Baby, I Love You

Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun comes up
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun comes up
Oh, the rooster is crowin’, the sunlight is showin’
The love in our happy little garden is growin’
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun comes up
Baby, I love you, baby, in the midday sun
Baby, I love you, baby, in the midday sun
Oh, the sun is a-blazin’ the heat is a-hazin’
Our love’s shinin’ bright, so you better not be gazin’
Baby, I love you, baby, in the midday sun
It’s a happy little life
But the storm clouds will roll in
The rain is what helps us grow
Keep your head up and you’ll find
When the water meets the light you get a rainbow
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun goes down
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun goes down
Oh, the babies are sleepin’, the moonlight is creepin’
The crickets sing a song about lovin’ on the deep end
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun goes down
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun goes down
Baby, I love you, baby, when the sun goes down

Fool's Gold
03:54

I had so much I wanted to say
Only after you turned and walked away
There’s no amount of whiskey
That can drown this over time
Not every heart that feels will love find
Sweet gilded lies
Honey, you made a fool out of me
Your shiny gold has left me hollow
Fool’s gold
Well it’s been a while that we felt this way
3 years, 2 months, and 15 days
Anything can lose its luster
If you don’t mind it over time
Not every love is meant to withstand time
Sweet gilded lies
Oh honey, you made a fool out of me
Your shiny gold has left me hollow
Fool’s gold
Fool’s gold
I can see the love in your eyes sometimes
I can feel the love from your heart sometimes
It helps me remember
Then I remember all of those
Sweet gilded lies
Oh honey, you made a fool out of me
Your shiny gold has left me hollow
Your shiny gold has left me hollow
Fool’s gold
Fool’s gold
I had so much I wanted to say
Only after you turned and walked away

Ghost

I been looking all around this old house
Looking for a ghost
Searching for you is all I can do
But nothing seems to glow
I been waiting right here on this couch
Waiting for a ghost
What’s her name, and do we look the same
Is she funny just like me
How could you do this to me
When my heart was all that I could bring
I’ll keep my wits about me
I’ll keep my wits about me
You’ll see, you’ll see
I been looking all around this old house
Looking for a ghost
Searching for you is all I can do
But nothing seems to glow

Room For Me
04:00
|

|
I’ve been thinking what does it mean to be free
If I let something go could it come back to me
I’ve been wondering how much time do you need
To know if your heart has room for me
Do you have room for me
I’ve been feeling so tired lately
This has taken its toll emotionally
I can’t turn off my brain so it seems
But we’ve got the same fears
We’re scared of the same things
Do you have room for me
Do you have room for me
If I see you out I promise
I’ll try to be strong, I don’t want to cry
But it never felt quite right saying goodbye
Do you have room for me
Do you have room for me
Do you have room for me
Do you have room for me
I’ve been thinking what does it mean to be free
If I let something go could it come back to me
I’ve been wondering how much time do you need
To know if your heart has room for me
Do you have room for me
Room for me
Room for me

Lonely & Blue
03:55

I thought that I saw you tonight
Downtown, you were quick out of sight
He was tall just like you and his woman was too
And it left me feeling lonely and blue
I thought that I saw you tonight
Your heart has been broken in two
By the things that I said and I do
When I stumble through that door
Your heart cracks a little more
But you know that I’ll love you till I die
I wanted to call you tonight
To see if we could make all this right
But I’ve had too much to drink
To tell you what I think
But I wonder if you’re lonely and blue
I dreamt about you tonight
We were happy, the whole world felt just right
Then the phone woke me up
They said your body turned up
With a note that said I’ll love her till I die
I wanted to call you tonight
To see if we could make all this right
Baby, my heart was too sore
But I don’t hurt anymore
But I wonder if you’re lonely and blue
I thought that I saw you tonight
I thought that I saw you tonight
And I should have just called you tonight

