TEARDROPS
(Terry McBride - George Ducas)

Teardrops on my window just like raindrops fallin' down from my eyes
Teardrops on my pillow they're everywhere I go since you said goodbye

Everyday I make my way across this lonely room
I pull back the shades and all I see are blue skies
Without you here it's stormy weather and even the sun can make me cry
Teardrops on my window...
[ steel - guitar ]
Every night I try to fight back your mem'ry try as I might everytime I lose
When I lay down well that's when heartaches come around I realize it's just no use
Teardrops on my window...
They're everywhere I go since you said goodbye

KISSES DON'T LIE
(Michael P. Heeney - George Ducas)

I turn to you you turn away saying we've lost that love thing
You say the flame I had for you is gone from my eyes
Say what you want say what you will words don't prove nothing
But baby kisses don't lie
Every time your lips touch mine it's crazy
Can't you feel my heartbeat come alive
Sometimes words won't do so if you want the truth
Baby kisses don't lie oh baby kisses don't lie
[ guitar ]
When we're side by side when we're face to face wach kiss will prove it
When I'm holding you and you're holding me yYou'll know that it's right
If my lips grew cold if my lips grew weak you'd see right through it
Cause baby kisses don't lie
Every time your lips touch mine...
No baby kisses don't lie

HELLO CRUEL WORLD
(Ty Tyler - George Ducas - Angelo Patriglia)
« © '94 Blackwood Music, BMI / Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

I lost another one and only but I'll move on and do my best
You'll find me where it's sad and lonely in case you need my new address
I'll be here at 13-13 Heartbreak Avenue
Hello cruel world I'm movin' in hello cruel world my new best friend
Where love is tough and times're hard hello cruel world goodbye sweetheart

I'll be real lucky if I make it your mem'ry still tears me apart
The only way I can escape it is down the trail of broken hearts
It's a lonesome stretch of highway a long long way from home
Hello cruel world...
[ guitar - fiddle ]
Hello cruel world...
Hello cruel world goodbye sweetheart

MY WORLD STOPPED TURNING
(Gary Nicholson - George Ducas)

My world stopped turning when you walked away
My heart's still breaking both night and day
The sun has stopped shining seasons don't change
And my world stopped turning when you walked away

I never knew how I needed you I couldn't see what you meant to me
But now that you're gone there's no way to carry on
My world stopped turning...
[ guitar - fiddle ]
The sun has stopped shining...
Yes my world stopped turning when you walked away

LIPSTICK PROMISES
(Tia Sillers - George Ducas)
« © '94 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI / Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

You told me I was all you'd ever need
You said my love would always be enough
Your scarlet kisses on my skin fooled me till the end
Every single word you said every drop dead shade of red
Were just lipstick promises
Was I easy to deceive you were so easy to believe
I fell for your every kiss and your lipstick promises

Since you've gone I see where I went wrong
All your lies somehow left me blind
What you said would last so long was only painted on
Every single word you said...
[ guitar ]
Was I easy to deceive you were so easy to believe
I fell for your every kiss and your lipstick promises
Every single word you said every drop dead shade of red
Were just lipstick promises just lipstick promises

SHAME ON ME
(George Ducas - Angelo Arvonio)
« © '94 Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

Cruel cruel you but shame one me
Cause only a fool like me twice believes
Cruel cruel you but shame on me

I trusted you you let me down I turn right back you can't be found
You're in his arms now I'm your clown again
Cruel cruel you...
[ guitar ]
Fooled me once you fooled me twice you rolled me honey like tumblin' dice
I found out you ain't so nice at all
Cruel cruel you...
(Shame on me cruel cruel you) cruel cruel you but shame on me

WAITING AND WISHING
(Tia Sillers - George Ducas)
« © '94 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI / Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

I throw a penny in the river each mornin'
At twilight I go outside and find the first star
I'm down on my knees most every evenin'
Praying I'll find a way back into your heart
I'm waiting and wishing for one chance to hold you the same way I used to
I'm waiting and wishing for one night of moonlight
To bring back the love we once knew
But waiting and wishing is just crazy thinking when I'm waiting and wishing for you
[ piano - steel ]
I'm just a shadow of what I was with you
And I've come to know a shadow ain't much
It's just an image of darkness the sunlight can't get to
That fades in the nighttime when it ain't bright enough
I'm waiting and wishing...
Waiting and wishing is just crazy thinkin' when I'm waiting and wishing for you

IN NO TIME AT ALL
(Kim Richey - George Ducas)
« © '94 Mighty Nice Music, BMI / Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

In no time at all I'll be over you come any day now I'll be good as new
In no time at all your memory will fade the final tear will fall in no time at all

I'm sure glad when midnight rolls around
Cause that's one less day you've got to get me down
And I know this won't last I'll leave behind the past
Like a clock up on the wall
In no time at all...
[ fiddle ]
One by one the minutes tick away next thing I know hours turn to days
But that don't bother me cause you're about to be
Just a name I can't recall
In no time at all...
The final tear will fall in no time at all in no time at all

ONLY IN MY DREAMS
(George Ducas - Angelo Arvonio)
« © '94 Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

When moonlight shines you're never far behind
I close my eyes to find you by my side
I drift away oh just like dreamers do
Each and every single night I'm holding you
But only in my dreams you're still in love with me
You're by my side where you never say goodbye
But that's only in my dreams

I turn back time to my world of make believe
Where you and I are just like we used to be
You take my hand and I fall for you again
I believe every word when you say that you're mine till the end
But only in my dreams...
[ guitar ]
Only in my dreams...
That's only in my dreams

IT AIN'T ME
(Tia Sillers - George Ducas)
« © '94 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI / Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP / Weg O Music, ASCAP »

When it ain't in the cards when it's over from the start
When gold turns to rust it ain't me you love
When it's time for curtain call when the writing's on the wall
When talk turns to touch it ain't me you love it ain't me you love
It ain't me you long to hold tight it ain't me come on look me in the eye
You play the part so well but it ain't tough to tell what's plain to see it ain't me

When the lay is on the line and it's life Number 9
When your mind's all made up it ain't me you love
When the dust finally clears you're just the smoke on mirrors
And that don't leave much it ain't me you love it ain't me you love
It ain't me you long to hold tight...
[ guitar ]
It ain't me you long to hold tight...
Oh it's plain to see it ain't me
