EVERY NIGHT (I’M GONNA SPEND MY LIFE LOVING YOU)
w&m by Dana Countryman
Ev’ry night my ev’ry little dream comes true,
‘cause ev’ry night I spend a little more time with you
A-don’t you know that ev’ry time I look into your eyes,
I know that I’m the luckiest of guys
‘Cause you are mine, and that’s the way it’s gotta be
And darlin’,
Ev’ry Night, the moon is shinin’ deep in your eyes
Ev’ry Night, I hear the summer wind in your sighs
And by the stars above, I swear I’m always gonna be true
Ev’ry Night, I’m gonna spend my life lovin’ you
You’re the one, the only one my heart beats for
The only one I’ll ever idolize and adore
A-don’t you know before you came
my lonely life was just a losin’ game
But now I know I’ll never be the same
The diff’rence is my love for you
And darlin’,
Ev’ry Night, the moon is shinin’ deep in your eyes
Ev’ry Night, I hear the summer wind in your sighs
And by the stars above, I swear I’m always gonna be true
Ev’ry Night, I’m gonna spend my life lovin’ you
Oh, darlin’, ev’ry night
I’m gonna love you right
Ev’ry Night, the moon is shinin’ deep in your eyes
Ev’ry Night, I hear the summer wind in your sighs
And by the stars above, I swear I’m always gonna be true
Ev’ry Night, I’m gonna spend my life lovin’ you
Oh, darlin’, ev’ry night
Ev’ry Night, I’m gonna spend my life lovin’ you
Oh, darlin’, ev’ry night I’m gonna love you right
Oh, darlin’, ev’ry night I’ll hug and hold you tight

THRILL ME
w&m by Dana Countryman
So baby,
Cuddle up a little closer to me
Whisper little things, send chills right through me
Baby, only you can do that to me
Thrill me
Just the sight of you
turns me on in ways I know I can't explain
There's a thousand little shock waves in my brain
pulling me close to you
And you know it's true
that I've never really felt like this before
But I never really felt a kiss before
until you kissed me
So baby,
Cuddle up a little closer to me
Whisper little things, send chills right through me
Baby, only you can do that to me
Thrill me through and through
And darlin',
put your hand in mine and say you love me
Make a thousand stars light up above me
Put your arms around me,
kiss me once again and
Thrill me
When I hold your hand,
there's a feeling that I don't quite understand
But this crazy world becomes a wonderland
just made for you and me
And you need to know,
you're the only one who makes me feel this way
and there's really only one thing left to say
Girl, you're my destiny
So baby,
Cuddle up a little closer to me
Whisper little things, send chills right through me
Baby, only you can do that to me
Thrill me through and through
And darlin',
put your hand in mine and say you love me
Make a thousand stars light up above me
Put your arms around me,
kiss me once again and
Thrill me

HERE COME THOSE BUTTERFLIES AGAIN
w&m by Dana Countryman
Lady, I've fallen so in love with you
and fallen' in love was something
I swore I'd never do
You're in control of my heart
One look at you and those feelings start
Here come those butterflies again,
every time I kiss you
Here come those butterflies again,
and every time I kiss you I get that little thrill,
and I get the feeling I always will
Here come those butterflies again
You're in my last few thoughts when I close my eyes,
and you're in my very first thoughts in the dawn when I rise
And in the hours in between,
you're even in my thoughts when I dream
Here come those butterflies again,
every time I kiss you
Here come those butterflies again,
and every time I kiss you I get that little thrill,
and I get the feeling I always will
Here come those butterflies again
You touching me
Me touching you
Loving you's the natural thing to do
And baby, Here come those butterflies again,
every time I kiss you
Here come those butterflies again,
and every time I kiss you
Lady, tonight's the night,
and I'll still love you in the morning's light
Nothing could every be so right.
Here come those butterflies again,
every time I kiss you
Here come those butterflies again,
and every time I kiss you I get that little thrill,
and I get the feeling I always will
Here come those butterflies again

TRICIA’S SONG
w&m by Dana Countryman
You and I had never met
We never knew ‘bout each other
We lived oceans apart
Then, the day I can’t forget
You walked right into my life
Now, you’re right here in my heart
You’re every dream that I’ve dreamed come true
To think that I’ll spend a lifetime lovin’ you
Tricia, my inspiration, my Tricia,
So proud to spend my life with ya
So nice to know that we’ll always be
together, just one family
Like a love song that never ends,
The harmony lingers on,
our love keeps getting’ strong
The best of lovers, the best of friends,
and so many songs unsung
The best is still yet to come
And so tonight, we celebrate
Another year spent together
I’m so happy with you
Hand in hand, throughout the years,
we’ll share a lifetime forever
A love faithful and true
And when my time here on earth is through,
I know that I’ll spend eternity with you
Tricia, I’ll always love you, my Tricia,
So proud to spend my life with ya
So nice to know that we’ll always be
together, just one family
Together, just one family
I found a love that’s true
I waited, girl, for you

