2:00 oclock in the morning.. as she "cried without a sound"...
Three days after Christmas.. in a sleepy southern town,
The year was 1956.. and Chevy's ruled the road...
When I was born.. Momma's tears was the only pain she showed,
The second born of seven.. while five stood in the wings...
Waiting for a chance at life.. and all the pain it brings,
I've watched her do our laundry.. on a washboard in the cold...
And even though her hands were blue.. her heart was made of gold,
Raising seven children.. alone and somewhere new..
I wonder where she got the strength.. to do the thing's she'd do,
She taught us to be strong and just.. and pray to "God" above...
And I knew if I lost everything.. I'd never loose her love,
We never had much money.. and there was no "silver spoon"...
We were blessed with so much more.. my Mom hung the moon.

They say that I'm a dreamer.. and I'd have to say its true...
Its just that when I sleep.. all I dream about is you,
I've tried to back away from you.. I've tried to clear my head...
But life without you.. feels as though I'm hanging by a thread,
I don't know.. just what it is.. that I'm supposed to do...
I can't stop the sunrise.. or "what I feel for you",
I can't make you understand.. " I have no control"...
Or look beyond what you see.. into the window of my soul,
And I can't show, my love for you.. that swell's inside my heart...
Is the very love, I can't control.. thats tearing me apart,
If I had.. just one wish.. I would have you close your eyes...
So that you could see and feel .. the truth beyond the lies,
To lay my hands upon you.. as your heartbeats next to mine...
To stare into those deep blue eyes.. that always seem to shine,
To bring a dream to life.. to make a wish come true...
To hold my heart.. in your hands.. because you wanted too,
Just one chance to show you.. the dreams that haunt my sleep...
Just one chance to know you.. and love that I can't keep.

It lies in wait.. a dormant beast...
residing where there's none...
In the hills.. and caves of dark...
where rocks are weighed in tons,
Waiting for the blood-red moon...
when slumber is no more...
It rises from the darkest depths...
and steps out of ancient lore,
You strain your eyes to see it...
through the shadows of the trees...
But you know that something lies in wait...
you can smell it in the breeze,
The crackling of a breaking branch...
the rustling in the brush...
Your heart pounds like thunder...
and your blood begins to rush,
You turn to see those big red eyes...
as they are set on you...
And the distant echo's of your screams...
too late for legends true,
It roams the hills on moonless nights...
in search of scattered souls...
A thousand years.. it hasn't changed...
and no one knows the toll,
Legends warn.. of thee beware...
what lies beyond the road...
The Beast of Agua Fria lives...
where blood-red river's flow.

It's way past time to say goodbye...
for decisions you have made...
You treat love... like its a game...
and think people should be played,
So let me tell you how I feel...
and say goodbye to you...
I never thought I'd say the words...
much less believe its true,
You don't love me anymore...
the way a lover should...
And I can't stand... three rows back...
and play like its all good,
This heart will always love you...
and I wish you the best...
And pray that "God" watch over you...
and hope your life is blessed,
I hope you find.. what I call truth...
before the truth finds you ...
The things I've learned about you lately...
I wish I never knew,
You've changed so fast.. and so much...
I don't know who you are...
And the distance now between us...
has never been so far,
If this is who you really are...
you hid it well from me...
But now the truth has come to light...
and the truth has set me free.

There's not much you can say..
when your heart is on the line...
Everything you say or do..
can hurt you everytime,
Knowone really seems to know..
just what you feel inside...
And knowone really cares about..
just how much you've cried,
So I try to grab a moment..
when a moment comes along...
Because I believe whats from the heart..
could never be that wrong,
A moment passes quickly..
but the memory's there to stay...
Its all I have to hold onto..
that gets me through the day,
So please don't think.. I'd ever want..
something you can't give...
I'm just grabing at a "moment" ..
from this lonely life I live,

"Dream"
Do you know how hard.. it is to say...
that I'm in love with you...
When I know you'll never feel the same...
no matter what I do,
To know that you will never care...
to never feel your touch...
Is almost more than I can bear...
when truth becomes too much,
It's not as if I didn't know...
what I'd stepped into...
It was more about just knowing...
what's inside of you,
For that, I don't regret...
this pain that wounds my heart...
If we didn't love each other...
this world would come apart,
I know the dreams within my heart...
I'll never realize...
But it takes me to a distant place...
when I look into your eyes,
And though my heart is broken...
it's not always as it seems...
We will always be together...
when I close my eyes and dream.

