Lyrics:
Ohh darlin'
My darlin' you're so fine
Ohhhh-hhh-hhh
Don't know if words can say
But darlin' i'll find a way
To let you know what you meant to me
Guess it was meant to be
I hold you in my heart
As life's most precious part
Oh darlin'
I dream about you often my pretty darlin'
(darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way you soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh oh
I was living like half a man
Then i couldn't love but now i can
You pick me up when i'm feeling sad
More soul than i ever had
Gonna love you every single night
'Cause i think you're too outta sight
Oh darlin'
I dream you often my pretty darlin'
(darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh huh
Woah oh oh oh
Every night darlin'
Gonna love you every single night, yes i will
'Cause i think you're too doggone outta sight
Oh darlin'

(darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh huh
Oh

Don't know if words can say
But darlin' i'll find a way
To let you know what you meant to me

As life's most precious part
Oh darlin'

(darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh huh
Oh
A short time I have to be with you my love
But a short time is better than no time you see
So I bring to you all my possessions
And would that you'd share them with me
I bring you one springtime of robins
One springtime of robins to sing
And I bring you one summer of roses
One summer of roses I bring
I bring you one autumn of dry leaves
Dry leaves will be helpful you know
To soften the fall of your snowflakes
When I bring you, your winter of snow
I wish I could back up and start all over
'Cause now I'd know better the best way to love her
The words I would tell her the time I would give her
I wish I could back up and start all over
[Chorus]
Time takes you places you never knew you'd be goin'
It softens the edges of memories you're towin'
It changes the reasons
You wanted to hold her
I wish I could back up and start all over
I wish I could back up and start all over
I'd make the first time feel like forever
Not to be younger maybe just to be smarter
I wish I could back up and start all over
[Chorus]
I wish I could back up and start all over
Days I would take back nights I'd wanna make longer
Moments I'd never just throw over my shoulder
I wish I could back up and start all over
But it's never too late to wanna do better
Love's never easy, changes just like the weather
Some days it's raining some are sunny and blue
There's never perfect but there's faithful and true
Time takes you places you never knew you'd be goin'
It softens the edges of memories you're towin'
It changes the reasons you wanted to hold her
I wish I could back up and start all over
I wish I could back up and start all over.
Fungal city, subterranean
Carve the forest floor
We walk on this sunken mystery
Trunks bursting through the moss from
Should I soften the blow of life on him?
Cottonwool cocoon him?
His capacity for love is enormous
His vibrant optimism happens to be my faith too
His body calligraphs the space above my bed
Horizontal signature on my skin
I'm in rapture, ooh (I'm in rapture, I'm in rapture, I'm in rapture)
Perfumed velvet darkness
Should I soften the blow of life on him?
I Never Felt This Way Before I met you
You stole my heart and what is more
I let you
I fell in love too often I won't deny
But my heart didn't soften till you came by
When I discovered you between romances
I looked at you and read between your glances
This is one romance I can't ignore
I Never Felt This Way Before.
When a maiden is wooed by a man
His advances she frequently spurns
In her anger one day
She may send him away
Then she's anxious until he returns
Until he returns
She provokes him as much as she can
But she likes him to still persevere
Oh, it's very remiss
And the danger is this
She may do it too often, I fear
She may do it too often, I fear
Once too often
Time after time
Doubtless his heart will soften
But the day may arrive
When she finds out, alack
That her lover will leave her
And never come back
She's refused him just once too often
Then that maiden will sit there and sigh
For the lesson is bitter indeed
Now she's quite wide awake
She can see her mistake
And for pardon she's longing to plead
She's longing to plead
She has let all her chances pass by
And the moral may clearly be seen
For whoever you are
It is better by far
If you always will say what you mean
If you always will say what you mean
Once too often
Time after time
Doubtless his heart will soften
But the day may arrive
When she finds out, alack
That her lover will leave her
And never come back
She's refused him just once too often
Once too often
Sometimes I feel like
I'm drownin' in teardrops
My eyes are so tired of
The trouble I've seen
Then you fell from the heavens
Right into this sad place
Remembering God for awhile in your dreams
And you look to me now
So I greet the new day
With the eyes of a child
And the wonder you bring
So goodnight old world
We'll see you tomorrow
We rise with the sun
And fall with the sparrow
But here is this child
To soften the sorrow
Goodnight old world
Old world goodnight
You fell from the heavens
Right into this sad place
Remembering God for a while in your dreams
And you look to me now
And I greet the new day
With the eyes of a child
At the wonder you bring
So goodnight old world
See you tomorrow
We rise with the sun
Fall with the sparrow
But here is this child
To soften the sorrow
Goodnight old world
Old world goodnight
Goodnight old world
Old world goodnight
One good love
Erases all the bitter tears on an empty dance hall
All those lonely nights when she never called
It just don't seem so tragic after all
With one good love
One good love
And daddy's hands were strong and fair
And momma understands because she's been there
