If I should stay Well I would only be in your way And so I’ll go, and yet I know I’ll think of you each step of the way
And I will always love you I will always love you
Bitter-sweet memories That’s all I’m taking with me Good-bye, please don’t cry ‘Cause we both know that I’m not What you need
But I will always love you I will always love you
And I hope life, will treat you kind And I hope that you have all That you ever dreamed of Oh I do wish you joy And I wish you happiness But above all this I wish you love I love you I will always love youI,
I will always, always love you I will always love you I will always love you I will always love you
How do I get through one night without you If I had to live without you What kinda life would that be Oh I, I need you in my arms, need you to hold You’re my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave Well, baby you would take away everything Good in my life And tell me now
How do I live without you? I want to know How do I breathe without you? If you ever go How do I ever, ever survive How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
Without you There’d be no sun in my sky There would be no love in my life There’d be no world left for me
And I, well baby, I don’t know what I would do I’d be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave Well, baby you would take away everything Real in my life And tell me now
How do I live without you I want to know How do I breathe without you If you ever go How do I ever, ever survive How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
Please tell me baby how do I go on
If you ever leave Well, baby you would take away everything Need you with me Baby don’t you know that you’re everything Good in my life
And tell me now How do I live without you I want to know How do I breathe without you If you ever go How do I ever, ever survive How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
How do I live without you? How do I live without you, baby? How do I live
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I’m begging of you please don’t take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please don’t take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare With flaming locks of auburn hair With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green Your smile is like a breath of spring Your voice is soft like summer rain And I cannot compete with you Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep And there’s nothing I can do to keep From crying when he calls your name Jolene
And I can easily understand How you could easily take my man But you don’t know what he means to me Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I’m begging of you please don’t take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please don’t take him just because you can
You could have your choice of men But I could never love again He’s the only one for me Jolene
I had to have this talk with you My happiness depends on you And whatever you decide to do Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene I’m begging of you please don’t take my man Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene Please don’t take him even though you can Jolene, Jolene
I know what she’s like She’s out of her mind And wraps herself around the truth She’ll jump on that flight and meet you that night And make you tear up the room
Yeah, she loves when everybody’s watching She knows the way her body moves She loves the way they all crawl back when she says That she loves nobody else but you
She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming) She’s on the loose (she’s coming) She’s coming for you She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming) She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming for you)
She’ll dance in the dark A real work of art Her eyes could burn down the room So get out while you can You don’t understand She doesn’t know how to lose
Yeah, she loves when everybody’s watching She knows the way her body moves She loves the way they all crawl back when she says That she loves nobody else but you
She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming) She’s on the loose (she’s coming) She’s coming for you She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming) She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming for you)
She’ll run with your mind and pull you in tight Then trade you in for something new I know what it’s like, I fell for it twice And now I’m just warning you
She loves when everybody’s watching She knows the way her body moves She loves the way they all crawl back when she says That she loves nobody else but you
She loves when everybody’s watching She knows the way her body moves She loves the way they all crawl back when she says That she loves nobody else but you
She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming) She’s on the loose (she’s coming) She’s coming for you She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming) She’s on the loose (she’s coming, she’s coming for you)

Lyrics
I don’t want to hear a love song I got on this airplane just to fly And I know there’s life below me But all that you can show me is the prairie and the sky
And I don’t want to hear a sad story Full of heartbreak and desire The last time I felt like this I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire
And I stood on the mountain In the night and I watched it burn I watched it burn, I watched it burn
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham If I thought I could see, I could see your face
Well, you really got me this time And the hardest part is knowing I’ll survive And I come to listen for the sound Of the trucks as they move down out on 95
And pretend that it’s the ocean Coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean Baby, do you know what I mean?
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham If I thought I could see, I could see your face If I thought I could see, I could see your face

I’m sitting here inside this stranger’s place And time is racing by I’ve been way out here for a month or more Tonight I’m wondering why You try to understand the things that I feel Maybe this time I’ll find a way to explain it There is a dream, deep inside my head And it may seem like it’s breaking the thread That holds me to you Still you have never wanted to change me But, darling, I know, though we’re far apart The signal is strong This helpless heart will always belong to you To you, only to you, no one but you This power takes me from the place I belong To where only the strong get through You got to keep on believing or you lose your way It slips right out of view Though there are days the light can flicker and fade Here in this place, tonight, a fire is burning
Found the truth beneath your lies And true love never has to hide (True love never has to hide) I’ll trade your broken wings for mine (Trade your broken wings for mine) I’ve seen your scars and kissed your crime (Seen your scars and kissed your crime)
So many people that I know, they just tryna touch ya Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again I’m gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
All night long Love, all night long Sweet love, all night long Sweet love, all night long All I wanna, ain’t no other We together, I remember Sweet love, all night long
Our love was stronger than your pride Beyond your darkness, I’m your light, oh If you get deep, you touch my mind (If you get deep, you touch my mind) Baptize your tears and dry your eyes (Baptize your tears and dry your eyes)
So many people I know that they just tryna touch ya Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again I’m gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
All night long Love, all night long Sweet love, all night long Sweet love, all night long All I wanna, ain’t no other We together, I remember Sweet love, all night long
They say true love’s the greatest weapon To win the war caused by pain (pain) But every diamond has imperfections But my love’s too pure to watch it chip away (chip a-, chip a-, chip away) Boy, nothing real can be threatened True love breathes salvation back into me With every tear came redemption And my torturer became my remedy
So many people I know that they just tryna touch ya Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again I’m gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
All night long Love, all night long Sweet love, all night long Sweet love, all night long All I wanna, ain’t no other We together, I remember Sweet love, all night long
