Reba McEntire Album

(feat. LeAnn Rimes)

Girl it ain't right, it just ain't right, don't tell yourself that it was you.
You followed your heart, you gave it your best, there's nothing more you can do.
Guys like him, are like the wind and you know it's just too bad.
They go in and out again and never know what they had.
Girl I can tell you he'll do the same to someone else,
It ain't about you, so dont be so hard on yourself.

'Cause when you love (when you love)
When you love someone like that, when you give what you can't take back.
When you love (when you love)
With all your heart and soul, it's so hard to let it go
Oh when you love someone like that (when you love someone like that)
Oh when you love someone like that

Oh, we've all loved and lost, it's happened to us all
(I hear what you say but I feel like the only one)

(feat. Ronnie Dunn)

[Reba:]
LA's a fast horse daddy
Everybody rides
I'm sorry I haven't called home lately
Out here time flies
I met a boy a few weeks back
He plays in a band
He's a whole lot like you daddy you're gonna like him
He's a good man
At times lonley sneaks up on me
But I'm getting by
Yeah I know what you've always told me
Cow girls don't cry

[Chorus:]
But does the wind still blow in oklahoma
Out here the hollywood stars sure shine bright
It's such a long way from home here in California
Missin you and that blue wide open sky

[Ronnie:]
Out here it's all freeway fast cars
Cold concrete
You won't believe all the crazy people
Bally girls sun sets free
I met a girl you're gonna like her mama
She has your hair
Red as the telecross sunset
Seems like an angel I swear
I can't say I don't get lonsome
But I'm alright
Cow boys kinda go with homesick
Like blue moons and whipperwill nights

[Chorus]

(feat. Kelly Clarkson)

[Reba:]
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

[Reba & Kelly:]
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
[Reba:]
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
[Reba & Kelly:]
Because of you
I am afraid

[Kelly:]
I loose my way
And it's not too long (before you point it out)[Reba & Kelly]
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness [in your eyes][Reba & Kelly]
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

[Reba & Kelly:]
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
[Reba:]
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
[Reba & Kelly:]
Because of you
I am afraid

[Reba:]
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
(I watched you die...)[Kelly]
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
(I was too young for you to lean on me...)[Kelly]
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
(You never saw me...)[Kelly]
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

[Reba:]
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me
Because of you [Reba & Kelly]
I am afraid

[Reba:]
Because of you...
[Kelly:]
Mmmmmm... Oooooh...
[Reba:]
Because of you...
[Kelly:]
Mmmmmm... Oooooh...

(feat. Rascal Flatts)

[Reba:]
We felt this coming on
We've seen it for a while
But there are no regrets between us
We can leave here with a smile
We have to talk about it
What we've always known
The hardest part about today
Is tonight we'll be alone
Alone

[Chorus:]
We were just two hearts
Bound for different roads
Oh why they didn't lead us to forever
We may never know
[Reba:] oh I will carry you with me
[Gary:] I will hold on to our memories
[Reba:] don't let the dreams we didn't find
[Together:] make you feel like giving up
[Reba:] keep holding on and
[Together:] don't lose your faith in love

[Gary:]
Life's gonna move on
And the pages start to turn
We'll be stronger people now
From the lessons that we've learned
This one's gonna hurt
It's a little deeper break
But just know I'm praying for you
As I watch you walk away

[Chorus:]
We were just two hearts
Bound for different road
Why they didn't lead us to forever
We may never know
[Reba:] oh I will carry you with me
[Gary:] I will hold on to our memories
[Reba:] don't let the dreams we didn't find
[Together:] make you feel like giving up
[Gary:] keep holding on and
[Together:] don't lose your faith
[Gary:]in love

[Reba:] it can hold you, it can save you
[Gary:] from anything or anyone
[Reba:] heaven knows who's waiting for you
[Gary:] when two hearts come undone

