Strong One

Mila Mason Strong One Lyrics
1.Blood Simple

(rick giles/susan longacre)

When i left work in the middle of the day
I didn't tell the boss it was 'cause i couldn't take
This bein' away from you
When i knew you were waitin' somewhere for me
Which you told me on my voicemail as only you could
Had a couple hours off might do me some good
And you know that i can't resist
The way i feel when i think of your kiss

It's blood simple, bone deep
Love's a promise that i mean to keep
Baby you can hold me to it 'til my last heartbeat
It's blood simple, bone deep
Even when i lay me down to sleep

Don't you know that you're the only thing that matters to me
Heartstrong, life long, true blue, blood simple, bone deep

Some things in life you can never understand
And even when you try to describe 'em you can't
Ever say what they really mean
'cause you always mean more than you can say
That's the way it is everytime i look in your eyes
There's something so pure it completely defies
Any words that i'm thinkin' of
All i can say when it comes to our love

It's blood simple, bone deep
Love's a promise that i mean to keep
Baby you can hold me to it 'til my last heartbeat
It's blood simple, bone deep
Even when i lay me down to sleep
Don't you know that you're the only thing that matters to me
Heartstrong, life long, true blue, blood simple, bone deep

It's blood simple, bone deep
Even when i lay me down to sleep
Don't you know that you're the only thing that matters to me
Heartstrong, life long, true blue, blood simple
Heartstrong, life long, true blue, blood simple, bone deep


2.10 Lb. Heart

(nick pellegrino/kenya walker)

People say i care too much
I'm so emotional
A tender soul who's out of control
I've been told a heart like mine
Is truly valuable
Even more than diamonds and gold
I'm overloaded with love
I've been saving up
For someone else who can't get enough
I must have a ten pound heart

A ton of devotion and gallons of tears
An old flame still burning
From my nineteenth year
Exploding with passion
Raging romance
Urging me consistently to take one more chance
Let this love inside of me start
Flowing from my ten pound heart

I need someone adventerous
This is serious
Timid hearted need not apply
Faithful and available
With some experience
In handling heavy desire
So now if i've described you
And you need someone who
Can share your dreams and make them come true
Look inside my ten pound heart

A ton of devotion and gallons of tears
An old flame still burning
From my nineteenth year
Exploding with passion
Raging romance
Urging me consistently to take one more chance
Let this love inside of me start
Flowing from my ten pound heart

A ton of devotion and gallons of tears
An old flame stil burning
From my nineteenth year
Exploding with passion
Raging romance
Urging me consistently to take one more chance
Let this love inside of me start
Flowing from my ten pound heart

Please won't you help this love inside of me start
Flowing from my ten pound heart


3.You And Only You

(kostas/wally wilson)

Who was i dreaming of this morning
Who has that sweet and gentle touch
Who is the boy i can't get off my mind
Who am i wanting so much
I ask myself could this be true
Could it be love that's breaking through
What's the reason i feel like i do

You and only you
You and only you

Who makes my heart beat faster
Who feels so good here in my arms
Who is the boy i'm so crazy about
Who's shown me all his hidden charms

And who has got me mesmerized
Each time i look into his eyes
Who has got me hooked on his love too

You and only you
You and only you

You and only you
You and only you

Who's gonna love me more tomorrow
With love that's stronger than today
Who can i trust with this old heart of mine
Who is this boy i want to stay

You and only you
You and only you

You and only you
You and only you
You and only you


4.One Thing Led To Another

(lindy gravelle/don pfimmer)

One grain of sand don't make a desert
A drop in the ocean is too hard to measure
One little lie doesn't mean you're a liar
One puff of smoke doesn't mean there's a fire

So how could a mountain of love disappear
A little bit there, a little bit here

Oh, one thing led to another
One night at a time, we lost each other
You're workin' late, she called again
A couple of drinks, she's just your friend
What's the harm
Oh, one thing led to another's arms

You'd fall into bed, too tired to hold me
A couple of rumors, some nobody told me
The first time your touch was just not the same
The night you blew up when i said her name

I closed my eyes to the tears on my face
But finally the pieces just fell into place

Oh, one thing led to another
One night at a time, we lost each other
You're workin' late, she called again
A couple of drinks, she's just your friend
What's the harm
Oh, one thing led to another's arms
Oh, one thing led to another's arms


5.Bossa' My Heart

(chapin hartford)

Let me tell you a little somethin' 'bout this heart of mine
I ain't gonna try to make it smile when it's really cryin'
And i won't tell you that i love you when i'm mad
But i won't tell you that i hate you, you can't get that bad

I'll give you my love
Well most of the time
All my affection
And a little piece of my mind
Some of my money
And a key to my car
But i'm gonna be the bossa' my heart, bossa' my heart
I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart

Now don't get me wrong 'cause baby you're the only one
If i seem a little cold it's from the storm i've come from
I have a history of missing the obvious
I nearly froze in a blinding love, i won't let that happen to us

I'll give you my love
Well most of the time
All my affection
And a little piece of my mind
Some of my money
And a key to my car
But i'm gonna be the bossa' my heart, bossa' my heart
I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart

I'm gonna let you be
The bossa' who
Watches the money, picks out the restaurants
Honey you do what you want
Yes you can
Be the main man
When it comes to the practical things that living can bring
I'm putty in your hands
But let me get one thing straight before we start

I'm gonna be the bossa' my heart, bossa' my heart i'm gonna be
the bossa' my heart


6.Let Me Cry

(tony mary/buffy lawson)

I don't want your simpathy
I can't believe you're telling me
That you don't love me anymore
You say that we can still be friends
And in time my heart will mend
Well that ain't what i'm looking for

So let me cry by myself
'cause these tears will help to wash away the pain
I know in time they will dry
But for now please go away and let me cry

Tell me is there someone new
That you've given your love to
Or is it something that i've done
Don't think i'll ever understand
We could come this far and then
You could leave me here alone
And...

