I keep thinkin' any minute you'll be comin' home honey
I aint seen nothin' of you in a month of Sundays
Tell me how long gone are you gonna be
All you said was you had to get goin'
Oh but baby I wouldnt mind knowin' just
How long gone are you gonna be
How am I supposed to make any plans
When I still dont even understand
If you're ever gonna come back home to me
How long gone are you gonna be
Maybe I didnt pay enough attention
But I do believe you forgot to mention
Just how long gone are you gonna be
The phone aint ringin', cause you still aint callin'
I aint been hearin' your footsteps fallin'
Tell me how long gone are you gonna be
How am I supposed to make any plans
When I still dont even understand
If you're ever gonna come back home to me
Tell me please
. . .

I forget where I'm goin' in my own house
I got myself in this, I'll get myself out
I talk out loud, at the top of my voice I sing
Whoa keep the faith, see what tomorrow brings
I can't get over you
Try as I may oh it no use
My heart just cant leave you alone
My mind wont believe you're gone
I can't get over you
I got a front row seat here to a fool's masquerade
And that fool in the mirror keeps sayin' I'm doin' ok
I stare at that door that you walked out
It hits me hard and leaves no doubt
I can't get over you
Try as I may oh it no use
My heart just cant leave you alone
My mind wont believe you're gone
I can't get over you
I can't get over you
Try as I may oh it no use
My heart just cant leave you alone
My mind wont believe you're gone

Where the rain dont fall and the grass dont grow
The older part of New Mexico
I drifted into town one day
And stumbled in on a lost cafe
Shades were pulled and the door was locked
Something made me knock
Time stood still when she opened the door
I didnt know where I was anymore
And we were lost in each other's eyes
Where loneliness meets paradise
Something in my heart broke free
Blowing wind as the tumbleweed
Somewhere north of heaven
Where eagles fear to fly
Where the sun burns hot as the devil's gate
The desert meets the sky
Tattooed on my memory is the image of an angels face
North of heaven, south of Santa Fe
Bad news tends to travel fast
I was running from my past
I left her when ther morning broke
Truth is I never let her go
I'm still running free
But in my heart I'll always be
Somewhere north of heaven
Where eagles fear to fly
Where the sun burns hot as the devil's gate
The desert meets the sky
Tattooed on my memory is the image of an angels face
North of heaven, south of Santa Fe
North of heaven, south of Santa Fe

If you see him
Tell him I wish him well
How am I doing?
Well, sometimes is hard to tell
I still miss him more than ever
But please dont say a word
If you see him
If you see him
If you see her
Tell her I'm doing fine
And if you want to
Say that I think of her from time to time
Ask her if she ever wonders
Where we both went wrong
If you see her
If you see her
I still want her
I still need him so
I dont know why we let each other go
If you see her
Tell her the lights still on for her
Nothing's changed
Deep down the fire still burns for him
And even if it takes forever say I'll still be here
If you see him
If you see her
If you see him
If you see her

Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey
And give it a woman's name
A man needs something to hold onto
When a goodbye hits him like a hurricane
Make it sweet, as sweet as her lips
Something special like champagne
Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey
And give it a woman's name
Leaving's the reason I'm drinking
Oh I've never felt so alone
Night and day I stay stoned
Hoping to forget she's gone
I never thought she'd do me so dirty
Together forever she promised me
She took her promise and left a memory
The day the woman walked out on me
Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey
And give it a woman's name
A man needs something to hold onto
When a goodbye hits him like a hurricane
Make it sweet, as sweet as her lips
Something special like champagne
Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey
And give it a woman's name
Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey
And give it a woman's name
A man needs something to hold onto
When a goodbye hits him like a hurricane
Make it sweet, as sweet as her lips
Something special like champagne
Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey
And give it a woman's name
Yeah they oughta make a brand new whiskey

