Yeah, Yeah, Yeah     Don't Let Go     Lonely Long     Favorite

Close Enough For Me     What Happened     Twisted     Wings Workin' Overtime

Monday's Love     If I Ever Lost You     I Got You

Yeah Yeah Yeah
(Brian Leighton, Billy Livsey)

If you ask me do I love you
If you ask me do I care
If I want your arms around me
If I really want you here

Don’t know what you’d think I’d say
But every answer is the same
Yeah Yeah Yeah

If you’re worried about the future
Wonder if I’ll still be here
Every breath becomes my answer
Every heartbeat states it clear

Baby there can be no doubt
Everytime I shout it out
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Yes I’ll always be here
You’ll never stand alone
When the walls come crashing down
And you feel there’s no hope to be found
Yes my mind is made up
There are no more words to say
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Now we’re standing at the altar
Staring in each others eyes
Hearing words about forever
Two souls joined in just one life

When you ask me if I do
I can only smile at you and say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Don’t Let Go
(Brian Leighton, Jay Knowles)

I don’t want to play it cool
Act like meeting you
Aint got me all jumbled up inside

I don’t want to play along
Dance with you for just one song
Then politely step aside

Let’s don’t let go of this
No let’s don’t let this go
Let’s don’t let go of this, no

I don’t want to move too fast
But if I let this moment pass
I may never get the chance again

Tomorrow I will either be
Tangled up in you and me
Or lost in thoughts of what could’ve been
Should’ve been

Let’s don’t let go of this
No let’s don’t let this go
Let’s don’t let go of this, no

In my mind I’ve already let this go too far
Saying goodbye tonight
Would be just like a broken heart

Let’s don’t let go of this
No let’s don’t let this go
Let’s don’t let go of this, no

Lonely Long
(Brian Leighton, Clay Mills)

She walks in out of the dark
Sad blue eyes and a broken heart
Tight red dress hugging her close
Throwing back tequila’s trying to shake them ghosts

Yeah it’s just a matter of time
‘til she gets him off her mind

She won’t be lonely long
A couple more shots and a couple sad songs
She’ll pick up the pieces
She’ll start to smile
A girl like that will drive all the boys wild
He’ll be wishing he never did her wrong
She won’t be lonely long

You can tell she’s made up her mind
She aint looking back she’s all done crying
She tells the band to turn it up loud
The way she’s dancing’s gonna draw a crowd

Can’t keep a woman like that down
Now just stand back and watch her turn it around

She won’t be lonely long
A couple more shots and a couple sad songs
She’ll pick up the pieces
She’ll start to smile
A girl like that will drive all the boys wild
He’ll be wishing he never did her wrong
She won’t be lonely long

She won’t be sitting at home waiting by the phone
No, she’s moving on

She won’t be lonely long
A couple more shots and a couple sad songs
She’ll pick up the pieces
She’ll start to smile
A girl like that will drive all the boys wild
He’ll be wishing he never did her wrong
She won’t be lonely long

Favorite
(Brian Leighton)

I’ve been thinking ‘bout you every day
Was wondering if there was anything
I could say to make you stay

If I haven’t been warm enough
Maybe now’s the time you need to hear me say
Come and get your love

If you want it, baby come and get it
Cause if you get it
Maybe you will want me again

I know I know I used to be your favorite
I know I know that faded away
Come on hang on I think we’re going to make it
It won’t be long ‘til I will be your favorite again

Sooner than later we will have to know
If this relationship is gonna grow
Into something beautiful

It don’t really matter when
All I care about is finding time to get back
What we’ve always been

If you want it, baby come and get it
Cause if you get it
Maybe you will want me again

I know I know I used to be your favorite
I know I know that faded away
Come on hang on I think we’re going to make it
It won’t be long ‘til I will be your favorite again

Close Enough for Me
(Henry Lee Summer)

I was waiting for the fireworks
Bright lights stars in my eyes
I was waiting for the sky to open
Come a trance, hypnotize
But that aint happenin’
And it’s plain to see
But I can say sincerely
It’s close enough for me
Close enough for me

Day all day night all night
I work so hard to treat you right
Sweet surrender, harmony
Hand in hand eternally
Well, that aint the picture
But it’s plain to see
I can say sincerely
It was close enough for me
Close enough for me

Oh close enough for me
Oh close enough for me

That aint the picture
But it’s plain to see
I can say sincerely
It was close enough for me
Close enough for me
Was it close enough for you
Close enough for me

What Happened
(Brian Leighton, Richard Fleming)

I been starin’ out my window
It’s another cold and lonely dawn
Leaving teardrops on my pillow
Every night and day since you’ve been gone

Obviously, there must be
A reason why you had to go
Honestly it aint clear to me
Don’t you think I have a right to know

What happened
I turned around and you were out the door
What happened
Tell me what I should be sorry for
Whatever happened
I won’t let it happen anymore

Momma looked and said my goodness
What’s that woman doing to you son
She’s got you beggin’ for forgiveness
And you don’t even know what you’ve done

Girl I’ve tried, but you won’t confide
Tell me have you found someone new
Time goes by and I wonder why
But I never had a clue

What happened
I turned around and you were out the door
What happened
Tell me what I should be sorry for
Tell me what happened
I won’t let it happen anymore

