Sugarland lyrics - Love On The Inside

All I Want To Do lyrics

I don't want to get up, baby lets turn off the phone
I don't want to go to work today or even put my make-up on
I got better things to do on my to-do list anyway
Hide under the covers and waste away the day

[Chorus:]
Let's just lay here and be lazy, baby drive me crazy
All I want to do.....
All I want to do..... is love you

I got my whole life to change the world and climb ladders
Looking at you looking at me is the only thing that matters
Come a little closer baby we can talk without words
Hang a sign on the door, "Please do not disturb"

[Chorus]

Give me a kiss, from that Elvis lip
You don't want to miss this

All I want to do.....
All I want to do..... is love you

All I really want to do is
All I really want to do is
All I really want to do is love you and love you and love you

Come a little closer baby we can talk without words
Hang a sign on the door,
"Please do not, please do not, please do not, please do not disturb"

When I lay down in the evening
All I really want to do is
When I wake up when I wake up in the morning baby
All I really want to do is

Ooo.....

Already Gone lyrics

My Mama mapped out the road that she knows
Which hands you shake and which hands you hold
In m hand-me-down Mercury, ready to roll
She knew that I had to go
And hangout, make lots of noise
Make the mistakes that she made 'cause she knew all along

I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on

They say the first time won't ever last
But that didn't stop me. the first time he laughed
All my friends tried to warn me the day that we met
"Girl, don't you lost your heart yet"
But his dark eyes dared me with danger
And sparks fly like flame to a paper
Fire in his tourch burning me up, but still I held on

I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on

The last time I say him, we packed up my things
And he smiled like the first time he told me his name
And we cried with each other
We split the blame for the parts that we couldn''t change
Pictures, dished and socks
It's our whole life down to one box There he was waving goodbye on the front porch alone

But I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
Hangout, make lots of noise
And layout late with a boy
Make the mistakes that she made, life is a runaway train

My mama mapped out the road that she knows
Which hands to shake, which hands you hold
In my hand-me-down Mercury
Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on

Come On Get Higher lyrics

I miss the sound of your voice
I miss the rush of your skin
I miss the still of the silence
As you breathe out and I breathe in

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
Make you believe
Make you forget

[CHORUS:]
So come on get higher
Loosen my lips
Faith and desire
And the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

[REPEAT CHORUS]

I miss the sound of your voice
The loudest thing in my head
And I ache to remember
All the violent, sweet, perfect words that you said

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
Make you believe
Make you forget

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

I miss the sound of your voice
I taste the sparks on your tongue
I see angels and devils and God when you come on
Hold on...

Sing sha la la la
Sing sha la la la

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

Because everything works love
Because everything works in your arms

Fall Into Me lyrics

When the weight of the world
Breaks down so strong it
Leaves footprints on the street
And theres too many miles to face
Without a few more hours sleep
The storm clouds overhead won't shed
Any rain to quench your thirst
I wanna be the one you reach for first

When your faith is stretched so thin
That you can see right through your soul
And you cant find a nickel to buy a smile cuz all ur pockets all got holes
You wanna shut the door and
Hide before the day can get much worse
I wanna be the one you reach for first

Fall into me
My arms are opened wide
And you dont have to say a word
Cuz I already see
That it's hard
And you're scared
And you're tired
And it hurts
And I wanna be the one you reach for first

I wanna be the bottle you've been drinkin with your eyes
Or the road you run away on
You've been runnin all your life
The third row pew that you last knew
As a child in church
I wanna be the one you reach for first

Fall into me
My arms are opened wide
And you don't have to say a word
Cuz I already see
That it's hard
And you're scared
And you're tired
And it hurts
And I wanna be the one you reach for first

Before you turn the key
Before you fall asleep
Before you drift away
To find some demons waiting for you
In your dreams
Before your arms stretched wide open
Before you're reaching for the sky
Before you're searching for direction
And all the answers till you fall

Fall into me
My arms are stretched opened wide
You don't have to say a word
Cuz I already see
That its hard
And your scared
And your tired
And it hurts
And i wanna be the one you reach for first

Genevieve lyrics

My heart's grown cold. There's not much left.
My blood won't turn. And I can see my breathe.
She walks above the angels room.
Catch the snow, feels like winter.
I'd do anything to just be with her.

