Maybe it's the movies, maybe it's the books. Maybe it's the government and all the other crooks. Maybe it's the drugs, maybe it's the parents. Maybe it's the gangs, or the colors that we're wearin'.
(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick/Tommy Simms). . You don't have to cry when I say good-bye, good-bye. You know I'll be coming back real soon. And when I do, you know.
(Gordon Kennedy/Phil Madeira). . Yesterday the odds were stacked in favor of my expectations. Flyin' above the rest, never fallin' from the nest. Tuesday came and went and I'm in a little situation.
(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick/Trisha Yearwood). . One light blinking off and on. Blood of life in this town is gone. Lost all its pieces but the pawn.
There's no more waiting. Holding out for love. You are my Godsend. That I have been forever dreaming of. My angel from above. . Heaven knows. I'm head over heels and it shows.
(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick/Tommy Simms). . It don't matter to the sun. If you go or if you stay. I know the sun is gonna rise. Shine down on another day.
(Tommy Simms). . With all of my heart, I know I could love you. But, with all of my soul, I'm driftin away. With all of my mind, I know you could save me from myself.
(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick). . They married on a fancy yacht out on the water. He knew she was young enough to be his daughter. There always questions in the heart of millionaires.
I never thought that I was good enough. To have the love of a woman like you. But you showed me I was man enough. With just a touch, in a way that only you could do.
Before you tell me how loud I can play my music. Before you tell me the way I should raise my kids. Before you try to tell me what to say. You might wanna think about it, yeah.
She caught me on the back porch once again. In the middle of a fight, we both knew I couldn't win. Then she came up from behind and took my glass. And she said, "Hold me instead and soon the urge will pass".
Well, you can have the truck and the stuff. Baby, you can have the house. Yeah, you and your lawyer and your new boyfriend. Can all sort it out. . Whats left of my pride and these two wheels are all I need.
I heard the door slam and I couldn't tell. Was it just the wind or was she mad again?. Ah hell, she's gettin' in her car. . I hollered, Baby is there somethin' wrong?.
Day 1, I stumbled through 'Hello' on 5th Avenue. Day 2, we grabbed a bite to eat and talked all afternoon. We caught a movie on day 14. And day 67 she said 'I love you' to me.
It's all the same. Only the names changed. And everyday. It seems we're wastin' away. . Another place. Where the faces are so cold. I drive all night.
I remember the summer I turned 16. And that old jalopy daddy gave to me. It had holes in the floor and just a 305. But I didnt care 'cause I could finally drive.
I'm blown away when I look at you while you look at me. 'Cause you see me so completely. I'm overwhelmed by the way it feels 'cause I know it's real. When you reach out to touch me.
Have you ever wondered what life would be like. If you'd only went left instead of taking that right. If you had waited just ten more minutes to leave the house.
Way Back home where the cypress grew. In a clapboard shack on the black bayou. Live a woman and a man that I call Mom and Dad. And Times were hard and times were tough.
