“Losin’ Cinderella Shoes” Verse 1 There’s shadows in the corner, mama leave on the light The devil’s outside my window, I can see the fire It’s dangerous to go outside to play, and once upon a time is so very far away Verse 2 Every night the monsters, run around her dreams And happy ever after, is impossible it seems Her lullabies are changin’ all their tunes And innocence is slippin’ by, goin’ way too soon Chorus We’re losin’ Cinderella shoes, losin’ Cinderella shoes Fairy-tales get lost sometimes, Superman can’t really fly And heroes aren’t always bulletproof We’re losin’ Cinderella shoes Verse 3 The story books we read then, could take us to a place Where make-believe and fantasy, would carry us away I wish that we could go back to, the way it was before Cause childhood dreams and magic things, aren’t workin’ anymore Repeat Chorus Bridge I pray someday we’ll find a way, to turn this world around And love will conquer hate, but the way it is right now Heroes aren’t always bulletproof We’re losin’ Cinderella shoes

Beyond This Town Verse 1 Staring down these empty streets, ready to get out Thoughts runnin’ through my mind, far beyond this town Beyond this town, beyond this town Verse 2 Been thinkin’ bout breakin away, I’ve been in this place too long ready for a new dance but I’m singing the same old song The Same old song, the same old song Chorus I’m ready to break away, get out of here and run I’m ready to live my life, see what I can become Verse 3 Ya, I gotta to move on, No, I don’t belong ya, I need a new dance but I’m singin’, singin’ singin’ the same ole Chorus 2 I’m ready to break away, get out of here and run I’m ready to live my life, see what I can become Ya, this old town is choking me the ties that bind are too strong I’m ready to break away, get out of here and run

A Place Called Always Verse 1 They were young in love Too young to drink too young to drive But off they went down life’s highway Drunk on each other runnin’ wild Verse 2 Swore their love would always last until the end of time With every single mile that passed they never failed to read the signs CHORUS Just this side of forever there’s a place called always Most don’t get that far they get lost along the way Everybody thinks they'll make it Some try but they don’t stay If you wanna reach forever You got to go, you gotta go You gotta go through always Verse 3 There were twists and turns And there were rivers to cross Small battles worth the fight Always love never lost Verse 4 It’s been worth each mile they went down that long and winding road And they'd do it all again ya there's one thing that they know Repeat chorus TAG Just this side of forever ,there’s a place called always Always Always Always…

Freedom 03:20
Freedom V1: Back when I had a life, didn’t care if the world was round Busy chasin’ rainbows til I ran em down Ya, I may be a dreamer and that may be my fall But back when I had a life I sure did have it all CHORUS I had freedom Nothing, to hold me down Give me freedom To turn this life I’m livin’ around V2 There are thoughts with plenty and it’s easy to survive Me I’m working two jobs just to stay alive Still I’m proud to be livin’ in the land of the free And that’s the one thing they can’t take from me CHORUS I have freedom Nothing, to hold me down Give me freedom To turn this life I’m livin’ around BRIDGE So when I’m caught up in this daily grind All pain, no gain I know it’s only just a matter of time Til I’ll break loose from this ball and chain TAG I need freedom I want freedom Give me freedom I want freedom Oh give me freedom (Oh give me freedom) Hmm, oh ya

MIDNIGHT IN BIRMINGHAM V 1 Don’t know a soul in this old city Don’t plan to stay around that long If I had my way and a one way ticket babe Yesterday I’d be gone V 2 He was a long shot at forever But I had to take it just the same If I’d only known where he would lead me I’ve only got myself to blame Chorus 1 There’s no cold, like the sidewalk on the south side When the wind blows down the avenue and chills ya to the bone And there’s no blue, like that old empty feeling That leaves you with the bitter taste of knowin’ you were wrong Feels like it’s always been, midnight in Birmingham V 3 If I’d stayed in Sacramento I’d be okay, I’d be alright Or maybe if I were down in Denver Least I could see the stars tonight Chorus 2 But there’s no cold, like the sidewalk on the south side When the wind blows down the avenue and chills ya to the bone And there’s no blue, like that old empty feeling That leaves you with the bitter taste of knowin’ you were wrong Feels like it’s always been, midnight in Birmingham Bridge He called me last week from just outside Houston To swear he was settling down But it won’t be long til the grass looks greener And he’s drifting to some other town Chorus 3 Where there’s no cold, like the sidewalk on the south side When the wind blows down the avenue and chills ya to the bone And there’s no blue, like that old empty feeling That leaves you with the bitter taste of knowin’ you were wrong Feels like it’s always been, midnight in Birmingham

