Альбом Sarah Buxton

I left Lawrence, Kansas,
At the age of seventeen,
To chase down my own version,
Of the American dream..
Cowboy boots, a tie-dye dress,
In Mom's ol' mini-van:
If a girl like me can do it, sister,
I believe anybody can.

Oh, the land, she is my mother;
And freedom is my father.
Yeah, and I am one of many,
Strong, proud and beautiful American daughters.

I got married way too young:
No-one's fault but mine.
An' it hurts when you grow,
But you learn as you go that nothin' heals like time.
I found my Faith in God,
An' my first apartment on my own.
An' now no matter where I ever go,
I know I'll never be alone.

'Cause the land, she is my mother;
Yes, and freedom,
(Freedom.)
Is my father.
Yeah, and I am one of many,
Strong, proud and beautiful American daughters.

Resurrection Bay, Alaska;
The Flinthills Roll in Kansa;
Time Square, New York City;
The Mississippi delta;
Anywhere in Texas;
Redstone, Colorado;
Sedona, Arizona;
The PCA to California;
It's all home sweet home.

'Cause the land, she is my mother;
Yes, and freedom,
(Freedom.)
Is my father.
Yeah, and I am one of many,
Strong, proud and beautiful;
We're all strong, proud and beautiful;
Yeah, we're strong, proud and beautiful American daughters.
Strong, proud American daughters, yeah.

Outside my window, I see a redbird singin'
Sittin' on a wire, wish I knew what he's thinkin'

Outside my window, I see a couple kissin'
Huggin' and lovin', man, that's just what I've been missin'

These days, when everything is crazy
Some things are never, ever changing

Still need stars when you're wishin' at night
A best friend to set you right
Good laugh, warm bath
And a beautiful song you can sing along to

Good news that'll make you cry
All the little things that money can't buy
No wars, no more
Just a big rainbow outside my window

La, la, la, la, la, la

Outside my window, I see the bluest ocean
Sails in the sunlight, rockin' in the sweetest motion

Outside my window, I hear a church bell ringin'
Nobody fightin' over what hymn they're singin'

I know I'm dreamin' like a child
Some things just don't go outta style, like

Still need stars when you're wishin' at night
A best friend to set you right
Good laugh, warm bath
And a beautiful song you can sing along to

Good news that'll make you cry
All the little things that money can't buy
No wars, no more
Just a big rainbow outside my window

La, la, la, la, la, la

Outside my window

Outside my window, I see a flag that's wavin'
Hands joined together, everybody's celebratin'

Yeah!

La, la, la, la, la, la
Outside my window
La, la, la, la, la, la
Everybody look outside my window

Still need stars when you're wishin' at night
A best friend to set you right
Good laugh, warm bath
And a beautiful song you can sing along to

Good news that'll make you cry
All the little things that money can't buy
No wars, no more
Just a big rainbow outside my window

La, la, la, la, la, la
Outside my window
La, la, la, la, la, la
Outside my window
La, la, la, la, la, la
Outside my window
La, la, la, la, la, la
Everybody look outside my window
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la

Louder - yeah
Louder, louder, louder, louder - yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

Can't eat
I can't sleep
I can't think
Don't wanna drink
I can't dance
You know I can't move
Alone tonight without you

I need a tune to spark my memory
And bridge the distance
Between you and me

Baby call the station
Make a dedication
I'll be tuning in through the fuzz
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
Tonight it's enough
To close my eyes and rewind
Hold you close in my mind
Let the music do what it does
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
Give me radio love
Radio love

Eight hours
Hammer down
Flying through these lonely towns
I'm on my way
So leave the light on
God, I miss you
It's been too long

I need a tune to make you feel
Like you're right here
Dial it in and make a mile disappear -
mile disappear

Baby call the station
Make a dedication
I'll be tuning in through the fuzz
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
Tonight it's enough
To close my eyes and rewind
Hold you close in my mind
Let the music do what it does
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
Give me radio love
Radio love

Radio love, radio love
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah -

Only you know the songs
To keep me rockin'
Al night long, all night long
At the top, top of my lungs

