You’re Welcome to Try

(Randall Lee Anderson)


I already love you more than words can say

You’re always in my heart and on my mind

There’s nothing you could ever do to make me love you more

But, by all means, you’re welcome to try


You could send me love notes every single day

Convince me I’m the only man alive

You can shower me with kisses and smother me with hugs

Yeah, by all means, you’re welcome to try


You can try all day to change me, you can try all night

But you’ll just be wasting your time

I’m already at my limit when it comes to loving you

But, by all means you’re welcome to try



Blame it on Your Heart

(Harlan Howard, Kostas Lazarides)


You've got a thing or two to learn about me baby

'Cause I ain't taking it no more and I don't mean maybe

You don't know right from wrong

Well the love we had is gone

So blame it on your lying, cheating, cold dead beating,

Two-timing, double dealing

Mean mistreating, loving heart


Well all I wanted was to be your one and only

And all I ever got from you was being lonely

Now that dream is laid to rest

'Cause you have failed the test

Hey blame it on your lying, cheating, cold dead beating,

Two-timing, double dealing

Mean mistreating, loving heart


Are you headed for a heartache, oh yeah

Gonna get a bad break, oh yeah

You made a bad mistake, oh yeah

Well, you're never gonna find another love like mine

Someone's gonna do you like you done me honey

And when she does you like she'll do you, it ain't funny

You need some sympathy

But don't be calling me

Hey blame it on your lying, cheating, cold dead beating

Two-timing, double dealing

Mean mistreating, loving heart


Are you headed for a heartache, oh yeah

Gonna get a bad break, oh yeah

You made a bad mistake, oh yeah

Well, you're never gonna find another love like mine

Someone's gonna do you like you done me honey

And when she does you like she'll do you, it ain't funny

You need some sympathy

But don't be calling me

Hey blame it on your lying, cheating, cold dead beating

Two-timing, double dealing

Mean mistreating, loving heart


Hey blame it on your lying, cheating, cold dead beating, two-timing,

Double dealing, mean mistreating, loving heart



I’m Movin’ On

(Phillip White, D. Vincent Williams)


I've dealt with my ghosts
And faced all my demons
Finally content with the past I regret
I found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with my self
I've been burdened with blame
Trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin on

I've lived in this place
And I know all the faces
Each one is different
But they're always the same
They mean me no harm
But it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed
Home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin on

I'm moving on
At last I can see (Last I can see)
Life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees
But I'm not alone
There comes at time
In everyone’s life
When all you can see
Are the years passing by (are the years passing by)
And I have made up my mind
That those days are gone

I've sold what I could
Packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should
But lived like I shouldn't
I had to loose everything to find out.
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm Moving on
I'm moving on
I'm moving on



One Quarter at a Time

(Kim McCasland)


He must have struck out again tonight

He must be drinking all alone

Cause I’m the one he calls at closing time

When no one else will take him home


He calls me when he’s lonely

I’m his one and only

But only when he’s in the mood

When the mood escapes him I can’t make him stay

Ooo…


I’m his sure thing no strings better than a nothing fling

And he thinks that I don’t mind

But he’s losing his connection one quarter at a time


I fall for darling’ I’ve been missing you

Or some other stupid cliché line

I know exactly what I’m falling for

And I regret it every time


Why cant’ I hang it up

Then he’d be out of luck

He always finds a way to get through

But now I‘m through with hoping my eyes are open

I’ve been such a fool


I’m his sure thing no strings better than a nothing fling

And he thinks that I don’t mind

But he’s losing his connection one quarter at a time

Yes he’s losing his connection one quarter at a time



Brown Eyed Girl

(Van Morrison)


Hey where did we go,

Days when the rains came

Down in the hollow,

Playin' a new game,

Laughing and a running hey, hey

Skipping and a jumping

In the misty morning fog with

Our hearts a thumpin' and you

My brown eyed girl,

You my brown eyed girl.


Whatever happened

To Tuesday and so slow

Going down the old mine

With a transistor radio

Standing in the sunlight laughing,

Hiding behind a rainbow's wall,

Slipping and sliding

All along the water fall, with you

My brown eyed girl,

You my brown eyed girl.


Do you remember when we used to sing,

Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da


So hard to find my way,

Now that I'm all on my own.

I saw you just the other day,

My how you have grown,

Cast my memory back there, Lord

Sometime I'm overcome thinking 'bout

Making love in the green grass

Behind the stadium with you

My brown eyed girl

You my brown eyed girl


Do you remember when we used to sing

Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da.



I Cross My Heart

(Eric Kaz, Steve Dorff)


Our love is unconditional, we knew it from the start

I see it in your eyes, you can feel it from my heart

From here on after let's stay the way we are right now

And share all the love and laughter

That a lifetime will allow


I cross my heart and promise to

Give all I've got to give to make all your dreams come true

In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine


You will always be the miracle that makes my life complete

And as long as there's a breath in me, I'll make yours just as sweet

As we look into the future, it's as far as we can see

So let's make each tomorrow be the best that it can be


I cross my heart and promise to

Give all I've got to give to make all your dreams come true

In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine


And if along the way we find a day it starts to storm

You've got the promise of my love to keep you warm

In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine

A love as true as mine



Write This Down

(Dana Hunt, Kent M. Robbins)


