First Time For Everything

Little Texas First Time For Everything Lyrics
1.Some Guys Have All The Love

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 1 - time 2:52)

Some guys have all the luck
There's gold in everything they touch
But all of the work i've done
Never did amount to much

I don't live what some call the good life
But i've got a good life with you

Some guys have all the money
Fame and fortune we all dream of
But i thank the stars above me
That i've got you and that's enough
Some guys have all the love

No matter how good my plan is
It always seems to come undone
In a lifetime of takin' chances
You're the only thing i've won

I'm still not what some call a winner
But with you there's no way i can lose

Some guys have all the money
Fame and fortune we all dream of
But i thank the stars above me
That i've got you and that's enough
Some guys have all the love

Well i guess i'm what some call a dreamer
But at least i've had one that came true

Some guys have all the money
Fame and fortune we all dream of
But i thank the stars above me
That i've got you and that's enough
Some guys have all the love
Some guys have all the love
Some guys have all the love


2.First Time For Everything

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 2 - time 4:01)

I don't stay out all night
I don't close down the bars
And i don't make a fool of myself
Well, i don't drink too much
And i don't get too loud
And i don't ever raise too much hell

But there's a first time for everything
Since you said goodbye
There's not much of anything
That i haven't tried
To somehow get over you
There's no tellin' what i might do
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything

I don't call up old flames
'cause i don't have a blackbook
I don't spend all my time in the past
I don't wake up with strangers
'cause i don't sleep around
No i don't believe in love that won't last

But there's a first time for everything
Since you said goodbye
There's not much of anything
That i haven't tried
To somehow get over you
There's no tellin' what i might do
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything

Yeah yeah

When i somehow get over you
There's no tellin' what i might do
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything

Yeah yeah
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah


3.Down In The Valley

(brady seals)
(track 3 - time 2:00)

Well it's six o'clock in the morning
And the sun is on the rise
I been sittin' here drinkin
All through the night
What in the world am i gonna do
Now that i don't have you
Well i ain't able to get you off my mind

Well the grass couldn't be any bluer
You can hear the weepin' willow cry
And the sky has slowly gotten closer
Down in the valley with a rocky mountain high

Well the moon will always climb
Over the top of the hill
The rain will always die
Give it time i know it will
But this storm within my soul
It will never die i know
Nobody will ever know just how i feel

Well the grass couldn't be any bluer
You can hear the weepin' willow cry
And the sky hass slowly gotten closer
Down in the valley with a rocky mountain high

Well the grass couldn't be any bluer
You can hear the weepin' willow cry
And the sky has slowly gotten closer
Down in the valley with a rocky mountain high
Alright


4.You And Forever And Me

(porter howell/stewart harris)
(track 4 - time 3:44)

The moon is off my shoulder
The sun is in my eyes
Almost to my hometown
It's just another mile
Memories surround me
Of an old familar time
Life was simple then
When your love was mine

There's a cool wind
On the desert tonight
I can almost see your golden hair
Flyin' in the moonlight
And ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me

I pull off the highway
On your side of town
Make the turn past the railroad tracks
As the sun goes down
I remember how you would wait
By the front porch light
You were always ready
To take a midnight ride

There's a cool wind
On the desert tonight
I can almost see your golden hair
Flyin' in the moonlight
And ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me

Sometimes love gets lost
And it's never found
But i just had to see
If you're still around

There's a cool wind
On the desert tonight
I can almost see your golden hair
Flyin' in the moonlight
And ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me

Ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me


5.What Were You Thinkin'

(christy dinapoli/porter howell/dwayne o'brien/brady seals)
(track 5 - time 3:23)

So you think i'll be alright
And i'll forget you in time
And i won't want you here with me every night
And we can still be friends once in a while

Think again
'cause maybe you're wrong
How can i just be friends
With someone i've loved for so long

What were you thinkin'
When you turned your back and walked away
Who do you think you're leavin'
Did you think i'd let it end this way
What were you thinkin'

If you're gonna break my heart
You'll have to do it the hard way
And if you're really gonna tear us apart
Can't you think of something better to say

Than you'll always love me
But you need some time
You're only trying tell me goodbye
Stop tryin' to be so kind

What were you thinkin'
When you turned your back and walked away
Who do you think you're leavin'
Did you think i'd let it end this way
What were you thinkin'

I would never want to leave you
But if i were to leave you
I would never leave this way
How could you leave me this way

What were you thinkin'
When you turned your back and walked away
Who do you think you're leavin'
Did you think i'd let it end this way
What were you thinkin'

