It's About Time

Julie Reeves It's About Time Lyrics
1.Trouble Is A Woman

(tim johnson/david malloy/kim williams)

Trouble is a woman with a chip on her shoulder
Swore he loved her and no other
She had a feeling he was lyin'
A woman on a mission no denyin'
Someones gonna have to pay this time
Trouble is a woman with a man on her mind

And when she walked into the room
And saw him with somebody new
She grabbed the arm of a good lookin' guy
She said dance with me
And he could see the fire in her eyes

Trouble is a woman in tight blue jeans
Dancin' too close ya know what that means
Across the room she saw him comin'
Turning over chairs people were runnin'
In the eye of the storm ya just might find
Trouble is a woman with a man on her mind

Two big men standing face to face
One said you've made a big mistake
That's when the fists began to fly
As he hit the floor
She hit the door
Never heard her say goodbye

Trouble is a woman in a 4-wheel drive
On an old dirt road to a brand new life
She ain't hangin' 'round for nothin'
There's a lot more men with a lot more lovin'
Yeah she's gonna get it right this time
Trouble is a woman with a man on her mind

She's gonna get it right this time
Trouble is a woman with a man on her mind


2.Do You Think About Me

(robin lee bruce/christi dannemiller)

Matchbooks and movie stubs
Cards and faded flowers in a box of love
My favorite photograph
Oh i used to tear it up
Just to tape it right back
All these souvenirs of me and you
Makes me wonder what you held onto

Do you think about me
Do you think about me
Do i ever go walkin' through your memory
Do you think about
Do you think about me

Warm nights and country drives
Do you ever stop and think about the first time
I guess somehow we both outgrew that innocent love we fell into
Every now and then the clock unwinds
And you go drifting across my mind
Do you ever smile and think about what used to be

Do you think about
Do you think about me
Do you think about me
Do i ever go walkin' through your memory
Do you think about
Do you think about me


3.Party Down

(p.r. battle/michael garvin/anthony smith)

In the same breath you told me it was over
You said in time i'd find somebody new
And as you walk away i'm sure you wonder
What will i do my first night without you

Party down, celebrate, paint the town, stay out late
No more livin' in a never-ending heartache
Free at last, life is great
Hello world, i can't wait
Oh what will i do without you around
Party down

Forgive me if i don't come up with teardrops
I've already done my cryin' over you
Let me help you take your bags out to the pickup
Cause once you're gone i've got some things to do

I made a vow to always stay with you
But you didn't feel the same
The way you treated me was a shame
Now i'm gonna break these chains
And i know just how i'm gonna do it

Oh what will i do without you around
Party down


4.What I Need

(marv green)

I know if i just keep my distance
You will see what you are missing
And you will learn that no one can love you like i do
I look involved in conversation
But i'm strugglin' with temptation
So tonight as you walk into the room

What i want is to hold you
Cause my world without you is just another lonely place to be
But what i need is to hold out
Until you have no doubt
There's only one love for you and it's me
So i'll be strong 'til you can believe what i need

My impression of what love is comes and goes like your kisses
It's clear as day when i hold you in my arms
Though i'll admit that you're my weakness
I'm gonna fight these feelings
Until you can promise me your heart

What i need is to hold out
Until you have no doubt
There's only one love for you and it's me
So i'll be strong 'til you can believe what i need
What i need


5.All Or Nothing

(michael garvin/michael salacuse/steve siler)

You swear to me that i'm the one
But you need time to have your fun
That boat won't float
How can you say that love is real
When you still want to play the field
That dog won't hunt

You can't have it halfway hon'
It's all or nothing
If you want my loving
You gotta concentrate, dedicate, show it's love you wanna make
That's the only way i'll fall
Cause it's all or nothing

I need a man who's man enough to stand up in the face of love
Commit to it
The kind of man who's not afraid to give my heart an even trade
For him i'll wait

Can you give me what it takes
It's all or nothin' if you want my lovin'
You gotta concentrate, dedicate, show it's love you wanna make
That's the only way i'll fall 'cause it's all or nothin'

No more riding the fence
No more playing it safe
No more waiting till someday
Get into this love or baby get out of the way
It's all or nothing


6.You Were A Mountain

(trey bruce/max t. barnes)

Lost like the best of us can get
Wings with no direction
Tossed over waves of emptiness
Looking glass with no reflection
But at the end of my rope
You came and gave me hope

When i needed faith you were an answered prayer
When i needed life you were a breath of air
When my soul was a desert you were a fountain
And when i needed a rock you were a mountain

Why at the bottom in the dark
Would someone reach out and touch me
Light drove the shadows from my heart
What a way to say you love me
This time i wont lose my way
Holdin' your hand everyday

When my soul was a desert you were a fountain
And when i needed a rock you were a mountain


7.It's About Time

(ed hill/mark d. sanders)

Baby i see your trying to figure out
What this enigma they call love is all about
Oh no i'm no expert on the subject that's for sure
But i'd love to study up
Maybe baby we should buddy up
Cause i'd love to study up with you

