Crystal Gayle Lyrics

Nobody's Angel (1988)

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 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

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

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

"What If We Fall In Love?" (1986)

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

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

"Straight To The Heart" (1986)

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

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

"Nobody Wants To Be Alone" (1985)

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

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

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...

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!

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.

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

"Cage The Songbird" (1983)

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

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

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

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

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

"True Love" (1982)

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

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

'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

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

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

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.

"Hollywood, Tennessee" (1981)

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

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

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.

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

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)

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

"These Days" (1980)

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 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

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

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

"Miss The Mississippi" (1979)

Half The Way lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Half of your love
Is just'not what I'm after.
Part of your world is just'
not what I need!
Some of your time is like'
One glass of water.
It just keeps me thirsty for wine!

(Don't take me half the way!)

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.

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

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

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

"We Should Be Together" (1979)

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

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

"When I Dream" (1978)

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?

Is she what'
You wanted?
Or has time'
Changed your mind?
Has your dream'
Love gone crazy?
And what brings'
You here tonight?

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?

I can see'
You're hurting.
But I'm not sure'
If it's real!
How can I'
Really hold you?
When I don't'
When I don't know how you feel?

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?

Okay, come on in!
You be my lover!
I'll be your friend!
You don't have to tell me, and I won't ask again!

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?
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

Talking In Your Sleep lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Three o'clock in the morning
And it looks like it's going to be another sleepless night
I've been listening to your dreams and getting very low
Wondering what I can do

Maybe I'm being foolish
'Cause I haven't heard you mention anybody's name at all
How I wish I could be sure it's me that turns you on
Each time you close your eyes
I've heard it said that dreamers never lie

You've been talking in your sleep
Sleeping in your dreams
With some sweet lover
Holding on so tight
Loving her the way
You used to love me
Talking in your sleep with loving on your mind

Maybe I'm being foolish
'Cause I haven't heard you mention anybody's name at all
How I wish I could be sure it's me that turns you on
Each time you close your eyes
I've heard it said that dreamers never lie

You've been talking in your sleep
Sleeping in your dreams
With some sweet lover
Holding on so tight
Loving her the way
You used to love me
Talking in your sleep with loving on your mind

You've been talking in your sleep

When I Dream lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I could have a mansion that is higher than the trees
I could have all the gifts I want and never ask please
I could fly to Paris, oh, it's at my beck and call
Why do I go through life with nothing at all?

But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true

I can be the singer or the clown in every room
I can even call someone to take me to the moon
I can put my makeup on and drive the men insane
I can go to bed alone and never know his name

But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true

But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true

Cry Me A River lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Now you say you're lonely, you cry the whole night through;
Well you can cry me a river, cry me a river,
I cried a river over you.

Now you say you're sorry for being so untrue;
Well you can cry me a river, cry me a river,
I cried a river over you.

You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head;
While you never shed a tear;
Remember? I remember all that you said -
Told me love was too plebian,
Told me you were through with me, and,

Now you say you love me; well, just to prove it's true,
You can cry me a river, cry me a river,
I cried a river over you.

Cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you.

Wayward Wind lyrics - Crystal Gayle

In a lonely shack by a railroad track
He spent his younger days
But I guess the sound of the outward bound
Made him a slave to his wand'ring ways

Oh the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And he was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind

Oh I met him there in a border town
We vowed we'd never part
Tho' he tried his best to settle down
Now I'm alone with a broken heart

Though the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And he was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind
The next of kin to the wayward wind

Someday Soon lyrics - Crystal Gayle

There's a young man that I know whose age is twenty-one
Comes from down in southern Colorado
Just out of the service, he's lookin' for his fun
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

My parents can not stand him 'cause he rides the rodeo
My father says that he will leave me cryin'
I would follow him right down the roughest road I know
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

But when he comes to call, my pa ain't got a good word to say
Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in his younger days

So blow, you old Blue Northern, blow my love to me
He's ridin' in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

When he comes to call, my pa ain't got a word to say
Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in his younger days

So blow, you old blue northern, blow my love to me
He's ridin' in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon
Someday soon, goin' with him

