In the moment.....
Just got lost in the moment today
Just got lost along the way
That noose just seemed to tighten
And my senses were all heightened.
I wasn't trying to feed the flame
And I wasn't playing head games
You know its never gonna be right
And you said you wouldn't talk all night
Just got lost in the moment today
I just got lost along the way
The noose has finally untangled
And I'm feeling much less strangled
But it's not for you or me to say
What went right or went astray
I'm not right, you're not wrong
It just got bad and it's been too long
Just got lost in the feelings today
I just got lost along the way
The noose has finally loosened
My mind is clear, I'm not disillusioned
Its for the best and that's a fact
I'm finally feeling untrapped
There's nothing here it's all long gone
So say goodbye and just move on.

HEAVEN AND HELL
Both Heaven and hell begin in the mind
And although sometimes my thoughts are unkind,
Don’t’ put me in a box, don’t call me names,
My demons and my God sometimes feel the same.
But I've seen God walking down a dirt road,
and I've screamed at him in anger when my pain hit overload
So you go to church and sing from your book of hymns,
thump you bible and call me bad. I'll sit here by myself
under this tree, cause I know He still loves sinners like me.

One of these days it's going to come a night
I’ll close my eyes and wake and not
wonder what didn't go right.
But I’ll wake up and put the ragtop down
and take a ride in my jeep
Cause my smile you just can’t keep.
Can’t live in the past, gotta let go
Cause that was too many I'm sorrys ago.
Someday I’ll find someone who’ll ride shotgun
with me and we’ll just drive and park and talk
until the trust is back again.
And we’ll hold hands and walk a trail
that leads us to love or something like it
that’ll keep us warm and won’t fail
I’ll let go of the past and love will grow
Cause you were too many I'm sorrys ago.

You cry a few more tears
in a few more beers.
she spends a little more time
with a glass of wine.
They’re just living alone together
in a different forever.
It's so sad when people
in love can't find their way
they run they hide
they forget what to say.
They feel like breaking
when they could just simply bend.
But they just can’t walk away
Even though it's at the end.
But that's the sad, sad truth
about living alone together
in a different forever

Driving along no thoughts in my head.
Loving the wind and the watercolored sky overhead
Radio is playing I'm singing along
and then that's when it happens they play that one song
Dontcha just hate it when bad memories ruin good songs.
The words once meant something now they are all wrong.
I use to change the station refuse to let you in
but now I just sing along cause I'm finally free
You took so much from me - my heart, my hopes my dream.
I'll be damned if I'll let you take my favorite song from me
So now when I hear that song the one that brings you back
I sing as loud as I can cause you are the one who got off track
So la de da… la de di … la de do.. la de don’t
You can’t hurt me anymore, cause I’m in my happy zone!

That good ol' boy that ol Waylon sings about
can be a mean, mean drunk when he is out and about.
The things that he whispers when the lights are low,
aren't the same ones he mutters in the neon glow.
Gotta wonder what makes Mr. Hyde come out to play
and why Dr. Jekyl stays hidden away.
But this good hearted woman has had quite enough.
He has crossed the line again, now I'm calling his bluff.
He can sit at home and wonder just where I have gone,
while I step out and see what trouble I can come up on.
Might even let a stranger pull me out on the floor,
may even let him have a little bit more.
Pour me some tequila, I'm coming in hot.
Let's see if a stranger can remember what he’s obviously forgot.

You had my heart skipping like a stone thrown across a lake.
The ripple effect left me breathless and just a bit afraid .
But I don 't want the keys to your door
Because I don 't belong there anymore
You can't go back and right all the wrongs
and it's stupid for me to keep holding on.
You knew my soul was as open as the sky is blue
You also knew I'd let you go, cause your heart wasn't true
Through the strain and the pain, I thought we could stay friends.
Something bout a southern man , just makes you hate to see it end
But at the end of this hot and humid night
I'll be sleeping peacefully and you'll be out of sight
Yeah when that bayou sun comes up you'll be gone
but I'll be smiling even though you left me here alone
We were both just looking for love in the light of an old friend
We both knew it wouldn't last and we knew it had to end.
We didn't blink an eye when the sunrise called our names
Cause we already knew that things would never be the same
sometimes I stop and wonder how easily that ring slid off your finger
did you stop for a moment and let any of the memories linger ?
Yeah it caught me by surprise, no one said a word to me.
Guess they were all still worried about my threadbare sanity
But I'm past the point of crying for a love that's surely dyin
and the guilt I cannot feel cause none of this was real
Still when I remember your clear blue eyes I almost want to cry.
Yeah I almost want to cry, but life is too short to give in to all your lies.
So I'll let you walk away, even though it tears me up inside
Cause there's nothing left to do, but say our last goodbyes
Yeah we were both just looking for love in the light of an old friend
We both knew it wouldn't last and we knew it had to end.
Leavings not easy, and you silence is my foe
But, tonight I'll play my music and calmly let you go

She tossed and turned throughout the night
Her eyes stayed open til the morning light
The alarm goes off, her feet hit the floor
She shakes her head at the rusty hinges on her bedroom door
Puts on the coffee and waits for it to brew.
Pours one cup, when once it was two.
Sits down at the table and stares out into space
And wonders if she’ll ever be rescued from this sad and lonesome place
She curses as she struggles with the worn out leaky sink,
and some days she cries cause she just can’t help but think
How did she get here? Shouldn’t there be more?
Or should she just settle for the next man who walks through her door?
But she doesn’t want to settle for just being a friend,
But she’s not sure if she’s really able to give her love again.
It’s not that she really NEEDS someone to ease her pain and grief
Her kids have always been there, they’ve been her soul’s relief.
But she longs for strong hands secure around her waist
And lips that are willing to kiss her tears away;
To be left breathless and waiting as her heart beats faster
And hear those words, “it’s okay, darlin’ you’re just my beautiful disaster”.

These feelings have beaten me black and blue
Probably why I'm talking to a stranger like you.
Just trying to figure out how to break loose
and free myself from this self tied noose.
He was a special kind of mean spirited guy
He was a cheater, a liar and I never knew wy.
These feelings keep beating me black and blue
Probably why I'm kissing a stranger like you.
There's a special place in hell I pray
Hope it burns him and he's made to pay.
I gave him my love and for my trouble
he gave me half and charged me double.
These feelings keep beating me black and blue.
Probably why I'm sleeping with a stranger like you.

You don't believe in hope or maybe it's a shield.
Or maybe you're just waiting for your broken heart to heal.
You try to hide away, but you know she's in your head
and you try to deny it, but you know that love's not dead.
Cause you said I love you and you love me,
but we are both just living in a fantasy
It's never gonna work and you know it's not fair.
But there's nothing you can do
cause your heart's just not there.
You close your eyes and all you can feel
is the beat of her heart and her scent makes you reel.
You remember how she looked when she said I don't want your pity
and it's impossible to forget how she made strong look so pretty
Cause you said I love you and you love m
but we are both just living in a fantasy.
It's never gonna work and you know its not fair
but there's nothing you can do
cause her heart's just not there
So when life winds you up and the past drags you down
Sometimes you have to stop and just take a look around
and remember how it felt, when she lay next to you
and ask is it worth the effort to just play through.
