I Don't Want To Miss A Thing

Mark Chesnutt I Don't Want To Miss A Thing Lyrics
1.I'll Get You Back

Why couldn't i hear the sound of your heart breakin'
Why couldn't i see the mistakes i was makin'
Why didn't i feel the distance in your kiss
Well i can't let you get away with leavin' me like this
I'll get you back, this ain't over yet
Don't know what i'll do but i'll think of somethin'
I'll get you back, you're gonna get
All the love that you've got comin'
I won't give up until i prove
My heart and soul belong to you
Whatever it takes
I'll get you back

Now i'm gonna be the man you've always dreamed of
Love's the only thing i'll let come between us
You still ain't got the best of me
I'll show you my love is true, just you wait and see

I'll get you back, this ain't over yet
Don't know what i'll do but i'll think of somethin'
I'll get you back, you're gonna get
All the love that you've got comin'
I won't give up until i prove
My heart and soul belong to you
Whatever it takes
I'll get you back
Whatever it takes
I'll get you back.


2.I'm Gone

(marv green, rick orozco)

Sittin' at a table conversation
Me and may buddies, i follow what they're sayin'
100% of the daily events
But the minute she walks in my direction
Well there goes my span of attention
One look in her eyes and i'm gone for a ride

Chorus
I'm gone, i'm history, she gets the best of me
My mind drifts away and instantly i'm in another world - wishin'
she was my girl
And nothin' else matters at all, i'm gone like yesterday, to
another time and place
One sweet smile and i got swept away, she gives me just enough
to dream on
And i'm gone

Yeah i been comin' in here for quite some time
I've got it all figured out in my mind, what i wanna say, and
today's the day
Oh here she comes, heart be steady, play it cool, i got the
words ready
She says hello and i away i go

Repeat chorus


3.I Don't Want To Miss A Thing

(dianne warren)

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you
Is a moment i treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you, feeling your heart beating
And i'm wondering what your dreaming
Wondering if it's me your seeing
And then i kiss your eyes, and thank god we're together
I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, i just wanna be with you, right here with you
Just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause i'd miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when i dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And i don't wanna miss a thing


4.Jolie

Well i left louisiana
Lookin' for some higher ground
Trying to make my crazy dream come true
But six months in atlanta
Done tuned my heart around
Tell me you still want me too
Let me come back home to you

Please jolie
Put me under your spell again
Won't you make me feel well again
Take me out of this hell i'm in
Oh please, jolie
This time i'm gonna treat you right
All i want to do is hold you tight
Believe me i've seen the light jolie

That day i left you cryin'
On the shores of ponchatrain
I left the only dream i'll ever need
Baby i ain't lying
I can't put out this flame
Gonna get down on my knees
Meet me down in new orleans

Please jolie
Put me under your spell again
Won't you make me feel well again
Take me out of this hell i'm in
Oh please, jolie
This time i'm gonna treat you right
All i want to do is hold you tight
Believe me i've seen the light jolie

Please jolie
Put me under your spell again
Won't you make me feel well again
Take me out of this hell i'm in
Oh please, jolie
This time i'm gonna treat you right
All i want to do is hold you tight
Believe me i've seen the light jolie

Tell your momma tell your daddy too
Tell 'em that i'm comin' home for you
Gotta ring for your pretty little hand
Gonna be your ever lovin' man
Tell your momma tell your daddy too
Tell 'em that i'm comin' home for you
Gotta ring for your pretty little hand
Gonna be your ever lovin' man.


5.Let's Talk About Our Love

(robert arthur, mark chesnutt, roger springer)

Well i don't wanna hear no more about how he broke your heart
Relivin' your old memories is tearin' me apart
I'd just soon forget about the past &cause that's the one thing
we can't change
Let's stop this useless conversation
That's just lovin' time we're waistin'
Losin' any more would be a shame

Chorus
Let's talk about you and me, let's talk about forever
How it's gonna be and how there'll never
Come a day when we give up on us
Let's talk about the way we feel whenever we're together
And how we never get enough let's talk about the good stuff
Let's talk about our love

Now we've been over everything he's ever done to you
It's time you figured out that we've got better things to do
I don't mean to sound like i don't care - girl you know your the
one i love
You can tell me anything you want to
And everything you've ever been through
But when it comes to him i've heard enough

Repeat chorus


6.My Way Back Home

After one of my huntin', fishin' party weekends
I could hardly wait to hold my baby again
A man will never see a more beautiful sight
Than home sweet mobil home in his truck headlights
But except for a cedar deck and cinder blocks
All i saw was a vacant lot

So i'm drivin' around, all over town
Wonderin' where she hauled it away
Yeah she's on a roll, which way do i go
I've been through every single trailer park and koa
She's been mad before, but never this sore
You can surely bet from now on
I won't wander from from her lovin' arms
If i ever find my way back home

Guess my homeless situation is partly my fault
For another thousand dollars down i could have bought
That house in the country that she loved so much
With all that brick and wood there ain't no way it would budge
It's easy now to figure out where i went wrong
But a little harder finding love that's gone

So i'm drivin' around, all over town
Wonderin' where she hauled it away
Yeah she's on a roll, which way do i go
I've been through every single trailer park and koa
She's been mad before, but never this sore
You can surely bet from now on
I won't wander from from her lovin' arms
If i ever find my way back home
Yeah the next time i leave, i'm taking her or the keys
If i ever find my way (if he ever find my way)
If i ever find my way back home
Boy i'm as lost as an easter egg...


