What Else Can I Do
(Tony Arata & Scott Miller)

All that you could hold againdt me
But you hold my hand
What makes no sense to me
You say you understand
When I try to cut loose and let go
Yoy just take a little tighter hold

 CHORUS:
 What else can I do
 What else can I do
 What else can I do, Darlin'
 But fall in love with you

I've tried to fight it
But it's much too strong
I can try to hide it
But you've known all along

A heart rock-solid and sound
Little by little is crumblin' down

 CHORUS

When I try to cut loose and let go
You just take a little tighter hold

You Can't Resist It
(Lyle Lovett)

She was old enough
To know better
And she was strong enogh
To be true
She was hard enough
To know better
But he was snart enough to know what to do

 CHORUS:
 And you can't resist it
 When it happens to you
 You can't resist it
 When it happens to you

And you can tell your story
And you can swear it's true
But save all your lying
For some other fool

 CHORUS

She was old enough
To know better
And she was strong enogh
To be true
She was hard enough
To know whether
And he was smart enough
To know what to do

Somebody's Leaving
(Kostas & Matraca Berg)

Burning tear drops
Well up in silence
Caught in the eye of the storm
Broken dreams and shattered pictures
Lie in pieces on the floor

Taxi's waiting out on the street
Layin' all over the horn
By now everyone in the neighborhood
Knows there's something going on

 CHORUS:
 Somebody's Leavin'
 Somebody's Leavin'
 Somebody's gone

Burning candle
Lonely shadows
There ain't no love here at all
Just the pounding of my heart
And the writing on the wall

 CHORUS

And this cold, lonely feelin' sets in
And my heartache's about to begin
And the night seems to whisper over and over again

 CHORUS

Somebody's gone

Diamonds
(Tom Kimmel & Karen Besbeck)

Like a paint filled canvas
In shades of white and blue
I'm filled with questions
And I'm calling out to you
To find a way
To forgiveness
For all of our mistakes

And you should know the truth
I can't stay in a worls without you

 CHORUS:
 The years roll by
 Like diamonds
 Sometimes they shine
 Sometimes they're rough
 Roll by
 Like diamonds
 Leaving only love to comfort us

A single hour
Alone this far from you
Is like the vine without roses
The night without the moon
The more I know
The less I understand
Your need to go
And why the church bells ring
At the end as well as the birth of things

 CHORUS

Have faith (I keep hearin')
Have hope (Is what I feel inside)
Have strength (And love will come to you)
Like a diamond shining in the night

The Bridge
(Tom Kimmel & Jim Pitman)

Sometimes, I wonder what's the right thing
Maybe you could let me know
We were struck by lightning
A lifetime ago
No one else's vision
Ever let me see
How your good intentions
Cast a spell on me

 CHORUS:
 Now here's a bridge I can't get over
 There's a weight I can't get under
 It's a dream I still remember
 But it won't come true
 If there's a lesson I would learn it
 I woud cross it now or burn it
 But there's a bridge I can't get over
 Between me and you

Love can take some crazy side streets
It'll twist and turn you around
Looking for the straight and narrow
Doubt it acn be found
When has hesitation
Set somebody free
Darlin' in your wisdom
Shine your grace on my

 CHORUS

I have lived with indecision
And hoped without a reason
Now I'm tired of all this hurting,
Darlin' give me room to leave

 CHORUS

There's a bridge I can't get over
Betwen me and you

I Don't Wanna Be the One
(Patricia Conroy)

I don't wanna be the one to tell you
She's just keepin' you hangin' on for fun
No, I don't wanna be the one
And bad things come to those who wait
The more you love her
The harder you'll fall
When she let's you down
And I don't wanna be around

 CHORUS:
 Couldn't you catch her in a lie
 She's told so many
 I don't know why you even
 Believe in a word she says
 Somebody's gotta tell you what she's done
 But I don't wanna be the one

And I don't wanna be your friendly warning
Holin' on to your hand and taking you through the fire
Darlin', I have my own desire
I've been waitin'  for so long
Will you want me, baby, when I'm gone
Maybe then you'll see
That she was just a fantasy

 CHORUS

 CHORUS

I don't wanna be the one

Crazy Fool
(Patricia Conroy)

Love you like a crazy fool
I guess that I don't know any better
Need you like the grass needs the rain
Just like the sun clears up the weather

 CHOORUS:
 I can fight the wind
 I can fight the rain
 Let the sun beat on me too
 Part of me
 Will always be yoyr crazy fool

Love you more than words can say
They don't come close to what I'm feelin'
Doesn't matter anyway
Tears when they fall can be so revealing

 CHORUS TWO:
 I can fight the tears
 I can fight the pain
 And my heart can break in two
 Part of me
 Will always be your crazy fool

How can I stop all this feeling inside
Just when you've made up your mind
To let me go
I just don't know if I ever can
Say good-bye

 CHORUS

Part of me
Will always be your crazy fool

Hatt Holster Music (SOCAN)  



Too Be True
(George Teren & Susan Longacre)

I don't need your picture
I'll say a couple words
And tear it up
So much for us
I'll tie your letters, together
I'm gonna let a fire
Burn what you said
So I'll forget

 CHORUS:
 Loving someone, who don'yt love you
 That's bad enough
 I've been sad enough
 Being faithful to a memory too
 Now that's too true blue

No use waiting
If our future's in the past anyhow
Why drag it out
No more small talk
With four walls
I'm hitting this old town
Hard at a run
And the night is young

 CHORUS

No more dark nights seeing red
Over white lies someone said
There won't be nothing to hold me back
Once your memory fades to black

 CHORUS

Now that's too true blue
