Forever 03:42
She can light you up with a single look She can make you feel like the hero of a book She can make you smile on the worst day ever She can make you talk about forever Forever’s a really long time When you’re searching for that perfect rhyme Well I ain’t searching anymore What else could I be searching for? She can make you feel like a million bucks She can make you start shopping for a tux She can make you wish you were somewhat clever She can make you talk about forever She can make you pray for a better tomorrow She can bring you peace for all of your sorrow She can make you quit using the word never She can make you talk about forever

Woke up early and smiled away For I saw an angel at the dawn of the day She said I love you as she climbed into bed Babe I love you, that’s what she said She made herself right at home in my arms I became acquainted with all of her charms There’s nowhere else I’d rather be instead Babe I love you, that’s what she said Dm This simple love we share C My fingers running through her hair F This is the love I’d been praying for Am G Who could possibly ask for more Holding her close is what my dreams are made of There’s no mistaking that feeling of true love She kissed my shoulder then she laid down her head Babe I love you, that’s what she said This simple love we share My fingers running through her hair This is the love I’d been praying for Who could possibly ask for more Woke up early and smiled away For I saw an angel at the dawn of the day She said I love you as she climbed into bed Babe I love you, that’s what she said

Time and again, time just flies away Time and again, time flies away to play Where does it go, where does it fly to Baby when I’m with you Where does it go, darling it’s true A love like yours I never knew Time and again, time disappears and hides Time and again, time retreats with the tides Where does it go, where does it slide to Baby when I’m with you Where does it go, darling it’s true A love like yours I never true I lose track of it all Every time that I fall In love with you Time will stand still It’s always a thrill To lose track of time with you

Homebound 04:35
I wonder how you are It’s been a while Since I’ve seen you smile I wonder where you are Is there a sky Can you still fly Do you ever think about tomorrow’s call Do you ever have a doubt, if you might fall I hope you found your holy ground I hope you will come back around I hope you are safe and sound I hope you are homebound I pray you’ll find a guiding star A roof to keep you dry A willingness to try I worry you’re too far That you believe a lie Without asking why

It’s a big old world and you wanna see it all Lemme tell you girl, all you gotta do is call I got a travel bag already packed Got a heart full of love for you and that’s a fact Yeah baby, that’s fact It’s a big old world and it’s calling your name Lemme tell you girl I wanna dance oh so close to your flame Got a bottle of bubbly, the seal’s never been cracked Got a heart full of love for you and that’s a fact Yeah baby, that’s a fact Oh you’d better believe, that I’m ready to leave with you Oh you’d better believe, that I cannot conceive of a life without you No there’s not turning back, and baby that’s fact It’s a big old world full of folks who’ve never seen you smile Lemme tell you girl, they’re gonna marvel for a long long while Your eyes smile at me I know it’s never an act Got a heart full of love for you and that’s a fact Yeah baby, that’s fact Oh you’d better believe, that I’m ready to leave with you Oh you’d better believe, that I cannot conceive of a life without you No there’s not turning back, and baby that’s fact It’s a big old world and you wanna see it all Lemme tell you girl, all you gotta do is call I got a travel bag already packed Got a heart full of love and that’s a fact Yeah baby, that’s fact

Some lands they call bad lands Some sand they call quick sand Some lies they call true lies But true love, it never dies Some hands they call bad hands Some stands they call last stands Some guys they call bad guys But true love, it never dies Every act of pain is a step toward the Light Nothing is in vain even in the darkest night There’s a reason for it all There’s a season past the fall Just wait and watch your heart take flight Just wait and watch your heart take flight Some boys they call bad boys Some girls they’re just white noise Some eyes, they call black eyes But true love, it never dies Every act of pain is a step toward the Light Nothing is in vain even in the darkest night There’s a reason for it all There’s a season past the fall Just wait and watch your heart take flight Just wait and watch your heart take flight You can trust the whisper that comes from your heart It’s the loud voices that’ll tear you apart Some lands they call bad lands Some sand they call quick sand Some lies they call true lies But true love, it never dies

There’s always gonna be another song There’s always gonna be right and wrong There’s always gonna be the sound and smell of you There’s always gonna be hearts that are true There’s always gonna be another song There’s always gonna be a reason to be strong There’s always gonna be a season colored blue There’s always gonna be hearts that are true And all the waves you painted in the past They washed away the loves that didn’t last And just as real as God is seated up above Babe I hope you can feel this love There’s always gonna be another song There’s always gonna be a time to sing along There’s always gonna be a Light that can shine through There’s always gonna be hearts that are true

it ain’t all roses and diamonds all the time There are hills that can be tough to climb It ain’t all perfect days and perfect nights When the Devil finds a way to dim your lights It ain’t all loving smiles that rise up to your eyes Sometimes you listen to outright lies It ain’t all happy thoughts dancing in your head When the Devil brings back the painful times instead But i want you to know, that I’m easy to find No you don’t have to go way back or far behind I’m right here by your side With my arms open wide I’m along for the ride It ain’t all fits of laughter that you can’t control Sometimes you get to see the dark side of your soul It ain’t all memories that bring joy to your heart When the Devil is hell-bent on tearing you apart

Too young 03:41
I was too young when you hit the road It wasn’t long before I carried your load And if I could know who you’d be today Not sure I would ever ask you to stay I was too young when my dream came true It wasn’t long before we said I do And if I could do it all over again Not sure I would agree to all this pain But I had Jesus by my side And I prayed more than you lied He is for me, who can be against me Yes I had Jesus in my heart And I prayed he would play your part He is for me, who can be against me My kids are young, the enemy is real I won’t be long, before they hear his appeal And if I could protect them every day Not sure I would always know what to say But I have Jesus by my side And I pray more than the enemy lied He is for me, who can be against me Yes I have Jesus in my soul And I pray he will play your role He is for me, who can be against me

There’s a story my grandma told ‘Bout a man who went looking for gold He left his home and all behind For a gold he’d never find He simply couldn’t trust his eyes He fell for the Devil’s lies So he chose to become blind For a gold he’d never find For a gold he’d never find He had all you can ask from life A home, a job and a loving wife His heart just grew unkind For a gold he’d never find I hear tell he died alone Feet away from a golden throne All that cause he lost his mind For a gold he’d never find
