While we're young and beautiful,
Kiss me like you mean it,
Treat me like I'm special,
Cover me with sweetness,
Cause a time will come,
When we're not so young, and beautiful,
While we're young and beautiful,
Living free and easy,
Here without a worry,
Dancing in our bare feet,
Cause when the summer's done,
We might not be so young, and beautiful.

It's a crazy ride,
And baby, you and I,
Are keeping our sweet love alive,
Tonight, while we're young and beautiful.

While we're young and beautiful,
We'll party down on Main street,
Wearing next to nothing,
Feeling every heart beat,
Having fun, while we're still young and beautiful.

It's a crazy ride,
And baby, you and I,
Are keeping our sweet love alive,
Tonight, while we're young and beautiful.

Beautiful,
Beautiful,
Young and beautiful,
Beautiful,
Beautiful,
Young and beautiful.

It's a crazy ride,
And baby, you and I,
Are keeping our sweet love alive,
Tonight, while we're young and beautiful.
Oh, so beautiful.

While we're young and beautiful,
Cover me with sweetness,
While we're young and beautiful,
Kiss me like you mean it,
Like you mean it,
Like you mean it,
Like you mean it,
Like you do,
Oh, yeah,
Oh so beautiful.

Right now he's probably slow dancin'
with a bleached-blond tramp,
and she's probably getting frisky
right now, he's probably buying her some
fruity little drink
cause she can't shoot whiskey...
Right now, he's probably up behind her
with a pool-stick,
showin' her how to shoot a combo.
And he don't know

I dug my key into the side
of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats...
I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
And maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

Right now, she's probably up singin' some
white-trash version of Shania kareoke..
Right now, she's probably sayin' 'I'm drunk'
and he's a thinkin' that he's gonna get lucky,
Right now, he's probably dabbin'on
3 dollars worth of that bathroom cologne...
Oh and he don't know ohhh...

That I dug my key into the side
of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats,
I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
And maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

I mighta saved a little trouble for the next girl,
Cause the next time that he cheats...
Oh, you know it won't be on me!

Nooo... not on me...
Cause I dug my key into the side
of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats...
I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats...
ohh... before he cheats... ooooohhhhh....

Lately nothing I do ever
seems to please you
And maybe turning my back
would be that much easier
Cause hurtful words are
all that we exchange
But I can’t watch you walk away

Can I forget about the
way it feels to touch you?
And all about the good times
that we’ve been through
Could I wake up without you every day?
Would I let you walk away?

No, I can’t learn to live without
And I can’t give up on us now

Oh, I know I could say were through
And tell myself I’m over you
But even if I made a vow
I promise not to miss you now
And try to hide the truth inside
I fell cause I, I just can’t live a lie

Could I forget the look that
tells me that you want me?
And all the reasons that
make loving you so easy
The kiss that always
makes it hard to breathe
The way you know just what I mean

No, I can’t learn to live without
Ohh, so don’t you give up on us now

Ohh, I know I could say were through
And tell myself I’m over you
But even if I made a vow
I promise not to miss you now
And try to hide the truth inside
I fell cause I, I just can’t live a lie

Ohh, and I don’t wanna try

Ohhhh, I know I could say were through
And tell myself I’m over you
But even if I made a vow
I promise not to miss you now
And try to hide the truth inside
I fell cause I, I just can’t live a lie

I just can’t live a lie

But even if I made a vow
I promise not to miss you now
And try to hide the truth inside
I fell cause I, I just can’t live a lie

Oh, I cant live a lie
Oh, I cant live a lie -

I was sitting on my doorstep,
I hung up the phone
and it fell out of my hand,
But I knew I had to do it,
And he wouldn't understand,
So hard to see myself without him,
I felt a piece of my heart break,
But when you're standing at a crossroad,
There's a choice you gotta make.

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it's gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It's sad, but sometimes moving on
with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye.

I know there's a blue horizon,
Somewhere up ahead, just waiting for me,
Getting there means leaving things behind,
Sometimes life's so bitter sweet.

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it's gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It's sad, but sometimes moving on
with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye.

