I've had love and love's had me
I've been held and been set free
And I have lived enough to know
That you might stay or you might go
So here I am one more time
Call me brave call me blind
I'm gonna count to 3
I'm gonna hold my breath
Try not to be afraid
Tho it scares me half to death
I'm out here on a limb
Although I know that it might break
My heart is gonna want you anyway
And if this love has any chance at all
Someone's gotta be the first to fall
The best is just a touch away
We'll make forever day by day
It'd be a shame to let this go
How sad to think we'd never know
How the morning light would fall on us
After we make all night in love
I'm gonna count to 3
I'm gonna hold my breath
Try not to be afraid
Tho it scares me half to death
I'm out here on a limb
Although I know that it might break
My heart is gonna want you anyway
And if this love has any chance at all
Someone's gotta be the first to fall
So here I am one more time
Call me brave call me blind
I'm gonna count to 3
I'm gonna hold my breath
Try not to be afraid
Tho it scares me half to death
I'm out here on a limb
Although I know that it might break
My heart is gonna want you anyway
And if this love has any chance at all
Someone's gotta be the first to fall...
God And Me lyrics - Terri Clark
Sun's commin' up on a Sunday morning
I'm looking out the window at a beautiful view
Turn on the TV and somebody's talkin'
About the wrong, the right and the ulitmate truth
I listen for a minute, but my heart is somewhere else
'Cause I've got my own convictions
But I keep them to myself
[Chorus:]
When I feel the world around me
How can I not believe
If I'm high up on a mountain
Or down on my knees
It's just between God and me
Secrets I've been holdin'
Tears cried, nobody else sees
Sometimes I'm alone but I know
There's somebody watchin' over me
There's so much I'm afraid of
And I'm really not that strong
But there's one place I can go to
Where all fear is gone
[Chorus:]
When I feel the world around me
How can I not believe
If I'm high up on a mountain
Or down on my knees
It's just between God and me
Every picture's painted differently
Everybody's got a vision in their mind
That fills the heart with answeres
And the missing peace that we all hope to find
And this heart of mine
[Repeat chorus twice]
God and me
It's just between God and me
I'm looking out the window at a beautiful view
Turn on the TV and somebody's talkin'
About the wrong, the right and the ulitmate truth
I listen for a minute, but my heart is somewhere else
'Cause I've got my own convictions
But I keep them to myself
[Chorus:]
When I feel the world around me
How can I not believe
If I'm high up on a mountain
Or down on my knees
It's just between God and me
Secrets I've been holdin'
Tears cried, nobody else sees
Sometimes I'm alone but I know
There's somebody watchin' over me
There's so much I'm afraid of
And I'm really not that strong
But there's one place I can go to
Where all fear is gone
[Chorus:]
When I feel the world around me
How can I not believe
If I'm high up on a mountain
Or down on my knees
It's just between God and me
Every picture's painted differently
Everybody's got a vision in their mind
That fills the heart with answeres
And the missing peace that we all hope to find
And this heart of mine
[Repeat chorus twice]
God and me
It's just between God and me
No Fear lyrics - Terri Clark
I want a road stretching out before me
I want a radio in my ear
I want a full tank of absolution
No Fear
I want a rainstorm to pull me over
Then a sky that begins to clear
Towards the truest of destinations
No Fear
[Chorus:]
I used to hit every wall there was
I used to run away from love
All I ever wanted was right here
But I had to reach way down inside
I had to have faith I'd find
No Fear
I want the world to just keep on turning
I want the dawn in my rearview mirror
I want to hear my own voice singing
No Fear
And when I need two arms around me
And there's no one near
When I'm alone let the only sound be
No Fear
[Repeat Chorus]
I want peace, love, and understanding
A stogie and an ice-cold beer
Don't wanna live afraid of dying
I used to hit every wall there was
I used to run away from love
All I ever wanted was right here
But I had to reach way down inside
I used to stay up all night long
Wondering what I was doing wrong
All I ever needed was right here
But I had to reach way down inside
I had to have faith I'd find
No Fear
No Fear
No Fear
I want a radio in my ear
I want a full tank of absolution
No Fear
I want a rainstorm to pull me over
Then a sky that begins to clear
Towards the truest of destinations
No Fear
[Chorus:]
I used to hit every wall there was
I used to run away from love
All I ever wanted was right here
But I had to reach way down inside
I had to have faith I'd find
No Fear
I want the world to just keep on turning
I want the dawn in my rearview mirror
I want to hear my own voice singing
No Fear
And when I need two arms around me
And there's no one near
When I'm alone let the only sound be
No Fear
[Repeat Chorus]
I want peace, love, and understanding
A stogie and an ice-cold beer
Don't wanna live afraid of dying
I used to hit every wall there was
I used to run away from love
All I ever wanted was right here
But I had to reach way down inside
I used to stay up all night long
Wondering what I was doing wrong
All I ever needed was right here
But I had to reach way down inside
I had to have faith I'd find
No Fear
No Fear
No Fear
Sometimes Goodbye lyrics - Terri Clark
I've got an ice-cold cup of coffee
And a paper I haven't read
A canyon in my heart
And a hammer in my head
And a waitress with an empty stare
That looks right through me
I'm sitting at a table
And I'm balancing the salt
Weighing out my choices
Baby, It's nobodys fault
And I'm torn up by these voices
Talking to me
You say there's no good reason
For me to walk away
You say there's so much good between us
Who wouldn't want to stay
But how can I be with you
If deep down I believe I'll loose a part of me
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
I gotta find what my heart beats for
I've got a half a page of reasons
And a napkin full of tears
From trying to pull my spirit
Through the pocket of my fears
As the lunch croud emptys out
Into the city
And there may not be a way for me
To make you understand
I'll write down the words I'm feeling
And I'll leave it in your hands
But the memories of our love
I'm taking with me
You say there's no good reason
For me to walk away
You say we're meant to be together
And I'm making a mistake
But this emptiness inside me
Has brought me to this road and I have to let you go
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
I gotta find what my heart beats for
For the passion everlasting
For deepest dream
For a chance to love like that
There is no in between
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
I gotta find what my heart beats for
And a paper I haven't read
A canyon in my heart
And a hammer in my head
And a waitress with an empty stare
That looks right through me
I'm sitting at a table
And I'm balancing the salt
Weighing out my choices
Baby, It's nobodys fault
And I'm torn up by these voices
Talking to me
You say there's no good reason
For me to walk away
You say there's so much good between us
Who wouldn't want to stay
But how can I be with you
If deep down I believe I'll loose a part of me
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
I gotta find what my heart beats for
I've got a half a page of reasons
And a napkin full of tears
From trying to pull my spirit
Through the pocket of my fears
As the lunch croud emptys out
Into the city
And there may not be a way for me
To make you understand
I'll write down the words I'm feeling
And I'll leave it in your hands
But the memories of our love
I'm taking with me
You say there's no good reason
For me to walk away
You say we're meant to be together
And I'm making a mistake
But this emptiness inside me
Has brought me to this road and I have to let you go
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
I gotta find what my heart beats for
For the passion everlasting
For deepest dream
For a chance to love like that
There is no in between
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
I gotta find what my heart beats for
Take My Time lyrics - Terri Clark
Love is such a big rush
You wanna hurry it along
'Cause you can't get close enough
And I know it wouldn't feel wrong
But it's all right going slowly
Just fine getting to know me
I'll give you one thing you can't buy
Baby you can take my time
My time
Like a river flowing
We can roll on and on
Not knowing where we're going
Living in the moment before it's gone
'Cause it's all right going slowly
Just fine getting to know me
I'll give you one thing you can't buy
Baby you can take my time
I know what you want
I'll be here holding on
'Cause it's all right going slowly
Just fine getting to know me
I'll give you one thing you can't buy
Baby you can take my
Heart will be waiting
Baby you can take my time
My time
Going slowly
Getting to know me
You can take my time
My time
You wanna hurry it along
'Cause you can't get close enough
And I know it wouldn't feel wrong
But it's all right going slowly
Just fine getting to know me
I'll give you one thing you can't buy
Baby you can take my time
My time
Like a river flowing
We can roll on and on
Not knowing where we're going
Living in the moment before it's gone
'Cause it's all right going slowly
Just fine getting to know me
I'll give you one thing you can't buy
Baby you can take my time
I know what you want
I'll be here holding on
'Cause it's all right going slowly
Just fine getting to know me
I'll give you one thing you can't buy
Baby you can take my
Heart will be waiting
Baby you can take my time
My time
Going slowly
Getting to know me
You can take my time
My time
Empty lyrics - Terri Clark
Maybe its been a little too long,
Holding it in
Tryin' to be strong
It's funny the things we bottle up
Come streamin' out when you feel enough
There is a trust the cautious will lack,
Now that we touched there's no holdin back.
[CHORUS:]
I want to call out for love until I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul til I'm empty
Empty
ooooooooooooo
When only flesh and bone remain
I'll hold you close then start again
feeling but a quick release when the ghosts are gone
From inside of me
I've tried to fight it but what can I do?
There's something deeper that surrenders to you
[CHORUS:]
I want to call out for love til I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul til I'm empty
Empty
ooooooooooooooooo
When I touch you, when I hear you, how can I, can I, doubt when every time I'm near you.
