No I Don't Miss You

Tonight I’m a long way from home
A few hundred miles of road on my own
I wanted to see the sun on eastern hills going down
And I haven’t heard from you in a while
Starting to forget the shape of your smile
Letting go takes time, fighting the will to hold on
But no I don’t miss you, I just miss being in love
And no I don’t long for you I just long to be in someone’s arms
Although I’m wishing for somebody new
Your heart’s the last that I gave mine to
So on these long winter nights oh it’s you I can’t help thinking of
This morning I woke with the moon
Rising outside the window to my room
And I thought of how I used to tease you for thinking too hard
Yeah you drove me wild, you drove me crazy
But even at the end of our very worst days we’d
Laugh til we cried, and wrapped up by your side I’d forget how we started
But no I don’t miss you, I just miss being in love
And no I don’t long for you I just long to be in someone’s arms
Although I’m wishing for somebody new
Your heart’s the last that I gave mine to
So on these long winter nights oh it’s you I can’t help thinking of
I don’t need to know how you’re doing I just hope that you’re doing well
Don’t want to think bout how we ended it would’ve someday anyhow
But tonight I’m a long way from home
You’ll forgive my thoughts for roaming
But no I don’t miss you, I just miss being in love
And no I don’t long for you I just long to be in someone’s arms
Although I’m wishing for somebody new
Your heart’s the last that I gave mine to
So on these long winter nights oh it’s you I can’t help thinking of

Callin' Out My Name

I've been sleeping in the shadow
of this green green mountain range
Lost my way back to the sunlight
when the winter turned to rain
For I have loved, and I have lost oh
thought my own heart was to blame
But there you were, when I least expected
There you were, callin out my name
You heard the chords that I was strummin
and you learned to sing my songs
Saw the road that I was walkin
said it's where you long to roam
And though these miles stretch between us
you're thinkin of me just the same
Oh there you were, when I least expected
There you were, callin out my name
Now I don't know what's round the corner
flowin down this riverbend
And I don't know my dear lover
if I'll see your smile again
But for those few nights in your arms
oh my heart's forever changed
For there you were, when I least expected
There you were, callin out my name

If I'm Gonna Love You

Take it from me babe
Oh I’ve seen it from the start
Knowing you is so easy
Like knowing my own heart
Don’t worry where I'm goin
Just ask me where I’m bound
Right back to your arms
To the truest home I’ve found - knowin
If I'm gonna love you, I’ll love you always
If I'm gonna hold you, I’ll never let go
Steady as a sunrise, turning each new day
If I’m gonna love you, I’ll love you always
Take it from me darlin
For I’ve traveled all round this world
I ain’t seen nothin yet
As lovely as your smile girl
And how the road gets lonely
Longing for a warm embrace
Oh I’ve wanted you only
Since the day I saw your face
And if I'm gonna love you, I’ll love you always
If I'm gonna hold you, I’ll never let go
Steady as a sunrise, turning each new day
If I’m gonna love you, I’ll love you always
Take it from me my love
Even if I'm miles away
You’re the one I’m dreamin of
As the last light fades
For I’ve been wishing on moonlight
And I’ve been waiting my whole damn life
To feel I'm where I'm meant to be
Now I know it’s by your side
And if I'm gonna love you, I’ll love you always
If I'm gonna hold you, I’ll never let go
Steady as a sunrise, turning each new day
If I’m gonna love you, I’ll love you always

Beside You

I met you on a summer night, it was a hot July
And there was mud on your boots, from workin under the sky
I told you love don’t come easy to me darlin
But when it’s right, I know it’s worth the ride
Oh lord tell me what I gotta do to hold on to one as lovely as you
I’d chase the stars and moon around this world no other will do
For what it’s worth, you have my heart all it’s joy and hurt
You have my hands baby I’m all yours
And i wanna dance every corner of this earth
Beside you
In a mind like mine, the thoughts get tangled a lot of the time
But you kiss my cheeks til I close my eyes
And finally understand that home isn’t always where you land
It could be a crooked smile, a gentle heart and your steady hands
Oh lord tell me what I gotta do to hold on to one as lovely as you
I’d chase the stars and moon around this world no other will do
For what it’s worth, you have my heart all it’s joy and hurt
You have my hands baby I’m all yours
And i wanna dance every corner of this earth
Beside you
I’m a wandering soul, can’t stay in place for long
You’ve known it all along, and still you didn’t run
There’s no one to tell us what to do or where to go
Close your eyes put a finger to the map, the road is wide
And we’ll make it our own, singin
Lord tell me what I gotta do to hold on to one as lovely as you
I’d chase the stars and moon around this world no other will do
For what it’s worth, you have my heart all it’s joy and hurt
You have my hands baby I’m all yours
And i wanna dance every corner of this earth
Beside you

I've got 1000 miles left to go, watchin the mountains in my rearview window
Driving east, bound for a town I've never known before
I've got 1000 miles left to go, chasin the sun over desert and snow
Driving East, from Washington to Colorado
And there's so many songs about the open road
Oh the hours spent watching the miles unfold
Maybe they're mine, maybe they're yours
Same highway, different chords
I've got 500 miles left to go, watchin the river in my rearview window
Driving south, I haven't seen another soul for hours now
I've got 500 miles left to go, American Beauty on the stereo
Singin loud, Oh what a long strange trip we're on
And there's so many songs about the open road
Oh the hours spent watching the miles unfold
Maybe they're mine, maybe they're yours
Same highway, different chords
I've got 20 miles left to go, watchin the canyon in my rearview window
Winding down, towards the days I've been dreaming of
20 miles left to go, the sun's setting low, how long til these streets feel like home and hold me close
Washington to Colorado
And there's so many songs about the open road
Oh the hours spent watching the miles unfold
Maybe they're mine, maybe they're yours
Same highway, different chords
