I know you don’t want to hear About how I’ve been I know you don’t really care About the shape I’m in The dropping of a pin And we love And we fight And we laugh And we cry But I hope you can hold on to the good times Yes, I hope you can hold on to the good times While you lie next to him I hope you remember when love shot through your heart And changed the sparkling of stars And we love And we fight And we laugh And we cry But I hope you can hold on to the good times Yes, I hope you can hold on to the good times I know you don’t want to hear About how I’ve been I know you don’t really care About the shape I’m in The dropping of a pin And we love And we fight And we laugh And we cry But I hope you can hold on to the good times Yes, I hope you can hold on to the good times Yes, I hope you can hold on to the good times Yes, I hope you can hold on to the good times And while you lie next to him I hope you remember when my love shot through your heart
Track 2 Your Whole Life
Well I hope you know I’ll always be your friend
And I hope things work out in the end
Even though you chose a different route
And now your life has changed
But your hunger for love will never be tamed
You understand what others scratch about
Well I’ll never know what it’s like to be on top
So many go their whole lives without a doubt
But you’ve got your whole life to figure it out
Simultaneously aware of what is right and what is fair
The Holy Grail of what it’s all about
Don’t compete with lover’s hearts
If you can’t handle cleaning up the shards
So there’s no need to fuss and shout
Well I’ll never know what it’s like to be on top
So many go their whole lives without a doubt
But you’ve got your whole life to figure it out.
Well I’ll never know what it’s like to be on top
So many go their whole lives without a doubt
But you’ve got your whole life
Yes, you’ve got your whole life
Yes, you’ve got your whole life
To figure it out
Track 3 Almost But Not Quite (It's the Story of My Life)
In second grade I was put behind a wall
I could hear the talk, the walk I never saw
No one told me what to do
It’s the story of my life
No matter how much you try to fit it in
The square is square and the circle always wins
There’s no name for my shape
It’s the story of my life
Almost but not quite
It’s the story of my life
That’s the story of my life
Almost but not quite
It’s the story of my life
That’s the story of my life
Better late than never’s
What the teacher said
That’s the only thing I kept inside my head
Now I’m never on time
It’s the story of my life
Almost but not quite
It’s the story of my life
That’s the story of my life
It’s the story of my life
That’s the story of my life
Track 4 Point of the Pace
I won’t lie, I won’t steal I won’t drink And get behind the wheel I won’t forget To kiss you goodnight Nod my head and smile and say Everything is alright All these promises All there ever is Nothing more to say Actions speak louder than words That’s all that matters at the end of the day If two can play the same game Then why’s it called a race If you’re only in it to see the finish Then what’s the point of the pace I’m not done I won’t give up I won’t stop until I’ve had enough I’m pretty tough I’m like a rock Don’t know when to quit I don’t know how to stop All these promises All there ever is Nothing more to say Actions speak louder than words That’s all that matters at the end of the day If two can play the same game Then why’s it called a race If you’re only in it to see the finish Then what’s the point of the pace All these promises All there ever is Nothing more to say Actions speak louder than words That only matters at the end of the day If two can play the same game Then why’s it called a race If you’re only in it to see the finish Then what’s the point of the pace What’s the point of the pace
Track 5 Affirmation
All the thoughts rolling through my head
Makes me want to die
That which brought me going to my bed
It’s not that hard to say goodbye
Hold on
Hold on
Walk away so I don’t have to see
The way you look at me
Lock it up and throw away the key
The way we used to be
Hold on
Hold on
Holding on to memories
All this time I can’t believe
That you would try to fight for me
Please don’t leave
Please believe
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Track 6 You Are the Only One
Settle down, Baby Don’t you give it another thought 'Cuz beauties like you never need what the others got You can search the whole world asking every other girl What it is that they really want I bet you every time a shiny silver dime The answer you will find I need a man who will stick with me Tell me I’ll never leave
Give me love and some sympathy
Time and your company
An offered shoulder where I can cry
Hold me until I die
Don’t look back at the setting sun
Say I’m the only one
Hold on, Honey
Let me show you just how it feels
The kind of love you give you won’t find in any movie reels
Cuz no giant silver screen could ever show the kind of dream
Like the one that spins my wheels
I only want to do the love that sees us through
You can bet that it’s absolute
That I’ll be the man who will stick with you
I’ll never fly the coop
Give you love and my sympathy
Time is my only fee
I will be the one to dry your eye
I’ll be right by your side
Written in the stars, it’s said and done
You are my only one
(Yeah I said) I am I am the man I am the only one
(Yes you are, yes you)
You are you are you are you are my only one
Track 7 Analytical Brains
Forget about your worries
Forget about your pain
There’s nothing more discouraging
Than analytical brains
I’m climbing up your doorstep
To see where you’ve been
I’m sorry my mind crept
It happens over and over again
When you see the lines around your eyes
Remember you and I
I never had to hurry
I’ve got too much time
My memory is blurry
Was it you that said goodbye
I can’t explain the concept
There isn’t much to say
Most of it is nonsense
You wouldn’t understand anyway
When you see the lines around your eyes
Remember you and I
Remember you and I
When you see the lines around your eyes
Remember you and I
Remember you and I
Remember you and I
Track 8 Heart of a Lion
Born with the heart of a lion
Stronger than anyone I knew
You were the one we’d rely on
There wasn’t anything you couldn’t do
Even though you’re gone from sight
You’re always on my mind
Not out of love
Just out of time
One of a kind
Two peas in a pod
You taught me so much about love
Now that you made your peace with God
You’ll have to shine on us from above
As you leave you wave goodbye
You tell me it’s alright
Not out of mind
Just out of sight
I’ll never forget how much we laughed
Your crooked smile and sparkling eyes
Our time went by much too fast
It’s so hard to grasp that everyone dies
But now you’ve got your toes in the sand
Sleeping inside of God’s hand
Just going back, back where you began
I wish I knew you when you were young
Cuz 32 years just wasn’t enough.
Track 9 Why You Wanna Mess (with My Heart Like This)
Well I’ve had this heart for 32 years
And it's seen a lot of love and seen a lot of tears
I still have what’s left of what you tore
So thanks for making it stronger than it was before
I wanna tell you that
I don’t wanna play these games anymore
Playin’ with my insides, walkin’ out the door
We ain’t doctors, no we ain’t cardiologists so
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why
Poking around to see what you find
Well I hope it’s a diamond ring and a little piece of mind
Cuz it seems all you’ve been giving me is hard luck and lies
A temporary fix for what satisfies
I wanna tell you that
I don’t wanna play these games anymore
Messin’ with my insides, walkin’ out the door
We ain’t doctors, no we ain’t cardiologists so
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why you wanna mess with my heart like this
Why, why, why, why
Well you see a lot people throughout history
Lookin’ like good lovin’ is the right place to be
But it takes a lot of blood and a whole lot of sweat
And even then it won’t get you where you want to get