[CHORUS:]
I want to call out for love til I can't breathe,
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see,
I want to pour out my soul tim I'm empty
Empty, Empty
Holding it in
Tryin' to be strong
It's funny the things we bottle up
Come streamin' out when you feel enough
There is a trust the cautious will lack,
Now that we touched there's no holdin back.
[CHORUS:]
I want to call out for love until I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul til I'm empty
Empty
ooooooooooooo
When only flesh and bone remain
I'll hold you close then start again
feeling but a quick release when the ghosts are gone
From inside of me
I've tried to fight it but what can I do?
There's something deeper that surrenders to you
[CHORUS:]
I want to call out for love til I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul til I'm empty
Empty
ooooooooooooooooo
When I touch you, when I hear you, how can I, can I, doubt when every time I'm near you.
[CHORUS:]
I want to call out for love til I can't breathe,
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see,
I want to pour out my soul tim I'm empty
Empty, Empty
Getting There lyrics - Terri Clark
Well, the sun sets in the west
But as fast as you go how would you know
You're a busy boy, I guess
Who just wants the gold at the end of the road
Think of all you miss
Passin' through like this
You want an answer as soon as you say a prayer
You want to land the moment you're in the air
Baby, the livin' is all in the gettin' there
Don't be the first in every line
Now and then you can be at the end
'Cause there's only so much time
And you can't get back every minute you spend
You're not even sure what you're runnin' for
You want an answer as soon as you say a prayer
You want to land the moment you're in the air
Baby, the livin' is all in the gettin' there
Think of all you miss
Passin' through like this
You want an answer as soon as you say a prayer
You want to land the moment you're in the air
Baby, the livin' is all in the gettin' there
The livin' is all in the gettin' there
Gettin' there...
But as fast as you go how would you know
You're a busy boy, I guess
Who just wants the gold at the end of the road
Think of all you miss
Passin' through like this
You want an answer as soon as you say a prayer
You want to land the moment you're in the air
Baby, the livin' is all in the gettin' there
Don't be the first in every line
Now and then you can be at the end
'Cause there's only so much time
And you can't get back every minute you spend
You're not even sure what you're runnin' for
You want an answer as soon as you say a prayer
You want to land the moment you're in the air
Baby, the livin' is all in the gettin' there
Think of all you miss
Passin' through like this
You want an answer as soon as you say a prayer
You want to land the moment you're in the air
Baby, the livin' is all in the gettin' there
The livin' is all in the gettin' there
Gettin' there...
Easy From Now On lyrics - Terri Clark
There he goes
gone again
same ol' storys gotta come to an end
loving him was a one way street
but I'm gettin off where the crossroads meet
Quarter moon in a ten-cent town
time for me to lay my heartcahes down
Saturday night, I'm gonna make myself a name.
take a moth of Sundays to try and explain,
[Chorus:]
Its gonna be easy to fill the heart of a thirsty woman
harder to kill the ghost of a no-good man
I'll be ridin high in a fandangled sky
it's gonna be easy from now on
Raw as the wind
clean as bone
soft to the touch when he takes me home
when the morning comes ad it's time for me to leave...
don't worry bout me cos I got a wils card up my sleeve
[Repeat chorus]
gone again
same ol' storys gotta come to an end

A Little Gasoline lyrics - Terri Clark
Throwing pictures out the window
Scattered by the way the wind blows
Bye Bye Baby , that's the last I'll see of you
Shoebox full of old love letters
I'll tear each one till I feel better
And I won't look back, cause I don't like the view
[Chorus:]
What my heart needs now is rest
So I'm packing up and I'm headed west
My mind's made up, I'll put it to the test
Pushing myself and this old maching
Burning fumes and what's left of my dreams
Let 'em go cause I don't need no strings
Just give me a road and a Little Gasoline
We talked in circles 'til the words ran out
And it all came down to an angry shout
Before I knew it I was in third gear and gone
Well this had been coming for a long, long time
If I said I'm sorry, well I'd be lying
If you think I'll never make it, well you'd be wrong
[Chorus: (Repeat twice)]
What my heart needs now is rest
So I'm packing up and I'm headed west
My mind's made up, I'll put it to the test
Pushing myself and this old machine
Burning fumes and what's left of my dreams
Let 'em go cause I don't need no strings
Just give me a road and a Little Gasoline
Just give me a road and a Little Gasoline.
Scattered by the way the wind blows
Bye Bye Baby , that's the last I'll see of you
Shoebox full of old love letters
I'll tear each one till I feel better
And I won't look back, cause I don't like the view
[Chorus:]
What my heart needs now is rest
So I'm packing up and I'm headed west
My mind's made up, I'll put it to the test
Pushing myself and this old maching
Burning fumes and what's left of my dreams
Let 'em go cause I don't need no strings
Just give me a road and a Little Gasoline
We talked in circles 'til the words ran out
And it all came down to an angry shout
Before I knew it I was in third gear and gone
Well this had been coming for a long, long time
If I said I'm sorry, well I'd be lying
If you think I'll never make it, well you'd be wrong
[Chorus: (Repeat twice)]
What my heart needs now is rest
So I'm packing up and I'm headed west
My mind's made up, I'll put it to the test
Pushing myself and this old machine
Burning fumes and what's left of my dreams
Let 'em go cause I don't need no strings
Just give me a road and a Little Gasoline
Just give me a road and a Little Gasoline.
Last Thing I Wanted lyrics - Terri Clark
Last thing I wanted was
Someone who wants me so much
I don't like nobody leaning on me
Last thing I needed was
Somebody hanging around because
In their eyes I am something to see
Like a hole in my head, like a rock in my shoe
Like an ache in my heart when I think of you
Last thing I wanted
Last thing I wanted was you
Last thing I thought I'd do
Was open my heart to you
I got good reasons for keeping it closed
Last place I thought I'd be
Was here with you next to me
'Cause I'm used to sleeping alone
Like a hole in my head, like a rock in my shoe
Like an ache in my heart when I think of you
Last thing I wanted
Last thing I wanted was you
Sometimes what we want
Ain't what we need, maybe
Baby I need you
Like a hole in my head, like a rock in my shoe
Like an ache in my heart when I think of you
Last thing I wanted
Last thing I wanted was you...
To Tell You Everything lyrics - Terri Clark
All this running nowhere fast
All these faces that I pass
All these souls that don't reach out
Leave me feeling so without
I think you got here just in time
I think it's meant to be
And I'm ready to do anything
I want to tell you everything
Every nightmare, every dream
Every fear I've ever had
All the good and all the bad
All the secrets that I've kept
My mistakes and my regrets
The relief that it would bring
Just to tell you everything
Just to be all you need
When you need somebody there
Just to let go and still know
You wont go anywhere
Just to find myself again
Tell you who I've always been
Just to feel my spirit rise
When I look into your eyes
And see what I've been dying for
Baby I want nothing more
Than these songs I'm ganna sing
When I tell you everything
Just to be all you need
When you need somebody there
Just to let go and still know
You wont go anywhere
All this loneliness that urled
All the years that had me fooled
Now they seem to slip away
When you turn to me and say
I think you got here just in time
I think we're going to be just fine
And it would be enough for me
Just to tell you everything
Baby I'd do anything
I want to tell you everything
All these faces that I pass
All these souls that don't reach out
Leave me feeling so without
I think you got here just in time
I think it's meant to be
And I'm ready to do anything
I want to tell you everything
Every nightmare, every dream
Every fear I've ever had
All the good and all the bad
All the secrets that I've kept
My mistakes and my regrets
The relief that it would bring
Just to tell you everything
Just to be all you need
When you need somebody there
Just to let go and still know
You wont go anywhere
Just to find myself again
Tell you who I've always been
Just to feel my spirit rise
When I look into your eyes
And see what I've been dying for
Baby I want nothing more
Than these songs I'm ganna sing
When I tell you everything
Just to be all you need
When you need somebody there
Just to let go and still know
You wont go anywhere
All this loneliness that urled
All the years that had me fooled
Now they seem to slip away
When you turn to me and say
I think you got here just in time
I think we're going to be just fine
And it would be enough for me
Just to tell you everything
Baby I'd do anything
I want to tell you everything
The Real Thing lyrics - Terri Clark
I've been looking for a way to fill this empty place
With everything from poetry to love in cyberspace
I contemplate my future, I analyze my past
I twist myself up like a pretzel in my yoga class
I find attraction in small distractions
It's a piece that I've been missing
A voice when I really listen
A groove that's going to make me sing
A feeling only love can bring
I'm ready for the real thing
Meditating
Medicating, looking for a fix
Now I'm getting to the bottom of my bag of tricks
Trying to catch a break with each ticking of the clock
Searching for the prize inside my cracker jack box
Something to save me
From all this waiting
It's a piece that I've been missing
A voice when I really listen
A groove that's going to make me sing
A feeling only love can bring
I'm ready for the real thing
I've looked around and I've discovered
Nothing can touch me like a lover
It's a piece that I've been missing
A voice when I really listen
A groove that's going to make me sing
A feeling only love can bring
I'm ready for the real thing
With everything from poetry to love in cyberspace
I contemplate my future, I analyze my past
I twist myself up like a pretzel in my yoga class
I find attraction in small distractions
It's a piece that I've been missing
A voice when I really listen
A groove that's going to make me sing
A feeling only love can bring
I'm ready for the real thing
Meditating
Medicating, looking for a fix
Now I'm getting to the bottom of my bag of tricks
Trying to catch a break with each ticking of the clock
Searching for the prize inside my cracker jack box
Something to save me
From all this waiting
It's a piece that I've been missing
A voice when I really listen
A groove that's going to make me sing
A feeling only love can bring
I'm ready for the real thing
I've looked around and I've discovered
Nothing can touch me like a lover
It's a piece that I've been missing
A voice when I really listen
A groove that's going to make me sing
A feeling only love can bring
I'm ready for the real thing
Midnight's Gone lyrics - Terri Clark
We got our first McDonalds
and it made the headline news,
in a town where no-one locks their door at night
all the lights are flashing yellow
we just roll right through
and there's not a super store in sight
but there's more to life
I told myself I'd say goodbye by the time the clock struck 12
[CHORUS:]
But I can't pull the trigger on that changin world out there
with all these dream I can't believe I'm still standin here
It's time to face the fact I'm not the rebel that I thought
cause midnights gone
but I'm not
Everyone I run into has known me all my life
there are no secrets you can call your own
since the age of 17 I faced the morning light,
sayin this day is the day I'm gonna go
all I have to do,
is drive away
but the things that make me crazy always make me stay
[REPEAT CHORUS 2X]
and it made the headline news,
in a town where no-one locks their door at night
all the lights are flashing yellow
we just roll right through
and there's not a super store in sight
but there's more to life

[CHORUS:]
But I can't pull the trigger on that changin world out there
with all these dream I can't believe I'm still standin here

Good Mother lyrics - Terri Clark
I've got money in my pocket,
I like the colour of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here.
