Blue Clear Sky
-------------------------
You swear you've had enough
You're ready to give up
On that little lie they call love
Then out of the blue clear sky
Fallin' right into your hands
Like rain on the desert sand
It's the last thing you had planned
Then out of the blue clear sky
Here she comes a walkin' talkin' true love
Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love
Surprise your new love has arrived
Out of the blue clear sky
Ain't love a funny thing
One day you're givin' up the dream
And the next you're pickin' out a ring
Out of the blue clear sky
Here she comes a walkin' talkin' true love
Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love
Surprise your new love has arrived
Out of the blue clear sky
Here she comes walkin' talkin' true love
Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love
Surprise your new love has arrived
Out of the blue clear
Here she comes walkin' talkin' true love
Sayin' I've been lookin' for you love
Surprise your new love has arrived
Out of the blue clear sky
Out of the blue clear sky
Carried Away
-----------------------
I don't take my whiskey to extremes
I don't believe in chasin' crazy dreams
My feet are planted firmly on the ground
But darlin' when you come around
I get carried away by the look by the light in your eyes
Before I even realize the ride I'm on
Baby I'm long gone
I get carried away nothin' matters but bein' with you
Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day
I get carried away
It might seem like an ordinary night
Same ol' stars the same ol' moon up high
But when I see you standin' at your door
Nothin's ordinary anymore
I get carried away by the look by the light in your eyes
Before I even realize the ride I'm on
Baby I'm long gone
I get carried away nothin' matters but bein' with you
Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day
I get carried away
I get carried away by the look by the light in your eyes
Before I even realize the ride I'm on
Baby I'm long gone
I get carried away nothin' matters but bein' with you
Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day
I get carried away
Carried away
I Can Still Make Cheyenne
-----------------------------------------
Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
And she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind
He said, it's cold out here and I'm all alone
I didn't make the short go again and I'm coming home
I know I've been away too long
I never got a chance to write or call
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But I'll be home soon
And honey is there somethin' wrong
She said, don't bother comin' home
By time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man
He said, I'm sorry it's come down to this
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
He left that phone danglin' off the hook
Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look
Then he just walked away
He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line
With a little luck he could still get there in time
And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say
She said, don't bother comin' home
By time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man
He said, I'm sorry it's come down to this
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
And she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind
Round About Way
----------------------------
As far as all my friends can tell I took her leavin' well
That's kinda right
'Cause when I'm out with them
I don't let her memory
Rule the night
For the most part I'm okay
But I still miss her in a round about way
Around about the time that midnight rolls around
That's around about the time my tears start fallin' down
'Cause she's not around
I come unwound and my heart breaks
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way
I no longer sit alone for hours by the phone
Wishin' she would call
And just the other day I took her smilin' face
Down off my wall
I've come a long long way
But I still miss her in a round about way
Around about the time that midnight rolls around
That's around about the time my tears start fallin' down
'Cause she's not around
I come unwound and my heart breaks
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way
Carrying Your Love With Me
---------------------------------------------
Baby all I got is this beat up leather bag
And everything I own don't fill up half
But don't you worry 'bout the way I pack
All I care about is gettin' back, real soon
A goodbye kiss is all I need from you --'cause
I'm carrying your love with me
West Virginia down to Tennessee
I'll be movin' with the good Lord's speed
Carrying your love with me...It's my strength..for holdin' on
Every minute that I have to be gone
I'll have everything I'll ever need
I'm carrying your love with me
On a lonely highway stuck out in the rain
Darlin' all I have to do, is speak your name
The clouds roll back and the waters part
The sun starts shinin' in my heart for you
You're right there in everything I do...cause
I'm carrying your love with me
West Virginia down to Tennessee
I'll be movin' with the good Lord's speed
Carrying your love with me...It's my strength...for holdin' on
Every minute that I have to be gone
I'll have everything I'll ever need
I'm carrying your love with me
It's my strength for holding on
Every minute that I have to be gone
I'll have everything I'll ever need
I'm carrying your love with me
I'm carrying your love with me
I'm carrying your love with me
West Virginia down to Tennessee
I'll be movin' with the good Lord's speed
Carrying your love with me

Today My World Slipped Away
----------------------------------------------
We made it final today
I gave you all I had, you made your get away
All the love we once made
Turned to memories today
I left the courtroom and went straight to the church
I hit my knees and told God how much I hurt
There's nothin' left of my heart
It's going to be so hard to make a new start
'Cause today my world slipped away
We buried the plans that we made
And tonight I'm alone and afraid
'Cause today my world slipped away
All my friends say I'll make it alright
I'll recover and start a new life
But that'll be so hard to do
'Cause livin' ain't worth livin' without you
'Cause today my world slipped away
We buried the plans that we made
And tonight I'm alone and afraid
'Cause today my world slipped away
'Cause today my world slipped away
Meanwhile
--------------------
She sparkles, she dazzles
She lights up the room
We walk together to a table for two
Every man stares but her eyes are only for me
We take to the dance floor, she squeezes my hand
I can't believe just how lucky I am
Meanwhile
Back in the back of my memory
You're still dancing with me
And I'm holdin' you once again
Meanwhile
We move to the end of a beautiful night
Tender the kisses, soft candle light
She draws the curtains, slowly we climb up the stairs
And reach for each other, the passion begins
We fall together as lovers and then
Meanwhile
Back in the back of my memory
You're still lying with me
And I'm holdin' you once again
I try and I try, Lord knows I do
But each time my heart beats back to you
Meanwhile
I'll go on living my life now
I'll find the way somehow
Oh but meanwhile
Back in the back of my memory
You'll always be with me
But I'll never hold you again
Meanwhile
Write This Down
---------------------------
I never saw the end in sight
Fools are kind of blind
Thought everything was going alright
But I was runnin' out of time
'Cause you had one foot out the door
I swear I didn't see
But if you're really going away
Here's some final words from me
Baby write this down, take a little note
To remind you in case you didn't know
Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go
Write this down
Take my words and read 'em every day
Keep 'em close by, don't ya let 'em fade away
So you'll remember what I forgot to say
Write this down
I'll sign it at the bottom of the page
I'll swear under oath
'Cause every single word is true
And I think you need to know
So use it as a bookmark
Stick it on your 'fridgerator door
Hang it in a picture frame above the mantle
Where you'll see it for sure
Baby write this down, take a little note
To remind you in case you didn't know
Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go
Write this down
Take my words and read 'em every day
Keep 'em close by, don't ya let 'em fade away
So you'll remember what I forgot to say
Write this down
You can find a chisle, I can find a stone
Folks will be readin' these words, long after were gone
Baby write this down, take a little note
To remind you in case you didn't know
Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go
Write this down
Take my words and read 'em every day
Keep 'em close by, don't ya let 'em fade away
So you'll remember what I forgot to say
Write this down
Oh I love you and I don't want you to go
Baby write this down
