Water And Bridges

Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

(Tim Nichols/Craig Wiseman)

I was young and so was she
Love didn’t stay a mystery for very long
We could do no wrong
Then she called to say
She was late
So we took a little drive upstate
And took care of that
Yeah, we just took care of that

Now I’m looking back on
Some of my decisions
Now that...

April Fool

Monday, November 8th, 2010

I’m just a fool for April
There’s nothing more to say
Long as I can remember
She’s led my heart astray
When I was green as willow
She had me ditchin’ school
And even then she tricked me
I’m just an April fool

She tangles dogwood blossoms
Into her yellow hair
She uses the same perfume

The First Noel

The First Noel

Collin Raye

The first Noel the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepards in fields as they lay:
In fields where they lay a-keeping their sheep
On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.

Then they looked up and saw a star,
Shining in the east,...

Landing In Love

Saturday, September 11th, 2010

(Chuck Cannon/Chuck Jones)

Can you feel that rush
Makes the whole world hush
Makes your flesh go flush
You break a sweat
Is your soul on fire
With your hearts desire
Out there on the wire
Without a net

Does it take your breath
Are you scared to death
With one kiss
We’ll be risking it all
If...

The Dream Song

Friday, August 20th, 2010

(Jason Blume/Karen Taylor-Good)

Lay your head on your pillow now
Close your eyes
I’ll tuck you in and I’ll kiss you goodnight
While you and your teddy bear are countin’ sheep
Next thing you know, you’ll be fast asleep
Sleep now my angle your long day is done
The very best part of the night has begun

It Could’ve Been So Good

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

Chris Walters/Lonnie Wilson

When I think about you leaving and being here alone
It’s not the love we knew that hurts me
But the love we could have known
I’m not sorry that I held you
I just wish that I still could
Oh it’s not that it was so bad
It just could’ve been so good

I don’t regret...

What If Jesus Comes Back Like That?- Collin Raye

Friday, July 30th, 2010

Came to town on an old frieght train
He jumped off in the pouring rain
Everybody said he’s insane
Just a low down no account hobo

What if Jesus comes back like that?
On an old freight train in a hobo hat?
Will we let him in or turn our back?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
Hey? What if Jesus comes back like that?

Born...

When You Wish Upon a Star

Sunday, July 18th, 2010

(Ned Washington/L. Harline)

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind
She brings to those to love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their...

Open Arms

Monday, June 7th, 2010

(Jonathan Cain/Steve Perry)

Lying beside you here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat with mine
Softly you whisper you’re so sincere
How could our love be so blind
We sailed on together and drifted apart
And here you are by my side

So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here...
