Not With Me (free) 03:04
lyrics
download
Imagine my reaction When you show up unannounced Won’t give the satisfaction You want me to give you now Now we’ve done this once before When you left me at my front door Where were you when the nights got lonely? You disappeared in the dark Don’t you dare say you care about me You were somewhere else but not with me You were somewhere else but not with me I didn’t keep your letters They don’t mean nothing to me Don’t tell me you’ll do better When I was finally free You already said goodbye You can’t just walk into my life Where were you when the nights got lonely? You disappeared in the dark Don’t you dare say you care about me You were somewhere else but not with me You were somewhere else but not with me Spending all my money on rhythm and blues Trying to forget all the years we've been through You know it's not fair for you to be here I get that old time feeling when you come near Where were you when the nights got lonely? You disappeared in the dark Don’t you dare say you care about me You were somewhere else but not with me You were somewhere else but not with me

All New Kinds Of Strange 03:46
lyrics
There you were, as you are, suddenly in my life Always close, never far, constantly in my mind But you and I we go back, we go deeper in time I my mind I can’t tell, I can’t tell what to feel Take my head take my heart, it's my soul you can steal Is this a feeling I know, or is this something real? I was feeling all new kinds of strange You came into my life like a hurricane But those memories will haunt me Cause you're never gonna want me the same I still see your eyes shining like a saint I still feel your soul burning like a flame And I can’t forget that feeling Had me feeling all new kinds of strange Even now that you're gone you're in my head somewhere Always dancing around in my thoughts unaware And to the darkness around I ask are you still there

A Lifetime Ago 03:06
lyrics
I’ve been hearing that You wanna take it back But oh tell me tell me Think you can handle that? Cause I’ve been there before When you just aren’t quite sure What does it matter That was a lifetime ago And who am I to say That things should be this way I may be wrong but I’ll say it anyway Cause both of us have to know Whats going on below I know the secrets You told a lifetime ago A lifetime ago We used to steal the show But that was a lifetime ago So tell me know Darlin Are you telling me you, moved on That the rumors are true But i still used to know you Now it's been too long Your memory's all gone Oh don’t you sing me One of your sad sad songs You know I never lie I can’t see you morning or night Don’t make me say this Maybe it's time to go A lifetime ago We used to steal the show But that was a lifetime ago I’ve been hearing that You wanna take it all back But tell me tell me Think you can handle that Cause I’ve been there before And it hurts more and more To think of good times We had a lifetime ago A lifetime ago I’ve been hearing that You wana take it back Oh it's too late for us now Oh honey honey That was a lifetime ago

Slow Down Darling 04:40
lyrics
Blessed to be wiser than your years It's a shame you had to get there with tears And no one's to blame but it hurts just the same But the pain was never quite that clear You never were quite sure you had the guts A fear of getting left out in the dust But boy were you wrong it was there all along If your heart tells you to go then you must Slow Down Darling Take it one step at a time Give yourself a break and let your heart ache And know that you're doing just fine It's hard to let yourself shine When you know in the back of your mind No matter the cost, love still can be lost But that doesn’t mean you don’t try For that feeling you couldn’t deny And it made you feel electrified And sad is the fact it may never come back But at least you looked love in the eyes Slow Down Darling Take it one step at a time Give yourself a break and let your heart ache And know that you're doing just fine So Next Time your heads full of sorrow Here's a little thought you can borrow Just hold your head high, and know you’re alright And remember you’ll be here tomorrow Slow Down Darling Take it one step at a time Give yourself a break and let your heart ache And know that you're doing just fine

Same Old Soul 03:02
lyrics
It ain’t easy To feel complete Growing up On a dead end street I used to be hungry I still had some fight Now I’m a ghost Moaning at night Now that time has taken it’s toll And the night is getting so cold I sure I am feeling that same old soul It’s like you’re always around me An old flame in the dark When I tried to snuff you out You kept a piece of my heart Now that time has taken it's toll And the night is gettting so cold I hope you’re feeling that same old soul In the dark it's hard just to see What you can’t get outta me I just want you to be free, but tell me Did you move on did you forget about me and The good times I think of every so often But those old memories Are like the nails in my coffin Now time has taken it's toll And then night has gotten so cold I hope you’re feeling that same old soul

