I Can't Win For Losin' You
(Robert Byrne/Rick Bowles)
Hey, how've you been? Good to see you again
Gee, it's been a long time
How's that new man, Mama & Dan
Since I told you goodbye?
Now I'm still the same, still raisin' Cain
Nobody's worried 'bout me
I come & I go, just as I please
Since I set myself free
CHORUS:
But I can't win for losin' you
I just can't get over you
Bein' footloose & fancy free
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
& the grass ain't no greener
Here on the other side
I might win a heart or 2
But I can't win for losin' you
Well I'm on my way, there's so much to say
Lord knows that I've had my time
Girl, you can bet I'll never forget
When you used to be mine
(repeat chorus & fade)
Love Don't Care (Whose Heart It Breaks)
I'm a lonely rider
She's the sole survivor of this love affair
But she don't care
She's a real heartbreaker
& I can't find a taker, no, that can compare
'Cause she's so rare
She never let me hurt for love
She gave me all she had
But that was only long enough
To go from good to bad
CHORUS:
Oh but love don't care whose heart it breaks
It don't care who gets blown away
If it all falls through as a bad mistake
Love don't care whose heart it breaks
I can still remember
Every time I see her, I go back in time
& lose my mind
Yeah I'm a good pretender
I just can't believe her heart's no longer mine
It's so unkind
She never let me hurt for love
She gave me all she had
But that was only long enough
To go from good to bad
(chorus)
No, love don't care whose heart it breaks
(repeat & fade):
(Love don't care)
Nobody Falls Like A Fool
(Peter McCann/Mark Wright)
A heart isn't blind
It just sees what it wants to see
I hope yours is lookin' at mine
The way that you're lookin' at me
Well I've been around
I've taken chances before
But this time I'm hopin' for more
You're makin' it easy
CHORUS:
Nobody falls like a fool
Nobody loves like a believe
After so many dreams have fallen through
It's time that one came true
Nobody falls like a fool
Nobody loves like a believer
& I'm fallin' 'cause I believe in you
I know you're afraid
Of the words we have spoken
There's been so many promises made
& so many broken
Oh but please don't hold back
I've already opened the door
& this time I'm hopin' for more
You're makin' it easy
(repeat chorus & fade)
Like a young & courageous fool
Ready to take on the night
You came dressed to kill all of the boys
& it looks like you've done enough right
You say that love is your only rule
It kinda comes from the heart
When it all comes down to what lovers do
You fall in love & just fall apart
CHORUS:
But that's the chance you take with a lonely heart
That's the price you pay with a lonely heart
That's the game you play when there's nothin' to lose
& I could never refuse the chance of lovin' you
You're beginning to look like you're feelin' content
Just for one night of romance
If it wasn't for love, you'd still be my friend
& still put my heart in your hands
(chorus x2)
(repeat title & fade)
You were just another pretty face in the crowd
I was just hangin' out
I wasn't ready for love when I looked in your eyes
You took me by surprise
You weren't supposed to say that you loved me
You were just gonna stay for the night
I never held a hand that could touch me
& leave me with stars in my eyes
CHORUS:
Oh angel in disguise
You're just an angel in disguise
(instrumental)
Almost made it too easy for me to believe
That love could happen to me
But you're not afraid to show me how much you care
& prove your heart is there
You weren't supposed to say that you loved me
You were just gonna spend the night
I never held a hand that could touch me
& leave me with stars in my eyes
(chorus x2)
You're on my mind, I'm in the dark
You're takin' your time, I'm fallin' apart
CHORUS:
Girl, you hold my mind in your hands & you know it
I'll get it right if you'll give me the chance
To come closer
I'll give you my heart if that's what you're after
I'll give you my love, & that's all that matters
Think it over
Yeah that's all right with me
If you wanna play hard to please
Don't make it easy for me
Down on my knees, take a look at me
I'm easy to please; why can't you be?
(chorus)
Girl, that's all right with me
If you wanna play hard to please
Don't make it easy for me
You've never cheated, you've never lied
You've never had feelin's that you've had to hide
But she's got you thinkin' of somethin' so different tonight
It's too late to worry what's right or what's wrong
& you're a little too crazy to leave it alone
When you're lookin' at somethin' that's too good to push it aside
Boy, she's got your head in the clouds
& your heart in a bind
How come you're feelin' so proud
When your love's on the line?
You still think your 1st love's the best in your life
When you know you should hurry, but you can't say goodbye
& you know you can't go back & feel like you're where you belong
Now the sweet taste of freedom is hard to control
When the touch of a woman's so tender to hold
She won't even let you remember how long you've been gone
(x2):
Boy, you've got your head in the clouds
& your heart in a bind
So how come you're feelin' so proud
When your love's on the line?