Time, time heals,
The wounds that you feel,
Somehow, right now.

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it's gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It's sad, but sometimes moving on
with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
Starts with goodbye,
The only way you try to find,
Moving on with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye,
Na na na na na na na.

There's some things that I regret
Some words I wish had gone unsaid
Some starts
That had some bitter endings
Been some bad times I've been through
Damage I cannot undo
Some things
I wish I could do all all over again
But it don't really matter
Life gets that much harder
It makes you that much stronger
Oh, some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were
Lessons learned

<CHORUS
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes
Everyday I wondered
how I'd get through the night
Every change, life has thrown me
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart
I'm grateful, for every scar
Some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned

There's mistakes that I have made
Some chances I just threw away
Some roads
I never should've taken
Been some signs I didn't see
Hearts that I hurt needlessly
Some wounds
That I wish I could have
one more chance to mend
But it don't make no difference
The past can't be rewritten
You get the life you're given
Oh, some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were
Lessons learned

<CHORUS
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes
Everyday I wondered
how I'd get through the night
Every change, life has thrown me
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart
I'm grateful, for every scar
Some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned

And all the things that break you
Are all the things that make you strong
You can't change the past
Cause it's gone
And you just gotta move on
Because it's all
Lessons learned

<CHORUS
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes
Everyday I wondered
how I'd get through the night
Every change, life has thrown me
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart
I'm grateful, for every scar
Some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned
Oh, some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned
Lessons learned

Sitting up on the roof
Sneaking a smoke by the chimney
Checking out the moon
And the city lights
He takes off his flannel shirt
And he drapes it around her shoulders
Slides up behind her and holds on tight
And she says
"I don't want this night to end
Why does it have to end?"

[Chorus:]
Tomorrow she'll be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge, LSU
18 years in her rearview
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
It ain't much but its a job
They've been dreading this moment all summer long
The night before
Life goes on

Oooh
A tear falls off her cheek and
Right when it hits his arm he says
"Come on baby
Let's get outta here"
They take one last drive around town
And man it
Already looks different
He bangs the wheel and says
"Life ain't fair
And this growing up stuff man I don't know
I just don't wanna let you go"

[Chorus:]
Tomorrow shell be rolling down I
10 Baton Rouge
LSU
18 years in her rearview
Hes got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
It ain't much but its a job
They've been dreading this moment all summer long
The night before
Life goes on

Yeah that's what my momma told me
And just like those kids
I didn't wanna listen to no one
Yea theres nothing you can do
Theres nothing you can say
And I know how it feels when love goes away

[Chorus:]
Tomorrow shell be rolling down I
10 Baton Rouge
LSU
18 years in her rear-view
Hes got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddies shop
It ain't much but its a job
They've been dreading this moment all summer long
But here it is
They don't have long
The night before
Life goes on
Yeah e yeah e yeah e yeah e yeahhhh

She was driving last Friday
on her way to Cincinnati
On a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see
her Mama and her Daddy
with the baby in the backseat
Fifty miles to go
and she was running low on
faith and gasoline
It would been a long hard year
She had a lot on her mind
and she didn't pay attention
She was going way to fast
Before she knew
it she was spinning
on a thin black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives
flash before her eyes
She didn't even
have time to cry
She was sooo scared
She threw her hands up
in the air
Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do
this all on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from
this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

It was still getting colder
when she made
it to the shoulder
And the car came to a stop
She cried when
she saw that baby
in the backseat
sleeping like a rock
And for the first time
in a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life
I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight
Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do
this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from
this road I'm on
Oh Jesus take the wheel

Oh I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from
this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
Oh take it take it from me
Oh why oh

I've naver been the kind that you call lucky
Always stumbling around in circles
but I must've stumbled into something
Look at me, am I really alone woth you?

I wake up feeling like my life's worth living
Can't recall when I last felt that way
Guess it must be all this love you're giving
Never knew, never knew
it could be like this...
But I guess

Some hearts, they just get all they right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts, they just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Some hearts just get lucky, lucky sometimes...

