(Michael McDonald)

Who would sell their soul for love?
Or waste one tear on compromise
Should be easy enough
To know a heartache in disguise
But the heart rules the mind
And the going gets rough
Pride takes the fall
When you find that kind of love

I can’t help feeling like a fool
Since I lost that place inside
Where my heart knew its way
And my soul was ever wise
Once innocence was lost
There was not faith enough
Still my heart held on
When it found that kind of love

Though beauty is rare enough
Still we trust
Somehow we’ll find it there
With no guarantee
It seems to me
At least it should be fair

But if it’s only tears and pain
Isn’t it still worth the cost
Like some sweet saving grace
Or a river we must cross
If we don’t understand
What this life is made of
We learn the truth
When we find that kind of love
Cause when innocence is lost
There is not faith enough
We learn the truth
When we find that kind of love
When we find that kind of love

(Ron Block)

Go on and lie I’ve heard it all before
You had no shame
This pain I feel you’ve never known
The rain outside is shifting in the wind
The road is looking lonelier
Alone again

Love is real
Then love goes on and on
The words you say condemn you<a href=”http://www.testimania.com/”>Testi Canzoni</a>
As the guilty one
I guess you’re not the kind you claim to be
Always looking out to get your love for free

Could you lie and say you love me just a little
One more wrong will keep us one more night
When quiet fades at the light of day
I see the truth
It’s on your face again

When morning breaks my heart won’t understand
Spend a lifetime raising houses on the sand
The rain outside is shifting in the wind
The road is looking lonelier
Alone again

Could you lie and say you love me just a little
One more wrong will keep us one more night
When quiet fades at the light of day
I see the truth
It’s on your face again
It’s on your face again

(Allen Reynolds)

I hope that I won’t be that wrong anymore
I hope that I’ve learned this time
I hope that I find what I’m reaching for
The way that it is in my mind

Someday I’ll get over you
I’ll live to see it all through
But I’ll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you

I won’t let it change me
Not if I can
I’d rather believe in love
And give it away
As much as I can
To those that I’m fondest of

Someday I’ll get over you
I’ll live to see it all through
But I’ll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you

Someday I’ll get over you
I’ll live to see it all through
But I’ll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you
Dreaming my dreams with you

It’s been a long time coming,
As we shed a lonesome tear.
And now you’re in a wonderama,
I wonder what you’re doin’ here.

The flame no longer flickers,
You’re feeling just like a fool.
You’re starin’ into your liquor,
Wonderin’ what to do.

I don’t really know you,
But I’d be willin’ to show you,
A way to make you smile!
Let me touch you for awhile.

I’m gonna ruin my black mascara.
You’re drinkin whiskey when it should be wine.
You keep a-lookin’ into that mirror.
But to me you’re lookin’ really fine.

I don’t really know you,
But I’d be willin’ to show you,
I know a way to make you,
Laugh at that cowgirl as she’s walkin’ out your door.
I know a way to make you smile.

Just let me whisper things,
You’ve never heard before.
Just let me touch you, baby.
Just let me touch you for awhile.

I don’t really know you,
But I’d be willin’ to show you,
I know a way to make you smile.

It’s been a long time,
Let me touch you for awhile.
Let me touch you for awhile.

Tell You a little story and it won’t take long,
‘Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn’t hoe his corn.
The reason why I never could tell,
That young man was always well.

He planted his corn in the month of June.
By July it was up to his eyes.
Come September, came a big frost.
And all the young man’s corn was lost.

His story, kith, had just begun.
Said: “Young man, have you hoed some corn?”
“Well I tried and I tried, and I tried in vain.
“But I don’t believe I raised no grain.”

He went down town to his neighbour’s door.
Where he had often been before.
Sayin’: “Pretty little miss, will you marry me?”
“Little miss what do you say?”

“Why do you come for me to wed?
“You, can’t even make your own corn grain.
“Single I am, and will remain.
“A lazy man, I won’t maintain.”

He turned his back and walked away.
Sayin: “Little miss, you’ll rue the day.
“You’ll rue the day that you were born.
“For givin’ me the devil ‘cos I wouldn’t hoe corn.”
“For givin’ me the devil ‘cos I wouldn’t hoe corn.”

You’re the lucky one
So i’ve been told
As free as the wind,
Blowin’ down the road
Loved by many, hated by none
I’d say you’re lucky ’cause I know what you’ve done
Not a care in the world
Not a worry in sight
Everything’s gunna be alright
Cause you’re the lucky one

You’re the lucky one
Always havin’ fun
A jack of all trades a master none<a href=”http://www.testimania.com/”>Testi Canzoni</a>
You look at the world with a smilin’ eye
And laugh at the devil as his train goes by

Give you a song and a one night stand
And you’ll be looking at a happy man
’cause you’re the lucky one.

