Kenny Rogers Album

[No lyrics]

You and me walking on the land
But we can lose a stare from time in time
'Cause we both get lonely
And it makes me more afraid
As the night goes on.

How long will it take until we know
If we should pray and say I'll let it go
'Cause I feel the danger
That maybe we should try to take it slow
As the night goes on.

And the night goes on
Keeping us waiting, keeping us holding on
'Til we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on
Don't let it shake us, just let it make us strong
So we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on.

You and me keep talking heart to heart
But why don't we stop talking and just start
'Cause it makes me restless
Can't you see it's tearing us apart.

As the night goes on
Keeping us waiting, keeping us holding on
'Til we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on
Don't let it shake us, just let it make us strong
So we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on.

And the night goes on
Keeping us waiting, keeping us holding on
'Til we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on
Don't let it shake us, just let it make us strong
So we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on.

I see myself when I look in your eyes
Staring back with a look of surprise
At what's going on
Don't turn back you can get away now
We're just a step from ten feet off the ground
We're alright where we belong
And nobody can say where we were wrong.

And the night goes on
Keeping us waiting, keeping us holding on
'Til we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on
Don't let it shake us, just let it make us strong
So we're not afraid of falling in love
And the night goes on...

When the lights go down and the music gets pretty
Get that cheek-to-cheek look in your eye
Little boy, go, better grab your honey
Girl, you'd better grab your guy

It's time for dream, dream dancing
Dream, dream dancing

Out on the dance floor everybody's all alone
Just squeeze my hand and then let's close our eyes
And listen to the man play on the saxophone
As we swerve 'cross the floor, just there, stars in the sky

Dream, dream dancing
Dream, dream dancing

Close your eyes, hold me tight
Let the night last forever, let the night last forever
And I don't mind if the sun never shines
And I don't care if tomorrow never comes

As long as we are dream, dream dancing
Dream, dream dancing

When the joint shuts down and I'm still feeling up
We go on home for a little cozy cover
For our favorite station on the radio
We'll be dancing close, we'll be dancing slow

Dream, dream dancing
Dream, dream dancing

I wish you were with me tonight
Right here in my arms
It's hard to put my mind to rest
Not knowing where you are.

The city lights have a thousand eyes
That follow in the stares
It's midnight now
And I hope tonight I'm dead.

Why did I say those words I said?
When I knew that they were wrong
That living look into your face
You were as good as gone.

I paid the price with only this
I need you to return
How long must my soul
Inside me burn?

I don't wanna lose you somewhere in the night
I don't wanna use you we should make it right
'Cause that's the way that it's supposed to be
It should be as a stare of you and me.

Two hearts, one love.

I wonder what you're thinking of
I hope I'm on your mind
You know I'm crazy for you, babe
And I'm the jealous kind.

So take away my doubts and fears
And tell me where you are
We've come too far
To let love fall apart.

I don't wanna lose you somewhere in the night
I don't wanna use you we should make it right
'Cause that's the way that it's supposed to be
It should be as a stare of you and me.

Two hearts, one love.

So please, don't let our love just come undone
We gotta get back where we started from
Two hearts, one love.

I don't wanna lose you somewhere in the night
I don't wanna use you we should make it right
'Cause that's the way that it's supposed to be
It should be as a stare of you and me.

Two hearts, one love...

I took your love as desperate measure
Seeking shelter from another lonely night
You took my love seeking only pleasure
But the feeling passes and the passion doesn't last.

And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just feel the seasons, as they touch another year.
And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just know what is now, and what could never be.

Will the memories fade or will they linger?
Will we live forever for a moment we can keep?
Now we stand alone
(Why don't you do what you told me)
Where we stood together
(I only wanted you to hold me)
How did we ever let this dream slip through our hand
(How did we ever let this dream slip through our hand).

And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just feel the seasons, as they touch another year.
And I don't wanna know why, I don't want no reasons
I just know what is now, and what could never be...

I think of all the times, I needed you
And you would come to me, 'cos you wanted too
And we built the fire that would last thro' the night
Still be burnin' in the morning light.

Oh, it must've had a thousand ways
Of takin' our breath away
We took a chance or two, didn't we?
And made some mountains move, oh, didn't we?

From out of the blue storm clouds came
And it started rainin', we just let it rain
Oh, it must've been a careless love
Oh, it had to be a careless love.

