Track Name: Somebody Told Me
Somebody told me
I should worry ‘bout my man
Tell me darling, am I just a fool
To believe that you are still mine

Somebody told me
I can’t thrust you from now on
Tell me Darling, is our love tainted
Did you make of me a broken soul

Somedody told me
That you can be a damn good liar
Did’nt even cross my mind
Those lonely nights, I longed for you

I must have been blind
Not to see what everybody seems to know
Tell me Darling, the dirty little secret
You’ve been hiding from me

Now maybe this is just a bad dream
And I’m gonna wake up soon
And everything is gonna be alright
You gonna tell me This ain’t true

Somebody told me
I should worry ‘bout my man
Tell me Darling, Is our love tainted
Did you make of me a broken soul
Track Name: Goodbye Cheri
Goodbye Cheri

Well, I’m been tryin’ to please you
Every way a girl can
Cooking your mama’s recipies
And cleaning out your mess
Lovin’you, dressin’fine
Always lookin’ the best I can
Seems to me whatever I do
You’re never satisfied

Hanging out with your friends
Drinking beer and flirtin’
I think I’ been kind of stupid
So wait here all alone
Standin’ by that phone
Pretending that you would call
Seems to me whatever I do
You’re never satisfied

Chorus:
Goodbye Cheri
Already packed my bags
Someday you’ll realize
You gotta treat your woman right
Goodbye Cheri
I’m changing my ways
Finally walk out the door
And never look back again

From now on when you go home
To cold sheets and lonely nights
I know you gonna miss me
But Honey I don’t care
Cause I’ve been tryin’ to please you
But nothing ever moves you
Seems to me whatever I do
You’re never satisfied

Chorus (bis):
So… Goodbye Cheri
Already packed my bags
Someday you’ll realize
You gotta treat your woman right
Goodbye Cheri
I’m changing my ways
Finally walk out the door
And never look back again
Track Name: Coat of Many Colors
Back through the years
I go wonderin once again
Back to the seasons of my youth
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags to use
There were rags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin every piece with love
She made my coat of many colors
That I was so proud of
As she sewed, she told a story

Chorus:
My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

So with patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried off to school
Just to find the others laughing
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

And oh I couldnt understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My momma sewed in every stitch
And I told em all the story
Momma told me while she sewed
And how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes
Chorus…
Track Name: Wild Flame
Let me see what’s in your head
Let me see what’s in your mind
Knock knock, let me in, let me in
Show me all of your heart
I got nothing of a clairvoyant
All I can do is guess
But you’re so far away
Impossible to reach you there
And I’m a…

Chorus:
Wild flame
Nothing ‘s gonna change
The way I feel, the way I feel
You’re my mission you’re my prayer
I will never let you go
You’re my Baby
Riding through the wind

Understand I need you so bad
And, Darling, I want you right now
Got this fire burning my soul
This fire wont go away now
No reason to quit
Evan if you strike me like thunder

Wild flame
Nothing ‘s gonna stop
The way I feel, the way I feel
You’re my mission you’re my prayer
I will never let you go
You’re my Baby
Riding through the wind

Let me see what’s in your head
Let me see what’s in your mind
Knock knock, let me in, let me in
Show me all of your heart


Instr.

Chorus:…
Track Name: Here You Come
Just when I thought life was letting me down
Pourin’ rain all over my heart
Just when I thought I was left alone to cry
Every night
Just when I thought life was kicking me out
Well, the sun is shining again
Walking down the road
Smiling at me
Just when I thought life was done
Here you come
Ou,ou ou,ou
Here you come

I was ready to throw away love
Such a beautiful thing
Now I know how wrong I was
To block my mind and close my door
Well I believe
I believe the sun is shining all over my soul
Walking down the road
Smiling at me
Just when I thought life was done
Here you come

Ou,ou ou,ou
Here you come

Instr.

Ou,ou,ou, ou,
Here you come (bis)
Track Name: Secret Garden
I can’t say I’ve been a good girl
And I’ve done things that I regret now
But Lord knows I try the best I can
It’s not easy to be true
To what you are, to what you need
To what you feel inside

Chorus:
Everybody hides in a secret garden
Where a warm river flows and
All your dreams come alive,
Everybody thinks they’ll never get hurt there
But the pain always finds a way
To your heart

All those words you just don’t wanna say
All those words you think don’t mean a thing
Well they stay inside
And they start to grow into something
That you can’t control
Gotta say what you want, what you need
What you feel inside

Chorus…
Track Name: Ocean of Tears
My heart
Has been so lonely
Every day I’ve been longing for you
I wait
Sitting by my window
Praying that you will knock on my door

Crying
An ocean of tears
Wondering if you feel the same

All night
I see your sweet face
Shining in the dark, smiling at me

Instr………..

