Crystal Gayle Lyrics
Why Cry lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I don't think I'll be a fool tonight
Just because our love's not going right
It does no good at all to walk the floor
And listen for your knock upon my door
Why cry?
Why not dry these tears and call it goodbye?
Even though I know that I
Can't admit we're really through
You'll just break my heart in two
If your love is just a lie
Why cry?
I could shed a million tears, but what's the use
'Cause these two eyes have took enough abuse
And even though it cuts me to the bone
Crying's never gonna bring you home
So why cry?
Why not dry these tears and call it goodbye?
Even though I know that I
Can't admit we're really through
And you'll just break my heart in two
If your love is just a lie
Why cry?
Drop by drop I've wasted time
Heartache over you
I need to get control of me
Find somebody new
So why cry?
Why not dry these tears and call it goodbye?
Even though I know that I
Can't admit we're really through
You'll just break my heart in two
Your love is just a lie
Why cry?
Your love is just a lie
Why cry?
A Rose Between Two Thorns lyrics - Crystal Gayle
She is weeping, there's no sleeping
Underneath their angry roar
They can't hear her, she can't figure
What they're always fighting for
Every night they end up this way
Tearing each other apart
And hearing them say she's the reason they stay together
Just breaks her heart
She's a rose between two thorns
A calm between two storms
And through the bitter words and slamming doors
Still there grows a rose between two thorns
They fight each other but they both love her
She's their only common ground
She can't take it, but she'll have to make it
Someday they won't be around
A day don't go by she don't wonder why
They brought her into this world
So each night she prays that it won't be this way
When she has her own little girl
Shes a rose between two thorns
A calm between two storms
And through the bitter words and slamming doors
Still there grows a rose between two thorns
Still there grows a rose between two thorns
The Trouble With Me (Is You) lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Lately I've been spending all my time alone
All my friends say I spend too much time at home
They say that's my trouble
Trouble is that's not true
The trouble with me is you
The trouble with me
Is you're with someone else
I've tried to forget you
But nothing seems to help
If lonely was my only trouble
I'd find someone new
The trouble with me is you
Living it up they say is the way to live you down
But can't they see your memory's just too strong to drown
I ain't got no trouble with a glass of wine or two
The trouble with me is you
The trouble with me
Is you're with someone else
I've tried to forget you
But nothing seems to help
If lonely was my only trouble
I'd find someone new
The trouble with me is you
Oh, if lonely was my only trouble
I'd find someone new
The trouble with me is you
If The Phone Doesn't Ring, It's Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Jimmy Buffett)
There are oceans of feelings between us
Currents they take us and sweep us away
That's why we're sailing and've seen us
And a ladder of cold holiday
Lots of new friends with the same old dancers
Open your eyes you might see
If a life without simple with living a past
If the phone doesn't ring it's me
If the phone doesn't ring you know that it's me
Of the other the eye of the storm
If the phone doesn't ring you know that I'll be
With someone can make me feel won
It's too bad we can't turn and live in the past
If the phone doesn't ring it's me
I've had good days and bad days
And going half mad days
I've tried to let go but you're still on my mind
I've lost all the old ways I'm searching for new place
Putting it all on the line
Lots of new friends with the same old problems
Open your eyes you might see
If a life's without something would live in the past
If the phone doesn't ring it's me
If the phone doesn't ring you'll know that it's me
Of the other the eye of the storm
If the phone doesn't ring you know that I'll be
With someone can make me feel won
It's too bad we can't turn and live in the past
If the phone doesn't ring it's me
It's me, it's me
It's me, it's me
It's me, it's me
It's me, it's me
If it takes all the future we'll live through the past
If the phone doesn't ring it's me
One Less Set Of Footsteps lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Jim Croce)
We been running away from
Something we both know
We've long run out of things to say
And I think I better go
So don't be getting excited
When you hear that slammin' door
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
And we've been hidin' from somethin'
That should have never gone this far
But after all it's what we've done
That makes us what we are
And you've been talkin' in silence
But if it's silence you adore
There'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps on your floor
One less girl to walk in
One less pair of jeans upon your door
One less voice a-talkin'
But tomorrow's a dream away
Today has turned to dust
Your silver tongue has turned to clay
And your golden rule to rust
If that's the way that you want it
That's the way I want it more
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps on your floor
One less girl to walk in
One less pair of jeans upon your door
One less voice a-talkin'
But tomorrow's a dream away
Today has turned to dust
Your silver tongue has turned to clay
And your golden rule to rust
If that's the way that you want it
That's the way I want it more
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
Well, there'll be one less set of footsteps
On your floor in the mornin'
The Least That I Can Do lyrics - Crystal Gayle
You don't have to say you're sorry
You don't owe me anything
I've got the years we've shared
Just let that be enough
I don't want to lose you
Or feel the hurt I'm going through
But if that says I love you
That's the least I can do
I've finally found a way to make you happy
I've always wanted to
I'll keep my arms from reaching out, I'll let you go
If that's what's best for you
It's not that I don't need you
I've got everything to lose
But if that says I love you
That's the least that I can do
I've finally found a way to make you happy
I've always wanted to
I'll keep my arms from reaching out, I'll let you go
If that's what's best for you
I don't want to lose you
Or feel the hurt I'm going through
But if that says I love you
That's the least that I can do
You know I'll always love you
That's the least that I can do
Love To, Can't Do lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Somewhere along the way I fell in love
I promised not to stray but now you're trying to make it rough
You've shoulda not look so good and I should not be here
But hardest racin' the headest spinnin'
But one thing here is clear
Love to but I can't do right now,won't to but I can not stay
Love to but I can't do,hate to leave you here this way
If I was a free girl baby everything could be so right
Love to but I can't do,hate to leave you here tonight
So many older roads that I could take
Think that I'll just did on home back to my own interstate
Your mood is full of pressure and I'm full of fear
Hardest racin' the headest spinning, I'll better get out of here
Love to but I can't do right now,won't to but I can not stay
Love to but I can't do,hate to leave you here this way
If I was a free girl baby, everything could be so right
Love to but I can't do,hate to leave you here tonight
Love to but I can't do right now,won't to but I can not stay
Love to but I can't do,hate to leave you here this way
If I was a free girl baby everything could be so right
Love to but I can't do hate to leave you here tonight
Love to but I can't do
Love to but I can't do, hate to leave you here tonight
Love to but I can't do right now,won't to but I can not stay
Love to but I can't do,hate to leave you here this way
99% Of The Time lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Well it's over, so long
There's no shoulder, to lean on
But I'm doing alright standing on my own
I can depend on me
Now everything I wanted to do
I'm doing it now that I'm living without you
And suddenly right out of the blue
I just can't help it, I'm thinking about you
Ninety-nine percent of the time
You're the only love
Still beating in this heart of mine
Alone at nights I hold somebody new
And I start to believe I'm finally over you
But ninety-nine percent of the time
You're the only love still beating
You're the only love still beating in this heart of mine
Oh I wonder sometimes
Do you ever miss the good times
Oh do you wanna call me on the telephone
The nights when you're alone
I hear your doing just fine
Are you really happy living without me
I know I'm gonna get by
But I'll still be here if you're thinking about me
Ninety-nine percent of the time
You're the only love
Still beating in this heart of mine
Alone at nights I hold somebody new
And I start to believe I'm finally over you
But Ninety-nine percent of the time
You're the only love still beating
You're the only love still beating in this heart of mine
And suddenly right out of the blue
I just can't help it, I'm thinking about you
Ninety-nine percent of the time
You're the only love
Still beating in this heart of mine
Alone at nights I hold somebody new
And I start to believe I'm finally over you
But ninety-nine percent of the time
You're the only love still beating
You're the only love still beating (still beating)
You're the only love still beating in this heart of mine
Living In Tears lyrics - Crystal Gayle
In tears
How could he leave me
In tears
And just throw away
All the love that we made
For all of those years
How could he leave me in tears
In love
I woke up to find him
In love
With somebody else
Now I just can't help
Wonderin' how I got here
Living my life in tears
Funny how things can change
Funny how the tables turn
When the fires of love die down
Someone's bound to wind up burned
Funny how things can change
Funny how the tables turn
When the fires of love die down
Someone's bound to wind up burned
In time
My eyes will dry
In time
And the hurt that I feel
Will somehow heal and then disappear
And I won't be living in tears
No I won't be living in tears
Three Good Reasons lyrics - Crystal Gayle
She was thirty years something when she crossed the line
Between southern Virginia and North Carolina
She was running away from a broken heart
With two sleeping children in the back of the car
The man she had promised her whole life to
Had told her that he'd found somebody new
Part of her wished she could lay down and die
But the part in charge looked him straight in the eyes instead
And that's when she said
Instead
I've got three good reasons to survive
One is eight years old
And one will soon be turning five
The third one is a woman
Who still has her pride
And that makes three good reasons to survive
She called some friends up in Rocky Mount
Who said they'd be glad to help her out
They put her and the children in the spare bedroom
She promised she'd find her own place soon
And she thanked 'em for their help
And said softly to herself
I've got three good reasons to survive
One is eight years old
And one will soon be turning five
The third one is a woman
Who still has her pride
And that makes three good reasons to survive
Now she's made a brand new home
Her laughter's back, her tears are gone
If you ask what made her strong
She'll just smile and say
I had three good reasons to survive
One is eight years old
And one has just turned five
The third one is a woman
Who never lost her pride
And that makes three good reasons to survive
Oh I had three good reasons to survive
Three good reasons
To survive
Oh, three good reasons to survive
Everybody's Reaching Out For Someone lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Everybody's reaching out for someone
Everybody's knocking at some door
And long before I ever found you
You're the one that I was reaching for
Just like the trees along the river bend
Lift up the branches to the sun above
We spent our lifetimes reaching for a friend
Cause everybody reach someone to love
Everybody's reaching out for someone
Everybody's knocking at some door
And long before I ever found you
You're the one that I was reaching for
I wanted you since the day my life began
I've heard your footsteps running just beyond my mind
Ever since that moment I've been reaching for your hand
Hoping you'd be reaching out for mine
Everybody's reaching out for someone
Everybody's knocking at some door
And long before I ever found you
You're the one that I was reaching for
It Ain't Gonna Worry My Mind lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Same old story, they all hand me
Preacher tells me, these are troubled times
But I know the Lord's been in tougher scrapes than this one
It ain't gonna worry
It ain't gonna worry
It ain't gonna worry my mind
Got no money in my pocket
You don't get rich workin' overtime
But as long as you can't buy the spring time in Virginia
It ain't gonna worry (ain't gonna worry me)
It ain't gonna worry (ain't gonna worry)
It ain't gonna worry my mind
Love is all that ever makes you richer
Oh, if the truth be told
Moonlight's been my only silver
And the sun my only gold
So go on wishin', go on prayin'
Go on sayin', "I'll hit better times"
But how in the world could He love me any better?
