Lyrics:
Singing carols, stringing popcorn Making footprints in the snow Memories, Christmas memories They're the sweetest ones I know Cookies baking in the kitchen Cards and ribbons everywhere Frosty, Christmas memories Float like snowflakes in the air And oh, the joy of waking Christmas morning The family 'round the tree We had a way of making Christmas morning As merry as can be I close my eyes and see shining faces Of all the children who now have children of their own Funny, but comes December And I remember every Christmas I've known
Singing carols Stringing popcorn Making footprint in the snow Mem'ries Christmas Mem'ries They're the sweetest ones I know Cookies baking In the kitchen Cards and ribbons Everywhere Frosty Christmas Mem'ries Float like snowflakes in the air And oh the joy of waking X-mas morning The fam'ly round the tree We had a way of making X-mas morning As merry as can be I close my eyes and see Shiny faces Of all the children Who now have children of their own Funny But come December' I remember every X-mas I've known We had a way of making X-mas morning As merry as can be I close my eyes and see Those shiny faces Of all the children who now have children Of their own It's funny But come December When I remember Every X-mas I've ever known Singing carols Stringing popcorn Shiny faces of all the children Precious mem'ries Of every Christmas I've known...
It's true you have me twisted round your finger and it seems that's where I belong You know how to hold me to thrill me and control me Just enough to keep me hangin' on For now tomorrow and forever I guess I'm tied to you right or wrong My love keeps a growing cause your love keeps a showing Just enough to keep me hangin' on A love that's strong as mine will make me do most anything Like hiding tears and heartaches and dreaming silly dreams You've got me where you want me you keep stringing me along Just enough to keep me hangin' on just enough to keep me hangin' on
I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas With the kids around the fireplace stringing popcorn for the tree I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas With nothing much that money buys, but everything worthwhile in life Dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas "You can take the girl from the country" I have heard 'em say But you'll never take the country from the girl And me I've been a rambler for the better part of life But no matter where I ramble in this world I keep dreaming of a cabin in my Smoky Mountain home Remembering my life there as a child Just as free as the butterflies, the hummingbirds and streams As different as the snowflakes on the windows of my life And I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas With the kids around the fireplace making angels for a tree I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas With nothing much that money buys but everything worth while in life Dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas Yes, I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas With the kids around the fireplace stringing popcorn for the tree I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas With nothing much that money buys, but everything worthwhile in life Dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas Yes, I'm dreaming of a Smoky Mountain Christmas
Oh, it's carnival night And they're stringing the lights around you Hanging paper angels Painting little devils on the roof Oh the furnace wind Is a flickering of wings about your face In a cloud of incense Yea, it smells like Heaven in this place I can't eat, can't sleep Still I hunger for you when you look at me That face, those eyes All the sinful pleasures deep inside Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in Underneath my skin, Oh you were always my original sin And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin This dangerous game Oh you were always my original sin A dream will fly The moment that you open up your eyes A dream is just a riddle Ghosts from every corner of your life Up in the balcony All the Romeo's are bleeding for your hand Blowing theater kisses Reciting lines they don't understand
You sure know how to get to me Somehow you just wont let it be We both know it’s all in vain But you keep coming round again The many days & nights we’ve tried But every time somebody’s cried And every time should be the end But you keep coming round again Beats any I ever saw 'Cause I know how its gonna go but it just keeps going I guess I keep thinking well, maybe you’re not stringing me on But if you are that string sure has been long There’s something there within your eyes That somehow seems to paralyze And like before I never went You keep coming round again