Now who'd have thought
someone like you could love me?
You're the last thing my heat expected
Who'd have thought I'd ever find somebody
Someone who, someone who
makes me feel like this...
Well, I guess

Some hearts, they just get all they right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts, they just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Some hearts just get lucky, lucky sometimes...

Ooh...

Even hearts like mine
Get lucky, lucky sometimes!

Hearts like mine!

Ohhhhhh! Oh, oh!

Some hearts, they just get all they right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts, they just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Some hearts, they just get all they right breaks
Some hearts have the stars on their side
Some hearts, they just have it so easy
Some hearts just get lucky sometimes

Some hearts just get lucky sometimes -

18 years have come and gone
For momma they flew by
But for me they just drug on
We were loading up that Chevy
Both tryin' not to cry
Momma kept on talking
Putting off good-bye
Then she took my hand and said
Baby don't forget

Before you hit the highway
You better stop for gas
There's a 50 in ashtray
In case you run short on cash
Here's a map and here's a bible
If you ever loose your way

Just one more thing before you leave
Don't forget to remember me

This downtown apartment sure makes me miss home
and those bills there on the counter
Remind me I'm on my own
And just like every Sunday I called momma up last night
And even when it's not, I tell her everything's alright
Before we hung up I said
Hey momma, don't forget to tell my baby sister I'll see her in the fall



And tell me-maw that I miss her



Yeah, I should give her a call
And make sure you tell Daddy that I'm still his little girl
Yeah I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be
Don't forget to remember me

Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray
I haven't done this in a while
So I don't know what to say but
Lord I feel so small some times in this big ol' place
I know there are more important things, but
Don't forget to remember me
Don't forget to remember me

Standing at the back door
She tried to make it fast
One tear hit the hard wood
It felt like broken glass
She said
sometimes love slips away
And you
just can't get it back
Let's face it
For once this second
She almost turned around
But that would be
like pouring rain loves
Back into a cloud
So she took another step
said I see the way out
and I'm gonna take it
I don't wanna
spend my life jaded waiting
to wake up one day and find
That I've let all
these years go by
Wasted
Another glass of whisky
gone it still don't
kill the pain
So he stumbles to the sink
and pours it down the drain
He says
it's time to be a man
and stop
living for yesterday
Got a face it
Cause I don't wanna
spend my life jaded waiting
to wake up one day and find
That I've
let all these years go by
Wasted
Oh I don't wanna
keep on wishing missing
But still every morning
the color of the night
I ain't
spending no more time
Wasted

She kept drivin along
Till the moon and the sun
were floating side by side
He looked in the mirror
and his eyes were clear
For the first time
in a while
Hey yeah
Oh
I don't wanna
spend my life jaded waiting
to wake up one day and find
That I've
let all these years go by
Wasted
Oh I don't wanna
keep on a wishing missing
But still every morning
the color of the night
I ain't spending
no more time
Wasted
Oh
I don't wanna
spend my life jaded waiting
to wake up one day and find
That I've
let all these years go by
Wasted yeah yeah
Oh I don't wanna
keep on a wishing missing
But still every morning
the color of the night
I ain't spending
no more time
Wasted

I've been down
Now I'm blessed
I felt a revelation
coming around
I guess its right
it's so amazing
Everytime I see you
I'm alive
You're all I've got
You lift me up
The sun and the moonlight
All my dreams
are in your eyes
and I wanna be inside
your heaven
Take me to the
place you cry from
Where the storm
blows your way
I wanna be earth
that holds you
Every bit of air
you're breathin' in
A soothin' wind
I wanna be inside
your heaven
When we touch
when we love
The stars light up
The wrong becomes undone
Naturally
my soul surrenders
The sun and the moonlight
All my dreams
are in your eyes
And I wanna be inside
your heaven
Take me to the
place you cry from
Where the storm
blows your way
And I wanna be the
earth that holds you
Every bit of air
you're breathing in
A soothing wind
I wanna be inside
your heaven
When minutes turn to
days and years
When mountains fall
I'll still be here
Holdin you until
the day I die
I wanna be inside
your heaven
Take me to the
place you cry from
Where the storm
blows your way
wanna be inside
your heaven
Take me to the
place you cry from
Where the storm
blows your way
I wanna be inside
your heaven
Take me to the
place you cry from
Where the storm
blows your way
I wanna be earth
that holds you
Every bit of air
you're breathin' in
A soothin' wind
I wanna be inside
your heaven

