A candle burns in the Heart of the country The flame fades though I see to it sadly It takes me further away Than I have ever been I wait and the darkness comes I pray for my only one And I wonder if you ever Will see this land again We took this land And we brought it goodness It's taken everything And left only emptiness I am not broken Although I have the seeds in me I wait and the darkness comes I pray for my only one And I wonder if you ever Will see this land again I hide my face against the sun I hide my fear from everyone But I've had enough of secrets They're all lies we're scared to tell I just need someone to be with I just need to say you fell There's nothing out here But me and a whisper And now it's failing I won't even listen I watch the fall and it's Time that I was leaving too I wait and the darkness comes I pray for my only one And I wonder if you ever Will see this land again I wait and the darkness comes I pray for my only one And I wonder if you ever Will see this land again I wait and the darkness comes I pray for my only one And I wonder if you ever Will see this land again I wait and the darkness comes I pray for my only one And I wonder if you ever Will see this land again

Girl on the street, can't be more than fifteen Street is cold, but home was mean She works hard, but she don't charge much Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love He sits in his car outside a bar room door Thinks about a girl he doesn't know anymore Pulls on a bottle to work his courage up. Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Oh now, maybe you and me, we got somethin' And it gets us through the night. But when we're holding each other And there's only the silence We both wish it was somthing it isn't quite Sometimes I hear soft crying I reach out to you Oh, I feel like cryin' too Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Sits in her room, outside the rain is falling She's got a phone, but you know he ain't callin' Just another married man that's all he was. Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love

The story of a broken heart Well the sprinftime is coming and the honeybees are humming And I just saw a robin flying by While your wedding bells are ringing my poor heart is singing The story of a broken heart, hmm, the story of a broken heart When the trees start to blooding the mem'ries start to flooding And my heart takes a trip to yesterday When we walked neath the moon an our love was in bloom Now we're two lovers drifted apart, hmm, the story of a broken heart Now the wedding invitation forced out to your relation But you ask me to give the pride away Although I can't show it I think that you'll know it A story that's told from my heart, hmm, the story of a broken heart

Where did your fate go? Was I just to fall on my own? If this room was full of lies Is that how you fooled me with love? I see how you changed me, I know what you said It don't make me hate you, I wish that it did I'm, I'm trying to find words, trying to make sense If I don't try, where do I find the lies between the lines? Why does it hurt so much? Won't understand, no, I can't let this go Oh, you made plans now, you can't shut me down Ah, you're advanced, but you can't tell them now No, you can't tell them how You face the pain while your days are numbered You took the highway, you've done it always You hurt this woman, you put your needs first And I've heard this many times in my head, but it still remains That you had all of this Oh-oh, you still search for bad Oh, you fought all of this You don't even know how bad it got So much for you're my one and only You'd say that you were all mine You knew that your words were hard to stand by I was scared of change, but then I complied even though it hurt I stayed and now I'm glad you have it all But there's things that you can't buy Glad that you said sorry, but habits they die hard Why, you want to offer me love that you don't have? Loving you exhausted me, baby, and you charged, you charged I'll take the high road, I've done it always Our time is old, there's only one way You hurt this woman, you put your needs first It's played out many times in my head, but it still remains That you had all of this Oh-oh, you still search for bad Oh, you fought all of this You don't even know how bad it goes So much for you're my one and only (You had all of this) (Oh, you still search for bad) So much for you're my one and only (You fought all of this) (You don't even know how bad it got) So much for you're my one and only I'll wait, I'll wait for faster Only I quit I'll wait, I'll wait for faster I'm all for that I'll wait, I'll wait for faster Only I quit I'll wait, I'll wait for faster I'm all for that