I gently take you by the hand..
but only in my dreams,
And lay you down upon my bed..
beyond the moonlight beams...
Just one look from those blue eye's..
and I've lost all control...
And everything I thought I knew..
I never knew at all,
I've laid by you a thousand times..
but only in my dreams...
For in that world.. you are mine..
beyond the moonlight beams,
I've tried to tell you how I feel..
and I've tried to make you care....
But you can't make someone feel..
when the feeling isn't there,
You tell me that you love me..
but only in my dreams...
In that world our love is strong..
beyond the moonlight beams,
I know I'll never hear the words..
or ever feel your touch...
But I have but just to fall asleep..
and you love me just as much,
I lay my head upon your chest..
but only in my dreams...
And in the darkness.. we are one..
beyond the moonlight beams,
I've cried myself to sleep..
after dreams I've had of you...
And then cried harder still..
when I had to face the truth,
I've held you close against my heart..
but only in my dreams...
And we've made love a thousand times..
beyond the moonlight beams,
When I look into those deep blue eye's..
it takes my breath away...
And this whole dam world could dissapear..
if only you would stay,
You gave to me your heart and soul..
though only in my dreams...
But Its ..happy ever after...
beyond the moonlight beams.

Should I tell you what it does to me..
to get too close to you...
And lose control of everything..
I've tried to hold onto,
Should I tell you how I really feel..
though you don't feel the same?
Or play like there's no pain at all..
and to me its just a game,
Should I turn away, when you look at me..
and say its all been lies...
Because there's nothing that I wouldn't do..
when I look into blue eyes,
Do I hide the fact that I'm in love..
and never let you see...
That everything you are..
means everything to me,
Do I talk about the sleepless nights..
or that I dream of you...
Or do keep it all inside..
the way I always do,
I can't let you see the pain..
and I won't let you know...
A heart in love.. all alone..
has no place to go,
Should I tell you what you mean to me..
as the chips fall where they may...
Or take this broken heart and run..
far .. far .. away.

Changes in my life.. are comming hard and fast...
I've lost almost everything.. of things I thought would last,
I lost my job.. then my home.. and the bad luck didn't end...
For yesterday I lost my heart... when I lost my one best friend,
I've heard "God" won't put on you.. more than you can take...
Well if your listening.. Lord.. I've nothing left to break,
My life is in such shambles.. I'm walking on the edge...
What used to be a wide path.. is now a narrow ledge,
I teator on the brink.. not sure which way to go...
It seems my head is spinning.. but my world is moving slow,
Are you calling to me "Father"... is there something I must do?
Well I'm putting my life in your hands.. to leave it up to you,
Theres nothing left to offer.. I've got nothing left to give...
Except this broken heart... and what life is left to live,
I've nowhere else to turn.. so today I turn to you...
For the burdens I once carried.. I'm no longer able too,
I hope that you can hear me.. for I've been so far away...
But I'm ready to come home now.. if you'll help me find my way.

My heart is all but shattered.... and the pieces fall like rain....
Scattered by the wind... it seems to numb the pain,
I have lost myself... and it seems I've lost my way....
My direction is uncertain... and nothing feels OK,
I don't know where I'm going... or just what lies ahead...
But I can hear the whispers... though I don't know what was said,
I feel as though a part of me... has died and blown away...
And I am just an empty shell... `with nothing left to say,
The echo's in the distance... are ringing in my ears...
And as the sun begins to rise.... I wipe away the tears,
Its strange it seems... how life goes on... while yours is crashing down...
And though one "love"is at its end... another one is found,
And so it goes.. the circle... as it was meant to be...
"We laugh.. we cry.. we live.. and die"... and then our soul is free,
So I will gather the pieces... of my scattered wind blown heart...
And never look over my shoulder... at the world you tore apart.
