The best part of this small town is we got time We've got parking lots for days We don't need to rush, or worry about being late The best part of this feeling is that it's true My heart keeps beating songs for you I value the simple moments reclining in my state You like my sense of humor And I like the way you smile And we both love long conversations So why don't you stay, why don't you stay a while? You like to dance to music I like to sing about you And we both love long conversations So why don't you stay, why don't you stay awhile? Or maybe for a lifetime The worst part of this feeling is the risk you take You put your heart out there on a plate Before your will grows tired You'll find the gold that comes after the fire The more I get older, the clearer I see The misconceptions embedded me We can love, we can fail It never goes out of style You like my sense of humor And I like the way you smile And we both love long conversations So why don't you stay, why don't you stay a while? You like to dance to music I like to sing about you And we both love long conversations So why don't you stay, why don't you stay awhile? Or maybe for a lifetime, we can spend each day Keeping each other on the right track All the tough moments be vulnerable Speaking our truth, never look back Spinning around inside our circle Taking their shots but we won't crack Taking their shots but we won't crack You like my sense of humor I like the way you smile And we both love long conversations So why don't you stay, why don't you stay awhile? You like to dance to music I like to sing about you And we both love long conversations So why don't you stay, why don't you stay awhile? Why don't you stay awhile? Or maybe for a lifetime Or maybe for a lifetime Or maybe for a lifetime Or maybe for a lifetime

I've been working Working overtime Find who I want to be An' you got something Can't put my finger on it That makes my mind feel free I never thought I'd make it through the summertime I've never seen so much rain There you are, and the storm is rolling away I'm not gonna run Gonna look away Gonna let it out What's done is done There's a better day coming around It's taking some time, to believe, that there's something left of me Maybe you could help me I was thinking you could stay awhile There's a rumble, deep in my heart and It feels like a hurricane You're standing there with your yellow sundress on Taking the clouds away What a feeling buried inside me Been such a long, long time Now I know I couldn't turn back if I tried I'm not gonna run Gonna look away Gonna let it out What's done is done There's a better day coming around It's taking some time, to believe, that there's something left of me Maybe you could help me, I was thinking you would stay awhile It's been years now, we're still together Since that day you stayed awhile And its amazing, you still amaze me That day has changed my life We're not gonna run Not gonna look away Gonna let it out What's done is done Those better days keep coming around It's taken some time, to believe, but you knew what was best for me Baby how you helped me, I'm so glad that you stayed awhile Baby how you helped me, I'm so glad that you stayed awhile

I am thinking of you In my sleepless solitude tonight If it's wrong to love you Then my heart just won't let me be right 'Cause I've drowned in you And I won't pull through Without you by my side I'd give my all to have Just one more night with you I'd risk my life to feel Your body next to mine 'Cause I can't go on Living in the memory of our song I'd give my all for your love tonight Baby can you feel me Imagining I'm looking in your eyes I can see you clearly Vividly emblazoned in my mind And yet you're so far Like a distant star I'm wishing on tonight I'd give my all to have Just one more night with you I'd risk my life to feel Your body next to mine 'Cause I can't go on Living in the memory of our song I'd give my all for your love tonight I'd give my all to have Just one more night with you I'd risk my life to feel Your body next to mine 'Cause I can't go on Living in the memory of our song I'd give my all for your love tonight Give my all for your love Tonight

I think that it's high time we had a talk I think that we're making a big mistake I've been feeling lately the magic is gone Are we just together for convenience sake, baby I don't believe it (feeling) I don't think that's true (tied down) It'll just pass if we allow it to (need to break free) It's just a stage we're going through (they say clean cuts) I think you're just restless for something new (heal much faster) Baby, Feeling like we pay our dime And all we get in return Is a piece of each other's time Are we just Taxi Dancing Lost somewhere in a slow dance for two And the band that was playing Has finally stopped playing our favorite song Are we just Taxi Dancing You're paying for me and I'm paying for you And are we holding on to a feeling With desperation Ohhh Don't know if you're right Don't know if you're wrong Seems to me we haven't danced long Don't make it hard (I won't) Don't make it easy (hold you) We'll just walk away (if you) At the end of the song (must go) Baby, Put one last nickel in the jukebox Give that love we once felt Just one final spin around 'Cause we're just Taxi Dancing Lost somewhere in a slow dance for two And the band that was playing Has finally stopped playing our favorite song And we're just dancing And the band that was playing Has finally stopped playing our favorite song Are we just Taxi Dancing You're paying for me and I'm paying for you And are we holding on to each other in desperation Taxi Dancing

Talk about life, imitating art Well I was sure that I heard the Director yell, "Take it from the start" And I could feel my body crushing yours Camera dollied into place Your husband's in the front row, I couldn't look him in the face Part of the pleasure was that it felt so wrong But it grew too fast, too strong Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? They're blaming it all on me I'm blaming it all on love Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? Just a little sexual tension Under the guise of love Young and tragic, I really felt the part While we were sweating and screaming tearin' out his heart Well I was sure I heard the wind and the wires Crying in sympathy For star-crossed lovers, Ally that ain't you or me Part of the pleasure was that it felt so wrong But it grew too fast, too strong Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? They're blaming it all on me I'm blaming it all on love Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? Just a little sexual tension Under the guise of love For a limited run in to your local bedroom We knew the curtain would be coming down soon Reviews were mixed, the press was unkind Ally I hope they will forgive us in time, in time Part of the attraction was that we knew it couldn't last So we closed our eyes and held on Don't you thing your friends are talking Alyson? Who were we trying to fool? What was I thinking of? Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? They're blaming it all on me I'm blaming it all on love Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson? Just a little sexual tension Under the guise of love
