Chorus:
You're right, I'm wrong
I'm here, you're gone
Now I'm the one to blame
That our loves at an end
I lied, you cried
I died inside
Now I'll do anything
To get you back again

Step by step, night after night
I walk the floor till morning light
Your leaving words still haunt my mind
Cause I'm the fool who made you say goodbye

Chorus

Day by day, time after time
I did not see the warning signs
Now my beating heart keeps telling me
It hurts to know that I caused you to leave

Chorus

Yes I'll do anything to get you back again

. . .



There are people who don't know me
Who must think I've got it made
From all outward appearances
I guess it looks that way
I've got good friends and family
They let me know they care
I got a job to keep me going
And a car to get me there

I'm holding my own
But I'd rather be holding you
I can make it alone
But not like I made it with you
Without you here
This house just aint no home
How long can I go on holding my own

There's brand new show that's playing
At the movies down the street
I'll probably go there after work
Then stop somewhere to eat
I've got cable on my TV
And I'll leave her on all night
While I dose off to sleep
And dream that I'm alright

I'm holding my own
But I'd rather be holding you
I can make it alone
But not like I made it with you
Without you here
This house just aint no home
How long can I go on holding my own

How long can I go on holding my own

. . .



Well I haven't seen her lately
And she never calls
She don't ask my friends about me
Gives no clues at all
That a fire might still be burnin', yeah
I'd say she's about as gone as a girl can get

She don't even show up in my dreams at night
But my stubborn old memory keeps holdin' on tight
Sure makes it hard to forget
She's about as gone as a girl can get

Chorus:
She's out of here
She disappeared without a trace
More or less unimpressed
By the tears on my face
Destination unknown
She just dropped out of sight
Last seen headin' right on out of my life
Like a stranger I ain't never met
She's about as gone as a girl can get

Repeat chorus

Like a stranger I ain't never met
Well I'd say she's about as gone as a girl can get

. . .



I know that I surprised you comin' home
It's not my usual time of year
But I've got myself a problem
And I know that I might find the answer here
Remember when I was dad's pride and joy
And your little man
Every time that I got hurt
You were there to give a hand
You'd pick me up and you'd kiss my hurt away
Remember what you'd say
"Boy, you're gettin' more like him each and everyday"
Can we have a talk like it was yesterday
Your boy's back in trouble and he needs you right away

She said she's gonna leave me momma
Nothing on God's green earth will make her stay
I can't live with out her momma
But this time you can't kiss the hurt away
But if I'm so much like my dad
There must've been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay

She said she's gonna leave me momma
But if I'm so much like my dad
There must've been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay

Is it already time

. . .



I was 5 years old
when Daddy started packing
And I stood there by my momma
as she cried
And the next thing that we knew
some old train came passing through
and Daddy got on board
and we ain't seen him no more

Chorus:

I wonder why trains make me lonesome
It happens everytime that engine moans some
And when I hear that whistle blow
It makes my heart sink low
And I wonder why trains make me lonesome


It was a cold dark night
when I drove her to the depot
There were tears in my eyes
and a ticket in her hand
And as we stood there by those tracks
I knew she wasn't coming back
So I turned and walked away
but I still miss her today

Chorus:

Those ink spots look engine No. 9
And this couch on which I lay
Suppose to haul my blues away
That old pipe you keep toking
Is like an old cold engine smoking

Chorus

. . .



All of me loves all of you.
Every part of me, down to the heart of me
Loves you through and through.
Now wanting you is all I do.
All of me loves all of you.

Oh I have heard those tender words,
But my heart wasn't listening.
Till I found you I never knew
Just what I was missing.

I have heard those tender words,
But my heart wasn't listening.
Till I found you I never knew
Just what I was missing.

All of me loves all of you.
Every part of me down to the heart of me
Loves you through and through.
Now wanting you is all I do.
All of me loves all of you.
All of me loves all of you.

. . .



What kind of world would it be
For you without me
Would you think it a better world
Or would you be lonely
And if your love for me shall die
Would you even say good bye
Or would you just walk away
Into the dark of night

Sometimes I need insurance of your love
For you soft and gentle touch
All the kings are worthy none
And at these times you take me by the hand
And like a child you lead me through
A wonderland of love

Like I can't visualize
Without you by my side
Life would be meaningless
Like some of those sky's
Thou you show me everyday
Your love in every way
I'm afraid it's all a dream
That'll favor your way

Wonderland of love

. . .



Not so very long from now
She'll be known all over town
Cause she waits by her phone from in the car
She says the limit is the sky
And tonight she's flyin' high
But I'll hang around and take her faults and all

O' Yes she once was mine
Now she's changed and she's that kind
With a crowd she has her self a ball
But she's not that kind of girl
She's just hidin' from the world
But I'll hang around and take her faults and all

She's about as low as a girl can go
She ain't got far to fall
But when she hits the ground
I'm gonna be around
'Cause I want her most of all
And when all's been said and done
I'm gonna be the one
Who'll hang around and take her faults and all

Yeah I'll hang around and take her faults and all

. . .



It's alright with me
If it's alright with you
It's alright I know
Your love will see me through
When the car won't start
The rain won't stop
And all of the bills are due
It's alright with me
If it's alright with you

Well the boss man rides me all week long
And it's all that I can take
I work each day till' the sun is gone
And no time for a break
But when I get home you rub my back
And tell me I'm your man
With a little love I get back on track
And do it all over agian

It's alright with me
If it's alright with you
It's alright I know
Your love will see me through
When the car won't start
The rain won't stop
And all of the bills are due
It's alright with me
If it's alright with you

No matter what life throws at me
I've got the upper hand
'Cause nothin' else can set me free
The way your lovin' can
If I lived in the shack out in the woods
And never see me blue
I just throw another log in the old wood stove
And make sweet love to you

It's alright with me
If it's alright with you
It's alright I know
Your love will see me through
When the car won't start
The rain won't stop
And all of the bills are due
It's alright with me
If it's alright with you

. . .



Here we go again
she's back in town again
I'll take her back again
one more time
Here we go again
the phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again
one more time.

Chorus:
I've been there before
and I'll try it again
But any fool knows
that there's no way to win
Here we go again
she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again
one more time.

Repeat Chorus:

I'll take her back again
just one more time.
