Everything That You Want

Jack W. Routh - Randy Sharp

© Ten Cal Music, BMI

In the beginning the nights were long
Under the moonlight I could do no wrong
You told me I was everything you wanted me to be

Then summer was over and the nights grew cold
You got restless and hard to hold
I tried to be everything you wanted me to be

Now you keep staring at that open door
You got what you wanted and you still want more
Well look at me I'm everything you wanted me to be

If I don't keep you satisfied
You can't say that I haven't tried
And if I'm not what you want by now
For the life of me I can't see how
I'll ever be everything that you want me to be
[ instrumental ]
In the beginning the nights were long
Under the moonlight I could do no wrong
Remember me I was everything you wanted me to be

Well if I don't keep you satisfied...

I'll ever be everything that you want me to be
I'll ever be oh I'll never be I'll ever be oh I'll never be

Read My Mind

Keith Thomas - Melissa Coleman - Todd Moore

A penny for my thoughts you say
You wanna know what I could be thinking
But as I speak the music starts to play
And the words just somehow slip away

Read my mind it will tell you that I love you
And you're all I ever wanted in a man
You'd see how I feel what my head won't let my heart reveal
If only you could read my mind read my mind

One look from you and look at me
I'm trembling like a little girl
I tell myself if I can just believe
Any day now you'll fall in love with me

Read my mind it will tell you that I love you
And you're all I ever wanted in a man
You'd see how I feel what my head won't let my heart reveal
If only you could read my mind
Tell me if you feel the same way I do
Oh and tell me that I'm not mistakenly taken with you
[ instrumental ]
You're all I ever wanted in a man you see
All I need is everything you are to me
If you could somehow read my mind
You would see what I can't seem to say
If only you could if you would read my mind read my mind

I Won't Stand In Line

Steve Diamond - Randy Sharp

© Longitude Music, BMI

You told me I was one in a million
Everything that you wanted in this world
When every time I turn around I hear tell you paint the town
With one of those million other girls

Oh what you do to me is not the question
I swear I felt the magic from the start
I see the promise of a legendary love
But I am not about to share your heart

I'd do almost anything just to make you mine
But I won't stand in line
(I won't stand in line) waiting for your call
(I won't take a number) just to take a fall
(So make up your mind) I won't stand in line
[ instrumental ]
How long do you think that you can handle
Keeping all those hearts up in the air
Don't you know in time you're bound to stumble
And when that day comes it won't be my affair

Oh I'd do almost anything just to make you mine...
[ guitar ]
Oh I'd do almost anything just to make you mine...

I Wish That I Could Tell You

Tony Martin - Van Stephenson - Reese Wilson

© Music Of Stage Three, BMI

How do you tell someone you're letting go
I wish that I could tell you
But you're asking me things that I don't know
I wish that I could tell you

The words that I would say sound as empty as the way you feel inside
While the silence in between tells me everything that you deny
I don't know how to help you
I wish that I could tell you how to tell me goodbye

I don't know how you leave it all behind
I wish that I could tell you
Is it true a heart heals itself with time
I wish that I could tell you

How do you choose do you hurt 'em with the truth or with a lie
Where do you go to find the courage you know I could never find
I don't know how to help you
I wish that I could tell you how to tell me goodbye

Where do you turn where do you go
When you've finally reached the end of the road
How do you say it I just don't know
When it comes to leaving you're on your own

How do you tell someone you're letting go
I wish that I could tell you
Oh I wish that I could tell you

She Thinks His Name Was John

Sandy Knox - Steve Rosen

© Bash Music, ASCAP

She can account for all of the men in her past
Where they are now who they married how many kids they have
She knew their backgrounds family and friends
A few she even talks to now and then
But there is one she can't put her finger on
There is one who never leaves her thoughts
And she thinks his name was John

A chance meeting a party a few years back
Broad shoulders and blue eyes his hair was so black
He was a friend of a friend you could say
She let his smile just sweep her away
And in her heart oh she knew it was wrong
But too much wine and she left his bed at dawn
And she thinks his name was John
[ instrumental ]
Now each day is one day that's left to her life
She won't know love have a marriage or sing lullabies
She lays all alone and cries herself to sleep
Cause she let a stranger kill her hopes and her dreams
And all her friends say what a pity what a loss
And in the end when she was barely hanging on
All she could say is she thinks his name was John
She thinks his name was John