It ain't gonna worry (ain't gonna worry me)
It ain't gonna worry (ain't gonna worry)
It ain't gonna worry my mind
Just An Old Love lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Don't mind me if I should stare across the room
It's just an old love, just an old love
Seems to me, it's just a ghost of some perfume
It's just an old love that's come back way too soon
I find myself wondering about him, now and then
Like some dream overdue
Sometimes on the avenue like a boat [?] blues
Feels like our roses are still in bloom
So don't mind me if a sudden teardrop starts to fall
It's just an old love and that's all
There's no getting away from a memory
Sometimes all it takes is a melody
Don't mind me if my life to wondering through
It's just an old love, something I see in you
Deep within the shadow of my doubt
Last night, I had his picture out
To see if his eyes would still shine
Sure enough and right away
I had to look the other way
Just couldn't keep my heart off of my mind
So don't mind me if I should stare across the room
It's just an old love that's come back way too soon
Just an old love but that ain't nothing new
Just Like The Blues lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Wakes you up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat
You're thinking about somebody you tried to forget
Maybe it's the full moon made him cross your mind
Now you're lying there all alone and you feel like crying
You had a lot of chances to make things right
Oh, but you let them all fall through
So now, in the middle of your lonely nights
Funny how it always gets to you
And it's just like the blues to come calling
Oh, it's just like they always do
All of the memories you've been hiding
Funny how it always gets to you
And it's just like the blues
Now you're thinking about him and the way things change
It's all that you can do to keep from calling out his name
So you pick up the phone to call, but you change your mind
He wouldn't talk to you anyway, it's just a waste of time
Love can be a cruel thing, it makes a girl confused
You never know just what you should do
Just when you think you're over him for good
Funny how it always gets to you
And it's just like the blues to come calling
Oh, it's just like they always do
All of the memories you've been hiding
Funny how it always gets to you
And it's just like the blues to come calling
Oh, it's just like they always do
All of the memories you've been hiding
Funny how it always gets to you
And it's just like the blues
Just like the blues to come calling
Just like the blues, ooh
Just like the blues
Whenever It Comes To You lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I've done some things I should forget
Mistakes I have made a few
But darling I don't have one regret
Whenever it comes to you
I've never been the prayin' kind
But lately that's all I do
I always love and there's the rub
Whenever it comes to you
Sometimes it feels nothin' stays the same
There are some things that will never change
Rain must fall and birds must fly
This much I know is true
And I'll always be a fool at heart
Whenever it comes to you
And I'll always be a fool at heart
Whenever it comes to you
Never Ending Song Of Love lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I've got a never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending love for you
After all this time of being alone
We can love one another
Feel for each other, from now on
Feels so good I can hardly stand it
Never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending love for you
After all this time of being alone
We can love one another
Feel for each other, from now on
Feels so good I hardly stand it
Never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending love for you
I've got a never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending love for you
I'd have a never ending love for you
I'd sing my never ending song of love for you
Once In A Very Blue Moon lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Nanci Griffith)
I found your letter in my mailbox today
You were just checking if I was okay
And if I miss you, boy you know what they say
Just once in a very blue moon
Just once in a very blue moon
Just once in a very blue moon
And I feel one coming on soon
No need to tell me you'd like to be friends
And help me get back on my feet again
And if I miss you, well it's just now and then
Just once in a very blue moon
Just once in a very blue moon
Just once in a very blue moon
And I feel one coming on soon
There's a blue moon shining
When I'm reminded of all we've been through
Such a blue moon shining
Does it ever shine down on you
You act as if it never hurt you at all
Like I'm the only one who's getting up from a fall
Don't you remember, can't you recall?
Just once in a very blue moon
Just once in a very blue moon
Just once in a very blue moon
And I feel one coming on soon
Just once in a very blue moon
And I feel one coming, feel one coming
I feel one coming on soon
More Than Love lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Love isn't enough in troubled times
Takes a whole lot of understanding and truth
Keeping heart and soul alive, making it through every day
It takes more, more, more than love
Having to slowly count to ten
Knowing you re right and still giving in
Learning how to say you re wrong, that s the hardest part of all
It takes more, more, more than love
Love keeps growing, getting stronger every day
Long after the honeymoon is over, love has to find a way
To carry on, even in the darkest hour, when you really need a friend
It takes more, more, more than love
It takes more, more, more than love
Keeping heart and soul alive, making it through every day
It takes more, more, more than love
It takes more, more, more than love
It takes more, more, more than love
It takes so much more, more, more than love
More than love, mmm
When you really need a friend
Oh, it takes more than love
Oh, it takes more than love
What He's Doing Now lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Last time I saw him it was turning colder
But that was years ago
Last I heard he had moved to Boulder
Where he's now, I don't know
There's something 'bout this time of year
That spins my head around
Takes me back, makes me wonder
What he's doing now
What he's doing now is tearing me apart
Filling up my mind and emptying my heart
I can hear him call each time the cold wind blows
I wonder if he knows what he's doing now
Just for laughs I dialed his old number
But no-one knew his name
Hung up the phone, sat there and wondered
If he'd ever done the same
I took a walk in the winter wind
To clear my head somehow
But tonight I lie here thinking
What he's doing now
What he's doing now is tearing me apart
Filling up my mind and emptying my heart
I can hear him call each time the cold wind blows
I wonder if he knows
What he's doing now is tearing me apart
Filling up my mind and emptying my heart
I can hear him call each time the cold wind blows
I wonder if he knows what he's doing now
What he's doing now
What he's doing now
Faithless Love lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Linda Ronstadt)
Faithless love like a river flows
Like rain drops falling on a broken rose
Down in some valley where nobody goes
And the night goes in like a cold, dark wind
Faithless love like a river flows
Faithless love
Where did I go wrong?
Was it telling stories
In a heartbreak song?
When nobody's right
No better was wrong
Faithless love will find you
And the misery entwine you
Faithless love
Where did I go wrong?
