I remember watching you staring out the window just waiting
Anticipating,
Something down the line.
I never really noticed just how far away you’d been standing
All the time you’d been planning
To make your goodbye…
Sometimes sadness calls from out in the distance
And I need a witness
To come and ease my mind
So, when you gonna come back?
When you gonna be my baby?
‘Cause I’m half-crazy, feeling left behind
Someday the truth’ll be found out there in our future
But I wish it‘d come sooner
This day is so unkind
So, when you gonna come back?
When you gonna be my baby?
Please don’t say maybe
I’m just wasting my time (oh no!)
‘Cause i’ve been thinking ‘bout you, honey
All of the time.

Liars and cheats and snakes will abuse you
And turn around and act like nothing’s wrong
Spit in your face, tear up your place
And laugh at you and say you don’t belong
Well, this is my way of saying
I’m not playing that game anymore
So, pack up your troubles
Turn off the lights and start walking
Toward the door
And when tomorrow comes
The morning sun will make everything seem shiny and new
‘Cause liars and cheats and snakes I may know nothing
But I’m sure that I’m done with you
And, this is my way of saying
I’m not playing your game anymore
So, pack up your troubles
Turn off the lights and start walking
Toward the door
And when tomorrow comes
The morning sun will make everything seem shiny and new
‘Cause liars and cheats and snakes I may know nothing
But I’m sure that I’m done with you

As Long As I Have You

When the night comes creeping in
And those lonely hours begin once again
I know there’s something real that I can hold onto
As long as I have you
I may falter, I may fail
And every dream I have may one day just set sail
But when it’s been said and done, I’ll be fine--win or lose
As long as I have you
No matter what crazy things this life throws my way
I know I’ll be standing here at the end of the day
I can even take these nights when they leave me sad and blue
Just as long as I have you
Whatever circumstance may come or may go
I’ll be holding on to the one thing that I know
Even if, all these stars fall right down like the dew
Just as long as I have you
As long as I have you

You’ve been playing ‘round like rolling thunder
Been feeling high and mighty ‘bout yourself
Like everything is fine
And the last thing on your mind
Is thinking ‘bout anybody else
I don’t know if this will be the first word
I don’t know if this will be my last
But, I’m gonna have my say
Now, before you walk away
And the moment for talking has passed
Don’t go runnin’ ‘round, a-teasing
Don’t you put my love upon no shelf
Don’t you think that watching this is easy
When I can’t see myself with no one else
But if you seek a pleasant conversation
Go ahead and say what you might say (stray)
Just know in your heart
When this whole thing falls apart
Only the lonely think that way

I remember golden days--green grass all around
Strolling in the morning air, (not a care ) no cares to be found
Never had one single reason for ever feeling down
In those days before heartache came to town
She waltzed right in, unpacked her bags, threw her laundry on the floor
Said the things I used to do I won't be doing anymore
Things were likely gonna change and change they surely did
I was so lost that I felt just like a kid
'Cause my world went spinning wildly
As the pain washed over me
'Til it seemed like lonely darkness was all I could see
And ever since that awful day, the rain's been falling down
But, I was fine, before heartache came to town
Now I'm trying to get myself back there
But I just can't find a way
Who, or what, or where it was, well, I can hardly say
Things just seem to go like that when you can't tell up from down
But, I was fine before heartache came to town