I Still Miss Someone lyrics - Crystal Gayle

At my door the leaves are falling
A cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I'd still miss someone

Oh, I never got over those blues eyes
I see them everywhere
How I miss those arms that held me
When all the love was there

I go out on a party
And look for a little fun
But I find a darkened corner
And I still miss someone

Oh, I never got over those blues eyes
I see them everywhere
How I miss those arms that held me
When all the love was there

I wonder if he's sorry
For leavin' what we'd begun
There's someone for me somewhere
And I still miss someone

Oh, I never got over those blues eyes
I see them everywhere
How I miss those arms that held me
When all the love was there

"We Must Believe In Magic" (1977)

Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Don't know when I've been so blue
Don't know what's come over you
You've found someone new
And don't it make my brown eyes blue

I'll be fine when you're gone
I'll just cry all night long
Say it isn't true
And don't it make my brown eyes blue

Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Give me no reasons, give me alibis
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Say anything but don't say goodbye

I didn't mean to treat you bad
Didn't know just what I had
But, honey, now I do
And don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue

Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue

Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue

I Wanna Come Back To You lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I've known a better love for a long long time,
Everybody's, but mine.
It took a little while to see
Just how I wanted love to be.

Now I wanna come back to you,
Do you wanna come back to me?
Share the love that used to be a mystery.
I wanna come back to you,
Do you wanna come back to me?
Remember how good it used to be?

I looked back and I wonder why
We were both so careless with goodbye.
Should have known,
Now later on down the line,
We were bound to change our mind.

Now I wanna come back to you,
Do you wanna come back to me?
Share the love that used to be a mystery.
I wanna come back to you,
Do you wanna come back to me?
Remember how good it used to be?

Now I wanna come back to you,
Do you wanna come back to me?
Share the love that used to be a mystery.
I wanna come back to you,
Do you wanna come back to me?
Remember how good it used to be?

River Road lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Here I go once again
With my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
Yes, I'm chasing my dreams down River Road

Mama said, listen child
You're too old to run wild
You're too big to be fishin' with the boys these days

So I grabbed some clothes and I ran
Stole five dollars from a sugar can
A twelve year old jail breaker runnin' away

Here I go once again
With my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
I'm chasing my dreams down River Road

Well, I married a pretty good man
And he tries to understand
But he knows I've got leavin' on my mind these days

When I get that urge to roam
I'm just like a kid again
The same old jail breaker runnin' away

Here I go once again
With my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
I'm chasing my dreams down River Road

It's All Right With Me lyrics - Crystal Gayle

It's the wrong time and the wrong place
Though your face is charming, it's the wrong face
It's not her face, but such a charming face
That it's all right with me

It's the wrong song in the wrong style
Though your smile is lovely, it's the wrong smile
It's not her smile, but such a lovely smile
So it's all right with me

You can't know how happy I am that we've met
I'm strangely attracted to you
There's someone I'm trying so hard to forget
Don't you want to forget someone, too?

It's the wrong game with the wrong chips
Though your lips are tempting, they're the wrong lips
They're not her lips, but they're such tempting lips
That if some night you're free
Dear, it's all right
Yes, it's all right with me

Green Door lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Midnight
One more night without sleepin' -
Watchin'
Till the morning comes creepin'.
Green door
What's that secret you're keepin'?
There's an old piano and they play it hot behind the green door
Don't know what they're doin'
But they laugh a lot behind the green door.
Wish they'd let me in
So I could find out what's behind the green door.
Knocked once
Tried to tell 'em I'd been there

Door slammed
Hospitality's thin there.
Wonder just what's goin' on in there.
Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smokey cloud
Behind the green door

When I said
Joe sent me

Someone laughed out loud behind the green door.
All I want to do is join the happy crew behind the green door.
Midnight
One more night without sleepin'...
Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smokey cloud...
Wish they'd let me in
So I could find out what's behind the green door.