Well, I guess I'm standing in the hall of broken dreams
That's the way it sometimes goes
Never new love
Never turns out like it seems
It's the feeling, comes and goes
Well, I guess I'm standing in the hall of broken dreams
That's the way it sometimes goes
Never new love
Never turns out like it seems
It's the feeling, comes and goes
Faithless love like a river flows
Like rain drops falling on a broken rose
Down in some valley where nobody goes
Faithless love has found me
Thrown its chilling arms around me
Faithless love like a river flows
Nobody's Angel lyics - Crystal Gayle
She's longing for love to take her
She whispers in silence but no one hears
Well, is she lonely, I'd say she was
All she needed was someone to love
Nobody's angel
She sits by the mirror and combs her hair
Maybe she's waiting for love to find her there
No warm embrace, soft candlelight
Only in dreams can love be so right
Nobody's angel
She's nobody's angel tonight
Ooh, it's a sad thing
She can't understand
Why the whole world's just passing her by
She's nobody's angel tonight
She'll have no one to hold her
And no one to kiss her goodnight
No one to run to if she's right
No one to give her the sweet things in life
Nobody's angel
She's nobody's angel tonight
She's nobody's angel, nobody's angel
She's nobody's angel tonight
Nobody's angel tonight
Old Habits Die Hard lyrics - Crystal Gayle
It's my decision
He looks my way
Within a sun expression
Just as it to say
It won't be easy
"L'amour" is right
For get the just one romance
We act tonight
I start to week in the music strong
My conscience speakin'
How know it's wrong
Give it up, remember what you said
This kind of love doesn't happen every day
Give it up, that's the way it's does
Discover, all habits die hard
Temptation makes a fool out of us all
Made my mind up
It had to end
So why this end decision
When he's close again
And if thought's a feeling
I can't deny
With those old memories still
That had crossed my mind
I thought by now that the flame have gone
How do you loves that I'm still holding on
Give it up
Remember what to said
This kind of love doesn't happen every day
Give it up
That's the way it starts
Discover, old habits die hard
Temptations makes a fool out of us all
(Te, te, temptations, tem, temptations, tem, temptations)
(Tem, tem, temptations, temptations, temptations)
She trusts he's holding on
He's your second thought
(Old habits die hard)
Give it up, remember what you said
This kind of love doesn't happen every day
Give it up, that's the way it starts
Discover, old habits die hard
Give it up, remember what you said
This kind of love doesn't happen every day
Give it up, that's the way it starts
Discover, old habits die hard
Give it up, remember what you said
This kind of love doesn't happen every day
Give it up, that's the way it starts
Tennessee Nights lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Sunlight is gone, a wind stirs the willow
Whippoorwills call from high on the hill
Deep shadows fall as I wait for you by the window
Soon you'll be here
Drawing me near to you again
These Tennessee nights roll on like a river
So gentle and slow with you by my side
These Tennessee nights will go on forever
'Cause here in my heart
You'll always be mine
I hear the wind whisper low through the hollow
Calling my name the way you did then
I close my eyes and I lay my head on the pillow
Soon you'll be here in peaceful dreams with me again
These Tennessee nights roll on like a river
So gentle and slow with you by my side
These Tennessee nights will go on forever
'Cause here in my heart
You'll always be mine
Here in my heart
You'll always be mine
Hopeless Romantic lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Sometimes on Sunday
I sit by the TV watching sad movies alone
And when it comes to the part where the little dog dies I cry
Sometimes I think I was born
Just a little behind or ahead of my time
I live in a dream world of caring and sharing
And good guys and nobody lies
I'm a believer
And much more than anything I believe in you
You're not a deceiver
And if you told me the ocean went dry
I'd believe in you
Call me a hopeless romantic
'Cause I can still believe
I can still believe in true love
And hopeless romantic still can find a way
To make true love last these days
Have you ever noticed while telling a tall tale
The look on the face of a child
She accepts without question as though it was gospel
They're only like that for a while
Call me a hopeless romantic
'Cause I can still believe
I can still believe in true love
And hopeless romantic still can find a way
To make true love last
To make true love last
To make true love last these days
For a hopeless romantic like me
Love May Find You lyrics - Crystal Gayle
How can I trust this love to this wind
Did it ever bring you closer to me
And how can I keep every breath that I breathe
From blowing away the seed
Love may find you
Love may blind you
I still dream of you in my life
If you need me
Please believe me
I'll still want you here by my side
I thought I felt you reaching for me
Just like I used to reach out for you
And if you said it'll be alright
There's nothing that I won't do
Love may find you
Love may blind you
I still dream of you in my life
If you need me
Please believe me
I'll still want you here by my side
Never really thought Id be in love like this
But that was long before I ever felt your kiss
And what I'd miss
Love may find you
Love may blind you
I still dream of you in my life
If you need me, please believe me
I'll still want you here by my side
Love may find you
Love may blind you
I still dream of you in my life
If you need me
Please believe me
I'll still want you here by my side
After The Best lyrics - Crystal Gayle
You were the one true love for me
You gave the best of your heart so easily
But it won't be easy now that we're through
For someone like me to find somebody new
Cause after the best, only the best will do
We had the best of times for so long
How could the best of intentions go so wrong
Where will I go, what will I do
It's so hard to imagine me without you
Cause after the best, only the best will do
There'll never be another to take the place of you
There's no use denying, there's no use in trying
Only the best will do
I know it's sad but it's true
I've got the rest of my life to try
To leave the best of my life behind
It won't be easy, I know it's true
It's so hard to imagine me without you
Cause after the best, only the best will do
Cause after the best, only the best will do
Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind) lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
Take it too
And you thought that I'd be waiting up
When you came home last night
You'd been out with all the boys
And you ended up half tight
Liquor and love that just won't mix
Leave a bottle or me behind
And don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
No, don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
Just stay out there on the town and see what you can find
'Cause if you want that kind of love, well, you don't need none of mine
So don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
You never take me anywhere
Because you're always gone
Many a nights, I've laid awake
And cried here all alone
And you come in kissing on me
It happens every time
So don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
No, don't come home a drinking with loving on your mind
Just stay out there on the town and see what you can find
'Cause if you want that kind of love, well, you don't get none of mine
So don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
No, don't come home a-drinking with loving on your mind
Midnight in the Desert lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Midnight in the desert
Shooting stars across the sky
Some magical journey
Will take us on a ride
Filled with the longing
Searching for the truth
Will we make it 'til tomorrow?
Will the sun shine on you?
Midnight in the desert
And we're listening
Listening to you
Midnight in the desert
And there's wisdom in the air
I've been looking for the answers
All my life, I've felt you there
As the world we live in quickens
Are we heeding all the signs?
Have we lost our intuition?
Are we running out of time?
