Button Off My Shirt, The Truth Is I've Been Known To Lie, Make No Mistake She's Mine, One Night, Somebody Like You, This Time Last Year

"Button Off My Shirt"

 

I've heard the word going 'round town
They say that you're making a fool out of me
Baby it took me some time to come 'round
To realize you were not what you seem
Each day's passing the clock's been my friend
Helped me get back on my feet again
Like a button off my shirt
Just an everyday distraction
You'd be over reacting if you think that I still hurt
You're just a button off my shirt and someday I will replace you

I don't care what I have lost
You got what you deserve
I was down, down, down..I was down
I'm not the first and I won't be the last
To make the mistake of believing in you
I don't intend to live in the past
Just like they say..some you win, some you lose
You never loved me and you made it plain
Now it's my turn and I'm playing your game
Like a button off my shirt
Just an everyday distraction
You'd be over reacting if you think that I still hurt
You're just a button off my shirt and some day I will replace you

I don't care what I have lost
You got what you deserve
Love and affection
You started changing directions
You threw it away
Girl, you threw it away
You never loved me and you made it plain
Now it's my turn to make you understand
Like a button off my shirt
Just an everyday distraction
You'd be over reacting, if you think that I still hurt
You're just a button off my shirt, and someday I will replace you
I don't care what I have lost
You got what you deserved
Like the button off my shirt 
Just an everyday distraction
You'd be over reacting if you think that I still hurt
You're just a button off my shirt and someday I will replace you
I don't care what I have lost you got what you deserved
Like a button off my shirt
Just an everyday distraction
You'd be over reacting, if you think that I still hurt
You're just a button off my shirt and someday I will replace you

"The Truth Is, I've Been Known to Lie"

 

I've told all my friends that I don't miss you
And it didn't hurt when you said goodbye
I said my love for you was over
Truth is, I've been known to lie

I said my heart was never close to breaking
And your mem'ry only stayed a while
I've never dreamed we'd get back together
Truth is, I've been known to lie

I've said that I don't need you
There's just no love at all..naw, naw
I haven't wished that you'd come back
Or even hoped you might call
Well..I've never come close to breaking up
Or had teardrops fill my eyes
And, I've never dreamed we'd get back together, baby
Truth is..I've been known to lie

I've said that I don't need you
Cause ther's just no love, there's just no love at all..no.no..no
And I haven't wished that you'd come back
Or even hoped you might call
Well, I've told all my friends that I don't miss you
And it didn't hurt when you said goodbye
And I said my love for you was over
The truth is..I've been known to lie
Ohhh... the truth is..I've been known to lie

"Make No Mistake, She's Mine"(duet w/Kenny Rogers)

Kim Carnes

Don't call her up anymore
Cause I don't wanna hear your voice
I don't wanna see your face answer her door
Make no mistake, she's mine...she's mine
She only knows how I feel
I only know what she's like when she needs me
Oh, how she needs me..deep in the night
Make no mistake, she's mine..she's mine..no she's mine

Don't get too close when you dance
Cause I don't wanna hear from my friends
You were out on the town
With her in your arms, with her in your arms..her in your arms

Don't include her in your dreams
I don't wanna close my eyes..no
I don't wanna know where she goes
Each night when she leaves me
Make no mistake ,make no mistake... she's mine,, she's mine..no she's mine

Don't call her up anymore
No don't call her up anymore
Don't call her up

"One Night"

 

Call me a fool..send me away
I've got to say, it's you I love
Alone and in love..falling apart
I followed my heart straight to your door
Face to face...with all honesty
I would be grateful if you'd give to me
One night...to lay in your arms
One night..could it be that I was born
To make every dream you ever had come true
Oh, and one night ..oh one night with you
Standing this close
The sound of your voice
Leaves me no choice..I offer my love
Am I so wrong to think you might fall
Cause baby you're all I can think of
Face to face with all honesty
I would be grateful if you'd  give to me
Just one night with you..to lay in your arms
One night..could it be I was born
To make every dream you ever had come true
Oh, one night..oh, one night with you
One night...to lay in your arms
One night...could it be that I was born
To make every dream you had come true
Oh, one night..oh, one night with you
Could it be that I was born for one night

One ni..iiight...I need one night

"Somebody Like You"


Your goodbye..I know will fade away in time
But girl, our love will last forever
Ask me why, that I do all the tears are dry
I still wish we were still together
Love lives on..even after you were gone
So I'm looking for somebody like you
But someone who'll never leave
I'm looking for a love that is real
And not just a memory inside of me
Token lies..I try to say to someone new
But she knows I'm just pretending
In my eyes, she sees the images of you
Like a story with no ending
Love lives on..even after you are gone
So I'm looking for somebody like you
But someone who'll never leave
I'm looking for a love that is real
And not just a memory that will always be inside of me
Ohhh, I'm looking for somebody like you..
But someone who'll never leave
I'm looking for a love that is real
And not just a memory inside of me
All I really need is somebody like you
Somebody like you

"This Time Last Year"

 

This time last year if anyone would have told me you'd be gone
I'd have said they were crazy
This time last year if anyone would have told me
you'd love another
I'd have said..not my baby
If someone would have said I'd be lying here alone
With no address to find you
And no number to phone
I would have never believed it my dear
This time last year
And this time last year if anyone would have told me
You'd be gone..I'd have walked away mad
And this time last year if anyone would have told me
You'd love another..I'd have said
It won't happen
If someone would've said that we wouldn't be together
Except in the picture that stands on my dresser
I would have never believed it, my dear..this time last year
Now night after night..you're here in my dreams
Just like you were back then
But day after day I open my eyes
Only  to find I've lost you again
If someone would've said that we wouldn't be together
Except in the picture that stands on my dresser
I would have never believed it my dear
This time last year
Hmmmm...I would have never believed it, my dear
This time last year