Funny lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Funny, funny
You don't resemble what I had in mind
Funny as it seems every night you're in my dreams
Ooh baby I never thought that love could be so crazy
Crazy it may be but you're the only one for me
I knew you as a child we both were running wild and love had never crossed our minds
But that was long ago and little did I know love would sneak up from behind
Funny, funny there's no explaining what's come over me
There's nothing I can do but hope that you love me too

I'd miss the glamoured love that twinkles up above
And fades just like a shooting star
But now I'm back on earth
I see how much you're worth and now that we really are
Funny, funny
There's no explaining what's come over me
There's nothing I can do
I'm so in love with you

We Must Believe In Magic lyrics -

Mad is the captain of Alpha Centauri
We must be out of our minds
Still we are shipmates bound for tomorrow
And everyone here's flying blind

Oh, we must believe in magic
We must believe in the guiding hand
If you believe in magic
You'll have the universe at your command

Mad is the crew bound for Alpha Centauri
Dreamers and poets and clowns
Bold is the ship bound for Alpha Centauri
Nothing can turn it around

Oh, we must believe in magic
We must believe in the guiding hand
If you believe in magic
You'll have the universe at your command

Oh, we must believe in magic
We must believe in the guiding hand
If you believe in magic
You'll have the universe at your command

Oh, we must believe in magic
We must believe in the guiding hand
If you believe in magic
You'll have the universe at your command

Oh, we must believe in magic
We must believe in the guiding hand
If you believe in magic
You'll have the universe at your command

"Crystal" (1976)

I'll Do It All Over Again lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Was I right? Was I wrong?
A little too weak - a little too strong?
Was it him? Was it me?
Oh I guess I'll never know

First you're up, then you're down
Oh but the world keeps turning around
Ain't it hard... to find...
Something to hang on to

But I know, that my heart will mend
And I know, that I'll smile again
I'll be back, on my feet and then,
I'll do it all over again

Some you lose, some you win
They say that's the way it's always been
First you laugh, then you cry
Oh but I guess that's life

So you live, and you learn
And never look back at the bridges you burn
And you change, somehow
Oh I'm a little bit wiser now

But I know, that my heart will mend
And I know, that I'll smile again
I'll be back, on my feet and then
I'll do it all over again

But I know, that my heart will mend
And I know, that I'll smile again
I'll be back, on my feet and then
I'll do it all over again
I'll do it all over again!

Ready For The Times To Get Better lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I've got to tell you I've been rackin' my brain
Hopin' to find a way out
I've had enough of this continual rain
Changes are comin', no doubt

It's been a too long time
With no peace of mind
And I'm ready for the times
To get better

You seem to want from me what I cannot give
I feel so lonesome at times
I have a dream that I wish I could live
It's burnin' holes in my mind

It's been a too long time
With no peace of mind
And I'm ready for the times
To get better

It's been a too long time
With no peace of mind
And I'm ready for the times
To get better

You Never Miss A Real Good Thing lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Sitting on my bed a-thinking
Thinking that my heart is sinking
Every day the world goes by
With you gone

All I do is dream about you
Living ain't a life without you
Honey, can you find it in you
To come back home

You never miss a real good thing
Or know what it means
You never see the light of day
Till it goes away
You never want a drink of water
Till the well runs dry
You never miss a real good thing
Till he says goodbye

I guess you must have had your reasons
Maybe you were right in leaving
I know you never found yourself
In what we had

And, honey, you've a right to blame me
Maybe even time would change me
But can't you see the good that's in me
And overlook the bad

You never miss a real good thing
Or know what it means
You never see the light of day
Till it goes away
You never want a drink of water
Till the well runs dry
You never miss a real good thing
Till he says goodbye

You never miss a real good thing
Or know what it means
You never see the light of day
Till it goes away
You never want a drink of water
Till the well runs dry
You never miss a real good thing
Till he says goodbye

Right In The Palm Of Your Hand lyrics - Crystal Gayle

A willin' woman, a willin' man
A five room house and a wedding band
Believer, believer

Once it begins, you know it don't take long
Till like two people in a heartbreak song
And wonder, I wonder

Ain't it just like a woman
Yeah, and ain't it just like a man
Chasin' the rainbow and looking for love
When it's right in the palm of your hand

