Cowboy Take Me Away
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of blue bonnets, in a blanket full of stars
Oh it sounds good to me
Chorus:
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and closer to you
Closer to you
I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall
I wanna be the only one, for miles and miles
Except for maybe you and your simple smile
Oh it sounds good to me, yes it sounds so good to me
Chorus:
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and closer to you
Closer to you
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
Oh it sounds good to me, yes it sounds so good to me
Chorus:
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and closer to you
Closer to you

Early Morning Rain

Early Mornin' Rain
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
And an achin' in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain with no place to go
Out on runway number nine big seven-o-seven set to go
But I’m stuck here on the ground
Where the cold winds blow
You can’t jump a jet plane like you cannot freight a train
So I’d best be on my way in the early morning rain
Solo
Hear a mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high
She's away and westward bound
Far above my home she'll fly
Where the mornin' rain don't fall
And the sun always shines
She'll be flyin' past my home in about three hours time
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
And an achin' in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain with no place to go
In the early morning rain with no place to go…

Everything I Own
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me, set me free, set me free
The finest years I ever knew
Were all the years I had with you
Chorus: And I would give everything I own
I’d give up my life, my heart, my home
And I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to laugh, what a time, what a time
You never said too much but still you showed the way
And I knew from watchin’ you
Nobody else could ever know
The part of me that can’t let go
Chorus: And I would give everything I own
I’d give up my life, my heart, my home
And I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Bridge:
Well is there someone you know
You’re lovin’ them so
But taking them all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And they don’t hear the words you long to say
Chorus: And I would give everything I own
I’d give up my life, my heart, my home
And I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again

Fall So Deep

Fall So Deep
Tonight I dream I saw you, as real as if I saw you
From the window of a moving train that you forgot to catch
And your face is wet with raindrops, I count them as they’re falling
I watch them splash against your feet, and then I disappear
Chorus:
And it’s not that I expect more than I should
It’s just that I believe if I could
I’d fall so deep I’d fall…
In love with you
I saw the ghost of beauty
And I know that it’s just beauty
As I get up from the table hoping you will see me there
The place I set is empty, and I can see you standing
Looking out towards the mountains
That I always saw as hills
Chorus:
And it’s not that I expect more than I should
It’s just that I believe if I could
I’d fall so deep I’d fall…
In love with you
I stood here for a moment, to find the perfect moment
In a world all topsy turvey
In a place turned upside down
If I turned into a bluebird
Would you stand out in the open
While I circle high above you land upon you fingertips
Chorus:
And it’s not that I expect more than I should
It’s just that I believe if I could
I’d fall so deep I’d fall…
In love with you

Gold In Them Hills
I know it doesn’t seem that way
But maybe it’s the perfect day
Even though the bills are piling
And maybe Lady Luck ain’t smiling
But if we’d only open our eyes
We’d see the blessings in disguise
That all the rain clouds are fountains
Though our troubles seem like mountains
Chorus: There’s gold in them hills
There’s gold in them hills
So don’t lose heart
Give the day a chance to start
Every now and then life says
Where do you think you’re going so fast
We’re apt to think it cruel but sometimes
It’s a case of cruel to be kind
And if we’d get up off our knees
Why then we’d see the forest for the trees
And we’d see the new sun rising
Over the hills on the horizon
Chorus: There’s gold in them hills
There’s gold in them hills
So don’t lose faith
Give the world a chance to say,..
Bridge: A word or two my friend
There’s no telling how the day might end
And we’ll never know until we see that
Chorus: There’s gold in them hills
There’s gold in them hills
So don’t lose heart
Give the day a chance to start
There’s gold in them hills
There’s gold in them hills

Good Night
It was plain to see your child deep within me
All the years I cried for you yes I know what you felt
Cause I felt it too yes, you and I were meant to be
Now listen to what I have to say
I understand you more than you might think
Those nights so troubled and confused yes
I have my share of those nights too
Let’s not be afraid to look inside
Cause God only knows what we might find
Chorus: Good night sleepy head
Rest assured tomorrow sings
Good night worried mind
I’ll put my hand on your heart
Together we’ll fly
Now listen to what I want to say ya
I need you more now then I did yesterday ya
Those nights so troubled and confused just
Take a deep breathe and I’ll comfort you yes
You love me and I’ll love you too
Let’s not be afraid to look inside
Cause God only knows what we might find
Chorus: Good night sleepy head
Rest assured tomorrow sings
Good night worried mind
I’ll put my hand on your heart
Together we’ll fly

