Going Out Like That
It's been awhile since she put that red dress on
and slip into those high heels
She's got a couple of guys blowing up her phone
and she loves the way that feels
You'd never know she was going through a break up
There ain't a single tear messing up her make up
He thought she'd be sitting home crying,
but she ain't goin' out like that.
She's had enough of feeling like dying,
she ain't goin' out like that.
Everybody, here comes the life of the party, yeah, she is.
He might have left her brokenhearted,
but she ain't goin' goin out like that.
She's got her hands up dancin' like the floors on fire.
Yeah she's the hottest thing in here.
Guess she finally got tired of being sick and tired.
Now she's lookin like she don't care.
She was hurting, well she must've forgot.
She's smiling while she's throwing back shots.
He thought she'd be sitting home crying,
but she ain't goin' out like that.
She's had enough of feeling like dying,
she ain't goin' out like that.
Everybody, here comes the life of the party, yeah, she is.
He might have left her brokenhearted,
but she ain't goin' goin out like that.
He thought she'd be sitting home crying,
but she ain't goin' out like that.
She's had enough of feeling like dying,
she ain't goin' out like that.
Everybody, here comes the life of the party, yeah, she is.
He might have left her brokenhearted,
but she ain't goin' goin out like that.
Everybody, here comes the life of the party
Everybody, here comes the life of the party, yeah, she is.
Enough
He tells me he's working late
He tells me that he can't stay too long
So I turn the lights off
I fall asleep before he's home
Tomorrow I'll wake up alone
Feeling that familiar low
My heart's screaming, no
But everytime I think I've had enough
He comes around and wraps me up in love
And I wind up giving in
Cause he gives me just enough
To make me think that
There's still hope for us
In the end it's only me
Wishing I could be
Wishing I still was
Enough
He think it's best to tell me lies
He don't even try to hide, the truth
So he won't hurt me
He made a promise he can't keep
He can't promise anything
The half of him he gives to me
Will never be enough
But everytime I think I've had enough
He comes around and wraps me up in love
And I wind up giving in
Cause he gives me just enough
To make me think that
There's still hope for us
In the end it's only me
Wishing I could be
Wishing I still was
Enough to make him wanna stay
Enough to make him walk away
I just wanna hear him say I was
Enough
To make me think that
There's still hope for us
But in the end it's only me
Wishing I could be
Wishing I still was
Enough
I know I'll never be
Oh, I know I never was
Enough, Enough
Oh I'm wishing I could be
No I'll never be
Oh, Enough
Never was, Enough
Never be
She Got Drunk Last Night
She was flagging down the waiter
She was feeling 'bout as faded as the flowers from that wallpaper
Nobody'd even asked for her ID when she walked in there
Don't know how long she'd been there
She was fixing up her hair and fumbling though her purse
She was tired of feeling lonely
She was tired of feeling old
She was hating the idea of going home alone
So she got drunk last night
Drunk enough to call
That number in her phone that she would never call
Without the alcohol
But she needed an excuse
To let herself get used
And so that's why
She got drunk the way she'd never
The way she hadn't in forever
But she needed to feel better, and wanted, and beautiful
Even if he didn't love her
And it had been a long time over
She had to make one more mistake
And she couldn't do that sober
So she got drunk last night
Drunk enough to call
That number in her phone that she would never call
Without the alcohol
But she needed an excuse
To let herself get used
And so that's why
Oh, she got drunk last night
Yeah she needed an excuse
To let herself get used
And so that's why
She got drunk last night
She got drunk last night
Living Ain't Killed Me Yet
Life will throw you a curve ball
Back against a brick wall
Push you right up to the edge
It'll hit you from your blind side
Kick you in the backside
Barely even break a sweat
It's a roll with the punches
Funny little life we lead
Oh, but I'm in it for the long haul
Win, lose or draw, y'all
It won't get the best of me
Cause I been down to the wire
With my feet to the fire
But this livin' ain't killed me yet
Well I been tested and tried
But I still got some fight
No, this livin' ain't killed me,
Livin' ain't killed me yet
I won't let a couple mistakes
Wrong turns that I've made
Be a noose around my neck
Hurt will hurt if you let it
Unless you just forget it
Shake it off, and say what's next
It's an up down, spin around
crazy kinda world we're in, oh yeah
But I'm in it for the long haul, win, lose or draw
Might fall, but I'll get up again
Cause I been down to the wire
With my feet to the wire
But this livin' ain't killed me yet
Well I been tested and tried
But I still got some fight
No, this livin' ain't killed me,
Livin' ain't killed me yet
Oh, I'm in it for the long haul
Win, lose or draw
As long as I've got air to breathe
Ah, it won't get the best of me!
Cause I been down to the wire
With my feet to the fire
But this livin' ain't killed me yet
I been tested and tried
But I still got some fight
No, this livin' ain't killed me,
Livin' ain't killed me,
livin' ain't killed me oh oh oh yet
Nawww yet.
