Cared Too Much

God is the only one
Who really knows how you feel
The only one you can trust
Well I trusted you
You made a fool out of me
I was the fool who cared too much

You flash your eyes
You flash your leg
You flash your smile and you throw your hex
A heart so hard
A mind so blank
You only care about what you want next

They say God is the only one
Who really knows how you feel
The only one you can trust
Well I trusted you
You made a fool out of me
I was the fool who cared too much

You feel real bad
But not that bad
Your sorrow only runs so deep
You cheat and lie
And then you hide
A heart so filled with deceit

Well God is the only one
Who really knows how you feel
The only one you can trust
Well I trusted you
You made a fool out of me
I was the fool who cared too much

Don’t Come To Me

Don’t give your love
If you’re gonna take it away
Don’t come to me
If you’re not willing to stay
Don’t bring us together
To tear us apart
Don’t win my love
Then break my heart

Grew Up Lonely

I grew up lonely 1961
Everybody had so many friends
But I just had one
And right about then
My whole world was a settin sun

I learned to go inside 1962
There was so much trouble
The only thing I could do
And right about then
My thoughts they all turned to you

Many things you must do in life
You must do on your own
Many things you must do in life
You must do them on your own
And always remember
I will never leave you alone

I grew up lonely 1962
To go inside was
The only thing I could do
And right about then
My thoughts they all turned to you

It Hurts To Say Goodbye

The problem is I don’t see what you see

You don’t know what its like to be me
All these things that get in our way
Love don’t ever come for free
But if for a minute and just one time
I could show you all the love in my heart
Do you think that we could make a new start?
I never wanted to hurt you
I never wanted to cry
I never wanted to fade away
And watch love die

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts to say goodbye

Wakin up day after day
Wonderin if you’re goin my way
I’m so sick of just hangin on
I got nothin left to say
People go walkin down empty streets
When they know they got nobody to meet
Try to make some meaning out of defeat
I’m still lookin for answers
But the questions are gone
Wonderin who’s right
Wonderin who’s wrong

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts to say goodbye

Where’s the manifested glory sacred scenes
No one ever says what they mean
Reality crashin down all around
I’m still searchin for a dream
Why you left me I still don’t know
Things aren’t always as they seem
Gotta take the lines and read in between
I keep telling myself
It’s been way too long
I keep telling myself
I gotta be strong

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts to say goodbye
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts to say goodbye

Let Someone Love You

Nothin ventured
Nothing lost
Nothin gained
At such a cost
So much wasted
Meant for good
Never doin
The things you should

Just for once try and
Let somebody love you

You can’t cheat nature
God won’t be mocked
There’s consequences
The road gets blocked
What you doin
Ain’t who you are
The way you’re livin
You won’t get far

Just for once try and
Let somebody love you

Just like water
From a broken dam
I can’t stop bein
Just who I am
Indecision
Wastes so much time
But bein reckless
Hurt you every time

Just for once try and
Let somebody love you

Just for once try and
Understand the one who loves you

Prisoner Of Time

Prisoner of time prisoner of strife
Prisoner of love prisoner for life
Well I can’t control none of these things
How could you prepare for all that life brings?

I got a home I got a car
And I always thought I would go far
Never makin plans life on the run
Some things feel like they’re over
Before they’ve begun

The river rolls it rolls to the sea
Water’s cold muddy and deep
Banks are torn where the grasses grow
Some things you think you know
You really don’t know

A baby cries for his mother’s love
Some of my friend sent from above
You spend half your life
Just learnin how to love your self
You spend the other half
Learnin how to love somebody else

River rolls it rolls to the sea
Water’s cold muddy and deep
Banks are torn where the grasses grow
Some things you think you know
You really don’t know

River rolls it rolls to the sea
Water’s cold muddy and deep
Banks are torn where the grasses grow
Some things you think you know
You really don’t know
Some things you think will show they never show
Some people you think you know you never know

Time To Move On

I wanna reach out for someone
But someone’s not there
Because I know things could be worse
Doesn’t make me know you care
Feel like I’m walkin on barbed wire
Twistin through the night
Walkin this high wire
Searchin for a light

I know what’s wrong
I been waitin too long
The feelin much too strong
I gotta let it go
Time to move on

Sometimes I feel so naked
So raw and so exposed
Can’t hide the need I feel inside
Feel like I’m gonna explode
My heart is bustin at its seams
My mind’s lost all control
I need your love to get me by
To make my life whole

Night can fall so hard
So dark and so long
When you feel you can’t go on
It’s time to let it go
Time to move on

Tryin to set boundaries
I’ve broke for so long
Settin priorities
Searchin for a song
Hounded by memories of all that’s gone wrong
Feelin helpless through the cold dark night
Waitin for the dawn

But you’ll find a way
Today’s not another day
To fit where you belong
When you let it go
Start to move on
It’s time to move on
Time to move on
Time to move on

True Love Brings Peace of Mind

Spend too much time waitin
Not takin what I need for myself
Too much hesitation
Worryin about someone else
And now I gotta leave it
Leave it all behind
Always remember that
True love brings peace of mind

Too much in the shadows
Walkin in disbelief
All my hopes and dreams
Stole in the night by some thief
When you lose your vision
It happens all the time
You can’t see too clearly
When you’re flyin blind

I’m down on my knees
Lookin for some help from above
Some kind of reassurance
Just to know that I’m loved
But you’ll never escape the heartache
As long as you’re alive
That’s why you gotta remember that
True love brings peace of mind

Turnin Wheel

The love I feel is so strong
The darkest night a brilliant dawn
The masquerade now must die
There’s so many tears wonderin’ why

But I feel a turnin’ wheel
But I feel a turnin’ wheel

There’s disappointment trouble and strife
A common thread in so many lives
You’re a speck in the ocean
You’re a child of God
Step in the world
You meet the grand facade

But I feel a turnin’ wheel
But I feel a turnin’ wheel

The river’s dark deep and wide
It’s crystal clear on the other side
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
There’s so many things you never get to chose

But I feel a turnin’ wheel
But I feel a turnin’ wheel

What Can I Give You

What can I say now
That I couldn’t say before?
What can I do now
That I couldn’t do before?

I know it’s over
I know that you’re gone
You know I still want you
It seems so hard to carry on

What can I give you
That I didn’t give before?
How can I love you
When I couldn’t love before?

Time is a healer
You learn to forget
You can’t go on livin
In the days of deep regret

What can I give you
That I couldn’t give before?
How can I love you
When I couldn’t love before?