I STILL GET SHY
w&m by Dana Countryman
When I see her walkin’ down the street,
my heart gets acrobatic and it skips a beat
I haven’t seen her for a long, long time,
There goes the girl I always wanted to be mine
She still looks so good to me, still as pretty as her picture
She’s still the girl she used to be, ooh
Wonder if she still remembers me,
the quiet kid behind her in Biology
Those were the days when I was really shy,
but now I should go up to her and just say “Hi”
But I get so nervous, I forget what to say
She gives me that smile and takes my breath away
I Still Get Shy, when I look into the lady’s eyes
I Still Get Shy, and it kinda takes me by surprise
It’s been so many years
(Instrumental)
She says, “So nice to see you again.
We should really get together”
But then she turns and walks away
Oh, no
Now I’ve been out with lots of other girls
I’ve kissed a few and gotten tangled in their curls
I’ve even fallen hard for one or two,
but none of them could thrill me like she used to do
Maybe this time I’ll know just what to say,
but here comes that smile to take my breath away
I Still Get Shy, when I look into the lady’s eyes
I Still Get Shy, and it kinda takes me by surprise
It’s been so many years
I thought I’d gotten over her
Guess I was wrong
I Still Get, I Still Get Shy
When I look into the lady’s eyes
I Still Get, I Still Get Shy
And it kinda takes me by surprise
I Still Get, I Still Get Shy
You know it’s been so many years

I'LL TELL THE WORLD
w&m by Dana Countryman
I know you've got your doubts about my love for you
You think that I'm just havin' fun,
but I keep saying' you're the only one
And all the other girls I kissed before we met,
well, that's all ancient history
'Cause darlin', you're the only one for me
(So tell me what it's gonna take)
to prove my love is true
(Should I should it from a mountain top?)
Well, that's exactly what I'm gonna do
I'll tell the world that I love you, girl
I'll shout it from the highest tree
that it's me and you, yeah
I'll tell the world it's forever, girl
Just you wait and see, whoa
I'll tell the world I love you
I've gotta find a way to make you understand
that I'm not like those other guys
the kind who'll break your heart and tell you lies
Girl, I don't have a diamond ring, no fancy car
I'll probably never own a yacht,
but I can give you lots of what I've got
(So baby, give me half a chance)
to show my love is real
(Guess I'll have to make a video)
I'm gonna tell the world the way I feel
I'll tell the world that I love you, girl
I'll shout it from the highest tree
that it's me and you, yeah
I'll tell the world it's forever, girl
Just you wait and see, whoa
I'll tell the world I love you
And every night I dream of how it's gonna be,
when I take you into my arms at last
I know there'll finally come a time you'll give your love to me
Until the day my dream comes true,
I'm gonna tell the world there's no one but you
(Inst.)
(So tell me what it's gonna take)
to prove my love is true
(Should I should it from a mountain top?)
Well, that's exactly what I'm gonna do
I'll tell the world that I love you, girl
I'll shout it from the highest tree
that it's me and you, yeah
I'll tell the world it's forever, girl
Just you wait and see, whoa
I'll tell the world I love you

I LIE AWAKE AND DREAM OF YOU
w&m by Dana Countryman
I turn the lights off, and I go to bed,
but it’s no use I can’t get the thought of you out of my head.
It’s really quite a joke to try to sleep,
‘cause I close my eyes and that’s the time your memory I keep
So I lie awake and wonder if you’re awake like me,
the only thing I’m sure of, is tonight it’s gonna be
Another night of counting sheep,
another night I’ll never sleep
I close my eyes, but your face keeps shinin’ through
So instead, I lie awake and dream of you
Is this the real thing? It’s so hard to tell,
‘cause after all it’s true that I don’t know you all that well
My friends all tell me not to lose my head, so I try to listen to them
but I lose my heart instead
I stare out of my window and watch the stars above
Another sleepless night, and just another fool in love
Another night of counting sheep,
another night I’ll never sleep
I close my eyes, but your face keeps shinin’ through
So instead, I lie awake and dream of you
Maybe I’m a fool to carry on the way I do
But I know I’d only fall asleep, and start to dream of you
I close my eyes, but your face keeps shinin’ through
So instead, I lie awake and dream,
instead, I lie awake and dream…
instead, I lie awake and dream of you