Rhythm Of The Rain 04:18
lyrics
Can you hear the Rhythm of the Rain Can you hear the rolling thunders sad refrain Do you close your tired eyes And forget all your pain When you listen to the rhythm of the rain Do you think of your daddy’s lullabies As the raindrops fall on a summer night When he sang you to sleep And he kissed you on your eyes Do you think of your daddy’s lullabies Oh It's been so long now Where did the time go to? Rings around the moon Means rain is coming soon Then it will move on through If only you could too Do you remember when you were feeling blue You lost your love and didn’t know what to do But he told you you could move on From what that boy did to you Someday soon the sky is turning blue Remember when the sky was turning blue Do you wonder if he still feels the same Did he forget about your heartache and your pain And you think of how your life would be If things had stayed the same Well your answers In the rhythm of the rain

Violent Love 03:46
lyrics
Everyday I see myself in the mirror But I can’t admit the thing I fear I have fallen in a violent love with you I tell myself that this is the last time Anything so I don’t lose my mind Everyday is just a violent love with you Now you’re running at my heart full speed All that I can do is let it bleed Paralyzed by the thought of what to lose Although it doesn’t matter what I do You hurt me and then I go hurt you Trapped inside this violent love for two I know now that you’re not what you seem Sometimes it feels like i met you in a dream But now I can’t wake up I can’t breakthrough So what you say we give this one more chance So that we can save this bad romance And I can show you that this violent love is true I try to stop it but my heart is weak Pretty soon we won’t survive the heat I know the fire that burns in me burns in you too Stay away I’ve told you times before But I can’t help myself from wanting more I can’t stop this violent love with you

Don't Make Me Say Goodbye 03:07
lyrics
Where you been these days You know I miss you But you seem far away Every time I kiss you I’m doing my best just to keep things how they were You say you love me now but are you really sure Oh did I fall hard I can't resist you You kill me every time Smiling with your baby blue eyes But something's’ changed and no it isn’t for the best And now I’m scared we're putting our love to the test Don’t make me do this Don’t make me cry All I want is for you to turn around and Don’t make me say goodbye Please tell me now if you gotta go I know deep down you got a pilgrim soul It hurts to know love at such a young age And be left empty with no one to blame Don’t make me do this Don’t make me cry All I want is for you to turn around and Don’t make me say goodbye Who can say Just how life takes us away I’m just doing what I think I have to do But I’ll tell ya something doesn’t feel right Time’s a tricky thing That you can’t undo I never thought that I would miss you more than love you I hope you understand how hard this is for me And only time can tell if it was meant to be Don’t make me do this Don’t make me cry All I want is for you to turn around and Don’t make me say goodbye

Better Days 03:55
lyrics
These days I’ve been feeling lost I’ve lived my life but at what cost All this time I thought I was free But I can’t forget what we used to be Saw your house I was passing by Thought of you figured I’d say hi The memories we have in this place But back then those were better days Days out in the sun and in the grass We were in love, we were moving so fast Too young to know the time wouldn't last forever Living life in a warm summer haze Your blonde hair can still drive me crazy Simpler time that I will always remember Those were better days Since then I’ve been living rough I’ve been getting drunk but it ain't enough To forget and say I’m okay To tell you the truth I’ve seen better days Days out in the sun and in the grass We were in love, we were moving so fast Too young to know the time wouldn't last forever Living life in a warm summer haze Your blonde hair can still drive me crazy Simpler time that I will always remember Those were better days I always wished I gave you that ring But now you don’t owe me a goddamn thing Good luck to you, I’ll be on my way I hope we both have better days Days out in the sun and in the grass We were in love, we were moving so fast Too young to know the time wouldn't last forever Living life in a warm summer haze Your blonde hair can still drive me crazy Simpler time that I will always remember Those were better days

Burn It Down (Like A Prairie Fire) 06:30
lyrics
At both ends, burning like a candle but its getting hard, getting hard to handle When life comes down to the wire Can I burn it down, like a prairie fire? I ain't got anything no more That's the only thing I know for sure Ain't got nowhere for me to be Once I had a light, now it's too dark to see There's only one thing left to do Cause I ain't spending no more time on feeling blue Full of fear and desire So I'm starting over Cause I'm getting tired When life comes down to the wire Can I burn it down, like a prairie fire? I just can't live like this no more That's the only thing I know for sure I think it's time to fix my soul Bring in the new, before I get too old It took so long for me to see This way of life I live is slowly killing me Full of fear and desire So I'm starting over Cause I'm getting tired When life comes down to the wire Can I burn it down, like a prairie fire? There's only one thing left to do Cause I ain't spending no more time on feeling blue Full of fear and desire So I'm starting over Cause I'm getting tired When life comes down to the wire Can I burn it down, like a prairie fire?