It's about time
It's about talkin'
It's about holding hands and walkin'
Up the street and down the beach
Takin' this as far as our hearts will reach
And dreamin' dreams just as big as we can
And did i mention holdin' hands
Well yes i did in the second line
So how 'bout puttin' yours in mine

It's about time
It's about time

Baby i hope that i'm not being too forward
Ain't gonna mention any of those forevermore words
Oh but ain't we had a couple close calls on the telephone late
at night
It's about more of those
Lettin' go and connectin' souls
And gettin' real close to you

It's about time
It's about talkin'
It's about holding hands and walkin'
Up the street and down the beach
Takin' this as far as our hearts will reach
And dreamin' dreams just as big as we can
And did i mention holdin' hands
Well yes i did in the second line
So how 'bout puttin' yours in mine


8.If I'd Never Loved You

(aimee mayo/bob regan)

When he says he'll call me he always does
Brings me flowers just because
He's kind and honest says he's crazy 'bout me
I tell myself this could be a dream come true
If i'd never loved you

If i'd never loved you i'd have nothing to compare this to
I wouldn't know what it's like when it's right and real
Or how deep i could feel
Maybe i could love somebody new
If i'd never loved you

I want that same emotion that we once had
How can i settle after that
He would be good for me would that be enough
I do feel something i could call it love
And that's what i'd do
If i'd never loved you

You made me so happy, so crazy, so alive
You could take me much higher that i'd ever been
I wouldn't keep trying to find that feeling again
If i'd never loved you

I wouldn't know what it's like when it's right and real
Or how deep i could feel
Maybe i could love somebody new
If i'd never loved you


9.Whatever

(chris lindsey/aimee mayo)

You don't call for two whole weeks
Then you think i'm gonna fall at your feet
When you walk thru that door
Like a cloud of dust you just disappear
You've gotta lotta nerve to show up here
At a quarter to four
You think candy and roses are gonna make it better
Whatever

You say you needed time to sort things out
You've been up all night drivin' around and doing some thinkin'
Your shirts untucked and your hairs a mess
I smell whiskey on your breath
But you aint been drinkin'
Now you're telling me that you and i were meant to be together
Whatever

Whatever you say whatever you do
Nothing's gonna change the fact that we're through
You can't take a hint you ain't got a clue
To think that i ever thought that you hung the moon

With your puppy dog eyes your petting my cat
You're just hanging around tryin' to look sad
Oh you're so alone
You wanna watch the sun rise and cook me breakfast
What's it gonna take for you to get the message
You need to go home

You wanna make tonight the first night of forever
You say we can make it through this stormy weather
Do i have to spell it out in ten foot letters
Whatever


10.He Keeps Me In One Piece

(dave loggins)

Well he always knows when i'm runnin' smooth
Yeah he can tell he knows me so well
And when i'm in trouble he's who i'll turn to
Now he's there when i can't stand up alone
He's there when i fall too hard
And i'm not ashamed to call out his name
And say darlin' i need you when i'm fallin' apart

He keeps me in one piece
He is my strength when i tire
He shows me when to be at ease
And when to be on fire

Well i'm a girl well-versed and well rehearsed in the ways of
this world
Still i am not that strong
I have needed so long to be on the road that would lead me to
the love of this boy
Now he's there when i can't be there alone
And he's there when i've gone too far
And i'm not afraid to stand up and say "boy, i love you and i
need you" when i'm fallin' apart


11.What You Get Is What You See

(terry britten/graham lyle)

Some boys have got the look of the greek adonis
Some boy'll try to talk you off your feet
Some boys just think they're god's gift to woman
Some boys just think they're sweet enough to eat

Try to change the habit of a lifetime
Don't even try
Cause when you cut down deeper than the icing you realize

What you get is what you see
There ain't nothing more to it
And if you wanna love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then i don't want your kind of love

Some guys have got lips you can't help kissing
Some guys have gotta smile you can't resist
Some guys just gotta build a reputation
They just wanna add you to the list
You gotta lot of physical attraction i can't deny
But can you guarentee me satisfaction
Well i'm still waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting

So let me see your cards on the table
Before i buy i always read the writing on the label
So give me reason to believe theres more to you than meets the
eye

I don't want your kinda love
It takes a man takes a man
I don't want your kinda love
There ain't nothing else to it


12.If Heartaches Had Wings

(jody alan sweet)

It's three in the morning on a saturday night
The laundry and dishes just ain't worth the fight
Headlights are dancing across the living room wall
And that lone distant highway just echos the hall
Now the babies are sleeping on back in their rooms
And he's been passed out on the sofa since noon
And nobody told her about none of these things
And god only knows she'd leave there if heartaches had wings

If heartaches had wings she would fly
Away like some bird through the night
It's a long long way from a young girl's dream
And she'd surely leave there if heartaches had wings

She grew up believing that wishes come true
A knight on a white horse like some young girls do
So she married her the captain of the school football team
Just like she was supposed to as homecoming queen

She turns out the lights and she lays down in bed
The sounds of that highway still run through her head
She closes her eyes and she whispers those prayers
And falls asleep wondering does anyone care

And god knows she leave there if heartaches had wings
