1.I Want A Man

(rick giles/tim nichols/gilles goddard)
(track 1 - time 4:16)

Well i know this guy
We have a real good time
I let him get a little close
Do i like him, yes, do i love him, no
We don't fight and all my friends say we look good together
But try as i might i just don't see me with him forever

I don't want a man i can live with
I want a love that leaves no room for doubt
I don't want a man i can live with
I want a man that i can't live without

Well i know this other guy
The kind that mamas like
He wears armani suits
He wants to marry me, he's got money to boot
Imagine that i'd have a life that's easy to get used to
Matter of fact, there's a real good reason i don't choose to

I don't want a man i can live with
I want a love that leaves no room for doubt
I don't want a man i can live with
I want a man that i can't live without

I don't want somebody
Just to have somebody
That's how i am
I'm that kind of girl
Even if it takes all the time in the world

I don't want a man i can live with
I want a love that leaves no room for doubt
I don't want a man i can live with
I want a man that i can't live without
I want a man that i can't live without

Well i know this guy
We have a real good time
And i know this other guy
He makes me feel real nice
And there's this guy i like
But do i love him, no
'cause i want a man
I want a man


2.Life Is So Good

(chris farren/deana carter)
(track 2 - time 3:59)

If i wanted it easy i'd a been gone by now
If i though it was simple i'd have figured it out
But this thing called love takes everything that i've got
I'm not sure what it is but i'm sure what it's not
'cause baby you and i got different ways of saying the same
thing 'cause

Love is hard from start to finish
And if you love you gotta put your whole heart in it
And if it's right you'll know in a minute
Doin' things you never thought you could
Love is hard, but baby life is good

We can say things that cut to the bone
We want to be together but we want to be alone
Sometimes it seems we're on different tracks
We might walk away but we'll always come back
Baby you and me got different ways of saying the same thing
We both know

Love is hard from start to finish
And if you love you gotta put your whole heart in it
And if it's right you'll know in a minute
Doin' things you never thought you could
Love is hard, but baby life is good

Oh, so good

Love is hard from start to finish
And if you love you gotta put your whole heart in it
And if it's right you'll know in a minute
Doin' things you never thought you could
Love is hard, but baby life is good

Love is hard
Life's so good
Love is hard
Life's so good
Love is hard
Life's so good
Love is hard
Life's so good


3.Angel

(sarah mclachlan)
(track 3 - time 4:22)

You spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For the break that will make it ok
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh, beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty, oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

So tired of the street life
And everywhere you turn
There's vulture and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting
Keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escape one last time
So much easier to believe
In this sweet madness
All the glorious sadness
Brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
Far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

In the arms of the angel


4.I Cry Real Tears

(linda thompson/reed vertelney)
(track 4 - time 4:25)

You ought to be ashamed of yourself
The way you talk down to me
Oh baby, didn't anybody ever teach you
To act more respectfully
I'm telling you
That i'm only human too
Don't you realize
Look my face
What do you see in my eyes
When a part of me just dies

I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears

You treat me like you think i'm made of stone
Like when i'm cut i don't bleed
Oh baby, don't you know that i'm just flesh and bone
So what do you want from me
I'm telling you
That i'm only human too
Don't you realize
Just look at my face
What do you see in my eyes
When a part of me just dies

I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears

There's something called the golden rule
Someday you'll wish you followed it more
You've been a fool
My love is truer than any love you will find
But i'm worth so much more and so is my time

I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears

I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks
And when it aches
My eyes cry real tears

Every little teardrop that falls from my eyes falls for you baby
You ought to be ashamed of yourself

(bob regan/jeff pennig)
(track 5 - time 3:24)

He's kinda cute and really sweet

6.You Could've Had Me

(eric silver/stephanie bentley)
(track 6 - time 3:45)

Saw you again last night at the sunset grill
But you didn't see me
You looked so happy with that friend you said was just a friend
Maybe you changed your mind
About all that space you needed desperately
Or maybe you lied and never meant it

One day you'll see
That you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You'll wake up all alone and be sorry

I'm spending lots of time reading
All those books that just sat on my shelf
Calling up friends who haven't heard from me in quite a while
I'm learning lots of things about life and love
And liking myself
Finally getting by without you

One day you'll see
That you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You'll wake up and notice something's missing
But i'll be free
And you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You could had me to yourself
All to yourself

What's done is done and life goes on
But it's such a shame that you couldn't see
It could've been you, it could've been you and me

One day you'll see
That you could've had me, could've had me baby
You'll wake up and notice something's missing
When you wake up i'll be free
And you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You could've had me to yourself

I saw you again last night at the sunset grill
But you didn't see me


7.Texas Ranger

(gary o'connor)
(track 7 - time 3:17)

Well he caught her doin' 90 at the top of a hill
He called out, 'get over, now who you tryin' to kill'
Oh she caught her reflection in a mirror on his face
In her k-mart collection of leather and lace
They followed the directions to the letter of the law
And in a turn of events she told him, 'up against the wall'
She took a look around and said, 'can't you feel the danger?'
Baby won't you be my texas ranger

Callin' help please
Won't somebody rescue me
I'll be around now, don't be a stranger
I just wanna be your texas ranger

He said my momma calls me sonny but you can call me ray
I bring love to justice, i'm in it for the game
With a black-belt in flirtation she put him to the test
So they made a reservation in the wild, wild west
And they heard him call as she fell into favor
Baby won't you be my texas ranger

Callin' help please
Lock me up and lose the key
Well the arms of the law getcha sooner or later
Baby won't you be my texas ranger

