My heart has a history ------------------------------------ My heart has a history Of hurtin' those who mean the most to me Before you get too close to me I think you oughta know While other hearts are holdin' on While other loves are growin' strong My heart has a history of lettin' go The first time I looked into your eyes I knew this moment would arrive I got a feelin' you're the one But my heart keeps tryin' to turn and run The problem is this happens every time My heart has a history Of hurtin' those who mean the most to me Before you get too close to me I think you oughta know While other hearts are holdin' on While other loves are growin' strong My heart has a history of lettin' go If we can take this one kiss at a time Maybe we can tame this heart of mine I'm telling you the cold, hard truth I ain't ever been loved by the likes of you And I ain't ever had this much on the line, but My heart has a history Of hurtin' those who mean the most to me Before you get too close to me I think you oughta know While other hearts are holdin' on While other loves are growin' strong My heart has a history of lettin' go Yeah, my heart has a history of lettin' go.

--------------------------- A rose in a box, wrapped up in dreams A card that explains how much your love means A table for two with soft candlelight The words "I love you," somewhere in the night I meant to do that Does that mean a thing If you wanted songs Then I meant to sing I'd give you the world If you'd give mine back What I didn't do I meant to do that Late in the night, nothing to say Maybe a call to talk anyway A letter or two with some words that rhyme To promise you love, for now and all time I meant to do that Does that mean a thing If you wanted songs Then I meant to sing I'd give you the world If you'd give mine back What I didn't do I meant to do that Hold onto the love you gave until the end of time And love you more every day, until you know that I meant to do that Does that mean a thing If you wanted songs Then I meant to sing I'd give you the world If you'd give mine back What I didn't do I meant to do that One and only one -------------------------- I thought love at first sight was a fate for someone else And you'd never catch me fallin' that fast myself But I didn't even need two seconds alone with you All it took was one and only one Now, I see me bein' faithful, me bein' true Holdin' on and never lettin' go of you Girl, look what you've done The only thing I want is you lovin' me And from now on the only thing I want to be Is your one and only one, one and only one You've got a heaven sent heart and an angel's touch Not to mention your kiss that I can't get enough of And when I see your smile this feelin' deep, down inside Tells me you're my one and only one Now, I see me bein' faithful, me bein' true Holdin' on and never lettin' go of you Girl, look what you've done The only thing I want is you lovin' me And from now on the only thing I want to be Is your one and only one, one and only one I didn't even need two seconds alone with you All it took was one and only one Now, I see me bein' faithful, me bein' true Holdin' on and never lettin' go of you Girl, look what you've done The only thing I want is you lovin' me And from now on the only thing I want to be Is your one and only one, one and only one All over me -------------------- I can tell by the way that she's all over him She must be all over me And the tales I've been told I am finally believing I can't deny what I see This old barroom is full of suspected surprises Just like they said it would be And I can tell by the way that she's all over him She must be all over me I guess I should have known by the way she's been acting This is just how it would be All I ever wanted was her love everlasting Looks like she wants to be free And I can tell by the way that she's all over him She must be all over me I'm standing here and my heart goes to pieces Along with all of my dreams She's on the dance floor with her arms tied around him I wish they were wrapped around me I guess I should have known by the way she's been acting This is just how it would be All I ever wanted was her love everlasting Looks like she wants to be free And I can tell by the way that she's all over him She must be all over me She must be all over, it must be all over She must be all over me Calm Before The Storm ------------------------------------ Your blue eyes looked so peaceful While the storm raged on in me The tears filled up my eyes and now I finally see I've been livin' high and mighty But now I'm at an all-time low Now I'm reaching out to hold you As you turn around to go I should've been more careful I should've seen the signs While all was calm, I guess I should've read between the lines So, now I'm standin' in the cold, hard rain Instead of with you safe and warm A fool who took your love for granted In the calm before the storm So, I'm standin' here alone I've never felt like this before Can't believe my heart's been broken Just like waves against the shore I could always love and leave them I was the first one out the door I can't get used to the idea Not being with you anymore I should've been more careful I should've seen the signs While all was calm, I guess I should've read between the lines So, now I'm standin' in the cold, hard rain Instead of with you safe and warm A fool who took your love for granted In the calm before the storm A fool who took your love for granted In the calm before the storm On the inside --------------------- I was watchin' the crowd as you walked through the door How easy you captured their eyes And it wasn't your dress and it wasn't my drink You lit up the room with your smile When you sat down beside me I felt like a king Completely taken by you And I was sorry for every man in this world Who doesn't know you like I do Oh, I love how you move and the way your hair flows But there's so much more I want you to know I love how it feels when I look in your eyes 'Cause you're even more beautiful on the inside You've stayed by my side through some very hard times And you've always been faithful and true You're a picture of grace under pressure Honey, nobody cares like you do Oh, I love how you move and the way your hair flows But there's so much more I want you to know I love how it feels when I look in your eyes 'Cause you're even more beautiful on the inside Pass me by(if you're only passing through) --------------------------------------------------------- Well, look at what walked down the street today She wanted me to be one more mistake to make Just a bridge to cross to get to someone new Hey, pass me by if you're only passing through No, I don't want to be no stepping stone Among the other hearts that you've walked on And I don't know what you think you've run into Hey, pass me by if you're only passing through Well, you sure look like the traveling kind to me Don't stop if this ain't where you want to be Lord, help me if I fall in love with you Hey, pass me by if you're only passing through
