20 Greatest Hits lyrics

i can hear the rain it's fallin softly
as i watch him lyin next to me
i can feel his heart it's beatin softly
he just loved me so tenderly
but it should be you and me

when he touches me i feel your fingers
and each time we kiss i see your face
when he locks the door behind us
then he thinks the world can't find us
but he can't see no he can't see
that it should be you and me

Last night all alone in a bar room
Met a man with a drink in his hand
He had baby blue eyes, cold black hair
and a smile that a girl understands.

And he came and sat down at my table
And as he placed his hand over mine
I found myself wanting to kiss him
for temptation was flowing like wine

And I was almost persuaded
to strip myself of my pride.

here's a song I love to sing
it's about the man that wears my ring
and even though he 's tempted he knows
i'll make sure that he gets everything
cause when he's cold he knows i'm warm
and i warm him in my arms
and when he said how i make him glad and i'm his shelter from the storm
i'm his song when he feels like singin
and i swing when he feels like swingin

I've told you almost ev'ry bedtime story
And you've heard almost ev'ry nursery rhyme
So, tonight before you go to sleep
And pray the Lord your soul to keep
Here's mommy's favorite story one more time.

Once upon a time there was a castle
And in this castle lived a King and Queen
And it came to pass, they were both were blessed
By one little blue-eyed princess

(by Billy Sherrill/Glenn Sutton)

Today I sat alone at the window
And I watched our little girl outside at play
With the little boy next door like so many times before
But something didn't seem quite right today

So I went outside to see what they were doing
And then the teardrops made my eyes grow dim
'Cause I heard him name a game and I hung my head in shame

If you can find it in your heart

To just forgive

I'll come back and live the way

You wanted me to live

All I want is just to be your girl

Please come and get me

And take me to your world

Take me to your world

Away from bar rooms filled with smoke

Where I won't have to serve a drink

Or hear another dirty joke

All I want is just to be your girl

Some times it's hard to be a woman
Givin' all your love to just one man
You'll have sad times and he'll have good times
Doin' things that you don't understand
But if you love him you'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him, aww, be proud of him
Cuz after all he's just a man

Stand by your man, give him two arms to cling to

today's the day that your tellin him that he's got to set you free
and that bein one man's woman brings you down
but before you throw away what you thank you don't want today
don't give it up for the new life that you've found

run woman run
go back to him and fix things up the very best you can
tell him you missed him while you were gone
run woman run back to your man

i'll just keep on fallin in love til i get it right
right now i'm like a woudned bird hungry for the sky
but if i try my wings and try long enough
i'm boung to learn to fly
so i'll just keep on fallin in love til i get it right

my door to love has opened out more times than in
and i'm either fool or wise enough to open it again

Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man
So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand
Like T-O-Y or maybe S-U-R P-R-I-S-E
But the words we're hiding from him now
Tear the heart right out of me.

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E; becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away
I love you both and it will be pure H-E double L for me

Sometimes its hard to be a woman
Givin all your love to just one man
You'll have bad times and he'll have good times
Doing things that you dont understand

But if you love him you'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him
Oh be proud of him
Cause after all he's just a man

Stand by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to