You've got me where you want me you keep stringing me along Just enough to keep me a hangin' on It's true you have me twisted around your finger It seems that's where I belong You know how to hold me thrill me and control me Just enough to keep me a hangin' on Oh just enough to keep me a hangin' on My heart is like a yo-yo on a string I'm tied to you right or wrong My love keeps a growing 'cause your love keeps a showing Just enough to keep me a hangin' on Oh just enough to keep me a hangin' on A love that's strong as mine will make me do most anything Like hiding tears and heartaches and dreaming silly dreams You've got me where you want me you keep stringing me along Just enough to keep me a hangin' on oh just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Please, don't say you're sorry again Remember I've heard you say it before Don't say you're sorry again You'll only hurt me some more You take such delight And you think it's alright in making me blue I don't complain why, I've got to be insane For stringing along with you Please, don't, don't say it again You'll overdo it, overdo it someday I won't be, I won't believe anything There'll be the devil to pay Well, if that's what you want Then just say the word and I'll be on my way But, please, please, don't say it Don't say it, don’t say it again Or you'll be sorry someday
So many things I think about When I look far away Things I know, things I wonder Things I'd like to say The more we think we know about The greater the unknown We suspend our disbelief And we are not alone Mystic rhythms capture my thoughts Carry them away Mysteries of night escape the light of day Mystic rhythms under northern lights Oh, the African sun Primitive things stir the hearts of everyone We sometimes catch a window A glimpse of what's beyond Was it just imagination Stringing us along? More things than are dreamed about Unseen and unexplained We suspend our disbelief We are entertained Mystic rhythms capture my thoughts Carry them away Nature seems to spin A supernatural way Mystic rhythms under city lights Or a canopy of stars We feel the powers And we wonder what they are (Oh, oh, oh) Mystic rhythms capture my thoughts Carry them away Mysteries of night escape the light of day Mystic rhythms under northern lights Or a canopy of stars We feel the push and pull Of restless rhythms from afar

You Caught Me At A Bad Time Lyrics I don't need this conversation I don't need to see you cry You need one more confirmation Like I need one more reason why Though this might not be the answer What you came here to get We both know that girl is something That I'm still not over yet I can't go on using you Girl it feels like I'm losing you A love like yours is hard to find But you caught me at a bad time I knew that you'd be waiting The night I made that desperate call You weren't everything I needed Just the softest place to fall So I'm not gonna lie to you Just keep stringing you along Thought by now that I'd be better But I guess I'm not that strong I can't go on using you Girl it feels like I'm losing you A love like yours is hard to find But you caught me at a bad time A love like yours is hard to find But you caught me at a bad time
I've lost my way And day by day Playing tough is hard enough When the sun is out Tougher, in rain Oh your touch Stringing little pieces of me into us Giving me the reason to give all my love Making it okay to let go When I was little I was so sure of myself Yeah I knew so little but I felt with every cell And as I grow older my fears grow old as well Yeah when I was little I was so sure of myself Sure of myself (self) Sure of myself (self) Sure of myself (self) Sure of myself (self) And if I've lost my way (how am I still here) Still standing straight (how am I still here) I'm looking up to find I'm tough When the sun goes down And I feel the change Oh your touch Stringing little pieces of me into us Giving me the reason to give all my love Making it okay to let go When I was little I was so sure of myself Yeah I knew so little but I felt with every cell And as I grow older my fears grow old as well Yeah when I was little I was so sure of myself Sure of myself (self) Sure of myself (self) Sure of myself (self) Sure of myself (self) Oh your touch Stringing little pieces of me into us Giving me the reasons to give all my love Making it okay to let go And oh your touch Stringing little pieces of me into us Giving me the reasons to give all my love Making it okay to let go When I was little I was so sure of myself (yeah) Yeah I knew so little but I felt with every cell And as I grow older my fears grow old as well Because when I was little I was so sure of myself When I was little I was so sure of myself (yeah) Yeah I knew so little but I felt with every cell And as I grow older my fears grow old as well When I was little I was so sure of myself (oh)

I never saw it coming that you could do me wrong You really had me going, baby Oh you proved you're good with a lie Are you that good with goodbye You really had me You really had me going, stringing me along You really had me going, baby And now I'm gone. And now I'm gone, and now I'm gone
I've been hearing symphonies Before, all I heard was silence A rhapsody for you and me And every melody is timeless Life was stringing me along Then you came and you cut me loose Was solo, singing on my own Now I can't find the key without you And now your song is on repeat And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat And when you're gone, I feel incomplete So, if you want the truth I just wanna be part of your symphony Will you hold me tight and not let go?