Why Haven't I Heard From You

Sandy Knox - T.W. Hale

© Bash Music, ASCAP

Well back in 1876 an ol' boy named Bell
Invented a contraption that we know so well
By the 1950's they were in everybody's home
That crazy little thing they call the telephone
Now there's one on every corner in the back of every bar
You can get one in your briefcase on a plane or in your car

So tell me why haven't I heard from you
Tell me why haven't I heard from you
I say my darlin' honey what is your excuse
Why haven't I heard from you
[ instrumental ]
Well there's no problem gettin' to me baby you can dial direct
I got call forwardin' call waitin' you can even call collect
The service man he told me that my phone was workin' fine
And I've come to the conclusion the trouble isn't with my line
I'm sure the operator will be glad to put you through
So dial zero for assistance if this all confuses you

So tell me why haven't I heard from you...

There better been a flood a landslide of mud
A fire that burns up the wires
And thunder so loud with a black funnel cloud
A natural disaster I know nothin' about

Tell me why haven't I heard from you...
So tell me why haven't I heard from you...

And Still

Tommy James - Liz Hengber

© Warner-Tamerlane Pub, BMI

Thousands of people live in this town and I had to run into him
When I saw him there on that busy street those feelings came back again
There was nowhere to run nowhere to hide
He walked up to me looked in my eyes

And still the world stood still
I couldn't move and all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart saying I loved him still

He said how've you been it's great to see you again
You're really a sight for sore eyes I said I can't complain
Oh I'm doing fine we talked as the people rushed by
We laughed about old times and all we went through
That's when he hugged me and said I've missed you

And still the world stood still...

That's when she walked up to him he said this is my wife
I gave my best smile but I was dying inside
He said we gotta go now it's getting late
It was so good to see you then they walked away

And still my world stood still...

The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter

Mark D. Sanders - Ed Hill - Kim Williams

© WB Music, ASCAP

She came in lookin' good and lookin' around
She's checkin' out every man in the room right now
Don't go tellin' her about right or wrong
She's been alone way too long

Oh the heart is a lonely hunter with only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort in the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger to the dark of the neon light
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter when there's no sign of love in sight
[ instrumental ]
She hears him say hey can I buy you a drink
And sees the pale white circle where he wears his ring
She knows he's dealin' her a dangerous hand
The consequences of a one night stand

But the heart is a lonely hunter with only one desire...

From somewhere deep inside she tells him no
Before she starts to cry she turns to go

Oh the heart is a lonely hunter with only one desire...
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter when there's no sign of love in sight

I Wouldn't Wanna Be You

Jeff Silbar - Randy Sharp

© Silbarsongs, ASCAP

If you don't have a clue you're so far gone
He's got you dancin' to a siren's song
I wouldn't wanna be you right now I wouldn't wanna be

I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be I wouldn't wanna be
You're not the first he's drawn to his flame
He means to do you wrong he has no shame
I wouldn't wanna be you right now I wouldn't wanna be

I wouldn't wanna be you right now
I wouldn't wanna be I wouldn't wanna be you
It's easy to understand how you could fall so hard
You're not the only one he's taken in and torn apart
[ instrumental ]
Won't say I told you so but I'm afraid it's true
You're about to go what I went through

I wouldn't wanna be you right now...
[ instrumental ]
I wouldn't wanna be you right now...

Till You Love Me

Bob DiPiero - Gary Burr

© Tree Pub, BMI

I sent you roses I warned you I would
Do all that I could to show you the way that I feel
Please don't say I'm wasting my time
I've got nothing but time so I'll do all that I can
To catch that ghost of a chance

The sunlight the moonlight are beyond my control
And there are stars in the heavens that I'll never hold
But if dreams give you power then I'm strong enough to offer my heart
And never give up till you love me till you love me

I looked in your eyes so bright and so blue
And that's when I knew that you could be mine
If good things come to those who will wait
Well I guess I can wait if that's what I have to do
Oh it's worth it for you

The sunlight the moonlight are beyond my control...