Feet on ground, heart in hand,
Facing forward be yourself!
I've never wanted anything,
Oh, I've never wanted anything so bad.
Cardboard masks of all the people I've been,
Thrown out with all the rusted, tangled, worn-out miseries
You could say I'm hard to hold
But if you knew me you'd know
I've got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry.
Feet on ground, heart in hand,
Facing forward be yourself
I've never wanted anything,
Oh I've never wanted anything so bad.
I've got money in my pocket
I like the colour of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here
Feet on ground, heart in hand
Facing forward be yourself
Heart in hand, feet on ground
Facing forward be yourself
Just be yourself.
Just be yourself!..
I like the colour of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here.
Feet on ground, heart in hand,
Facing forward be yourself!
I've never wanted anything,
Oh, I've never wanted anything so bad.
Cardboard masks of all the people I've been,
Thrown out with all the rusted, tangled, worn-out miseries
You could say I'm hard to hold
But if you knew me you'd know
I've got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry.
Feet on ground, heart in hand,
Facing forward be yourself
I've never wanted anything,
Oh I've never wanted anything so bad.
I've got money in my pocket
I like the colour of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here
Feet on ground, heart in hand
Facing forward be yourself
Heart in hand, feet on ground
Facing forward be yourself
Just be yourself.
Just be yourself!..
I'm Alright lyrics - Terri Clark
After all was said and done
There was nothing left to do
The hardest mile I ever walked
Was the one I walked away from you
So maybe I'm a little ragged around the edges
And I've been keeping a little more to myself these days but
[Chorus]
I'm alright
Shot down but I'm still standing
I'm alright
A little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright
Still shaky from the landing
I'm alright, after all
You know it's really not that bad
No matter how bad it might feel
Cause there ain't nothing time won't fix
This ain't nothing that some time won't heal
So maybe I've been walking a little wounded
I move a little bit slower now but that's okay cause...
[Chorus]
I'm alright
Shot down but I'm still standing
I'm alright
A little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright
Still shaky from the landing
I'm alright, after all
And every now and then I think about you
Oh, every now and then I cross the line
[Chorus]
I'm alright
Shot down but I'm still standing
I'- alright
A little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright
Still shaky from the landing
I'm alright, after all
I'm alright, after all
There was nothing left to do
The hardest mile I ever walked
Was the one I walked away from you
So maybe I'm a little ragged around the edges
And I've been keeping a little more to myself these days but
[Chorus]
I'm alright
Shot down but I'm still standing
I'm alright
A little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright
Still shaky from the landing
I'm alright, after all
You know it's really not that bad
No matter how bad it might feel
Cause there ain't nothing time won't fix
This ain't nothing that some time won't heal
So maybe I've been walking a little wounded
I move a little bit slower now but that's okay cause...
[Chorus]
I'm alright
Shot down but I'm still standing
I'm alright
A little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright
Still shaky from the landing
I'm alright, after all
And every now and then I think about you
Oh, every now and then I cross the line
[Chorus]
I'm alright
Shot down but I'm still standing
I'- alright
A little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright
Still shaky from the landing
I'm alright, after all
I'm alright, after all
Now That I Found You lyrics - Terri Clark
How can I believe
That my heart would find someone like you
You see me, the real me
No in bewteens, I had nowhere to hide
You took away the walls around me
Made me feel safe to share my truth.
I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that I found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that I found you.
Now that I found you.
I do believe we're meant to be
Our chemistry will last forever
And through the years
We'll see some tears
We'll conquer fears
And together we will grow
Looking in your eyes
They tell me
I no longer have to feel alone.
I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that I found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that I found you.
Now that I found you.
You see me, the real me
You believe in me.
I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that I found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that I found you.
Now that I found you...
That my heart would find someone like you
You see me, the real me
No in bewteens, I had nowhere to hide
You took away the walls around me
Made me feel safe to share my truth.
I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that I found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that I found you.
Now that I found you.
I do believe we're meant to be
Our chemistry will last forever
And through the years
We'll see some tears
We'll conquer fears
And together we will grow
Looking in your eyes
They tell me
I no longer have to feel alone.
I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that I found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that I found you.
Now that I found you.
You see me, the real me
You believe in me.
I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that I found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that I found you.
Now that I found you...
Everytime I Cry lyrics - Terri Clark
You call and wake me up, the way you always do
Say you miss me and you're sorry, deja vu
You push the button in the heart you know so well
The wall starts coming down then I remind myself
Everytime I think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
If only promises could just erase the past
I could open up my heart enough to take you back
But we've been down that road
Time and time again
I've learned the hard way how the story always ends
Everytime I think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
Everytime I think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
Say you miss me and you're sorry, deja vu
You push the button in the heart you know so well
The wall starts coming down then I remind myself
Everytime I think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
If only promises could just erase the past
I could open up my heart enough to take you back
But we've been down that road
Time and time again
I've learned the hard way how the story always ends
Everytime I think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
Everytime I think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
Everytime I do
Everytime you lie
Everytime I cry
That's How I Feel lyrics - Terri Clark
What's goin' on in your head
You haven't heard a word I've said
I think we need to talk
Cause you turn your emotions off
And that's something I don't understand
Cause that's how I feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how I feel
You think the silence buys you time
To make things clearer in your mind
But I can't live in the dark
Not knowing who you are
So tell me how you feel inside
Cause that's how I feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how I feel
That's how I get to know you
If you'll only let it go
You'll find its not as scary as it seems
Cause that's how I feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
You haven't heard a word I've said
I think we need to talk
Cause you turn your emotions off
And that's something I don't understand
Cause that's how I feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how I feel
You think the silence buys you time
To make things clearer in your mind
But I can't live in the dark
Not knowing who you are
So tell me how you feel inside
Cause that's how I feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how I feel
That's how I get to know you
If you'll only let it go
You'll find its not as scary as it seems
Cause that's how I feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
That's how I feel
You're Easy On The Eyes lyrics - Terri Clark
Shoulda known it was you knocking on my door
At half past a heartache at quarter to four
Were you starting to worry I was finally getting over you
I almost forgot you looked so fine
If you told me some lies, it would be like old times
Just getting to see you is almost worth the things you do.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
I got to admit to you got a smile
That really reeled me in for awhile
But it ain't funny, honey, what you put me through
So why don't you send me your photograph
It'd hurt a lot less than taking you back
Then I could still have my favorite part of you.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
'Cause you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
Now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
Now I realize
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart...
At half past a heartache at quarter to four
Were you starting to worry I was finally getting over you
I almost forgot you looked so fine
If you told me some lies, it would be like old times
Just getting to see you is almost worth the things you do.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
I got to admit to you got a smile
That really reeled me in for awhile
But it ain't funny, honey, what you put me through
So why don't you send me your photograph
It'd hurt a lot less than taking you back
Then I could still have my favorite part of you.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
'Cause you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
'Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way they are
Better say goodbye
Before this goes too far
Now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart.
Now I realize
You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart...
