Inside Out lyrics

Seven Year Ache

You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
So who does your past belong to today?
Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way

The girls in the bars thinking, "who is this guy?"
But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies
You look so careless when they're shooting that bull

"When We Were Still In Love"
(written by Jude Johnstone)

When we were still in love
I knew just what to do
For my heart was like a child at play
When all the world is new

When we were still in love
I didn't have a fear
'Cause I still believed a love like ours
Would never disappear

I remember everything
As if it were happening
When the promise that we made

If I'd have known the way that this would end
If I'd have read the last page first
If I'd have had the strength to walk away
If I'd have known how this would hurt

I would've loved you anyway
I'd do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I'd have loved you anyway

It's bittersweet to look back now

I think you do, then I think you don't
Maybe you will, maybe then you won't
Don't understand baby why you can
just call it quits if you can't commit
I know what I want, only how I feel
but I don't want your love if it ain't real no
I think it's time you made up your mind
Baby what's your plan, I need to understand if...

Chorus:
You're gonna love me or leave me

What do you do when love comes along
and offers your heart a chance to move on
with no guarantees, no safety net,
trust what you feel, you take that first step
just close your eyes
and reach for the moment before it slips by
here is your second chance, take it and fly

the weight of the world, the need to survive
has made you believe that you got no right
and out of the blue,

You said you were afraid to trust
So sorry for yourself, it must be hard
Living inside your head
And I'm no angel in disguise
I've had my share of alibis
But I was true to you
I meant every word I said
What's the use
You believe whatever you want to

Chorus:
You can run, you can hide
Love will still come to find you
You can turn it away
Keep romancing your pain

Seven Year Ache

You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
So who does your past belong to today?
Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way

The girls in the bars thinking, "who is this guy?"
But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies
You look so careless when they're shooting that bull

It's been a long road but we got here/It wasn't easy but it was true/We found
out through all the bad times/ It all comes down to me and you

We held the greatest expectations/ Only to find it was not to be/ All the
dreams we left behind us/ Only serve to set us free

Chorus: We don't need no bag of silver/ We don't need no fields of gold/ Don't

Saturday, slept through the morning
Just let the phone ring, now isn't that strange
I watched cartoons, poor old coyote
Someone had a worse day than me for a change
And it made me happy, it made me smile
For a while

You always said my friends were all crazy
Baby here lately it seems I fit in
We go out just like the old days
Try to find new ways to go there again

(Rebecca Lynn Howard/Trey Bruce)

It took a while for me to see things as they were
In the light of truth
It wasn't you,it was me
I let myself get used to drowning in the hurt
Against the wall
Who'd of thought,it was me
From there I couldn't even look over my shoulder
I kicked down all the walls and started all over

And I don't paint myself into corners anymore

(Bryan Adams/Gretchen Peters)

The biggest lie you ever told
Your deepest fear about growin' old
The loneliest night you ever spent
The angriest letter you never sent
The girl you swore you'd never leave
The one you kissed on New Year's Eve
The sweetest dream you had last night
Your darkest hour, your hardest fight

I wanna know you, like I know myself

Once I heard the whistle
Of a mournful midnight train
Sing a little duet
With a siren in the rain
They sang about true love
Between the damned and the devout
And right then for a moment
The fire in me blew out

And for a moment I felt my shackled heart unchained

It was right then...instant liberation
It was not long...but I was set free
It was release...for a moment love let go of me

Ever since I lost you baby I've been here and there
Looking for some piece of mind, I can't find it anywhere
I went down to Tunica, played me a little blackjack
Saw a wino on the corner, gave my winnings back

Chorus:
If it was just money
Baby, I could make it
But living without you
Can I take it
All I see ahead of me is
Is just melancholy blue
Cause I ain't got no future without you
