Альбом Chely Wright

(Mark Irwin, Alan Jackson)

I tried my hand at the game enough
But I ain't lucky when it comes to love
I want it all but I never wanna wait
You ain't like the ones I've known before
You stir up feelings that I can't ignore
This heart of mine finally understands

And baby, I've been held and I've been tied down
I've been wrapped and I've been unwound
I've been kissed oh
But I ain't never been loved
Till I was loved by you

Now people told me that I was wrong
But I knew love was a sweeter song
I kept waiting for the perfect melody
Now in your arms it's plain as day
Knowing you was worth the wait
Come say you'll never give up on me

And baby, I've been held and I've been tied down
I've been wrapped and I've been unwound
I've been kissed oh
But I ain't never been loved
Till I was loved by you

And baby, I've been held and I've been tied down
I've been wrapped and I've been unwound
I've been kissed oh
But I ain't never been loved
Till I was loved by you

Till I was loved by you
Till I was loved by you

(Chely Wright, Dale Dodson, Jimmy Melton)

I've been out here seven dances in a row
Yeah the band's so hot they won't play nothin' slow
Stetsons and Wrangler jears are floodin' through the door
And it's sink or swim as soon as you hit the floor

I'm dancin' in a sea of cowboy hats
Shoulder to shoulder and back to back
Two steppin' fools as far as the eye can see
They're ridin' the wave on that sawdust floor
Rockin' the boat from shore to shore
So jump right in cause this is where it's at in the sea of cowboy hats

Feel free to scrape your boots til they've worn holes
You won't get too far in here with rubber soles
Yeah the place is packed and we're puttin' on a show
In over our heads and caught up in the flow

I'm dancin' in a sea of cowboy hats
Shoulder to shoulder and back to back
Two steppin' fools as far as the eye can see
They're ridin' the wave on that sawdust floor
Rockin' the boat from shore to shore
So jump right in cause this is where it's at in the sea of cowboy hats

I'm dancin' in a sea of cowboy hats
Shoulder to shoulder and back to back
Two steppin' fools as far as the eye can see
They're ridin' the wave on that sawdust floor
Rockin' the boat from shore to shore

He wears a Harley Jacket and a kiss me smile.
Through his steel blue eyes I can see for miles.
He digs big band music and the Rolling Stones.
But we listen country when were all alone.
'Cause it makes me crazy.
It drives me wild.
I like my lovin' country style.

Chorus:

Well, were listenin' to the radio.
Flyin' down the highway.
Feelin' like outlaws.
Wind's goin our way.
Sittin' right beside him.
Hell-bent, holdin' on.
Flippin' through the stations.
Lookin' for a fast song.
Singin' along with the ones we know.
Listenin' to the radio.

Well, we stop for gas, but not for long.
'Cause that Philco radio keeps us movin' along.
He floors that '66 Mustang, rag top 289.
While I blow him kisses from the passenger side.
'Cause it makes him crazy.
It drives him wild.
He likes his lovin' country style

Chorus

I slide on over when the song slows down.
I give him all my love to throw his arms around.
We're so in love we never touch the ground.
Blastin' through the wind in a wall of sound.

(Written by Sam Tate, Annie Tate, Rivers Ruterford)

Shut up and drive
You don't know what you're talking about
He's not the one
You ought to know that by now
You've got one of those hearts
That keeps changing your mind
Your heart has a way of making you stay
So shut up and drive

Don't look in the mirror
He might have that look in his eyes
The one thats so strong
It strangles your will to survive
He's mastered the art
Of looking sincere
His eyes have a way of making you stay
Don't look in the mirror

Chorus:

I'm the voice you never listen to
And I had to break your heart to make you see
That he's the one who will be missing you
And you'll only miss the man
That you wanted him to be

Turn the radio on
To drown out the sound of goodbye
Blink back the tears
Show me you've still got your pride
Just get yourself lost
In a sad country song
Those guys that they play
Know just what to say
Turn the radio on.

Chorus

Shut up and drive
Don't look in the mirror
Turn the radio on
Get out of here
Shut up and drive
Shut up and drive

(Written by Gary Burr, Chely Wright)

Cautions in the wind
The hardest part is through
You don't have to try so hard
To make me fall for you

I've surprised myself
With what I've gone and done
Just today I heard myself
Swear you were the one

Chorus:

Laugh I just have to laugh
I really thought you knew
I can't believe
That your asking me
When I will love you
I already do
I already do

You've been doing fine
Please don't change a thing
It's too good to hide away
So i might as well come clean

I didn't shout it out
But everybody knew
Funny you're the only one who didn't have a clue

Chorus

I gave you my heart
Can't you feel the power
You want to see the light
Baby the sun's been up for hours

(Written by Ed Hill, Mark D. Sanders)

I'm fallin' head over heals for him
He's callin' me twice a night then callin' again
When I talk he likes to listen
He says I'm the one that he's been missin'
Somebody tell me that he isn't

Chorus:

Just another heartache
Just another heartache
Another bad lie another goodbye
Lookin' for another heart to break