7.That's The Way You Make An Ex

I never claimed to know everything
I ain't got no ph.d.
But boys listen up when it comes to love
You can learn a thing or two from me

I'm no expert on makin' love work
I really can't tell you a lot
Well i don't know how to keep a woman around
But i sure know how to run one off

So listen to my words of no wisdom
There's no secret to my lack of success
Once she draws the line just cross it one time
That's the way you make an ex

I never could spell misery to well
But i know it ends with a y
Why did i do what i did when i knew
She'd get her half and half of what's mine

Takes more than luck to really mess up
It don't just hapen this way
It took sacrifice and all my exwives
To get me where i am today

So listen to my words of no wisdom
There's no secret to my lack of success
Once she draws the line just cross it one time
That's the way you make an ex
Once she draws the line just cross it one time
That's the way you make an ex
That's the way you make an ex
That's the way you make an ex


8.This Heartache Never Sleeps

I worked myself to the bone
Tired as a man can get
It's the only way that i know
Might help me to forget
I lay me down
And i pray my soul to keep

Now it's two a.m. and i should be
Sleeping like a log
But i can't blame the poundin' rain
Or the neighbor's barkin' dog
It's what you do to me
This heartache never sleeps

Yeah twenty four hours of every day
I can feel it down in my chest
From the moment you walked away
Well i ain't got no rest
It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e
This heartache never sleeps

Well like a ghost that haunts me
Down at the end of my bed
Your memory, it taunts me
And it won't stay out of my head
Till you come back
It ain't never gonna leave

So i might as well get out of this bed
And put the coffee on
Girl you know i'm not alone
At the breakin' of the dawn
'cause just like me
This heartache never sleeps

Yeah twenty four hours of every day
I can feel it down in my chest
From the moment you walked away
Well i ain't got no rest
It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e
This heartache never sleeps
It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e
This heartache never sleeps
It won't let me be
It won't let me be
This heartache never sleeps


9.Tonight I'll Let My Memory Take Me Home

It's been too long
Since i traveled down
That ol' gravel road
On the north end of town
And i need a taste
Of the good ol' days gone
So tonight i let my memory
Take me home

And i'll be seventeen on my way to pick her up
With a half a dozen roses
In my daddy's pickup truck
And for a little while i'll just hold her in my arms
Dream on and on and on
Tonight i'll let my memory take me home

We grew apart and i moved away
It's a choice i regret
A little more every day
God i love to go back
To the good ol' days gone
So tonight i'll let my memory
Take me home

And i'll be seventeen on my way to pick her up
With a half a dozen roses
In my daddy's pickup truck
And for a little while i'll just hold her in my arms
Dream on and on and on
Tonight i'll let my memory take me home

Yesterday ain't that far away
I'll just close my eyes
And drift away

I'll be seventeen on my way to pick her up
With a half a dozen roses
In my daddy's pickup truck
And for a little while i'll just hold her in my arms
Dream on and on and on
Tonight i'll let my memory take me home
Dream on and on and on
Tonight i'll let my memory take me home


10.What Was You Thinking

Mister you don't know me
But i've heard about you
And how you spend your nights in here
Just what you put her through
So i came here to find out
If they sell the drink so strong
It would make a man fool enough
To go and do her wrong

Tell me what was you thinkin'
What was you drinkin'
I don't want none of that stuff
It must have made you lose your mind
Or you never would've lost her love
It would really help me
Mister if you tell me
I'll never bother you again
What was you thinkin'
What was you drinkin'

I guess i'd better go now
It's gettin' kind of late
And i don't have to tell you
She don't like to wait
I heard it's better to have loved and lost
And i must say i agree
Since you're the one who lost her love
And drove her straight to me

But tell me what was you thinkin'
What was you drinkin'
I don't want none of that stuff
It must have made you lose your mind
Or you never would've lost her love
It would really help me
Mister if you tell me
I'll never bother you again
What was you thinkin'
What was you drinkin'

Tell me what was you thinkin'
What was you drinkin'
I don't want none of that stuff
It must have made you lose your mind
Or you never would've lost her love
It would really help me
Mister if you tell me
I'll never bother you again
What was you thinkin'
What was you drinkin'