Oh save me texas
I want you to help me, help me
Damsel in distress
Oooh, i'm all out of breath
And i'm in a cold sweat, yeah

Callin' help please
Lock me up and lose the key
Gonna shoot out the lights, wake up the neighbors
Baby won't you be my texas ranger

Take me, take me, take me to texas baby
Won't you be my texas ranger
I just wanna be your texas ranger


8.He Can't Talk Without His Hands

(giselle brohman/jason barry)
(track 8 - time 4:54)

There's a little two-room house just outside of town
With a little picket fence and the blinds pulled down
A wife with two young kids
She sees them off to bed
As she waits for her husband to come home

Lately she's been doing a lot of thinking
About the arguments and why she's hurting
Is it worth the extra mile
To hang on for a little while
When she's had all the heartache she can stand
And her mama's words still echo in her head

Girl, he can't talk without his hands
What's made you stay this long i don't understand
If you leave now you might still have a chance
'cause girl, he can't talk without his hands

There's a little two-room house just a few miles down
The little girl's grown up and she's married now
Tears on a window pane
With a baby on the way
As she waits for her husband to come home

She calls her mama up on the telephone
She says it's getting dark and i'm all alone
Can we talk for a little while
Mama says what's the matter child
But she knows that her baby's been misled
And her mama's words still echo in her head

She said, girl, he can't talk without his hands
What's made you stay this long i don't understand
If you leave now you might still have a chance
'cause girl, he can't talk without his hands


9.So Gone

(beth hart/taylor rhodes/christopher ward)
(track 9 - time 3:10)

Some dreams have faded, some friends are gone
Most nights i find myself walking alone
I used to think i had it all figured out
I still wake up with my head full of doubt

I've been around and around and around again
I've been hangin' around and waitin' in vain
I've been kissed and kicked out in the light of the day
And sometimes i don't even know me
I'm so gone, i feel no shame
I'm tired of these losers tryin' to put out my flame
And i know that i don't belong
Don't look for me 'cause i'm so gone

Swept through the wreckage of all that i've been
You can't see the damage but you know what i mean
The misfit in 212 is singin' for free
What the radio plays don't mean nothin' to me

I've been around and around and around again
I've been hangin' around and waitin' in vain
I've been kissed and kicked out in the light of day
And sometimes i don't even know me

I'm so gone, i feel no shame
I'm tired of these losers tryin' to put out my flame
And i know that i don't belong
Don't look for me 'cause i'm so gone

Sometimes i don't even know
Sometimes i don't even care
Sometimes i don't want to know

So i'm leavin', i don't give a damn
There ain't nobody gonna kill who i am
I know that i don't belong
Don't look for me, i am so gone


10.Swept Away

(cathy majeski/john scott sherrill)
(track 10 - time 4:14)

We spent all night down by the riverside
Laughin' at nothing and talking too much
And the moonlight was so bright in your eyes
Before i knew it, i was falling in love

It was too cold to swim so we just lay there
On the bank, 'til the break of day
And though we never went in the water
Oh darling, we were swept away

And the river rolled and the night got cold
But you held me close and you warmed my soul

And we spent all night down by the riverside
Wonderin' how it happened so fast
And it sure did take us by surprise
When that morning sun it came up at last

It was too cold to swim so we just lay there
On the bank, 'til the break of day
And though we never went in the water
Deep down, we were swept away

And the river rolled and the night got cold
But you held me closed and you warmed my soul
And we spent all night down by the riverside

Oooh baby

It was too cold to swim so we just lay there
On the bank, 'til the break of day
And though we never went in the water
Oh darling, we were swept away
Though we never went in the water
We were swept away

We were swept away


11.True Love(Never Goes Out Of Style)

(beverley mahood/mark dineen)
(track 11 - time 3:49)

I've got a picture of them outside their college dorm
In clothes and hair they'd rather forget they'd ever worn
With their arms around each other when they first started dating
He looks like one of the monkees
She looks like marcia brady

Things may come and things may go
And some will linger for a while
But true love never goes out of style

And here's the happy couple in a wedding photograph
And lookin' at it now even they can't help but laugh
She's in a mini dress, platforms and thick eye shadow
The same shade as his baby blue tuxedo

'cause things may come and things may go
And some will linger for a while
And though some things change
One thing stays the same
True love never goes out of style
True love never goes out of style

Watchin' mom and dad growing older now together
Learning from them how to make love last forever

And today they celebrate their silver anniversary
They can't belive how many years have passed by so quickly
His hair's the only thing that's thinner
Hers is a different shade
But neither one of them have noticed any change

Things may come and things may go
And some will linger for a while
And though some things change
One thing stays the same
True love, true love
True love never goes out of style


12.If Not For Loving You

(steve diamond/michelle mccord)
(track 12 - time 3:26)

Couldn't see the colors of a southern sunrise
Didn't see the moonlight 'til shone in your eyes
You taught me to believe and gave me wings to fly

If not for loving you, i never would have known
How safe a heart can feel, how deep a love can go
If not for loving you, would've never had the chance
Of knowing what it is to open up and give
There's so much i'd have missed
If not for loving you

When i think how easy it would have been
To let you go instead of letting you in
Baby, i'm so thankful you're in my life

If not for loving you, i never would have known
How safe a heart can feel, how deep a love can go
If not for loving you, would've never had the chance
Of knowing what it is to open up and give
There's so much i'd have missed
If not for loving you

Seems like you've always been a part of me
I can't imagine how my life would be
If not for loving you

If not for loving you, would've never had the chance
Of knowing what it is to open up and give
There's so much i'd have missed
If not for loving you
If not for loving you
