I Can Love You Better
(Kostas/Pamela Brown-Hayes)

Doo-n-doo Ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah-ee-yeah

She's got you wrapped up in her satin and lace
Tied around her little finger
She's got you thinking you never can escape
Don't you know your heart's in danger
There's a devil in that angel face
If you could only see the love that you're wasting.

I can love you better than that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm asking is for one little chance
'Cause baby, I can love you
Baby, I can love you better

I'm gonna break the spell she's got on you
You're gonna wake up to find
I'm your desire
My intentions are true
Hey babe, I know in time
You're gonna see what you mean to me
So open up your eyes cause seeing is believing

I can love you better than that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm asking is for one little chance
'Cause baby, I can love you
Baby, I can love you better

Oh-n-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Yeah-ee-yeah-eah-eah-eah
Ooh-ooh, yeah

I can love you better than that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm asking is for one little chance
'Cause baby, I can love you

I can love you better than that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm asking is for one little chance
'Cause baby, I can love you
Baby, I can love you
I can love you better than that
I can love you better
I can love you better than that
Baby, I can love you
Baby, I can love you better


Wide Open Spaces
(Susan Gibson)

Who doesn't know what I'm talking about
Who's never left home who's never struck out
To find a dream and a life of their own
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
Many precede and many will follow
A young girl's dream no longer hollow
It takes the shape of a place out West
But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed

She needs wide open spaces
Room to make her big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes

She traveled this road as a child
Wide-eyed and grinning she never tired
But now she won't be coming back with the rest
If these are life's lessons, she'll take the test

She needs wide open spaces
Room to make her big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes

As her folks drive away her dad yells, "Check the oil!"
Mom stares out the window and says
"I'm leaving my girl."
She says, "It didn't seem like that long ago
When she stood there and let her own folks know."

She needs wide open spaces
Room to make her big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes
 

There's Your Trouble
(Tia Sillers/Mark Selby)

Should have been different, but
It wasn't different, was it
Same old story
Dear John and
So long

Should have fit like a glove
Should have fit like a ring, Like a
Diamond ring
Token of
True Love

Should have all worked out but it didn't
She should be here now but she isn't

There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can't see I love you
You can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble

So now you're thinking 'bout
All you're missing how
Deep you're sinking
Round and round dragging down

Why don't you cash in your chips
Why don't you call in a loss
Not such a big loss
Chalk it up better luck

Could have been true love but it wasn't
It should all add up but it doesn't

There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can't see I love you
You can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble

Should of all worked out but it didn't
She should be here now but she isn't

There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can't see I love you
You can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble
There's your trouble
There's your trouble
There's your trouble
There's your trouble

You Were Mine
(Martie Seidel/Emily Erwin)

I can't find a reason to let go
Even though you've found a new love
And she's what your dreams are made of
I can't find a reason to hang on
What went wrong can be forgiven
Without you it ain't worth livin' alone

Sometimes I wake up crying at night
And sometimes I scream your name
What right does she have to take you away
When for so long you were mine

I took out all the pictures of
Our wedding day
It was a time of love and laughter
Happy ever after
But even those old pictures have
Begun to fade
Please tell me she's not real
And that you're really coming home to stay

Sometimes I wake up crying at night
And sometimes I scream your name
What right does she have to take you away
When for so long you were mine

I can give you two good reasons
Show you love's not blind
He's two and she's four and you know
They adore you
So how can I tell them you've changed
Your mind

Sometimes I wake up crying at night
And sometimes I scream your name
What right does she have to take you away
When for so long you were mine

I remember when you were mine

I'll Take Care Of You
(John David Souther)

Times are hard and rents are high
What can a working girl do
But struggle through another day
Then I'll take care of you

Nights are long and dreams are cold
If they're all you wake up to
But should you rise with cryin' eyes
I'll take care of you

So let them talk about us
Let them call us funny things
People sometimes do
I don't care as long
As you know I love you
Oh, and you know I do

I'll be there but you might not see me
It's never easy to get through
But when the laughter dies away
I'll take care of you

Darling I'll take care of you

Once You've Loved Somebody
(Thom McHugh/Bruce Miller)

I should go out tonight
Get on with my life
Break these chains of solitude
With a little luck and a little help
I might even find myself
In the arms of someone new

Once you've loved somebody
It ain't that easy to do
Once you've loved somebody
Like I loved you

Look what you've gone and done
You've ruined everything for anyone
Who tries to steal this heart away
I can't get you off of my mind
I've tried to tell myself a million times
A little time is all it takes

Once you've loved somebody
It ain't that easy to do
Once you've loved somebody
Like I loved you

I gave you everything that I had to give
I don't know if I can go that far again

Once you've loved somebody
It ain't that easy to do
Once you've loved somebody
Like I loved you

Once you've loved somebody
It ain't that easy to do
Once you've loved somebody
Like I loved you
