A Place in the Sun lyrics

If I never think about her, I'll never miss her at all
Never wonder what she's doin, never give her a call
Never see her again and I'll be free as a bird
But the trouble with never is never never works

If I never bring her flowers, I'll never see her smile
If I never try to kiss her, she'll never drive me wild
And I'll never feel the need to say those three little words

Backseat of her daddy's car
I was trying not to go too far
Kept thinking about the words the preacherman said
Lightnin' flashed across the sky
I saw love in a young girl's eyes
And that's a look you never forget

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans

Once upon a lonely time
She swore she'd never let you down
You held her tight without a care in mind
While she did her runnin' 'round
At first you wouldn't face the truth
You loved her too much to let go
And though the story had to end
You wanna be her fool again
Friend, there's something you should know

She'll have you back
Back to drinkin' in no time
Back to walkin' on your knees

She left Oklahoma for California
Sunglasses on the brim of her hat
Smoke was pourin' from that old Cadillac
But she wasn't turnin' back

Just outside of Flagstaff
Motor blew on her Coup De Ville
Just in time she saw a sign
There's was a Texaco waitin' at the bottom of the hill
And she said

Somebody must be prayin' for me
Somebody out there must be prayin' for me
Must be angels I can't see

I never had no one that I could count on
I've been let down so many times
I was tired of hurtin'
So tired of searchin'
Til you walked into my life

It was a feelin' I'd never known
And for the first time, I didn't feel alone

You're more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh, we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you

She left more than just her lipstick when she walked out
Her memory keeps haunting me that's why I'm hunting you down
It's been a long time since our lips met
You've always been good at helping me forget
I'll regret it in the morning but that's not stopping me now

Senorita Margarita I'm as lonesome as a man can be
I still love her
I still need her
I'm just hoping you can comfort me

After all this time I still miss you everday
The same world spins 'round
I guess some things never change
Sometimes I go out but it never feels the same
I still look for you
Baby some things never change

When I said I love you for eternity
I just never knew how true those words would be
Just an old love song
Just a mention of your name
My heart breaks into again

She walks over to him and she says "do you remember me"
I think we might have met somewhere before
Southern Carolina is the place that comes to mind
But Hey, I guess you never really can be sure
Oh there's nothing like a true love
To go and make a fool of someone just like before
And right there for a minute
I forgot that you don't love me anymore

Then an old familiar feeling

It was Labor Day weekend I was seventeen
I bought a Coke and some gasoline
And I drove out to the county fair
When I saw her for the first time
She was standing there in the ticket line
And it all started right then and there
Oh, a sailer's sky made a perfect sunset
And that's the day I'll never forget

I had a barbeque stain on my white tee shirt
She was killing me in that miniskirt

When all our tears have reached the sea
Part of you will live in me
Way down deep inside my heart
The days keep coming without fail
A new wind is gonna find your sail
That's where your journey starts

You'll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me

Just like the waves down by the shore

Mama went to sleep one night and never woke up
Daddy cried a tear into her old coffee cup
Now all he wants to do is drink the hurt all away
If Mama was here I know what Mama would say

Carry on
Carry on
What don’t kill us makes us strong
Carry on

Little sister’s husband ran off with her best friend
Left her and the babies all alone again

I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years

Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years

He was rough, he was tough
And he drank his whiskey straight
He would fight every night if he didn’t get his way
She was kind She could find all the good in everyone
And then one day she passes his way
He felt reborn in that morning sun
And saw her face, she called his name
And from that moment he knew he’d never be the same

What you can find in the eyes of a woman

Long ago, far away
I felt your lovin’ glow upon my face
Was it a dream or just a promise made
What is my destiny

Someday I’ll find a way to shine
Leave all these rainy days behind
I know there’s got to be
Some place warm and bright for me
I’m running out of places I can run
Looking for a place in the sun

Darkness hangs overhead
Close to the point where angels fear to tread

It was Labour day weekend, I was seventeen.
I Bought a Coke and some gasoline, and I drove out to the County Fair,
When I saw her for the first time, She was standing there in the ticket line.
And It all started right then and there.
Oh a sailor's sky made a perfect sunset, and that's a day I'll never forget.

I had a barbeque stain on my white tee-shirt,
