Oh how you sparkle
And oh how you shine
That flush on your cheeks
Is more than the wine
And he must do something
That I didn't do
Whatever he's doing
Look's good on you

You look so good in love
You want him
That's easy to see
You look so good in love
I wish
You still wanted me

He must has stolen
Some stars from the sky
And gave them to you
To wear in your eyes
I had my chances
But I set you free
And now I wonder
Why I couldn't see

You look so good in love
You want him
That's easy to see
You look so good in love
I wish

. . .



Right or wrong I'll always love you
Though you're gone I can't forget
Right or wrong I'll keep on dreaming
Still I wake with the same old regret

All along I knew I'd lose you
Though I prayed that you'd be true
In your heart please just remember
Right or wrong, I'm still in love with you.

(Repeat)
All along I knew I'd lose you
Though I prayed that you'd be true
In your heart please just remember

. . .



I used to like
Making love then
Getting up
And never having to explain
I've always been free
I never could see me
Draggin' no ball and chain
I like running around
And being tied down
Never was my cup of tea
But since I've been holding an angel
A little heaven's rubbing off on me

And I'm beginning to like just sittin' and holding hands
Looking into her eyes I'm thinking about future plans
And then I get the feeling that the life that I'd been leading ain't all it's
cracked
up to be
Since I've been holding an angel
A little heaven's rubbing off on me

I used like
To spend the night
Sittin' on an old bar stool
Drinkin' wine and killing time
With all over those other fools
But since you took my hand
I think I understand
It ain't the way it outta be
Since I've been holding an angel
A little heaven's rubbing off on me

And I'm beginning to like just sittin' and holding hands
Looking into her eyes I'm thinking about future plans
And then I get the feeling that the life that I'd been leading ain't all it's
cracked
up to be
Since I've been holding an angel
A little heaven's rubbing off on me

Since I've been holding an angel

. . .



You ain't never fell as far as when you fall in love
Except the fall you take when you've been loved and given up
When you have your heart and soul rubbed into the dirt
An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper will take away the hurt

Give me an 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper
And I'll start feeling I forgot her
Get a little loose and lose her memory
And I won't think I'm close to dying
Because it dries up all my crying
An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper always sets me free

It ain't easy losing love although it's turned out bad
All at once you're turning off old feelings you once had
But I found a helping hand right here in my hand
An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper will help me take command

Give me an 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper
And I'll start feeling I forgot her
Get a little loose and lose her memory
And I won't think I'm close to dying
Because it dries up all my crying

. . .



Every time my ship comes in
A hurricane blows it out again
Stormy weather seems to hang around my door
My sweet bird of paradise
Flew the coop on me last night
Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

I got a letter from the I.R.S
They said, son, you're in a hell of a mess
Our computer shows you owe ten-thousand more
That machine's made a bad mistake
'Cause that's more than this poor boy makes
Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

Every time it rains I just wash my car
The whole neighbourhood goes
Swimmin' in my front yard
Well, my mother-in-law says she's
Stayin' three weeks more
Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

Just got my car out of the shop
Two blocks down the street it stopped
I went to use the telephone at the grocery store
I walked back to my Chevrolet
But they towed that sucker away
Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

Every time it rains I just wash my car
The whole neighbourhood goes
Swimmin' in my front yard
Well, my mother-in-law says she's
Stayin' three weeks more
Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

. . .



Sometimes I like a drink 'cause I'm happy,
When I think of how your love
it's my life.
If you see me
light on my feet feeling good inside,
Honey, you're the cloud that I'm on
when I'm high.

(Chorus)
When I'm high
I'm high because you love me
No matter if I'm sober
or having bourbon with water by
If you see me
light on my feet feeling good inside
Honey, you're the cloud I'm on
when I'm high.

It has always been my style to celebrate
And what more could I celebrate tonight?
You're sweet love took my soul
flying to the sky
Honey, you're the cloud I'm on when I'm high.


. . .



Pardon me, you left your tears on the jukebox
And I'm afraid they got mixed up with mine
I don't mean to pry, it's just that I
noticed you goin' out of your mind
It looks like were two of a kind

Chorus

Let's fall to pieces together
Why should we both fall apart
Let's fall to pieces together
Right here in each other's arms

Alone is much better together
When the worst is still yet to come
So let's share the rest, of the tears that are left
From two hearts that just came undone
Why should we go crazy alone


. . .



You don't dress up in satin
You don't wear diamond rings
But I'm satisfied with you.
You look just like an angel
but you haven't got wings
But I'm satisfied with you.

I'd rather have you
just the way that you are
Than change you for somebody new
Maybe I could do better
if I reached for a star
But I'm satisfied with you.

You're not made out of candy
But you're as sweet as you can be
So I'm satisfied with you.
I just can't see
no reason why you bother with me
But I'm satisfied with you

I often wonder if it's all a mistake
It's hard to believe that it's true.
But If I'm only dreaming
I sure don't want to wake
'Cause I'm satisfied with you.


. . .



Lady I know your out there somewhere
Like me your feeling lost
Maybe right now we both need each other
But our paths may never cross
People like us never find each other
Love is our greatest loss
Baby I know you are out there some where
But our paths may never cross
We're to people that should be together
Cause we're lonely at the very same time
but there's a million to many good reasons
why your love can never be mine
maybe this song was written for you
listen, don't turn it off
I wish you could learn it
and come sing it with me
but our paths may never cross
I wish you could learn it
and come sing it with me

. . .



15 years together
We climbed by work and will
From a simple two room cottage
to a mansion on the hill
Now there's rose in the garden
But it's the coldest place in town
It took 15 years, goin' up
And one night comin' down

15 years of heaven
For one short night of sin
From blue skies forever
To an end
From out on a mountain
To both knees on the ground
15 years, goin' up
And one night comin' down

Her dreams have all been shattered
Her faith in my is gone
My tears tell her I'm sorry
But they can't write my wrong
One night wrote my story
How a man can lose it all
After 15 years goin' up
It's hard to take a fall

15 years of heaven
For one short night of sin
From blue skies forever
To an end
From out on a mountain
To both knees on the ground
15 years, goin' up
And one night comin' down

I've been, 15 years goin' up