Getting Even With The Blues lyrics - Terri Clark
I think I'm gonna smile for a while
Pull the curtain back and let some moonlight in
Gossip on the phone with my old friends
Like I used to do
I'm gonna put your memory away
Show this achin in my heart a thing or two
Cause tonight I'm getting even with the blues
That lonely feelings had it's way
Ever since the day I heard you say goodbye
The hurting thinks its found a home
But I'm gonna let it know it ain't welcome here tonight
Tomorrow that old cloud may come around
And there won't be anything that I can do
But tonight I'm getting even with the blues
That lonely feelings had it's way
Ever since the day I heard you say goodbye
The hurting thinks its found a home
But I'm gonna let it know it ain't welcome here tonight
Tomorrow that old cloud may come around
And there won't be anything that I can do
But tonight I'm getting even with the blues
Oh, tonight I'm getting even with the blues
Pull the curtain back and let some moonlight in
Gossip on the phone with my old friends
Like I used to do
I'm gonna put your memory away
Show this achin in my heart a thing or two
Cause tonight I'm getting even with the blues
That lonely feelings had it's way
Ever since the day I heard you say goodbye
The hurting thinks its found a home
But I'm gonna let it know it ain't welcome here tonight
Tomorrow that old cloud may come around
And there won't be anything that I can do
But tonight I'm getting even with the blues
That lonely feelings had it's way
Ever since the day I heard you say goodbye
The hurting thinks its found a home
But I'm gonna let it know it ain't welcome here tonight
Tomorrow that old cloud may come around
And there won't be anything that I can do
But tonight I'm getting even with the blues
Oh, tonight I'm getting even with the blues
Till I Get There lyrics - Terri Clark
There's a place I'm going to
Where I'll be over you
And I'm gonna go till I get there
Long as the road don't run out
Long as my heart don't let me down
I'll keep the wheels turning 'round
Till I get there
I don't know when I don't know how
But I'm finding my freedome
And that's somewhere I've never gone
Through these tears, I see now
It's gonna take leavin'
For me to know where I belong
There's a place I'm going to
Where I'll be over you
And I'm gonna go till I get there
Long as the road don't run out
Long as my heart don't let me down
I'll keep the wheels turning 'round
Till I get there
It's just beyond the edge of my sorrow
I'll turn the key and I'll be on my way
With the help of my old friend tomorrow
I'm gonna put a million miles on yesterday
There's a place I'm going to
Where I'll be over you
And I'm gonna go till I get there
Long as the road don't run out
Long as my heart don't let me down
I'll keep the wheels turning 'round
Till I get there
Where I'll be over you
And I'm gonna go till I get there
Long as the road don't run out
Long as my heart don't let me down
I'll keep the wheels turning 'round
Till I get there
I don't know when I don't know how
But I'm finding my freedome
And that's somewhere I've never gone
Through these tears, I see now
It's gonna take leavin'
For me to know where I belong
There's a place I'm going to
Where I'll be over you
And I'm gonna go till I get there
Long as the road don't run out
Long as my heart don't let me down
I'll keep the wheels turning 'round
Till I get there
It's just beyond the edge of my sorrow
I'll turn the key and I'll be on my way
With the help of my old friend tomorrow
I'm gonna put a million miles on yesterday
There's a place I'm going to
Where I'll be over you
And I'm gonna go till I get there
Long as the road don't run out
Long as my heart don't let me down
I'll keep the wheels turning 'round
Till I get there
Not Getting Over You lyrics - Terri Clark
I woke up at three a.m.
And stumbled in the dark
I don't sleep much anyway
Since we've been apart
But that's just one of many things
I've adjusted to so well
Cause I surrendered long ago
And now finally I can tell
I'm getting used to
Not getting over you
Not wondering how to shake
A hurt that won't go away
Not knowing where to turn
I something I thought I'd never learn
It's really nothing new
I'm just getting used to not getting over you
I head down highway40
Past the place we used to go
I don't stop to cry anymore
I just drive by real slow
And I don't feel the dagger
When somebody speaks your name
I guess that I'm just growing more
Accustomed to the pain
I'm getting used to
Not getting over you
Not wondering how to shake
A hurt that won't go away
Not knowing where to turn
I something I thought I'd never learn
It's really nothing new
I'm just getting used to not getting over you
Not knowing where to turn
Is something I thought I'd never learn
It's really nothing new
I'm just getting used to not getting over
A feeling that I can't lose
I'm just getting used to not getting over you
And stumbled in the dark
I don't sleep much anyway
Since we've been apart
But that's just one of many things
I've adjusted to so well
Cause I surrendered long ago
And now finally I can tell
I'm getting used to
Not getting over you
Not wondering how to shake
A hurt that won't go away
Not knowing where to turn
I something I thought I'd never learn
It's really nothing new
I'm just getting used to not getting over you
I head down highway40
Past the place we used to go
I don't stop to cry anymore
I just drive by real slow
And I don't feel the dagger
When somebody speaks your name
I guess that I'm just growing more
Accustomed to the pain
I'm getting used to
Not getting over you
Not wondering how to shake
A hurt that won't go away
Not knowing where to turn
I something I thought I'd never learn
It's really nothing new
I'm just getting used to not getting over you
Not knowing where to turn
Is something I thought I'd never learn
It's really nothing new
I'm just getting used to not getting over
A feeling that I can't lose
I'm just getting used to not getting over you
This Ole Heart lyrics - Terri Clark
This ole heart was made like a train
But this ole heart is flesh and blood
Gets in trouble when it cares too much
Keeps it hangin' on when it oughta give up
On something that's past
I wish it had wheels and I wish it had wings
Cause I could sure use just one of those things
Then this danged ole fallin' out love
Wouldn't hurt so bad
But this ole heart ain't made like that
If this ole heart was like an ole tin roof
Beaten by the rain, weathered and used
A fresh coat of paint would make it new
If this ole heart was lik an ole tin roof
But this ole heart is felsh and blood
Gets in trouble when it cares too much
Keeps it hangin' on when it oughta give up
On something that's past
I wish it had wheels and I wish it had wings
Cause I could sure use just one of those things
Then this danged ole fallin' out love
Wouldn't hurt so bad
But this ole heart ain't made like that
But this ole heart is flesh and blood
Gets in trouble when it cares too much
Keeps it hangin' on when it oughta give up
On something that's past
I wish it had wheels and I wish it had wings
Cause I could sure use just one of those things
Then this danged ole fallin' out love
Wouldn't hurt so bad
But this ole heart ain't made like that
If this ole heart was like an ole tin roof
Beaten by the rain, weathered and used
A fresh coat of paint would make it new
If this ole heart was lik an ole tin roof
But this ole heart is felsh and blood
Gets in trouble when it cares too much
Keeps it hangin' on when it oughta give up
On something that's past
I wish it had wheels and I wish it had wings
Cause I could sure use just one of those things
Then this danged ole fallin' out love
Wouldn't hurt so bad
But this ole heart ain't made like that
Cure For The Common Heartache lyrics - Terri Clark
This morning I'm aching all over
Can't eat, can't sleep, can't rest
Oh I need to go see a doctor
For this achin down deep in my chest
Is there a cure
For the common Heartache
An unknown prescription
Any loser can take
I'd be the first to become addicted
If there's a cure
For the common heartache
I know right where I got it
This sickness that's got me laid up
I don't have the strength now to fight it
This old condition called love
Is there a cure
For the common Heartache
An unknown prescription
Any loser can take
I'd be the first to become addicted
If there's a cure
For the common heartache
Is there a cure
For the Common Heartache
Can't eat, can't sleep, can't rest
Oh I need to go see a doctor
For this achin down deep in my chest
Is there a cure
For the common Heartache
An unknown prescription
Any loser can take
I'd be the first to become addicted
If there's a cure

This old condition called love
Is there a cure
For the common Heartache
An unknown prescription
Any loser can take
I'd be the first to become addicted
If there's a cure
For the common heartache

Me Not Loving You lyrics - Terri Clark
Do you get the feeling
Even when you're not alone
There's a memory
Making itself at home
And it don't let loose no matter what you do
Well thats me not loving you
Lately are you sleeping
And you got the window closed
But there's a crack somewhere
Cause you can feel the cold wind blow
And it gets to you no matter what you do
That's me not loving you
Didn't I tell you when you left
You never would forget the love you could have kept
Now everynight in your empty room
The only thing you're holding is the truth
If you hear a heartbeat
Where there really should be two
That's me not loving you
When all you hear is silence
Then you'll know the voice is mine
If the phone don't ring
And the bell don't chime
And that someone new, you never get used to
Well, that's me not loving you
Didn't I tell you when you left
You never would forget the love you could have kept
Now everynight in your empty room
The only thing you're holding is the truth
If you hear a heartbeat
Where there really should be two
That's me not loving you
Even when you're not alone
There's a memory
Making itself at home
And it don't let loose no matter what you do
Well thats me not loving you
Lately are you sleeping
And you got the window closed
But there's a crack somewhere
Cause you can feel the cold wind blow
And it gets to you no matter what you do
That's me not loving you
Didn't I tell you when you left
You never would forget the love you could have kept
Now everynight in your empty room
The only thing you're holding is the truth
If you hear a heartbeat
Where there really should be two
That's me not loving you
When all you hear is silence
Then you'll know the voice is mine
If the phone don't ring
And the bell don't chime
And that someone new, you never get used to
Well, that's me not loving you
Didn't I tell you when you left
You never would forget the love you could have kept
Now everynight in your empty room
The only thing you're holding is the truth
If you hear a heartbeat
Where there really should be two
That's me not loving you
Unsung Hero lyrics - Terri Clark
You sit in the shadows
You don't complain or criticize
And while the world may see me as a fool
They're not looking through your eyes
No questions asked, you're there when I need you
With a love that inspires me to be everything you deserve
'Cause you're my unsung hero
And I know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day you continue to amaze me
Now I sing this song of love for you
While others long to steal the spotlight
You work your magic quietly
Cause you're not in it for the glory
The love you give comes naturally
I may not have much, but what I have I give to you
And this song that I sing is my gift
And I swear that I mean every word
'Cause you're my unsung hero
And I know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day you continue to amaze me
Now I sing this song of love for you
'Cause you're my unsung hero
And I know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day you continue to amaze me
Now I sing this song of love for you
Now I sing this song of love
For you
You don't complain or criticize
And while the world may see me as a fool
They're not looking through your eyes
No questions asked, you're there when I need you
With a love that inspires me to be everything you deserve
'Cause you're my unsung hero
And I know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day you continue to amaze me
Now I sing this song of love for you
While others long to steal the spotlight
You work your magic quietly
Cause you're not in it for the glory
The love you give comes naturally
I may not have much, but what I have I give to you
And this song that I sing is my gift
And I swear that I mean every word
'Cause you're my unsung hero
And I know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day you continue to amaze me
Now I sing this song of love for you
'Cause you're my unsung hero
And I know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day you continue to amaze me
Now I sing this song of love for you
Now I sing this song of love
For you
Emotional Girl lyrics - Terri Clark
I've been looking at you looking me
Bet you're thinking that what you get
Is what you see
But underneath this cool exterior
A raging river flows
So before you get any nearer
I better let you know.
