I STILL BELIEVE IN WALTZES

(Bob Morrison - Jim McBride - Michael D. Hughes) « © '80 Bob Morrison Music, ASCAP / Music City Music, ASCAP »
She pushed me away and tearfully said
I'm just not that kind of girl
You might think I'm square cause you've been around
And you're wise in the ways of the world
I know that makin' it's takin' for granted
It's all easy come easy go
But I pulled her close and whispered now darlin'
There's somethin' I want you to know

I still believe in waltzes and girls with old fashioned ways
I still believe in love songs and the good in the gool old days
I've always liked happy endings and somebody's dream coming true
I still believe in waltzes and dancing the last one with you
[ piano ] I slipped into bed she turned over and said
I'm worried you're working so late
It is just your job that keeps you away
Lord I know them temptations are great
I'm just a wife and I'm just a mama
That's not too exciting I know
But I pulled her close and whispered those same words
I told her that night ago

I still believe in waltzes and girls with old fashioned ways
I still believe in love songs and the good in the gool old days
I've always liked happy endings and somebody's dream coming true
I still believe in waltzes and I'll dance the last one with you
I still believe in waltzes

ONCE IS NOT ENOUGH KIND OF LOVE

(Troy Seals - Eddie Setser - Dobie Gray) « © '80 American Leauge Music, BMI / Bug Music, BMI /
Simonton Music, BMI / Warner-Tamerlane Publishing, BMI »

We ain't moved no mountains we ain't touched the sky
But ooh the nights we try
We ain't storybook sweethearts we don't show it off that much
But ooh when we touch

When you pull the covers off of my feelings everything just falls into place
And ooh that look on your face

We're once is not enough kind of lovers there ain't no tellin' when we'll stop
We're once is not enough kind of lovers we hold on till we get every drop
It's got a good feelin' about it fits just like a hand in a glove
We never go a night without it once is not enough kind of love
We're once is not enough kind of love

We ain't set the world on fire but we're burnin' up the night
And ooh we sure do it right

We're once is not enough kind of lovers...
We're once is not enough kind of lovers...
We're once is not enough kind of love

HERO FOR A DAY

(Wayne Carson Thompson - Ronnie Reno) « © '78 Screen Gems Music, BMI / Colgems Music, ASCAP »
Lady you need a lover someone to take you and love you all the way
I know you long for that feeling for a man to be stealing your heart away
You need a hero for a day

You'll never be missing the moments that we're kissing
I'll never steal your love away
Just let me borrow one memory for tomorrow
I'll be your hero for a day

Lady you need a lover someone to take you all the way
Let me be your hero a place where you can go
Let me be your hero for a day
Lady I'll be your hero

I AM THE DREAMER (YOU ARE THE DREAM)

(Russ Allison - Dallas Cody - Dave Hall) « © '80 Warner-Tamerlane Publishing, BMI »
A kiss in the dark a touch of your hand
My arms are around you my dream begins
The only thing that's different than any other night
Here we are together my dream by my side

I am the dreamer you are the dream
You are the answer to my fantasy
All that I have dreamed of now is complete
I am the dreamer you are the dream

I know that I've been dreaming and I finally saw the light
With my arms wide open I found the love that's right
You don't have to wake me for me to know it's real
The love that I have dreamed of I can touch and feel

I am the dreamer you are the dream...
I am the dreamer you are the dream...

