1.Beautiful Goodbye

It's like the most amazing sunset you've ever seen
There's never another quite the same
It just falls into some deep eternal sea
Like the end of a movie that makes you cry
You're sad when it's over but you're glad you had
That moment that moved you deep inside

Beautiful goodbye, baby goodbye
I enjoyed the ride, we really had us a time
It's a strange kind of high
A beautiful goodbye

An standin' here watchin' you drive away
We were so grown up about it all
But how will it look in the light of day?
I miss you already but don't turn around
It's funny how you know when it just won't work
And how letting go can echo the sweetest sound

Beautiful goodbye, baby goodbye
I enjoyed the ride, we really had us a time
It's a strange kind of high
A beautiful goodbye

So ironic, and so confusing
To do the right thing and be losing
I'm always stuck with choosing
And ain't that just like life?
Hey yeah, hey yeah

Beautiful goodbye, baby goodbye
I enjoyed the ride, we really had us a time
It's a strange kind of high
A beautiful goodbye

Goodbye, yeah
Na na nan na nan na, goodbye


2.Just One Of Those Days

I'm sittin' in this traffic jam
'cause I took so long to find my keys
And left the house fifteen minutes late
Puttin' on my makeup in the rearview
Dropped mascara on my white pants
When I slammed on the breaks

My cell phone ring that call that I'd been waiting for
But my hands were occupied
I think I might as well accept
Right here and now
Today might not be one of those in which I hit my stride

I don't know why I just can't
Get it all together sometimes
But I not one to whine
I'll just keep holdin' on this roller coaster ride
It's really comin' down on my parade
It's just one of those days

Left me check card on the counter
Got no cash so much for lunch
I got a caffeine buzz from tryin' to stay alive
And my boyfriends got his ex
And I ran into her today of course how perfect
She was dressed up to the nines

The elevator shaft is where my key's are now
Don't ask me how but I'm stuck at work
'Til I find the maintenance man
He'll be so proud to help
But he won't smell too good this time of day
Especially without that hot beer in his hand

I don't know why I just can't
Get it all together sometimes
But I not one to whine
I'll just keep holdin' on this roller coaster ride
It's really comin' down on my parade
It's just one of those days

Hey yeah

I'm not one to whine
I'll just keep holdin' on the roller coaster ride
It's really comin' down on my parade
It's just one of those days
Just one of those days
It's just one of those days


3.Half A Heart Tattoo

She was touching up her makeup
I was standing next in line
I couldn't help but notice
'Neath those powder room lights
It was China red outlined in black
On the left side of her shoulder
In plain view
I just had to ask,"Hey, what's with that half heart tattoo?"

She glanced at me through the mirror
And started to laugh
She said,"I know this looks funny but there is another half
And it's China red outlined in black on the right side of his
shoulder
Last I knew
Yeah somewhere out there is a match to this
Half a heart tattoo"

"Well that last I heard some redhead
Caught his eye in New Orleans
And before that it was a blonde in Baton Rouge
I know there's at least a dozen gals out sporting one of these
Thinking that they're the only fool
That he left with a hear tattoo"

Well girl you get my symphony
I knew a guy like that
I said,"You ain't gonna believe this"
Then I pulled my jacket back
"Yeah it's China red outlined in black on the left side of my
shoulder
Still fairly new
I guess there's just a whole mess of us
With a half a heart tattoo"

Well the last I heard he moved in
With some dancer from L.A.
But I'm betting that won't last a week or two
He loves them long enough to leave his mark
And he's so good they never have a clue
'Til they're stuck with a half a heart tattoo
So ladies make sure that guy standing next to you
Ain't wearing no half a heart tattoo


4.This Far Gone

I've been driving and I've been thinking
For at least a hundred miles
And I'm seeing a lot of things I never saw before
For the first time leaving you doesn't feel quite so wrong
But then again I've never been this far gone

Well I was running flat on empty
Running scared for quite some time
So afraid of what I might do if I stopped ,oh yeah
But I did and I can't believe
I'm back on the highway and not on the phone
But then again I've never been this far gone

All the other times my heart turned me around
But this time I'm not going back
I'm way past that point now

You know I never really thought
I could make it on my own
But then again I've never been this far gone
Oh then again I've never been this far gone


5.Get Yourself Back

Julie called me up at work
She said she finally dumped that jerk for good
And now the weddings off
She said she's gonna keep the ring
And maybe even hook that thing for cash
And go blow it all

And it's alright, yeah
Baby it's alright
To let yourself go hey you gotta know
I'm alright with that
It's alright, yeah
Baby it's alright
To let yourself go just as long as you know
How to get yourself back

Eight hours later here we are
I quit counting all the bars that we
Had been tearing through
Yeah Julie went a little nuts
And I was right there with her but hey that's
What good friends do

And it's alright, yeah
Baby it's alright
To let yourself go hey you gotta know
I'm alright with that
It's alright, yeah
Baby it's alright
To let yourself go just as long as you know
How to get yourself back

I say if you're good at landing
Go ahead and fly
It's gonna be alright

And it's alright, yeah
Baby it's alright
To let yourself go hey you gotta know
I'm alright with that
It's alright, yeah
Baby it's alright
To let yourself go just as long as you know
How to get yourself back