I never saw the end in sight; fools are kind of blind

Thought everything was going alright, but I was running out of time

'Cause you had one foot out the door, I swear I didn't see

But if you're really going away, here's some final words from me


Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn't know

Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go, write this down

Take my words, read 'em every day, keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away

So you'll remember what I forgot to say, write this down


I'll sign it at the bottom of the page, I'll swear under oath

'Cause every single word is true, and I think you need to know

So use it as a bookmark, stick it on your 'frigerator door

Hang it in a picture frame up above the mantel where you'll see it for sure


Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn't know

Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go, write this down

Take my words, read 'em every day, keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away

So you'll remember what I forgot to say, write this down


You can find a chisel, I can find a stone

Folks will be reading these words, long after we're gone


Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn't know

Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go, write this down

Take my words, read 'em every day, keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away

So you'll remember what I forgot to say, write this down


Oh I love you and I don't want you to go, baby write this down



Why Haven’t I Heard From You

(Sandy Knox, T. W. Hale)


Back in 1876 an ol' boy named Bell

Invented a contraption that we know so well

By the 1950's they were in everybody's home

As a crazy little thing they call the telephone

Now there's one on every corner, in the back of every bar

You can get one in your briefcase, on a plane or in your car


So tell me why, haven't I heard from you

Tell me why, haven't I heard from you

I say now: Darlin', honey, what is your excuse

Why haven't I heard from you


Well there's no problem gettin' to me

Baby you can dial direct

I got call forwarding and call waiting

You can even call collect

The service man he told me that my phone is working fine

And I've come to the conclusion trouble isn't with my line

I'm sure the operator will be glad to put you thru

So dial zero for assistance if this all confuses you


So tell me why, haven't I heard from you

Tell me why, haven't I heard from you

I say now: Darlin', honey, what is your excuse

Why haven't I heard from you


There better been a flood, a landslide of mud

A fire that burns up the wires

And a thunder so loud with a black funnel cloud

A natural disaster I know nothin' about


So tell me why, haven't I heard from you

Tell me why, haven't I heard from you

I say now: Darlin', honey, what is your excuse

Why haven't I heard from you


So tell me why, haven't I heard from you

Tell me why, haven't I heard from you

I say now: Darlin', honey, what is your excuse

Why haven't I heard from you



The Dance

(Anthony M. Arata)


Looking back on the memory of

The dance we shared 'neath the stars alone

For a moment all the world was right

How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye


And now I'm glad I didn't know

The way it all would end the way it all would go

Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain

But I'd have had to miss the dance


Holding you I held everything

For a moment wasn't I a king

But if I'd only known how the king would fall

Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all


And now I'm glad I didn't know

The way it all would end the way it all would go

Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain

But I'd have had to miss the dance


Yes my life is better left to chance

I could have missed the pain but I'd have had to miss the dance



When Will I Be Loved

(Phil Everly)


I've been cheated

Been mistreated

When will I be loved


I've been pushed down

I've been pushed 'round

When will I be loved


When I find a new man

That I want for mine

He always breaks my heart into

It happens every time


I've been made blue

I've been lied to

When will I be loved


When I find a new man

That I want for mine

He always breaks my heart into

It happens every time


Oh, I've been cheated

Been mistreated

When will I be loved

When will I be loved

Tell me, when will I be loved



Wrapped Around

(Brad Paisley, Chris Dubois, Kelley Lovelace)


Every day I clock out

And head straight to her house

We cuddle up on the couch

But it always ends the same ole way

I'm drivin' home and it's incredibly late

Something's got to change, 'cause


I've been wrapped around her finger

Since the first time we went out

Every day and every night she's all I think about

I need that girl beside me

When the lights go out

I think it's time to put a ring on the finger

I'm wrapped around


Went to the bank took out a loan

Went and bought the perfect stone

Called up her dad on the phone

I'm takin' him to dinner Sunday night

I've never been so nervous in my life

I want to do this right, 'cause


I've been wrapped around her finger

Since the first time we went out

Every day and every night she's all I think about

I need that girl beside me

When the lights go out

I think it's time to put a ring on the finger

I'm wrapped around


Yes sir I love her very much

I know it's only been seven months

But that's long enough


I've been wrapped around her finger

Since the first time we went out

Every day and every night she's all I think about

I need that girl beside me

When the lights go out

I think it's time to put a ring on the finger

I'm wrapped around


I think it's time to put a ring on the finger

I'm wrapped around



Lucky Guy

(Matt Dorman, Randall Lee Anderson)


I hope you understand, I know you need a man

Who takes a woman’s hand and makes her dreams his plan

Kinda like that old fairy tale, with castles and wishing wells

Princes and wedding bells, well, I’ll get as close as I can

Yes I will


But I’m not the man from that dream

I’m not that shining knight

I’m just a lucky guy, Living a lucky life


I hope you understand, I’ll try to be that kind of man

‘Cause I know I’ll never get this chance, not ever again

So girl where we are today, is where I want to stay

And all that I’m trying to say is how thankful for you I am

Yes I am


But I’m not the man from that dream

I’m not that shining knight

I’m just a lucky guy, Living a lucky life


If not for a twist of fate or by some miracle

Or maybe an act of God, would this be possible


I’m not the man from that dream

I’m not that shining knight

I’m just a lucky guy, Living a lucky life


I’m just a lucky guy, Living a lucky life
