Honey I know you tried
When you loved me tonight
But the memory slipped from your lips
So if she's on your mind
That much of the time
There ain't no future in this

There was somebody who
Took a whole lot of you
And I guess you're not over it yet
If I'm just
Standing in for a memory then
There ain't no future in this

Cause mine are the arms that hold you
Hers are the arms you miss
So if she's still the one
When it's all said and done
There ain't no future in this

So if she's still the one
When it's all said and done
There ain't no future in this

. . .


The whole night in the kitchen
Saying words we'll both regret
And you scream you we're leaving
And you cursed the day we met

The sound goes above the slamming door
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
So loud it made us stop
It was the sound of a teardrop

Chorus:
When I heard her crying
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her crying

Well I'd have given anything
For time to erase
When I turned around and saw
Those little tears roll down her face

Oh my heart nearly broke in two
When she said
Mommy what did I do
To make you and daddy mad
Oh I'm sorry I was bad

I looked at you and you looked at me
And we felt each other's shame
Kneeling down to hold our child
Said she was not to blame
Now sometimes when we're angry
And say things that aren't true
We still love each other
And baby we love you

Repeat Chorus


. . .


Cool breeze on the river
Ripples to the shore
Wash away my troubles
To the sea forever more
Wind and willows whisper
Sadness is the sound
Tell the tale of my wants
Happy world that’s falling down
Old man I might be going where you’re bound

Chorus:
Old man river
I’ve come to talk again
Yes I know you’re tired
Cause your journey never ends
He’s just like you
He’s moving all the time
And I think he’s moving me out of his mind

I want to travel with you
In your deep and nimble soul
That’s the only way to make it
Peaceful like before

We used to touch at midnight
But now I feel he’s gone
Even though he’s lying next to me I feel alone
Oh man it looks like I’m to travel alone

Repeat chorus x2

. . .


Now I know what you need
And you know what I need
The whole dang block knows this whole house needs
A love revival,love revival up in here
Now I know I'm preaching
'Cause I'm certainly not leaving
But it's time to get excited and the neighbors aren't invited
To this love revival,love revival up in here
So sit up and listen,boy
'Cause I'm tired of being nice
Now momma's gonna tell you what she needs tonight

Revival,revival
Well,give me something soulful
Honey,all I need are your two arms around me again
So,if you're in this till the end
Then let the love revival begin

I feel the spirit the spirit's moving
I feel the spirit moving

So,I pray you won't deny me
Now that I've said my peace
And I'll say it again,son
Just in case you were asleep
I want a love revival,love revival up in here
'Cause I know what you need
And you know what I need
The whole dang block knows the whole house needs
A love revival,love revival up in here
So sit up and listen,boy 'cause I'm tired of being' nice
Now momma's gonna tell you what she needs tonight

Revival,revival
Well,give me something soulful
Honey,all I need are your two arms around me again
So,if you're in this till the end
Then let the love revival begin

Well,we're both in this till the end
So let the love revival begin

I feel the spirit,the spirit's moving
I feel the spirit,the spirit's moving
I feel the spirit,the spirit's moving
I feel the spirit,the spirit's moving

Revival,revival
Well,give me something soulful
Honey,all I need are your two arms around me again
So,if you're in this till the end
Then let the love revival begin

Revival,revival
Well,give me something soulful
Honey,all I need are your two arms around me again
So,if you're in this till the end
Then let the love revival begin

Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good ol' Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho ho, who wouldn't know
Ho, ho ho, who wouldn't go

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't know
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Also a ball and a whip that cracks (ka-pow, ka-pow)
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't know
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

I thought love was meant to last forever
Isn't that how love's supposed to be
Now it seems the good times are all over
It's so funny I guess the joke's on me

Every day I sit alone and wonder
Why I fell in love so easily
And then woke up to find that all he left behind
Are tattered dreams and broken pieces in my memory

So tell me what's so good about goodbye
What's so good about watching good love die
He's the kind you can't forget
So I won't even try
Tell me what's so good
I gave him all I could
Tell me what's so good about goodbye

I don't think I'll ever love another
I didn't know that goodbye could hurt so bad
I know I'll always find he's somewhere in my mind
Still believe the worst of him's the best I'll ever have

Repeat Chorus

. . .


You ain't done nothing wrong, but I think we need to talk
You might be the one, but before we go too far
I need a little time to figure out my heart
Who could ask for more, but I need to know for sure
I haven't been myself from the minute that we met
I ran into your world and kinda walked out on myself
All those dreams I had, I began to second guess for you
One too many questions until I know the truth

Chorus:
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe

I know you're not to blame, and I swear there's no one new
This has to do with me and not a thing to do with you
So don't try to understand, you don't have a thing to prove to me
If you really love me, just give me what I need

Chorus:
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe

Please don't take this wrong
Please don't turn away
I just don't want to look back one day and say

Chorus:
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe

. . .


(Reba)
Looking back over the years
Of all the things I've always meant to say
But the words didn't come easily
So many times through empty fears
Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone
So scared of who might be answering

You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away

(Both)
'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know, I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside
A foolish disguise?
(Reba) The heart won't lie

(Vince)
Long after tonight
Will you still hear my voice through the radio
Old desires make us act carelessly
Long after tonight, after the fire
After the scattered ashes fly
Through the four winds blown and gone
Will you come back to me?

You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away

(Both)
'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know, I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside
A foolish disguise?
(Vince) The heart won't lie

(Reba)
The heart won't lie

The Stairs

She looks at the clock-It’s quarter past nine
She hears his car as it pulls in the drive
Dinner’s been waiting from hours before
She knows he’s been drinking when he walks in the door
In anger he strikes out and she starts to cry
How much more can she take? How much more can she lie?

And she fell down the stairs again
But it hasn’t happened since she don’t know when
Was it in spring when she packed up the kids?
Maybe in winter with his job on the skids
Oh, but just like before she’ll have to pretend
That she fell down the stairs again

A short time ago she started a job
Serving chicken fried steak and corn on the cob
She started out shy but she ended up sure
That a ticket to anywhere could be the cure
But he couldn’t handle the change for the better
She tried to leave him, but he wouldn’t let her

He says he’s sorry, he didn’t mean it
He swears it won’t happen again
But she’s so confused she wants to believe him
She just wants this nightmare to end

And she fell down the stairs again
But it hasn’t happened since she don’t know when
Was it in spring when she packed up the kids?
Maybe in winter with his job on the skids
Oh, but just like before she’ll have to pretend
That she fell down the stairs again

Just like before she’ll have to pretend
That she fell down the stairs again

. . .


Peaceful valleys
mountain tops
no dark alleys
or sudden stops
this is my prayer
this is my prayer for you

Love is calling
starry skies
always falling
but not for lies
this is my prayer
this is my prayer for you

May all your sweet dreams go unbroken
May every wish you've ever spoken
come true
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you

celebrations
true blue friends
revelations
and a heart thatn't ends
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you

May all your sweet dreams go unbroken
May every wish you've ever spoken
come true
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you

Arms that welcome
Doors open wide
All your loved ones
Gathered by your side
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you

May all yours days be filled with laughter
May all your prayers be quickly answered
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you

This is my prayer
This is my prayer for you
