Dreaming of a Dance _______________________________________________________________ When I see you dancing when you spin across the floor I know it's sweet romancing our two hearts are longing for I could watch you all night until the stars fade into blue And maybe I'm just dreaming but I'm dreaming of a dance with you It's the grace in your step the fire in the way you move And the light in your eyes on which no angel could improve Though I don't even know you I could spend my whole life through Dreaming that I'll hold you dreaming of a dance with you And then in an instant in a moment out of time I feel my heart pounding as your burning gaze meets mine (break) El amor querido que brilla en mi corazon Me lleva a tu lado al ritmo de la cancion No mas en mis suenos bailamos en realidad El amor querido es la unica verdad As I cross the room now I can feel my senses rise I can barely speak now as I gaze into your eyes Did I hear you whisper as you slipped into my arms The promise of a kiss dear as I feel your touch, your tender charms Suddenly the room is empty and we're dancing just we two And I know I'm not just dreaming now dreaming of a dance with you |
I Need a Hurricane _______________________________________________________________ I need a hurricane to blow the roof off of this life I need a tidal wave to sweep the cobwebs from my eyes I need a driving rain to wash the dust off of my heart I need a hurricane to tear everything apart I need a hurricane I need a lightnin' bolt to strike me in my tracks I need a clap of thunder to knock me on my back I need a big voodoo to drive the sense out of my brain Smash out all my windows, leave me open to the rain I need a hurricane I been sittin' waitin' for the axe to fall Now I'm painted in the corner starin' at the wall I need a hurricane I need a big earthquake to shake the footings of my soul Knock me off of my foundations, crack the walls and break the mold I need a sea to crash right in and wash away this pain I need a blinding ray of light to make me see again I need a hurricane |
Out of the Mud _______________________________________________________________ Well she's up to the axels and she don't want to roll The rain's pourin' down and the sky's black as coal The motor is stallin' like it's drowned in the flood And here I am tryin' to pull it out of the mud I need miraculous action or the angels' tire jack 'Cause when I think I got traction I just keep slippin' back I keep wadin' and strugglin' 'til my body sweats blood Lord I need a lift just to git it out of the mud Well I was headed for Memphis up from New Orleans When this storm blew in from the old Gulf Stream I was thinkin' 'bout Beale Street and makin' that scene But maybe I was just goin' there in my dreams Lord make me strong as Godzilla, give me Superman's might 'Cause now I feel like I just got a dose of Kryptonite And my super persona it went down with a thud Now like a fool I'm tryin' to pull it out of the mud I thought you and me baby we had a licence to fly 'Cause just this mornin' there was sunlight in your eyes Was it my imagination that things were goin' our way "Cause now the whole world's painted brown and gray Well we're up to the axels and she don't want to roll And no Bible Belt preacher's gonna' save my soul Nobody does it for you, it's your own sweat and blood Nobody else gonna' pull me out of the mud |
Just a Kind of Madness _______________________________________________________________ Walkin' on the street on a moonlit evening When I felt you touch my hand When I heard you laugh and I saw your smile Felt like I'd been visitin' the Reefer Man Into a small cafe with the people dancing I was taken by your charms Felt my poor heart sway to your mad romancing As you slipped into my arms Well it's just a kind of madness Felt it when I held you close to me Just a kind of madness Just the kind of madness that'll set you free Some may call it lust or infatuation Maybe it's just fallin' in love But when our bodies touched ah that sweet sensation Sent us to the stars above One minute you'll be standin' and the next you're fallin' Fallin' but it feels so right Makes you feel like dancin' that horizontile mambo And you do it all day and night Well it's just a kind of madness Darlin' I felt it when we kissed Just a kind of madness Just the kind of madness that you can't resist Just a kind of madness The kind to send us out of control Just a kind of madness Just the kind of madness that'll save your soul |
Git Along _______________________________________________________________ I'm pretty sure I can get along with you darlin' If I can get along with myself 'Cause my own head has given me more grief Than I'd ever take from anyone else I been carryin' this weight on my shoulders And singin' a sorrowful song Want to be on your side honey I've just tried to get along Get along, there's gotta be a way to get along Like the cowboys say, git along or git on your way Now all I'm tryin' to do is just git along 'Cause we both know enough to tell right from wrong Well a wrangler out ridin' he called to his steers You better quit your discontented moan 'Cause we're hittin' the trail come the spring of the year And little dogies you won't have no home But you know we're all in this together So even if you think its wrong There's nothin' to do but for me and you to git along Git along, there's gotta be a way to git along Like the cowboys say, git along or git on your way Now all I'm tryin' to do is just git along Now this old life it can be just like heaven Or it can be like time in jail I'd sure hate to look back and say we spoiled the ride When we get to the end of the trail But that open range can be so lonesome And right here is where we belong Ridin' side by side if we can just decide to git along Git along, there's gotta be a way to git along Like the cowboys say, get along or get on your way 'Cause we both know enough to tell right from wrong Git along, there's gotta be a way to git along Like the cowboys say, get along or get on your way Now all I'm tryin' to do is just git along |
Crazy Beautiful Dance _______________________________________________________________ We take two steps forward and then one step back Maybe different directions but we're on the same track And if we're not prefect well that's just how it goes Baby I'll try not to step on your toes Try again, fail again, fail better But you get nowhere if you won't take the chance We'll get it right though it might take us forever we will learn This crazy beautiful dance This crazy dance that we dance Well it's not all that simple and we might have our doubts But if you're lookin for easy you might sit your life out Got my foot in my mouth you got egg on your face But come the next tune we could fall into place Try again, fail again, fail better But you get nowhere if you won't take the chance We'll get it right though it might take us forever we will learn This crazy beautiful dance Beautiful dance that we dance This crazy dance that we dance |