[Chorus:]
I'm an emotional girl
I can't help myself
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I do both and I don't know why
I got a Passionate heart
And that's just the way things are
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl.
I like music that's loud and lights down low
I like driving my car too fast
And dancing slow
Some folks may say I'm too extreme
'Cause I can't stop once I start
But I never could do anything
With half my heart.
[Chorus:]
I'm an emotional girl
I can't help myself
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I do both and I don't know why
I got a Passionate heart
And that's just the way things are
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl.
[Instrumental]
[Chorus:]
I'm an emotional girl
I can't help myself
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I do both and I don't know why
I got a Passionate heart
And that's just the way things are
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl.
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl...
Bet you're thinking that what you get
Is what you see
But underneath this cool exterior
A raging river flows
So before you get any nearer
I better let you know.
[Chorus:]
I'm an emotional girl
I can't help myself
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I do both and I don't know why
I got a Passionate heart
And that's just the way things are
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl.
I like music that's loud and lights down low
I like driving my car too fast
And dancing slow
Some folks may say I'm too extreme
'Cause I can't stop once I start
But I never could do anything
With half my heart.
[Chorus:]
I'm an emotional girl
I can't help myself
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I do both and I don't know why
I got a Passionate heart
And that's just the way things are
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl.
[Instrumental]
[Chorus:]
I'm an emotional girl
I can't help myself
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I do both and I don't know why
I got a Passionate heart
And that's just the way things are
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl.
You and me could give it a whirl
But I'm warning you, boy
I'm an emotional girl...
Poor, Poor Pitiful Me lyrics - Terri Clark
Well, I lay my head on the railroad track
Waitin' on the "double e"
But the train don't run through here no more
Poor, poor pitiful me!
[Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Oh, these boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me!
Woe, woe is me!
Well, I met a man out in Hollywood
And I ain't namin' names
But he really worked me over good
Just like Jesse James
Yes, he really worked me over good
He was a credit to his gender
He put me through some changes
Lord, sorta like a waring blender
[Repeat Chorus]
Well, I met a boy in the Vieux-Carres
Down in Yokahoma
He picked me up and he threw me down
Sayin', "please don't hurt me, mama"
[Repeat Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Poor, poor pitiful me...
Waitin' on the "double e"
But the train don't run through here no more
Poor, poor pitiful me!
[Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Oh, these boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me!
Woe, woe is me!
Well, I met a man out in Hollywood
And I ain't namin' names
But he really worked me over good
Just like Jesse James
Yes, he really worked me over good
He was a credit to his gender
He put me through some changes
Lord, sorta like a waring blender
[Repeat Chorus]
Well, I met a boy in the Vieux-Carres
Down in Yokahoma
He picked me up and he threw me down
Sayin', "please don't hurt me, mama"
[Repeat Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Poor, poor pitiful me...
Just The Same lyrics - Terri Clark
You could've walked a long back road,
or a lonely strech of beach,
you could have sat there
on a park bench,a sunday
paper at your feet.
If you'd been waiting for a taxi
or at a bus stop in the rain,
I would've found you,I would've found you,
Just The Same
You know you could've been a
gambler,whose luck was running low,
Or just another drifter without
a single place to go,
you could have been a broken dreamer
without a penny to your name.
I would've loved you,I would've loved you,
Just The Same
No it really didnt matter,
who who'd been or
what you'd done.Where we met
or when It happened you'd still be the one
There's no way to know the future
But one thing will never change,
I'm gonna love you,I'm gonna love you,
Just The Same
I'm gonna love you,I'm gonna love you
Just The Same
or a lonely strech of beach,
you could have sat there
on a park bench,a sunday
paper at your feet.
If you'd been waiting for a taxi
or at a bus stop in the rain,
I would've found you,I would've found you,
Just The Same
You know you could've been a
gambler,whose luck was running low,
Or just another drifter without
a single place to go,
you could have been a broken dreamer
without a penny to your name.
I would've loved you,I would've loved you,
Just The Same
No it really didnt matter,
who who'd been or
what you'd done.Where we met
or when It happened you'd still be the one
There's no way to know the future
But one thing will never change,
I'm gonna love you,I'm gonna love you,
Just The Same
I'm gonna love you,I'm gonna love you
Just The Same
Something In The Water lyrics - Terri Clark
Somebody's restless
She feels second best
And the girl across town
Is thinking about a permanent change
And the lady living next door
Won't take it anymore
There's a whole lot of love
Gone wrong going 'round these days
Must be something in the water
Something in the air
'Cause every girl I talk to
Is going through the same thing
I'm going through here
Must be something in the teardrops
They've been falling too long
Must be something in the water
Making me wanna move on
I understand the heartache
It leaves such a bitter taste
Makes you go crazy
Thirsty for something else
The way that it used to be
Now ain't enough for me
'Cause the love I ain't getting
Is like drinking from a dry well
Must be something in the water
Something in the air
'Cause every girl I talk to
Is going through the same thing
I'm going through here
Must be something in the teardrops
They've been falling too long
Must be something in the water
Making me wanna move on
Must be something in the water
Something in the air
'Cause every girl I talk to
Is going through the same thing
I'm going through here
Must be something in the teardrops
They've been falling too long
Must be something in the water
Making me wanna move on
She feels second best
And the girl across town
Is thinking about a permanent change
And the lady living next door
Won't take it anymore
There's a whole lot of love
Gone wrong going 'round these days
Must be something in the water
Something in the air
'Cause every girl I talk to
Is going through the same thing
I'm going through here
Must be something in the teardrops
They've been falling too long
Must be something in the water
Making me wanna move on
I understand the heartache
It leaves such a bitter taste
Makes you go crazy
Thirsty for something else
The way that it used to be
Now ain't enough for me
'Cause the love I ain't getting
Is like drinking from a dry well
Must be something in the water
Something in the air
'Cause every girl I talk to
Is going through the same thing
I'm going through here
Must be something in the teardrops
They've been falling too long
Must be something in the water
Making me wanna move on
Must be something in the water
Something in the air
'Cause every girl I talk to
Is going through the same thing
I'm going through here
Must be something in the teardrops
They've been falling too long
Must be something in the water
Making me wanna move on
Neon Flame lyrics - Terri Clark
Don't worry baby
About that man at the bar I just talked to
It's been so long I can't remember his name
Well he's just somebody
Who could never make me feel the way that you do
He's just an old Neon Flame
[Chorus:]
(Well) He shines bright on a friday night
But he burns out about daylight
And he's always hanging where the jukeboxplays
He ain't nothing to me
Just a dance or two before you even knew me
He's Just an old Neon Flame
Give me a quarter
And I'll pick a number that's a slow one
And tonight we'll start a fire we can't contain
His heart's a cold one
And I think I've been around long enough to know
He's just an old Neon Flame
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh, honey, he's just an old Neon Flame
About that man at the bar I just talked to
It's been so long I can't remember his name
Well he's just somebody
Who could never make me feel the way that you do
He's just an old Neon Flame
[Chorus:]
(Well) He shines bright on a friday night
But he burns out about daylight
And he's always hanging where the jukeboxplays
He ain't nothing to me
Just a dance or two before you even knew me
He's Just an old Neon Flame
Give me a quarter
And I'll pick a number that's a slow one
And tonight we'll start a fire we can't contain
His heart's a cold one
And I think I've been around long enough to know
He's just an old Neon Flame
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh, honey, he's just an old Neon Flame
Any Woman lyrics - Terri Clark
Everytime you ask her out
she turns you down
You've seen a tear roll down her cheek
When she thinks there no one's around
You don't know what's going on
But you know there's something wrong
Well,It don't take much to figure this one out.