Satin sheets
And no regrets
We had it baby
We had the best, didn't we?.

And every now and then I let my feelings show
And tho' takes me a while just to let you go
'Cause you were more than a lover and more than a friend
Never before and never again.

Oh, it must've been a careless love
Oh, it had to be a careless love.

Satin sheets
And no regrets
We had it baby
We had the best, didn't we?.

Oh, it ought to be 'you and me'
Oh, we had a good, didn't we?
Didn't we, didn't we?...

I never thought that it would end this way
Somehow it'd always go home
And yet this morning when I reached for her
She was gone.
I never asked for any promises
I knew she'd always be there
I swear somebody must be loving at me somewhere.

Love, love
Somebody took my love, love
How can this be?
She said: she'd always be there for me
Love, love
Somebody took my love, love
We set us free
You don't know what she means to me.

I never saw a single morning sun
When did it catch her her heart
How could I ever have let him break us apart.
I feel so helpless and so out of touch
There's no escape in this pain
But in my heart I know
She can't be the one to blame.

Love, love
Somebody took my love, love
How can this be?
She said: she'd always be there for me
Love, love
Somebody took my love, love
We set us free
You don't know what she means to me.

So cold, spending my nights alone
Somebody hears me calling your name
Somebody sent you home...

Girl, there are no words to say
what I feel in my heart
you, you're on my mind night and day
and it hurts me when we're apart
when you're not here by my side
there is nothing in this world for me.

I guess I'm crazy
crazy for you can't you see
although you may think it's crazy
here it's where I want to be
I will always need your love.

Well now, I can see every dream
when I look in your eyes
and though, things never are what they seem
there is one thing that I realize
that there's no doubt in my mind
we can make this love go on forever.

I guess I'm crazy
crazy for you can't you see
although you may think it's crazy
here it's where I'll always be
and I need you with me

Cos you are the dream
that finally came true in me
in all my life there'll be no one else
if I looked all my life
there could be no one else
and for the rest of my life

Stranger I know where you'll find her
Down the road from here about a mile and a quarter.
You'll know the place by a shackey barn
That stands in the field by a run-down farm
By a pond, filled up with stagnant water.

Then you'll see a shack nearby, you'll ask yourself
I wonder why it looks so cold, and lifeless all around.
Chimney rocks are fallin' out,it looks as though
The fire's gone out and the biggest part
Of the house is rotted down.

Though Stranger, I ain't seen her lately.
She don't come around here like she used to.
You've got her pictured in your mind,
Pretty, gentle, sweet and kind,
You've practiced every word you're gonna say.

You'll call her name, but she won't hear you,
She's in the graveyard near you.
She died ten years ago, last May.

There was a man she talked about,
A man she had to live without.
Years ago, he just turned and left one day.
He left her with an unborn child,
And a love for him that never died,
And an aching heart,
That sent her to an early grave.

Yes, Stranger I know who you are,
I recognized you from afar,
But you ain't never seen me,
Not one time.
Yes, I know that you're my dad,
From pictures that my Momma had.
And it was me and Momma that you left behind.

Stranger, you will find her there,
In a peaceful sleep on yonder hill.
Where we once walked, as I do still...
To pick her flowers from the field.

Momma don't need you anymore,
And I don't need you like before,
You can go on back to where you went before...
You're just a stranger.

What we're looking at here is a harder situation
Let me make it quite clear
There must be no hesitation
Either you're with me or you're not
Are we gonna lose a love we got?

When I called you last night
Words got tangled in the wires
It was hanging me up
Wondering which one was the liar
But if you want honesty from me
This is the way it's got to be, ooh.

Heart to heart we should be
Like a melody in harmony
Heart to heart, can't you see
We're a rhapsody, baby, you and me
Heart to heart, heart to heart to heart.

Open your eyes
Can't you see that you're in danger
Say it goodbye, turning lovers into strangers
We'd be fools if let this go
And all we gotta do is let the feelings flow, ooh.

Heart to heart we should be
Like a melody in harmony
Heart to heart, can't you see
We're a rhapsody, baby, you and me
Heart to heart, heart to heart to heart...

Hurting one another is the easy thing to do
You turn your back on love and walk away
We can make it right, we can start tonight
If you only knew it's right before your eyes
When will you realize?