Well the world won't turn. The world won't turn.
The frames won't break. And the letter's won't burn.
The whole thing seemed like Einsteins dreams.
See the smoke, start to shiver.
I'd do anything to just forget her.

She's my Genevieve. She's my lazy river.
She's my only love. She's my favorite sinner, Genevieve.
Wo-ho Genevieve.

Sometimes I see her. A cold chill of fever.
So easy to believe her.

She's my Genevieve. She's my lazy river. (Genevieve)
She's my only love. She's my favorite sinner, Genevieve. (sinner)
Wo-ho...

She's my Genevieve. She's my lazy river.
She's my only love. She's my favorite sinner, Genevieve.
Wo-ho Genevieve.

It Happens lyrics

Missed my alarm clock ringing
Woke up telephone screaming
Boss man singing his same old song

Rolled in late about an hour
No cup of coffee, no shower
Walk of shame with two different shoes on

Now it is poor me, why me, oh me
Boring the same old worn out blah blah story
There is no good explanation for it at all

Ain't no rhyme or reason
No complicated meaning
Ain't no need to over think it
Let go laughing
Life don't go quite like you planned it
We try so hard to understand
Irrefutable, indisputable
The fact is
Psssh
It happens

Joey lyrics

What if I said yes
What if I'd gone out that night
What if you'd turned left
Everything would've turned out alright
What if I'd spoke up
What'd if I'd took the keys
What if I had tried a little harder instead of always trying to please

Joey I'm so sorry
Ohh can you hear me
Joey I'm so sorry

What if I'd said no
What if we'd never fell in love
What if we'd gone slow
Or a little be faster and broken up

Would I know this hurt
Would I feel this pain
Do you know that with all I have left in my very last breath I will call your name

Joey I'm so sorry
Ohoohoh can you hear me?
Joey I'm so sorry

Were you sad
Were you scared
Did you wish for a prayer to be free
Was it quiet and cold
Was it light or too dark to see
And did you reach for me

Joey I'm so sorry
Ohh can you hear me?
Joey I'm so sorry
Oohhhohh can you hear me
Joey I'm so...
Joey I'm so..... sorry

Keep You lyrics

We said goodbye. Tried her hand at magic.
But we couldn't make us disappear.
Not a day goes by I don't wish I had you.
So run away, I'm glad you're still here.
It's a bitter sweet victory.
Lovin' the ghost in front of me.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
And I can't run, can't hide.
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do to keep you?
What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

I wrote a couple of notes.
One in love, one in anger.
They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.
Lived louder than my voice. Struggled through a stranger.
He loved me until I loved you even more.
It's a bitter sweet victory.
Lovin' someone else who wanted me.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
And I can't run, can't hide.
You get used to the pain, and numb to the sting
Till you can't feel anything.

You tried to explain, but I couldn't hear it.
As if your words were my tears.
Flowing freely, warm and quiet.
From the edges of my eyes and my ears.
Then all that disappears.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
And I can't run, can't hide.
Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
And I can't run, can't hide.

What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do to keep you?
What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

Life In A Northern Town lyrics

(feat. Little Big Town and Jake Owen)

A Salvation Army band played
And the children drank lemonade
And the morning lasted all day, all day
And through an open window came
Like Sinatra in a younger day
Pushing the town away, away

Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

They sat on the stony ground
And he took a cigarette out
And everyone else came down to listen
It was the winter 1963
It felt like the world would freeze
With John F. Kennedy and the Beatles, yeah, yeah

Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
They shut the factory down
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

The evening had turned to rain
Watched the water roll down the drain
As we followed him down... to the station
And he would never wave goodbye
You could see it written in his eyes
As the train pulled out of sight, right by

Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Heya ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah-hey ma ma ma, take it easy on yourself
Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Heya ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma
Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Heya ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma
Ah-heya ma ma ma, into the night-ahh
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

Love lyrics

Is it the face of a child
Is it the thrill of danger
Is it the kindness we see in the eyes of a stranger
Is is more than faith
Is is more than hope
Is is waiting for us at the end of our rope

[Chorus:]
I say, it's love
I say, it's love

Is it the one you call home
Is it the Holy Land
Is is standing right here holding your hand
Is it just like the movies
Is it rice and white lace
Is it the feeling I get when I wake to your face