[Chorus:]
Any Woman
Who's been hurt by a man
understands It'll take sometime for her to find
a way to love again
She may be crying but she's trying to do the best she can
Just ask any woman who's been hurt by a man.
She lies in bed with questions on her mind,
was she so wrong about him and is
she gonna be all right?
The night can be so cold.
When a memory's at your hold
Yeah,I know what she's going through tonight,'cause
[Repeat Chorus]
Her broken heart
Will come around
She just needs a chance to heal right now
[Repeat Chorus]
Just Ask Any Woman Who's Been Hurt By A Man
she turns you down
You've seen a tear roll down her cheek
When she thinks there no one's around
You don't know what's going on
But you know there's something wrong
Well,It don't take much to figure this one out.

Twang Thang lyrics - Terri Clark
A beer stain on a jukebox
A tractor in a field
Fireflies on a screen door
A home cooked meal
Rolling down a dirt road
Listening to a George Strait Song
If it ain't pure and simple
It ain't gonna turn me on
[Chorus:]
It's gotta have a Twang Thang
It's gotta bend a heart strang
Like a scuffed up boot
Or a boy with two first names
I gotta feel a deep pang
When I hear the songs they sang
If It don't kick up a little dust
It ain't got much of a Twa-ang Thang
If I tried to desrcibe it
Well,I don't think I could
It's like swimming in a cold creek
'Cause it just feels good
No Matter where you find it,
There's a down home qualityIt ain't sophisticated
And thats just fine with me
[Repeat Chorus (2x)]
If It don't kick up a little
dust it ain't got much of a twang thang
A tractor in a field
Fireflies on a screen door
A home cooked meal
Rolling down a dirt road
Listening to a George Strait Song
If it ain't pure and simple
It ain't gonna turn me on
[Chorus:]
It's gotta have a Twang Thang
It's gotta bend a heart strang
Like a scuffed up boot
Or a boy with two first names
I gotta feel a deep pang
When I hear the songs they sang
If It don't kick up a little dust
It ain't got much of a Twa-ang Thang
If I tried to desrcibe it
Well,I don't think I could
It's like swimming in a cold creek

You Do Or You Don't lyrics - Terri Clark
Come on darlin' get down off that fence
Don't even try and make it make sense
It's got nothin' to do with your mind
Take a leap of faith this time
Tell me what you're feelin' deep in your heart
Love ain't followed by a question mark
It should be simple, should be easy
We're not talkin' brain surgery
You do or you don't, you do or you don't
You do or you don't love me
You can make a list of pros and cons
Check 'em all off baby one by one
But all I really wanna know tonight
Is are you always gonna want me in your life
Tell me what you're feelin' deep in your heart
Love ain't followed by a question mark
It should be simple, should be easy
We're not talkin' brain surgery
You do or you don't, you do or you don't
You do or you don't love me
Tell me what you're feelin' deep in your heart
Love ain't followed by a question mark
It should be simple, should be easy
We're not talkin' brain surgery
You do or you don't, you do or you don't
You do or you don't love me
Don't even try and make it make sense
It's got nothin' to do with your mind
Take a leap of faith this time
Tell me what you're feelin' deep in your heart
Love ain't followed by a question mark
It should be simple, should be easy
We're not talkin' brain surgery
You do or you don't, you do or you don't
You do or you don't love me
You can make a list of pros and cons
Check 'em all off baby one by one
But all I really wanna know tonight
Is are you always gonna want me in your life
Tell me what you're feelin' deep in your heart
Love ain't followed by a question mark

Keeper Of The Flame lyrics - Terri Clark
We pass in the hallway
I stop to kiss you on the cheek
But you're in a hurry
You've got a deadline you must meet
You're working so much these days
You don't have time to spend with me
But I keep hoping we might get back
To the way love used to be
I am the keeper of the flame
You only helped me build the fire
And it's getting harder every day
To make our love burn with desire
'Cause If I left it up to you
Only ashes would remain
When it needs shelter from the rain
I am the keeper of the flame
We live here together
But I feel we're worlds apart
When I tell you I love you
You never listen with your heart
I may look like I'm doing fine
But I'm dying deep inside
'Cause I've done all that I can do
To try and keep this love alive
I am the keeper of the flame
You only helped me build the fire
And it's getting harder every day
To make our love burn with desire
'Cause If I left it up to you
Only ashes would remain
When it needs shelter from the rain
I am the keeper of the flame
Oh, when it needs shelter from the rain
I am the keeper of the flame
I stop to kiss you on the cheek
But you're in a hurry
You've got a deadline you must meet
You're working so much these days
You don't have time to spend with me
But I keep hoping we might get back
To the way love used to be
I am the keeper of the flame
You only helped me build the fire
And it's getting harder every day
To make our love burn with desire
'Cause If I left it up to you
Only ashes would remain
When it needs shelter from the rain
I am the keeper of the flame
We live here together
But I feel we're worlds apart
When I tell you I love you
You never listen with your heart
I may look like I'm doing fine
But I'm dying deep inside
'Cause I've done all that I can do
To try and keep this love alive
I am the keeper of the flame
You only helped me build the fire
And it's getting harder every day
To make our love burn with desire
'Cause If I left it up to you
Only ashes would remain
When it needs shelter from the rain
I am the keeper of the flame
Oh, when it needs shelter from the rain
I am the keeper of the flame
Not What I Wanted To Hear lyrics - Terri Clark
For two weeks I ain't heard the phone ring
Just a warning bell
My friends tell me they know things
I should know as well
I can't deny it
I've been told
A voice inside
Says let you go
But that's not what I wanted to hear
Not what I wanted my heart to say to me
That you'd be long gone
Before too long
And that's not what I wanted to see
'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong
But one thing is clear
It's what I needed to know
But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
Sometimes my intuition
Can get carried away
But right now I'd better listen
To what it has to say
'Cause when I tried to
Believe you're mine
I just got silence
Every time
And that's not what I wanted to hear
Not what I wanted my heart to say to me
That you'd be long gone
Before too long
And that's not what I wanted to see
'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong
But one thing is clear
It's what I needed to know
But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
But that's not what I wanted to hear
Not what I wanted my heart to say to me
That you'd be long gone
Before too long
And that's not what I wanted to see
'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong
But one thing is clear
It's what I needed to know
But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
Oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
Just a warning bell
My friends tell me they know things
I should know as well
I can't deny it
I've been told
A voice inside
Says let you go
But that's not what I wanted to hear
Not what I wanted my heart to say to me
That you'd be long gone
Before too long
And that's not what I wanted to see
'Cause nobody wants to believe they could be so wrong
But one thing is clear
It's what I needed to know
But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
Sometimes my intuition
Can get carried away
But right now I'd better listen
To what it has to say
'Cause when I tried to
Believe you're mine
I just got silence
Every time
And that's not what I wanted to hear
Not what I wanted my heart to say to me

It's what I needed to know
But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear

And that's not what I wanted to see

But one thing is clear
It's what I needed to know
But, oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
Oh-it's not what I wanted to hear
Hold Your Horses lyrics - Terri Clark
Well you thundered into my life like a steed out of control
Tried to rope my heart and tie me down
With a little band of gold
And I hate to break your spirit 'cause I know your mind is set
Well you may be but I ain't ready yet
Hold your horses, you're steppin' outta line
Like a team of untamed stallions tramplin' on
This heart of mine
I'm no good beneath the reins,
Used to makin' my own choices
Hold your horses
I don't mean to act so skittish
But when it comes to changin' names
There's a mighty sense of freedom
Still a rushin' through my veins
And your urgent need to settle down
Has got me runnin' scared
'Cause I ain't quite ready for the rocking chair
Hold your horses, you're steppin' outta line
Like a team of untamed stallions tramplin' on
This heart of mine
I'm no good beneath the reins,
Used to makin' my own choices
Hold your horses
[Instrumental]
Hold your horses, you're steppin' outta line
Like a team of untamed stallions tramplin' on
This heart of mine
I'm no good beneath the reins,
Used to makin' my own choices
Hold your horses
Hold your horses...
Tried to rope my heart and tie me down
With a little band of gold
And I hate to break your spirit 'cause I know your mind is set
Well you may be but I ain't ready yet
Hold your horses, you're steppin' outta line
Like a team of untamed stallions tramplin' on
This heart of mine
I'm no good beneath the reins,
Used to makin' my own choices
Hold your horses
I don't mean to act so skittish
But when it comes to changin' names
There's a mighty sense of freedom
Still a rushin' through my veins
And your urgent need to settle down
Has got me runnin' scared
'Cause I ain't quite ready for the rocking chair
Hold your horses, you're steppin' outta line
Like a team of untamed stallions tramplin' on
This heart of mine
I'm no good beneath the reins,
Used to makin' my own choices
Hold your horses
[Instrumental]
Hold your horses, you're steppin' outta line
Like a team of untamed stallions tramplin' on
This heart of mine
I'm no good beneath the reins,
Used to makin' my own choices
Hold your horses
Hold your horses...
