1. Blue Side Of Town

Rain on my window
Tears in my eyes
Why must I always
Be the one that's left with pride
You say it's over
You don't want me around
Well I'm leavin' you baby
For the blue side of town

Well there's a honky tonk
Where the lights are low
And they play the saddest songs
Dark shadows fall like broken dreams
On the lost and lonely ones
And there's heartbreak hotel
Yes I know it well
I hang around
Blue side of town

You think I'm lonely
Well that's for sure
But don't worry baby
I've been there before
And if you need me
Well, I can be found
Hiding my heartache
On the blue side of town

Well there's a honky tonk
Where the lights are low
And they play the saddest songs
Dark shadows fall like broken dreams
On the lost and lonely ones
And there's heartbreak hotel
Yes I know it well
I hang around
Blue side of town

My hearts forsaken
You've been untrue
It hurts me baby
But I know just what to do
I'll pack my suitcase
And I'll see you around
Take all my troubles
To the blue side of town

Well there's a honky tonk
Where the lights are low
And they play the saddest songs
Dark shadows fall like broken dreams
On the lost and lonely ones
And there's heartbreak hotel
Yes I know it well
I hang around
Blue side of town
I hang around
Blue side of town

2. I Won't Gamble With Your Love

I've taken alot of chances
I've drawn to alot of bad cards
There was nothin I minded losing
So I never took losing to hard

Well since I won your love
I guess I've changed my ways
There's alot of games in this old town
But there's one I no longer play

I won't gamble with your love
I don't care to risk that much
One thing you can be sure of
I won't gamble with your love

How many times did I play for sevens
When I gave those dice a roll
I know all of my prayers were answered
Sometimes yes
But alot of times no

Now I know all I was after
Could be mine forever more
There are no other pleasures
I would trade my treasures for

I won't gamble with your love
I don't care to risk that much
One thing you can be sure of
I won't gamble with your love

These boys they come around
Say baby take a chance on me
I say no
They say why not?
Tell um I'm pretty happy with what I got
Anything else would be another long shot

I won't gamble with your love
I don't care to risk that much
One thing you can be sure of
I won't gamble with your love
I won't gamble with your love

3. Go On

Maybe in time
It'll get easier
When there's been enough time
Between us
Right now it seems so hard
To face that we're apart
And to believe one day
We'll put these years behind us

And we can go on living our lives
Like there's no yesterday
Like there's no hurt
And nothing has gone wrong
Go on living our lives
Like there's no memories
It won't be easy to do
But we gotta go on

There was a time
When ours was a stronger love
Now we find it wasn't strong enough
When the feeling isn't there
And all that's left are tears to share
We can think about the time
Our love was better
We gotta go on living our lives
Like there's no yesterday
Like there's no hurt
And nothing has gone wrong
Go on living our lives
Like there's no memories
It won't be easy to do
But we gotta go on

It won't be easy to do
But we gotta go on

4. If You Think

If you think I don't care
Just because I'm not there
Then my love
You had better think again

And if you think
There's someone knew
Who can take the place of you
Then my love
You had better think again

You live deep inside of me
As deep as I can see
There's no denying
I guess I'm feeling kind of blue
I'm lonely without you
Until we meet again

If you think my love will change
Just because you're away
Then my love
You had better think again

Send me a letter everyday
Send your love my way
And keep me smilin
Tell me all the things you do
And I will do it too
Until we meet again

If you think I don't care
Just because I'm not there
Then my love
You had better think again

Then my love
You had better think again

Then my love
You had better think again

5. Chains

Bought a ticket to Seattle but I can't get to the plane
Everytime I leave you I keep running out of chain
I hunger for your love it never gives me any slack
But if I ever break away, I'm never coming back to these

Chains, chains, shackles and chains
No matter what it takes some day I'm gonna break these
Chains, chains, shackles and chains
These love taking, heart breaking, cold, hard, lonely making chains

You never try to hold me 'till you see me walking out
I guess you'd rather be with me than ever be without
You call me back and kiss me and my heart begins to sink
When I know that all you're doing's taking up another link in these

Chains, chains, shackles and chains
No matter what it takes some day I'm gonna break these
Chains, chains, shackles and chains
These love taking, heart breaking, cold, hard, lonely making chains