Midnight in the desert
And we're listening
Listening to you
And we're listening
Listening to you
Listening
Listening
That's What I Like About the South lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Take me back to Alabamy
Take me to see my dear old Granny
Fryin' eggs and cookin' hammy
That's what I like about the South
There you can make no mistakey
And your nerves are never shaky
I used to taste that layer cakey
That's what I like about the South
She's got baked beans and candied yams
Sugar-cubed Virginia hams
Cellar full of those berry jams
That's what I like about the South
I like corn bread and burned beans
Ham hots and turnip greens
Party grind down at New Orleans
That's what I like about the South
You can poise on with all the news
Bought bear coat and brought down shoes
I'll tie it up as you can do
And that's what I like about the South
There's a place down south called
An old town and it ain't no city
It's pretty, sure it's pretty
Take me back to Alabamy
Take me to see my dear old Granny
Fryin' eggs and cookin' hammy
That's what I like about the South
Another World lyrics - Crystal Gayle (with Gary Morris)
I've always seen myself as a reckless gambler
Risking all that I had
Whenever I could
But then one day it happened
You appeared like from a dream
And we moved in synch like dancing
With our hearts in harmony
You are my way
To another world
Your are the one who makes me fly so high
You are the rain when my spirits run dry
You give my life
A hope that's real
'Cause when I'm with you
You take me away
To another world
All my life I've been called a hopeless romantic
Waiting for my prince
To sweep me away
But when I found you I felt different
Than I ever felt before
Suddenly I was taking no chances
By walking through your door
You are my way
To another world
Your are the one who makes me fly so high
You are the rain when my spirits run dry
You give my life
A hope that's real
Risking all that I had
Whenever I could
But then one day it happened
You appeared like from a dream
And we moved in synch like dancing
With our hearts in harmony
You are my way
To another world
Your are the one who makes me fly so high
You are the rain when my spirits run dry
You give my life
A hope that's real
'Cause when I'm with you
You take me away
To another world
All my life I've been called a hopeless romantic
Waiting for my prince
To sweep me away
But when I found you I felt different
Than I ever felt before
Suddenly I was taking no chances
By walking through your door
You are my way
To another world
Your are the one who makes me fly so high
You are the rain when my spirits run dry
You give my life
A hope that's real
Makin' Up For Lost Time (The Dallas Lovers' Song) lyrics - Crystal Gayle (with Gary Morris)
I see you standing by the light in the window of my bedroom
That old moon has never shined as bright as it's shining now on you
I see a new star in the heavens for us tonight
I've been waiting for you most of my life
Now that we're together and we're where we belong
I can't help but wonder why, why did it take so long
Sometimes it takes too much time to find the right one to say
I wanna make you mine, I wanna make you mine
Be with you all the time
And be the only light in your eyes that ever shines
Sometimes it takes too many roads to reach the right one to say
Here's where I wanna be, oh, what you mean to me
When we're making love
I'll spend the rest of my life with you making up for lost time
Making up, making up for lost time
I turn around and get lost in the look that you give to me
I drift away when I hear you say you've only lived to find me
Darling, let me hold you in my arms, darling, oh, so tight
I've been waiting for you most of my life
Now that we're together and we're where we belong
I can't help but wonder why, why did it take so long
Sometimes it takes too much time to find the right one to say
I wanna make you mine, I wanna make you mine
Be with you all the time
And be the only light in your eyes that ever shines
Sometimes it takes too many roads to reach the right one to say
Here's where I wanna be, oh, what you mean to me
When we're making love
I'll spend the rest of my life with you making up for lost time
Making up, making up for lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Better late than never, lost time
You know we'll be everyday
Making up, making up for lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Better late than never, lost time
We never spent together, lost time
That old moon has never shined as bright as it's shining now on you
I see a new star in the heavens for us tonight
I've been waiting for you most of my life
Now that we're together and we're where we belong
I can't help but wonder why, why did it take so long
Sometimes it takes too much time to find the right one to say
I wanna make you mine, I wanna make you mine
Be with you all the time
And be the only light in your eyes that ever shines
Sometimes it takes too many roads to reach the right one to say
Here's where I wanna be, oh, what you mean to me
When we're making love
I'll spend the rest of my life with you making up for lost time
Making up, making up for lost time
I turn around and get lost in the look that you give to me
I drift away when I hear you say you've only lived to find me
Darling, let me hold you in my arms, darling, oh, so tight
I've been waiting for you most of my life
Now that we're together and we're where we belong
I can't help but wonder why, why did it take so long
Sometimes it takes too much time to find the right one to say
I wanna make you mine, I wanna make you mine
Be with you all the time
And be the only light in your eyes that ever shines
Sometimes it takes too many roads to reach the right one to say
Here's where I wanna be, oh, what you mean to me
When we're making love
I'll spend the rest of my life with you making up for lost time
Making up, making up for lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Better late than never, lost time
You know we'll be everyday
Making up, making up for lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Better late than never, lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Straight To The Heart lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I know that it's late now but I had to call
So don't you hang up on me till I've said it all
It's a crazy situation but I can't handle it alone
So many complications, it's hard to tell you on the phone
While I'm unwinding
Let me give the bottom line
Come back home
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say
I'm gonna give it to you anyway
Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
You could blame it on my actions
But I did not mean to hurt
I could blame your cold reactions
Tell me, did you mean those words?
Well, I guess it's true
Everything you say and do
Goes to my heart
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say
I'm gonna give it to you anyway
Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
Well, I guess it's true
Everything you say and do
Goes to my heart
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say
I'm gonna give it to you anyway
Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say
I'm gonna give it to you anyway
Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say
I'm gonna give it to you anyway
Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
So don't you hang up on me till I've said it all
It's a crazy situation but I can't handle it alone
So many complications, it's hard to tell you on the phone
While I'm unwinding
Let me give the bottom line
Come back home
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say
I'm gonna give it to you anyway
Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
You could blame it on my actions
But I did not mean to hurt
I could blame your cold reactions
Tell me, did you mean those words?
Well, I guess it's true
Everything you say and do

Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
Well, I guess it's true
Everything you say and do
Goes to my heart
Got a little heartache, you can make it better
Got a little heartache, it's tearing me apart
If you don't want to listen to what I say

Straight to the heart, straight to the heart
Cry lyrics - Crystal Gayle
If your sweetheart sends a letter of goodbye
It's no secret you'll feel better if you cry
When waking from a bad dream don't you sometimes think it's real?
But it's only false emotions that you feel
If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep getting bluer with each song
Remember sunshine can be found behind the cloudy skies
So let your hair down and go on and cry
If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep getting bluer with each song
Well, just remember, sunshine can be found behind the cloudy skies
So let your hair down and go on and cry
Let your hair down, baby, go on and cry
It's no secret you'll feel better if you cry
When waking from a bad dream don't you sometimes think it's real?
But it's only false emotions that you feel
If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep getting bluer with each song
Remember sunshine can be found behind the cloudy skies
So let your hair down and go on and cry
If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep getting bluer with each song
Well, just remember, sunshine can be found behind the cloudy skies
So let your hair down and go on and cry
Let your hair down, baby, go on and cry
A Long And Lasting Love lyrics - Crystal Gayle
A long and lasting love
Not many people find it
But those who do their whole life through
Put their heart and soul behind it
A long and lasting love
A long and lasting love
Is what I've always dreamed of
And when I look into your eyes
I knew I'd really seen love
A long and lasting love
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
I never thought I'd see a love like this
Tonight I'll show you that our love is something beautiful
And I'll seal it with a kiss
A long and lasting love
We share for many reasons
A special bond
That goes beyond the changing of the seasons
A long and lasting love
A long and lasting love
Someone I can care for
Someone to be there for the rest of my life
A long and lasting love
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
I never thought I'd see a love like this
Tonight I'll show you that our love is something beautiful
And I'll seal it with a kiss
A long and lasting love
Is what I've always dreamed of
And when I looked into your eyes
I knew I'd really seen love
A long and lasting love
A long and lasting love
Not many people find it
But those who do their whole life through
Put their heart and soul behind it
A long and lasting love
A long and lasting love
Is what I've always dreamed of
And when I look into your eyes
I knew I'd really seen love
A long and lasting love
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
I never thought I'd see a love like this
Tonight I'll show you that our love is something beautiful
And I'll seal it with a kiss
A long and lasting love
We share for many reasons
A special bond
That goes beyond the changing of the seasons
A long and lasting love
A long and lasting love
Someone I can care for
Someone to be there for the rest of my life
A long and lasting love
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
I never thought I'd see a love like this
Tonight I'll show you that our love is something beautiful
And I'll seal it with a kiss
A long and lasting love
Is what I've always dreamed of
And when I looked into your eyes
I knew I'd really seen love
A long and lasting love
A long and lasting love
Nobody Wants To Be Alone lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I've spent my life trying to tell everyone
I've got myself I don't need anyone
You heard the words but you looked in my eyes
And saw the wall of tears I was hiding behind
You reached for me, I felt your touch
I wanted you we both needed so much
In a world of lonely people looking for love
Why was I surprised to see it happen to us
Everybody needs someone to love
Everybody wants to love someone
When the nights are long and cold
Everybody needs someone to love
Nobody wants to be alone
The days were empty, the nights were so long
I wished on every star til you came along
I knew that one day you'd walk through that door
Sometimes it's hard but love is worth waiting for
Everybody needs someone to love
Everybody wants to love someone
When the nights are long and cold
Everybody needs someone to love
Nobody wants to be alone
Now when you see me cry
You'll only see tears of joy in my eyes
In a world of lonely people looking for love
I wish everyone could be as lucky as us
I've got myself I don't need anyone
You heard the words but you looked in my eyes
And saw the wall of tears I was hiding behind
You reached for me, I felt your touch
I wanted you we both needed so much
In a world of lonely people looking for love
Why was I surprised to see it happen to us
Everybody needs someone to love
Everybody wants to love someone
When the nights are long and cold
Everybody needs someone to love
Nobody wants to be alone
The days were empty, the nights were so long
I wished on every star til you came along
I knew that one day you'd walk through that door
Sometimes it's hard but love is worth waiting for
Everybody needs someone to love
Everybody wants to love someone
When the nights are long and cold
Everybody needs someone to love
Nobody wants to be alone
Now when you see me cry
You'll only see tears of joy in my eyes
In a world of lonely people looking for love
I wish everyone could be as lucky as us
You Were There For Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Every time I ever saw my dreams fall apart
I picked up all the pieces on my own
But when I felt you by my side
Something told my heart
For the first time in my life
I wasn't all alone
You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me
When there wasn't a prayer
For me
And it was then I knew I
Loved you
You were there for me
I never put my faith in
Anybody before
But I felt your spirit reaching out to mine
I tasted magic in your kiss
But I wanted even more
And that's what you gave tome
When I hit the bottom line
You were there for me,
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me
When there wasn't a prayer for me
And it was then I knew I loved you
You were there for me
I had all this love inside me
It took you to bring it out
It's when I found your strength to guide me
I learned what love was all about
You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me
When there wasn't a prayer
For me and at all out through I promise
I'll be there for you
You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me...
