It Ain't True Love Never Dies
Writer: Robert Ellis Orrall

Verse 1
She grew up believing that fairy tales and dreams come true
Someday her prince would come
And sweep her of her feet
Into a world of starry nights
He'd be there to hold her tight
Her wishes were granted when she was 21
She gave her heart to him but soon
He broke it in two

Chorus
And she cried when he left her alone
And no matter how she tries
She can't believe that he's gone
But still she denies
It ain't true love never dies

Verse 2
No one can tell her that love will let her down again
She's not going to give up hope
For someone she was born to love
And when it comes to her she'll try
To hold her heart and head up high
But something inside her won't let her forget
That everything's not how it seems
When you wake up from a dream

Repeat Chorus

Distant Thunder
Writers: Don Singleton, Sam Mullins, Shane Hill

Verse 1
She took the long way home last night
She said she just needed to drive
It seems like lately, she's had alot on her mind
Is it my imagination, or is her love slipping away?
Is it cold in here or is it the winds of change?

Chorus
There's trouble on the horizon
Sounds like it's headed our way
Off in the distance it looks like it's startin' to rain
Just like the calm before the storm
Everything seems alright
But I hear a distant thunder tonight

Verse 2
There's something different when I told her
But it's nothing that I can explain
We go through the motions but it doesn't feel the same
There's so much she's not sayin'
Something she's holding inside
There's a silent desperation in her eyes

Repeat Chorus

Come Sunset
Writers: J.B. Rudd/George Terren

Verse 1
Come sunset, the cares of the day will be fading away
Come sunset, when we're finally alone
I'll make the most of each moment, we're together
In the moonlight, holding you tight
And we'll dream of things we haven't done yet
Come sunset

Verse 2
By midnight, while you're safe in my arms
I'll be hopelessly lost in your eyes
Then lover to lover, we'll tell each other, how our lives
Just get better, with each moment, we're together
Might get a glimpse of what forever looks like
By midnight

Chorus
I count the minutes til each day is through
Cause I know I'll be spending the best part with you
Come sunset, come sunset
Oh

Verse 3
By morning, we'll be deeper in love than we've ever dreamed of
By morning
And I'll go through the day with a smile on my face,
Knowing it ends, in the moonlight, holding my breath,
Holding you tight
Sharing moments that we'll never forget
Like the very first time our eyes met
And we'll dream of things we haven't done yet
Come sunset, come sunset

Right in the Middle of My Broken Heart
Writer: Marc Beeson

Verse 1
There's a sky high wall around the pain I feel
Ever since we split up I've been a man of steel
Til' I let you go, well I held my pride
I left all my tears uncried
Til' the tidal wave couldn't be denied
Then all the walls came down

Chorus
Right in the middle of my broken heart
Down deep in the center where it's been so dark
I found the strength to let the healing start
The moment I surrendered
Here in the very last place I look
Up from the ashes straight through the hurt
One ray of hope, one tiny spark
Right in the middle of my broken heart

Verse 2
Well, life cracked me open and I thought I'd died
Cause I never thought I'd ever hear you say goodbye
Well, I slammed that door and I cursed your name
Dragged my anger like a ball and chain
Til the sweet forgiveness was all that remained
Then all the walls came down

Chorus

Tomorrowland
Writers: J.B. Rudd/George Terren

Verse 1
You dream and baby I scheme
About the big things, we're gonna do someday
We've bought into this game we're caught in
And we've lost something along the way

Chorus
Nothing wrong with dreaming baby
Nothing wrong with making plans
Sometimes I think we're missing the moment
Cause here you are and here I am
And there ain't no future living in Tomorrowland

Verse 2
The wind blows, against our high hopes
And sometimes rainbows disappear
That's how, we know what life's about
And there ain't no doubt, what we've got right here

Chorus

Bridge
Let's make a promise baby, let's take a stand
To live each day like the sun may never shine again

Tag
Cause there aint' no future living in tomorrow
Ain't no future living in tomorrow
Ain't no future living in tomorrowland

