Collin Raye Super Hits Lyrics
1.Little Rock

Lyrics:Tom Douglas
Music:Tom Douglas

I know I've disappeared a time or two
Along the way I lost me and you
I needed a new town for my new start
I'm sellin' VCRs in Arkansas at a Walmart

I haven't had a drink in 19 days
My eyes are clear and bright with-out that haze
I like the preacher from the Church of Christ
I'm sorry that I cried when I talked to you last night

I think I'm on a roll
Here in Little Rock
I'm solid as a stone
Wait and see
I got just one small problem
Here in Little Rock
Without you
Baby I'm not me
Without you
Baby I'm not me

I don't know why I held it all inside
You must've thought I never even tried
You know your daddy told me when I left
Jesus would forgive, but a daddy don't forget

Lyin' here upon this motel bed
Thoughts of you explode within my head
Like a castle built upon the sand
I let love crumble in my hand


2.In This Life

Lyrics:Mark Reid/Allen Shawblin
Music:Mark Reid/Allen Shawblin

For all I've been blessed with in this life
There was an emptiness in me
I was imprisoned by the power of gold
But one honest touch could set me free

Let the world stop turnin'
Let the sun stop burnin'
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart
I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life, I was loved by you

For every mountain I have climbed
Every raging river crossed
You were the treasure that I'd longed to find
Without your love I would be lost

Let the world stop turnin'
Let the sun stop burnin'
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart
I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life, I was loved by you

In this life, I was loved by you


3.My Kind Of Girl

Written:Debi Cochran/John Jarrard/Monty Powell

When I saw you buying Cosmo and a Hot Rod magazine
I said to myself now there's a girl for me
And when I asked you to go for a ride
You stole my heart when you said if I can drive
I said how 'bout some music, you said, you got any Merle?
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl

And when we started talking I could not believe my ears
You said you were a Braves fan even through the rotten years
You quoted William Faulkner and Martin Luther King
You said your favourite movie star would always be James Dean
And when we went to dinner you wore blue jeans with your pearls
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl

Yeah you march to the beat of a different drum
The funny thing is that I hear the same one
We both like to color outside of the lines
We're peas in a pod, girl we're two of a kind

Yeah you march to the beat of a different drum
The funny thing is that I hear the same one
We both like to color outside of the lines
We're two peas in a pod, girl we're two of a kind

I said I think I love you, you said what's not to love
I thought about a kiss but I wasn't quick enough
I guess while I was thinking you were reading my mind
'Cause you wrapped your arms around me and you pressed your lips
to mine
You sent my head spinning like a Tilt-a-Wheel
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl

You sent my head spinning like a Tilt-a-Wheel
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl
My kind my kind of girl
My kind of girl
My kind my kind of girl
You're my kind of girl
My kind my kind of girl
My kind of girl
My kind my kind of girl


4.That Was A River

Written:Susan Longacre/Rick Giles

I've seen that look before
Here comes that doubt again
You think that girl we saw
Was more than just a friend
Yes, there was a time
I thought she had it all
She meant the world to me
Back when the world was small

That was a river, this is the ocean
That never carried this much emotion
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
That was a river, this is the ocean

The love we had before
Can never change this one
We're not imprisoned by
The past we've brought along
It's just you and me
One ship in the night
There are no boundaries
There is no end in sight

That was a river, this is the ocean
That never carried this much emotion
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
That was a river, this is the ocean

Nothing compares to this deep devotion
That was a river, this is the ocean
That was a river, this is the ocean


5.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


6.I Can Still Feel You

Lyrics:Kim Tribble/Tammy Hyler
Music:Kim Tribble/Tammy Hyler

It's that feeling that someone
Is standing behind me
And I turn around and there's no one there
And it's the sensation
That someone just whispered
Yeah and I still hear your voice but you're not really here
Your memory is like a ghost
And my heart is it's host

I can still feel you just as close as skin
Every now and then
All by myself, in a crowded room, or my empty bed
There's a place you've touched
With your love no one gets close to
I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel
you, I can still feel you

You said you'd love me forever
Then you said it's over
And left me without the missing link
I thought I'd forget you
But I guess I forgot to
And lately I've been too confused to think
When I reach for someone new
It's like I'm touching you

I can still feel you just as close as skin
Every now and then
All by myself, in a crowded room, or my empty bed
There's a place you've touched
With your love no one gets close to
I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel
you, I can still feel you

In everything that moves
In everything I do

I can still feel you just as close as skin
Every now and then
All by myself, in a crowded room, or my empty bed
There's a place you've touched
With your love no one gets close to
I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel
you, I can still feel you
Oh I can still feel you


7.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


8.Couldn't Last A Moment

Written:Jeffrey Steele/Danny Wells

I thought it was over
I thought I could move on
But I was wrong
I woke up last night
Calling your name

Feeling the blame baby
Thought I could quit you but
I still miss your love

What was I thinking
Thinking that I could still
Walk down the street
Without you by my side
Or make it through one night
Alone I lied
I said a lot of things
I didn't really mean
How can I make you see
What matters most to me
Girl I shoulda known it
I couldn't last a moment without you

You've got every right
To turn and walk away
I can't make you stay
I broke your heart
I wasted so much precious time baby
I see you with your friends
Wearing a smile again

What was I thinking
Thinking that I could still
Walk down the street
Without you by my side
Or make it through one night
Alone I lied
I said a lot of things
I didn't really mean
How can I make you see
What matters most to me
Girl I shoulda known it
I couldn't last a moment without you

Thought I could quit you
But I still miss your love

What was I thinking
Thinking that I could still
Walk down the street
Without you by my side
Or make it through one night
Alone I lied
I said a lot of things
I didn't really mean
How can I make you see
What matters most to me
Girl I shoulda known it
I couldn't last a moment without you
Oh girl I shoulda known it
I couldn't last a moment
Without you


9.If I Were You

Written:Richard Fagan/Rick Peoples

Well I better tell you upfront you've always been my friend
The kind of woman you found won't come your way again
She's the kind of lady that every man dreams of
Son if you don't treat her right she'll find someone that does

If I were you and she was mine
I'd give her all my lovin' all the time
I'd thank the Lord each morning she wakes up by my side
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine

Well I've never been a preacher and I ain't gonna start
Buddy what you're thinkin' 'bout can tear your world apart
You know that barroom beauty would be better left alone
She can't hold a candle to the girl you got at home

If I were you and she was mine
I'd give her all my lovin' all the time
I'd thank the Lord each morning she wakes up by my side
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine

Now we've been friends for so long and I hope we'll always be
But if she leaves you for someone new that someone might be me

Oh... I'd thank the Lord each morning she wakes up by my side
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine
That's what I'd do if I were you and she was mine


10.Love, Me

Lyrics:Skip Ewing/Max T.Barnes
Music:Skip Ewing/Max T.Barnes

I read a note my grandma wrote back in nineteen twenty-three.
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me. He
said,
'Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago,
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma
so.'

We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together.
Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever.
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead
Of her, I found this letter, and this is what it said:

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.

I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away,
In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years;
But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with
tears.

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
Between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