That's When I Knew
It wasn't when you walked out, wasn't when you said goodbye
It wasn't when I sat down and had myself a real good cry
Oh, it wasn't when I tore your picture from the frame
Threw it in the fire and sent it up in flames
I still felt the same
Oh, but then tonight, I met someone
We went out and we had fun
He made me laugh, we danced all night
And I didn't see your face when I was looking in his eyes
That's when I knew
I was over you
I was staying busy, trying to keep you off my mind
Baby, but your memory, it put up a real good fight
Oh, I went out with friends to have a drink or two
They tried to cheer me up, there was nothing they could do
I was missing you
But then tonight, there with him
It felt so good to feel good again
He took my hand and I didn't mind
And I didn't try to stop him when he kissed me goodnight
That's when I knew
I was over
Crying in my pillow
Praying that you'd come home
Waiting for the phone to ring
Wondering where it went wrong
Wishing I could move on
Thought I'd never feel this way
I thought I'd never see this day
Oh, but then tonight, I met someone
We went out and we had fun
He made me laugh and we danced all night
And I didn't see your face cause I was looking in his eyes
That's when I knew
I was over you
I was over you
I'll Go On
You were everything and that's what I gave you
But you don't love me and I don't hate you
Or maybe I did, but just for a minute
Cause you wanted me to live my life without you in it
But I forgave you
Oh, I hope you know it's true
And I don't blame you
For not feeling like I do
I'm pretty sure it's not the end of the world tonight
Even though down deep in my soul it feels like it might
I'm pretty sure I'll wake up tomorrow still breaking inside
And I'll go on missing you
I'll go on wanting you
I'll go on with or without you
I'll go on
I'll carry what's left of us with me always
Remember last summer, those were the good days
I wouldn't trade 'em not to hurt now
If I could've told myself not to love you so
I'd still love you
Oh, I hope you know it's true
But letting go of you
Is so much harder to do
I'm pretty sure it's not the end of the world tonight
Even though down deep in my soul it feels like it might
I'm pretty sure I'll wake up tomorrow still breaking inside
And I'll go on missing you
I'll go on loving you
I'll go on with or without you
I'll go on
I'll go on
Ooh, I'll go on
So go on, go on
Until They Don't Love You
Ain't one the loneliest number
It takes two to make it right
Just three little words I shoulda told ya
Before you left last night
Sometimes you don't love somebody until they don't love you
Sometimes you don't love somebody until they don't love you
Oh you're lookin so good with your bags packed
On the front steps waitin on a yellow cab
And my heart keeps screaming 'come back, come back, come back'
Well I was "a-okay" taking you for granted
Shoulda make a beeline for your door
If you could see all the broken pieces
You would redeem my heart for sure
Sometimes you don't love somebody until they don't love you
Sometimes you don't love somebody until they don't love you
Oh you're lookin so good with your bags packed
On the front steps waitin on a yellow cab
And my heart keeps screaming 'come back, come back, come back'
Don't pay attention to your heart until it's bleeding
Don't know what you have until you can't keep it
Don't know what you want till you need it
Don't know that it's love until it's leavin'
Oh, when you left I shoulda come runnin
You were right about everything
I was up to no good and you knew it
And now I'm down here on my knees
Sometimes you don't love somebody until they don't love you
Sometimes you don't love somebody until they don't love you
Oh you're lookin so good with your bags packed
On the front steps waitin on a yellow cab
And my heart keeps screaming 'come back, come back, come back'
It's a little too late baby I know
That I treated your heart like a yoyo
Give me one more chance baby don't go, don't go, don't go
No
Promise Me Love
So promise me something, right here and now
You'll never lose me in a sea of a faceless crowd
Scream it from mountains, oh, love me out loud
In quiet whispers you'll remind me what you found
And I swear not to give up on you
I swear that I'll always be your truth
I swear to bring you light in the darkest nights
Come, we will always be loved
It's scary, it's freeing, it's twirling in meaning
It's hiding from all that you can and can't see
Romance and love, romance and love
Two roads approaching, which way do we turn?
Doesn't much matter cause we've lived and let go and we've learned
Without the map, it's just you and me
Leading each other in a world that'll always believe
So I swear not to give up on you
I swear that I'll always be your truth
I swear to bring you light in the darkest nights
Come, we will always be loved
It's scary, it's freeing, it's twirling in meaning
It's hiding from all that you can and can't see
Romance and love, romance, oh
Promise me, promise me love
It's scary, it's freeing, it's twirling in meaning
It's hiding from all that you can and can't see
Romance and love, romance, oh
Promise me, promise me love
Oh, promise me love
Promise me love, love, love
Just Like Them Horses
She held him close, then she kissed his face
He said it just has to be this way
Yours is the heart I'll always keep
I'm not gone even if I leave
If you love me, don't you be afraid
To look in my eyes and open up the gate
Then watch me ride beneath a newborn sun
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
He said, Rocky Mountain is calling me
Gonna take a walk up where I can sing
Turn and face that western wind
Oh, and I'll be home again
If you love me, don't you be afraid
To look in my eyes and open up the gate
Then watch me ride beneath a newborn sun
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
Oh, just like them horses
She held his hand, he took one last breath
Then she walked out to the front porch step
Stared at the sky, tears on her face
And she swore she could hear him say
If you love me, don't you be afraid
To look in my eyes and open up the gate
Then watch me ride beneath a newborn sun
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
When it's time to run
When it's time to run
Now it's time to run
Just like them horses, ooh
Just like them horses
Oh, now it's time to run...