REST YOUR LOVE ON ME

(Barry Gibb) « © '76 Crompton Songs, BMI »
Maybe you don't know me anymore than I know you
And I wouldn't blame you if you walked away
I've been watching you all evening with those teardrops in her eye
And it touches me much more than I can say
You know I hate to think that someone could have hurt someone like you
And if I was him I'd be right by your side
Lay your troubles on my shoulder put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me a while
Lay your troubles on my shoulder put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me a while

Saw you in the corner and the moment I walked in
Saw your lonely face across the room
No I won't forget you and the way it could have been
Why'd you have to leave so soon
You know I hate to think there's someone you loved instead of me
And at times like this I'd be right by your side
Lay your troubles on my shoulder put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me a while
Lay your troubles on my shoulder put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me a while
[ guitar ] Lay your troubles on my shoulder put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me a while
Lay your troubles on my shoulder put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me a while
[ guitar ] **********

FOR ALL THE RIGHT REASONS

(Billy Ray Reynolds - Marie B. Hartford) « © '76 Tree Publishing, BMI »
When warm feelings bring us so close together
For all the right reasons I love you
When we're as close as a heartbeat that's when I'm strongest
For all the right reasons girl I love you

Lay down here beside me I'll cover you and keep you warm
Hold me close and let me I love you you know where you belong
When warm feelings bring us so close together
For all the right reasons you know I love you
[ guitar ] When warm feelings bring us so close together
For all the right reasons girl I love you
For all the right reasons I love you
[ guitar ] **********

WE'RE GONNA TRY IT TONIGHT

(Linda Hargrove - Mary Ann Kennedy - Pam Rose) « © '79 Careers Music, BMI »
We're gonna try it tonight
We're gonna see if we can make love come between us right
We're gonna lay love down and keep it warm till morning light
So when the fire ignites hold on tight we're gonna try it tonight

Day after day you're the one I go out of my way to see
Night after night I wonder when you'll get around to lovin' me
We been feeling without touching touching without reaching for love
But love has reached for us

So we're gonna try it tonight...

At last we're alone deep inside desire is finally flowing free
Love how it's grown in just these moments you've been holding me
Now we're feeling without touching touching while we're reaching for love
Love has come to us

So we're gonna try it tonight...
We're gonna try it tonight...

YOU'LL BE BACK (EVERY NIGHT IN MY DREAMS)

(Wayland Holyfield - Johnny Russell) « © '78 Sunflowers Music, BMI / PolyGram Int, ASCAP »
All my friends ask what they can do to help me get over you
But I'm not blue and all broken in two why should I miss you

Cause you'll be back every night in my dreams
You'll be back and it won't even seem
Like you're gone no I won't be alone
Cause you'll be back every night in my dreams

Walk the floor and cry until dawn watch the door and sit by the phone
Oh no not me why worry and moan just because you're gone

You'll be back every night in my dreams...
You'll be back every night in my dreams...
You'll be back every night in my dreams...

BRIDGE THAT JUST WON'T BURN

(Roger Murrah - Jim McBride) « © '80 Blackwood Music, BMI / Careers Music, BMI »
I threw away the pictures of those better days in Dallas
But I can't throw away these pictures in my mind oh no
She's a page of precious memories I've tried hard to turn
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn

If only time will heal the hurt then this may last forever
I may never know how it feels to forget
Everytime I think about her those old feelings still return
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn

I've burned a lot of bridges in my time
But the one I just crossed over Lord it ain't the burning kind
She's that once in a lifetime kind of love that never will return
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn
Oh she's standing on a bridge that just won't burn

WHEN THE FEELING'S RIGHT

(Lewis Anderson) « © '80 Careers Music, BMI »
If you've got a woman that you really love
You've got to show her what you're thinking of
You've got to tell her when she looks fine
Then she'll know what you've got on your mind

And when the feeling's right she knows what to do
That girl's gonna pour her loving all over you
Yeah when the feeling's right you better hold on
That girl's gonna love you right all night long
[ steel + fiddle ] You've got to show her you mean what you say
Be proud of here every single day
You've got to hold her and kiss her sweet lips
Feel her body with your fingertips

When the feeling's right she knows what to do...
[ steel + fiddle ] You've got to be there when she needs a friend
Give her loving that will never end
You've got to touch her so gentle and so kind
If you want her you've got to give her a sign

When the feeling's right she knows what to do...
When the feeling's right she knows what to do...
