(Track 2 - Time 3:51)

Where did you learn how to talk to a woman
Look what you're doing to me
Why in the world are you so good lookin'

Whatever it is I can't live without it

I wanna tell the world, I wanna scream and shout it
You came and set me free
I can't believe I finally found what's missing
You're the only one that can help this condition

I reckon I will, yeah
Let you be my everything
I reckon I will, yeah
Let you fall in love with me, oh yeah

Kiss Me Now
(Mark Spiro/Gary Burr)
(Track 3 - Time 4:02)

You picked me up at seven
I could see it in your eyes
And halfway through the movie
It was still on both our minds
So why put it off one minute more
Let's do what we wanted to
When I first opened the door

Kiss me now...'cause you know you will
Kiss me now...why wait until
The end of the night when it's awkward and shy
And there's so much at stake that we're too scared to try
Kiss me now...why go on like this
Kiss me now...get it over with
I'll make it easy on you
I want you to
Kiss me now

The way we're both distracted
It makes it hard to talk
This ice is easily broken
If we trust in what we got

Kiss me now...'cause you know you will
Kiss me now...why wait until
The end of the night when it's awkward and shy
And there's so much at stake that we're too scared to try
Kiss me now...why go on like this
Kiss me now...get it over with
I'll make it easy on you
I want you to
Kiss me now

You don't have to ask...you know what I'll say
And who knows what will happen next
If we get it out of the way

Kiss me now...why go on like this
Kiss me now...get it over with
I'll make it easy on you
I want you to
Kiss me now

I Will Be
(Tanya Leah/Bob Farrell)
(Track 4 - Time 4:00)

Caught in the downpour of a rain of stones
Felt like an exile in the world I had known
So I sought the shelter of my own soul and stayed inside
Words that were sharper than the winter wind
No longer had the power to pierce my skin
And they may not stop but I won't take them in

And I won't hide I will be here
I will be strong
I'll face my fears
When the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave
I will be bold
Follow my faith
To a higher road
And I'm not there yet
But I will be

I could choose to keep my feet upon the narrow path
Never cross the open field for that one snake in the grass
But I'd rather risk my heart than never get the chance
To find my way

I will be here
I will be strongv I'll face my fears
When the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave
I will be bold
Follow my faith
To a higher road
And I'm not there yet
But I will be

I will be here
I will be strong
I'll face my fears
When the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave
I will be bold
Follow my faith
To a higher road
And I'm not there yet
But I will be, yeah
I will be, oh yeah
I will be here
I will be strong
I'll face my fears
When the night is long
And still go on

Go Girl
(Mark Spiro/Don Schlitz)
(Track 5 - Time 4:18)

You say it's been comin' on
That he's been out runnin' 'round
You say that when he does come home
He only puts you down
Well you ask me my opinion
Of what I think you should do
As far as I can see there's just one road left for you
Oh don't give up 'cause it's hard to hear
You'll never know your strength until you face your fear

You go girl, 'cause you know girl
Where he is ain't where you belong
If you stay girl, you will pay girl
He's only gonna do wrong
You can try girl, but you'll cry girl
'Cause he ain't worth the holdin' on
So you go girl, 'cause you're already gone

You tell me that you're so afraid
To be out there on your own
To throw away the life you've made
And face the world all alone
I've been in your shoes and I've cried those tears
The best that you can do is walk away from here

So you go girl, 'cause you know girl
Where he is ain't where you belong
If you stay girl, you will pay girl
He's only gonna do wrong
You can try girl, but you'll cry girl
'Cause he ain't worth the holding on
So you go girl, 'cause you're already gone

But if he only makes you cry
What kind of life is that
If he don't know the meaning of
To honor and respect

Oh you can try girl, but you'll cry girl
'Cause he ain't worth the holdin' on
So you go girl, 'cause you're already gone
If you stay you will pay girl
Oh yes you will, yes you will
Yeah, back where you belong
You just go girl, yeah

Rhymes With
(Mary Danna/Carolyn Dawn Johnson)
(Track 6 - Time 2:51)

I must admit I've been holding back
And I got somethin' to say
Now I won't let the words get in my way
I guess I'm feeling my confidence
'Cause the time has come
Time to make the cat let go of my tongue
But...