Baby call the station
Make a dedication
I'll be tuning in through the fuzz
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
Close your eyes and rewind
Hold me close in your mind
Let the music do what, do what it does
You can turn me on while you're gone
On my stereo, baby
Give me radio love
Radio love
Give me radio love
Radio love, baby
Radio love, radio love

These are the eyes I know
These are the lips I kiss
These are the hands I hold
I live for this

This is the life I want
This is my only hope
That we'll share the days together
When we grow old

I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna drift away
I don't wanna fade away
I don't wanna hide away
Not when I feel the things I feel
I don't wanna lose you babe
I don't wanna hurt you babe
I just don't wanna hear you say
That you'll never go away
That's what it's like to be in love,
for real

This is the bed we share
This is the safest place
This is where we come
To end the day

Feels like a fairy tale
Feels like a fantasy
But baby most of all
Feels like it's meant to be

I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna drift away
I don't wanna fade away
I don't wanna hide away
Not when I feel the things I feel
I don't wanna lose you babe
I don't wanna hurt you babe
I just don't wanna hear you say
That you'll never go away
That's what it's like to be in love,
for real

That's what it's like to be in love,
for real
That's what it's like to be in love,
for real
That's what it's like to be in love,
oh for real
That's what it's like to be in love,
hey, hey, yeah
That's what it's like to be in love,
for real
That's what it's like to be in love,
for real

Love can be crazy
And magical things it can do
The places that it takes you to
I never thought that it was true
Til you saw me standing
Facing the walls that can't climb
Lifting me up just in time
It's so perfect and divine

You give me wings
So I can fly at least that's how it seems
Like angels do when dancing in the dream
There's no fear or doubt
Up here in the clouds
Cuz you give me wings

I'm only human
And I do the best I can do
Sometimes I fight and I loose
When I can't pull myself through
You do

You give me wings
So I can fly at least that's how it seems
Like angels do when dancing in the dream
There's no fear or doubt
Up here in the clouds
You take me high, higher than the struggles in this life
And where I used to stumble, now I rise
Above it all, like I can never fall
Cuz you give me wings
I'm not an angel but baby understand
When I get around you, I feel like I am
I aint running any longer, your love makes me stronger
Nothing is impossible anymore, anymore

You give me wings
So I can fly at least that's how it seems
Like angels do when dancing in the dream
There's no fear or doubt
Up here in the clouds
You take me high, higher than the struggles in this life
And where I used to stumble, now I rise
Above it all, like I can never fall
Cuz you give me wings
You give me wings
You give me wings

(Verse 1)
Mama was right when she said I was somethin',
I never could quite keep my feet on the ground.
So much to say never holdin' back nothin,
My heart on my sleeve with my head in the clouds.

(Bridge 1)
I want true love,
Always have always will,
And I won't give up till I feel how it feels.

(Chorus)
I've felt the butterflies,
And had the mad crush,
I've felt the earth move,
With just a single touch,
The passion in a kiss,
But what I'm wantin is...
Sweet forgiveness,
Eternally in this,
Sacred gift were given,
A love like heaven.

I'm gonna find it.

(Verse 2)
Some people tell me I'm foolish and crazy,
It's somethin so perfect it just can't exist.
They say I've been watchin' too many movies,
These great expectations have put me at risk.

(Bridge 2)
Yeah but I know better,
Always have always will,
Call me a dreamer,
But I just feel what I feel.

(Chorus)
I've felt the butterflies,
And had the mad crush,
I've felt the earth move,
With just a single touch,
The passion in a kiss,
But what I'm wantin is...
Sweet forgiveness,
Eternally in this,
Sacred gift were given,
A love like heaven.

(Bridge 3)
So I keep my cool,
I keep my faith
I know that there's a better place
Where there's no pain and hearts don't break and forever means forever baby

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah.

(Chorus)
I've felt the butterflies,
And had the mad crush,
I've felt the earth move,
With just a single touch,
The passion in a kiss,
But what I'm wantin is...
Sweet forgiveness,
Eternally in this,
Sacred gift were given,
So surrender,
Sweet and tender
Angels wings up lifting,
A love like heaven

I'm gonna find it

A love like heaven

Mmmmmmm...

