If you're driven into town, with a dark cloud above you,
Dial in the number thats bound to love you,
Oh honey you turn me on, I'm a radio,
I'm a country station,
I'm a little bit corny
--
And shouldn't I have this?
Shouldn't I have this?
Shouldn't I have all of this and,
Passionate kisses,
Passionate kisses,
Passionate kisses,
from you.

Is there life out there?
So much she hasn't done,
Is there life beyond, her family and her home?
She's done what she should,
Should she do what she dares?
She doesn't wanna leave,
She's just wonderin
Is there life out there?
--
I can feel so unsexy
For someone so beautiful
So unloved
For someone so fine
I can feel so borring
For someone so interesting
So ignorant
For someone of sound mind
--
And through the years
And the kids
And the jobs
And the dreams that lost their way
Do you ever stop to wonder?
Do you ever just, wanna say
Hey
Cinderella
Whats the story all about?
I got a funny feeling
We missed a page or two somehow
Oh
Cinderella
Maybe you can help us out?
Does the shoe
Fit you now?
--
She'll take the painting in the hallway
The one she did in jr. high
And that old lamp up in the attic
She'll need some light
to study by
And she's had 18 years
To get ready for this day
She should be past the tears
But she cries some anyway
Oh
Letting go
There's nothing in her way now
Oh
Letting go
There's room enough to fly
And even though
She's spent her whole life waiting
It's never easy
Letting go.

I read those words just hours before
My grandma passed away
In the doorway of a church
Where me and Grandpa stopped to pray
You know I'd never seen him cry
In all my fifteen years
But as he read those words to her
His eyes filled up with tears
If you get there before I do
Don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores are through
I don't know how long I'll be
But I'm not gonna let you down
Just you wait and see
And between now and then
Until I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love,
Me
--
I can still see the hem of the dress
And the comb as it's parting your hair
And the person
I held is still here
In my lazy eye
That looks at you
And sees you
The same as before
--
My old friend
Said to me
That I ain't bein
What I'm s'possed to be
I don't know
Could be true
I know I wasn't always there for you
--
He turned on the lights
And turned them off again
And said the one thing he could say
For all these years
Where have I been?
Well I've been down the road to work
And home again.
Still I'm here
Untill I'm gone
So don't you rub it in too hard that I've been wrong
All these years
--
Don't listen to the hype about the UFOs
There's too many things
Nobody know
Oh
They do there job and you do yours
Nobody does it better
We're the children of the stars
You are big
And you shine like the sun
Feel it in your heart
The dream that will be spun
Take some time
To know yourself
You shine like the sun
Feel it
In your heart
The dream
--
Is there a light?
Can you see the light shine?
I think I found a way through
You know that things had changed
But the fear remained in me
Till I touched the light in you
--
Shattered by our weakness
Shattered by our smiles
--
That I would be good,
Even if I did nothing
That I would be good
Even if I got a thumbs down
That I would be good
If I got and stayed sick
That I would be good
Even if I gained ten pounds
--
Smile
Though your heart is aching
Smile
Even though it's breaking
When there are clouds
In the sky
You'll get by
If you smile
Through your tears and sorrow
Smile
And maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life
Is still worthwhile
If you just
Smile.
--
Where are you going?
With the long face
Pulling down
Don't hide away
Like the Ocean
That you can't see
But you can smell
And the sound of waves
crash down
I am no superman
I have no reasons for you
I am no hero thats for sure
But I do know one thing
Where you are
Is where I belong
I do know
Where you go
Is where I wanna be
--
Never knew
I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish
Inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart
Can you hear it sing?
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change
Winter to spring
But I love you
Until the end of time
--
Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Once there was a way
To get back home
Sleep pretty darling
Do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
--
The time
Has come
To say
Goodnight
Good night
Sleep Tight
Now the sun
Turns out
His light
Good night
Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
