Why Do I Have To Be Alone Tonight

You say, love can conquer it all, all your fears
You live it daily, and you've shed the tears, I've seen you cry
You didn't think It'd work out this way, never thought there'd be an easier way, of thinkin' you'd leave me alone, so tell me.

Why do I have to be alone tonight, when all I want is to be with you.
Will I really have to sell my soul tonight, to buy a little time with you

In time, all will be given to you.
In your dreams, I'll only spend days with you.
You search for the balance of love and waste, I may not be that true in my haste, of thinking you'd leave me alone. So tell me...

Why do I have to be alone tonight, when all I want is to be with you.
Will I really have to sell my soul tonight, to buy a little time with you, oh no...
Don't you leave me alone.
Girl when you've gone away,
I can't make it alone.

(guitar solo)

So tell me...
Why do I have to be alone tonight, when all I want is to be with you.
Will I really have to sell my soul tonight, to buy a little time with you.
Will I really have to sell my soul.
To find it and make you whole.
Will I really have to sell my soul.
To have you again, baby.

Why do I have to be alone tonight.
Will I really have to sell my soul tonight.
Why do I have to be alone tonight.
Will I really have to sell my soul tonight.

Be As You Are

With the bottle half tilted, as my life is growing old.
Trudging on to tomorrow searchin' for that pot of gold.
I'd love to make a difference, I'd love to see you try.
I'm looking for the answers in you... for you.

I hate to watch you suffer in this single life you lead.
Knowing you don't understand what's goin' on.
I hate to see you anguish, with the demons left inside.
I only want to set them free...Set them free.

No one wants to listen to the things that I can say.
They don't think that I speak the truth.
Nothin seems to matter, when it comes to me and you.
Don't know if you'll go or you'll stay, you're a thousand miles away.

Baby come back, let me heal your worried mind.
Baby come back, or you won't understand my happiness.
Come back, but be as you are.
Be as you are.

(guitar solo)

Yesterday was different, will tomorrow be the same.
You're always on a search for the truth.
What you find in Jesus, may not be just what you need.
You've got to find the answers in you.

Baby come back, let me heal your worried mind.
Baby come back, or you won't understand my happiness.
Come back, but be as you are.
Be as you are.
Be as you are.

Make A Little Time

Well sometimes you walk, sometimes you run
still you make a little time, for a little bit of fun,
Hey Baby! Won't you make a little time for me.

Sometimes you're big, sometimes you're small
Sometimes you look like nothin' at all
Hey Baby! Won't you make a little time for me.

Well you just look like a girl from a dirty little magazine.
You won't talk to nobody, you don't even want to know his name, his name.
A little bit of time, a whole lot of money.

(guitar solo)

Well, sometimes you look, sometime you don't
Sometimes you will and sometimes you won't.
Hey Baby! Won't you make a little time for me.
One day you'll see what it's all about,
you can check him goin' in and he'll watch you goin' out
Hey Baby! Won't you make a little time for me

When you look at a man you think he's gonna have to play your game.
When you turn you head his way you think he's never gonna be the same.
The Same! A little bit of time, a whole lot of money,
there ain't no happiness there for ya honey,

Hey Baby! don't you waste your time on me....on me

Arizona

Lookin' at the Arizona sunset, watchin' life just pass me by.
Thinkin' of my lover in Virginia, knowin' I can't say goodbye.
I see my life right here before me, knowing sh can have my way.
Lover in my dreams at night time, could I bring her here to stay.

She's spreading out her wings to me, as she guides my way.
I'm reaching toward the heavens, in a most peculiar way.
It's so easy to call you home, Arizona, Arizona.

Wishin' I could stay in this place forever, maybe then my dreams would all come true.
Giving all my life to you completely, could I bring it home to you.

She's spreading out her wings to me, as she guides my way.
I'm reaching toward the heavens, in a most peculiar way.
It's so easy to call you home, Arizona, Arizona.

It's so easy to call you home Arizona
It's so easy to call you home Arizona
It's so easy to call you home Arizona
It's so easy to call you home
It's so easy to call you home
It's so easy to call you home, Arizona

Crazy

When I think of you I go crazy, I can't get you off of my mind
I'm givin all my love to you baby, won't ever leave your tender soul behind, no...

