Strong Enough

Blackhawk Strong Enough Lyrics
1.Almost A Memory Now

(dale oliver, dave robbins, van stephenson)

She gets her things together
Puts them by the door
She says there's no love here anymore
I'll never be the same if she walks out
But she's almost a memory

Chorus:
Now
Wish i could turn her heart around
I feel so alone and she's not even gone
She's almost a memory now

She hasn't even left but i know she's gone
She never even said where we went wrong
One thing i know without a doubt
She's almost a memory

Repeat chorus

I feel so alone and she's not even gone
She's almost a memory now
She's almost a memory now
Wish i could turn her heart around


2.Any Man With A Heartbeat

(charlie black/layng martine jr.)

I hate to be the jealous kind
But i know i cross over that line sometimes
Don't even wanna let her leave this house
'cause i know the body underneath the blouse

Who's gonna jump right out of their shoes
Hang out of the window for a better view
Whose head is gonna turn walking down that street
Any man with a heartbeat

She says i'm crazy, paranoid
Two emotions i should try to avoid
Yeah it's all in my head, sure it's all my fault
There's no need to worry 'cause after all

Who's gonna whistle from the 14th floor
Trip over each other just to open her door
Who's gonna love her just as much as me
Any man with a heartbeat

Any man with red blood pumpin' through his veins
Any man who's not sound asleep
Any man who's already not six-foot under
Any man with a heartbeat

Any man with red blood pumpin' through his veins
Any man who's not sound asleep
Any man who's already not six-foot under
Any man with a heartbeat

Who's gonna jump right out of their shoes
Hang out of the window for a better view
Whose head is gonna turn walking down that street
Any man with a heartbeat

Who's gonna love her just as much as me
Any man with a heartbeat


3.A Kiss Is Worth A Thousand Words

(henry paul/dave robbins/van stephenson)

We've been up all night trying to figure it out
Trying to make it all make sense
We ain't right and we ain't wrong
We're just on both sides of the fence
We can talk, talk, talk all night
But only thing will make it right

A kiss is worth a thousand words
When nothing else will do
To fix a broken heart i've heard
A kiss is worth a thousand words
A kiss is worth a thousand words

Now you've got your side and i've got mine
But we can't make each other see
We've been round and round
Since the sun went down
Somehow we still disagree
So lay those angry words to rest
Let's do what we do best

A kiss is worth a thousand words
When nothing else will do
To fix a broken heart i've heard
A kiss is worth a thousand words
A kiss is worth a thousand words

Just close your eyes
Dream about me and you
Just hold me tight
And let the love come through

A kiss is worth a thousand words
When nothing else will do
To fix a broken heart i've heard
A kiss is worth a thousand words
A kiss is worth a thousand words


4.Bad Love Gone Good

(henry paul/dave robbins/van stephenson)

Standing at the crossroads
Taking a long look at my life
Wondering where i'd be
If she hadn't done me wrong

My heart's walking on a thin line
A new love is coming on strong
There comes a time
When you just gotta move on

She never really understood me
She tried to take me for all i had
She left me with nothing but heartache
A good love gone bad
But you loved me like she never could
It was a bad love, a bad love gone good

A bad moon's coming over my shoulder
A good love in the pale blue night
I'm holding on to you in a brand new light

I never knew what i was missing
Your love took me by surprise
Locked away inside her prison
Till you opened my eyes
But you loved me, like she never could
It was a bad love, bad love gone good

She never really understood me
She tried to take me for all i had
She left me with nothing but heartache
A good love gone bad
But you loved me like she never could
It was a bad love, a bad love gone good

But you loved me like she never could
It was a bad love, a bad love gone good
A bad love gone good
A bad love gone good


5.Big Guitar

(henry paul, henry gross)

Only one comes 'round every million years
She's a midnight rider on a shooting star
Makes the whole world ring like a big guitar

Well she flagged me down with the devil's sway
It was somewhere down that lost highway
She's a lifeboat on the raging sea
She's the high note in the harmony

She takes away my pain and sorrow
Loves me like there's no tomorrow
This, i can't resist
In my life i realize
I have never known a sweeter kiss
Honey what i missed

Got a piece of heaven right here on earth
And believe me i know what it's worth
She's an island dream on a rainy day
She's a desperado's hideaway

Hey now boys, take a look right here
Only one comes 'round every million years
She's a midnight rider on a shooting star
Makes the whole world ring like a big guitar


6.Cast Iron Heart

(dennis linde)

Go on and cry, but you won't change my mind
Your pain and troubles don't concern me
I gave you my love, but it was not enough
I was just your bridge, and girl you burned me

