Talking In Your Sleep

Roger Cook - Bobby Wood

© Screen Gems Music, BMI

Three o'clock in the morning
And it looks like it's gonna be another sleepless night
I've been listenin' to your dreams and gettin' very low
Wondering what I can do

Maybe I'm being foolish
Cause I haven't heard you mention anybody's name at all
How I wish I could be sure it's me that turns you on
Each time you close your eyes I've heard it said that dreamers never lie

You've been talking' in your sleep sleeping in your dreams
Wish some sweet lover holding on so tight
Loving her the way you used to love me
Talking in your sleep with lovin' on your mind

Maybe I'm being foolish...
You've been talking' in your sleep sleeping in your dreams...
You've been talking' in your sleep sleeping in your dreams...

Please Come To Boston

Dave Loggins

© Leeds Music, ASCAP

He said please come to Boston for the springtime
I'm staying here with some friends and they've got lots of rooms
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
By a cafe where I hope to be working soon
Please come to Boston I said no boy would you come home to me

I said rambling boy why don't you settle down
Boston ain't your kind of town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

He said please come to Denver with the snowfall
We'll move up into the mountains so far we can't be found
And throw I love you echoes down the canyon
And then lie awake at night until they come back around
Please come to Denver I just said no would you come home to me

I said rambling boy why don't you settle down
Denver ain't your kind of town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

Now this drifter's world goes round and round
And I doubt if it's ever gonna stop
But of all the dreams I've lost or found
And all that I ain't got
He still need to lean to somebody he can sing to

He said please come to LA to live forever
California life alone is just too hard to live
I live in a house that looks out over the ocean
There's some stars that fell from the sky living up on the hill
Please come to LA I said no boy would you come home to me

I said rambling boy why don't you settle down
LA ain't your kind of town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee Tennessee

On My Own

Carole Bayer Sager - Burt Bacharach

© New Hidden Valley Music, ASCAP

with Trisha Yearwood & Martina McBride & Linda Davis

So many times I said it was forever said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew I'd be lying there beside him
On my own on my own on my own

Oh so many promises never should be spoken now you know what loving him costs
Now you're even talking divorce and you weren't even married
On my own once again I'm one more time by myself

No one said it would be easy no but it once was so easy
Well I believe in love now here I stand you wonder why
I'm on my own why did it end this way on my own
This wasn't how it was supposed to be on my own

I wish that we could do it all again so many times I know I could have told you
That losing him would cut like a knife he walked out and there went your life
I don't want to live without him on my own
This wasn't how it was supposed to end on my own

I wish that we could do it all again on my own
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone by myself on my own
You've got to find out where you belong again on my own
You've got to learn how to be strong again on my own

I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone by myself
You've got to find out where you belong again
Your hear is saying that it's time again
And I know you're gonna shine again

I Won't Mention It Again

Cam Mullins

© Seaview Music, BMI

I know you're tired of being all I ever wanted
You'll no longer feel the love I have for you
What happens now what will I do with all the mem'ries
And the dreams of all the things we'll never do

But I won't mention it again I won't think about tomorrow
Just let it happen live each hour day by day
But let me tell you before you go how much I love you
Then I won't mention it again I won't mention it again

I feel my life has reached an early sign of autumn
In my heart the leaves are falling love is cold
And everything that once was warm and new is gone now
Leaving nothing but this hunger in my soul

But I won't mention it again I won't think about tomorrow...