Let's Just Say
Writers: Robert Ellis Orrall/Roger Springer

Verse 1
Let's just say, we've never met before
Let's pretend, you just walked through the door
Imagine that you caught my eye and I asked you to dance
Let's just say that we met here by chance

Verse 2
Let's just say, we never cried those tears
Let's pretend, we didn't waste those years
Imagine we made up our minds to give it one more try
Let's just say, we're not here to say goodbye

Bridge
Let's just say we're sorry
And say it from the heart
And instead of ending our love
This could be the start

Verse 3
Let's just say, it's time to go back home
It's getting late, and we'd rather be alone
Let's not talk about anything but what we know is true
Let's just say, I'm still in love with you

Let's just say, I'm still in love with you

Like I've Never Been Loved Before
Writer: Unknown

Verse 1
I really thought I felt it from a southern belle in Tupelo
Until that Boise girl really rocked my world in Idaho
I thought I knew the meaning but girl you've got me thinking

Chorus
I'm wrong cause you've gone
And showed me something
So strong that I can't ignore
Cause I'm hooked and it's looking more and more
Like I've never been loved before

Verse 2
I almost bought a ring for a Cajun queen in Lafayette
Ol' cupid shot his bow several times I know he tried his best
I thought I had enough of what I thought was love

Chorus

I thought I knew the meaning but girl you got me thinking

Workin' For A Livin'
Writers: Mario Cipollina, John Colla, Bill Gibson, Chris Hayes, Sean Hopper, Huey Lewis

Verse 1
Somedays more than every and somedays passing by
I'll be working here forever, at least until I die
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
I'm supposed to get a raise next week but know right now I won't

Chorus
Working for a living, working for a living
Working for a living, living and a working
I'm taking what they're giving
Cause I'm working for a living

Verse 2
Hey, I'm not complaining cause I really need the work
Not hanging with my buddies got me feeling like a jerk
Hundred dollar car note, two hundred rent
I get a check on Friday, but it's already spent

Chorus

Verse 3
Busboy, bartender, ladies of the night
Grease monkey, ex-junkie, winner of the fight
Walking down the street, it's really all the same
Selling souls, rock and roll, any other game

Chorus

Working for a living, living and a working

Heartbreak School
Writer: Skip Ewing

Verse 1
Let me tell you 'bout my alma mater
I got educated by a rich man's daughter
I didn't have to read a single book
One lesson is all it took
My diploma reads first class fool
I graduated from Heartbreak school

Verse 2
They don't teach science, they don't teach math
Our love is history is your only class
You do your homework every lonely night
And you, stude memories til' the morning light
Forget about her is the golden rule
That's what they teach at Heartbreak school

Chorus
You don't get recess, you don't get lunch
You don't get vacation when the summertime comes
You don't get in cause they think you're smart
You pay tuition with your broken heart

Verse 3
I learn to cry, I learn to moan
I learned I hate to spend my nights alone
I studied hard on how do I forget you
And I wrote a speech on wish I never met you
I got accepted at "who needs you"
I was the valedictorian at Heartbreak school

Chorus

Verse 4
Come enroll, you've been mistreated
Get extra credit if you're baby cheated
All you need are tears and misery
Start working toward your PHD
Everybody past the age of two
Get's educated at Heartbreak School

Tag
If you're in love with someone who don't love you
Well, you're an honor student at Heartbreak school
You'll never find yourself a love that's true
Until you've graduated from Heartbreak school

The Way Love Goes
Writer: Robert Ellis Orrall

Verse 1
We've reached the top of the mountain we call love
And then we stop, as if we've climbed high enough
Now the two of us, are standing out here on the ledge
And the rock of trust, has started to crack along the edge
And another day drifts by
We don't stop and ask each other why
And I wonder when she looks at me
Can she remember how it used to be?

Chorus
Night after night we lie, pretending that neither of us knows
Ain't that the way love goes?
And we cry every tear we cry, alone in the dark so it never shows
Ain't that the way love goes?

Verse 2
So quietly, we've given up the fight
And we're lost at sea, like two ships on a moonless night
And the water is still and calm
But under the surface something's wrong
And we're sinking deeper with our pride
As our love washes away with the tide

Chorus

Tag
Ain't that the way love goes