We can't take back those things we said
So, we watch it pass in separate beds
Changing, we're changing

Too little love and too much pride
You won't give in and neither will I
We're like children, children

Ain't it just like a woman
Yeah, and ain't it just like a man
Chasing the rainbow and looking for love
When it's right in the palm of your hand

Feet on the floor, holding my head
Sitting alone on the edge of the bed
I been thinking, thinking

Trying to find where we went wrong
Just turned around Lord and you were gone
It's over, ohh, it's over

Ain't it just like a woman
Yeah, and ain't it just like a man
Chasing the rainbow and looking for love
When it's right in the palm of your hand

Ain't it just like a woman
Ohh, and ain't it just like a man
Chasing the rainbow, looking for love
When it's right in the palm of your hand

Right in the palm of your hand
Right in the palm of your hand

"Somebody Loves You" (1975)

I'll Get Over You lyrics - Crystal Gayle

One thing 'bout this heart of mine
All my hurts got a mending time
It don't leave no scars behind
I'll get over you
I'll find me a guy one day
Who's not scared to give his heart away
When I do It's safe to say that I'll get over you

I'll get over you
I'll get through it when I do
I'll be good as new
When I get over you

From now on think Ill lay low
I'll talk fast but Ill move slow
You taught me all I need to know
'bout gettin over you
Sometimes I think I love you still
Wonder if I always will
But I know its just until I get over you

I'll get over you
I'll get through it when I do
I'll be good as new
When I get over you

Sometimes think I love you still
Wonder if I always will
Love for you's so hard to kill
But I'll get over you

I'll get over you
I'll get through it when I do
I'll be good as new
When I get over you

I'll get over you
I'll get through it when I do
I'll be good as new
When I get over you

I'll get over you
I'll get through it when I do
I'll be good as new
When I get over you

I'll get over you
I'll get through it when I do
I'll be good as new
When I get over you

Somebody Loves You lyrics - Crystal Gayle

It's been a long time since you went away
I stop to think of you most every day
With all my heart I'm hoping you're okay
Guess who loves you, somebody loves you

I couldn't reach you by the U.S. mail
You didn't leave a very easy trail
I tried to telephone to no avail
Guess who loves you, somebody loves you
I do

I know the matter is the game I played
I'll never reach you any other way
So I send this one thought to you every day
Guess who loves you, somebody loves you
I do

Dreaming My Dreams With You lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I hope that I won't be that wrong anymore
I hope that I've learned this time
I hope that I find what I'm reaching for
The way that it is in my mind

Someday I'll get over you
I'll live to see it all through
But I'll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you

I won't let it change me
Not if I can
I'd rather believe in love
And give it away
As much as I can
To those that I'm fondest of

Someday I'll get over you
I'll live to see it all through
But I'll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you

Someday I'll get over you
I'll live to see it all through
But I'll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you

"Crystal Gayle" (1975)

Wrong Road Again lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I can't seen to learn not to love you
You get to me everytime
You're someone I just can't say no to
And you sure put a change in my mind

Here I go down that wrong road again
Goin' back where I've already been
Even knowin' where it will end
Here I go down that wrong road again

Though I've seen the way that you're weavin'
You and your soft easy lines
Before I stop to think I'm believin'
And I'm fallin' for you one more time

Here I go down that wrong road again
Goin' back where I've already been
Even knowin' where it will end
Here I go down that wrong road again

Here I go down that wrong road again
Goin' back where I've already been
Even knowin' where it will end
Here I go down that wrong road again

A Woman's Heart (Is A Handy Place To Be) lyrics - Crystal Gayle

He's a charmer
He's broken every heart that's tried to hold him
It's tearin' me apart to know I want him
Knowin' I can never tell him so

He's a loner
Runnin' from a friend to find a stranger
It makes me weak, it makes me wonder
Will I ever make it on my own
Will I ever make it on my own

A woman's heart's a handy place to be
For a man afraid of givin' and fightin' to be free
Yes a woman's heart's a handy place to be
I just wish the heart that's broken now was not a part of me