Obviously, there must be
A reason why you had to go
Honestly it aint clear to me
Don’t you think I have a right to know

What happened
I turned around and you were out the door
What happened
Tell me what I should be sorry for
Tell me what happened
I won’t let it happen anymore

Twisted
(Brian Leighton, Clay Mills, Stephanie Lewis)

Is it Saturday or Sunday cause I don’t know
Can’t blame it on the whiskey
Can’t blame it on the smoke
Half of me is in Heaven the other in Hell
Might be going crazy but I just can’t tell

She got me Twisted
All torn up
There’s nothin’ I won’t do for her sweet sweet love
I’m addicted, can’t get enough
She’s got me twisted

She got me walkin’ her dog
And waxing her car
Taking long walks and countin’ the stars
Ever since I met her I ain't been myself
My friends say I should see someone
And get some help

She got me Twisted
All torn up
There’s nothin’ I won’t do for her sweet sweet love
I’m addicted, can’t get enough
She’s got me twisted

She’s in my head, she’s under my skin
I don’t know who I am or where I’ve been

She got me Twisted
All torn up
There’s nothin’ I won’t do for her sweet sweet love
I’m addicted, can’t get enough
She’s got me twisted
All torn up
There’s nothin’ I won’t do for her sweet sweet love
I’m addicted, can’t get enough
She’s got me twisted

Wings Workin’ Overtime
(Brian Leighton, Clay Mills)

I was born in a hurry
With trouble not far behind
I was always pushing the edge
Always crossing some line
I never thought a woman’s love
Would change a man like me
All I can say
Is man it’s a good thing

Cause who knows where I’d be today
All alone or in a grave, yeah there
But for the grace of her go I
She must have wings workin’ overtime

I do my best to be the man she sees in me
Don’t know where she gets
The patience that she needs
Every time I get it right
Must be two times I get it wrong
Don’t know what it is
That keeps her hanging on

Cause who knows where I’d be today
All alone or in a grave yeah there
But for the grace of her go I
I swear sometimes I can’t stay out of my own way
The things I do the things I say, but still
She keeps on tryin’
She must have wings workin’ overtime

Who knows where I’d be today
All alone or in a grave yeah there
But for the grace of her go I
I swear sometimes I can’t stay out of my own way
The things I do the things I say, but still
She keeps on tryin’
She must have wings workin’ overtime

Monday’s Love
(Brian Leighton, Richard Fleming)

Well I’ve had that Friday fever
I danced with every girl I knew
As my temperature grew higher
That’s when she’d say we’re through

On Saturday I’d find another
Sunday morning we’d be done
So tired of all these changing partners
I’m looking for Monday’s love

Monday’s love is tried and true
It never turns its back on you
When you’re down, down and out
Monday’s love is what loves about
Any fool can fall when the weekend comes
But what I want is Monday’s love

Now I stop and smell the roses
Now I walk instead of run
Every day I’m getting closer
I’m closin’ in on Monday’s love

Any fool can fall when the weekend comes
But what I want is Monday’s love

There’ll be no more pretendin’
Girl it’s never ending
Monday’s love was meant to last

Monday’s love is tried and true
It never turns its back on you
When you’re down, down and out
Monday’s love is what loves about
Any fool can fall when the weekend comes
But what I want is Monday’s love
Monday’s love

If I Ever Lost You
(Brian Leighton, Clay Mills)

Last night we said a lot of things
And I went a little too far
Why do I always push you away
Whenever you get close to my heart

Never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I know I said I didn’t love you
But baby I lied

If I lost my way
I could search for the light
If I lost my faith
I could pray through the night
But I know the truth
Aint a thing I could do
Baby if I ever lost you

What was I thinking, pretending
That I could make it on my own
Pushing us to the brink of goodbye
Man, did I have it all wrong

‘Cause baby you’re the reason
Behind everything I do
You know I wouldn’t last a minute
In a world without you

If I lost my way
I could search for the light
If I lost my faith
I could pray through the night
But I know the truth
Ain't a thing I could do
Baby if I ever lost you

Never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I know I said I didn’t love you
But baby I lied

If I lost my way
I could search for the light
If I lost my faith
I could pray through the night
But I know the truth
Ain't a thing I could do
Baby if I ever lost
Baby If I ever lost you
Baby If I ever lost you

I Got You
(Brian Leighton, Tim James)

Everybody’s been young
Kickin’ it and playin’ it cool
Stealing cars, sneaking into bars
Just playing the fool

Trying to meet the honey’s
Hookin’ up for the night
Talkin’ ‘em in to tryin’ to sin
With all them worn out lines

When I look back, I got to laugh
This is the present and that was the past
There’s one big difference
Between the two
Now I got you

Now I’m all about a walk
Just before the sun goes down
I’d rather watch old movies on the couch
Than go out on the town

I still like margharita’s
Swingin’ on the porch with you
But now I know to take it real slow
Relax and enjoy the view

When I look back, I got to laugh
This is the present and that was the past
There’s one big difference
Between the two
Now I got you

When I look back, I got to laugh
This is the present and that was the past
There’s one big difference
Between the two
When I look back, I got to laugh
This is the present and that was the past
There’s one big difference
Between the two
Now I got you
I got you
I got you
I got you
