Did I Shave My Legs For This?   

Everything's Gonna Be Alright 













We Danced Anyway


The summer air was heavy and sweet
You and I on a crowded street
There was music everywhere.  I can see us there

In a happy little foreign town
Where the stars hung upside down
A half a world away, far far away

I remember you were laughing
We were so in love, we were so in love

Chorus:
And the band played songs that we had never heard
But we danced anyway
We never understood the words
We just sang oh la la la la la la la la la la oh
And we danced anyway

They say you can't go back
Baby I don't believe that
Come along with me, come on and dance with me

Maybe if I hold you close
Baby we could just let go
Of these things that tie us down, we'll come back around

Do you remember we were laughing
We were so in love, so in love

Repeat Chorus

We danced anyway

Count Me In

Could there be a differant ending
To the same old story
'Cause you're not the first to say
You're gonna be there for me

I need to know what's in your heart
Can you finish what you start
How can I be sure I won't be sorry

Chorus:
If heartaches and tears and shadows of doubt
Are part of the deal, you can count me out
But if you're talking about a game I can win
You can count me in

When you tell me you're the one
I've always needed
You don't know how much I'm wanting to believe it

But I've heard it all before
Now I'm needing something more
A promise is no good if you can't keep it

Repeat Chorus

How Do I Get There

We've always been the best of friends
No secrets and no demands
But suddenly from somewhere out of the blue
I see a differant light around you

One thing I haven't told you
I just want to hold you
And never let go
I need to know

Chorus
How do i get there from here
How do I make you see
How do I tell you what my heart's been tellin' me
Lost in your lovin' arms
That's where I wanna be
You know I love you
How do I get there

You probably think I've lost my mind.
Takin' this chance crossin' that line
But I promise to be truer than true
Dreamin' every night with these arms around you.

I can't wait any longer
This felling's gettin' stronger
Help me find a way

Repeat Chorus

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line
But I'll climb any mountains that you want me to climb
The perfect combination is your heart and mine
Darlin' won't you give me a sign.

Repeat Chorus

Strawberry Wine

We was working through college on my gradpa's farm
I was thirstin' for knowledge and he had a car
I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child
When one restless summer we found love growing wild
On the banks of the river on a well beaten path
Funny how those memories they last, like...

Chorus:
Strawberry wine and seventeen
The hot July moon saw everything
My first taste of love oh bittersweet
And green on the vine
Like strawberry wine

I still remember when thirty was old
My biggest fear when he had to go
A few cards and letters and one long distance call
We drifted away like the leaves in the fall
But year after year I come back to this place
Just to remember the taste, of....

Chorus

The fields have grown over now
Years since they've seen the plow
There's nothing time hasn't touched
Is it really him or the loss of my innocence
I've been missing so much

Chorus

Did I Shave My Legs For This?

Flowers and wine
Is what I thought I would find
When I came home from workin' tonight
Well now here I stand
Over this frying pan
And you want a cold one again

Chorus:
I bought these new heels
Did my nails
Had my hair done just right
I thought this new dress
Was a sure bet
For romance tonight
Well it's perfectly clear
Between the t.v. and beer
I won't get so much as a kiss
As I head for the door
I turn around to be sure
"Did I shave my legs for this?"

Now when we first met
You promised we'd get
A house on the hill with a pool
But this trailer stays wet
And we're swimming in debt
Now you want me to go back to school

Chorus

If This Is Love

Hold your racing horses just one minute
A funny feeling coming over me
I'm hearing violins and Tony Bennett
Boy if this is love then I'm in it

Chorus:
It was a triple digit summer
I thought I'd let you share my ice cream cone
We took a walk going nowhere
But I was already, already gone

The train of love is rolling and I'm on it
Destination end of the line
Every star I see I wish upon it
Boy if this is love well then I want it

Chorus

It wasn't bad as I thought it would be now was it
Simple as the dimple in your smile
I just can't resist kissin' and huggin'
Boy if this is love then i sure love it

Boy if this is love

Boy if this is love

Boy if this is love I sure love it
