TRUST ME

(Bill Anderson)
« © '79 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Mhm I don't think I've ever felt anything as good
As your fingers on my back or seen anything as pretty
As that long beautiful hair dripping down around your shoulders
And yet all this time you're lovin' me you're lyin' here
Wonderin' how I'm gonna feel about you when it's over
Oh I know some men will tell you anything in the dark
And then when the sun comes up they can't even tell you your name
But I'm not like that trust me

You have no way of knowin' how I'll feel tomorrow mornin' but I do
You're special and you're tender
Believe me it won't end here I love you
So relax I'm not goin' anywhere except crazy
With the desire for you and I'll still want you
And I'll still love you tomorrow mornin' trust me

Mhm I saw a good lookin' lady today walkin' down the street
Wearin' a beautiful dress
And all that I could think about was you sure would look better
In that dress than she does
Baby in my eyes there's nothing in this world
That looks as good as you
Now does that sound like the voice of a man
Who's gonna get up from here and walk out of your life no way
I'm not gonna leave you tomorrow mornin'
Or no one of a thousand tomorrow mornings to come trust me

ONE MORE SEXY LADY

(Bill Anderson)
« © '79 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You're one more sexy lady a true piece of heaven's art
You're one more sexy lady and I love you with all my heart
Sexy lady with all my heart

I like the sexy way you build a fire in the fireplace
Then lay me down and rub my back and build another fire in my soul
And I like the sexy way you pour the wine and light the candles
And kiss me and make me warm when I'm cold

I like the sexy way you take your gentle fingers and softly touch my body
And prick its sin like all the world stands still
And I like the sexy way I fall asleep in your arms
And when I wake up I'm not dreaming it's all real

THIS IS A LOVE SONG

(Jim Weatherly)
« © '78 PolyGram Int, ASCAP »
Sometimes I catch myself staring at you while you're lying fast asleep
I memorize the moment and lock it away
In my heart somewhere where it'll keep
Sometimes I still tremble when you brush against my skin
Where your hand reaches out to touch my face
I've never known anyone like you before
And I know I'll never see the likes of you again
No one in this world could ever take your place

And in case you don't know it this is a love song
And it comes from the heart of someone who loves you so
I don't always show it so this is a love song
You are loved I just wanted you to know

And in the quiet times when you talk to me
I hang on to every word that you say
You might not always see my love but it's always there
You still take my breath away

REMEMBERING THE GOOD

(Bill Anderson - Buddy Killen)
« © '79 Tree Publishing, BMI »
It's funny but I don't remember one thing you and I ever fought about
I know you used to look at me with the coldest eyes
And speak to me with the sharpest tongue
But even that's hazy now you know what I do remember
The warnth of your lips when we'd kiss
And make up the softness of your body
When you'd snuggle up close to me and say baby I'm sorry

And I'm lyin' here tonight remembering the good
Needing to hold you wishing I could
Listening to your laughter echo through my mind
Forgetting the bad times remembering the good

I thought I'd never forget how the door sounded
When you used to slam it and walk out but I have forgotten
And yet I can almost hum the tune it played
When you opened it and come back in
Funny all I can remember is the up and in's I forgot the down and out's

LADIES GET LONESOME TOO

(Peggy Forman)
« © '78 Hello Darlin Music, BMI »
In your eyes I can see you really don't believe it's you I'm holdin' in my arms
Cause I've known you all your life
You've never been the kind of woman to do wrong
And I know you havenm't changed and I know you still wear his name
And you're still the lady that I always knew
But you look so sad and lonely
Just close your eyes and hold me ladies get lonesome too

I know you're a good woman and you try to be a good wife
But I also know that you've had to spend too much time alone
And all the life has held you is faded dreams and songs sung blue
And a love that can't go right for goin' wrong
You've still got your pride but baby pride can't hold you
Or keep you warm the way that I can do
You've always been a lady but tinight be just my baby
Cause ladies get lonesome too
You've always been a lady but tonight just lay back and be my baby
Cause ladies get lonesome too

I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER

(Bill Anderson - Buddy Killen)
« © '78 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I can't take any longer baby I mean I can't wait any longer
Mhm I gotta have you I gotta know how it is to touch you
To hold you to feel you our lives have touched our minds have touched
And I can't wait any longer for our boddies to touch our souls to touch
I can't wait any longer this feelin's gettin' stronger
Satisfy my hunger you're the only one who can
Where do I have to go what do I have to do
Who do I have to lie to so I can lie with you I can't wait any longer
[ strings ] Patience has never been one of my virtues baby when I want something I want it now
And I want you now I wanna kiss you now I wanna love you now
I can't wait any longer...
(I can't wait I can't wait doo doo doo) baby I can't wait any longer
I want you now hmm now yeah (I can't wait I can't wait...)

