Two Teardrops lyrics

(Joe Barnhill/Steve Wariner)
(Track 10 - Time 3:14)

Well you say you wanna know where I stand
Before you fall
You say love's definition is not
The same for us all
Well I can understand why you're afraid
And just so we're both on the same page
Let me try and make this whole thing clear

I'm talkin' pure devotion
A won't-be-denied emotion
Deeper than the ocean
Well that's love for you

(John Barlow Jarvis/Don Cook/Steve Wariner)
(Track 12 - Time 4:12)

Every night when the shadows come
When the world slows down
When the day is done
The clock don't move and the phone don't ring
I'm alone again
It's the same old thing
I close my eyes and try to sleep so I can be
In your arms 'til the morning sun releases me

Every night I go dream walking

(Instrumental)

(Marcus Hummon/Steve Wariner)
(Track 11 - Time 4:19)

I know he was cruel to you
He kept you down
He never heard the voice inside you
Never heard the sound
Of angels singing you know they are around
They look just like you their tears fall to the ground

So smile it's behind you now
And in time in time
You won't cry no more
You won't cry no more

Livin' in the shadows baby

(Bob DiPiero/Steve Wariner)
(Track 1 - Time 2:38)

Runnin' down the interstate
Coffee drippin' down my leg
Every day I'm runnin' late
Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time

Next lane there's a pick-up
A girl puttin' on her make-up
Her cellular phone's startin' to break up
She's gettin' slapped around by the hands of time

Everybody's runnin' a little late like me

(Max D. Barnes/Steve Wariner)
(Track 14 - Time 3:10)

When you've hitched every highway
And rode all the rails
You're no longer afraid of the dark
You get tougher than leather and harder than nails
When you've earned all the scars on your heart

Hobos and hereos, bankers and bums
In some ways we're all the same
We all have to pay for the deeds that we've done

(Jud Friedman/Alan Rich/James Newton Howard)
(Track 13 - Time 4:13)

Are those your eyes
Is that your smile
I've been looking at you forever
Yet I never saw you before
Are these your hands
Holding mine
Now I wonder how I could've been so blind

And for the first time
I am loking in your eyes
For the first time
I'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much I see

(Bill Anderson/Steve Wariner)
(Track 9 - Time 4:38)

Our weekend in Atlanta was a total disaster
We argued and you caught the first plane home
We made up and went to Memphis but there wasn't any difference
We were there together but alone

So we tried a beach in Texas a casino in Las Vegas
Once we even tried Niagra Falls
But your world and mine collided and one day you decided

(Marcus Hummon/Steve Wariner)
(Track 8 - Time 3:05)

So near so far
This close to her heart
The right word the right time
I know she would've been all mine
One day she's bound to see
How much see needs me

Did you ever wanna touch somebody so much
You could almost feel it
Did you ever wanna kiss somebody
So much you thought about stealin' it

(Bill Anderson/Jim Weatherly/Steve Wariner)
(Track 7 - Time 2:39)

Boys we're living in a brave new world
Let me tell you what I've learned about girls
In this age of high tech and state of the art
When it comes to love you've still gotta talk to her heart

She can have a college degree
MBA or a Ph.D.
She can be strong and she can be smart

(Rick Carnes/Janice Carnes/Steve Wariner)
(Track 6 - Time 3:29)

We've talked it out for hours and you're still havin' doubts
Shouldn't love be somethin' you don't have to figure out
How can I ever know just where we are
If you can't tell me what is in your heart

If you don't know by now
How could tomorrow ever change the way that you feel
If you don't know by now

(Steve Wariner)
(Track 5 - Time 3:28)

Somewhere in Dallas she is breaking someone's heart
The way that she broke mine in two
Somewhere tonight there is a man down on his knees
And he don't know what to do

I've been in that movie I've been in that song
I was the one who was so weak when she was the one so strong
I've been the fool who was helpless just trying to hang on

(Terry Ryan/Steve Wariner)
(Track 4 - Time 3:20)

My little third grade hand wrote I love you
On a note of yellow paper
And sent it to the front of the row to a little blonde-haired girl
The blonde-haired girl just opened it and read it to herself
I was so embarrassed when she turned around and said

I'm already taken
You spoke up too late
I love somebody else

(Bill LaBounty/Steve Wariner)
(Track 3 - Time 3:24)

The competition's getting tough
Good enough ain't good enough
Lately I've been workin' way too hard

Go ahead and take my hand
Forget about the rainbow's end
I'd have it all if you were in my arms

So you be my everything
And I'll be the one who loves you
I don't want you to just wear my ring
I want you to be my everything

(Bill Anderson/Steve Wariner)
(Track 2 - Time 4:29)

Two teardrops were floatin' down the river
One teardrop said to the other
I'm from the soft blue eyes of a woman in love
I'm a tear of joy she couldn't carry
She was so happy she just got married
I was on her cheek when she wiped me away with her glove
I could tell from the look on her face she didn't need me
