1. PUT YOU IN A SONG

Well here you come again and you're lookin' so fine
You don't notice me but it's alright
I'm just a guy who wishes that I could be your man someday
Yeah a picture paints a thousand words it's true
But it's still not enough for how I feel about you
I wanna put you in a melody, I gotta set you to a groove

I wanna put you in my car and drive
And turn you up loud, roll down all the windows and shout it out
I love this girl oh
If I could press play, repeat how happy I'd be
Wherever I'd go I'd have you there with me
You'd be right where you belong
I wanna put you in a song, oh oh oh
Well I'd sing about your smile and your pretty blue eyes
The way your hair shimmers in the sunlight
It'd be so easy I'd just write it from my heart
'Cause I gotta tell the world what you mean to me
Wrap you up in a melody so you'll be
Stuck in my head all day
'Cause you're already there anyway, yes you are

I wanna put you in my car and drive
And turn you up loud, roll down all the windows and shout it out
I love this girl
If I could press play, repeat how happy I'd be
Wherever I'd go I'd have you there with me
You'd be right where you belong
I wanna put you in a song
And if I get it right everybody will be singing along yeah
And when they see you on the street they'll say
Hey ain't you the girl in that song

I wanna put you in my car and drive
And turn you up loud, roll down all the windows and shout it out
I'm in love with this girl
Yeah if I could press play, rewind a couple million times
Imagine for a moment that you're all mine
Every night I'd drive you home
If I could put you in a
Let me put you in a song
Let me put you in a song
Oh a pretty little song about you baby


2. YOU GONNA FLY

One, two, three baby don't think twice
Just like that you got a brand new life
Hop in this truck and run through the red lights
Yeah where you wanna go baby name the town
We can go up north, we could head down south
Roll down the windows with the radio loud

C'mon turn it up, yeah
Start living your life
On the double leave your troubles behind
You and me, we're gonna be alright

You could be a blackbird
On the country street
Hiding from the world with a broken wing
But you better believe you're gonna fly with me
You could be a songbird from New Orleans
Scared of the rain just as scared to sing
But you better believe you're gonna fly with me

Well, here we are baby in the back of my bed
Suns going down skies turning red
Stars coming out
Baby look at you now
God knows how long but it's been a while
Since I heard you laugh and I seen that smile
Felt that kiss and I can get used to this
Baby I could get used to this

You could be a blackbird
On the country street
Hiding from the world with a broken wing
But you better believe you're gonna fly with me
You could be a songbird from New Orleans
Scared of the rain just as scared to sing
But you better believe you're gonna fly with me

You gonna fly [x2]


3. ALL FOR YOU

Last night I fell asleep, and I saw you dancing in my dreams,
Just like the way the Autumn leaves fall for you.
All for you.

You changed my life, you changed my ways.
I don't even recognize myself these days.
It must be a reflection of you.
Only you.

I can't remember feeling love like this in so long.
I can't imagine living life without you by my side.
Day after day you find a way to make this grown man cry.
It's so true, I'm all for you.

My arms could hold you tight, keep you warm in the coldest night.
My hand would pull your hair right back away from your eyes.
For you. Only you.
If I knew how to do it,
I'd paint the moon, the stars around you.
Paint the perfect sunset.
But I couldn't make it more beautiful than you.
Oh, nothing compares to you.
You know it's true.

I can't remember feeling love like this in so long.
I can't imagine living life without you by my side.
Day after day you find a way to make this grown man cry.
It's so true, I'm all for you.

I can't remember feeling love like this in so long.
I can't imagine living life without you by my side.
Day after day you find a way to make this grown man cry.

Some might call it insanity.
Without a doubt for the rest of my life,
I'm going to be crazy.
Baby, crazy for you.

All for you.
I'm all for you.


4. LONG HOT SUMMER

I can’t sleep
Ain’t no sleep a’coming
I’m just lying here thinking ‘bout you
I’m in deep
Falling deep into the picture in my mind of everything we’re gonna do

Over at the lake and down by the river
You can feel it start to rise
Wanna jump in my car, go wherever you are
‘Cause I need you by my side

It’s gonna be a long, hot summer, we should be together
With your feet up on the dashboard now
Singing along with the radio, it’s such a beautiful sound
And when you say my name in the middle of the day, I swear I see the stars come out
When you hold my hand in the back of my mind, just waiting on the sun to go down, the sun to go down

I wanna see your brown skin shimmer in the sun for the first time
I try to be the one who knows just what to do to you to get me that smile
One chance of meeting, you were walking by me on the street and I said hi
And that was the beginning of my heart spinnin’ like these wheels in my head tonight

It’s gonna be a long, hot summer, we should be together
With your feet up on the dashboard now
Singing along with the radio, it’s such a beautiful sound
And when you say my name in the middle of the day, I swear I see the stars come out
When you hold my hand in the back of my mind, just waiting on the sun to go down, the sun to go down

The only place that I wanna be is where you are
‘Cause anymore than a heartbeat away is just too far

It’s gonna be a long, hot summer, we should be together
All I really want is more than this moment right now
And when you say my name in the middle of the day, I swear I see the stars come out
And when you hold my hand and I look into your eyes
I swear it looks like you’re waiting for the sun to go down, the sun to go down

I swear it’s like you’re waiting for the sun to go down
Waiting on the sun to go down
Hey, yeah
Oh, I’m loving thinking ‘bout you
I cant sleep, I’m just lying here thinkin’ ‘bout you


