a wave.
The priest is prayin' for your soul. And the doctor for your heart. Someone tell me how to live. Now that we must live apart. Once we had a mother. But that's all over now.
Ten years ago on a cold dark night. There was someone killed 'neath the town hall lights. There were few at the scene but they all agree. That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.
(Rosanne Cash - Rodney Crowell). . Trouble when you're searching. And you ain't so very young. You don't fit into table talk. But you can't hold back your tongue.
I think, I understand. The reason you won't stay with me. You think a ring upon your hand. Will solve your insecurity. . So go ahead and play your games.
I say let us put man and a woman together. To find out which one is smarter. Some say man but I say no. The woman got the man de day should know. . And not me but the people they say.
A cold night and the wind keeps blowin' a cold heart here but no one knows it. I look at you and I see myself down that lonely road. A woman frozen and a man still on fire the crime of fear and the pain and desire.
