1. These Days

Hey baby, is that you?
Wow your hair got so long
Yeah, yeah I love it, I really do
Norma Jean, ain't that the song we'd sing in the car
Driving down town, top down
Making the rounds
Checking out the bands on Doheny Ave.

Yeah, life throws you curves
But you learned to swerve
Me, I swung and I missed
And the next thing you know
I'm reminiscin'
Dreamin' old dreams
Wishing old wishes, like you would be back again

I wake up and teardrops
They fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to
And then
I head off to my job
Guess not much has changed
Punch the clock
Head for home
Check the phone, just in case
Go to bed, dream of you
That's what I'm doing these days

Someone told me
After college, you ran off to Vegas
and married a rodeo cowboy, wow
That ain't the girl I knew
Me, I've been a few places
Mostly here and there, once or twice
Still sorting out life but I'm doing alright
Yeah it's good to see you too

Well hey girl, you're late
And those planes they don't wait
But if you ever come back around
This sleepy old town
Promise me you'll stop in
To see an old friend
But until then...

I wake up and teardrops
They fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to
And then
I head off to my job
Guess not much has changed
Punch the clock
Head for home
Check the phone, just in case
Go to bed, dream of you
That's what I'm doing these days

I wake up and teardrops
They fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to and then
I head off to my job
Guess not much has changed
Punch the clock
Head for home
Check the phone just in case
Go to bed dream of you that's what I'm doing these....

I wake up and teardrops
They fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to
And then...

I wake up and teardrops
They fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to
And then...

2. Too Good Is True

I guess it's cause and effect
Your heart and mine
The way that we connect
Keeps blowing my mind
There you go again
It never ends
What you do to me

CHORUS:
That I have seen the light of day
Love is finally going my way
Is it too good to be true
Give me one more kiss
One more touch
Baby, I just can't get enough of you
This time, too good is true

All of a sudden
I'm not who I used to be
I had my heart locked
But you held the key
And you find a way, everyday
To show me even more

(CHORUS)

Some people say we're too good to be true
But they don't get to be loved by you

(CHORUS)

3. I Melt

When you light those candles
Up there on that mantel, setting the mood
well, I just lie there staring
Silently preparing to love on you
well, I can feel the heat from across the room
Ain't it wild what a little flame can make you wanna do

Chorus
I melt every time you look at me that way
It never fails, anytime, any place
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt
I melt

Don't know how you do it
I love the way I lose it, every time
Whats even better
Is knowing that forever you're all mine
The closer you get, the more my body aches
One little stare from you is all it takes

Chorus 2x
I melt every time you look at me that way
It never fails, anytime, any place
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt
I melt

Every time you look at me the way
I melt, I melt

4. Mayberry

Sometimes it feels like this world is spinning faster
Than it did in the old days
So naturally, we have more natural disasters
From the strain of a fast pace
Sunday was a day of rest
Now, it’s one more day for progress
And we can’t slow down ‘cause more is best
It’s all an endless process

Chorus
(Well) I miss sleeping
Sitting on the porch drinking ice-cold cherry Coke
Where everything is black and white
duh na na na na na na na na
Picking on a six string
Where people pass by and you call them by their first name
Watching the clouds roll by
Bye, bye

Sometimes I can hear this old earth shouting
Through the trees as the wind blows
That’s when I climb up here on this mountain
To look through God’s window
Now I can’t fly
But I got two feet that get me high up here
Above the noise and city streets
My worries disappear

(Repeat Chorus)
(Well) I miss Mayberry
Sitting on the porch drinking ice-cold cherry Coke
Where everything is black and white
duh na na na na na na na na
Picking on a six string
Where people pass by and you call them by their first name
Watching the clouds roll by
Bye, bye

Bridge
Sometimes I dream I’m driving down an old dirt road
Not even listed on a map
I pass a dad and son carrying a fishing pole
But I always wake up every time I try to turn back

(Repeat Chorus)
(Well) I miss Mayberry
Sitting on the porch drinking ice-cold cherry Coke
Where everything is black and white
duh na na na na na na na na
Picking on a six string
Where people pass by and you call them by their first name
Watching the clouds roll by
Bye, bye

Bye, bye
(I miss Mayberry, I miss Mayberry

5. Love You Out Loud

I have always been a little shy
I've always been the quiet type till now
And I never let my feelings show
I never let anybody know
Just how much I was so deep in love
But now that you're in my arms

Chorus
I'm gonna stand on a rooftop
Climb up a mountaintop
Baby, scream and shout
I wanna sing it on the radio and
Show it on a video
Baby, leave no doubt
I want the whole world to know just what I'm all about
I love to love you out loud

You keep bringing out the free in me
What you do to my heart just makes me melt
And I, I don't think I can resist
But I've never been one to kiss and tell
A love this true can't be subdued
So I'm gonna let out a yell

Chorus
I'm gonna stand on a rooftop
Climb up a mountaintop
Baby, scream and shout
I wanna sing it on the radio and
Show it on a video
Baby, leave no doubt
I want the whole world to know just what I'm all about
I love to love you out loud

Bridge
Baby, I want the whole world to see
Just how good your love looks on me

Chorus
I'm gonna stand on a rooftop
Climb up a mountaintop
Baby, scream and shout
I wanna sing it on the radio and
Show it on a video
Baby, leave no doubt
I want the whole world to know (world to know)
just what I'm all about
I love to love you out loud

