Ten Pound Hammer

Dennis Linde

© Blackwood Music, BMI

If someone had told me
That one man could hold me
And leave me weak as a baby
I'da told 'em they were crazy then

Love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing
Yeah love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing

I used to play it so cool
Lord knows I was no fool
No chains would ever bind me
But those days are all behind me ya see

Love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing
Yeah love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing

I never saw love's power
Just the hearts and the flowers
And when I fell it was frightening
It struck me down like lightening when

I used to live like a rollin' stone
Nobody had a hold on me
All it took was a kiss from you
To bring me right down to my knees all right

Love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing
Yeah love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing

Love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing
Yeah love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing

Love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing
Yeah love hit me like a ten pound hammer
A ten pound hammer with a six-foot swing

Get Here

Brenda Russell

© WB Music, ASCAP

You can reach me by railway
You can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane
You can reach me with your mind

You can reach me by caravan
Cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here
Just get here if you can

You can reach me by sail boat
Climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope
Into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt
Cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here
Just get here if you can

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
But if I had my way surely you would be closer
I need you closer
[ instrumental ]
There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
But if I had my way surely you would be closer
I need you closer

You can windsurf into my life
Take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon
But you better make it soon

You can reach me by caravan
Cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here
Just get here if you can

I want you to get here I need you right now
I just want you to get here just get here
I need you want you gotta have you right now
I want you to get here
I don't care how you do it
Just get here

Love By Any Name

Don Pfrimmer - Jim Doddario

© Pi-Gem Music, BMI

You touch my heart when you're holding my hand
And you're always with me wherever I am
It's so easy to feel and so hard to explain
This wonderful feeling with so many names

Some call it a rose some call it a flame
Some say it's a treasure some swear it's a game
It's always so different and always the same
When we're together it's love by any name

What in a kiss drives a woman so wild
What leaves the man with the strength of a child
Not a good night goes by but I don't realize
The answer is sweetly in front of my eyes

Some call it a rose some call it a flame
Some say it's a treasure some swear it's a game
It's always so different and always the same
When we're together it's love by any name

It's nothing that I say or anything I do
Whatever lives inside my heart gets its life from you
[ instrumental ]
It's always so different and always the same
When we're together it's love by any name

A Little Time For Us

Sam Hogin - Monty Powell - Kim Williams

© Screen Gems Music, BMI

Time is a river that rolls on forever
But it always runs dry when we try to get together
Living our lives for these all nine-to-five's
But I ain't gonna take it no more

If I have to beg steal or borrow
Forget about tomorrow starting tonight
I'm gonna take back the hours that used to be ours
It's the only way love can survive
Lord knows that I ain't asking for much
Just a little time for us

You going your way and me going mine
And time for each other is getting harder to find
It's just not enough time left for love
And baby you know that ain't right

If I have to beg steal or borrow
Forget about tomorrow starting tonight
I'm gonna take back the hours that used to be ours
It's the only way love can survive
Lord knows that I ain't asking for much
Just a little time for us
Just a little time for us

Love ain't got a chance in a race against time
Everybody knows it can't fly
If we're gonna win it we gotta steal every minute
So it's time we made up our minds

Beg steal or borrow
Forget about tomorrow starting tonight
Take back the hours that used to be ours
It's the only way love can survive
Lord knows that we ain't asking for much
Just a little time for us
Just a little time for us
Just a little time for us
