2. That's The Way

Everybody wants an easy ride on the merry-go-round that we call life

Take a drive on cruise control then you wake to find it�s a winding road

I had my dreams in view when the money ran out and the engine blew

Hung my tears out to dry then my dreams fell out of the clear blue sky

And I, I was walkin� the clouds

Feelin� so safe and sound

Something else knocks me down

Chorus

Well, oh that�s the way it is, you gotta roll with the punches

That�s the way it goes, you gotta bend when the wind blows

You live you learn, you crash and burn, it�s hit or miss

That�s the way it is

One fine day you wake up, completely, hopelessly fallin� in love

He�s just what you�re lookin for, the only problem is that the man�s not sure

Another guy will give you everything, only problem is you don�t feel a thing

Well I know from experience nothing�s ever gonna make perfect sense

Oh, one day you get what you want

But it�s not what you think

Then you get what you need

Repeat Chorus

Yeah, they say your soul is growin� but

Sometimes I feel like throwin� somethin�

Last Chorus

And that�s the way it is, you gotta roll with the punches

That�s the way it goes, you gotta bend when the wind blows

That�s the way it is, you gotta roll with the punches

That�s the way it goes, you gotta bend when the wind blows

You live you learn, you crash and burn, it�s hit or miss

That�s the way it is

That�s the way it goes

3. Dare To Dream

You and me baby, can meet for the weekend

To solidify all our plans

We�ll follow a jet stream to some place exotic

All in the name of romance...

�Cause

We�re still young and in love

And we just believe

We can be strong and do anything

If we dare to dream

We�ll find a place on a cliff by the ocean

Any pay a couple months rent

I�ll sell my paintings down by the boardwalk

So we�ll have enough money to spend...

Chorus

Dare to dream, take it to the extreme

Let your heart and soul lead the way

Live, love, seize the day and

Dare to dream, dare to dream, dare to dream

Don�t try to stop us, don�t tell us we�re crazy

You�re only wasting your breath

We�re bound and determined to make it all happen

It�s just a matter of when

�Cause...

Repeat Chorus

4. Burn

Do you wanna be a poet and write

Do you wanna be an actor up in lights

Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love

Do you wanna travel the world

Do you wanna be a diver for pearls

Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above

Be anyone you want to be

Bring to life your fantasies

But I want something in return

Chorus

I want you to burn

Burn for me baby

Like a candle in my night

Oh burn Burn for me, burn for me

Are you gonna be a gambler and deal

Are you gonna be a doctor and heal

Or go to heaven and touch God�s face

Are you gonna be a dreamer who sleeps

Are you gonna be a sinner who weeps

Or an angel under grace

I�ll lay down on your bed of coals

Offer up my heart and soul

But in return

Repeat Chorus

Laugh for me, cry for me

Pray for me, fly for me

Live for me , die for me

Repeat Chorus

5. If Not You

I�ll admit, I can be hard to please

Now and then I disagree just to disagree

There are times I want what I want �cause I want it

There are things I don�t know I have when I got �em

But when I look at you I ask myself

How could there be somebody else

Chorus

If not you - who

Is ever going to make me happy

If not love - what

Is it I feel for you

If I search the world

Over, under, still I wonder

Who would I be looking for-

yeah, who

If not you

When I�m stuck and feel locked up, you turn the key

You minimize all of my insecurities

You always seem to know what I need when I need it

And when I say I need only you...believe it

Of all the many mysteries yet to come

I�ve solved the most important one

Repeat Chorus

There are times I want what I want �cause I want it

There are things I don�t know I have when I got �em

But when I look at you I ask myself

How could there be somebody else

Repeat Chorus

If not you, if not you - who

6. Closer

I love the way you look at me

Can�t you see

You�re the only one that I could ever need?

Can�t you feel how much

How much I wanna get

Maybe just a little, just a little bit

Chorus

Closer

Closer than anything

Don�t you wanna be?