Old Bridges 02:47
Old Bridges V1 She was a small town girl, got lost in a big old world Left her mama cryin’ on the porch Her daddy wonderin’ what she was leavin’ for Now she dreams of goin’ back, to a time and a place in her past But the distance seems too far Down a highway paved with broken hearts Chorus Old bridges are hard to cross They’re seldom found when you get lost You best not burn ‘em as you leave On the way back home you’ll need, old bridges V2 He Sits alone in the pourin’ rain, nothin’ to ease the pain Lookin’ at the angel tracks Fightin’ with the devil on his back He’s wishin’ that he knew now, how to turn this hell around But the river run too deep, and heaven knows just what he needs Repeat chorus Bridge It’s easy not to see, that sometimes all we need, are Chorus 2 Old bridges, there to cross To lead us home when we get lost best not burn ‘em as you leave On the way back home you’ll need, old bridges
7.
Someday I’ll Fly V1: Someday I’ll fly, and I’ll touch the Heavens Sail far above, the troubles below These broken wings, will lift me again And I’ll sail with the wind, someday I’ll fly V2: Like the blink of an eye, is to forever So to this life, is meant to be We’re just passin’ through, and the best we can say Is we left our mark, along the way Repeat chorus Bridge: I’ll be released, by love and grace Never again, to be held in, my demon’s embrace Repeat chorus Tag: These broken wings, will lift me again I’ll sail with the wind, someday I’ll fly

Sunderland Road Verse 1 It was a nine hundred square foot box with singles on the side Just a two bedroom space I spent the first part of my life We didn’t have the finer things that others could afford But when it came to love, we had more Growing up on Sunderland road Sunderland Road... Verse 2 A porch on the back were we’d go the neighbors couldn’t see Our little bit of country hidden in the trees With a cheap flat top six string singin’ Willie Nelson Songs Safe in the moment knowing were we belong Living on Sunderland Road Chorus Now and then my mind rolls me back there To that little house, on a little road, in a little town I can see it all so crystal clear That little girl in her little world My heart and soul, Sunderland road Sunderland Road... Verse 3 Now here I am years away in a life that I call mine Leaving home thinking there would be more out there to find But this empty world moves so fast, it leaves me behind Oh how I long, how I long to go back to Sunderland road Repeat chorus Tag Sunderland Road Oh how I wanna go, back to Sunderland Road Time moves slow, on Sunderland road Sunderland Road

A Time When There Was You Verse 1 I was lost alone, wanderin’ this desert Searchin’ for pleasure, solitude was my last stand when your love rained down and surely delivered A flood like a river, onto dry land CHORUS I never knew, love could be like this till there was you A tune I can’t resist dancin’ to With each day I’ll treasure every memory we make And I’ll be grateful for, every bruise and every scar that led me to A time when there was you Verse 2 I’d say my time, been wasted before you But then again that’s not true ‘cause each path that I’ve been on Has lead me here, and I might have missed this I wouldn’t know that here is, where I belong CHORUS I never knew, love could be like this till there was you A tune I can’t resist dancin’ to In the end, I’ll be sad this life is over, but til then I’ll be grateful for, every bruise and every scar that led me to A time when there was you TAG Yes I’ll be grateful for, every bruise and every scar that led me to A time when there was you

SOME KIND OF LONESOME VERSE 1 Some kind of lonesome, One hell of a pain Left my heart homeless, You took everything Some kind of heartache, Like none I’ve ever known Unforgiving, like a cold deep winter snow And oh, your one hell of a heartache VERSE 2 Unforgettable, babe that’s what you are Trapped within me, A prison without bars I remember, just how we loved Freely living , In each and every touch CHORUS And oh You’ve gotta know Just how Just how baby Just how you touch my soul You’ve gotta know CHORUS 2 And oh You’ve gotta know Just how Just how baby Just how you touch my soul Why don’t you know TAG Some kind of lonesome One hell of a pain Left my heart homeless You took everything
