I Think About You

Collin Raye I Think About You Lyrics
1.I Think About You

Lyrics:Don Schlitz/Steve Seskin
Music:Don Schlitz/Steve Seskin

Everytime I see a woman on a billboard sign
I think about you
Saying 'drink this beer and you'll be mine'
I think about you
When an actress on a movie screen
Plays Lolita in some old man's dreams
It doesn't matter who she is
I think about you

When I see a pretty woman walking down the street
I think about you
Men look her up and down like she's some kind of treat
I think about you
She wouldn't dare talk to a stranger
always has to be aware of the danger
it doesn't matter who she is
I think about

Chorus:
You eight years old
big blue eyes and a heart of gold
when I look at this world, I think about
You and I can't help but see
that every woman used to be
Somebody's little girl, I think about you

Everytime I hear people say it's never gonna change
I think about you
Like it's some kind fo joke, some kind of game
I think about you
When I see a woman on the news
who didn't ask to be abandoned or abused
it doesn't matter who she is
I think about

Chorus

When I look at this world I think about you


2.Not That Different

Written:Karen Taylor-Good/Joie Scott

She said we're much too different
We're from two separate worlds
And he admitted she was partly right
But in his heart's defense he told her
What they had in common
Was strong enough to bond them for life
He said look behind your own soul
And the person that you'll see
Just might remind you of me

I laugh, I love, I hope, I try
I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry
And I know you do the same things, too
So we're really not that different, me and you

She could hardly argue
With his pure and simple logic
But logic never could convince a heart
She had always dreamed of loving someone more exotic
And he just didn't seem to fit the part
So she searched for greener pastures
But never could forget
What he whispered when she left

I laugh, I love, I hope, I try
I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry
And I know you do the same things, too
So we're really not that different, me and you

Was it time or was it truth
Maybe both lead her back to his door
As her tears fell at his feet
She didn't say 'I love you'
What she said meant even more

I laugh, I love, I hope, I try
I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry
And I know you do the same things, too
So we're really not that different, me and you


3.On The Verge

Lyrics:Hugh Prestwood
Music:Hugh Prestwood

Well they shouldn't have played that good
I got carried away and let the music go to my head
Well she shouldn't have worn that dress
The way it curled around when she was spinning
Just killed me dead

My heart began to tell my body and my soul
That it had gotten in the mood to lose control

Chorus
Oh no, when did neon light turn into moonglow
When did that jukebox turn to a rainbow
I'm about to give into this urge
One more slow dance with her arms around me
One more long glance and nothing will slow me down
I got no chance, if I'm not in love I'm on the verge

All I wanted to be was cool
It ain't my style to overheat, much less burn
But as we floated across the floor
All at once I flashed right past the point, of no return

And when we said goodnight the sun was on the rise
And any stars that hadn't set had fallen in my eyes

CHORUS


4.One Boy, One Girl

Written:Mark Alan Springer/Shaye Smith

He finally gave in to his friend's girlfriend
When she said, 'there's someone you should meet'
At a crowded restaurant way cross town
He waited impatiently
When she walked in their eyes met
and they both stared
And right there and then everyone else disappeared but

Chorus:
One boy, one girl, two hearts beating wildly
To put it mildly it was love at first sight
He smiled, she smiled, and they knew right away
This was the day they'd waited for all their lives
And for a moment the whole world revolved
Around one boy and one girl

In no time at all they were standing there
In the front of a little church
In front of their friends and family
Repeating those sacred words
Preacher said, 'son kiss your bride'
and he raised her veil
Like the night they met time just stood still

Repeat Chorus

He was holding her hand when the doctor looked up and grinned
'congratulations, twins'

Repeat Chorus


5.Sweet Miss Behavin'

Lyrics:Kostas/Wally Wilson
Music:Kostas/Wally Wilson

Sweet miss behavin'
Honey now is it true
You got the whole town talkin'
About the things you do
They say you're trouble
But trouble never looked so good
Are you miss behavin'
Or a little miss understood

You like to dance
You like to flirt
Shake and shimmy
In your mini skirt
You're leading me on
To an early grave
Honey won't you please behave

Sweet miss behavin'
Honey now it ain't right
If you're miss behavin'
With anyone but me tonight

Well you caused the train
To jump the track
You just kept goin'
And you never looked back
You show no mercy
Got no shame
Honey won't you please behave

Sweet miss behavin'
Honey now it ain't right
If you're miss behavin'
With anyone but me tonight

Sweet miss behavin'
Honey let's do it right
We'll go miss behavin'
Together tonight

Let's go miss behavin' tonight


6.Heart Full Of Rain

Lyrics:Hugh Prestwood
Music:Hugh Prestwood

I believe I've attempted every move that I know
I was sure that by now you'd have let yourself go
I've been living my heart out, and without any shame
gotten down on my knees just to kindle this flam

But tonight I am down to the wire
I've been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lt of smoke but no fire
'Cause you got a heart full of rain

Now somewhere in your history there's a reason or two
Why you won't let a body get close to you
Why the truth that I whisper always sounds like a lie
Why you're drowning inside from the tears you don't cry