[Bridge:]
[Reba:] oh I will carry you with me
[Gary:] I will hold on to our memories
[Together:] don't let the dreams we didn't find
Make you feel like giving up
[Gary:] keep holding on and
Don't lose your faith
[Reba:] oh never ever lose your faith

[Together:] in love

[Reba:] don't ever lose your faith

(feat. Trisha Yearwood)

She can hear his car, as it pulls in the drive.
She can whisper a prayer: "Thank God, he's alive."
She can meet him at the door; catch him when he falls.
She can even believe that it isn't his fault.
But she can't save him

She can make his coffee, in the cold light of day.
She can make his excuses: tell the boss he'll be late.
She can wave at the neighbours, then kiss him goodbye,
And not say a word 'bout what happened last night.
But she can't save him.

Sometimes she dreams that he's caught in a stream,
And the water keeps pulling him down.
She reaches for him, as he pulls her in.
She wakes just before she drowns.

She can remember the man that he was,
And still shed a tear for what he's become.
She can live in that house until the day,
She sees that it's only herself she can save.
But she can't save him.

And that day she'll know she hasn't failed,
'Cause nothing can change until he saves himself.

No, she can't save him.
No, she can't save him.
No, she can't save him.

(feat. Carole King)

College Kids turning twenty-one
And their senior year spring break was here
They headed south.. but not for sun
On their skin where the storms had been

It was hard
Fixing windows and shigles and doors
And the tide never felt so good before

[Chorus:]
Everyday People are the ones who are making miracles
And it's beautiful
Everyday People lifting up the world
Like an answered prayer
I thank God their there
They're the one's who care
Everyday People

Doctor said "Good News we caught it soon enough, we can clear this up"
But she's 30 and single with two kids to raise
Times are tough these days
So her friends made some calls and the word spread around
How her bills got paid she don't know how

[Chorus]

A little girl takes her Mama's hand
And walks inside saying "Please don't cry"
As the people who built this house just for them
Laugh through the tears as a family moves in

[Chorus]

(feat. Kenny Chesney)

[Reba:]
Every other Friday
It's toys and clothes and backpacks
Is everybody in,
Okay, let's go see dad
Same time in the same spot
Corner of the same old parking lot
Half the hugs and kisses there are always sad
We tradecouple words and looks and kids again
Every Other weekend

[Kenny:]
Every other weekend
Very few exceptions,
I pick up the love we made in both my arms
It's movies on the sofa, grilled cheese and cut the crust off
"That's not the way mom makes it, daddy," breaks my heart
I miss everything I use to have with her again,
Every other weekend

[Kenny:]
I cant tell her I love her

[Reba:]
I can't tell him I love him

[Both:]
'Cause there's too many questions and years in the car

[Reba:]
So I don't tell him I miss him

[Kenny:]
I don't tell her I need her

[Both:]
She's(He's) over me, that's where we are

[Kenny:]
So we're as close as we may ever be again
Every other weekend

[Reba:]
Every other Saturday
First thing in the morning
I turn the TV on to make the quiet go away
I know why, but I don't know why
We ever let this happen
Fallin' for forever was a big mistake
There's so much not to do and all day not to do with him
Every other weekend

[Kenny:]
Every other Sunday
I empty out my backseat
While my children hug their mother
In the parking lot
We don't touch,
We don't talk much,
Maybe goodbye to each other
As she drives away with every piece of heart I got,
I reconvince myself we did the right thing,
Every other weekend

[Kenny:]
I can't tell her I love her

[Reba:]
I can't tell him I love him

[Both:]
'Cause there's too many questions and years in the car

[Reba:]
So I don't tell him I miss him

[Kenny:]
I don't tell her I need her

[Both:]
She's(He's) over me that's where we are
We're as close as we may ever be again
Every other weekend

[Kenny:]
Yeah, for fifteen minutes,
We're a family again

[Reba:]
God, I wish that he was still with me again

[Kenny:]
Every other weekend

(feat. Vince Gill)
(Vince Gill, Pete Wasner)