Crying
An ocean of tears
Wondering if you feel the same

Over
You said it’s over
Leaving behind my true hurting heart
Track Name: Play Some Rock'n Roll
We all know that life aint that easy
Gotta keep your job and please everybody
Working hard to pay the bills
Goin’ home to clean the house
It’s enough to drive anybody crasy

So you wake up in the morning feelin’ low
You don’t know why but you wanna scream
You got a million things
Spinnin’ round in your head
Wonderin’ how you’ll get through the day

Maybe we cant change the way we feel
Gotta learn to stop
When the pressure’s high
All you need’is a place to hide
All you need ‘s a time to fly
Do something that will set you free

Some people, they start runnin’
Helps them to bring the steam down
Some people they like cookin’
Every day a new recipie
Some folks, well they drive their car
As if they were on a race track
Me all I gotta do is… Play some Rock’n Roll

Instr.

Maybe we cant change the way we feel
Gotta learn to stop
When the pressure’s high
All you need’s a place to hide
All you need ‘s a time to fly
Do something that will set you free

Some folks, well they go see the doctor
To get a little pill
Some people they like drinkin’
Makes them laugh for a while
Play cards go to the movies
Or travel down south
Me all I gotta do is…Play some Rock’n Roll
Track Name: Chanson pour mon pere
Quand je me lève le matin
J’ai toujours l’impression que tu seras là
Pour me serrer dans tes bras
Et c’est dur de savoir que je ne verrai plus jamais
Ton tendre regard

Quand les enfants vont à l’école
Je fixe la fenêtre, je te vois toujours
Nous guider dans nos petits pas
Et c’est dur de savoir que ça n’arrivera plus
De se parler le cœur dans la voix

Refrain :
Je m’accroche à l’image de toi quelque part
Transparent de lumière et de rire
Mais je ne suis pas brave ni bien solide
Car ce n’est pas beaucoup pour ceux qui restent

Ton visage se perd dans le temps
Car les jours s’écoulent malgré nous
Et lentement, toi tu t’en vas
Moi je maudis le ciel car je n’y peux rien
Et la vie, et la vie va son cours

Je m’accroche à l’image de toi quelque part
Transparent de lumière et de rire
Mais je ne suis pas brave ni bien solide
Car ce n’est pas beaucoup pour ceux qui restent

Instr.
Non, je ne suis pas brave ni bien solide
Car ce n’est pas beaucoup pour ceux qui restent
Track Name: We Aint Never Gonna Be
I dont know why you knock on my door
Every day and every night
Begging on your knees, tears in your eyes
Wont help you Darling
I won’t change my mind

Instr.

I don’t know why you keep on dreamin
I’ll ever be your sweet lovin’ pie
What can I do to make you stop now
You got to move on
I won’t change my mind

You could stand in the rain for a thousand years
Making promises
Lying your way to my heart
I don’t know why you cant hear me
When I say We
Aint never gonna be

Instr.

I don’t know how I got you going
Make you lose your mind, act like a fool
Beggin’ on my knees now
Come back to reason
You got to move on
I won’t change my mind

You can try a million ways to sweep my feet away
With that sweet talkin’ and
Showin’ off your diamond rings
I don’t know why, you cant hear me
When I say We
Aint never gonna be


I don’t know why, you cant hear me
When I say We
Aint never gonna be
Track Name: I Have Reason To Believe
I have reason to believe
That your heart has been taken
And that I don’t belong here anymore
Would be useless to go on
If you’ve turned your back on me
Is it true that you found somebody new

Better times and sweet memories keep rollin’ in my head
All those words and the tenderness we shared
After all we’ve been through, I can’t believe that you
Could have thrown away our love so easily

First I’ll cry all through the night
And then I’ll dry up all my tears
‘Cause I’m strong enough to heal the pain

I have reason to believe
That your heart has been taken
Is it true that you found somebody new

Instr.

First I’ll cry all through the night
And then I’ll dry up all my tears
‘Cause I’m strong enough to heal the pain


I have reason to believe
That your heart has been taken
And that I don’t belong here anymore
Now time is the only friend
That I can still hold on to
To relieve me
From my memories of you.
Track Name: Peace In My Soul
Can’t you hear
My heart in pounding
Everytime
You stand by me

You make me shine
You make me whole
Everytime you touch me

When you’re away
I feel so helpless
So please Darling
Stay with me tonight
And tell me one more time

Say you love me
And you always will
So I can find
Peace in my soul

Instr.

When you’re away
I feel so helpless
So please Darling
Stay with me tonight
And tell me one more time

Say you love me
And you always will
So I can find
Peace in my soul
