All-Time Greatest Hits lyrics

DON'T IT MAKE MY BROWN EYES BLUE
Don't know when I've been so blue,
don't know what's come over you.
You've found someone new
and don't it make my brown eyes blue.
I'll be fine when you're gone,
I'll just cry all night long.
Say it isn't true
and don't it make my brown eyes blue.
Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies.
Give me no reasons, give me alibies.

Was I right? Was I wrong?
A little too weak-- a little too strong?
Was it him? Was it me?
Oh I guess I'll never know

First you're up, then you're down
Oh but the world keeps turning around
Ain't it hard... to find...
Something to hang on to

(Chorus)
But I know, that my heart will mend
And I know, that I'll smile again
I'll be back, on my feet and then,
I'll do it all over again

One thing 'bout this heart of mine
all my hurts got a mending time
it dont leave no scars behind
I'll get over you
I'll find me a guy one day
whos not scared to give his heart away
when i do It's safe to say that I'll get over you

chorus
Ill get over you
Ill get through it when I do
Ill be good as new
when I get over you

from now on think Ill lay low

It's been a long time since you went away
I stop to think of you most every day
with all my heart I'm hoping you're okay
guess who loves you, somebody loves you

I couldn't reach you by the U.S. mail
you didn't leave a very easy trail
I tried to telephone to no avail
guess who loves you, somebody loves you
I do
Na na na na na na na na na

I know the matter is the game I played

(verse 1)
Three o’clock in the morning
And it looks like it’s going to be another sleepless night
I’ve been listening to your dreams and getting very low
Wondering what I can do

(verse 2)
Maybe I’m being foolish
cause I haven’t heard you mention anybody’s name at all
How I wish I could be sure it’s me that turns you on

It's 12 past midnight, don't close your eyes
Your soul's half alive, and I'll be by your side
I've come to take you there, show you how to care
Just be aware, that you'll have to share

1-I want your love, I want it tonight
I'm taking your heart, so don't you fight
I'll be your answer, I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy, your favorite dish

Why have you left the one you left me for?
Has she heard, like me, that slammin’ door?
Did you leave for good or just get bored?
Why have you left the one you left me for?

Is she what…
You wanted?
Or has time…
Changed your mind?
Has your dream…
Love gone crazy?
And what brings…
You here tonight?

Why have you left the one you left me for?

Well, I…
Here it comin’.
I can…
Feel it in my bones.
And it’s
Weighin’ heavy on me…
Like a…
Sack full of stones!

And I…
See it in your eyes, baby,
Each time we meet…
And I…
Sense somethin’ movin’
Underneath our feet!

Baby, our love is on the fault line!
And You’re sayin’ that the fault’s mine!
I can’t believe that you’re so blind…

Half of your love
Is just…not what I’m after.
Part of your world is just…
not what I need!
Some of your time is like…
One glass of water.
It just keeps me thirsty for wine!

So fill me up
To the top!
Oh don’t you stop,
‘till I’m over flowin’!
Love is the seed,
And babe I need…
You to keep it growin’ stronger every day!

Just you and I,
sharing our love together.
And I know in time,
we'll build the dreams we treasure.
We'll be all right, just you and I.

Just you and I
Just you and I

Sharing our love together

and I know in time,
and I know in time,

we'll build the dreams we treasure.
And we'll be all right,
just you and I.

CHORUS:
And I remember our first embrace,

Here I go once again
With my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
Yes, I'm chasing my dreams down River Road

Mama said, listen child
You're too old to run wild
You're to big to be fishin' with the boys these days

So I grabed some clothes and I ran
Stole five dollars from a sugar can

We kissed goodnight
And we turn out the light
And we lay side by side in the dark
And we're waiting for sleep or a spark

But the night's on the run
And the spark does not come
And we quietly worry and wonder
And the silence is louder than thunder
And it rings with the sound of goodbye

(Chorus)
It rings with the sound of goodbye
I can't even tell you just why

You no longer notice if I'm wearin' perfume
I seldom hear a lovin' word from you
Your attention's wrapped up in the mornin' paper
And I feel a restless yearnin' for somethin' new.

We used to whisper love across the nighttime
Now we never whisper nor recall
Our love is left upon the shelf of winter
Where the sunlight never touches it at all.

It's a habit for us to be together

Mad is the captain of Alpha Centauri
We must be out of our minds
Still we are shipmates bound for tomorrow
And everyone here's flying blind

Oh, we must believe in magic
We must believe in the guiding hand
If you believe in magic
You'll have the universe at your command

Mad is the crew bound for Alpha Centauri
Dreamers and poets and clowns
Bold is the ship bound for Alpha Centauri

For all the times you stood by me,
Through right and wrong,
For being there to catch me when I’d fall,
I love you for your faith in me,
For all the joys you've given me,
But there’s one thing makes me love you most of all.

You never gave up on me when I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work
You stayed to see it through.

I can't seen to learn not to love you
You get to me everytime
You're someone I just can't say no to
And you sure put a change in my mind

[Chorus:]
Here I go down that wrong road again
Goin' back where I've already been
Even knowin' where it will end
Here I go down that wrong road again

Though I've seen the way that you're weavin'
You and your soft easy lines