And all mistakes were just because they cared so much
With one good love
One good love
You bless all my memories
You soften the fall of my tears
And in my arms you're more than enough
You're one good love
Hey, you're one good love
Yeah, you're one good love
One good love
You bless all my memories
You soften the fall of my tears
And in my arms you're more than enough
You're one good love
One good love
And born again means more than pass the plate and bow your head
Yes, you bury what needs burying, you raise it from the dead
The very best, you heal the brokenness, give grace to everyone
With one good love
Yeah, oh, one good love
Hey, hey, one good love
Yeah, I'll give you one good love
Oooo, oooo, oooo, ooooo, oooo, yeah
Lord, I feel born again, yeah
You got to give me one good love now
One good love
My height, just average
My weight, just average
And my I.Q. is like you'd estimate
Just average
But evidently
She does not agree
Consequently
If I seem at sea
It amazes me
It simply amazes me
What she sees in me
Dazzles me, dazes me
That I've learned to clip my wings
And soften my ways
These are ordinary things
Unworthy of praise
Yet she praises me
Just knowing I'd try for her
When so many would
If they could, die for her
I'm the one who's worldly wise
And nothing much fazes me
But to see me in her eyes
It just amazes me
I'm the one who's worldly wise
And nothing much fazes me
But to see me in her eyes
It just amazes me
My height, just average
My weight, just average
And my I.Q. is like you'd estimate
Just average
But evidently
She does not agree
Consequently
If I seem at sea
It amazes me
It simply amazes me
What she sees in me
Dazzles me, dazes me
That I've learned to clip my wings
And soften my ways
These are ordinary things
Unworthy of praise
Yet she praises me
Just knowing I'd try for her
When so many would
If they could, die for her
I'm the one who's worldly wise
And nothing much fazes me
But to see me in her eyes
It just amazes me
I'm the one who's worldly wise
And nothing much fazes me
But to see me in her eyes
It just amazes me
You're so happy now
Burning the candle at both ends
Your self-loving soothes
And softens the blows you've invented
Breathe in deep
And cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss
The crack's healing up
Future self, forgive this mess
You waste twenty years
And wind up alone, demented
Breathe in deep
And cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss
Breathe in deep
And cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss
One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone
A new day, a new way, and new eyes
To see the dawn
Go your way, I'll go mine and
Carry on
The sky is clearing and the night
Has cried enough
The sun, he come, the world
To soften up
Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but
To carry on
The fortunes of fables are able
To sing the song
Now witness (oh) the quickness with which
We get along
To sing the blues you've got to live the dues
And carry on
Carry on
Love is coming
Love is coming to us all
Where are you going now my love?
Laugh all you want to
But, I'm holding on to you
Right from here on in,
You want to bet
You'll sluff me off
And I'll beg 'till you soften,
And ten to one I'll win
You want to bet,
Taunt me,
Call me a pest,
But quite strangely,
You'll be impressed,
It's destiny.
With her killer graces and her secret places that no boy can fill
With her hands on her hips, oh, and that smile on her lips because she knows that it kills me
With her soft French cream, standing in that doorway like a dream, I wish she'd just leave me alone
Because French cream won't soften them boots and French kisses will not break that heart of stone
With her long hair falling and her eyes that shine like a midnight sun
Whoa-oh, she's the one
She's the one
That thunder in your heart at night when you're kneeling in the dark,
it say's you're never gonna leave her
But there's this angel in her eyes that tells such desperate lies
and all you want to do is believe her
And tonight you'll try just one more time to leave it all behind and to break on through
Oh, she can take you, but if she wants to break you,
she's gonna find out that ain't so easy to do
And no matter where you sleep tonight or how far you run
Whoa-oh, she's the one
She's the one
Oh oh, and just one kiss, she's fill them long summer nights with her tenderness
That secret pact you made, back when her love could save you from the bitterness
Oh, she's the one
Oh, she's the one
Oh, she's the one
Oh, she's the one
Oh, she's the one
Oh, she's the one
I need you to soften my heart
And break me apart
I need you to open my eyes
To see that You're shaping my life
All I am, I surrender
Give me faith to trust what you say
That you're good and your love is great
I'm broken inside, I give you my life
I need you to soften my heart
And break me apart
I need you to pierce through the dark
And cleanse every part of me
All I am, I surrender
Give me faith to trust what you say
That you're good and your love is great
I'm broken inside, I give you my life
'Cause I may be weak
But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will
I may be weak
But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will
Give me faith to trust what you say
That you're good and your love is great
I'm broken inside, I give you my life
Give me faith to trust what you say
That you're good and your love is great
I'm broken inside, I give you my life
'Cause I may be weak
But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will
I may be weak
But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will
With her killer graces and her secret places that no boy can fill
With her hands on her hips, oh
And that smile on her lips because she knows that it kills me