Well you’re blessed i guess
By never knowing which road your choosin.
To you the next best thing
To playin and winning is playin and losing

You’re the lucky one i know that now
Don’t ask you why, when, where, or how
You look at the world thru your smilin’ eye
And laugh at the devil as his train goes by

Give you a song and a one night stand
And you’ll be looking at a happy man
’cause you’re the lucky one

Well you’re blessed i guess
By never knowing which road your choosin.
To you the next best thing
To playin and winning is playin and losing

You’re the lucky one i know that now
Don’t ask you why, when, where, or how
No matter where you’re at, it’s where you’ll be
You can bet your luck won’t follow me
Just give you a song and a one night stand
And you’ll be looking at a happy man
Cause you’re the lucky one.
Cause you’re the lucky one.

I lit my love and watched it burn
Asking nothing in return
Except the lessons I will learn
From holding crazy faith.

I’ve been touched by that bright fire
Down to the root of my desire
While the smoke, it rises higher
Glowing crazy faith.

You’re not asking if I love this man
I know you don’t, you don’t believe you can
Yet I’ve seen the love open like a dancers fan
It’s crazy, I know, but my faith says so.
It tells me.

— Instrumental —

Am I a fool for hanging long?
Would I be a fool for being long gone
When is daylight gonna dawn
On my crazy faith.

The questions will not let me sleep
The dance is buried way too deep
But the bottom lover, lover’s keep
Made by crazy faith.

You’re not asking if I love this man
I know you don’t, you don’t believe you can
Yet I’ve seen the love open like a dancers fan
It’s crazy, I know, but my faith says so
It tells me.

— Instrumental Break —

Love you’re losin’, those you love
Let the hope fly from the glove
Do not search the skies above
Search your crazy faith.

Love is lightning, love is ice
It only strikes the lucky twice
Once or you will know the price
And once for crazy faith.

You’re not asking if I love this man
I know you don’t, you don’t believe you can
Yet I’ve seen the love open like a dancers fan
It’s crazy, I know, but my faith says so…
It’s crazy, I know, but my faith says so…

I lit my love and watched it burn
Asking nothing in return
Except the lessons I will learn
By holding crazy faith

I’ve been touched by that bright fire
Down to the root of my desire
While the smoke it rises higher
On crazy faith

You’re not asking if I love this man
I know you don’t, you don’t believe you can
Yet I’ve seen love open like a dancer’s fan
It’s crazy I know
But my faith says so, it tells me

Am I a fool for hanging on?
Would I be a fool to be long gone?
When is daylight going to dawn
On my crazy faith?

The questions will not let me sleep
Answers buried way too deep
At the bottom of a lover’s leap
Made by crazy faith

You’re not asking if I love this man
I know you don’t, you don’t believe you can
Yet I’ve seen love open like a dancer’s fan
It’s crazy I know, but my faith says so
It tells me

Love your losing, lose your love
Let the hawk fly from the glove
Then do not search the skies above
Search your crazy faith

Love is lightning, love is ice
It only strikes the lucky twice
Once, so you will know the price
And once for crazy faith

You’re not asking if I love this man
I know you don’t, you don’t believe you can
Yet I’ve seen love open like a dancer’s fan
It’s crazy I know,
But my faith says so
But my faith says so

Momma loved us, every one.
Every daughter, very son.
She gave herself so happily,
That’s just the way she was, you see.

From dawn to dark she’d find a chore.
And work it ’til it was no more.
And every day until she died,
In the evening, Momma cried.

Momma cried;
There was mourning in the evening.
And Momma cried;
‘Cos her little girl was gone.

Her little girl was snatched away.
She was there and then just gone one day.
And Momma blamed herself, I’d say,
But all of us had debts to pay.

Momma cried;
There was mourning in the evening.
And Momma cried;
‘Cos her little girl was gone.

I did my best to cheer her pride.
That day that something broke inside.
I swore I’d find her and I tried.
In the evening, Momma cried.

Momma cried;
There was mourning in the evening.
And Momma cried;
‘Cos her little girl was gone.

Momma cried;
There was mourning in the evening.
And Momma cried;
‘Cos her little girl was gone.
‘Cos her little girl was gone.

When you came to me
You said love could not erase
The ever present memory of another face

I tried to make you love me
How I could I be so blind
To think I’d be the one to change your mind

And if I’m gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if its right wrong
I’ve waited for you too long
And if I can’t hold on
I’m Gone

When you came to me
I said love will find a way
For every heart that leaves another heart must stay

I guess you couldn’t see
As the shadow’s in the night
It seems the time for us just wasn’t right

And if I’m gone before you start
Well you can find me in your heart
Who can say if its right wrong
I’ve waited for you too long
And if I can’t hold on
I’m Gone
I’m Gone