I picked up all the pieces on my own
But when I felt you by my side
Something told my heart
For the first time in my life
I wasn't all alone
You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me
When there wasn't a prayer
For me
And it was then I knew I
Loved you
You were there for me
I never put my faith in
Anybody before
But I felt your spirit reaching out to mine
I tasted magic in your kiss
But I wanted even more
And that's what you gave tome
When I hit the bottom line
You were there for me,
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me
When there wasn't a prayer for me
And it was then I knew I loved you
You were there for me
I had all this love inside me
It took you to bring it out
It's when I found your strength to guide me
I learned what love was all about
You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me
When there wasn't a prayer
For me and at all out through I promise
I'll be there for you
You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you,
You had love to spare for me
Baby you were there for me...
Touch And Go lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Honey, forgive me if I stop and drift
But my whole world's been thrown in a spin!
And it ain't any wonder; you come on like thunder -
and then disappear like the wind!
Last thing I remember, I'm just holding on -
falling away in your arms...
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye; you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go! (and go)
We could be taking it tender and slow...
It never fails - the same old tale of woe-oe-oe...
I like you much too much - too much to let you touch and go!
Maybe I'm wrong, coming on a bit strong,
But this is something like I've never felt...
It's like I'm goin' through the ceiling, and suddenly feeling,
Like butter and ready to melt.
Ever since I met you, I've been just holdin' on,
And I'm totally out of control...
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye, you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go! (and go)
We could be taking it tender and slow...
It never fails; the same old tale of woe-oe-oe,
I like you much too much - too much to let you touch and go!
Touch and Go!
Don't tell me, you don't feel the same!
After all, you recall - I was there...!
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye; you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go! (and go)
We could be taking it tender and slow...
It never fails - the same old tale of woe-oe-oe...
I like you much too much - too much to let you touch and go!
How can you say goodbye, you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye, you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go!
But my whole world's been thrown in a spin!
And it ain't any wonder; you come on like thunder -
and then disappear like the wind!
Last thing I remember, I'm just holding on -
falling away in your arms...
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye; you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go! (and go)
We could be taking it tender and slow...
It never fails - the same old tale of woe-oe-oe...
I like you much too much - too much to let you touch and go!
Maybe I'm wrong, coming on a bit strong,
But this is something like I've never felt...
It's like I'm goin' through the ceiling, and suddenly feeling,
Like butter and ready to melt.
Ever since I met you, I've been just holdin' on,
And I'm totally out of control...
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye, you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go! (and go)
We could be taking it tender and slow...
It never fails; the same old tale of woe-oe-oe,
I like you much too much - too much to let you touch and go!
Touch and Go!
Don't tell me, you don't feel the same!
After all, you recall - I was there...!
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye; you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go! (and go)
We could be taking it tender and slow...
It never fails - the same old tale of woe-oe-oe...
I like you much too much - too much to let you touch and go!
How can you say goodbye, you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go!
How can you say goodbye, you've barely, said hello!
Touch and Go!
Someone Like You lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I've been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
I've been traveling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
I've been traveling a hard road
Lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carryin' my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come
Shining through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different
Drum.
But just lately I have
Realized
The best is yet to come.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
For someone exactly like you
I've been traveling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
I've been traveling a hard road
Lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carryin' my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come
Shining through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different
Drum.
But just lately I have
Realized
The best is yet to come.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
God Bless The Child lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
He just worry 'bout nothin'
Cause he's got his own
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
He just worry 'bout nothin'
Cause he's got his own
The Sound Of Goodbye lyrics - Crystal Gayle
We kissed goodnight
And we turn out the light
And we lay side by side in the dark
And we're waiting for sleep or a spark
But the night's on the run
And the spark does not come
And we quietly worry and wonder
And the silence is louder than thunder
And it rings with the sound of goodbye
It rings with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
We can talk of the weather
We can talk of the news
We can talk of the talk of the town
There's another true love going down
We can talk about promises, talk about lies
But there's no use pointing our fingers
And the sound of 'I love you' still lingers
But it rings with the sound of goodbye
It rings with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
Time is forever
But love is a fire
And one day is one degree colder
And the clock's tickin' over your shoulder
And it ticks and it ticks, and it ticks and it ticks...
And it ticks with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
Sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
And we turn out the light
And we lay side by side in the dark
And we're waiting for sleep or a spark
But the night's on the run
And the spark does not come
And we quietly worry and wonder
And the silence is louder than thunder
And it rings with the sound of goodbye
It rings with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
We can talk of the weather
We can talk of the news
We can talk of the talk of the town
There's another true love going down
We can talk about promises, talk about lies
But there's no use pointing our fingers
And the sound of 'I love you' still lingers
But it rings with the sound of goodbye
It rings with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
Time is forever
But love is a fire
And one day is one degree colder
And the clock's tickin' over your shoulder
And it ticks and it ticks, and it ticks and it ticks...
And it ticks with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
Sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why
It may be the truth or it may be a lie
But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
I Don't Wanna Lose Your Love lyrics - Crystal Gayle
You look at me and I can see
The feelings gone
What happen to the dream
We plan our future on
You turn away
And try to say
What we both know
But baby,
I can't let you go
Let you go away
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
I tried to hide
The pain inside
So plain to see
I never could keep secrets
From you anyway
So hard to face
I can't erase
The thoughts of you
But baby
Won't you change your mind
Change your mind and stay
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
The feelings gone
What happen to the dream
We plan our future on
You turn away
And try to say
What we both know
But baby,
I can't let you go
Let you go away
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
I tried to hide
The pain inside
So plain to see
I never could keep secrets
From you anyway
So hard to face
I can't erase
The thoughts of you
But baby
Won't you change your mind
Change your mind and stay
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna be the one
Who's brokenhearted
Don't take the only love
I've ever known
I don't wanna lose your love
How could you go and stop
What we have started
Oh baby
I don't wanna be alone
Me Against The Night lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Moon please don't shine on me
Help me hide his memory
Stars don't light the midnight sky
'cause you don't want to see me cry
Heart don't let me think of him
Lock your door don't let his memory in
I feel the cold wind blowing through
A love like this was meant for two
But its me against the light
And I'm afraid it's a losing fight
I see you in every shadow of the room
You're not here to hold me tight
I can't wait til the morning light
There's no way to win
When it's me against the night
Gone you said you'd never be
And all of you belonged to me
Burning tears fall down like rain
Longing for your love again
But its me against the light
And I'm afraid it's a losing fight
I see you in every shadow of the room
You're not here to hold me tight
I can't wait til the morning light
There's no way to win
When it's me against the night
Me against the night
Help me hide his memory
Stars don't light the midnight sky
'cause you don't want to see me cry
Heart don't let me think of him
Lock your door don't let his memory in
I feel the cold wind blowing through
A love like this was meant for two
But its me against the light
And I'm afraid it's a losing fight
I see you in every shadow of the room
You're not here to hold me tight
I can't wait til the morning light
There's no way to win
When it's me against the night
Gone you said you'd never be
And all of you belonged to me
Burning tears fall down like rain
Longing for your love again
But its me against the light
And I'm afraid it's a losing fight
I see you in every shadow of the room
You're not here to hold me tight
I can't wait til the morning light
There's no way to win
When it's me against the night
Me against the night
Turning Away lyrics - Crystal Gayle
None of your friends come near you
They've given up trying to steer you
Because you're turning away, turning away from love
Lately you look so ragged
The edge of your heart's become jagged
And your turning away, turning away from love
I see ya turning away, turning away from love
I see ya turning away, turning away from love
Well she gives it to you without asking
A piece of her heart everlasting
But you're turning away, turning away from love.
