Lyrics: [Verse 1] I've put it all behind me Nothing left to do or doubt Some may say But every silver lining always seems to have a cloud That comes my way [Verse 2] Anticipated pleasure or unexpected pain No choice I fear And love is hard to measure hidden in the rain That's why you'll find me [Chorus] Here all alone and still wondering why Waiting inside for the cold to get colder And here where it's clear that I've wasted my time Hoping to fly cause it's almost over now [Verse 3] People come together, people go their own way Love conquers few And I'll do whatever, I'll say what I need to say Just not for you [Chorus] How many days should I smile with a frown? Cause you're not around with the sun on your shoulders And how many nights must I wake up alone? And know in my soul that it's almost over now [Outro] Our love is like a paper airplane flying in the folded wind Riding high, dipping low And innocence is fair game, I'm hoping I can hold it in Our love will die, I know

Looks like the tears that I cry Fallin' down like rain on the ground Every time you say goodbye Take a look around now Why don't you feel The way that cold wind stings and bites And your words just are like arrows through my heart Every time you say goodbye [Chorus] There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate I read between the lines of words you can't disguise Love has gone away and put these tears in my eyes [Verse 2] Look at the sky, baby, see how it cries? Ain't it just like my tears Fallin' down like rain on the ground Every time you say goodbye [Chorus] There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate I read between the lines of words you can't disguise Love has gone away and put these tears in my eyes There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate I read between the lines of words you can't disguise Love has gone away and put these tears in my eyes

Lyrics: It's been a long time coming As you shed a lonesome tear. Now you're in a wonderama, I wonder what you're doing here. The flame no longer flickers. You're feeling just like a fool. You keep staring into your liquour, Wondering what to do. I don't hardly know you, But I'd be willing to show you I know a way to make you smile. Let me touch you for a while. I'm gonna ruin my black mascara. You're drinking whiskey when it should be wine. You keep looking into that mirror, But to me you're looking really fine. I don't hardly know you, But I'd be willing to show you I know a way to make you laugh at that cowgirl As she's walking out your door. I know a way to make you smile Just let me whisper things You've never heard before. Just let me touch you, baby, Just let me touch you for a while. I don't hardly know you, But I'd be willing to show you I know a way to make you smile. It's been a long time; Let me touch you for a while.
