Hope keeps me wide awake see I'm hoping that I see your face in the morning, wether I leave or stay cause you're an angel I know it's cliche but pretty little lady I honestly think you might be, from way away away out of town like high, above the clouds take me with you tonight, wont look down Baby, there's a bright light reflecting in your eyes and I could leave it all behind tonight cause baby if I'm leaving then I'll be scared of nothing cause' it won't be the first time tonight I go into the light We wrote our names in the stars then I drove you home in my car I was leaving, but didn't make it very far high above the clouds if you'd take me with you tonight, won't look down Baby, there's a bright light reflecting in your eyes and I could leave it all behind tonight cause baby if I'm leaving then I'll be scared of nothing cause' it won't be the first time tonight I go into the light

Shoebox 04:12
I found your picture in a shoebox beneath my bed you always hated your smile,but I gotta' admit that from your pretty little toes, to your big bright eyes you know I'm falling for ya, every time I look back at what we had the nights we spent, I wont forget can we go back to where we began before you left me with nothing but a photograph So I took your picture out, it took me back to rolling windows down and your feet on the dash we had everything we'de need but you had this hold on your heart from a lover before me who tore it apart I look back at what we had the nights we spent, I wont forget can we go back to where we began before you left me with nothing but a photograph The 22nd of August when I took it just to make you laugh then you took it from me and hid it the day that you left a years passed exactly thats when I see the address on the back then I'm in my car two hours your door I knock, you smile and say you found my picture in that shoebox I look back at what we had the nights we spent, I wont forget can we go back to where we began before you left me with nothing but a photograph

Rescued 04:11
Looking back baby girl you know I regret not saying those three words I should'a said every word that you deserved to hear from my chest never made it to your ear I let you drive out of my life and I'm still wondering why If I could turn back time I wouldn't be her now I prolly' would'a died chasing your car down through the night and the rain but still I find myself sayin' turn back time I'd know what to do but at that moment I was so confused because I never knew if you wanted to be rescued You looked back so fast as you left ya made my heart stop and girl you made me loose my breath I reached out but you were outta' reach you moved so quick that forgot to speak I let you drive out of my life and I'm still wondering why If I could turn back time I wouldn't be her now I prolly' would'a died chasing your car down through the night and the rain but still I find myself sayin' turn back time I'd know what to do but at that moment I was so confused because I never knew if you wanted to be rescued Looking back baby girl you know I regret Turn back time I let you drive Because I never knew if you wanted to be rescued

Your Fool 04:23
Your SMILE makes mine light up I don't know why A simple melody a SMILE on your face a perfect summer's breeze and dancin' in the rain I don't wonder what it's like on the other side cause' I've got all I need here with you by my side the bluest skies have got me thinking That I'm gonna be your fool Cause' I'm crazy for you The way she twirls her hair the way she says my name the yellow dress she wears I'm livin' up a dream and if I'm asleep don't wake me please don't shake me up cause' I've got this feelin' and this feelin' is more than enough So I'm gonna be your fool cause' I'm crazy for you The timings right all day all night I'm thinking your gold let's take a ride through the city lights cause life is beautiful The timings right all day all night I'm thinking your gold so take a ride through the city lights cause life is beautiful the way she smiles at me everytime I sing I'm gonne be your fool cause' I'm crazy for you Your smile make mine light up I don't know why Your eyes make mine light up bright as the sky bright as the night night sky your eyes make mine light up I'm crazy for you

It was late when she called me tired, but she couldn't sleep She said "sing me a melody that helps me close my eyes" and these were the first words in my mind Sleep take her away from everything thats keeping her awake just listen to my voice and know that your safe to fall into your dreams as I sing you to sleep The years pass and so much has changed now I come home and she's there waiting for the one thing that's always stayed true before she falls asleep I sing this through Sleep take her away from everything thats keeping her awake just listen to my voice and know that your safe to fall into your dreams as I sing you to sleep Time never seems to stop been married fifty years with kids all grown up I've reached my time laying in my bed she put her hands in mine and softly sang Sleep take him away from everything thats keeping him awake I listen to her voice and know that I'm safe to fall into my dreams as she sings you to sleep