Love was never meant to be a one - way street
I was never meant to be falling at your feet
You got me where you want me and I don't know what to do
You don't belong to me but I belong to you in these

Chains, chains, shackles and chains
No matter what it takes some day I'm gonna break these
Chains, chains, shackles and chains
These love taking, heart breaking, cold, hard, lonely making chains

6. Don't Toss Us Away

Well it seems that everyone we know
The loves grown cold, while ours stand the storm
One by one they break
It such a shame
And now you say you want to do the same

Don't toss us away
So thoughtlessly
It just ain't right
Oh can't you see?
I still love you
I want you to stay
Darlin please don't toss us away

Well just think of all that we been through
The world we're building... me and you
How could all those years be tossed away
In just one moment... in just one day

Don't toss us away
It just ain't right
To let love die without a fight
I still love you
I want you to stay
Darlin please don't toss us away

So now I'm asking once again
To understand, to be my friend
Oh it hurts so bad to think you'd go
But still the same, I love you so

Don't toss us away
So thoughtlessly
It just ain't right
Oh can't you see?
I still love you
I want you to stay
Darlin please, don't toss us away

Oh darlin please
Don't toss us away

7. Lonely Side Of Love, The

I can't make these heartaches go away
He's always on my mind
The memories of the love we had
Don't fade away with time
What is this crazy road
I'm on
I don't understand

What makes two people
Fall in love
What goods a promise
When the love is gone
Where do you go
When you find yourself
On the lonely side of love

The rain is fallin' to the ground
The neon rainbows glow
I see us standing far away
Where peaceful waters flow
It's the only dream that I have left
That I can hold on to

Now am I right or am I wrong
For holdin' on to what is gone
And what's left to believe in
On the lonely side of love

I can't make these heartaches go away
He's always on my mind
The memories of the love we had
Don't fade away with time
What is this crazy road
That I'm on
I don't understand

What makes two people fall in love
What goods a promise
When the love is gone
Where do you go when you find yourself
On the lonely side of love

Now am I right or am I wrong
Holding on to what is gone
And what's left to believe in
On the lonely side of love

8. I'll Never Grow Tired Of You

It's been a long time
Since you drifted away
Now there's nothing to live for it seems
But darlin' no matter where you are tonight
Your here with me in my dreams

I'll never grow tired of you sweetheart
No matter what you may do
They tell me lately
Your livin' so wrong
But I'll never grow tired of you

I see your two blue eyes
Each night in my dreams
When I awake you're not there
Come back to me
And let's start life anew
Losing you's so hard to bear

I'll never grow tired of you sweetheart
No matter what you may do
They tell me lately
Your livin' so wrong
But I'll never grow tired of you

I still wonder why
You drifted away
From the happiness
That might have been
I vision the time
Some day you'd be mine
And treasure the love
I can't win

I'll never grow tired of you sweetheart
No matter what you may do
They tell me lately
Your livin' so wrong
But I'll never grow tired of you

9. Timber I'm Falling In Love

Right time, the right place
The right body, the right face
Timber I'm falling in love

It started slow, it's coming fast
I got a feelin it's gonna last
Timber I'm falling in love

You're so pretty, look so sweet
Your love's sweepin me off of my feet
You're the only one I'm dreamin of
I can't believe that I'm falling in love

Who knows how love starts
I woke up with you in my heart
Timber I'm falling in love

You're so pretty, look so sweet
Your love's sweepin me off of my feet
You're the only one I'm dreamin of
I can't believe that I'm falling in love

Timber I'm falling in love
Timber I'm falling in love
Timber I'm falling in love

10. I'm On Your Side

Latley things haven't been goin' our way
And this road seems to get steeper every day
You crawl inside yourself
When I pull you out we fight
Seems like you've forgotten
I'm on your side

Do you think it makes you more of a man
To shoulder the worry and shield me if you can
But its this wall of silence
That's enough to make me scream
Tear it down and you'll find out
We're on the same team

I'm on your side when you don't know where to turn
Look to the left or just to the right
Turn to me when you can't turn off the lights
I'm on your side

Don't you remember how close we used to be
When you come home and vent your heart and soul to me

I'm on your side
When you don't know where to turn
Look to the left or just to the right
Turn to me when you can't turn off the lights
I'm on your side

Turn to me when you can't turn off the lights
I'm on your side