Just when this old world needs all the love it can get
You're turning away, you're turning away from the one who really cares, turning away from love
They've given up trying to steer you
Because you're turning away, turning away from love
Lately you look so ragged
The edge of your heart's become jagged
And your turning away, turning away from love
I see ya turning away, turning away from love
I see ya turning away, turning away from love
Well she gives it to you without asking
A piece of her heart everlasting
But you're turning away, turning away from love.
Just when this old world needs all the love it can get
You're turning away, you're turning away from the one who really cares, turning away from love
Take Me Home lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Take me home, you silly boy
Put your arms around me
Take me home, you silly boy
All the world's not round without you
I'm so sorry that I broke your heart
Please don't leave my side
Take me home, you silly boy
Cause I'm still in love with you
Put your arms around me
Take me home, you silly boy
All the world's not round without you
I'm so sorry that I broke your heart
Please don't leave my side
Take me home, you silly boy
Cause I'm still in love with you
Our Love Is On The Faultline lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Well, I hear it comin'
I can feel it in my bones
And it's weighin' heavy on me
Like a sack full of stones
And I see it in your eyes, baby
Each time we meet
And I sense somethin' movin'
Underneath our feet
Baby, our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
Now there's a chilly wind a blowin'
And it's whippin' up a gale
Storm clouds are brewin'
And I know it's gonna hail
And I see it in your eyes, baby
Each time we meet
And sense somethin' movin'
Underneath our feet
Baby, our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
I feel it in my bones, I see it in your eyes
Comin' up behind, here it comes
Hold on tight
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
I can feel it in my bones
And it's weighin' heavy on me
Like a sack full of stones
And I see it in your eyes, baby
Each time we meet
And I sense somethin' movin'
Underneath our feet
Baby, our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
Now there's a chilly wind a blowin'
And it's whippin' up a gale
Storm clouds are brewin'
And I know it's gonna hail
And I see it in your eyes, baby
Each time we meet
And sense somethin' movin'
Underneath our feet
Baby, our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
I feel it in my bones, I see it in your eyes
Comin' up behind, here it comes
Hold on tight
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak

For our love, for our love
Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love
Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
Deeper In The Fire lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Ooh I can feel it.
Everytime you're near.
Oh and even when you're not even here.
Oh yes, I'm fallin'
Fallin' so fast
Everytime you're near.
Oh and even when you're not even here.
Oh yes, I'm fallin'
Fallin' so fast
'Til I Gain Control Again lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Emmylou Harris)
Just like the sun over the mountain top
You know I'll always come again
You know I like to spend my morning time
Like sunlight dancing on your skin
I've never gone so wrong as for telling lies to you
What you've seen is what I've been
And there is nothing I can hide from you
You see me better than I can
Out on the road that lies before me now
There are some turns where I will spin
I only hope that you can hold me now
Til I can gain control again
Like a lighthouse you must stand alone
Landmark a sailor's journey's end
No matter what seas I've been sailing on
I'll always roll your way again
Just like the sun over the mountain top
You know I'll always come again
You know I like to spend my morning time
Like sunlight dancing on your skin
I've never gone so wrong as for telling lies to you
What you've seen is what I've been
And there is nothing I can hide from you
You see me better than I can
Out on the road that lies before me now
There are some turns where I will spin
I only hope that you can hold me now
Til I can gain control again
Like a lighthouse you must stand alone
Landmark a sailor's journey's end
No matter what seas I've been sailing on
I'll always roll your way again
Baby, What About You lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Everybody thinks I'm crazy it's going around
The girl is headed for a heart break she's going down
They say I'm always wanting something that I can't have
Baby what about you
Everybody says you really ought to go home
Tell the man that you love him when you're all alone
I don't really think that that's something I can do
Baby what about you
Sometimes late at night when I'm missing you
And I'm calling out your name
I don't know if it's wrong I don't know if it's right
But I follow my heart just the same
I don't really think I'm crazy for taking my time
I'm just looking for the answers I've gotta find
They say it's gonna be a long hard ride
Baby what about you
The girl is headed for a heart break she's going down
They say I'm always wanting something that I can't have
Baby what about you
Everybody says you really ought to go home
Tell the man that you love him when you're all alone
I don't really think that that's something I can do
Baby what about you
Sometimes late at night when I'm missing you
And I'm calling out your name
I don't know if it's wrong I don't know if it's right
But I follow my heart just the same
I don't really think I'm crazy for taking my time
I'm just looking for the answers I've gotta find
They say it's gonna be a long hard ride
Baby what about you
Everything I Own lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Bread)
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, set me free
The finest years I ever knew
Were all the years I had with you
I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to love
What it's of, what it's of
You never said too much, but still you showed the way
And I knew from watching you
Nobody else could ever know
The part of me that can't let go
And I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Is there someone you know
You're loving them so
Taking them all for granted?
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And they don't hear the words you long to say
I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to touch you once again
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, set me free
The finest years I ever knew
Were all the years I had with you
I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to love
What it's of, what it's of
You never said too much, but still you showed the way
And I knew from watching you
Nobody else could ever know
The part of me that can't let go
And I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Is there someone you know
You're loving them so
Taking them all for granted?
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And they don't hear the words you long to say
I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to touch you once again
He Is Beautiful To Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
He is beautiful to me,
And in my wildest dreams
Did I ever dream
He would come to me.
I was lost but I have found
True heaven through his love,
And comfort knowing
He is beautiful to me.
He's the key to the door
Of joy never ending,
He's the light,
He's the way,
And without him
I say I can't go on.
For he is beautiful to me.
He gives me so much love
Without thinking of what he gets from me.
He's the road with no end,
He's life everlasting,
He's a friend,
He's a king
And to him I will bring
All I have.
I will love him 'til I die,
And even then I know
This love will grow and grow,
He's so beautiful to me.
And in my wildest dreams
Did I ever dream
He would come to me.
I was lost but I have found
True heaven through his love,
And comfort knowing
He is beautiful to me.
He's the key to the door
Of joy never ending,
He's the light,
He's the way,
And without him
I say I can't go on.
For he is beautiful to me.
He gives me so much love
Without thinking of what he gets from me.
He's the road with no end,
He's life everlasting,
He's a friend,
He's a king
And to him I will bring
All I have.
I will love him 'til I die,
And even then I know
This love will grow and grow,
He's so beautiful to me.
The Woman In Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Seems to me, no matter what I do
I picked the wrong time to do it
In a minute, I will be all right
If you will let think it through
I could comb my hair and
Walk right out of here so fast
Let the silence tell you that
I've grown up at las&116
You'll never break in woman in me
Though you might break the smile
You'll never hurt the woman in me
But you might hurt the child
Can I help it if it feels good
To have your arms wrapped around me
When you touch me, I'm a little girl
And there's so much that I still need
Give me room to touch my own heart
I'm not so weak
I could fly away and leave you
With a kiss on the cheek
You'll never break in woman in me
Though you might break the smile
You'll never hurt the woman in me
But you might hurt the child
You'll never break in woman in me
Though you might break the smile
You'll never hurt the woman in me
But you might hurt the child
I picked the wrong time to do it
In a minute, I will be all right
If you will let think it through
I could comb my hair and
Walk right out of here so fast
Let the silence tell you that
I've grown up at las&116
You'll never break in woman in me
Though you might break the smile
You'll never hurt the woman in me
But you might hurt the child
Can I help it if it feels good
To have your arms wrapped around me
When you touch me, I'm a little girl
And there's so much that I still need
Give me room to touch my own heart
I'm not so weak
I could fly away and leave you
With a kiss on the cheek
You'll never break in woman in me
Though you might break the smile
You'll never hurt the woman in me
But you might hurt the child
You'll never break in woman in me
Though you might break the smile
You'll never hurt the woman in me
But you might hurt the child
Ain't No Sunshine lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Bill Withers)
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And he's always gone too long
Anytime he goes away
Wonder this time where he's gone,
Wonder if he's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
May leave that man alone,
This house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
Only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
And he's always gone too long
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And he's always gone too long
Anytime he goes away
Wonder this time where he's gone,
Wonder if he's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
May leave that man alone,
This house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
Only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
And he's always gone too long
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
You Never Gave Up On Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
For all the times you stood by me,
Through right and wrong,
For being there to catch me when I'd fall,
I love you for your faith in me,
For all the joys you've given me,
But there's one thing makes me love you most of all.
You never gave up on me when I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work
You stayed to see it through.
You never gave up on me when I was making
Things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love somebody.
And though sometimes we might not see things eye to eye,
You've always met me more than half the way,
So for all the times I've let you down
And you could have packed your things and gone,
I love you most of all because you stayed.