Better Things To Do lyrics - Terri Clark
Don't tell me the reason that you're calling
Is to see if I'm all right since you've been gone
'Cause I know you and I know why we're talking
You're wanting me to say I'm barely hanging on
Well, maybe that was true for a night or two
But now, I got better things to do
[Chorus:]
I could wash my car in the rain
Change my new guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday
I don't need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
Maybe when I don't have so much going
Or quite so many irons in the fire
I'll take the time to miss you like you're hoping
But now, I can't put forth the effort it requires
Well, I'd love to talk to you, but then, I'd miss Donahue
That's right, I got better things to do
[Repeat Chorus]
Check the air in my tires
Straighten my stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky or just get on with my life
I don't need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
I got better things to do
Is to see if I'm all right since you've been gone
'Cause I know you and I know why we're talking
You're wanting me to say I'm barely hanging on
Well, maybe that was true for a night or two
But now, I got better things to do
[Chorus:]
I could wash my car in the rain
Change my new guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday
I don't need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
Maybe when I don't have so much going
Or quite so many irons in the fire
I'll take the time to miss you like you're hoping
But now, I can't put forth the effort it requires
Well, I'd love to talk to you, but then, I'd miss Donahue
That's right, I got better things to do
[Repeat Chorus]
Check the air in my tires
Straighten my stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky or just get on with my life
I don't need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
I got better things to do
If I Were You lyrics - Terri Clark
You were standin' at my front door
When I came home tonight
And I could tell by the look you gave me
You were needin' my advice
You say you want more out of life than he can give you
As a tear rolls down your face
But girl, I've seen the way he looks at you
And I know someone who'd gladly take your place.
[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.
If I were you.
You shouldn't think you're missin' out on something
Because you wear a wedding band
'Cause I can't seem to find somebody
Who wants more than just a one night stand
You know this single life I'm livin'
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
So you've come to the wrong place
If what you want is sympathy.
[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.
[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.
If I were you...
When I came home tonight
And I could tell by the look you gave me
You were needin' my advice
You say you want more out of life than he can give you
As a tear rolls down your face
But girl, I've seen the way he looks at you
And I know someone who'd gladly take your place.
[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.
If I were you.
You shouldn't think you're missin' out on something
Because you wear a wedding band
'Cause I can't seem to find somebody
Who wants more than just a one night stand
You know this single life I'm livin'
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
So you've come to the wrong place
If what you want is sympathy.
[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.
[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.
If I were you...
Catch 22 lyrics - Terri Clark
A farmer on a tractor
Plowing in the field
Doing all he can to increase the yield
But the more he raises
The more the price goes down
Over at the factory
Working on the line
You do a good job and never fall behind
So your quota goes up every time you turn around
It ain't nothing new, it's called Catch 22
[Chorus:]
Heads they win, tails you lose
It's all the same either way you choose
You're damned if you don't and even if you do
It's (still) a Catch 22
Tell a man you love him
He starts backing up
Tell him you don't and he's a lovesick pup
You try to get together
And watch it fall apart
Hey, I've been there too, what a Catch 22
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh, it's a Catch 22
No matter what you do, it's a Catch 22
Plowing in the field
Doing all he can to increase the yield
But the more he raises
The more the price goes down
Over at the factory
Working on the line
You do a good job and never fall behind
So your quota goes up every time you turn around
It ain't nothing new, it's called Catch 22
[Chorus:]
Heads they win, tails you lose
It's all the same either way you choose
You're damned if you don't and even if you do
It's (still) a Catch 22
Tell a man you love him
He starts backing up
Tell him you don't and he's a lovesick pup
You try to get together
And watch it fall apart
Hey, I've been there too, what a Catch 22
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh, it's a Catch 22
No matter what you do, it's a Catch 22
Is Fort Worth Worth It lyrics - Terri Clark
You say your bags are packed
You won't be coming back
You'll hit I-35 and be in cowtown by tonight
In Austin, here with me
Ain't where you want to be
But somewhere down the line, the price will be
way too high
[Chorus:]
Is Fort Worth worth it
For what it costs in Austin
Is the love you think you'll find
Worth the love you're gonna lose
Can that woman west of Dallas
Make you forget about us
Is Fort Worth worth it to you
She offered you the moon
But darling, someday soon
The sun is gonna rise and you'll see things
In a different light
The love you're looking for
Is right inside my door
And if you leave you might ask yourself some
lonely night
[Repeat Chorus]
Is Fort Worth really worth it to you
You won't be coming back
You'll hit I-35 and be in cowtown by tonight
In Austin, here with me
Ain't where you want to be
But somewhere down the line, the price will be
way too high
[Chorus:]
Is Fort Worth worth it
For what it costs in Austin
Is the love you think you'll find
Worth the love you're gonna lose
Can that woman west of Dallas
Make you forget about us
Is Fort Worth worth it to you
She offered you the moon
But darling, someday soon
The sun is gonna rise and you'll see things
In a different light
The love you're looking for
Is right inside my door
And if you leave you might ask yourself some
lonely night
[Repeat Chorus]
Is Fort Worth really worth it to you
When Boy Meets Girl lyrics - Terri Clark
First, it's baseball, arcades in the mall
Skipping out of study hall to hang with the guys
Then, it's fast cars, rock and roll guitars
Lighting up behind the barn and not knowing why
But his life is about to change
He's never gonna be the same
And he'll be living in a different world
When boy meets girl
One smile, one look - he's nearly on the hook
Got it bad and feeling good all over inside
He ain't got a clue what he's going through
But he's going to - just give him time
'Cause his life is about to change
He's never gonna be the same
He'll be living in a diffferent world
When boy meets girl
[Bridge:]
He never polished his boots before
Never thought about what he wore
Never knew he could feel like that
Now there ain't no way he can ever go back
Oh yeah, his life is about to change
He ain't never gonna be the same
And he'll be living in a different world
When boy meets girl
His life is about to change
He ain't never gonna be the same
He'll be living in a different world
When boy meets girl....
Skipping out of study hall to hang with the guys
Then, it's fast cars, rock and roll guitars
Lighting up behind the barn and not knowing why
But his life is about to change
He's never gonna be the same
And he'll be living in a different world
When boy meets girl
One smile, one look - he's nearly on the hook
Got it bad and feeling good all over inside
He ain't got a clue what he's going through
But he's going to - just give him time
'Cause his life is about to change
He's never gonna be the same
He'll be living in a diffferent world
When boy meets girl
[Bridge:]
He never polished his boots before
Never thought about what he wore
Never knew he could feel like that
Now there ain't no way he can ever go back
Oh yeah, his life is about to change
He ain't never gonna be the same
And he'll be living in a different world
When boy meets girl
His life is about to change
He ain't never gonna be the same
He'll be living in a different world
When boy meets girl....
Tyin' A Heart To A Tumbleweed lyrics - Terri Clark
I'll always remember the first time I saw him
Up in the saddle alone
Riding that pony and racin' the wind
Whereverit would blow
Each night I'd pray
For one more day
But his soul was wild and free
It's like tyin' a heart
To a tumbleweed
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
His love will blow my way one day soon
Yes I know I should let him go
But I can't deny the need
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
His love will blow my way one day soon
Yes I know I should let him go
But I can't deny the need
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
I could fashion some fences that might hold him in
But only for a little while
'Cause that restless spirit keeps following him
And I know he's bound to say goodbye
I dream he'll say that he wants to stay
Then he drifts away from me
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
His love will blow my way one day soon
Yes I know I should let him go
But I can't deny the need
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
Tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
Tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
Up in the saddle alone
Riding that pony and racin' the wind
Whereverit would blow
Each night I'd pray
For one more day
But his soul was wild and free
It's like tyin' a heart
To a tumbleweed
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
His love will blow my way one day soon
Yes I know I should let him go
But I can't deny the need
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
His love will blow my way one day soon
Yes I know I should let him go
But I can't deny the need
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
I could fashion some fences that might hold him in
But only for a little while
'Cause that restless spirit keeps following him
And I know he's bound to say goodbye
I dream he'll say that he wants to stay
Then he drifts away from me
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
So I'll make a wish beneath the desert moon
His love will blow my way one day soon
Yes I know I should let him go
But I can't deny the need
It's like tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
Tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
Tyin' a heart to a tumbleweed
When We Had It Bad lyrics - Terri Clark
Back when we had nothing
That was when we had it all
We were so in love, it almost hurt
Now, you're staring at the TV
While I'm staring at the wall
And I'm hurting now-for the way we were
I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain't the way things are
And it's so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad
I don't know how it happens
Why the passion has to fade
Remember when we said it never would
Won't you hold me like you used to
When you took my breath away
'Cause it ain't too late for us to feel that good
I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain't the way things are
And it's so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad
I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain't the way things are
And it's so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad
I liked it better when we had it bad
That was when we had it all
We were so in love, it almost hurt
Now, you're staring at the TV
While I'm staring at the wall
And I'm hurting now-for the way we were
I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain't the way things are
And it's so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad
I don't know how it happens
Why the passion has to fade
Remember when we said it never would
Won't you hold me like you used to
When you took my breath away
'Cause it ain't too late for us to feel that good
I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain't the way things are
And it's so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad
I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain't the way things are
And it's so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad
I liked it better when we had it bad
Suddenly Single lyrics - Terri Clark
In the pale neon light of a Saturday night
You'll see him walk up to the bar
He'll size up the ladies, the 'no's" and the "maybe's"
Till he finds one who'll let down her guard
Then the band on his hand gets slipped off again
And his disarming charm starts to work
And with a drink and a lie, in the blink of an eye
Something amazing occurs
He's suddenly single
Instantly free
And for three or four hours
He's the man of her dreams
He acts like there's no one waiting at home
He'll be suddenly single
Till he's suddenly gone
He sneaks through the door at a quarter to four
But tonight there's no one to wake
The note that she wrote him says, "I've given up hoping
I'd be able to change you someday."
