Tears roll down my face
Smiles can't take their place
Living down hanging around try to understand
All you gotta do is hold my hand

You don't understand
Try to see the plan
Cause if you start to fall into the things you did before
You ain't gonna see me anymore

And it's high time you got something going
Everything you did till now is wrong
Look like my time I'd should be a knowing
I should find out before too long

And it's high time you got something going
Everything you did till now was wrong
Looks like my time It should be a showin'
I should find out before too long
I should find out before too long

. . .


I can see you smile almost every day
Lookin' back a while to find another way
Get your favors done Thought I was the one
But you see I've just begun to look the other way

Won't you take it before you go then you won't have to let me know
What you didn't want to say
If you take it before you go then you won't have to let me know
What you really had to pay

Thinking back again... Looking way back then
I can still remember when you'd open up and say
I didn't think you could... Now I think you should
If you're lookin' half as good as you did yesterday

Won't you take it before you go then you won't have to let me know
What you didn't want to say
If you take it before you go then you won't have to let me know
What you really had to pay

Thinkin' back some more... I see you lookin' through the door
But it just ain't like before I need to learn another way
If I thought I could... don't cha know I surely would
Thought it straight to be so good... I need to find another way
To hear you say ya' didn't really like it but I think you're gonna have to

Take it before you go then you won't have to let me know
What you didn't want to say
If you take it before you go then you won't have to let me know
What you really had to pay

Sittin' in Ellenwood gardens... sittin' in the sherwood mall
Wonderin' if it really matters... wonderin' if it is at all
Used to be so good... somethin' new inside me every day, looks like

La la la la la la la... You're between me
La la la la la la la... Right between me
La la la la la la la... You're between me... and what I wanna be

Sittin' on McKenzie river... listen to McKendree spring
Tryin' to get into heaven... tryin' to get into almost everything now
Used to be so good... somethin' new inside me every day, looks like

La la la la la la la... You're between me
La la la la la la la... it's just that you ain't seen me
La la la la la la la... You're between me... and what I wanna be

La la la la la la la... You're between me
La la la la la la la... it's just that you ain't seen me
La la la la la la la... You're between me... and what I wanna be

Sittin' on McKenzie river... listen to McKendree spring, they're so godamn good
Tryin' to get into heaven... tryin' to get into almost everything now
Used to be so good... somethin' new inside me every day

La la la la la la la... You're between me
La la la la la la la... it's just that you ain't seen me
La la la la la la la... You're between me... and what I wanna be
La la la la la la la...
La la la la la la la... lookin' like it
La la la la la la la... sittin' down gettin' right down to it
La la la la la la la...

La la la la la la la... You're between me
La la la la la la la... as if you ain't seen me
La la la la la la la... You're between me... and what I wanna be

Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me
Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me

Of all the people that I meet.. faces passin' on the street
The terms of life so incomplete and all the world lies at my feet alone
And every day remains the same.. there's no one there to call my name
Who's to stand behind my fame to me your eyes can show no pain anymore

Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me
Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me

Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me
Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me

I'm much too old to hesitate.. to stand behind and decide to wait
Know youve seen your mind and its great sorry girl you're too damn late youre alone

Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me
Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me
Time's so short please woman wear your hair down for me

I wanted a mountain and you brought one to me
I wanted a mountain and you made one mine
I wanted a mountain... now I must learn to climb... and it's that
Same old... country song... bringin' you back to me

I wanted the sunlight and you let it shine
I wanted the sunlight and you brought it to me
I wanted the sunlight... now I must learn to see... and it's that
Same old... country song... bringin' you back to me

From the highest mountain... to the lowest valley
I'm up on a cloud now... down... down on my knees... and it's that
Same old... country song... bringin' you back to me

I wanted a river and you let one flow
I wanted a river and you brought one to me
I wanted a river... now I must find the sea... and it's that
Same old... country song... bringin' you back to me... it's that
Same old... country song... bringin' you back to me... it's that
Same old... country song... bringin' you back to me

. . .


You used to tell me that you knew me pretty well
Well that's all changed and I'm just not the same
Caught in the middle cause I'm rushed just a little and I don't know why
There's gotta be just a little more than all this pain
This Ohio life is killin' me my strength is gone I got no more to spare
So you can take this for what it's worth I don't care singing

Brand new harmony songs almost every day singing
Brand new harmony songs... since you went away

I couldn't understand the situation we were living in
It seemed like every day we spent was wrong
All your feelin's and your night time dealin's and the way they brought me down
I just don't see why we let it go so long
You're so far away now that I won't see your face no more
If you're ever lookin' back to stay
Stand back and take a good look it just might take your breath away singing

Brand new harmony songs almost every day yeah singing
Brand new harmony songs... since you went away

It was all wrong but we couldn't think about it cause it took too long
It's alright I'm up every night wonderin' what you're thinkin' about me

Sometimes I get to feelin' that I need you here
It goes by so quickly it just don't pay
Cause with the new impressions these late night sessions scuze me I'll be fine
I just can't see it any other way
You know I'm right here tellin' you the things we never took the time to say singin'

Brand new harmony songs almost every day yeah singin'
Brand new harmony songs... since you went away... singin'

Brand new harmony songs almost every day yeah singin'
Brand new harmony songs almost every day yeah singin'
Brand new harmony songs almost every day

Babe's done got himself down again
Thinkin' rain an' wait a storm for washin' the land

Mercy worked lord and changed his name
Baptized for grain and religion didn't grow no seeds and it's all on me

Half the time I'm medlin' with a shotgun and a scarecrow
My friend the evenin' finds me alone

Half the time I'm medlin' with a shotgun and a scarecrow
My friend the evenin' finds me alone

Wake up take down all I have
For feedin' my calves and the hounds a bayin' at the back door
All day frettin' and stackin' hay
And keep a bed for our corn is dyin' in the fields
Change from scorchin' sun...
Switch the crops for the land to please and it's all o
