Every man dreams of a love that's true I always did and then I met you I have to admit girl, you took me like a storm Blowin out of control, but so sweet and warm I thought I had one (repeat) Every man thinks that the love he finds Is gonna be his until the end of time But I was wrong, and now your gone butI thought I had one (repeat) Now I'm alone tonight thinking of you It was hell to find out you wer'nt true But life's a learning lesson That sometimes we doubt But it always shows what lies are all about Cause I thought I had one (repeat)

Conscience 03:11
I hope someday you hear these words I'm singing cause I'll probaly never be your way again but, I'd like for you to know that I still love you so and I believe the way you did me was a sin You just can't tear a heart to pieces and leave it on the ground just to die sometimes I go out of my mind since you left me here behind girl, everything you told was a lie Every night that goes by that I sit and cry I pray that God will keep you alright but, if you have a conscience girl, and I know that you do it'll haunt you every night

I wonder if merle found that place to fall apart Like he was looking for in that song that he sung I wish that I could find it somehow, someway cause today, I really came undone. And sometimes, I'd just like to ask him How do you roll with the flow And I'd like for anyone to tell me Where do the lonely go. There really is no place to fall apart You leave your heart where it's lying and try to make a new start The tears never warn you, when they decide to start There really is no place to fall apart

I was the first one to love her She was so gentle and sweet. I promised her I'd stay forever She layed her heart at my feet. But I cound'nt let go of the bottle And you know how the bottle gets you down. Now I'd like to hold her and tell her I love her But thanks to the bottle she's not around. A friend said she had our baby So beautiful, words can't describe. If only I could have stopped drinking I could be there by thier side But now she'll never know me She'll never know me She'll just wonder why her daddy let her down. I'd like to hold her and love her forever But thanks to the bottle, she's not around

I'm leaving this old trailer for the weekend Oh heck, I might just stay out all week long. I'm gonna hit every bar I can I'm gonna be a ramblin man. cause I'm tired of hurtin just because your gone. I'm breakin loose, Lord I'm breakin loose I'm tired of being lied to and abused so I do'nt need you around to try and bring me down It's all over girl, I'm breakin loose. I've been sitting here ever since you left me feeling sorry for myself, and thats the truth I'm gonna bend these guitar strings until all the damn things break. I'm coming at you world, I'm breakin loose.

Yes Girl 04:02
Yes girl, there really is forever Yes girl, from now on the sun will shine Yes girl, there'll always be some bad weather But we'll live thru it, as long as you are mine. Yes girl, I will always love you Yes girl, I'll tell you every day and night Yes girl, you'll always be my one and only and together, we can make this old world right. Now close your eyes and lay down here and hold me and hold me like a lover and a friend cause we have something special honey We have something that only God can end.

I don't want to meet you, out there on the street I don't want to see you drive by. I don't want to hear your name, mentioned by a friend I don't want another reason to cry. I don't want to need you I don't want to hold you I don't want to love you, but honey I still do. I don't want to think of you, when I lay down at night I don't want to toss and turn and ache to hold you tight. I don't want to hear your footsteps in the hall I don't want to sit and stare at your picture on the wall. I don't want to need you I don't want to hold you I don't want to love you, but honey I still do.

Brand New Friend (free) 03:12
This bottle has become a friend of mine We hold on to each other all the time. Sometimes it helps me get you off my mind Yes this bottle has become a friend of mine. For the short time that I held you it was good But you did'nt stay the way you said you would. So while you're out there with your brand new man I'm holding on to my brand new friend. Someday I hope you realize the harm that you have done To a heart that only wanted you to be number one. Maybe I'll get over you, tho it may take some time Until I do I'll just kepp leaning on this Friend of mine.

Will you hold me, one more time, the way you use to Would you smile at me the way you did back then. Just look at me, with those eyes so captivating then maybe, I can let you go again. Would you cry a little, as you walk away Like you did'nt do the day you said you could'nt stay Would you smile at me, hold me tight and then, if I do'nt fall to peices, may I can let you go again. Would you hold my hand, just once and lets go walking Would you talk to me, like I was more than just a friend. Then maybe, I can let you go again.

I'm sorry your world's upside down I'm sorry your prince don't come arount I dont have the answer to your questions today But you won't find them, if you run away. So while I'm still here Let me hold you real tight If you feel any comfort I'll hold you all night. And if you want me too, darlin, I'll stay And I'll love all your trouble, love all your trouble away
