Dreaming With My Eyes Wide Open
(Steve Dorff/Eric Kaz)
She knew she caught my eye
And that was all it took
Ain't it just strange how forever
changed
With just one look
The magic filled the night
She touched my soul like no one
else
Yes, the way that woman made me
feel
Left me talking to myself
You better run for cover
You better hide your heart
'Cause once you start to love her
You know you'll never stop
She shines like a diamond
When she walks into a room
She can charm the stars
Hypnotize the moon.
Once I held her close
I knew just where I stood
No, you never get a second chance
To ever feel so good
Then and there I knew
These words were etched in stone
If you can't feel the power of
The greatest love you've known
You better run for cover
You better hide your heart
'Cause once you start to love her
You know you'll never stop
She shines like a diamond
When she walks into a room
She can charm the stars
Hypnotize the moon.
(Clay Walker/Randy Boudreaux/Kim Williams)
So long, see you around
Seen all I wanna see of this town
I'm out of time and I'm out of tears
Out of my mind and I'm out of here
Who needs the heartache, who needs the pain
Who needs to hang around and take the blame
Who needs a woman to make him blue
Who needs you baby-I do
Why are you wearing that negligee
Sure makes it hard to walk away
I gotta go, I can't take this abuse
Why are you smiling, would I lie to you?
Who needs the heartache, who needs the pain
Who needs to hang around and take the blame
Who needs a woman to make him blue
Who needs you baby-I do
You've got your fingers in my hair whispering in my ear
Filling my head full of doubts
Well tell me just what you think you've got
I can't live without
Who needs the heartache, who needs the pain
Who needs to hang around and take the blame
Who needs a woman to make him blue
Who needs you baby-I do
(Jeff Pennig/Michael Lunn)
Tryin' so hard just to talk to you
Haven't heard half of what you
want me to
Hurt so bad over where we've been
Don't know how not to go back there
again
I know what I wanna say
Can I get it through to you now
In some other way...like
There was this woman and there was
this man
There was this moment they had
a chance to hold on to what they had
How could they be so in love and
still never see
Now nothin' could be sadder than
This woman and this man
A stranger's eyes in a lover's face
See no signs of a better time and
place
Have we lost the key to an open
door
I feel the need to reach out to
you even more
It's a circle we're goin' 'round
If we don't get us out from under
It's gonna take us down
There was this woman and there was
this man
There was this moment they had
a chance to hold on to what they had
How could they be so in love and
still never see
Now nothin' could be sadder than
This woman and this man
For all we've got to lose there's
so much to gain
If we come this far and leave it
behind
There's only you and me to blame
There was this woman and there was
this man
There was this moment they had
a chance to hold on to what they had
How could they be so in love and
still never see
Now nothin' could be sadder than
This woman and this man
We can bring it back again
This woman and this man.
Live Until I Die
(Clay Walker)
Skippin´ rocks, skippin´ rope
Laughin´ at all my best friends jokes
Things I loved when I was a kid
Muddy roads, muddy feet
I didn´t live on no blacktop street
Things have changed a lot but I never did
And I don´t wanna think about tomorrow
I don´t need anything money can buy
I don´t have to beg, steal, or borrow
I just wanna live until I die
Livin´ right, livin´ in this little old town
I grew up in
But I still held on to my dreams
Standin´ proud, standin´ tall
Standin´ smack dab in the middle of it all
I don´t worry ´bout things that I can´t
change
And I don´t wanna think about tomorrow
I don´t need anything money can buy
I don´t have to beg, steal, or borrow
I just wanna live until I die
And everything around me are
Things I dearly love
And every night I get on my knees and thank
The Lord above
And I don´t wanna think about tomorrow
I don´t need anything money can buy
I don´t have to beg, steal, or borrow
I just wanna live until I die
I don´t have to beg, steal, or borrow
I just wanna live until I die
Dreaming With My Eyes Wide Open
(Tony Arata)
I spent half my life on bended knee
Begging somebody to change
And the other half prayin´to
God
That they never would
And all it got me was twice as lost
When it all turned out the same
But all that beggin´ finally
did somebody good
I used to dream all night
Of a day that was gone
But come the morning light
Forever from now on
Gonna do my dreaming with my eyes
wide open
I´ll do my looking back
With my eyes closed
We can do some living
Or spend our whole life hopin´
In the end we´re left with
The one we chose
So I´ll do my dreaming with
my eyes wide open
Every time the world moved on
I fell a little further behind
From running back or following
someone home
Until I learned that one step forward
Will take you further on
Than a thousand back or a million
that ain´t
Your own
I used to dream all night
Of a day that was gone
But come the morning light
Forever from now on
Gonna do my dreaming with my eyes
wide open
I´ll do my looking back
With my eyes closed
We can do some living
Or spend our whole life hopin´
In the end we´re left with
The one we chose
So I´ll do my dreaming with
my eyes wide open
We can do some living
Or spend our whole life hopin´
In the end we´re left with
The one we chose
So I´ll do my dreaming with
my eyes wide open
