Ain't it good to have someone to talk to someone you can trust and be proud of
Ain't it good to know he needs you and always does his best to please you
Ain't it good just be in love

Nights are never cold since I've got strong arms to hold me
Warm lips to kiss me and I feel so

Do you think I'm such a fool
To believe everything
That you say is true
That just goes to show
That you really don't know

While you're out painting the town
Do you think I'm home
Just sitting around
Waiting on you
Now who's really the fool

When I first

Oh baby come home baby come home baby come home please come on home
I see your picture on every wall then I realize that you're not here at all
Come home now baby come home
Well I miss you so much come on home come on home
I love you so much come on home

Well all of those y

In the beginning there was love
And there was nothing that love couldn't rise above
Those were such good times
Even the sad times were such good times

In the beginning it was us
And it would be that way until we turned to dust
But now it's you and it's me
So much ha

Aren't we the same two people
Who took those vows that mean nothing now
Didn't we sit at this table as husband and wife
Now we're on opposite sides
Is this the way love ends
With paper and pen

Chorus
It's all there in black and white
All the words that separate

Baby oh baby tell the man at the ticket stand that you've changed your mind
Let me run on out and tell the cab to keep his meter flyin'
Cause if you say goodbye to me babe you're gonna break my mind
Break my mind break my mind
You know I just can't stand to hear them big jet engi

Dear Joe, I hope you get this
You've been very hard to find
I'm sure you know your payments
Are running months behind
So I'm writing just to tell you
Not to worry anymore
I sure could use the money
But I've got my child support
He wakes me up each morning
With

Darling, I'm feeling pretty lonesome
I'd call you on the phone some
But I don't have a dime
Darling, you're so far behind me
Tomorrow's gonna find me
Further down the line
Taking me some paper, pencil in my hand
I'm gonna write

Darling, you know I feel the cold

If you want a do right all day's woman you gotta be a do right all night's man
Take me to heart and I'll always love you and nobody can make me do wrong
Take me for granted leavin' love unshown makes willpower weak and temptation strong
A woman's only human this you should understand

I changed my number, I gave you back my picture
I said you're someone I don't wanna see
I told my friends at work it wasn't worth the hurt
But it's a different story when I go to sleep

Chorus
Dreams don't lie - dreams don't lie
I say I don't love you but the truth comes

Theres a eight line highway out in l.a. headed nowhere
Every day is a rat race their fightin' for first place it's like a nightmare
It's a life of mass confusion its a heavy load
I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road
Theres a new york skyline
But theres no sunsh

Billy had a woman but he treated her bad
Lost the best thing he ever had
Betty got tired of being put down
So she packed her bags and left this town
Gotta love somebody if you wanna them to stay
Treat them right or they'll slip away
Slip away

Chorus
Feed the fir

When you put me down the word got around and it wasn't long until I found
Every man that came around had one thing on his mind
They looked at me like so much dirt which only added to the hurt
I never knew the world was so unkind

I went to work in a tavern the hours were long an

CHORUS]
Fooled by a feeling
I was fooled
I followed my heart
Right into your arms
Like you wanted me to
Fooled by a feeling
Lying with you
I thought it was love
But it was only a touch
And when you left me, I knew
I was fooled by a feeling
Log on t

Oh the games people now every night and every day now
Never meanin' what they say now and never sayin' what they mean
While they wile away the hours in their ivory towers
Until they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine
Lotten da da da da lotten da da a dee

I'm only human
You look so good to me
I want to love you
But I'm not sure I can
I'm gettin' over a man
I'm bein' careful
Just goin' easy
And putting my life in to order
I'm makin' new plans
I'm gettin' over a man

Don't bring me no flowers
Don't call

You've got to give a little take a little if you want to get a little lovin'
And do all the things that make your man feel right
And if you give a little take a little then you're gonna get a lotta lovin'
And you're never gonna ever have to spend another lonely night

If he need

It's just a year today
One year since he went away
So happy birthday, dear heartache
You're one year old today

There'll be a cake tonight
One candle I'm gonna light
So happy birthday, dear heartache
Old love still burns tonight

When he walked out
I felt my

Sure he gives me everything I ask for a kind of love that I never knew
And every night he comes home at the same time
But he'll never ever take the place of you
He kisses me goodbye every morning does the little things you've always used to do
But no matter how he tries it ain't

Hold me
Let me be a little girl again
Don't want a lover now...I need a friend
And a warm, safe place to be
Hold me
Don't want to talk...and I don't want to smile
I only want to hide...and rest awhile
And have you holdin' me
Bridge:
I don't want to think about
