Lonely One


He ain’t happy,
He’s so lonely,
He can’t find no one to love,
That’s what happens when you live
A life of prestige.
Nothing can fill the space in his heart,
Not even money.

Chorus:
He is the lonely one,
All alone;
Sadness fills him,
But heaven up above,
Won’t let him be lonely long,
Won’t let depression consume him.
Won’t be lonely no more.

He stands outside the flower shop,
And watches the girl
Behind the countertop.
He watches as she arranges
Roses and carnations,
For others’ loved ones.
He wants to be her one.

Chorus

He wants to give
The pretty girl who doesn’t
Even know his name,
A pretty flower
Pretty just like her face;
And tell her that he wants
To be by her side.

Chorus

Heaven will answer
The lonely one’s prayers,
Fill up the empty space
That has haunted him
For far too long.
He’s going to get to be with her,
He’s going to get to share all his love.

Chorus

Can I Forgive You?


Hello stranger,
Nice to know you,
Welcome back,
It’s been a long time
Since I’ve seen you.

Chorus:
Been five years
Since we had our fight,
Now you’re coming back
Wanting to apologize…
Can I forgive you?

It’s hard to talk to you,
I don’t know what to say,
I’ve been lost without you
But I can’t tell you
What if you walk away?

Chorus

If I forgive you,
It’ll be because I still love you.
I still care for you.
However, trust is in the question
I’m not sure where we stand.

Chorus

Should I forgive you?

Have You


Do you remember me?
I sure remember you.
I remember those eyes,
I remember that face,
I remember those hands
That held onto me so tight.

My heart and soul aches
As I remember how we once loved,
Will you come back into my life,
Carry me from the ashes like
A tainted savior raising me from the grave
In which I buried my heart.

Chorus:
In the dark we hide, our denial
That we ever loved at all
Inside I’m crying
Because I know I’ll never have you
Like I did once before.

But maybe we can have another chance,
I pray that chances are something
That can be granted more than once.
Is there still a piece of me inside of you
That you still hold onto just like your arms
Once held me close to your chest?

Come back into my life and stay there
Be the soul mate I once believed you were.
I’ll bite the forbidden fruit
If that will mean that I can have you
No need for seduction
All we need is the truth.

Chorus

Unfortunately for me,
I don’t believe that you will give me what I need
The redemption, the peace
Because you were always stuck in your ways
A crazy mustang that no woman could tame for long,
But I’m on my bended knees hoping.

I’m hoping that you’ve changed
But that the person I once adored
Is still there inside, too.
Can you reach out to me?
Let your heart remember the love we shared,
You’re existence keeps this hope alive.

Chorus

Like I did once before.

Tennessee Ticket


Here some memories do reside
Separate from the past I wish to hide
I’m riding this train
To follow the path to a Southern life
Fight against my Yankee past.

Chorus:
It’s a new start for me,
Now I get hit retry
Instead of constant repeat.
This Tennessee ticket
Is my ticket to new love, new life
Rebirth—it’s my turn to breathe.

I’m escaping to a new life
Grasping for the ladder rung;
Climb out of the dark hole
That I’ve been swimming in.
Give me that fresh air,
Take me to Music Drive.

Chorus

I’m leaving the life I had behind me
My family still loves me,
Know their baby girl has to do this
It’s time for a change
But a piece of my heart will always follow—
My faith will keep me strong.

Chorus

It’s a new start for me,
Now I get to hit retry,
Time to edit my everything,
No more constant repeat.
This Tennessee ticket
Is my ticket to new love, new life.
Yeah, this Tennessee ticket
Is my ticket to new love and new life.

I Want to Find Love


People think I’m crazy,
Because I’m holding out for a real relationship,
But I want to find love,
I want to find love;
And there’s no way in hell,
I’m going to give up now.

I’m not like other girls,
Who think that having some flings is living better,
I just want to find love,
I want to find love;
I’m not living for lust,
I’ll leave all those men out in the dust.

Chorus:
Find me love, find me love
Leave everyone in the dust
Lust isn’t for me
I need to be loved.

Some people think that
There’s so many fish in the sea
I just want to find love,
I want to find love
So I am going to see,
The one that’s perfect for me.

I’m not giving up just yet,
I’m going to keep going until I find him.
I just want to find love,
I want to find love
My perfect match is out there,
I know it and I’m not going to find him waiting here.

Chorus