So don't hand me no hard luck story
Hopin' i'll just fall apart
Remember your the one who left me
With nothin' but this cast iron heart

There was a time when my heart was good and kind
There was no end to what i'd give you
But now i've changed, my world's been rearranged
I've tried but i just can't forgive you

So don't hand me no hard luck story
Hopin' i'll just fall apart
Remember your the one who left me
With nothin' but this cast iron heart

A cast iron heart, it can't show no mercy
A cast iron heart, it can't show no pain
So don't come to me for love and sympathy
'cause there ain't none in this cast iron heart

So don't hand me no hard luck story
Hopin' i'll just fall apart
Remember your the one who left me
With nothin' but this cast iron heart

Cast iron heart


7.Hook, Line, And Sinker

(dennis linde)

The first thing she done when they set her free
From the women's correctional facility
Was to come here askin' me for a reconciliation
She said she'd changed her ways for good
And all she was, was misunderstood
So i did everything i could for her rehabilitation

Hook, line and sinker, i swallowed all of her lies
Hook, line and sinker, she took me for a ride
Just one look at that innocent face
I didn't think twice, i just snapped up the bait
Hook, line and sinker

I helped her get on her feet again
I got her a job out at the dixie inn
I had to swear up and down to them that the girl could be
trusted
Two nights later she cleaned them out
She took my old firebird and headed south
And when the cops came to my house, buddy
Guess who go busted?

Hook, line and sinker, i swallowed all of her lies
Hook, line and sinker, she took me for a ride
Just one look at that innocent face
I didn't think twice, i just snapped up the bait
Hook, line and sinker

When she told me how lonely she had been
I should have seen she was only reelin' me in
Hook, line and sinker

Just one look at that innocent face
I didn't think twice, i just snapped up the bait
Hook, line and sinker

I swallowed all of her lies
Hook, line and sinker

She took me for a ride
Hook, line and sinker
Hook, line and sinker


8.I'm Not Strong Enough To Say No

(r.j. lange)

The sign says 'do not touch' - you're out of bounds
You're forbidden fruit, don't come around
It says don't make plans 'cause on your hand
Is a promise made to another man

'cause when you're around my defenses go down
Feelings get stronger, looks get longer
The closer you come, the weaker i get
If it ain't happened now, just ain't happened yet

Chorus:
So please, please, please go
I'm not strong enough to say no
Please, please don't stay
I'm not man enough to walk away
Please, please pass by
I can't resist you even though i try
So please go, i'm not strong to say no

The sign says 'slow down-slippery ice'
You got dangerous curves, don't think twice
It says, 'not for sale,' your spoken for
Just take your heart and walk out the door

'cause when you're around my defenses go down
Feelings get stronger, looks get longer
The closer you come, the weaker i get
If it ain't happened now, just ain't happened yet

Repeat chrous

Don't say i didn't warn you, don't say you didn't know
Don't wait 'til it's too late and then try to go
The closer you come, the weaker i get
If it ain't happened now, just ain't happened yet
I'm beggin' you

Repeat chorus


9.King Of The World

(jeff black)

High on a hill
The valley below me
The blue sky above me
My dream was so real
I could not hear
The hum of the highway
Or the drums of the foundry
Pounding out steel

Chorus:
I didn't need no money
I didn't need no time
I didn't need nothing but my own piece of mind

And you know that
A voice like a whisper is bound to be heard
For just one moment
I'm the king of the world
For just one moment
I'm the king of the world

So i close my eyes
I let the power defeat me
Because the real world can't free me
From this dirty old town
Where the four winds blow
I sent my troubles rollin'
And since the world just kept on turnin'
I let it go round

Repeat chorus

Where the four winds blow
I sent my troubles rollin'
And since the world just kept on turnin'
I let it go round

Repeat chorus

I'm the king of the world


10.Like There Ain't No Yesterday

(walt aldridge, mark narmore)

I've been livin' my life like a man in chains
Ever since she took her love away
But this is now and that was then
And baby all bad things gotta come to an end

Chorus:
So tonight i'm throwing caution into the wind
Getting down to the business of living again
Back in the saddle and i'm holding the reins
Gonna find someone and love her
Like there ain't no yesterday

Now, it's dark as a dungeon down where i've been
And there ain't no way i'm going back again
I've got my best foot forward on to greener grass
'cause there ain't no future living in the past

Repeat chorus

Out of the ashes, alive and free
No longer a slave to a memory
Got the rest of my life right out in front of me

Repeat chorus