And you never gave up on me
When I was giving love up on you,
Never mattered who was right or wrong,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me,
When I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.
There were times I just knew you,
Did not understand the moods,
All those long and sleepless nights I put us through,
But you stuck by me anyway,
Gave me love everyday
And now there's nothing,
In this world I wouldn't do for you.
Cause you never gave up on me,
When I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me when,
I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.
Cause you never gave up on me,
When I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me when I was,
Making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.
Through right and wrong,
For being there to catch me when I'd fall,
I love you for your faith in me,
For all the joys you've given me,
But there's one thing makes me love you most of all.
You never gave up on me when I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work
You stayed to see it through.
You never gave up on me when I was making
Things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love somebody.
And though sometimes we might not see things eye to eye,
You've always met me more than half the way,
So for all the times I've let you down
And you could have packed your things and gone,
I love you most of all because you stayed.
And you never gave up on me
When I was giving love up on you,
Never mattered who was right or wrong,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me,
When I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.
There were times I just knew you,
Did not understand the moods,
All those long and sleepless nights I put us through,
But you stuck by me anyway,
Gave me love everyday
And now there's nothing,
In this world I wouldn't do for you.
Cause you never gave up on me,
When I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me when,
I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.
Cause you never gave up on me,
When I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me when I was,
Making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.
Livin' In These Troubled Times lyrics - Crystal Gayle
It takes all the faith that's in you
Takes your heart and it takes mine
It takes love to be forgiven
Living in these troubled times
When it rains on the range
And it snows in the Spring
You're reminded again
It's just a march of the dying
Living in these troubled times
Brings you down to buy a paper
If you read between the lines
No one seems to have the answer
To living in these troubled times
Still you try and you try
And you do what you must do
It's the march of the dying
Living in these troubled times
Loving in these troubled times
It takes a man, it takes a woman
It took your heart and it took mine
It takes love to be forgiven
Living in these troubled times
It's the march of the dying
Living in these troubled times
Loving in these troubled times
Takes your heart and it takes mine
It takes love to be forgiven
Living in these troubled times
When it rains on the range
And it snows in the Spring
You're reminded again
It's just a march of the dying
Living in these troubled times
Brings you down to buy a paper
If you read between the lines
No one seems to have the answer
To living in these troubled times
Still you try and you try
And you do what you must do
It's the march of the dying
Living in these troubled times
Loving in these troubled times
It takes a man, it takes a woman
It took your heart and it took mine
It takes love to be forgiven
Living in these troubled times
It's the march of the dying
Living in these troubled times
Loving in these troubled times
Lean On Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
(originally by Bill Withers)
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show
You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
Call me (if you need a friend)
Call me (call me)
Call me (if you need a friend)
Call me (if you ever need a friend)
Call me (call me)
Call me
Call me (if you need a friend)
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show
You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
Call me (if you need a friend)
Call me (call me)
Call me (if you need a friend)
Call me (if you ever need a friend)
Call me (call me)
Call me
Call me (if you need a friend)
Crying In The Rain lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All the sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you
So though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Will never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All the sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you
So though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Will never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Too Many Lovers lyrics - Crystal Gayle
You gotta be rough, you gotta be tough
If you're gonna fall in love these days
You gotta keep an eye open all the time
Or you'll get your heart broke along the way
These days too many lovers
These days not enough love
These days so much danger
To be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
It's gonna take time if your gonna find
The perfect kind of love that you dream about
It's out there on the street but everyone you meet
Won't always tell the truth so you better watch out
These days too many lovers
These days not enough love
These days so much danger
To be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Each night, all night
At night it's a brand new dance
That love, your love, true love is bound to change
There's too many lovers
You gotta be rough, you gotta be tough
If you're gonna fall in love these days
You gotta keep an eye open all the time
Or you'll get your heart broke along the way
These days too many lovers
These days not enough love
These days so much danger
To be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many, too many lovers
Too many, too many lovers
If you're gonna fall in love these days
You gotta keep an eye open all the time
Or you'll get your heart broke along the way
These days too many lovers
These days not enough love
These days so much danger
To be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
It's gonna take time if your gonna find
The perfect kind of love that you dream about
It's out there on the street but everyone you meet
Won't always tell the truth so you better watch out
These days too many lovers
These days not enough love
These days so much danger
To be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Each night, all night
At night it's a brand new dance
That love, your love, true love is bound to change
There's too many lovers
You gotta be rough, you gotta be tough
If you're gonna fall in love these days
You gotta keep an eye open all the time
Or you'll get your heart broke along the way
These days too many lovers
These days not enough love
These days so much danger
To be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers

Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many, too many lovers
Too many, too many lovers
If You Ever Change Your Mind lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Sure I understand
Of course, I'll be fine
You had to change your plans,
Oh well, I'll just change mine
But if it turns out bad
And if your nights get long
And if she makes you sad
No need, to be strong
And if you ever change your mind
And find you miss those feelings that you left behind
We can give it one more try
Some magic place in time
If you ever change your mind
I guess I'd better go
You know I hate goodbyes
Let's not drag this out babe
I'll see ya 'round sometime
And if you ever change your mind
And find you miss those feelings that you left behind
We can give it one more try
Some magic place in time
If you ever change your mind
Go, don't look back
Let the heartache pass
Of course, I'll be fine
You had to change your plans,
Oh well, I'll just change mine
But if it turns out bad
And if your nights get long
And if she makes you sad
No need, to be strong
And if you ever change your mind
And find you miss those feelings that you left behind
We can give it one more try
Some magic place in time
If you ever change your mind
I guess I'd better go
You know I hate goodbyes
Let's not drag this out babe
I'll see ya 'round sometime
And if you ever change your mind
And find you miss those feelings that you left behind
We can give it one more try
Some magic place in time
If you ever change your mind
Go, don't look back
Let the heartache pass
Take It Easy lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Come to my door, meet me at midnight,
I can't wait anymore, and after midnight,
We must head for the town,
Keep under cover till dawn,
With a bagful of wine;
The night is alive, look in the shadows,
Because now is the time, out in the shadows,
To be somebody else, complete transformation,
From the someone we are in the day;
I hear a noise, there is something going on,
I hear a voice, there is something going on,
I see the boys, there is something going on,
And something is happening to me, yea;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
I love to dance with a stranger and to feel her delight,
And when the dancing is through, I kick off my shoes,
And I listen to the beating of my heart
After the fall, then came the hunger,
In the hearts of us all, ooh such a hunger,
That begins after dark, hides in the heart,
Like a wolf that is waiting inside;
I see a light, there is something going on,
It's getting bright, there is something going on,
I look outside, there is something going on,
And someone is calling to me;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
I love to be with a stranger and to feel her delight,
And when the morning begins, I have to get in,
Before sunlight can fall upon my face;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night
I can't wait anymore, and after midnight,
We must head for the town,
Keep under cover till dawn,
With a bagful of wine;
The night is alive, look in the shadows,
Because now is the time, out in the shadows,
To be somebody else, complete transformation,
From the someone we are in the day;
I hear a noise, there is something going on,
I hear a voice, there is something going on,
I see the boys, there is something going on,
And something is happening to me, yea;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
I love to dance with a stranger and to feel her delight,
And when the dancing is through, I kick off my shoes,
And I listen to the beating of my heart
After the fall, then came the hunger,
In the hearts of us all, ooh such a hunger,
That begins after dark, hides in the heart,
Like a wolf that is waiting inside;
I see a light, there is something going on,
It's getting bright, there is something going on,
I look outside, there is something going on,
And someone is calling to me;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
I love to be with a stranger and to feel her delight,
And when the morning begins, I have to get in,
Before sunlight can fall upon my face;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night
What A Little Moonlight Can Do lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do to you
You're in love
Your heart's fluttering all day long
You only stutter cause your poor tongue
Just will not utter the words
'I love you'
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Wait a while
Till a little moonbeam comes peepin' through
He'll get bored
You can't resist him
All you'll say
When you have kissed him is
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do to you
You're in love
Your heart's fluttering all day long
You only stutter cause your poor tongue
Just will not utter the words
'I love you'
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Wait a while
Till a little moonbeam comes peepin' through
He'll get bored
You can't resist him
All you'll say
When you have kissed him is
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Half The Way lyrics - Crystal Gayle

The Other Side Of Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle
You think you know me pretty well,
But how can you tell,
You never get inside my head.
The times we talk, we never speak,
We play hide and seek
So many things are left unsaid.
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me,
The side of me that reaches out to you.