Let yourself go just as long as you know
How to get yourself back, yeah


6.All Those Yesterdays

They say you can't hold on
To time when it's gone
But somehow I've saved
All those yesterdays

And they're bittersweet
Every memory
Back when we both made
All those yesterdays

Threads of hope and sorrow
Wind around our hearts
While we're waiting for tomorrow
It's all those yesterdays
That make us who we are

Just know I won't forget
The laughter or regrets
No, you're never far away
You're all those yesterdays

Threads of hope and sorrow
Wind around our hearts
While we're waiting for tomorrow
It's all those yesterdays
That make us who we are

They say you can't hold on
To time when it's gone
But somehow I have saved
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays
Baby it's ok I have
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays


7.Travis

You were born between a rock and a hard place
To a couple of losers
I lived on the other side of your duplex
I heard you getting those bruises
I never would've wanted to walk in your shoes
It scared me to death, I was a kid too
Sometimes I think about you

Travis are you out there somewhere
Searching for somebody to care
Are you doing the same thing
That your daddy did to you
Wish I could have helped you somehow
Wonder if it's just too late now
Saw your pain, how come nobody
Seemed to have a clue
Is your world still black and blue
Travis, Travis

Did you follow in your mama's footsteps
Strung out on bad things
Just a product of circumstances
Never taught what love means
Travis I hope you did it different this time
All you had to do was make up your mind
Well, how did you decide to live your life

Travis are you out there somewhere
Searching for somebody to care
Are you doing the same thing
That your daddy did to you
Wish I could have helped you somehow
Wonder if it's just too late now
Saw your pain, how come nobody
Seemed to have a clue
Is your world still black and blue
Travis, Travis

And the circle goes round
Until someone hears the sound
Of a breaking heart

Wish I could have helped you somehow
Wonder if it's just too late
Saw your pain, how come nobody
Seemed to have a clue
Is your world still black and blue
Travis, Travis, Travis, Travis, Travis


8.One Little Word

Sometimes it seems like we're just
Going nowhere
Sometimes it feels like you don't care
I threw up my hands and say
It's just too hard and then

One little word, one little touch
One little look can mean so much
Baby, you get me to believe
In everything we can be
You don't know what it's worth
Oh to hear one little word

Sometimes it seems like you're so far away
There's nothing left for us to say
Just when I think our love don't live here anymore

One little word, one little touch
One little look can mean so much
Baby, you get me to believe
In everything we can be
You don't know what it's worth
Oh to hear one little word

You gotta talk to me baby
You gotta let me know
You're still in this with me
We've got a long way to go
Oh yeah

Oh yeah on e little word, one little touch
One little look can mean so much
Baby you got to believe
In everything we can be
One little word, one little touch
One little look can mean so much
Baby you got me to believe
In everything we can be
You don't know what it's worth
To hear one little word yeah
Hear one little word yeah yeah
Hear one little word


9.It Isn't Just Raining

The first I heard you close in my arms
I was sure that our love could survive any storm
I wish I could say I still felt the same
And what's causing these blues is only the rain
But

It isn't just raining
It's really coming down
The sun's not just hiding
It can't be found
And I'm more then just lonely
Tonight while you're running 'round
It isn't just raining
It's really coming down

Each time I look out for a sigh this will pass
All I see are tears on my face in the glass
'Cause you're out with her and I'm here alone
When you get back this time I'll be gone 'cause

It isn't just raining
It's really coming down
The sun's not just hiding
It can't be found
And I'm more then just lonely
Tonight while you're running 'round
It isn't just raining
It's really coming down

It isn't just raining
It's really comin' down


10.Baby I Was Wrong

I know I come across
A little hard headed sometimes
'Cause I hate to admit it
When I'm not right
You never dreamed you'd live to see this day
You'll wanna hear what I'm about to say
I learn something tonight that I can't deny

Yeah I loved you so much before
Never thought my love could grow even more
And get stronger as we went along
Baby, I was wrong

How could I make such a big mistake
I should have known
Back then a love that good
Would be this great

How could I make such a big mistake
It's easy now to see how
Love that good could be this great

Yeah I loved you so much before
Never thought my love could grow even more
And get stronger as we went along
Baby, I was wrong

Yeah I loved you so much before
Never thought my love could grow even more
And get stronger as we went along
Baby, I was wrong

Baby I was wrong, yeah
I was wrong
Baby I was wrong


11.Simply Yours

You're not one to lose your cool
Almost nothin' rattles you
Oh but it comes to love
Boy you think too much

When those little doubts arise
You over analyze
Don't know why you wanna complicate if for
'Cause baby I'm simply yours

Nothin' to explain
It's as natural as the way
I smile when you walk in the room
It's the heart not the mind
And I don't think you'll find
A scientific answer to soon

I guess it's just like a man
To find some logic if he can
Well I could try to make it into more
But baby I'm simply yours

Nothin' to explain
It's as natural as the way
I smile when you walk in the room
It's the heart not the mind
And I don't think you'll find
A scientific answer to soon

You're not one to lose your cool
Almost nothin' rattles you
'Cause baby I'm simply yours