You're No Good

Clint Ballard

© Bourne Co, ASCAP

I'm feelin' better now that we're through feelin' better cause I'm over you
I learned my lesson it left a scar now I see how you really are

You're no good you're no good you're no good baby you're no good
I'm gonna say it again
You're no good you're no good you're no good baby you're no good

I broke a heart that's gentle and true so I left a man over someone like you
I beg your forgiveness on bended knee but I wouldn't blame him if he said to me

Baby you're no good you're no good baby you're no good...
[ instrumental ]
I'm telling you now baby that I'm going my way
Forget about you baby cause I'm leaving today

You're no good you're no good baby you're no good...
Yeah you're no good you're no good you're no good baby you're no good

Ring On My Finger Time On My Hands

Don Goodman - Mary Ann Kennedy - Pam Rose

© Blackwood Music, BMI

I stood before God my family and friends
And vowed that I'd never love anyone else again only him
As pure as my gown of white I stood by his side
And promised that I'd love him till the day I die
Lord please forgive me even though I lied
Cause you're the only one who knows just how hard I tried

I had a ring on my finger and time on my hands
The woman in me needed the warmth of a man
The gold turned cold in my wedding band
It's just a ring on your finger when there's time on your hands

But I add up all the countless nights I cried myself to sleep
And all the broken promises he somehow failed to keep
He can't blame me
He's the one who left me too many times alone
In a tree bedroom prison I'd try to make a home
My love slowly died but the fire inside still burned
And the arms of a stranger was the only place left to turn

I had a ring on my finger and time on my hands..
[ instrumental ]
I had a ring on my finger..

500 Miles Away From Home

Bobby Bare - Charlie Williams - Hedy West

© Friendship Music, BMI

Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she wrote
She said we miss you girl we love you come on home
Well I didn't have to pack I had it all right on my back
Now I'm five hundred miles away from home

Away from home away from home cold and tired and all alone
Yes I'm five hundred miles away from home

It's hard to tell the state I'm in where I'm going where I've been
But there's a dream I've been following so long
If mama knew the things I've done she'd forgive them every one
But I'm five hundred miles away from home

Away from home away from home...
[ instrumental ]
Can't remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and wait
And I'm still five hundred miles away from home
If my luck had been just right I'd be with them all tonight
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home

Away from home away from home...
Lord I'm still five hundred miles away from home

Starting Over Again

Donna Summer - Bruce Sudano

© Sweet Summer Night Music, ASCAP

Moma moved out daddy sold the house
They split up the money and went on their way
And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put mama and daddy back together again

Starting over again where should they begin
Cause they've never been out on their own
Starting over again where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered and the kids are all grown
And the whole world cries

Got an apartment she moved in with her sisters
He's scheming big deals with one of his friends
While she sits at home sorting out pieces
Of left over memories from thirty odd years

Starting over again where do you begin
You've never been out on your own
Starting over again never any end

What will the neighbors say they're talking talk its small town news
Facing fifty years old making up a happy home
And this far down the road you find yourself alone two fools

Starting over again oh where do you begin
When you've never been out on your own
Starting over again oh never any end
When your dreams are all shattered and the kids are all grown

And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Could never put mama and daddy back together

You Keep Me Hangin' On

Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Eddie Holland

© Jobete Music, ASCAP

Set me free why don't you baby get off my life why don't you baby
Cause you don't really love me you just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me but you keep me hangin' on

Why do you keep a comin' around playin' with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life and let me make a new start
Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me

You say although we broke up you still wanna be just friends
But how can we be friends when seeing you only breaks my heart again
You claim you still care for me but your heart and soul need to be free
Now that you got your freedom baby you wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself so let me find somebody else

Why don't you be a man about it and set me free
You don't care a thing about me you're just using me
So get out get out get out of my life ad let me sleep at night
Cause you don't really love me you just keep me hangin' on
Keep me hangin' on keep me hangin' on

By The Time I Get To Phoenix

Jim Webb

© Johnny Rivers Music, BMI

By the time I get to Phoenix he'll be rising
He'll find the note I left hanging on his door
And he'll laugh when he reads the part that says I'm leaving
Cause I've left that man so many times before

By the time I make Albuquerque he'll be working
He'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call
But he'll just hear that phone keep on ringing
Off the wall that's all

By the time I make Oklahoma he'll be sleeping
He'll turn softly and call my name out low
And he'll cry just to think I'd really leave him
Though time and time I've tried to tell him so
Oh he just didn't know I would really go I would really go