Closer

Til there�s nothing in between

You and me

I gotta make a secret confession

All I really want is all your affection

Get a little crazy every time we touch

Close as we are, we could get so much

Repeat Chorus

Baby don�t you wanna get

Maybe just a little bit

Look into my eyes

Just get hypnotized

One little magic kiss

We could always feel like this

Come on over here and get

Closer

Repeat Chorus

Baby don�t you wanna get

Maybe just a little

One little magic kiss

Look into my eyes

Just get hypnotized

Come on over here

7. These Are The Days

I wake up to the sunshine out my

window and the passin� sound of

a homeless man

Singin� an ol� Cole Porter song

The faucet leaks, the TV�s on the blink again

But my restless dreams are still intact

Even though it�s takin� way too long

Got a hundred dollars in coke tin on my shelf

And I�m thinkin� to myself, whoa

Chorus

These are the days you will

remember for the rest of your life

These are the memories you�ll

pack in a box and you�ll pull �em out

sometimes

So pick your flowers, count the

seconds, roll the dice

But, baby, don�t wait �til it�s

too late

Put a smile on your face

These are the days

Outside the people rush to get

ahead for checks, promotions and

fancy cars

Happiness is just around the bend

Old Mrs. Bell sits out and suns her

face, and as I walk by I hear her say

This is as good as it gets

There goes the business suit who

owns this whole dawn lot

His roller coaster never stops

I wanna say to him

Repeat Chorus

8. Saturday Night

Every week it comes �round

With a feel like New Year�s Eve

Short dress, de-stress, tonight I couldn�t care less

Take a look at me

So I put myself together

Paint my lips and lashes on

�Cause I know there�s someone out there

Wantin� me to come along

Chorus

It�s the night of the week when my dreams hit the street

With pearls and high heels on

Take a shot at romance, do I stand a chance

Will destiny be good to me

It�s the thrill of the kiss that on

Monday I�ll miss

When I look back and say

Oh, my Lord you should have seen me Saturday

Saturday (Saturday, Saturday) Night

Mary�s got a Mustang

We all pile in

Downtown, top down, rockin� while we ride around

Let the night begin

I�m just searchin� for a dreamer

Who�ll steal my heart away

Strong and shy with I dare you eyes

And a smile who lights the way

Repeat Chorus

Five days out of seven slavin�

I need one that�s just for me

It�s the thrill of the kiss that on

Monday I�ll miss

When I look back and say

Oh, my Lord you should have seen me Saturday

Saturday, oh Saturday, Saturday

Oh, Saturday, Saturday night

Saturday night

9. Angelene

Angelene, she�s such a pretty thing

All dolled up in her hip-huggin� jeans

Mama�s heels and her ruby red rouge

Sneakin� out while her daddy�s passed out

Hangin� out with the wrong crowd

She�s got all the right moves

And she�s givin� away little pieces of her innocence

She don�t know what she�s lookin� for

She just knows something�s missin�

Chorus

Oh, Angelene, can�t you see

What you need ain�t what you�re gettin�

Oh, Angelene, you�re bein� used

Save some of that love for you,

Angelene

Angelene is sure that he�s the cure

He�s got a kind of reckless allure

Like a fast ride on the wild side

So she turns her cheek when he�s havin� a mean streak

And if you ask her real sweet

She won�t look you in the eye

And she�s callin� it love, ah, but there is no resemblance

It�s a drive down a dead end street on the past of most resistance

Repeat Chorus

Yeah, she�s givin� away little pieces of her innocence

She don�t know what she�s lookin� for

She just knows something�s missin�

Repeat Chorus

10. Nothing I Can Do

Here I am beggin� you to hold me

When everything is tellin� me to run

I could turn around, leave this town

Without a sound and never say word one

And just call it done

But I�m torn right down the middle

I�m on both sides of the line

I know I should be leavin�

But the choice ain�t mine

Chorus

There�s nothin� I can do

I can�t fight it

I got a heart like a rocket

I just gotta ride it

Oh the cold, hard truth

When it comes to lovin� you

There�s nothin� I can do

These footprints on my heart could

tell a story many times it�s been a

steppin� stone

It�s been pushed around, broken down, until I found

I was better off alone

I remember every heartache, just like

it was yesterday

But baby when you hold me, you take

all that pain away

Repeat Chorus

I couldn�t help myself from fallin�

Even if I really wanted to

Solo

Repeat Chorus

11. Bring On The Rain (with Tim McGraw)

Another day has almost come and gone

Can�t imagine what else could go wrong

Sometimes I�d like to hide away

somewhere and lock the door

A single battle lost but not the war (�cause)

Chorus

Tomorrow�s another day

And I�m thirsty anyway

So bring on the rain

It�s almost like hard times circle �round

A couple drops and they all start coming down

Yeah, I might feel defeated,

I might hang my head

I might be barely breathing-

but I�m not dead

Repeat Chorus

Solo (� verse)

I�m not gonna let it get me down,

I�m not gonna cry

And I�m not gonna lose any sleep tonight

Repeat Chorus