5. WITHOUT YOU

I loved you since the very first day
When I caught you looking my way
I smiled and just knew it
And up until you came along
And no one ever heard my song
Now it's climbing with a bullet

It's nice to have someone so honestly devoted
But when it's said and done girl I hope you know that

The traveling, the singing, it don't mean nothing without you
The fast cars, the guitars, they are all just second to
This life, this love that you and I've been dreaming of for so long
Would all be as good as gone without you

Oh Without you yea yea

Along comes a baby girl
And suddenly my little world
Just got a whole lot bigger, yes it did
And people that I barely knew
They love me cause I'm part of you
Man it's tough to figure

How two souls could be miles from one another
But still you and me somehow found each other

The traveling, the singing, it don't mean nothing without you
The fast cars, the guitars, they are all just second to
This life, this love that you and I've been dreaming of for so long
Would all be as good as gone without you

Without you oh

Without you I'd survive
But I'd have to have the notion
That I could live this life
Just going through the motions

The traveling, the singing, it don't mean nothing without you
The fast cars, the guitars, they are all just second to
This life, this love that you and I've been building up so high
It's never gonna touch the sky without you

Without you
Without you baby baby baby without you
Without you


6. GORGIA WOODS

What kind of spell is this
That you've cast on me with your kiss?
It's like I've lost all control of my senses
This is not like me
To give in so easily
I'm dropping my guard and I'm leaving my heart defenseless
Oh, but I'm feeling good
Here beneath the pines of the Georgia woods

And what a surprise,
Hear by side
It's more than a full moonshine and it's driving me crazy
I waited so long
For something this strong
And now I gotta be falling cause I'm already calling you baby

There's nobody hear to see
The sparks 'tween you and me
We better be careful my love or the woods will be burning
Or maybe we just give in,
Throw caution to the wind
It's fate, either way, we ain't got any say in the matter

And what a surprise,
Hear by side
It's more than a full moonshine and it's driving me crazy
I waited so long
For something this strong
And I gotta be falling cause I'm already calling you baby

Uh huh
Oh take me down town
Uh huh

Yeah, I waited so long
For something this strong
And I know I'm falling cause I'm already calling you Oh

What a surprise,
Hear by your side
It's more than a full moonshine and it's driving me crazy
Oh waited so long
For something this strong
And we know I'm falling cause I'm already calling you
Oh calling you baby
Yeah, uh huh


7. RIGHT ON BACK TO YOU

The rains coming down hard tonight,
Pull the car over
Now I'm sitting alone on the roadside

I tilt the mirror down and say to me,
Why you always think the answers gotta be,
To just leave

I'm making the same mistake
I'm hoping its not too late
Because I

I don't know where id be without you now
I guess I get scared and that's why I act like such a fool
Cause you're the one thing I can't lose
I feel the tears coming
And I wanna cry
I think of us baby
And all the love inside comes shining through
And it always leads me right on back to you

I never felt it,
I never knew
Someone who could get inside my soul the way you do,
Yes you do

Yeah you got me in the palm of your hands
Its beautiful and terrifying,
can't you see
For someone like me

But instead of running in,
I know
Its when I should hold you closer
Because I

I don't know where id be without you now
I guess I get scared and that's why I act like such a fool
Cause you're the one thing I can't lose
I feel the tears coming
And I wanna cry
I think of us baby
And all the love inside comes shining through
And it always leads me right on back to you

I don't know where id be without you now
I guess I get scared and that's why I act like
Such a fool
Cause you're the one thing I can't lose
I feel the tears coming
And I wanna cry
I think of us baby
And all the love inside comes shining through
And it always leads me right on back to you

Cause nobody's ever loved me
Like you
And I was born to be your man forever

Forever baby

Yeah
I feel the tears coming
And I wanna cry
I turn the car around
And put it in drive
And I know what to do
Gonna come on back,
Come on back to you
Yeah

Oh, oh baby
Gonna come on back,
Come on back to you

Cause I can't live without you,
I can't breathe without you

Yeah
And I'm nothing, I'm nothing
Without you
Yeah

I was a fool, I was a fool baby


8. SHUT OUT THE LIGHTS

Let's get into the point, when we are not listening anymore!
Just walking round in circles and wearing holes out in the floor
I'm tired; I know you're tired and it's late,
And it's almost four.
What are you trying to achieve?
What are you trying to win?
I said the same thing three hours ago,
And now I'm saying it again.
And I know you well enough to know,
Neither one of us is giving in!

Baby, I love you I'm not going to bed angry,
Baby, I need you and I want you to be happy,
We've been going around in circles with no end insight
Maybe we should just...
Shut out the lights,
And wait till the morning
Shut out the lights,
Wait 'til the morning
Yeah

It's amazing all the awkward moments
We still carry around,
We wait to bring it all up when it all comes down.
The light is coming right now!

Baby, I love you I'm not going to bed angry,
Baby, I need you and I want you to be happy,
We've been going around in circles with no end insight
Maybe we should just...
Shut out the lights,
And wait till the morning
Shut out the lights,
Wait 'til the morning
Yeah
Cause I don't wanna lose you,
And I don't wanna hurt you,
I don't wanna feel these
Times that I'm gonna make you say
Things you don't mean in the heat of the moment.
In the heat of the moment.

Baby, I love you I'm not going to bed angry,
Baby, I need you and I want you to be happy,
We've been going around in circles with no end insight
Maybe we should just...
Shut out the lights,
And wait till the morning
Shut out the lights,
Wait 'til the morning
Yeah

(Just give it some time
Just a little bit of time,
It's gonna be alright
In the morning light
Cause I need you)