[Repeat Chorus]

Is it the first summer storm
Is it the colors of fall
Is it having so little
And yet having it all
Is it one in a million
Is it a change to belong
Is it standing right here singing this song

[Repeat Chorus 4x]

Is it a veil or a cross
Is it the poet's gift
Is it the face that has launched over thousands of ships

Is it making you laugh
Is it letting you cry
Is it where we believe that we go when we die
Is it how you were made
Is it your mother's ghost
Is it the wish that I'm wishing for you life, for your life, for your life the most

Operation: Working Vacation lyrics

Gotta get a handle on the situation
(Operation, working vacation)
A soul solution for my frustration
(Operation, working vacation)
So, I made myself a little reservation
A one way ticket to liberation
Way overdue by my calculation
Operation: working vacation

Well, this bottle's been working on my concentration
(Operation, working vacation)
The more I drink, the more the waves keep 'a waving
(Operation, working vacation)
The office keeps calling with complications
A big break down in communication
They keep leaving messages I keep erasing

[Chorus:]
Operation, working vacation
Operation, working
You've gotta get out sometime
And let in the big sunshine

So, I made a little space for inspiration
(Operation, working vacation)
Might have to go back to school, post graduation
(Operation, working vacation)
And get my degree in intoxication
Gonna re-define higher education
Maybe i'll inspire a whole generation

[Repeat Chorus]

Operation, working vacation

Steve Earle lyrics

One more!
Well I heard Steve Earle had lots of wives,
About as many as cats have lives.
Met him on his records and we're good friends.
He writes a song for everyone.
They fall in love and before it's done,
He writes an even better one when it ends.
Well I don't have to take your name.
And you won't have to take the blame.

[Chorus]
Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me.
I promise I won't take a dime when it comes my time to leave.
The others wanted your whole heart, but I just want your sleeve.
Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me.

Well I heard he loves each one the same,
As much as Ireland loves the rain.
Steve, it rains at my house everyday.
He met 'em all in every port,
'Cause falling in love is a pilgrim sport.
And as long as I can be the pirate, I'm ok!
You moved to the city. Baby, you had to go.
But I love apples and I could learn to love the snow.

[Chorus]

Come on!
[Instrumental break]

I could walk around in your favorite shoes.
Come on, just one line,
What do you got to lose?
And I don't bruise.

Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me.
I promise I won't take a dime when it comes my time to leave.
The others wanted your whole heart, but I just want your sleeve.

[spoken]
And the shirt that goes with it 'cause it smells like you, and you know I like to sleep in that in the vacation house at the
beach and a really small wedding, only 'bout 300 people.
Did I tell you I have kids?
You're gonna love 'em.
They're gonna need to go to college.
Do you like reggae?
I love reggae.
On Tuesday nights, I like to go to trivia, so that's your night to go out with the boys and then you can...
Is this thing on?

Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me.

I do!
Yeah!
Fine!
Cool!
Should we come listen then?

Take Me As I Am lyrics

Radiator says 95
but I ain't felt a drop of heat all night
here in this motel there's no tellin me nothin'
I come here five nights a week
to clean the toilets and change these sheets
my name's Maggie Duran
Baby ain't that somethin'

[Chorus:]
If you want it
Come and get it
If you want it
Come and get it
You'll understand
You take me as I am

I know these corners I know these streets
Curbside prophets they're yellin' at me
He can save my soul for a drink and a dollar
They keep starin' at my tattoos
We all live with the scars we choose
They might hurt like hell
but they all make us stronger

[Chorus]

Slow to trust but I'm quick to love
Push too hard and I give too much
I ain't sayin' I'm perfect
but I promise I'm worth it
Now I'm standing here in front of you
Tell me boy what you gonna do
My name's Maggie Duran
Baby ain't that somethin'

[Chorus]

Very Last Country Song lyrics

Today is my birthday and all that I want
Is to dig through this big box of pictures
In my kitchen 'til the daylight's gone

This one here's my mama
With the long, brown hair
I'm 40 years older today than she was in that picture there

[CHORUS:]
But if life stayed the way it was
And loves never fell out of love
If memories didn't last so long
If nobody did nobody wrong
If we knew what we had before it was gone
If every road led back home
This would be
The very last country song

