1.If It Wasn't For Bad
I knew from the first night I met you
Something just wasn't quite right
Loving like an innocent stranger
But something was just out of sight
How could I know that you had used me
Fill out some plan of your own
I could have known you'd abused me
Leave me here hurt and alone
If it wasn't for you I'd be happy
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true
I know that you could be just like you should
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
I only sung what I wanted to sing
You were a dream in my mind
I never know how you never could be
It didn't take long for me to find
I guess that it's mine for foresee
Only what I wanted to see
I couldn't know you would be
A player just acting for me
If it wasn't for you I'd be happy
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true
I know you could be just like you should
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
I knew from the first night I met you
Something just wasn't quite right
Loving like an innocent stranger
But something was just out of sight
If it wasn't for you I'd be happy
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true
I know you could be just like it should
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
2.Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes
You had your grand illusion
And wrestled with your fate
The winter of your discontent
Came twenty years too late
If it was love, and I was there
I've forgotten where it lives
We both stepped off a frozen rock
Onto a burning bridge
You came like an invasion
All bells and whistles blowing
Reaping the rewards
Of the fable you'd been sowing
I saw you cross the landing
Descending marble stairs
Like Caesar crossed the Rubicon
You seemed to walk on air
And yeah I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
You're seven wonders rolled in one
You've shifted gears to cruise
Oh you came to town in Helas!(？)
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh the bellboys are crying
And monies changing hands
Your cloak and dagger legacies
Gone home to No Man's Land
The marquee lights are flickering
Your posters fading fast
Your being here just melts away
Like ice cubes in a glass
And yeah I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
You're seven wonders rolled in one
You've shifted gears to cruise
Oh you came to town in Helas!(？)
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh you came to town in Helas!(？)
And eight hundred dollar shoes

13.Never Too Old - To Hold Somebody( - )
Don't abandon life
Don't step away
Don't give up that tune
That you never could play
If you're folding your tent
And the gas pipes groan
If every bone rattles
Through nights all alone
Well you're tougher than leather
No old burlap sack
Not some hard scrabble weeds
Growing up through the cracks
Don't you know, you're never too old
You're never too old to hold somebody
Don't you know, you're never too old
You're never too old to hold somebody
You're never too old to hold somebody
Don't think you've gone out
Don't flicker and fade
If you're gonna get lemons
Then do what they say
The wind makes you weary
It knocks you around
Logs on the fire
Beats sun shining down
But you're harder than nails
No skinny old tack
You're still sharp as a razor
And I like you like that
Don't you know, you're never too old
You're never too old to hold somebody
Don't you know, you're never too old
You're never too old to hold somebody
You're never too old to hold somebody
I could bet on a horse
But I'm betting on you
You still got what it takes
You got nothing, nothing to prove
Don't you know, you're never too old
You're never too old to hold somebody
Don't you know, you're never too old
You're never too old to hold somebody
You're never too old to hold somebody