Baby, let's just say farewell
Baby, let's just both give in
No, it's not too hard to tell
The walls are closin' in

Oh, it's time to say goodbye
And put this in the past
Even though I know we tried
To save the best for last

[Chorus:]
I guess nothin' stays the same
Still the memories remain
We need all the sweet forgiveness we can find
There's a sadness in the wind
Oh, I wish you well my friend
Only time will mend these broken hearts again

I don't know what's left to say
I don't know where we went wrong
When I watch you walk away
I'll miss you when you're gone

Baby, shed a tear for me
And I'll she da tear for you
Oh, let's set this heartache free
And in time we'll make it through, well

[Chorus]

There's a sadness in the wind
Oh, I wish you well my friend
Only time will mend these broken hearts again

(feat. Faith Hill)

I knew who he was
When I took his name
But some how no one
Is just not the same at night
He knows the danger
But he does what he does
He calls it duty
But I call it love
So here I am
While he's gone
To some foreign land

And I cry
Because I'm alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he won't come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone

The yellow ribbon on my neighbor's gate
Always reminds me that someone's awake
Just like me
I hear the sirens
And I watch the news
He laughs and leaves with his gun
And his blue uniform
And I pray God keeps him safe from harm

And I cry
Because I'm alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he won't come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone

I loose him in my darkest dreams
And my blood runs cold and my heart skips a beat
So I get up; I can't take anymore
Sometimes I hate how much I love him
But everyday I love him more

And I try not to think he won't come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone

Something wakes me from where he should be
I reach for him; the telephone rings

(feat. Justin Timberlake)

[Reba:]
When the ground beneath you starts a shaking
Shaking
And you forget the place we came from
Came from
When your lost and looking for a way home
Your way home to me
I'll come out and find you
When the world around you starts a moving
Moving
And you should wonder if I still love you
Love you
If you feel a darkness coming
Rising inside
I'll make a light to guide you back home

[Together:]
And after all the sky is falling down
And after all the waters washed away
My love's the only promise that remains

[Reba:]
When your doubts have got you thinking
Thinking
Nothings ever really sacred
Sacred
[Together:] and you're afraid you might believe it

Believe in me
And I'll give you a region
Cause the world around us keeps on moving
Moving
[Reba:] and there's no doubt that
[Together:] I still love you
Love you
So when you feel a darkness coming
Rising inside
I'll make a light to guide you back home

[Together:]
And after all the sky is falling down
And after all the waters washed away
My love's the only promise that remains

[Reba:]
And after all the sky is falling down
[Justin:]
After all the sky is falling down
[Reba:]
And after all the waters washed away
[Justin:] after all the waters washed away
[Together:]
My love's the only promise that remains
Remains

(feat. Don Henley)

Do you still drink whiskey?
Can I buy you a round?
If nobody's sitting here, do you mind if I sit down?
I was nervous when I saw you
I almost walked away
And now I can't believe what I'm about to say

These arms want to hold you
These lips want to kiss you
These eyes are glad to see you
Well baby I miss you
Let's drive each other crazy
Like we did back then
Why don't we get together
And break each other's hearts again?

Maybe I've had one too many
I don't want to say too much
We both know the reasons
Why we didn't keep in touch
We're no good for each other
Still it's hard to let it go
I'm trying to be strong, but babe you've got to know

These arms want to hold you
These lips want to kiss you
These eyes are glad to see you
Baby, I miss you
Let's drive each other crazy
Like we did back then
Why don't we get together
And break each others hearts again?

Loving you should be the last thing on my mind
It feels so good to let you hurt me one more time.

These arms want to hold you
These lips want to kiss you
These eyes are glad to see you
Well baby I miss you
Let's drive each other crazy
Like we did back then
Why don't we get together
And break each others hearts again?