Let me cry by myself
'cause these tears will help to wash away the pain
I know in time they will dry
But for now please go away and let me cry

I know in time they will dry
But for now please go away and let me cry
But for now please go away and let me cry


7.Don't Maybe Me

(holly lamar/kimberlye gold)

Darlin' you've won, yeah you've captured my heart
Tender promises and strong lovin' arms
Now that i'm yours at last, you say it's happenin' too fast
Suddenly you're having second thoughts

Don't maybe me, don't play those games
My heart's on go, don't hit the brakes
Kiss me crazy, sweep me off my feet
Love me, baby, do anything
But don't maybe me

You lit the fire, then you fanned the frame
You said prince charmin' was your middle name
Well i got news for you, cinderella ain't no fool
After all the pretty pictures that you paint

Don't maybe me, don't play those games
My heart's on go, don't hit the brakes
Kiss me crazy, sweep me off my feet
Love me, baby, do anything
But don't maybe me

Could it be you're afraid to really loose your heart
Well let's get lost together, just finish what you start

Don't maybe me, don't play those games
My heart's on go, don't hit the brakes
Kiss me crazy, sweep me off my feet
Love me, baby, do anything

Don't maybe me, don't play those games
My heart's on go, don't hit the brakes
Kiss me crazy, sweep me off my feet
Love me, baby, do anything
But don't maybe me


8.The Strong One

(cyril rawson/byron hill)

I know you well and i believe
You've got the strength, to do most anything
And every time, i'm in your arms
I know i'm somewhere, that's safe from harm, but

You don't have to be the strong one all the time
Let me be the one you lean on, ease your mind
It's not you against the world all alone
I'm here by your side
You don't have to be the strong one every day
Let me do my part, don't carry all the weight
Just remember you've got me
You don't always have to be...the strong one

You hide your pain, so well from view
But that's one thing, that you don't have to do
You cry inside, where no one sees
I'll dry those tears, if you just let me

You don't have to be the strong one all the time
Let me be the one you lean on, ease your mind
It's not you against the world all alone
I'm here by your side
You don't have to be the strong one every day
Let me do my part, don't carry all the weight
Just remember you've got me
You don't always have to be...the strong one
Just remember you've got me
You don't always have to be...the strong one


9.Closer To Heaven

(aimee mayo/bill luther)

I've been searching for so long
For something i couldn't find
Choices i made were so wrong
Until you came into my life
No matter who i held
There was an emptiness there
Now i know god heard my prayers

When you say my name
It's like hearing angels sing
When i feel your touch
It sets my spirit free
When you're in my arms
The world seems so far away
Oh, i believe you've taken me
To a place
Closer to heaven

Baby when i see you smile
I forget the tears i've cried
Everything i've ever lost
I've found in your eyes
You give your heart
With no conditions
And you take love to another dimension

When you say my name
It's like hearing angels sing
When i feel your touch
It sets my spirit free
When you're in my arms
The world seems so far away
Oh, i believe you've taken me
To a place
Closer to heaven

When you say my name
It's like hearing angels sing
When i feel your touch
It sets my spirit free
When you're in my arms
The world seems so far away
Oh, i believe you've taken me
To a place
Closer to heaven
Closer to heaven...


10.This Heart

(al anderson/robert ellis orrall)

Here i am standing in the mirror
I see a woman i can barely recognize
Suddenly it's becoming clearer
I'm waking to a feeling i just can't deny
I've made the same mistakes
I give my heart away
And i don't get it back
'til after it breaks

These lips weren't made to tremble
Those eyes weren't made to cry
These ears weren't meant to listen
To someone else's lies
These arms were made for holding
Someone who cares enough
To know now and forever
This heart was made for love

Not gonna hide beneath the covers
'bout time to rise above
And reach for something more
Instead of looking for a lover
I'm gonna be someone somebody's looking for
I'll shed these broken wings
I'll fly without those things
Don't have to stand for less then living my dreams

These lips weren't made to tremble
Those eyes weren't made to cry
These ears weren't meant to listen
To someone else's lies
These arms were made for holding
Someone who cares enough
To know now and forever
This heart was made for love

I'll shed these broken wings
I'll fly without those things
Don't have to stand for less then living my dreams

These lips weren't made to tremble
Those eyes weren't made to cry
These ears weren't meant to listen
To someone else's lies
These arms were made for holding
Someone who cares enough
To know now and forever
This heart was made for love