KISS YOU ALL OVER

(Mike Chapman - Nicky Chinn)
« © '79 BMG Songs, ASCAP »
When we get home babe gonna light your fire
All day I been thinkin' about you baby you're my desire
Gonna wrap my arms around you and hold you close to me
Oh babe I wanna taste your lips I wanna feel your fantasy

I don't know what I'd do babe without you I don't know where I'd be
You're not just another lover no you're everything to me
Every time I'm with you baby I can't believe it's true
When you're lyin' in my arms and you do the things you do

You can see it in my eyes I can feel it in your touch
You don't have to say a thing just let me show how much
I love you I need you yeah I wanna kiss you all over and over again
I wanna kiss you all over till the night closes in till the night closes in

No one else could ever make me feel the way you do
Oh keep on lovin' me baby and I'll keep lovin' you
It's easy to see when somethin's right or somethin's wrong
Oh stay with me baby and hold me all night long

Show me show me everything you do
Cause baby no one does it quite like you
I love you I need you yeah I wanna kiss you all over and over again
I wanna kiss you all over till the night closes in till the night closes in

Stay with me lay with me holdin' me lovin' me baby
Here with me near with me feelin' you close to me baby

MARRIED LADY

(Bill Anderson)
« © '79 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I've got a confession to make when I first decided to bring you here tonight
I was scared to death I started once to call it off
Run back to my little corner of the world
But then I remembered how soft your lips can be
How tantalizing your body can be
And how great it is to make love to a married lady

Tonight I fell in love with a married lady
She held me in her lovin' arms and she called me baby
And she made me feel all the good things I've missed lately
Tonight I fell in love with a married lady

My life's been pretty crazy lately
But tonight lyin' next to you it all came back into focus
I discovered there's a difference between what matters
And what counts and what counts is being close to you and loving you
And remembering why I married you in the first place

STAY WITH ME

(James P. Pennington)
« © '78 Careers Music, BMI »
Well I don't know what makes you wanna go
Baby you won't let your feelings show
Now you're leaving me all alone
And I'll be just another broken heart when you're gone

Stay with me just a little bit longer lay with me till I'm a little stronger
I can't feel the night alone without love
Baby have a little mercy on me tell me girl you won't leave me lonely
Stay and let's talk awhile about love

All I want is one last night with you
Come the morning do what you wanna do
So it won't be all in vain
Stay this one last night with me and help me ease the pain

THREE TIMES A LADY

(Lionel Richie)
« © '78 Jobete Music, ASCAP »
Thank you for the times that you've given me
The memories are all locked away in my mind
And now that we've come to the end of our rainbow
There's something I feel I must say out loud

You're once twice three times a lady
Yes you're once twice three times a lady and I love you

You've shared my dreams my joys my pains
You've made my whole life worth livin' for
And if I had it all to live over again
I'd still wanna spend each and every moment with you

DOUBLE S

(Bill Anderson - Buddy Killen)
« © '78 Tree Publishing, BMI »
She was sitting on a stool in a little bar called the Seldom Scene
When I walked over and said hi introduced myself
And what's your name I asked she just smiled
She was wearin' a tiny gold chain with the initials SS on the front
And I said wait a minute you are Susie Smith she shook her head
Okay you're Sally Simpson...Sarah and before I could finish
She put her hand on mine and said look it's not important
And I said okay I'll just call you Double S and she nodded
And I said what are you drinkin' Double S she said Scotch'n'Soda
And I said Okay Double S one Scotch'n'Soda comin' up
You live around here I asked
No she said just killin' time till the morning
I got an early plane back to California I live near San Simeon
Oh and you'll be flyin' on a 7-0-7 no doubt I said
How did you know? she asked oh I guess I'm just super-smart
You gonna spend the rest of the night in this bar Double S
No she said I have a motel room I'm at the Surfing Sand
Can I give you a lift thanks
I rented a car but I don't drive it too well she answered
It's a stick-ship haha Double S you are something-special I said
And paid the town and we walked out in the cool evening breeze
She said across the seat and snuggled up close to my side
And I began to run my fingers through her hair
It was soft'n'silky. I opened the door to her room
My lips found her lips and I held her close
And whispered you are a super-sexy lady she simply smiled
I could feel her body slowly soften as her sensuous soul
Swiftly swept me into sublime serenity
Her plane left just as the morning
Sun began to softly streak the starry sky
She kissed me a soft solyuna waved a sultry so long from the window
And I never saw Double S again
Right now she's soaring somewhere above the clouds
And I'm walking home on one
And I just realized I never did find out what Double S stood for
All I know is our time together was short and sweet
