You're soft and sweet, fine and mine as we share this bottle of wine Kissed my neck 3 times on the playground you drive me wild When we touch, sparks fly and when we catch eyes, the world spins on by and we're in still frame If you're love was an arrow, My heart would be bleeding If my love was a sparrow, this song's what I'd be singing at the crack of dawn Cause I'm in love with you, You're in love with me, We can't help the way we feel so hold tight as we drift out to sea You're soft and sweet, fine and mine as we drive through the snow all night Made love off the highway as the snowflakes fluttered on by When we talk we don't lie and when we do lie our bodies collide with passion and art If my love was the sunshine you'd burning white if your love was the moonshine I'd be bright tonight as our bodies collide I'm in love with you You're in love with me We can't help the way we feel So hold on tight as we drift out to sea You're afraid cause I don't understand your life and I'm afraid cause I almost had a wife and I don't understand why we feel the way we do but we're in love and that's the truth I'm in love with you You're in love with me We can't help the way we feel So hold on tight as we drift out to sea.

I'm lonely in this room so damn lonely without you and I'm afraid that this wont go away yeah, I'm afraid of that And this came upon me like a rogue wave comes upon a ship latches on and overtakes it To the bottom of the ocean I thought I was over you but you came back with a vengeance so what do I do I sing It's all I know how to do It's a way to cope I guess It's a way to feel this through Its a way, to say, that I might miss you This is how I feel today tonight This is how i feel today tonight I'm missin you, just you I don't need nothin else but you I tried to be with somebody else but every time I kissed her I'd think about you - you and not just the little things but everything and about you - you And I didn't know if that meant that I missed you or if I just couldn't get my mind out of you but either way, either way, either way This is how I feel today tonight This is how I feel today tonight I'm missin you, just you I don't need nothin else but you But you, but you, but you yeah, but you, but you, but you but you, but you, but you but you, but you, but you but you, but you, but you

So many memories that he forgets some of them are intentional there are many things that he regrets It's always the little things that are left behind they find a quiet place in the back part of his mind But some things he remembers and he'll never forget like the way she smiled, and especially the way she kissed Because she was his bright side of the rainbow on a starlit sky the dark side of the moon was shining in her eye and he saw that sunshine the day he almost kissed her and the next day when she went in for it he said to himself "why sure" and now everything he knows, it's nothing but grand cause he's got this green eyed girl in the palm of his hand and she calls him a charmer when he says she's got these pretty eyes and he stole her heart away - what a surprise - yeah Rainbow surprise So many good times, that he's been through tried to take advantage of that when he still had the courage to do what he wanted to but he got feeling troubled, looked up into the sky, heard a voice that said, "Son dry your eye" Because it gets better as you go along don't you give till you listen to my song and he sang there's a - Bright side of the rainbow just beyond the cloud the dark side of the moon will be shining real proud and you can find that sunshine, its hiding out there just open up your heart take a breath of that honest air Now he's a daddy with a little girl trying to raise her the best he can treating her like a divers pearl and sometimes its challenging as we all know but its them challenges that make love grow and he reads her a story as she struggles to read along and right before she's giving up he says honey listen my song and he sang, your my Your my bright side of the rainbow on a starlit sky the dark side of the moon is shining in your eye and I saw that sunshine the day I saw your face tears started rolling down as momma said, "That's our baby, grace" and now everything he knows, it's nothing but grand cause he's got this green eyed girl, tugging on his hand and she calls him a charmer when he says she's got these pretty eyes her momma's eyes Oh, she stole his heart away and that was quite the surprise Rainbow suprise

She Knew 02:46
She'd wake up crying and I'd be there lying telling her that we fine that things were fine vivid dreams of broken hear-ted screams tearing out her seams and I would hold her so tight try to calm her fright But she knew, she knew, she knew all along she knew, she knew, she knew That I was a damn good liar Damn good liar Damn good liar Damn good liar She was always dreaming that things were all wrong and I'd be there singing our song knowing full well that things weren't right I'd look her in the eye and tell her I loved her more than life But she knew, she knew, she knew all along she knew, she knew, she knew That I was a damn good liar Damn good liar Damn good liar Damn good liar When I told her her welled up and they closed she cried from her head down to her toes Tried to tell her I was sorry and I loved her so but the funny thing is is that a woman always knows And she knew, yeah, she knew, she knew all along she knew, she knew, she knew That I was a damn good liar Damn good liar Damn good liar Damn good liar

Night Dance 03:35
Watch the nightlife come alive as the leaves from the trees pass on by Feel the leaves in your eyelashes blowing sewing up, the wounds of the day Most days I just want romance Baby, there's got to be another way. We could spread out on a sea of blankets holding each other so tight and we would wake up the very next morning where nothing in the world would be right or we could stay here under starlit lanterns and watch pale moon light arrive crickets in tuxedos play violins as the fireflies float on by And the summer wind will take you down a path that will make you wish the night will never fade and over the hill you green grass glade where you can stroll with miss daisy and on the way you'll find miss tulip lying lazy under a willow tree here's a proposition, wont you listen We could spread out on a sea of blankets holding each other so tight and we would wake up the very next morning where nothing in the world would be right or we could stay here under starlit lanterns and watch pale moon light arrive crickets in tuxedos play violins as the fireflies float on by Now you're rolling your eyes What a suprise

The dawn breaks and by perfect dreams shake sunbeams scatter up my visions Just before I finally awake I've forgotten that you're gone and you're holding Lucas Blake in our Perfect white picket life our perfect white picket life and you're still my girl and you're still next to me and you're still in this house and I didn't make you leave But I open up my cloudy eyes and it's not that you're gone that surprised me but I'd forgotten that you'd left at all and I was expecting you to be there on my left side and I was expecting you to be under my right thigh and I'd forgot that last night, you said goodbye and you left and you're not my girl and you're not next to me and you're not in this house cause I made you leave and you're gone and all of the sudden you're screaming again and all of the sudden you're crying again and your brother is pushing me out the door again and I'm reliving every second and i'm realizing you're not here again and i'm realizing you're not even near me again and I'm reliving every second and I'm bawling my eyes out in the car again and I'm reliving every second and I'm trying to smoke through the beers again and I'm trying to drink through the tears again but I'm reliving every second yeah I'm reliving every second That you're not my girl That you're not next to me That you're not in this house Cause I made you leave No you're not my girl and you're not next to me and you're not in this house Cause I made you leave And you're gone

I guess we won't be making dinner Say goodbye to Dashboard and naked apron dreams throw away the candles and angel hair pasta and pour the red wine down the drain I guess we won't be making dinner won't have to fake I like your soy cheese no more mango pasta desserts no more spilling red wine on the sheets I miss the years we walked together Mile after mile I miss the years we could have laughed together if I hadn't broken your babycake smile I miss the way you gazed at me in the Dashboard candlelight glow I miss the way you covered our blanket with our best Merlot I guess we won't be making dinner won't have to worry about that diamond ring going down the drain cause its right here on the mantle I don't have the heart to sell it back And I've left that ring on the mantle every day since you've been gone cause I've been afraid that it would freeze my heart without your left finger keeping it warm and it's reminding me that what made you leave was my infidelity I miss the years we walked together Mile after mile I miss the years we could have laughed together if I hadn't broken your babycake smile I miss the way you gazed at me in the Dashboard candlelight glow I miss the way you covered our blanket with our best Merlot I miss the way you covered our blanket with our best Merlot I miss the way you covered our blanket