Who makes me forget all the other girls I've met Sweet little miss blue eyes Who's sweeter to me that she really ought to be Sweet little miss blue eyes Little miss blue eyes looks so good I'm gonna bring her to the neighborhood I'm gonna make every girl in town Jealous when she's around I'm walking the line 'cause I'm glad that she's mine I'm living in paradise I know I can't go wrong by just stringing along With sweet little miss blue eyes Who's gonna start taking care of my heart She makes me realize It's love, she's for me, and I really want to be With sweet little miss blue eyes

Oh, guess that it's your right to reason I'm still dealing with a force that's so strong The force is stringing us along Some things are better left unsaid Some strings are better left undone Some hearts are better left unbroken Some lives are better left untouched Some lies are better off believed Some words are better left unspoken You're living a lie That's the only thing I can say Ooh, some things are better left Some things are better left unsaid Some strings Some things are better left unsaid Some lives are better Some things are better left unsaid Some hearts are better Some things are better left unsaid Some lies are better Some things are better left unsaid Some things are better left Some things are better left unsaid Some strings Some things are better left unsaid Some lives are better Some things are better left unsaid Some hearts, better Some things are better left unsaid Some lies are better, ooh Some things are better left unsaid Some things are better left Some things are better left unsaid Some strings Some things are better left unsaid Some lives are better Some things are better left unsaid

Very special love very special love affair Life's a game of give and take To prevent the sure heartache Life's a game of give and take in love Yesterday, you said you still loved me Still stringing my poor heart along, baby But since I been without you I can see all the things I done wrong It's not your business i don't need to know I know what you're doing everywhere you go I will not forget you Long as the years pass, baby Your love was fine, so satisfying The pleasure was like pure gold, sugar Now tell me will you forget it And me filled with reverie I look back with disassociation At our history The good times belong to those Who really wish to enjoy, baby I tell all the children Ours was a love that fell Oh, tell me what it really was Made you want to change your life As far as I can see You had paradise, you had paradise Very heavy love very heavy love affair I put you on a pedestal And said I worshiped you secretly, baby I tried my best to change you I'm going to admit my mistakes Just like to the wind Life's a game of give and take To prevent the sure heartache Life's a game of give and take in love Life's a game of give and take To suppress the sure heartache Life's a game of give and take in love Life's a game of give and take To suppress the sure heartache Life's a game of give and take in love
Over there in the shadows, hangin' out in the corner of my mind Stringing up the gallows, waiting for me to cross that line That man's dangerous as hell, a threat to himself If he got out there'd be hell to pay And that's why, my dark side, don't ever see the light of day I've slowed down on the whiskey, 'cause there always comes a point When I've had too many, tear down every wall in that joint I've got a wife, I've got a son, that don't know half the stuff I've done And I pray that's the way that it stays And that's why, my dark side, don't ever see the light of day You can blame it on the rebel raisin', you can blame it on the South You can blame it on the words I try to keep here in my mouth It takes a lot to start me up, but once that hammer drops You don't wanna be the one that tries to make me stop All you thugs and ugly mugs dealing drugs and making noise You can kill each other all you want but if you touch my little boy You'll be beggin' for this bullet will be the last thing that you see Before I let my dark side,come out to play
Singing carols, stringing popcorn Making footprints in the snow Mem'ries, Christmas mem'ries They're the sweetest ones I know Cookies baking in the kitchen Cards and ribbons everywhere Frosty Christmas mem'ries Float like snowflakes in the air And, oh, the joy of waking Christmas morning The family 'round the tree We had a way of making Christmas morning As merry as can be I close my eyes and see shiny faces of all the children Who now have children of their own Funny, but comes December And I remember every Christmas I've known I close my eyes and see shiny faces of all the children Who now have children of their own Funny, but comes December And I remember every Christmas I've known Shiny faces, all the children From all the Christmases I've ever known
It's not your bubble I'm bursting But soon a penny's gonna drop Every time we're conversing I see your head about to pop I'm looking at you, don't like what I see You need to touch ground 'til you're level with me So you better hold it, hold it down, down This is bigger than you, it's bigger than me You're stringing it out like a symphony So you better hold it, hold it down, down, down This ain't the me show, keep it on the low Where's your superego?
