CRYING TIME
(Buck Owens)
« © '64 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Well it's crying time again you're gonna leave me
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling
And it won't be long before it's crying time
They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
And that tears are only rain to make love grow
But my love for you could never grow no stronger
If I live to be a hundred years old
Well it's crying time again...
You tell me you found someone you love better
That's the way it's happened every time before
But just as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow
Crying time will start when you walk out the door
Well it's crying time again...

TOO MANY RIVERS
(Harlan Howard)

(There's too many rivers to cross)
I wish I could come back to you dear
Cause I know that you want me to
But too much water has run under that old bridge
And there's too many rivers between me and you
There's too many rivers to cross dear too many dreams that have been lost
There's too many long nights that I've turned and have tossed
There's too many rivers to cross
Now don't think for a moment that I blame only you
We both killed the fruit on the vine
And when you try to put love back together again
There's always a few little pieces you can't find
And there's too many rivers to cross dear...

TOGETHERNESS
(Leon Ashley - Margie Singleton)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
We forgot togetherness the one thing that could keep on love alive
A little thing called togetherness just didn't fit into our way of life
We forgot togetherness without it there's no way to make love grow
We forgot togetherness and it's too late to save our love now our love's gone
You went your way and I went mine growing farther apart as time went by
We forgot togetherness it didn't seem to be important at the time
A little thing called togetherness just didn't fit into our way of life

HERE COMES MY BABY BACK AGAIN
(Dottie West - Bill West)
« © '64 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Here comes more tears to cry here comes more heartaches by
Here comes my baby back again
Here comes more misery here comes old memories
Here comes my baby back again
My arms are open wide to let more hurt inside
Here comes my baby back again
He's sorry once again once more I'll understand
Here comes my baby back again
[ piano ]
My arms are open wide...
Here comes my baby back again

YOU TOOK THE EASY WAY OUT
(Dottie West - Bill West - Stonewall Jackson)
« © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You said our love was not the same and that I was all to blame
You took the easy way out
And though I loved you heart and soul that's not the story that you told
You took the easy way out
You came home while I was gone packed your things and moved along
You took the easy way out
Left me alone to explain to our friends and bear the shame
While you took the easy way out
[ piano ]
You came home while I was gone...

(I'D BE A) LEGEND IN MY TIME
(Don Gibson)
« © '60 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
If heartaches brought fame in love's crazy game
I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statues for tears and regrets
I'd be a legend in my time
But they don't give awards and there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
They don't give awards...

DUSK TILL DAWN
(Margie Singleton)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
Another day has come and gone shadows of night are rushing on
Soon we'll find our way into each other's arms
Excuses we both made just to meet in our secret place
And share the live that lives from dusk till dawn
From dusk till dawn we share a love we both know can't be right
How can love like ours last that just can't face the morning light
Tomorrow's just another day we'll have to hide our love away
For our love only lives from dusk till dawn
From dusk till dawn we share a love we both know can't be right
How can love like ours last that just can't face the morning light
Each night we vow again we're through but dusk just lights the flame in you
And we find our way into each other's arms

SOMEONE'S GOTTA CRY
(Don Bowman)
« © '64 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Someone's gotta cry when love is over
And as you leave it's very plain to see
You're not about to cry for you're in love again
But someone's gotta cry and that leaves me
There's very little left to say the goodbyes have been said
But anytime a true love dies a few tears must be shed
Someone's gotta cry that makes it final
And in her arms is where you wanna be
You smile at her she smiles at you you're happy
But someone's gotta cry and that leaves me
Someone's gotta cry and that leaves me

MY PERMISSION TO LIE
(Leon Ashley - Margie Singleton)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
Tell me you love me though we know it's not true
Make me belive wrong is right
Tell you still fell like you used to do
You have my permission to lie
In the beginning we both made a vow
That our love would never be furnished with lies
But those were the good days and there was nothing to hide
Now I give you my permission to lie
Yes I give you my permission to lie

I'M GUILTY THIS TIME
(Leon Ashley - Margie Singleton)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
(I'm guilty this time)
There you go again accusing it's just your jealous ways
Jealousy is living now where our love used me
At first I just ignore you now I'm making alibis
Cause the things you accuse me of I'm guilty of this time
Your jealous words painted pictures very deeply in my mind
Though for the first now I'm guilty I've been convicted all the time
Why I never would have noticed him only you my eyes could see
But you paved my way into his arms is it right that you blamed me
If it gives consolation and satisfies your mind
Go ahead and accuse me I'm guilty this time
Go ahead and accuse me I'm guilty this time

WHAT WOULD I DO
(Leon Ashley - Margie Singleton)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
(Oh what would I do if you were gone)
Just when our world was the darkest
And every dream and plan I had went wrong
You were there like a bright ray of sunshine
And you gave me your strenght to go on
What would I do if you should leave me
And take the future I've been counting on
After giving me your reason for living
Oh what would I do if you were gone
In my mind I know you're only one
And there's always a chance you may be wrong
But for me have the chance well worth taking
Cause I know I can't live if you were gone
What would I do if you should leave me...

I DON'T WANT TO BE HURT ANYMORE
(Charlotte McCarthy)
« © '65 WB Music, ASCAP »
I don't want to be hurt anymore by a part time love affair
And I don't want to be cry like before why pretend again you care
Please don't court me back into your arms
I've been fooled many times by your charms
And I know if I'd kiss you I might not resist you
I don't want to be hurt anymore
(Please don't court me back into your arms)
I've been fooled too many times by your charms
And I know if I kissed you I might not resist you
I don't want to be hurt anymore
