Behind The Scene

Reba Mcentire Behind The Scene Lyrics
1.Love Isn't Love(Til You Give It Away)

(timmy tappan, don roth)

Smile's not a smile until it wrinkles your face
Bell's not a bell without ringing
A home's not a home when there's nobody there
A song's not a song without singing

Chorus:
Love isn't love till you give it away
Love isn't love till it's free
The love in your heart
Wasn't put there to stay
Oh love isn't love till you give it away

You might think love is a treasure to keep
Feeling to cherish and hold
But love is a treasure for people to share
You keep it by letting it go

Repeat chorus

Cause love can't survive
When it's hidden inside
And love was meant to be shared

Repeat chorus


2.Is It Really Love

(don scott hare, rita gannon)

They say that it's the same the whole world over
That love's the hardest thing to understand
I thought once in love my troubles would blow over
But it seems that's when the heartache just begins

And i remember when you first said that you love me
I tried not to let the words go to my head
The things you said you spoke so sincerely
Somewhere in between the lines of red

Chorus:
Is it really love
Is it really love
Or just my heart playing tricks on me
I fall so easily
Is my heart telling me
That i'm your fool
Or is it really love

This time love's got me feeling so uncertain
My heart's seen all the breaks that it can take
I can't tell you if this is just infatuation
Or another chance to learn from my mistakes

Repeat chorus

I'm a little bit leary
Of the love 'em and leave 'em behind kind
I'm just a little bit weary
Cause other lovers like messing with my mind
Oh all the time

Repeat chorus

Am i your fool
Or is it really love


3.Reasons

(reba mcentire)

I prefer yellow roses to daisies
I'll take the mountains over a postcard view
I'll order steaks every time instead of hot dogs
That's why i chose him over you

I like to love somebody handsome rather than ugly
I like happiness instead of being blue
I like to talk real late at night after making love
And that's the reasons i chose him over you

Well i don't know how i ever did without him
And i don't understand why i put up with you
Well i know that the sun shines the brightest when you're happy

So go ahead and think just what you want to
But i promise what i just told you is true
Oh i love him so much and he loves me too
And that's the reasons i chose him over you

Just some of the reasons i chose him over you
Oh over you


4.Nickel Dreams

(mac mcnally, donny lowery)

A little girl's dream world with ribbons and long curls
Reflections of yesterday's past
Now headlines and foot lights
The hours of long nights keep everything
Moving so fast

It's taken a long time
And she's walked a thin line
The fame and fortune arrived

She kept on striving
Way of surviving
Till part of those dreams came alive

Chorus:
And she wishes she looks like
They tell her she looks like all the time
What she'd give just to feel like
She tells them she's feeling
Just fine
All that money she makes every night
Ain't as much as it seems
A dollar a wrinkle and less then a nickel a dream

Her heart may be breaking
But she keeps on taking
What she thought she wanted way back when
It's too late to change her
There's always a stranger
To tell her she's someone again

Repeat chorus

Nickel a dream
Nickel dreams


5.One Good Reason

(bob dipiero, johnny macrae)

You said you were out with a friend
Well your friend left her lipstick in your car again
That mark on your neck didn't get there from shaving
I got a feeling you've been misbehaving

Chorus:
So give me one good reason why i should stay
Just one good reason not to walk away
Must be open season on cheating man-a-tease
And why do you do me this way
Just give me one good reason to stay
And i'll stay

You tell me your love is true
Well is that what you tell all the other girls too
You can't tell the truth babe
You're not even trying
I got a feeling you're just alibing

Repeat chorus x4


6.You Really Better Love Me After This

(bill rice, mary s. rice)

Your letter found me here in denver
I've changed though since i've been here
I've learned there's more to life
Than your promises

There's someone here
In colorado
Who won't forget tomorrow
So you really better love me after this

On a bus somewhere in kansas
Heading home to take my chances
Lord i hope this time you mean
The things you say

I won't say this is the last time
And let you play with my mind
But you really better love me after this

Chorus:
Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
Doesn't really mean that much to you
But you really better love me

As the bus pulls in the station
I can see you waiting
And i believe we both forget
What we can't forgive

Now we're holding to each other
I can feel my heart recover
And i know you'll gonna love me after this

Cause after all the pain we've been through
After all the chances we blew
I guess we really mean that much to you
Oh you're really gonna love you
Oh you're really gonna love me
Oh you're really gonna love me


7.There Ain't No Future In This

(bill rice, mary s. rice)

Honey i know you tried
When you loved me tonight
But the memory slipped from your lips
So if she's on your mind
That much of the time
There ain't no future in this

There was somebody who
Took a whole lot of you
And i guess you're not over it yet
If i'm just
Standing in for a memory then
There ain't no future in this

Cause mine are the arms that hold you
Hers are the arms you miss
So if she's still the one
When it's all said and done
There ain't no future in this

So if she's still the one
When it's all said and done
There ain't no future in this


8.Why Do We Want What We Know We Can't Have

(don king, david woodward)

Some come for the music
Some for romance
You gotta be with the boy that brought you to the dance
Then across the room comes a casual glance
And you be making some dime even half the chance

Now some like to look
And some like to touch
All the things that they can't have
Way too much
Some like to get real close to the flame
Once you feel the heat
You know they're never the same

Why do we want
What we know we can't have
Why don't we want
What's in the palm of our hands
Why we always looking
At what's just out of our grasp
Why do we want
What we know we can't have

Well susie was out driving her new corvette
She hadn't made that second payment yet
She rear ended a semi
But not by choice
She was a rubbernecking a new rolls royce

Repeat chorus x2


9.I Sacrificed More Than You'll Ever Lose

(beverly j. carlton, james l. benton)

I fed the children
And i kissed them goodnight
You fed the jukebox
Till they turn out the lights
I bought the bacon
While you bought the booze
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose

Needing new clothes with the money you spent
On barbills and motels and women you met
But i stood the heartache that you put me through
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose

I gave up so much
And now i'm giving up you
It's too late to make up for
The love that you used

I've had enough
I don't want you around
Don't look at me
Like i let you down
You say i'm to blame
But who's fooling who
I've sacrificed more than you'll ever lose
Yeah i sacrificed more than you'll ever lose


10.Pins And Needles

(janis carnes, rick carnes, chip hardy)

Chorus:
Pins and needles
Needles and pins
One by one i feel them at my heart again
I think i'm getting over you and then
Pins and needles
Needles and pins

I don't know why
I get uneasy
Every time i hear your name
I feel a sting from every memory
That we made

Repeat chorus

That tiny ache
Can always find me
Anytime that you are near
Those little things
Can still remind me
That you don't care

Repeat chorus
(pins and needles
Pins and needles
Pins and needles
Needles and pins)