You say you want space
A little time on your own
To clear out your mind
Really unwind, and just be alone

Things are moving too fast, going too far
Getting too close, too close to the heart

And now you want space
Well I'll give you space
Plenty of space, all the space that you need

Does it make you feel free, make you feel young?
How does it feel not to need anyone?
You say you want space
Well I'll give you space

You need your own bed
You need your own room
Well how 'bout an island?
I bet you could find one
On the dark side of the moon

Then you won't have to deal with anything real
Cause I won't be here, I'll just disappear

And you can have space
Honey, I'll give you space
Plenty of space, all the space that you need

Does it make you feel free, make you feel young?
How does it feel not to need anyone?
Oh, you say you want space
Baby, you can have space
I'll give you

It's the first time that I've been here
Since I was here with him
I remember all the wild flowers
Wavin' in the wind
Life was an undiscovered river
I was jumpin' in
Head first

It was sink or swim
Do or die
Sneaking out on summer nights
Stealing wine from my pa
The thrill of not gettin' caught
And now and then
I miss those days
But coming back to this place
I realize, it ain't him I miss
It's that young girl, wide eyed,
First love, one time
Innocence
Yeah

We ran off to the cornfield
Just outside the county fair
There were butterflies in my stomach
And fireflies in the air
He tried hard not to show it
Oh, but he was just as scared
As me

And it was sink or swim
Do or die
Sneaking out on summer nights
Stealing wine from my pa
The thrill of not gettin' caught
And now and then
I miss those days
But coming back to this place
I realize, it ain't him I miss
It's that young girl, wide eyed,
First love, one time
Innocence
Yeah

And coming here
Has made me come to this
The one thing I can't get back
Is the one thing I miss
Yeah

And it was breaking rules
Flying blind
What you see through younger eyes
It wasn't what I thought it was
Man, I swore he was the one
And now and then
I miss those days
But coming back to this place
I realize, it ain't him I miss
It's that young girl, wide eyed,
First love, one time
Innocence
Yeah

It's that young girl, wide eyed,
First love, one time
Innocence
Yeah

It's that innocence
Mmmm

I stayed out about two hours too late

She was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild but innocent
Perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything, beautiful, different

Stupid boy
You can't fence that in
Stupid boy
It's like holding back the wind

[chorus]
She laid her heart
And soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream
and crushed her plans
She never knew
She had a choice
That's what happens
When the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't
Stupid boy
Stupid boy

So, what made you think
You could take a life
And just push it, push it around
I guess to build youself up so high
you had to take her, break her down

[chorus]
She laid her heart
And soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream
And you crushed her plans
She never knew
She had a choice
That's what happens
When the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't
Stupid boy

Ah you always had to be right
And now you lost the only thing
That ever made you feel alive

[chorus]
She laid her heart
And soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream
And you crushed her plans
She never knew
She had a choice
That's what happens
When the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't
Stupid boy

Ah it's the same old, same old
Stupid boy

It Took a while for her to figure out
She could run and when she did
She was long gone, long gone

Yeah

Stupid boy

You're just a stupid boy
You'll never get it right

I suppose its time,
To see where this will go,
Let's say all the things we already know,
Let's start making plans,
I want you to see
I ain't got a doubt, You're the only one for me

I'm gonna step up, Gonna stand tall
Im gonna take your hand and understand
when you need a place to fall
Gonna come through, stick up for you
And any time you want to fly,
I will be your Big Blue Sky

This new world is tough,
love can lose its way,
You and I gotta be strong,
Take it day by day
We've got something real,
We can make it last,
I'll give you my word, I'll never take it back

I'm gonna step up, Gonna stand tall
I'm gonna take your hand and understand
when you need a place to fall
Gonna come through, stick up for you
And any time you want to fly,
I will be your Big Blue Sky

Big Blue Sky in your eyes
Big Blue Sky

I'm gonna step up, Gonna stand tall
I'm gonna take your hand and understand
when you need a place to fall
Gonna come through, stick up for you
And any time you want to fly,
I will be your Big Blue Sky
And any time you want to fly,
I will be your Big Blue Sky