What were you thinkin'
Baby what were you thinkin'


6.Dance

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 6 - time 2:58)

Take your time and watch your step
You'd better get it right
Or you'll get left behind
The way you're dancin' i can tell
That someone else is on your mind

You'd better dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better hold on to the one that loves you
You'd better turn around before we're through
And dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better dance

And that sparkle in your wanderin' eye
Has struck you blind as far as i can see
Take one step back and look again
You're gonna leave with him
Or stay with me

You'd better dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better hold on to the one that loves you
You'd better turn around before we're through
And dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better dance

Well now we've gone this long
Don't let it slip through your hands

Dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better hold on to the one that loves you
You'd better turn around before we're through
And dance with the one that brung ya

You'd better dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better hold on to the one that loves you
You'd better turn around before we're through
And dance with the one that brung ya
You'd better dance
Yeah


7.Better Way

(brady seals/tommy barnes)
(track 7 - time 3:36)

It's only been a week
But i ain't had no sleep
Since you've been gone

I thought i was strong enough to take it
But i'm too weak to make it on my own

I still curse the day
I let you walk away
That's right where i went wrong

Well i'm losing sanity
I made a fool of me
Now you're gone

There's got to be a better way to lose my mind
Than to sit here thinkin' about you all the time
Listenin' to these sad sad songs
Mixin' memories with old forgotten wine
There's got to be a better way to lose my mind

I could paint circles
'round the rainbows
In the sky

I could wipe away
The shadows of doubt
Weepin' in your eyes

I could even walk on water
And soar were eagles dare to fly
Dare to fly

Or go bathin' in the beauty of my sorrows
On an early mornin' high

There's got to be a better way to lose my mind
Than to sit here thinkin' about you all the time
Listenin' to these sad sad songs
Mixin' memories with old forgotten wine
There's got to be a better way to lose my mind

Listenin' to these sad sad songs
Mixin' memories with old forgotten wine
There's got to be a better way to lose my mind
There's got to be a better way to lose my mind


8.I'd Rather Miss You

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 8 - time 3:58)

I could forget you
I could make new plans
Find someone to help me
Spend this time on my hands
I could pick up the pieces
Even fall in love again
But until i do

I'd rather miss you
And live with the memories
The nights when you held me
Will carry me through
And if i have to choose
Between living without you
And learning to love someone new
Then i'd rather miss you

From the first time i saw you
'til the day we said goodbye
You were the best thing
Ever walked into my life
So i'll just keep waiting
Hoping you'll come back again
But until you do

I'd rather miss you
And live with the memories
The nights when you held me
Will carry me through
And if i have to choose
Between living without you
And learning to love someone new
Then i'd rather miss you

And if i have to choose
Between living without you
And learning to love someone new
Then i'd rather miss you
Then i'd rather miss you
Then i'd rather miss you


9.Just One More Night

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 9 - time 3:32)

Although i know people change
I always thought we could stay the same
Now you wanna be on your own
I'm just someone that you've outgrown
So before you close that door
And say you don't love me anymore
I won't ask you not to leave
But there's one thing i need

Just one more night
A night to remember
Somethin' warm to hold when you're gone
And from now on
If love ever croses my mind
I'll think of you
It's just one more night

This is the night when we forget our love has died
It all fades away as your body touches mine
One more time

Another day is gone
Another night is comin' on
And i'll miss you more
Than the night before

It's just one more night
A night to remember
I remember that night every night since you've gone
And from now on
If love ever crosses my mind
I'll think of you
It's just one more night

It's just one more night
It's just one more night
A night to remember you by
It's just one more night
It's just one more night


10.Cry On

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien/brady seals)
(track 10 - time 3:07)

There's been a chain of tears
That's been a-holdin' me here
'cause you know how much i hate to see you cry

Well before i go
I just wanna let you know
This is the last time that you'll hear me say goodbye

So baby just cry cry on
Well i've done all i can to hold on
You're only gonna find me gone
So baby cry on baby cry on

Every time before
When i was headed for the door
You misty eyes would always make me stay

This hurtin' you
Is somethin' i never wanna do
But you know you can't keep me here this way

So baby just cry cry on
Well i've done all i can to hold on
You're only gonna find me gone
So baby cry on baby cry on

Yeah

Baby just cry cry on
Well i've done all i can to hold on
You're only gonna find me gone
So baby cry on baby cry on

You know you're only gonna find me gone
So baby cry on baby cry on

You can just cry on
Yeah yeah you can just cry on