Where 69 meets 40,
There's a single stop light town,
And back when I was really young,
A part of that burned down,
On any given Friday night,
We'd drive a hundred miles,
Between the Sonic and the Grocery Store,
Laughing all the while,
With as many friends as I could pack,
In my daddy's Ford,
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.

My hotel in Manhattan,
Holds more people than our town,
And what I just paid for dinner,
Would be a down payment on a house,
I'd rather be tipping cows in Tulsa,
Then hailing cabs here in New York,
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.

I'm in a world so wide,
It makes me feel small sometimes,
I miss the big blue skys,
The Oklahoma kind.

In a world of long red carpets,
The bright lights of Hollywood,
All the paparazzi flashing,
Could make a girl feel pretty good,
You can get anything you want here,
Except a Wal-Mart store,
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.

I'm in a world so wide,
It makes me feel small sometimes,
I miss the big blue sky,
The Oklahoma kind.

Where the Wildcats beat the Ironheads,
Old Settler's day and the Okra fest,
After prom, down at the bowling lanes,
Catching crappie fish in Eufaula Lake,
I ain't in Checotah anymore.

I'm in a world so wide,
It makes me feel small sometimes,
I miss the big blue sky,
The Oklahoma kind,
But I ain't in Checotah,
No I ain't in Checotah,
Oh, there's nothing like Oklahoma.

Where 69 meets 40,
There's a single stoplight town.

When you look back on times we had
I hope you smile
And know that through the good
and through the bad
I was on your side
when nobody could hold us down
We claimed the brightest star
And we, we came so far
And no they won't forget

Whenever you remember times gone by
Remember how we held our heads so high
When all this world was there for us
And we believe that we could touch the sky
Whenever you remember, I'll be there
Remember how we reached that dream together
Whenever you remember

When you think back on all we've done
I hope you're proud
When you look back and see how far we've come
It was our time to shine
And nobody could hold us down
They thought they'd see us fall
But we, we stood so tall
And no we won't forget

Whenever you remember times gone by
Remember how we held our heads so high
When all this world was there for us
And we believe that we could touch the sky
Whenever you remember, I'll be there
Remember how we reached that dream together
Whenever you remember

Yeahhh, Ooohh

We claimed the brightest star
And we, we came so far
And know that we showed them all
And no they won't forget

Yeahhh

Whenever you remember times gone by
Remember how we held our heads so high
When all this world was there for us
And we believe that we could touch the sky
Whenever you remember, I'll be there
Remember how we reached that dream together
Whenever you remember

Whenever you remember

Ooohh, whenever you remember

Yeah... yeah...

In the circles I've been running
I've covered many miles
And I could search forever
for what's right before my eyes

Just when I thought I'd found it
it was nothing like I'd planned
When I got my heart around it
it slipped right through my hands

Here with you I feel it
I close my eyes and see it

In a midnight talk
In a morning kiss
When I'm in your arms
That's where it is
When I'm tangled up
and I can't resist
When you feel that rush
That's where it is

That's where it is...

When I'm crashing through the madness
I'm not sure who I'm supposed to be
When I'm caught up in the darkness
it's your hand that's leading me

You bring me back to solid ground
You lift me up right here, right now

In a midnight talk
In a morning kiss
When I'm in your arms
That's where it is
When I'm tangled up
and I can't resist
When you feel that rush
That's where it is

It's a lifetime filled with
Tiny graces
The biggest things
in the smallest places

In a midnight talk
In a morning kiss
When I'm in your arms
That's where it is
When I'm tangled up
and I can't resist
When you feel that rush
That's where it is

In the sweetest smile
on a night like this
In a tender touch
That's where it is
When I'm tangled up
and can't resist
When you feel that rush
That's where it is

That's where it is...