Harvest
03:53

Mama’s been wondering if another hard year
Will keep Daddy drowning his worry in beer
Sister is sleeping, not a worry in sight
We’ve been working in the dark at night
Mama’s been wondering if another hard year
Will take Daddy’s mind, leave his body here
Crops they can spoil, old mules die
We keep working these fields at night
Harvest moon, you couldn’t have come too soon
Sister, still sleeping, not a worry in sight
We’re gonna clear these fields tonight

Big Adventure
04:13
|

|
Summer romance blossomed
Faster than we both could tell
We weren’t ready for this
I wasn’t ready for how far I fell
Oh I fell…
Clouds of dust and dirt roads
Beyond our fields of gold
Seasons change and so have we
Never been so cold
I need this, but you won’t
I want more, and you don’t
Baby it hurts
But we know what we gotta do
Go have your big adventure
I can’t say I’ll be here when you come home
Look up at night, see the moon shine bright
You will know you do not wander alone
Alone, you do not wander alone
Alone, you do not wander alone
Explorer at heart, with a brand new start
I wonder what you’re doing now
You were right about me, I fall in love too easy
I still miss you somehow
I need this, you won’t
I want more, but you don’t
Baby it hurts
But we know what we gotta do
Go have your big adventure
I can’t say I’ll be here when you come home
Look up at night, see the moon shine bright
You will know you do not wander alone
Alone, you do not wander alone
Alone, you do not wander alone

Go Easy On Me

Janie’s gonna have herself a baby
Little boys bring a lot of joy
But he won’t be like the others
He’s gonna have himself a real hard life
The doctor says it’s best to put him to rest
Janie holds her head and she cries
She’s not much for praying
But she sings it out loud
Janie’s got herself a birthday boy
He’s turning five, how the time flies
No, he’s never been like the others
But he’s happy and he loves to ride his bike
It all happened so fast, the car was trying to pass
Janie beats the walls and she cries
She’s not much for praying
But she sings it out loud
Stop, don’t make a sound
He’s just a baby
He don’t belong in the ground
Life won’t you please go easy on me, go easy on me
Janie’s little boy is now a man
What a joy it was to raise that boy
No, he’ll never be like the others
But she’s taught him how to love and survive
The doctor said son, she don’t have very long
Janie hears her boy start to cry
She’s not much for praying
But she sings it out loud
Stop, don’t make a sound
What happens to him
When I’m trapped in the ground
Life won’t you please go easy on me, go easy on me
Life won’t you please go easy on me
Won’t you please go easy on me and my baby

Minefields

Don’t say that I’ve changed
It’s all relative now
I’ve been on a journey long
With no real end in site
I may only remember the times that were bad
My mind has grown limber from the minefields withstand
But I don’t think I can do this again
Time goes by, they say it flies
But here time is standing still
I don’t know when my journey ends
But there’s no real end in site
I may only remember the times that were bad
My mind has grown limber from the minefields withstand
But I don’t think I can do this again
I’ll see a glimmer of hope sometimes
It makes me believe that time might heal everything I feel
I may only remember the times that were bad
My mind has grown limber from the minefields withstand
But I don’t think I can do this again
No, I don’t think I can do this again

Sometimes
02:59
|

|
You’ve been weary, your eyes look teary
Tell me what’s on your mind
It’s just a season, don’t mean this feeling
Isn’t eating you inside
Sometimes we don’t know
Where the love’s supposed to go
But keep your light a-burning for me
You used to be tender, but you’ve been weathered
You wonder if your heart’s still the same
Brighter days, are beyond this haze
And you’ll feel that sunshine again
Sometimes we don’t know
Where the love’s supposed to go
Keep your light a-burning for me
Sometimes we don’t know
Where the love’s gonna grow
Open up your heart and sing with me
Sometimes we don’t know
Where the love’s supposed to go
Keep your light a-burning for me
Sometimes we don’t know
Where the love’s gonna grow
Open up your heart and sing with me