Maybe I'm too cautious for my own good
Maybe he's the real deal knock on wood
All I know is he'll be here in a minute
I hope he's love and I hope he's in it
I'll be over my limit with

Chorus

This better be somethin' more
I wanna be sure that I'm not fallin'
I'm not fallin' for

Just another heartache
Just another heartache
Another bad lie another goodbye lookin' for a
Just another heartache just another heartache
Another bad lie another goodbye lookin' for another heart
Another bad lie another goodbye lookin' for another

I know that every morning you go thumbing
Through the personal want ads
You grab the latest copy, a cup of coffee
And settle in for a good laugh
I've been trying to catch your eye but I'm so shy
I'm hoping and praying that
Today's edition is gonna catch your attention
'Cause there's a

Chorus:

Single white female
Looking for that special lover
To put it in a nutshell
A one women man who doesn't want no other
Oh, you never can tell
She just might be your dream come true
A single white female
Is looking for a man like you

Yeah, I'm a little nervous I'm not sure if I shoulda put it in writing
It might have been a little reckless, a little desperate
But I think I did the right thing
I couldn't go on living keep it hidden
So I'm telling you everything
It's my confession I hope you get the message
There's a

Repeat chorus

It's my confession I hope you get the message

Repeat chorus

Looking for a man like you

(Written by Ronnie Guilbeau/John McElroy)

He was glued to the T.V.
When she asked him for the keys
Said, "I'm going to the market
Is there anything you need?"
The first quarter was underway
He never missed a play

She pulled out of the driveway
Took a left at the light
Didn't stop at the market
She just drove right on by
Across the railroad tracks
She never once looked back

Chorus:

She went out for cigarettes
And just kept driving on
He didn't even know it yet
Bur she's gone
As far away as she can get
Passed the point of no regret
She went out for cigarettes
And just kept driving on

Half time is over
The sun is sinking low
It's almost time for supper
But there is nothing on the stove
He looks up from his easy chair
He just noticed she's not there

She made a stop at the bank
Took out some cash
Now she's racing down the highway
On a full tank of gas
As fast as she can go
To where she does not know

Repeat Chorus

She went out for cigarettes

(Written by Gary Burr/Mark Wright)

I guess we guess are way through life
How many times do we really know for sure?
I was just hoping for the best
Then I woke up in these lovin' arms of yours
What I felt was unmistakable
When I fell for you

Chorus:

It was real...It was magic
It was calm...It was savage
It was cool as a breeze
It was warm to the touch
It was never enough
It was always too much
It did all the things love does
That's how I knew
It was

Who thought that I could laugh so loud
Then turn around and cry so many tears
I used to have so many doubts
But one by one you made them disappear
What I found was unbelievable
But I believe it's true

Repeat Chorus

You asked what I felt when you walked through the door
Was it fear?
Was it clear?
It was all that and more

Repeat chorus
That's how I knew

(Written by Gary Burr/Monty Powell)

Going through old dresser drawers
Fumbling through there closets
It's got to be here somewhere
I know it's round here somewhere

Searching from room to room
We couldn't have just lost it
I know it's round here somewhere
It's got to be here somewhere

Maybe we packed it up
With college books and winter clothes
Things we thought were in the way
Out of style or just outgrown

Chorus:
We didn't give it away
We just left it alone
We tried to find it one day
That's when we noticed it gone
I turned the house upside down
Praying I'd stumble across
Some sign thats it's still around
Got to find the love that we lost

Captured in old picture frames
Shinning in those faces
It used to be here somewhere
I know it's still here somewhere
Reflected in our children's eyes
How could we misplace it
I know it was here yesterday
How could it just slip away
it was more then just a box of junk
We stored away to gather dust
This was a dream we thought
We always could reach out and touch

(Repeat Chorus twice)

(Written by Brett James/Angelo)

If all of my life I try and I try
Baby I could never show you
All this love I have inside
'Cause every day when we wake
I look deep into your eyes I realize

Chorus:

I could kiss you in the rain forever
Turn all of your pain to pleasure
Fill up all your days with sunlight
Make the passion last every night
Give you my every possession
Make you my only obsession
Climb up to the sky and pull down all the stars above
But I could never love you enough

If I could have one wish it would just be this
That I could take you to my soul
And show you all the love there is
This never ending sea deep inside of me
There's no stopping it baby even if

Chorus

No matter what I do
It's never as much as I want to
Baby it could never be enough

(Written by Marcus Hummon/Jay Demarcus)

I give him love the best I can
But you don't seem to understand
It's not always deep
But it's always true
And he does not belong to you

Hey I do not forgive and I do not forget
I will fight for love until the death

Chorus:

Jezebel, save your charms
He'll be back here in my arms
Oh how quickly you forget
He is not yours yet
He is not yours not yet

Gonna throw on this cotton dress
Put lilac scent on the back of my neck
Walk barefoot down that mountainside
Straight to your door girl you can't hide

'Cause I do not forgive and I do not forget
I will fight for love until the death

Chorus

Standing out in the pourin' rain
Callin' out my lover's name
I know he won't leave me in the cold
Send my baby home
Send my baby home
