How do two people like us ever happen to meet
I think about that
Was the timing just right
Was it just that the night was so sweet
I think about that
Is it chemical, physical
What was the deal
Or did some kind of magic
Turn out to be real
Course: Might be how you kiss and hold me tight
When we’re walking honey
Underneath the moonlight
Might be how it keeps on getting better
Haven’t even talked about forever
I just know that
We’re so good together
When did we cross that line
And just happen to find were in love
I think about that
Was it you
Was it me
Who could see we turned out to be us
I think about that
We could spend all our time
Trying to figure it out
And not be any closer than we are right now
Course: Might be how you kiss and hold me tight
When we’re walking honey
Underneath the moonlight
Might be how it keeps on getting better
Haven’t even talked about forever
I just know that
We’re so good together
Oh baby
Might be how you kiss and hold me tight
When we’re walking honey
Underneath the moonlight
Might be how it keeps on getting better
Haven’t even talked about forever
We may never
Baby whatever
I just know that
We’re so good together
Oh, so good together
So good together
So good together
So good together
So good together
So good together

Saturday night
Out on the town
Feeling so sure of myself
Meeting some friends
Sharing some laughs
Not thinking of anything else
Then one of them leaned over my shoulder
And all at once the party was over

Chorus:
They asked about you
And suddenly it all came back to me
Then all the walls around my heart
Came crashing at my feet
When they asked about you
(Oh) They asked about you
I was doing OK
Until they asked about you

How could they know
What it would do
All they did was mention your name
And just like that
The hurting was back
That's when I knew nothing had changed
What a time for old memories to find me
Just when I thought I'd put 'em behind me

Repeat Chorus

. . .


I was born three months too early
The doctor gave me thirty days
But I must've had my momma's will
And God's amazing grace

I guess I'll keep on living
Even if this love's to die for
Cause your bags are packed
And I ain't crying
You're walkin out
And I'm not trying
To change your mind 'Cause I was born to be

Chorus:
The baby girl without a chance
A victim of circumstance
The one who ought to give up
But she's just to hard headed
A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stops
With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor

I don't believe in self pity
It only brings you down
Maybe the Queen of broken hearts
But I don't hide behind the crown
When the deck is stacked against me
I just play a different game
My roots are planted in the past
And though my life is changin' fast
Who I am is who I wanna be

Chorus:
The baby girl with out a chance
A victim of circumstance
The one who oughta give up,
but she's just too hard headed
A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stops
With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor

ooohhh A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stops
With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor

But I must've had my momma's will
And God's amazing grace (I'm a survivor)

(I'm a survivor)

Stuck at a red light outside an adult book store
His son said "Daddy, what are all those X's for?"
As the light turned green he changed the subject fast
Started talking 'bout football, as they drove right past

So what do you say, in a moment like this?
When you can't find the words
Oh To tell it like it is
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way
Let's get outta here
Oh, what do you say?

Seventeen years old, she was out with her friends
They started drinkin at some party
Till she was three sheets to the wind
Her momma always told her she could call no matter what
She was cryin' on the front steps
When her mom showed up

But what do you say, in a moment like this?
When you can't find the words
Oh ,To tell it like it is
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way
Let's get outta here
Oh, what do you say?

Sometimes you've gotta listen to the silence
and give youself a little time to think

Her every breath is weaker than the last
And lately, when she sleeps, she talks about the past
Her husband knows she's tired of holding on
She looks at him and says "I wanna go home..."

But what do you say, in a moment like this?
When you can't find the words
To tell it like it is?
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way
Oh, what do you say?

Ohhhhh, just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way
Oh, what do you say?
Oh, what do you say?

. . .


What you want
Baby, I got it

And find out I'm gone (just a little bit)
I got to have (just a little bit)
A little respect (just a little bit)

Don't you know
That you're the one
I'd like to live my life through
I can't see anyone with me but you

I want to go where you go
And share the things you do
For I've waited all my life for you
I've heard tales
That true love comes
Only once in a life time
And this time is the last time for me
For I just can't imagine
Being in love with someone new
'Cause I've waited all my life for you

So here it is
All the love
That I've saved for a lifetime
Never touched
Never crushed
And never used
And to think that I'd ever find you
It's impossible but true
'Cause I've waited all my life for you
Oh I just can't imagine
Being in love with someone new
'Cause I've waited all my life for you

He was always Santa Claus to them
Every year he'd magically appear here in our den
They would laugh and tease and say you look a lot like Dad
He'd just smile and ask, "Have you been good or bad?"