He sits on the bed, shaking head
A man in complete disbelief
He knows what he's lost
Oh, but he never thought
Someday, he'd really be
Suddenly single
Instantly free
And for the rest of his life
She'll haunt his dreams
And now there'll be no one waiting at home
He's suddenly single
'Cause she's suddenly gone
He's suddenly single
'Cause she's suddenly gone
You'll see him walk up to the bar
He'll size up the ladies, the 'no's" and the "maybe's"
Till he finds one who'll let down her guard
Then the band on his hand gets slipped off again
And his disarming charm starts to work
And with a drink and a lie, in the blink of an eye
Something amazing occurs
He's suddenly single
Instantly free
And for three or four hours
He's the man of her dreams
He acts like there's no one waiting at home
He'll be suddenly single
Till he's suddenly gone
He sneaks through the door at a quarter to four
But tonight there's no one to wake
The note that she wrote him says, "I've given up hoping
I'd be able to change you someday."
He sits on the bed, shaking head
A man in complete disbelief
He knows what he's lost
Oh, but he never thought
Someday, he'd really be
Suddenly single
Instantly free
And for the rest of his life
She'll haunt his dreams
And now there'll be no one waiting at home
He's suddenly single
'Cause she's suddenly gone
He's suddenly single
'Cause she's suddenly gone
Flowers After The Fact lyrics - Terri Clark
Ten days too late you show up
With a sheepish grin and a bouquet in your hand
You make mistakes by the dozen
Don't think you can make it up the same way again
Flowers after the fact
Ain't gonna get me back
You gotta do something sooner and better than that
When you bring red roses
There's an ulterior motive
Don't give me flowers after the fact
No part of your heart's ever in it,
You're just trying to get your foot back in the door
I might feel like you meant it
If those long stems had come in the name of love before
Flowers after the fact
Ain't gonna get me back
You gotta do something sooner and better than that
When you bring red roses
There's an ulterior motive
Don't give me flowers after the fact
When you bring me red roses
There's an ulterior motive
Don't need no flowers after the fact
Now don't give me flowers after the fact
With a sheepish grin and a bouquet in your hand
You make mistakes by the dozen
Don't think you can make it up the same way again
Flowers after the fact
Ain't gonna get me back
You gotta do something sooner and better than that
When you bring red roses
There's an ulterior motive
Don't give me flowers after the fact
No part of your heart's ever in it,
You're just trying to get your foot back in the door
I might feel like you meant it
If those long stems had come in the name of love before
Flowers after the fact
Ain't gonna get me back
You gotta do something sooner and better than that
When you bring red roses
There's an ulterior motive
Don't give me flowers after the fact
When you bring me red roses
There's an ulterior motive
Don't need no flowers after the fact
Now don't give me flowers after the fact
The Inside Story lyrics - Terri Clark
The rumor going'round
Is that I haven't shed a tear
But don't they know you can't believe
Everything you hear
'Cause ever since you left
I've been a master of disguise
I may be smiling on the outside
But don't look into my eyes, 'cause...
The inside story
Is as clear as black and white
I still dream about you
When I turn out the lights
The news out on the street
Says you didn't break my heart
But the inside story
Is tearing me apart
I thought maybe there was something wrong
That we'd work out in time
And looking back I can see
I didn't read between the lines
And now my pride helps me hide the pain
So it's not written on my face
When we pass I'll pretend your memory
Was easy to erase, but...
The inside story
Is as clear as black and white
I still dream about you
When I turn out the lights
The news out on the street
Says you didn't break my heart
But the inside story
Is tearing me apart
Oh, the inside story
Is tearing me apart
Is that I haven't shed a tear
But don't they know you can't believe
Everything you hear
'Cause ever since you left
I've been a master of disguise
I may be smiling on the outside
But don't look into my eyes, 'cause...
The inside story
Is as clear as black and white
I still dream about you
When I turn out the lights
The news out on the street
Says you didn't break my heart
But the inside story
Is tearing me apart
I thought maybe there was something wrong
That we'd work out in time
And looking back I can see
I didn't read between the lines
And now my pride helps me hide the pain
So it's not written on my face
When we pass I'll pretend your memory
Was easy to erase, but...
The inside story
Is as clear as black and white
I still dream about you
When I turn out the lights
The news out on the street
Says you didn't break my heart
But the inside story
Is tearing me apart
Oh, the inside story
Is tearing me apart
Was There A Girl On Your Boys' Night Out lyrics - Terri Clark
You're late, it's well past two
And there's a trace of strange perfume
I can see you had a good time
'Cause honey I ain't blind
And I can read you like a book
You've got a guilty look
And there's something I'm wondering about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
You ain't the kind to cheat
But maybe you would if she threw herself at your feet
Did you look or did you touch
Tell me now, you owe me that much
I think you know what I'm talking about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
A friend called a while ago
Said there was something I should know
She saw you shooting pool
With someone who was making eyes at you
I never have accused
But, baby I'm a bit confused
I need to know without a doubt
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
You ain't the kind to cheat
But maybe you would if she threw herself at your feet
Did you look or did you touch
Tell me now, you owe me that much
I think you know what I'm talking about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
I think you know what I'm talking about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
I never have accused
But, baby I'm a bit confused
I need to know without a doubt
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
You ain't the kind to cheat
But maybe you would if she threw herself at your feet
Did you look or did you touch
Tell me now, you owe me that much
I think you know what I'm talking about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
I think you know what I'm talking about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
And there's a trace of strange perfume
I can see you had a good time
'Cause honey I ain't blind
And I can read you like a book
You've got a guilty look
And there's something I'm wondering about
Was there a girl on your boys' night out
You ain't the kind to cheat
But maybe you would if she threw herself at your feet
Did you look or did you touch
Tell me now, you owe me that much
I think you know what I'm talking about

Something You Should've Said lyrics - Terri Clark
I overheard a conversation
Down at the diner tonight
A boy told a girl she was his whole world
And He'd love her till the end of time
It reminded me of you, and the thought went through my head
"That sounds like something you should've said."
I took myself out to a movie
Saw a man on the silver screen
Tell the woman he loved for just one touch
He would do anything
It reminded me of you, and the thought went through my head
"That sounds like something you should've said."
You never let me know the way you felt
And I don't understand why
The longest talk we ever had
Was when I said goodbye
I heard a song playing on the jukebox
A singer pouring out his soul
And every word he sang was filled with pain
That he'd ever let his lady go
It reminded me of you, and the thought went through my head
"That sounds like something you should've said."
"That sounds like something you should've said."

I Want You To Smile lyrics - Terri Clark
She packed my lunch up in a box
For my first day of school
I said I wish you could go with me today
She said I know you’ll be alright just like I promised you
Just remember anytime you feel afraid
I want you to smile
And know you’re not alone
Dry those little eyes
Ill be here when you come home
I’m always in heart
Even we are apart
If only for awhile
So I want you to smile
She packed suitcase in the trunk
When I turned eighteen
And drove me all the way to Tennessee
She said I know you’re going to make it
I’ve got faith in you
And while you’re out there chasing down you’re dreams
I want you to smile
And know you’re not alone
Dry those little eyes
Ill be here when you come home
I’m always in heart
Even we are apart
If only for awhile
So I want you to smile
She fought for 3 long years
And didn’t want to leave
No matter what the they told her
She still believed
So she used the tools that god gave her
But In the end they couldn’t save her
As I sat there by here bed watching her sleep
She must have heard a tear run down my cheek
That’s when she said to me
I want you to smile
And know you’re not alone
Dry those little eyes
Ill be there when you come home
I’m always in heart
Even we are apart
If only for awhile
It’ll only be awhile
So I want you to smile
For my first day of school
I said I wish you could go with me today
She said I know you’ll be alright just like I promised you
Just remember anytime you feel afraid
I want you to smile
And know you’re not alone
Dry those little eyes
Ill be here when you come home
I’m always in heart
Even we are apart
If only for awhile
So I want you to smile
She packed suitcase in the trunk
When I turned eighteen
And drove me all the way to Tennessee
She said I know you’re going to make it
I’ve got faith in you
And while you’re out there chasing down you’re dreams
I want you to smile
And know you’re not alone
Dry those little eyes
Ill be here when you come home
I’m always in heart
Even we are apart
If only for awhile
So I want you to smile
She fought for 3 long years
And didn’t want to leave
No matter what the they told her
She still believed
So she used the tools that god gave her
But In the end they couldn’t save her
As I sat there by here bed watching her sleep
She must have heard a tear run down my cheek
That’s when she said to me
I want you to smile
And know you’re not alone
Dry those little eyes
Ill be there when you come home
I’m always in heart
Even we are apart
If only for awhile
It’ll only be awhile
So I want you to smile
