1. 1. Can't Go on This WayListen

2. 2. ReunionListen

   I came to the party a little late, I'd been drinkin' and I didn't have a date
   Walked inside, everybody's there, smilin' faces everywhere.
   
   It's great to hear what you've done with your lives--everybody's children, everybody's wives.
   We all danced we were singin' to the beat, but when the music stopped they all took a seat.
   
   When a handsome man came over to me, said he's so proud I'm livin' my dream,
   said "What's it like, the travelin' life? I don't believe you've met my wife...."
   
   And they said, "We're so proud, we're so pleased, we're so glad that you're livin' your dream, livin' your dream"
   
   Harvey Wade and a woman in pearls passed around pictures of their pretty little girls.
   "Didn't you hear, didn't you know? The music stopped a long time ago."
   
   Everybody sat down, they all took a seat, now the only one standin' was me.
   The music stopped for you, I see, but that song still plays for me.
   
   My first boyfried and his beautiful wife, I'm playin' their town next Saturday night.
   Did I wait too long, travelin' along? Did the music stop? I still hear the song. I still hear the song.
   
   And they said, "We're so proud, we're so pleased, we're so glad that you're livin your dream, livin' your dream."
   
    

3. 3. If You Leave MeListen

   If you leave me, you'll have to take me with you, I won't let you leave without a fight.
   Listen to me while I shed some light on why you need me.
   
   We're such a perfect combination, you without me would be wrong.
   So I'll only let you go if you let me come along.
   
   You make me crazy about you, don't make me doubt you
   Cause without you, I can't go on.
   
   Believe me, we belong together, you and me forever and a day.
   If you leave me, you have to take me with you, 'cause that's where I want to stay.
   
   If you leave me, you'll have to take me with you, you're not getting out of here alone.
   Darling in your heart you've always known how much you need me.
   
   We're such a perfect combination, me without you makes me blue.
   So I'll only let you leave if you let me go with you.
   
   Don't think you're so clever, you made vows and that's forever.
   I belong to you and you to me.
   
   Believe me, we belong together, you and me forever and a day.
   If you leave me, you'll have to take me with you, 'cause that's where I want to stay.
   

4. 4. CabiriaListen

   You live the life in black and white.
   Streets so dark, you're shinin' bright.
   But you're alone again tonight, Cabiria.
   
   Your movie stars and painted lips,
   shiny cars and mambo hips,
   don't listen to he hypnotist, Cabiria.
   
   Climb from the shadows, run through the trees.
   Set down your sorrows, come find me.
   
   You asked the yes men they all said no--
   Caibiria, I saw the show.
   Don't you know I believe in you, Cabiria?
   
   Peep through the keyhole, alone at last,
   a lobster and your champagne glass.
   Don't you know the scene so well, Cabiria?
   
   Don't ask if I believe in you.
   Do you believe in me?
   Come through the twilight, back to my light, Cabiria
   
   Climb from the shadows, run through the trees.
   Set down your sorrows--give them to me.
   
   Pack up all your worldly treasures,
   your dreams of always and forevers.
   Let them go, and then you'll know, Cabiria.

6. 6. GeorgiaListen

7. 7. What You Meant To MeListen

   Saw you on the back porch, laughin, drinkin' wine
   Still lookin so handsome, baby, like you did when you were mine.
   Well it looks like you found a new girl, I guess she's more your style
   It's good to see you've moved on, baby, but it hurts to see you smile.
   
   But words you said ring in my head, they're never far from me.
   Of how time changes, rearranges--nothing's meant to be.
   
   But I guess you did it baby, you finally found a way
   To get what you'd been needin', and that's why you couldn't stay.
   
   Yeah I'm tryin not to read it, but you're written in my heart.
   And though I tried to play it, you know I didn't get the part.
   
   I don't ask the questions, I don't want to know.
   But time's passin' quickly now, and sorrow moves so slow.
   But I'm wishin' you the best babe, I hope she makes you feel
   All the things I couldn't and that this time it's for real.
   
   But words you said ring in my head, they're never far from me.
   Of how time changes, rearranges--nothing's meant to be.
   
   And though I do believe you, it's still so hard to see
   how time's gonna change or rearrange what you meant to me.
   How's time gonna change or rearrange what you meant to me?
   
    

8. 8. Carry Me CloseListen

   When I was just a lad, could do no good or bad. I always dreamed in color, life rolled off of me.
   
   And with the firm belief, they armed me to the teeth. And now I live to show you how much you meant to me.
   
   I am with you now, and love will heal all wounds. Sing to me, and the devils lose.
   Carry me close, carry m close to you.
   
   We used to have a laugh, we both would share a splash. I never thought I'd lose you, we were thick as thieves.
   
   The years were not so kind, couldn't tell you where I was when they kicked your door down to save you from yourself.
   
   I am with you now, and love will heal all wounds. Think of me, and the devils lose.
   Carry me close, carry me close to you.
   
   In a land of no, we were all your hopes. And you would stop a train with your head, just for me.
   
   How come I couldn't stay when you were so afraid, just left you there with strangers, I'd do anything to change.
   
   I am with you now, and love will heal all wounds. Think of me and the devils lose.
   All that I ask is carry me back, carry me close to you.

11. 11. (Intro) One Step CloserListen

12. 12. One Step CloserListen

    See you at a midnight dance.
    You give me every chance.
    I should quit, I'm only foolin.'
    You will be my precious ruin if I take
    one step closer.
    
    It's forbidden, I can see.
    So why were you made for me?
    In dreams I'd trade it all,
    just to wake, afraid to fall
    one step closer.
    
    You know me better than I know myself.
    Still, you keep me on the shelf.
    Watch you sleeping, watch you wake.
    Don't know how I can take
    one step closer.
