First Draft Lyrics

The Studio
The winter brings in the cold and snow, I’m here with you and I don’t want to go.
But it’s back to work and back on the road, It could be months before I get back home

(chorus)
Time to get to the studio and write some new songs
Not leaving for good, but right now it’s where I belong
I’ll get back when I can, to make right what’s wrong

It gets lonely in the bus, driving all night, I close my eyes and see your smile so bright
I want to get home and hold you tight, But my music calls, I get on stage under the lights

(chorus)
Time to get to the studio and write some new songs
Not leaving for good, right now it’s where I belong
I’ll get back when I can, to make right what’s wrong

The fans kept us on the stage tonight, real late, It was an awesome show, the new songs went great
Now it’s time for a rest, two day trip to the next state, I’ll call in the morning, I hope you don’t mind the wait

(chorus)
Time to get to the studio and write some new songs
Not leaving for good, right now it’s where I belong
I’ll get back when I can, to make right what’s wrong

All You Stole
Why is it so hard breaking someone’s heart, even if they hurt you first?
I just can’t seem to say the words that I know will make your world burst.
The look on your face and the tears in your eyes, make it harder to say good-bye
But I can’t stay and pretend I still feel the same way, I can’t stay and live this lie.

(chorus)
Even though I know it’s time to leave, I really did want to believe
That our love could survive anything, but my heart has stopped trying
I find myself wanting to go, I stood by you so long, you didn’t know
I wanted us and you wanted control, but my inner strength was all you stole

There’s nothing in the world I wanted more, than to end my days with you
But when things went wrong along the way, you left and my loneliness grew
I’ve been through the emotional wheel and I’m back to knowing what I have to say
I need to walk with my heart and head high and have some hope each new day

(chorus)
Even though I know it’s time to leave, I really did want to believe
That our love could survive anything, but my heart has stopped trying
I find myself wanting to go, I stood by you so long, you didn’t know
I wanted us and you wanted control, but my inner strength was all you stole

Soul mates
When I first saw you I had to turn and look again, You were so good looking, really got my attention
You noticed me too and we decided to dance, Looking in your eyes, I felt like I was in a trance
I never thought I’d fall as hard as I did for you, Your smile grabbed a hold of me, nothing I could do

(chorus)
In the time we spent together, it made me realize
Our souls had much in common, I saw it in your eyes
We’d both been hurt before, way deep down inside
But we always got back up and we always survived
We had the same soul, but we’re not soul mates, we learned in time

When it was just you and me, you made me feel the best, You always said the sweetest things, better than the rest
You only looked at me, like the world had disappeared, But our worlds were very different, that’s what I feared
How could I not love you and I believe you loved me, too, It just wasn’t meant to be and I think we both knew

(chorus)
In the time we spent together, it made me realize
Our souls had much in common, I saw it in your eyes
We’d both been hurt before, way deep down inside
But we always got back up and we always survived
We had the same soul, but we’re not soul mates, we learned in time

We both moved on and met another, but you’ll always be a friend, I still get that funny feeling when I think about our weekends
I needed what you gave me, when you made me feel wonderful, You needed me to show you that you really are incredible
I could’ve stayed in your arms forever, but knew it couldn’t be, Our souls needed the other, and now we can each be free

(chorus)
In the time we spent together, it made me realize
Our souls had much in common, I saw it in your eyes
We’d both been hurt before, way deep down inside
But we always got back up and we always survived
We had the same soul, but we’re not soul mates, we learned in time

Ladies night out
They walked into the bar not knowing what’s in store
These ladies needed a drink and spin around the floor
Cowboys filled the room all in Wrangers and boots
The girls just smiled at each other, they’re all so damn cute

(chorus)
Take a look around there’s some good looking men out tonight
These are gentlemen here there won’t be any bar fight
Just pick a guy, take him by the hand and follow the dance lights
Make it a slow song so you can get up close and hold on real tight

It’s ladies night out and they are ready for a spin
Grab a beer, a fine cowboy and do some two steppin’
No need to get names, it’s a night of pure fun
Some dancin’ and some drinkin until the mornin’ has come

(chorus)
Take a look around there’s some good looking men out tonight
These are gentlemen here there won’t be any bar fight
Just pick a guy, take him by the hand and follow the dance lights
Make it a slow song so you can get up close and hold on real tight
