Don't You Forget
Who You're Talkin' Too (Tony Arata) I'll sit and listen to your pain and your trouble How everything in your love's gone wrong I'll help you pick up fromthe ruin and the rubble I'll be here for you all night long Don't try to tell me that nobody loves you Cause honey I ain't buying CHORUS: Don't you forget who you're talking to I carried your flame. Honey I still do Don't try to say nobody love you Don't you forget who you're talking to I got a shoulder here for you to cry on Do anything to make your burden light Two arms you always can rely on To hold and tell you everything's all right But, don't try and sell me on nobody loves you Cause honey I ain't buying CHORUS There's a lesson here Ringin' loud and clear In every word that you say CHORUS Morganactive Songs Inc / EMI April Music, (c/o Morgan Music Group, Inc.) - ASCAP

Mary On the Dashboard
(Walt Aldridge)

There are troubled times we live in, I know it to be true
You see it in the papers and on the television news
We are bound to be commencing the biginning of the end
A girl these days is wsise to have an angel for a friend
So I keep

 CHORUS:
 Mary on the dashboard
 Mother Mary on my dashboard
 It's just a beat up '81 Ford
 But I've got Mary on my dashboard

If I lose my bearings and I can't tell left from right
I know she will stick by me through every yellow light
She's a beacon and a deaconess standing watch alone
Like the masthead on the Mayflower
She'll lead me gently home
Cause I've got

 CHORUS

There are those who say she's plastic
And just a good luck charm
Positively powerless to keep me safe from harm

Well I try to make a point not to debate theology
But I swear I feel a power riding shotgun over me
When I've got

Direction Of Love
(Patricia Conroy)

I need to light a fire underneath your heart
If I can make you feel one tiny spark
That'll be the first step in the direction of love
And once you start to feel what I've always known
You'll begin to fall all on your own
That'll be the next step in the diertion of love

 CHORUS:
 And it'll be so easy to find
 Once your heart convinces your mind
 It'll be right under your nose and you'll wonder
 How you could've missed it all this time
 Just a litle push throuhg an open door
 You'll find a tendernous you never knew before
 You took the first step in the direction of love

 CHORUS

You took the first step in the direction of love

Sweet Little Place
(Patricia Conroy)

You and I could live in a quiet house
On a quiet street with no one around
Just sittin' in the backyard in the sun
You and I wouldn't need nobody else
Just the mailman to bring us a little bit of mail
A cool little space, a sweet little place of our own

 CHORUS:
 'Cause the world is going crazy now
 Oh I don't fit in no-how
 You're the only one who understands me at all
 I don't need to be a different girl
 All we need is a different world
 Just a cool litle space, a sweet little place of our own

We could have a little breakfast in bed
You could call into work and stay home instead
We could leave our laundry in a pile
We don't even have talk that much
The answering machine will keep us in touch
We'll forget about our problems for awhile

 CHORUS

Let's find a cool little space, a sweet little place of our own

Your True Love
(Patricia Conroy, Collin Linden)

You say that we aren't meant to be. Oh darlin' I disagree
Theres no way to change your made-up mind
Deep down I'm positive, I'll love you as long as I live
And someday you'll come to realize

 CHORUS:
 We ain't done with our love yet
 There's got to be more than what we had
 I'll wait a whole lifetime
 Just to come back
 As your true love

Not ready to settle down, you're out there still runnin' round
And you see the world through different eyes
No one can force the hand of fate
But my heart just keeps on telling me
Somehow, someday, you will be mine

 CHORUS