But I'm a lover
Lovers often leave us in forever
Though he's the best I ever had there'll be another
And I'll open up my heart again

A woman's heart's a handy place to be
For a man afraid of givin' and fightin' to be free
Yes a woman's heart's a handy place to be
I just wish the heart that's broken now was not a part of me
I just wish the heart that's broken now was not a part of me

When I Dream lyrics - Crystal Gayle

This Is My Year For Mexico lyrics -

You no longer notice if I'm wearin' perfume
I seldom hear a lovin' word from you
Your attention's wrapped up in the mornin' paper
And I feel a restless yearnin' for somethin' new.

We used to whisper love across the nighttime
Now we never whisper nor recall
Our love is left upon the shelf of winter
Where the sunlight never touches it at all.

It's a habit for us to be together
We sit and watch the deadly shadows grow
Every day last year I left for California
This is my year for Mexico.

Your back is turned to me while you are reading
I close my eyes while I pretend to doze
From the road I hear the sound of passing traffic
Some of them are bound for Mexico.

It's a habit for us to be together
We sit and watch the deadly shadows grow
Every day last year I left for California
This is my year for Mexico.

I Fall To Pieces lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I fall to pieces
Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces
How can I be just your friend

You want me to act like we've never kissed
You want me to forget, pretend we've never met
And I've tried and I've tried but I haven't yet
You walk by, and I fall to pieces

I fall to pieces
Each time someone speaks your name
I fall to pieces
Time only adds to the flame

You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who'll love me, too, the way you used to do
But each time I go out with someone new
You walk by and I fall to pieces

(I fall to pieces)
Each time someone speaks your name
(I fall to pieces)
Time only adds to the flame

You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who'll love me too, the way you used to do
But each time I go out with someone new
You walk by and I fall to pieces

Just A Closer Walk With Thee lyrics - Crystal Gayle

I am weak but Thou
Art strong Jesus
Keep me
From all wrong
I'll be satisfied

As long as I walk
Let me walk
Close to Thee
Just a closer walk
With Thee grant it

Jesus is my plea
Daily walking
Close to Thee
Let it be dear
Lord let it be

When my feeble life
Is o'er time for me
Shall be no more
Guide me gently safely
O'er to Thy kingdom
Shores to Thy shores
Just a closer walk

I am weak but Thou
Art strong Jesus
Keep me
From all wrong
I'll be satisfied

As long as I walk
Let me walk
Close to Thee
Just a closer walk
With Thee grant it

Jesus is my plea
Daily walking
Close to Thee
Let it be dear
Lord let it be

When my feeble life
Is o'er time for me
Shall be no more
Guide me gently safely
O'er to Thy kingdom
Shores to Thy shores
Just a closer walk

Sentimental Journey lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories
Got my bag
Got my reservation
Spent each dime
I could afford
Like a child
In wild anticipation
Long to hear that
A-all aboard
Seven
That's the time we leave
At seven
I'll be waitin' up for
Heaven
Countin' every mile
Of railroad track
That takes me back
Never thought
My heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam
Gotta take that sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
Sentimental journey

Silver Bells lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas

Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear

Silver bells, silver bells
(Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling hear them ring
(Ring-a-ling, hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights, even stop lights
Blink of bright red an' green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures

Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you'll hear

Silver bells, silver bells
(Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling hear them ring
(Ring-a-ling, hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day

Silver bells, silver bells
(Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling hear them ring
(Ring-a-ling, hear them ring)
Soon

Smile lyrics - Crystal Gayle

Smile
Though your heart is aching
Smile
Even though it's breaking
When there are clouds
In the sky,
You'll get by
If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile
And maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun
Come shining through
For you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear
May be ever so near
That's the time
You must keep on trying
Smile
What's the use of crying?
You'll find that life
Is still worth-while
If you just smile
Smile

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear
May be ever so near
That's the time
You must keep on trying
Smile,
What's the use of crying?
You'll find that life
Is still worth-while
If you just smile
Keep on smiling
Oh yeah
Smile
Never, never, never stop smile
Smile