When I think of lovin' you, when you cross my mind, I think of all the love that you give
Hopin' that you'll love me forever, or just as long as we both shall live.

I can't live without you girl, I've got the kind of love you can win.
Tell me how I can relate to your heart, tell me where this love should begin

When I think of you I go crazy, I can't get you off of my mind
I'm givin all my love to you baby, won't ever leave your tender soul behind

I can't live without you girl, I've got the kind of love you can win.
Tell me how I can relate to your heart, tell me where this love should begin

Crazy, Crazy, Crazy... I go crazy... for you.

Take Me To The Mountains

I want you to love me, love me some more
I want you to treat me, like you never treated anyone before.
Take me to the mountains. Take me to the sea. Take me anywhere you wanna,
but don't set me free...don't set me free.

Last time I saw you, momma, you were lookin' so good.
You rocked me and rolled me and broke down and told me, and asked if I would.
Take you to the mountains, take you to the sea, I'll take you anywhere you wanna,
but don't set me free...don't set me free.

(guitar solo)

I want you to love me, baby love me some more
I want you to treat me, come on moma, like you never treated anyone before.
Take me to the mountains. Take me to the sea. Take me anywhere you wanna,
but don't set me free...don't set me free, moma don't set me free, don't set me free.

Wasted Time

Well I'm livin' now, on borrwed time, never thinkin about what it really is.
Well I'm livin now on borrowed time, never thinking about what it really is.
Well round and round and round we go, where it stops well no one knows,
still can see the evil in your eyes.
Every move you made on me reminds me how it used to be, you can't seem get me under your spell.

Well I'm livin now, on wasted time never thinkin' about you and me as one.
Well I'm livin now, on wasted time never thinkin' about you and me as one.
All along the lines we go, crossing into things unknown, livin every day like it's my last.
I'm shaking from the extacy of being where I want to be.
Knowing I can make it on my own, on my own.

Well I'm livin now, on wasted time
Well I'm livin now, on wasted time

Livin' now on wasted time, wastin' all my precious time, waiting for the everything, that I wish I could be.
Livin' now on wasted time, wastin' all my precious time, livin' now on wasted time, Wasted Time!

That's How It Feels

I wanna thank you when I hold your hand.
I wanna thank you girl for letting me be your man.
I wanna kiss you when you're fast asleep, and hold you til the sunrise brings us back here again.
Even when you're miles away I can feel you, holding me tight, cause that's how it feels
Even in the stars above I can see you, shining down on me, cause that's how it feels
To be in love.

I wanna touch you when I look in your eyes, I wanna fly away with you, up through the skies.
I know you love me cause you say it's so, so hold me close tonight and don't let it go.

Even when the skies are grey you can heal me, pulling me along, makin' me strong.
Even when I feel the blues you can soothe me, comforting me, cause that's how it feels.
To be in love.

Through the long stormy nights, through the wrongs and the rights, you know we'll be together through thick and thin.
Through the long lonely days, whoah in oh so many ways, I'll love you baby until the end.

I wanna thank you when I hold your hand.
I wanna thank you girl for letting me be your man.
I wanna kiss you when you're fast asleep, and hold you til the sunrise brings us back
here again.
Even when you're miles away I can feel you, holding me tight, cause that's how it feels
Even in the stars above I can see you, shining down on me, cause that's how it feels
To be in love.
To be in love.

Seque

On a starry night once not so long ago, off to see a friend of mine.
She sat there shining as the water brushed her lips, knowing she'd always be fine.
I climb aboard her and my heart begins to feel, she can tell it won't be long.
Push away now as her body starts to swell, knowing now we can't go wrong.

Now the moonlight starts to play her song.
Now we're moving out to sea, sailin' to another day, on the Segue, she's the Segue.

Through the channels narrow winding throught the night, she seems to know the only way.
Past the fortress where so many men have died, and lived to fight another day.

Now the wind picks up and brings me to my knees, there's still some sailing work to do.
Tack to starboard and she's headed home, she's the Segue, she's the Segue.

Now the wind retreats and softens up her sail, as the breezes barely blow.
She seems to know just when to drift into the night, we both have nowherelse to go.

Now the wind picks up and brings me to my knees, there's still some sailing work to do.
Tack to starboard and she's heading home. She's the Segue, she's the Segue.