Because French cream won't soften them boots
And French kisses will not break that heart of stone

Love is coming
Love is coming to us all
Where are you going now my love?
If I knew what the
Nightingale sings in her song
If I knew why the meadow
Is sweet all day long
If I knew how the
Mockingbird trills to his dove
His sad sweet secret of love
Then I'd know how the
Mountaintop reaches so high
Then I'd know how the
Moonlight softens a sigh
Then I'd know how the
Ramblers bloom as they do
And at last, I'd know
The secret of you
Then I'd know how the
Ramblers bloom as they do
And at last, I'd know
The secret of you
Gonna open my heart, out of the scars and listen up
Gonna do what I'm told, though I'm told and listen up
Take a shot in the rain, one for the pain and listen up
I traveled the way
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Gonna soften the blow, soften the blow and give it up
I saw the surprise, the look in your eyes, I gave it up
Gonna be who I am, be who I am, and give it up
I traveled the way
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Gonna open my heart, out of the scars and listen up
Gonna do what I'm told, though I'm told and listen up
Take a shot in the rain, one for the pain and listen up
I traveled the way
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Gonna soften the blow, soften the blow and give it up
I saw the surprise, the look in your eyes, I gave it up
Gonna be who I am, be who I am, and give it up
I traveled the way
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
I need you to soften my heart
And break me apart
I need you to open my eyes
To see that You're shaping my life
All I am, I surrender
Give me faith to trust what you say
That you're good and your love is great
I'm broken inside, I give you my life
I need you to soften my heart
And break me apart
I need you to pierce through the dark
And cleanse every part of me
All I am, I surrender
Give me faith to trust what you say

'Cause I may be weak
But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will

But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will
Give me faith to trust what you say

My flesh may fail
My God you never will

But Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will
I was walking down Broadway
New York, New York
Tony Llama boots and a Stetson hat
Proud to be a country boy
Just then a messenger called me
Rasta man on the road
He said "You gotta get the rhythm of the islands
Help me carry my load"
[Chorus]
You've got to get into reggae cowboy
Shuffle them boots on the street
Get into reggae cowboy
Feel that reggae beat
Hey hey hey hey
His message hit me like a brick man
First I laughed, then I cried
Somewhere between Jamaica and Nashville
I realized I'd live my life
These days I sit in my garden
Soften frames on a steel guitar
Beautiful rhythms on the tradewinds
Blowing in to a Florida farm
They tell me get into reggae cowboy
Shuffle them boots on the street
Get into reggae cowboy
Feel that reggae beat
Hey hey hey hey
You've got to get into reggae cowboy
Get into reggae cowboy,
Get into reggae cowboy,
Get into reggae cowboy
A short time I have to be with you my love
But a short time is better than no time you see
So I bring to you all my posessions and would that you share them with me
I bring one springtime of robins one springtime of robins to sing
I bring you one summer of roses one summer of roses I bring
I bring you the dry leaves of autumn dry leaves will be helpful you know
To soften the fall of your snowflakes when I bring you your winter of snow
This looks like a December day this looks like a time to remember day
And I remember a spring such a sweet tender thing
And love's summer college where the green leaves of knowledge
Were waiting to fall with the fall
And where September wine numbed a measure of time
Through the tears of October
Now November's over and this looks like a December day
This looks like a December day it's looks like we've come to the end of the way
And as my mem'ries race back to loves eager beginning
Reluctant to play with the thoughts of the ending the ending that won't go away
And as my mem'ries race back to loves eager beginning
Reluctant to play with the thoughts of the ending the ending that won't go away
And this looks like a December day