I don't know how to say it
Maybe we could play this little game
I hope you catch my drift when I say
It rhymes with...
Dove

Have you gotten the picture yet
Or should I say it twice
Maybe the first time around I didn't get it quite right
I wanna make myself perfectly clear
So there's no doubt in your mind
I wanna let you know how I'm feeling inside
But...

I don't know how to say it
Maybe we could play this little game
I hope you catch my drift when I say
It rhymes with...
Glove

Oh what I'm thinkin' of sounds like
Rough, tough, and all that stuff
One word, one syllable
It feels so unbelievable
But...

I don't know how to say it
Maybe we could play this little game
I hope you catch my drift when I say
It rhymes with...

Oh I don't know how to say it
Maybe we could play this little game
I hope you catch my drift when I say
It rhymes with...
Dove
You know like, shove
Or glove

You're Gone
(Bryan White/Steve Wariner)
(Track 7 - Time 3:58)

Tell me one sweet lie
Tell me our love's just fine
And everything will be all right
Say you're not gonna leave
That you still love me
And we'll start all over tonight
That look is in your eyes
And all I can hear is the sound of good-bye

You're gone
No two ways about it
Though you stand in front of me
It's real easy to see
That you're gone
And it's time to face the truth
That my world just fell apart
And I don't know what to do
You're gone

I could turn my head
Forget what we said
And all the words that cut like a knife
Whether you go or stay
You're gone either way
And I'll love you the rest of my life
I can tell your mind is set
The words you didn't say I will never forget

You're gone
No two ways about it
Though you stand in front of me
It's real easy to see
That you're gone
And it's time to face the truth
That my world just fell apart
And I don't know what to do
You're gone

I'll never give up believin'
I know one day I'll win you back
And you'll love me just like I love you
But right now it's a matter of fact

You're gone
No two ways about it
Though you stand in front of me
It's real easy to see
That you're gone
And it's time to face the truth
That my world just fell apart
And I don't know what to do
You're gone

Crush
(Cathy Majeski/Stephony Smith/Sunny Russ)
(Track 8 - Time 3:20)

You, you might be the one
So let's not rush it, let's not jump the gun
Sometimes love is an illusion
Let's make it clear
Just so there's no confusion

It's just a crush I'm feelin'
Walkin' on the ceilin'
My whole world's upside down
It's just a crush I know it
Don't know where we're goin'
But I like it where we are right now
It's too soon to be too much
I'm not ready to call it love
It's just a crush
A crush

You, I like you a lot
But I'm not sure if it's meant to be or not
Yeah you could say
Say we're together
But no one's said a word
About the word forever

It's just a crush I'm feelin'
Walkin' on the ceilin'
My whole world's upside down
It's just a crush I know it
Don't know where we're goin'
But I like it where we are right now
It's too soon to be too much
I'm not ready to call it love
It's just a crush
A crush

You, you might be the one
So let's not rush it, let's not jump the gun

It's just a crush I'm feelin'
Walkin' on the ceilin'
My whole world's upside down
It's just a crush I know it
Don't know where we're goin'
But I like it where we are right now
It's too soon to be too much
I'm not ready to call it love
It's just a crush
A crush

Something In The Air
(Michael Dulaney)
(Track 9 - Time 4:14)

Out on that river road
In a pontiac lit up by the dashboard glow
They hold each other close
Under a harvest moon
Love is about to bloom

There's something in the air tonight
Something electric the point where love ignites
The center of the heart
You never see it comin' no
There isn't a warning, no reason not a sign
But you can feel it everywhere
There's something in the air

Every tender touch is fire
Every single sound is the sound of desire
Like an angel's choir
Blinded by the sudden flash
Together they'll strike the perfect match

There's something in the air tonight
Something electric the point where love ignites
The center of the heart
You never see it comin' no
There isn't a warning, no reason not a sign
But you can feel it everywhere
There's something in the air