Baby, I love to love you out loud
Yeah, I love to love you out loud

6. Dry County Girl

A tall drink of water in a cotton dress
That preacher's daughter, she sure is blessed
As sunlight passes through the fabric so soft
You can imagine what goes through my thoughts
She says there'll be time for all of that
When my dress is white and your suit is black

Chorus
There's so many fish in the sea
And I know it's a great big world
But I couldn't help but fall in love so hard
For my dry county girl
For my dry county girl, yeah

It's widely known that I have my flaws
While she's the Joan of Arkansas
Her lips won't touch the demon wine
But her eyes are full of pure moonshine
And I get drunk just holding her hand
I get high thinking I could be her man

Chorus
There's so many fish in the sea
And I know it's a great big world
But I couldn't help but fall in love so hard
For my dry county girl
For my dry county girl, yeah

For my dry county girl
Lord, I fell so hard
For my dry county girl, yeah
Yeah, talking about my

(FADE)

7. Like I Am

lying here with you,
I watch you while you sleep.
the dawn is closing in,
with every breath you breathe.

I can feel the change,
the change you made in me.
but will I ever see,
all the things you see in me!

CHORUS
when you say that I'm one of a kind
Baby I don't see it but you believe
that I'm so strong and true, I promise you,
I'll try to be that kind of man,
because you love me like I am.

When it comes to love,
I may not know the rules.
but there's one thing I know,
my heart belongs to you, just you...

(repeat chorus)

BRIDGE
you show me you love me,
with a fire that burns deep inside.

(repeat chorus twice)

-I am
I'll never understand
I don't think I'll ever understand,
why you love me,
why you love me just like I am!

8. You

Chorus
Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without
You

I was searching for something I thought
I would never find
Losing my mind
In and Out of bad love
I thought I was born to lose
Then came you
I thought I knew what the real thing was
But nothing shakes me like your love does
I've been hypnotized
Now I realize

Chorus
Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without,
You

Every time I get lost
In a temperamental mood
You still stay cool
Just when I think that this
Life's about to drive me insane
You take the reins
Every time I feel I'm drifting off course
You're my compass, you're my one true north
In a mix up world
You make sense to me girl

Chorus
Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without,
You

Bridge
Yeah, every road girl
Leads me to you
And baby, that's all I need to know

Chorus 2x
Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without,
You

Every road that I've been down in my life
Every time I feel like taking off
Every road that I've been down in my life
Every road girl, leads me to you
Yes it did, yes it did
Every road girl
Every road leads me to you

(FADE)

9. Fallin' Upside Down

There's no gravity up here
It's kind of hard to explain
Every time I'm holding you
It's like backwards rain, yeah

Chorus
You lift me up like a kite on a string
Like a bird on newfound wings
So high on you, I'm floating and flying around
Your love's like fallin' upside down

You've got me so lightheaded
It's a dizzy mood
Spinning uncontrollably
And gaining altitude

Chorus
You lift me up like a kite on a string
Like a bird on newfound wings
So high on you, I'm floating and flying around
Your love's like fallin' upside down

Bridge
Look at me
Used to be, I could keep my feet
On the ground
When you said you could take me higher
You weren't playing around
(You weren't playing around)

Chorus
You lift me up like a kite on a string
Like a bird on newfound wings
So high on you, I'm floating and flying around
Your love's like fallin' upside down

10. Shine On

I was lost in darkness and sinking sand
Well I was barely nothing, a broken man
But you picked up the pieces of my heart in your hand
Then you came and showed to me love's second chance

Chorus:
Shine on, shine on, shine on me
Whenever something's missing
You're exactly what I need
Your love has shown me the light and now I finally see
So shine on, shine on, shine on me, yeah

Lord knows that I'm not perfect but I sure do try
And I see that man that I can be in your eyes
Well there are times I still get lost in yesterday
But you put the past behind me and you light my way

Chorus:
Shine on, shine on, shine on me
Whenever something's missing
You're exactly what I need
Your love has shown me the light and now I finally see
So shine on, shine on, shine on me, yeah

Shine on (let you love shine)
Shine on (on me)
Shine all your love on me, yeah (Your love on me)
Shine all your love on me, yeah

Chorus:
Shine on, shine on, shine on me
Whenever something's missing
You're exactly what I need
Your love has shown me the light and now I finally see
So shine on, shine on, shine on me, yeah

Shine on, shine on, shine on me

Won't you keep on shining, yeah
Won't you keep on shining your love
Down on me, baby
Won't you keep on shining, yeah
Won't you keep on shining, you love down on me
Yeah, you're exactly what I need, baby
Yeah, you are

11. My Worst Fear

Last night you gave me a kiss
You didn't know it, but I was awake when you did
You were quiet, you were gonna let me sleep
So i just laid there pretending to be
You said some things you didn't know I could hear
And the words "I love you" never sounded so sincere

Chorus
It's gonna make it hard to tell you that I'm leaving
Now that I know just how much you care
You finally gave me one good reason not to go
But staying here is my worst fear

This morning I rolled out of bed
Recalling all the sweet things you said
This was the day I was gonna hurt you bad
Called out your name, but you didn't answer back
I searched the house to find out what was wrong
Like a ton of bricks, it hit me you were gone

Chorus
It's gonna make it hard to tell you that I'm leaving
Now that I know just how much you care
You finally gave me one good reason not to go
But staying here is my worst fear

Bridge
All along I knew that there was something missing
And only one thing left to do
I had to leave behind this life that we'd been living
But the only thing that left was you

Second chorus
It's gonna make it hard to tell you that I'm leaving
Now that I know just how much you care
You finally gave me one good reason not to go
But being alone is my worst fear
And staying here is my worst fear