Love Somebody
You're gonna hurt sometimes, leave you to be
By the side of the road with the dirt and debris
Your name in the dust on your face
And you can't shake it off
You're gonna learn some things you don't wanna learn
When the taste of the fruit leaves a bite and a burn
You're taking your heart and your phone
And you're turning them off
But still you're gonna love somebody
Don't you wanna love somebody?
You ain't alive 'til you love somebody
Everybody wants to love somebody
Don't say that you're done
Cause you're never done
Go on, go on, go on
And love somebody
You're gonna find someday the thicker the wall
The higher the fence, the harder the fall
When you're tryin' to sleep but you can't
Cause it keeps spinning 'round
You're gonna go somewhere that you've never thought
You'd ever go again, there's no way to stop
And there's no way to know that you're lost
Until you're finally found
That's why you're gonna love somebody
Don't you wanna love somebody?
You ain't alive 'til you love somebody
Everybody wants to love somebody
You can damn and doubt it
You can cry about it
But you can't live without it
That's why you gotta love somebody
Don't you wanna love somebody?
You ain't alive 'til you love somebody
Everybody wants to love somebody
Love Land
She wasn't wearing a wedding dress
In a Vegas wedding chapel
They were herding 'em in and out of there
Like they were cattle
Not exactly the fairytale that she had planned
But mama said, "Aren't you supposed to get married, girl
Before you bring a baby in this world?"
And all she could say was "yes ma'am"
She called her from that chapel
In Love Land
She said, "Mama, I really love this man"
Love Land
Seemed like a lifetime, driving from Vegas to Oklahoma
"If you're allowed a number of mistakes in life," she said
"Maybe I filled my quarter"
They called in a reception, saying you did the right thing
But they smiled, their broken smiles said
"Who needs to walk down the aisle?"
As she showed off her wedding ring
They walked away hand in hand
To Love Land
She said, "I really love this man"
Love Land
Amazing all the progress we've made
Since the days of Thomas Edison
Still only God gives life
In spite of modern medicine
The doctors' voices whispered
"We did all that we could do
But your baby wasn't strong enough
To make it the whole nine months"
And as their world broke in two
He said, "I'll carry you through
To Love Land"
She said, "For the longest time I've blamed myself
Thought I was paying for my mistakes"
But they tried again, now they're watching him
All three candles out
He's daddy's little man
She said, "Only God could've planned the steps I've taken
That led me to where I am
Love Land
Love, Love Land
Anywhere you hold my hand is Love Land
Ooh, Love Land"

Whatever Way It Hurts The Least
(Target Exclusive Track)
Whatever way it hurts the least
That's how we should try to leave
We got a few things wrong, let's get this right
Whatever tears don't stain our cheeks
Whatever words don't cut so deep
And we don't even have to say goodbye
You take your heart, and I'll take my heart
We'll start over
If it's gotta break, let's break it clean
You'll find another, I'll find another
Let's hurt each other
Whatever way it hurts the least
Whatever lie won't burn your tongue
Tell it now then I'll tell you one
And we'll pretend that this is for the best
This isn't working anymore
So I hope what you're looking for
Is behind whatever door you open next
You take your road, I'll take my road
We'll start over
You go west and I'll go east
You'll find another, I'll find another
Let's hurt each other
Whatever way it hurts the least
We can be friends or we can be strangers
Whatever way it hurts the least
Cuss me now or call me later
Whatever way it hurts the least
Whatever way it hurts the least
You take your heart, I'll take my heart
We'll start over
If it's gotta break, let's break it clean
You'll find another, I'll find another
Let's hurt each other
Whatever way it hurts the least
Whatever way it hurts the least
More Than Just Her Last Name
(Target Exclusive Track)
Pressed between the pages
There's a flower that remembers who she was
When she said "I do" she did
But these days, she wonders if she does
She wouldn't trade it but she misses life before she was a misses
In a studio apartment week to week
She left her diploma on a wall in Oklahoma
Naive enough to think that she could be
More than just her last name
The house, the car, the trust fund
More than just a Christmas party plus one
More than just a trophy walking on a treadmill
That mind of her own is barely in her head still
She never thought she'd change
More than just her last name
He promised her the moon
But no one told her what the moon was gonna cost
The slipper and the dress still fit
But somewhere in the story, she got lost
Sometimes the fairy tale it doesn't end so very well
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Everybody wants to be her, they look but they don't see her
When she became his wife she thought she'd found
More than just her last name
The house, the car, the trust fund
More than just a Christmas party plus one
More than just a trophy walking on a treadmill
That mind of her own is barely in her head still
She never thought she'd change
More than just her last name
Sometimes picture perfect is so perfect that it hurts
Getting what you want is both a blessing and a curse
Oh she don't wanna leave, she just wants to be worth
More than just her last name
Oh, more than just her last name
Oh, more than just her last name