The wind blows hard across the Texas plains
Makes some people go insane
While others quietly pray for rain
That's where we came from
Two boys playing in the burning sun
One with books and one with guns
Mama calls but just one comes
The other one runs
With a Christian sense of wrong and right
We were born and raised in black and white
One learned to pray, one learned to fight
We were born and raised in black and white
My brother took to the gospel road
Spent his whole life saving souls
When he looked at me and his look ran cold
He didn't even try
I had no dreams and I had no plans
But a gun felt good in my right hand
Warden said 'How come you killed that man?'
I said 'I don't know why'
Welcome home said the hot moonlight
We were born and raised in black and white
One lives to pray, one wants to die
We were born and raised in black and white
We were born and raised in black and white
Someone handed me a cigarette
They offered me my last request
I asked my moral soul be blessed
By someone close to me
I came to him with trembling hands
I swore I'd never understand
He said its just what life had planned
It's destiny
So don't waste your tears on me tonight
We were born and raised in black and white
You chose the dark, I chase the light
We were born and raised in black and white
We were born and raised in black and white
The wind blows hard across the Texas plains
Makes some people go insane

I get down with music and guitars
I fool around with all kinds of fast cars
It takes you baby to keep my motor running
I smoke the tires and watch the rubber burn
It takes your fire to make my wheels turn
Make my blood run hot and keeps my heart a humming
But you're love don't take a backseat to nothing
Temptation always knocking
Get three behind me 'cause I ain't stopping
Baby you're all I need and whole lot more
Rockin' and rollin' out here on the fast lane
It can get crazy, downright insane
Burning down the highway to your front door
But you're love don't take a backseat to nothing
My baby's really something
She keeps my motor running
Her love don't take a backseat
Temptation always knocking
Get three behind me 'cause I ain't stopping
Baby you're all I need and whole lot more
. . .

Two broken hearts lonely looking houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives
A woman and a man
A man and a woman
Some can and some cant and some cant
Two broken hearts lonely looking houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives
It's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline

Way gone for my sweet baby
So strong and I don't mean maybe
If I'm wrong then I don't know nothing
'Cause I'm way gone for her sweet loving
Way gone she's my one and only
So long to sad and lonely
She waltzed into my world
Now I'm way gone for my sweet girl
Oh if I'm half the man
My sweet baby thinks I am
I guess I better pack my bags
'Cause I don't plan on coming back
Way gone and I've crossed over
I'm lucky as a four leaf clover
I don't want nobody to save me
'Cause I way gone for my sweet baby
Oh if I'm half the man
My sweet baby thinks I am
I guess I better pack my bags
'Cause I don't plan on coming back
Way gone she's a one-way ticket
Rock on gonna get down with it
Sweet lips and brunette curls
Yes I'm way gone for my sweet girl
Way gone for my sweet baby
So strong and I don't mean maybe
If I'm wrong then I don't know nothing
'Cause I'm way gone for her sweet loving
Way gone - for my sweet baby
Way gone - and I don't mean maybe
Rock on - Time to get down with it

Love conquers all and someday it'll conquer you
There's nothing finer than falling all in it
When love is true
But once it goes out and breaks your heart
It still ain't history
When love dies it don't rest in peace
You can lock your doors and windows
To keep the pain at bay
Yesterday may be dead and gone
But the past wont go away
Its waiting right around every corner
With a heartache you don't need
When love dies it don't rest in peace
Oh when love dies
You cant bury those memories
Oh when love dies
It disappears but it never leaves
When love dies it don't rest in peace
How does love die then come back
A ghost rattling chains
It keeps on haunting my broken heart
Driving me insane
I hear it whisper my name in the night
Just like it still lives and breathes
When love dies it don't rest in peace
Oh when love dies
You cant bury those memories
Oh when love dies
It disappears but it never leaves
. . .

You're my angel, you see me through
Believe in me, I'll believe in you
Oh fill my heart from your loving well
You're my angel
Pick me up when I'm feeling down
When I stumble on shaky ground
Oh you're my answer when I cant tell
You're my angel
Oh you take me up to heaven
When you spread your loving wings
When I am weary and way behind
When I am clearly out of my mind
Oh when I find I'm in my hell
You're my angel