Oh, but life ain't always like a holiday
Some things change, and sometimes people go their seperate ways
He just called and said he'd like to be here for the kids
Wish them Merry Christmas when they open up their gifts
And even though it might be hard on me
How can I let them down?
So Santa Claus is coming back to town

Here it is Christmas Eve - the kids are sleeping
Lights flashing in the trees - I keep thinking
Tomorrow I'll see him, tomorrow I'll see him

I guess I ought to try to go to bed
I can't rehearse tomorrow any longer in my head
He'll walk in so nonchalant, as if he'd never gone
They'll be glad to see him, I'll be barely hanging on
And just like that he'll go and turn my whole world upside down
Santa Claus is coming back to town

No it's never really easy when this time of year rolls around
'Cause Santa Claus is coming back to town


. . .


All the girls I grew up with
Got a husband house and kids
That's what everybody did after school
If I'd had a steady boyfriend
I mighta stuck around like them but
Back then I never had a reason to

L.A.'s like another planet
Had to live there to understand it
And I thought when I first landed that California's cool
Till I saw good girls gettin' outta control
Endin' up sellin' their souls
Oh no I never had a reason to

Chorus:
I never had a reason to stay
To not walk away
Nobody's heart was gonna break over me
I never had somethin' worth keepin'
Or somebody I needed
Like I'm needin' you
Baby don't you see it's true
I never had a reason to believe in love

To some love comes as a vision
To some it's a sweet baptism
Me and love had a head on collision
When I ran into you
Got some feelings I'm figurin' out
No I don't know exactly how
Until now I never had a reason to

Repeat Chorus (leave off "in love")

Repeat Chorus


. . .


Thousands of people
Live in this town
And I had to run into him
When I saw him there
On that busy street
Those feelings came back again

There was no where to run
No where to hide
He walked up to me
Looked in my eyes

And still
The world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him
Still

He said how've you been
It's great to see you again
You're really a sight for sore eyes
I said I can't complain
Oh, I'm doin' fine
We talked
As the people rushed by

We laughed about old times
And all we went through
That's when he hugged me
And said I've missed you

And still
The world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him
Still

That's when she walked up to him
He said this is my wife
I gave my best smile
But I was dying inside
He said we gotta go now
It's getting late
It was so good to see you
And then they walked away

And still
My world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him.....
Still

. . .


Let me try to explain
It's not the roses or champagne
That really touch my heart
How can I make you see
That you're the best at loving me
When you don't know you are

CHORUS:
Baby it's the way that you reach out while you're sleepin'
And gently hold my hand the whole night through
It's how you listen when I'm pouring out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to

You don't need to rehearse
Some sweet romantic words
To whisper in my ear
So just forget the poetry
What comes naturally
Is what I long to hear

Repeat Chorus

It's in your eyes
And in your smile
In the passion of your kiss
It's takin' me in your arms so easily
So easily

It's how you listen when I'm pourin' out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to


. . .


I guess I'm just one of those
Who believes there has to be a reason
For living and breathing
Every time you pull me close
Something tells me there'll be no more reaching
You're everything I'm needing
Oh, I don't know how it happened, I never thought I would
Find someone to complete me
Oh, I just can't explain it, this feeling that I get
Oh, ain't no way to name it, but I'm thinking baby

CHORUS:
Maybe it's the way you look at me
Like there'll never be another
I get swept away, baby when
We get so caught up in each other
I don't know where you end and I begin
Where you end and I begin

All it takes is just one kiss
I just wanna get lost in this emotion
Like the river and the ocean
Oh, when you wrap your arms around me, it happens every time
Time don't seem to matter
We'll always be together, I don't know what it is
That tells me it's forever
but I'm thinking baby

Repeat Chorus

. . .


Reba
Outside the rain begins and it may never end.
So cry no more on the shore a dream will take us out to sea.
Forevermore, forevermore.
Close your eyes and dream and you can be with me.
Neath the waves, through the caves of hours.
Long forgotten now.

Chorus
We're all alone, we're all alone.
Close the window,
calm the lights and it will be allright.
No need to bother now.
Let it out, let it all begin.
And learn how to pretend.

Jose and Durval
Repetido ya. Lo antiguo pasara.
Fue amor, amantes y dolor.
Con el viento al volor. Abracame. O abracame.
Sin mirar vuelve a vivir.
Ambos sonando asi.
Sin importarnos mas.
Deja ya, regresa a vivir.
Empieza a disfrutar.
Solo yo, sola tu.

Reba
Close the window, calm the lights.

Jose and Durval
Ambos sonando asi. Sin importarnos mas.

Reba
Let it out,
let it all begin.

Jose and Durval
Empieza na disfrutar amor.

Reba
Hold me dear.
All's forgotten
now. My love.

Jose and Durval
Olvidados ya.