A little luck
An act of fate
Brought them here
Now love can't wait

There's something in the air tonight
Something electric the point where love ignites
There's something in the air tonight
Something electric (the point where love ignites)
There's something in the air, oh
(There's something in the air tonight), oh
(There's something in the air tonight)
You can feel it everywhere
There's something in the air
(There's something in the air tonight), oh yeah
(There's something in the air tonight)

Hit By Love
(Trey Bruce/Rebecca L. Howard)
(Track 10 - Time 3:58)

We didn't know what hit us
We had to stop and catch a breath
Like a brick wall in a train tunnel
Scared us half to death
You'd have thought we could've seen it comin'
The way the two of us were runnin'
But I guess that's the way it is
If you've never been

Hit by love, struck by lightning
Bound forever, there's no denying that
All we want is everything that makes love like this come true
Oh, emotionally on our knees, it took a moment to believe
But there we were, the two of us, hit by love

Looking back is easy
If you've got memories like ours
We crashed like two headlights
And we're still seeing stars
And I don't have to stop and wonder
Where we'll find that rollin' thunder
'Cause my heart knows you and me
Are always gonna be

Hit by love, struck by lightning
Bound forever, there's no denying that
All we want is everything that makes love like this come true
Oh, emotionally on our knees, it took a moment to believe
But there we were, the two of us, hit by love

Hit by love, struck by lightning
Bound forever, there's no denying that
All we want is everything that makes love like this come true
Oh, emotionally on our knees, it took a moment to believe
But there we were, the two of us, hit by love
There we were, the two of us, hit by love
Hit by love

Can You Hear Me
(Lila McCann/Mark Spiro)
(Track 11 - Time 4:04)

Sittin' in my room starin' at the ceilin'
Nothing I do can't shake this feelin'
What have you done to me
I never thought I would be
Sittin' in my room starin' at the ceilin'
I wish I could say that I'm doin' fine
But I can't seem to get you off my mind

Can you hear me thinking 'bout you
With all of my heart I've been trying to
Send you my love just in case it's true
You feel the same way that I do
Can you hear me thinking 'bout you

I close my eyes praying for the power
Then my heart starts beating
A million miles an hour
Until the message is loud and clear
Well baby I'll be right here
Closing my eyes praying for the power
I only hope I can get it right
And find my way into your dreams tonight

Can you hear me thinking 'bout you
With all of my heart I've been trying to
Send you my love just in case it's true
You feel the same way that I do

Can you hear me wishin' I was
All you've ever been dreamin' of
I know that I will
And I'm willing because
This feeling I feel must be true
Can you hear me thinking 'bout you

I toss and turn
I breathe and burn
For one kiss
I'll go on
Right or wrong
'Cause I belong
Wherever he is

Can you hear me thinking 'bout you
With all of my heart I've been trying to
Send you my love just in case it's true
You feel the same way that I do
Can you hear me thinking 'bout you
Oh yeah
Can you hear me thinking 'bout you
Can you hear me thinking 'bout you

When You Walked Into My Life
(Ty Lacy/Arnie Roman)
(Track 12 - Time 3:41)

I've waited all this time
Counting minutes as they pass
Searching for a sign
Wishing for the best
And just when my hopes were wearing thin
You turned my heart to love again

Like a miracle out of the blue
You rescued me like the angels do
You shook the heavens and cracked the sky
When you walked
When you walked into my life

When you appeared like sight to the blind
Like music to my ears
Like a reason to a rhyme
And just when I thought my chance was gone
Love came to me with open arms

Like a miracle out of the blue
You rescued me like the angels do
You shook the heavens and cracked the sky
When you walked
When you walked into my life

You spoke my name and the world began again
You touched my heart and it opened

Like a miracle out of the blue
You rescued me like the angels do
You shook the heavens and cracked the sky
When you walked
When you walked into my life

Like a miracle out of the blue
You rescued me like the angels do
You shook the heavens and cracked the sky
When you walked
When you walked into my life