These are all my babies
Lord knows how we survived
The first one was hard and that last wasn't planned
What a big surprise
That's him with his daddy's eyes

I loved the man in this one
It's faded but I don't care
There are nights when I wake up and know he's beside me I swear
Sometimes I still feel him there

[REPEAT CHORUS]

If we knew what we had before it was gone
If every road led back home
This would be the very last country song

We Run lyrics

Snake oil and roses. Pockets of dirt.
Hands of a fortune teller's son
Young love shaking the earth, like a heart shot out of a gun.
Lips like gravity pull me under. Wreckless weather on his breath.
Smells like rain, it hits like thunder.
A storm is coming, I got nothing left.

So we run... Yeah Yeah Yeah, we run.
Come undone like a string on a sweater, that you pull but you know better,
But doing what you shouldn'ts half the fun.
So we run.

Fire and laughter. Fence posts flying.
Feel the fever in the air.
Can't remember what came before him, and what after I don't care.
Hands are tremblin'. I Swore I wouldn't.
One more look and I'll give in.
Hundred reasons why I shouldn't.
But I lost my heart and wanted him to win.

So we run... Yeah Yeah Yeah, we run.
Come undone like a string on a sweater, old enough and should know better
But doin' what you shouldn'ts half the fun.
So we fun.

Nah Nah Nah Nah
Nah Nah Nah Nah
Nah Nah Nah Nah

I hear the lever on his voice. It's a calling not a choice,
And I can't keep myself from following the sound.
Yeah you may never know, how fast that you can go,
Till someone lifts your feet up off the ground.
So we run... Yeah Yeah Yeah, we run.
Come undone... Yeah Yeah Yeah, undone.
So we run... Yeah Yeah Yeah, we run.
So we run... Yeah Yeah Yeah, we run.
Yeah.

[x25]
Nah Nah Nah Nah

What I'd Give lyrics

What I'd give to bring you flowers.
What I'd give to get you alone.
What I'd give to bring a smile across your face.
What I'd give to take you home.
What I'd give to make you coffee.
Find out how you like your eggs.
Wrapped around you in the mornin'.
A tangled lace of arms and legs.

[Chorus]
What I'd give to let you love me.
Find out everything that brings you joy.
Wake up to your face above me.
I'd be that girl and you could be that boy.
Find out why that feelin' is...
Oh, what I'd give. What I'd give.

What I'd give to take you dancin'.
What I'd give to make you mine.
If you got questions, I got answers.
And my answer's "yes" to you every time.
What I'd give for just one minute.
What I'd give to count all the ways
If your heart was dark with nothing in it.
I'd give you mine and take your place.

[Chorus]
What I'd give to let you love me.
Find out everything that brings you joy.
Wake up to your face above me.
I'd be that girl and you could be that boy.
Find out why that feelin' is...
Oh, what I'd give. What I'd give.

Wishing lyrics

Sometimes it's a pair of old faded denim
I know it's gonna fit me like a friend
Or some radio song you can't help but sing along
Wishing they'd spin it over and over again

Could be the windows down on a Sunday drive
Smell of rain on a summer night
Anything that brings a little more comfort my way
But sometimes, there's those times
It's gotta be you

[CHORUS]
I keep telling myself I'm movin' on
But I'm stumbling
Believin' my heart was strong enough
And now I'm wanderin'
But every step I take that leads me away
Just circles back to your door
Wishin' I didn't love you anymore

I've tried turning to the arms of someone new
But I can't seem to fool this fool
I've seen closin' times with every bottle dry
And I've seen days alone in my own room
I've asked God and magazines, stacks of books and movie screens
Anything to bring a little more comfort my way
But sometimes, there's those times
It's gotta be you

[CHORUS]
I keep tellin' myself I'm movin' on
But I'm stumbling
Believin' my heart was strong enough
And now I'm wandering
'Cause every step I take that leads me away
Just circles back to your door
Wishin' I didn't love you anymore
Will you give me more?

I've done everything I can to forget
If there is a way, I ain't found it yet

I keep tellin' myself I'm movin' on
Believin' my heart was strong
But every step I take that leads me away
Just circles back to your door
Wishin' I didn't love you
What I'd give if I could touch you
Wishin' I didn't love you anymore
