It feels so right
When I’m with you
And I’m never looking back
Took a while
For me to say it, but you’re
The best thing I’ve ever had
And I know
Some days are like this
There’s somewhere that you’d rather be
Oh, I know
It’s been a long week but
Darling, when you look at me
Suddenly I’m no longer in pieces
Whenever I’m around you
Finally I come to my senses
And I just wanna hold you
You say - I believe in tiny miracles
You say - we can build our own little paradise
Together - somewhere far away from here
Come with me - you and I, in our own little paradise
And I know
You’ll pretend not to notice
Like you’d never seen it before
But my eyes tell a story
Of someone who
Yearns for something so much more
Then suddenly I’m no longer in pieces
Whenever I’m around you
Finally I come to my senses
And I just wanna hold you
You say - I believe in tiny miracles
You say - we can build our own little paradise
Together - somewhere, far away from here
Come with me - you and I, in our own little paradise
In our own little paradise
You say - I believe in tiny miracles
You say - we can build our own little paradise
Together - somewhere, far away from here
Come with me - you and I, in our own little paradise
In our own little paradise

Two Guitars

Looking back at old times
Picture you and I
Thinking when you were mine
And oh, how I was yours
You would lay beside me
And whisper in my ear
That you'd always guide me
And always keep me near
Now I've got my two guitars
The big sky and the stars
To guide me on the way
And that's about all I have to say
Sometimes things just don't work out
And sometimes everything is wrong
Sometimes you'd be better off
To find your own way
If I had never let you go
I'd still be lying on the floor
With your words on my mind
I would cry, I'd cry, I'd cry
But I've got my two guitars
The big sky and the stars
To guide me on the way
And that's about - just about - all I have to say
I wonder if you ever think of me
Or think about where I might be
Well, I'm still standing
'Cause I've got my two guitars
The big sky and the stars
To guide me on the way
And that's about, just about, ooh about, all I had to say
Looking back at old times
Picture you and I
Thinking when you were mine
And oh, how I was yours.

When I Need Her

Time stands still
Whenever she’s away
In the night I weep alone
Time stands still
As the morning waits to
Tell its story
So that everyone can see
Your love affecting on me
Time stands still
As her voice echoes
Inside my head
Oh, the things she says to me
When time stands still...
My thoughts are running wild
And when I hold her in my arms
My love grows stronger
And when I need her love so much
She holds me closer
And when I feel the dawn coming
I hold her tighter
’cause when she goes
I’m all alone
Time stands still
Whenever she’s away
In the night I weep alone
But when she’s here
Her beauty wipes out my sorrow
And when I hold her in my arms
My love grows stronger
And when I need her love so much
She holds me closer
And when I feel the dawn coming
I hold her tighter
’cause when she goes
I’m all alone
And when I hold her in my arms
My love grows stronger
And when I need her love so much
She holds me closer
And when I feel the dawn coming
I hold her tighter
’cause when she goes
I’m all alone

More Than I Do

Would you like to see the sunrise?
She said, and held me by the hand
And I saw a light in her eyes
I might never understand
Would you hold me for a lifetime and more
And never let me go
I was standing there like lightning struck me
Thinking how to say...
I could never love you
Feel as if I'm somebody new
Light as a feather
Floating from across the room
Make it last forever
I've fallen for it so many times
I thought "I could never love you"
Mmm... more than I do
Was a time when I was lonely
And didn't hold much hope
Now you are with me every day
Showing me once more
I must have been so, so crazy
To ever fall in love
But you are still here to make me
Fall even more
I could never love you
Feel as if I'm somebody new
Light as a feather
Floating from across the room
Make it last forever
I've fallen for it so many times
I thought "I could never love you"
Mmm... more than I do
As soon as that lightning struck me
I knew I was done for life
So I'm keeping you right beside me
Oh, my beautiful wife
I could never love you
Feel as if I'm somebody new
Light as a feather
Floating from across the room
Make it last forever
I've fallen for it so many times
I thought "I could never love you"
Mmm... more than I do

Ever And Ever

If I could be the one you want
Would it be the kind of love that's forever
Ever and ever
And when everything is right
You will love all day and night
Oh baby, don't say maybe
It could never end this way
It will never be the same
And if love is a game
Then I lost
'cause I am over here
And you are over there
And I'm over you
Until we meet again
Sure I'd like to see
All these dreams come true
But I guess they never will
You don't know just who I am
But I'll do what I can
To correct that
To make sure that
You know what's inside of me
And I wish that we could be
Well, maybe someday
I'll hear you say
That it could never end this way
Things will never be the same
And if love is a game
We win (darlin')
But I am over here
And you are over there
And I'm over you
Until we meet again
Baby can't you see
All our dreams come true
Oh how I hope they will
And all I can think about, it's all about you
And all that I dream, I dream only of you
And all I can say is that I adore you
But all that I know..
Is that I am over here
And you are over there
And I'm over you
...until we meet again

Driven
04:10

Grew up in the country
But always felt like there is something
Different waiting for me
Not that I wasn’t happy
But something ‘bout the big world
Kept calling out my name
And since I was about six
I remember thinking that
There must be something more than this
So I’d always play it safe
Just keep waiting for the day
When I’m old enough to go my own way
Now, don’t get me wrong
‘Cause we had a beautiful home
I had lots of friends, a loving family
But I always wanted to know
How far one could go...
Just a country boy like me
Cause I'm driven
I'll use what I've been given
That makes life worth living to me
I wanna see what I can be
Yes, I’m driven
And I'll never stop believing
Oh, it’s both a blessing and a curse
But I know it could be worse
I’m just driven.
And I remember after high school
My friends all settled down
They had their lives figured out
Alone in the big world
I was making my own way
Yet sometimes wishing I could stay and
Go back to the country
And just be happy with my life
Oh, how I wish it was that easy...
But if I stop going now
We’ll never know just how
Far this country boy can go
(Chorus)
Oh, when will I ever settle down?
Maybe when I’m six feet underground…
(Chorus)
Yeah - no stopping me
Ain’t no stopping me...
Because I'm driven.