How Time Flies
All I wanted when I called up your mother, darlin’
Was to hear the latest news
But much to my surprise she said, darlin’
I’ve no time to talk to you
Chorus: And oh how time flies
And oh how I wanted to cry
All I wanted when I walked up to you, darlin’
Was to ask you how ya been
But much to my surprise there she was, darlin
With a baby by her side
Chorus: And oh how time flies
And oh how I wanted to cry
All I wanted was to reach out to you, darlin’
To tell you how I feel
But much to my surprise I was too late, darlin’
Cause you’d gone and married too
Chorus: And oh how time flies
And oh how I wanted to cry
And oh how time flies
And oh how I wanted to die

Lonlier Than This

Lonelier Than This
It doesn't get any lonelier than this
I believe my heart'll break
Tonight I prayed I'd die before I wake
With every breath I'm tastin' your kiss
And it's sweet upon my tongue
Until the bitter tears fall one by one
Well it doesn't get any lonelier than this
'cause I'm on this road alone
My heartbeat ringin' like a hollow drum
I'm about as lonesome as a poor girl gets
And there's nothin' I can do
'cause it's dark out here and I can't find you
Well it doesn't get any lonelier than this
solo
It doesn't get any lonelier than this
I'm as blue as blue can be
I’m just an empty space where your love should be
I'm sick and tired of walkin' around like this
With my heart outside my skin
I’m scared to death we'll never touch again
Well it doesn't get any lonelier than this
And there's no place I can go
There’s just the dusty corners that the shadows know
Ah maybe this is good as it's gonna get
And I’ll always be this way
I'll just wander this world callin' out your name
But it doesn't get any lonelier than this…

Pardon My Heart
It's a fallen situation, when all our eyes are turnin’ in
And the love isn't flowing, the way it could have been
Chorus: You brought it all on…
Oh, but it feels so wrong
You brought it all on…
No, no, no, I don't believe this song
You brought it all on…
It's a sad communication, with little reason to believe
When one isn't giving, and one pretends to receive
Chorus:
Pardon my heart, if I showed that I cared
But I love you more than moments, we have or have not shared
Chorus: You brought it all on…
Oh and it feels so good
You brought it all on…
When love flows the way that it should
You brought it all on…
It feels so good, it feels good, it feels good
It feels good, it feels good, it feels good
Feels so good, feels so good…

Sweet Baby James

Sweet Baby James
There is a young cowboy he lives on the range
His horse and his cattle are his only companions
He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons
Waiting for Summer, his pastures to change
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes as the dogies retire
He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
As if maybe someone could hear
Chorus:
Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rockabye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues are the colours I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rockabye sweet baby James
Now the first of December was covered with snow
And so was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
Though the Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A song that they sing of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to see
That singing works just fine for me
Chorus:
Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rockabye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues are the colours I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rockabye sweet baby James
So, Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rockabye sweet baby James

Walk In Circles

Walk In Circles
Sittin’ by myself in this hotel room
Well I find myself searchin’ for something to do
Then I walk in circles seeing my life in front of me
Another book read, another philosophy said
Well it all sounds so simply still I don’t understand
Why I walk in circles searchin’ for something I can’t see
Chorus:
Carry me home to that place I remember
The snowy white December
Where my Momma used to say
Oh I love you, I love you, I love you
Just the same
Another night another crowd, another name to a face
That I hope to remember
When I come back to this place
Oh I walk in circles searchin’ for what I’m suppose to do
Well it’s not so bad you see I’m
I’m grateful for all I have
And yes I’ll sing my song
To the soul with a bleeding hand
While I walk in circles livin’ my life in spite of me
Chorus:
Carry me home to that place I remember
My sisters and my brother
And the games we used to play
Oh I love you, I love you, I need you
Just the same
solo
Chorus:
Carry me home to that place I remember
The sweet smell of September
Where my Daddy used to say
Oh I love you, I love you, I love you
Just the same
Now it’s time to let it go, Lord I put my trust in you
Cause I know my life is meant
For so much more then I consume
So I’ll walk in circles searchin’ for answers inside of me
Yes I walk in circles singin’ my songs in spite of me
Oh I walk in circles sharin’ my life of melody

Empty Boxes

Empty Boxes
Empty boxes and a room full of dust
All that’s left since the two of us
Funny even though you’re gone you surround me
You’re everywhere I look
In every waking thought…
Empty boxes and the two of us
Friends all tell me everything’s gonna be okay
They say to let you go, hold on to the memories
Well with my head held high I walk with good intentions but…
You’re everywhere I look
In every breath I take…
Empty boxes and the two of us
Bridge: I hope you know I’ll always love you
And if I could, well I’d wrap my arms around you
I hope you understand why I had to let you go
Baby please remember me for the love not the sorrow
Empty boxes and a room full of dust
All that’s left since the two of us
Funny even though you’re gone you surround me
You’re everywhere I look
In every dream I dream
In every story book
Every song I sing
Every morning I wake up
In my empty bed
You’re in my coffee cup
Every tear I’ve shed
Empty boxes and the two of us…