But your eyes have never been dryer
And you smile like you're felling no pain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'Cause you got a heart full of rain

I had hoped I could open the heart that you hide
'Cause it sure needs a little sunshine inside

But tonight I am down to the wire
I've been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
'Cause you got a heart full of rain


7.What If Jesus Comes Back Like That

Lyrics:Pat Bunch/Doug Johnson
Music:Pat Bunch/Doug Johnson

He came to town on an old freight train
He jumped off in the puring rain
Everybody says he's insane
Just a low down account hobo

He made his bed beneath the county bridge
The town folks said that's not his
They signed a petition they're gonna get rid
Of that white trash low down no count

What if Jesus comes back like that
On an old freight train in a hobo hat
Will we let him in or turn our back
What if Jesus comes back like that
Hey what if Jesus comes back like that

Born with a habit of drug abuse
She couldn't help what her mama used
It wasn't like she got to choose
Now she's layin' there all alone

Got a monkey on her back
Nurses say they never saw a smile like that
Doctor says she might stand a chance
If somebody takes her home

What if Jesus comes back like that
Two months early and hooked on crack
Will we let him in or turn our back
What if Jesus comes back like that
Oh what if Jesus comes back like that

Nobody said life is fair
We've all got a cross to bear
When it gets a little hard to care
Just think of Jesus hanging there

He came to town on a cold dark night
A single star was his only light
The baby born that silent night
A manger for his bed

What if Jesus comes back like that
Where will he find out hearts are at
Will he let us in or turn his back
Hey what if Jesus comes back like that
Yeh what if Jesus comes back like that
Will he cry when he sees where our hearts are at
Will he let us in or turn his back
Hey what if Jesus comes back like that
Oh what if Jesus comes back like that


8.The Time Machine

Lyrics:Gary Burr
Music:Gary Burr

He circled and stared
Nervous and scared
He knew both the thrill and the cost
But he didn't think twice
This amazing device
Was his last chance to see what he'd lost
If time is really a river
And upstream's where he needed to be
He set his sights on the past
Finished his glass
And went back in history

To the casual eye it's a bar stool
But it's really much more than it seems
A few drinks and then
She'll be with him again
As he sits on the time machine

Like all pioneers
He swallowed his fears
And watched the whole room fade to black
He's dying to go
But he's no fool, he knows
How hard it will be to come back
But tonight he's tired of the lonely
And tomorrow will not be the cure
So he'll just slip away
Find yesterday
And spend one more night with her

Now as far as these customers can tell
He's just one more fool who talks to himself
But every man in this place would line up
If they knew what that seat really was (but)

To the casual eye it's a bar stool
But it's really much more than it seems
A few drinks and then
She'll be with him again
As he sits on the time machine

Just a few drinks and then
She'll be with him again
As he sits on the time machine


9.I Love Being Wrong

Written:Billy Kirsch/John Jarrard

I was absolutely certain
I'd made up my mind
I'd never fall for you
Not in this lifetime
You said I was mistaken
I'd be yours in the end
I never thought it could happen
But baby you win

And I love being wrong when it feels like it feels tonight
I'd a whole lot rather be here in your arms than be right
Now that we're together, wish I hadn't waited so long
I'm finding out how much I love being wrong

Under normal circumstances
I think I know my stuff
But the rules all change
When it comes to love
It's the last thing I expected
Now it's all that I want
Just in case you're feeling guilty
Baby don't

'Cause I love being wrong when it feels like it feels tonight
I'd a whole lot rather be herein your arms than be right
Now that we're together, wish I hadn't waited so long
I'm finding out how much I love being wrong


10.I Volunteer

Written:Will Robinson/Larry Boone/Tammy Hyler

Looks like your feelin' like
The rain won't ever stop
Life's left you standing there
One against the odds
Fro now on you need to know
You don't have to stand alone

When the world turns you in circles
And the wind is at your face
When you need somewhere to run to
I know a place
If you want someone who's willing
To lay down their heart
Someone to dry your tears
I'm here
I volunteer

A shoulder, a caring voice
To tell you it's ok
Arms meant for holding you
Whenever your afraid
I've got that and more to spare
Just say the word and I'll be there

When the world turns you in circles
And the wind is at your face
When you need somewhere to run to
I know a place
If you want someone who's willing
To lay down their heart
Someone to dry your tears
I'm here
I volunteer


11.Love Remains

Lyrics:Jim Daddario/Tom Douglas
Music:Jim Daddario/Tom Douglas

We are born one fine day
Children of God on our way
Mama smiles daddy cries
Miracle before their eyes
They protect us til' we're of age
Through it all love remains

Boy moves and takes a bride
She stands faithful by his side
Tears and sweat they build a home
Raise a family of their own
They share joy they share pain
Through it all love remains

Kingdoms come and go they don't last
Before you know the future is the past
In spite if what's been lost
What's been gained we are
Living proof love remains

I don't know baby what I'd do
On this earth without you
We all live we all die
We don't know the reason why
In the end nothing's changed
Life goes on love remains
In the end it stays the same
Life goes on love remains