Sweet thoughts and dreams,
Like drops of rain on rippling streams
That wind and bend,
Rivers with no end,
Flowing on the other side of me.
It seems I always get unstrung
I trip on my tongue
With words that come out something else.
I'm so afraid the things I say
Might chase you away,
I have to hide behind myself.
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me,
The side of me that reaches out to you.
Why must I hide
These feelings that have been denied.
Only you can set me free
See what's on the other side of me.
I have to hide behind myself.
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me,
The side of me that reaches out to you.
Why must I hide
These feelings that have been denied.
Only you can set me free
See what's on the other side of me,
On the other side of me,
On the other side of me.
But how can you tell,
You never get inside my head.
The times we talk, we never speak,
We play hide and seek
So many things are left unsaid.
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me,
The side of me that reaches out to you.
Sweet thoughts and dreams,
Like drops of rain on rippling streams
That wind and bend,
Rivers with no end,
Flowing on the other side of me.
It seems I always get unstrung
I trip on my tongue
With words that come out something else.
I'm so afraid the things I say
Might chase you away,
I have to hide behind myself.
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me,
The side of me that reaches out to you.
Why must I hide
These feelings that have been denied.
Only you can set me free
See what's on the other side of me.
I have to hide behind myself.
Why can't you see
What's on the other side of me,
The side of me that reaches out to you.
Why must I hide
These feelings that have been denied.
Only you can set me free
See what's on the other side of me,
On the other side of me,
On the other side of me.
Dancing The Night Away lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Standin' beside of the ocean
Lookin' out across the water
Everythin' is beautiful
But I still don't feel like I oughta
Things we wanted, not so long ago
I got 'em all now,
But I ain't got you no more
But I remember
How you held me all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
I remember everythin'
Dresses I used to wear
I was so light and graceful
I seem to float right through the air
You looked so funny dancin'
But I loved you anyhow
I guess I could find somebody
To love me like that now
But I remember
How you held me and all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
Standin' beside of the ocean
Lookin' out across the water
Everythin' is beautiful
But I still don't feel like I oughta
Things we wanted, not so long ago
I got 'em all now,
But I ain't got you no more
But I remember
How you held me all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, I can see you dance
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance
Lookin' out across the water
Everythin' is beautiful
But I still don't feel like I oughta
Things we wanted, not so long ago
I got 'em all now,
But I ain't got you no more
But I remember
How you held me all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
I remember everythin'
Dresses I used to wear
I was so light and graceful
I seem to float right through the air
You looked so funny dancin'
But I loved you anyhow
I guess I could find somebody
To love me like that now
But I remember
How you held me and all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
Standin' beside of the ocean
Lookin' out across the water
Everythin' is beautiful
But I still don't feel like I oughta
Things we wanted, not so long ago
I got 'em all now,
But I ain't got you no more
But I remember
How you held me all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, I can see you dance
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance
It's Like We Never Said Goodbye lyrics - Crystal Gayle
I was sure I'd lost my chance for forever
I never dreamed we'd ever meet again
Now here we are alone once more together
Doing all the loving things we used to do back then
Its we like never said goodbye love
You're just a little shy love
But you sure remember how to make me smile
A different bed a different ceiling
But still that same old feeling
As I hold you close I almost want to cry
Cause it feels just like we never said goodbye
Its good to hear you talk about the old times
Its good to hear your sweet voice once again
Right now all I want to do is touch you
And feel the love start happening
The way it happened then
Its we like never said goodbye love
We're both a little shy love
But you sure remember how to make me smile
A different bed a different ceiling
But still that same old feeling
As I hold you close I almost want to cry
Cause it feels just like we never said goodbye
I never dreamed we'd ever meet again
Now here we are alone once more together
Doing all the loving things we used to do back then
Its we like never said goodbye love
You're just a little shy love
But you sure remember how to make me smile
A different bed a different ceiling
But still that same old feeling
As I hold you close I almost want to cry
Cause it feels just like we never said goodbye
Its good to hear you talk about the old times
Its good to hear your sweet voice once again
Right now all I want to do is touch you
And feel the love start happening
The way it happened then
Its we like never said goodbye love
We're both a little shy love
But you sure remember how to make me smile
A different bed a different ceiling
But still that same old feeling
As I hold you close I almost want to cry
Cause it feels just like we never said goodbye
The Blue Side lyrics - Crystal Gayle
It's the same old me
In the same old clothes
Same old face
That you're sure to know
Same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you
It's the same old day
In the same old week
I got the same old shivers
Won't you sail away with me?
Same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you
Oh, the blue side is the true side
For anyone who's had a broken heart
And the blue side is the you side
'Cause you won't give this love another start
Got the same old legs
In the same blue jeans
In the same old head
Lies the same old dream
Same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you
And the blue side is the you side
'Cause you won't give this love another start
It's the same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love
It's the same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you, ooh
In the same old clothes
Same old face
That you're sure to know
Same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you
It's the same old day
In the same old week
I got the same old shivers
Won't you sail away with me?
Same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you
Oh, the blue side is the true side
For anyone who's had a broken heart
And the blue side is the you side
'Cause you won't give this love another start
Got the same old legs
In the same blue jeans
In the same old head
Lies the same old dream
Same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you
And the blue side is the you side
'Cause you won't give this love another start
It's the same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love
It's the same old blue side of me, baby
With the same old love for you, ooh
Your Kisses Will lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Sometimes when I get in this mood
And I'm needing you deep down within
Just the touch of your hand
And the smile on your face
Makes me wanna live again
'Cause all I need is you, babe
To love, to love, to feel
And when nothing else can warm me up
I know your kisses will
The days of our lives go by
And what have we both got to show
'Cause we played all the games
And the fact still remains
Your love's the only thing I know
'Cause all I need is you, babe
To love, to love, to feel
And when nothing else can warm me up
I know your kisses will
And I'm needing you deep down within
Just the touch of your hand
And the smile on your face
Makes me wanna live again
'Cause all I need is you, babe
To love, to love, to feel
And when nothing else can warm me up
I know your kisses will
The days of our lives go by
And what have we both got to show
'Cause we played all the games
And the fact still remains
Your love's the only thing I know
'Cause all I need is you, babe
To love, to love, to feel
And when nothing else can warm me up
I know your kisses will
Your Old Cold Shoulder lyrics - Crystal Gayle
There ain't nothing colder
Than your old cold shoulder
And it's gettin' colder
Like every kiss
You say it's not over
Over and over
But your old cold shoulder
Tells me it is
What we had
We don't know more
We can't feel it anymore
I thought a love like ours would never die
But you get colder
Every day
Every night you turned away
You couldn't say it
Any plainer
If you tried
There ain't nothing colder
Than your old cold shoulder
And it's gettin' colder
Like every kiss
You say it's not over
Over and over
But your old cold shoulder
Tells me it is
Than your old cold shoulder
And it's gettin' colder
Like every kiss
You say it's not over
Over and over
But your old cold shoulder
Tells me it is
What we had
We don't know more
We can't feel it anymore
I thought a love like ours would never die
But you get colder
Every day
Every night you turned away
You couldn't say it
Any plainer
If you tried
There ain't nothing colder
Than your old cold shoulder
And it's gettin' colder
Like every kiss
You say it's not over
Over and over
But your old cold shoulder
Tells me it is
Why Have You Left The One You Left Me For lyrics - Crystal Gayle
Why have you left the one you left me for?
Has she heard, like me, that slammin' door?
Did you leave for good or just get bored?
Why have you left the one you left me for?

Why have you left the one you left me for?
Why have you left the one you left me for?
Has she heard, like me, that slammin' door?
Did you leave for good or just get bored?
Why have you left the one you left me for?
Why have you left the one you left me for?
Why have you left the one you left me for?
Hello I Love You lyrics - Crystal Gayle
You take the darkness out of my night
You've shown your sweet love on me so bright
I won't be lonely, you fill my heart
My blue days have gone forever
Now we'll never part
Hello, I love you
Hello, again
You are my sunshine, shine on again
This is the moment, my life one bored/was
Won't you lay with me darling forever?
Stay and keep me warm until the morning light shines
Hello, I love you
Hello, again
You are my sunshine, shine on again
You've shown your sweet love on me so bright
I won't be lonely, you fill my heart
My blue days have gone forever
Now we'll never part
Hello, I love you
Hello, again
You are my sunshine, shine on again
This is the moment, my life one bored/was
Won't you lay with me darling forever?
Stay and keep me warm until the morning light shines
Hello, I love you
Hello, again
You are my sunshine, shine on again