SHE LOVES ME
w&m by Dana Countryman
My baby’s so good to me
She’s everything a lover could be,
and I love my baby, love that baby of mine
I want all the world to know
she’s ev’rything that matters to me
‘Cause I love my baby, love that baby of mine
I love ev’ry little thing about her,
and all of the gold on earth
wouldn’t mean a thing without her
Ooh, she’s so fine, and I can’t believe she’s mine
I feel so proud, I’ll shout it out loud,
‘cause I just gotta tell the world that
She Loves Me, and nothin’ ever felt so right
Yeah, She Loves Me, and I’m gonna see her tonight
Can’t wait to hold the girl I love in my arms
Just the thought of holdin’ her tight,
gets me so high I’m clear outta sight
‘Cause she’s so fine, she’s mine, and She Loves Me
I’ve seen how they look at her
Those guys have got romance in their eyes
They all want my baby, want that baby of mine
They’re just gonna have to dream
She doesn’t care a thing for those guys
They don’t know my baby
They’re just wastin’ their time
‘Cause we got a real good thing together,
and over the years, it seems
it just keeps right on gettin’ better
Ooh, so let them stare
It won’t get them anywhere
Go on and let them stare
So what do I care, ‘cause I’m the one she’s taking home
‘Cause She Loves Me, and nothin’ ever felt so right
Yeah, She Loves Me, and I’m gonna see her tonight
You know I’ve been waiting all my life for her
And now that she’s here, I’ll hold on tight
No, I’m never gonna let her go
I love ev’ry little thing about her,
and all of the gold on earth
wouldn’t mean a thing without her
Ooh, she’s so fine, and I can’t believe she’s mine
I feel so proud, I’ll shout it out loud,
‘cause I just gotta tell the world that
She Loves Me, and nothin’ ever felt so right
Yeah, She Loves Me, and I’m gonna see her tonight
She Loves Me, and nothin’ ever felt so right
Yeah, She Loves Me, and I’m gonna see her tonight

PEANUT BUTTERY GUMDROP GIRL
w&m by Dana Countryman
Shooby Dooby Doo Bop Bop, Shoolang lang
Tra la la la la
Shooby Dooby Doo Bop Bop, Shoolang lang
La la la la la
I'll never forget when I met her,
down at the candy store
I was just a little kid, only six years old
and she was only four
As we grew up together,
she grew prettier every day
Now she's mine, all mine
and I'm her valentine
She's sweet in every way
Now we hold hands in the movies
kissin' in the balcony
I buy her lots of Cokes and Jujube's
that makes her kisses sweet, as sweet as can be
'Cause she's my
Peanut Buttery Gumdrop Girl
She's got my head in a crazy whirl
A-spinnin' 'round, makin' my heart twirl
My Peanut Buttery Gumdrop Girl
Shooby Dooby Doo Bop Bop, Shoolang lang
Tra la la la la
Shooby Dooby Doo Bop Bop, Shoolang lang
La la la la la
Now ev'ry day you'll find me
walking her home from school
I guess her mom and dad
don't think that I'm too bad
They know that our love is true
And maybe someday we'll get married,
and raise up a family
We'll buy the candy store
and build a house next door
and live so happily
Maybe one day we'll let our children
work in the candy store
The very same place we got together
But first, we gotta grow up just a little bit more
'Cause she's my
Peanut Buttery Gumdrop Girl
She's got my head in a crazy whirl
A-spinnin' 'round, makin' my heart twirl
My Peanut Buttery Gumdrop Girl

FOR NOW AND FOREVER
w&m by Dana Countryman
Love, starting today we've begun
living our two lives as one,
For Now and Forever
To think we might not ever have met
Chances were so few, and yet
here we are together
And now, hand in hand with promises said,
we stand with our whole lives ahead
and so much to share
My love, you and I were meant to be
lovers through eternity
For Now and Forever
Our life together has just seen the dawn,
but long after our lives are gone
our love will remain
For time cannot erase what we've found
Our very souls are now bound
For Now and Forever

A LADY LIKE YOU
w&m by Dana Countryma
My love, you came into my life when I wasn’t doin’ very good
You smiled that pretty smile, and I knew that you understood
That’s all you had to do – I knew I’d love you to the end, my love
A man needs a woman to be a lover and a friend, ooh,
and that’s what I knew I had found in
A Lady Like You, my love
All my life I waited, lookin’ for A Lady Like You, my love
Now at last I found you, and you’re just too good to be true, my love
You’re everything that I’ve dreamed of, ooh
And if you want me to, I’ll spend my life with you, my love
My sweet love, there’s another side to me you’ve never known
A frightened little boy who’s so afraid to be alone
And all I wanna do, is hear you say you love me, too, my love
Baby, it’s the hardest thing a man can do,
to put his heart right on the line for
A Lady Like You, my love
All my life I waited, lookin’ for A Lady Like You, my love
Now at last I found you, and you’re just too good to be true, my love
You’re everything that I’ve dreamed of, ooh
And if you want me to, I’ll spend my life with you, my love
My love, a man needs a woman who’ll stand beside him to the end,
and that’s what I know I had found in
A Lady Like You, my love
All my life I waited, lookin’ for A Lady Like You, my love
Now at last I found you, and you’re just too good to be true, my love
You’re everything that I’ve dreamed of, ooh
And if you want me to, I’ll spend my life with you, my love
My love
All my life I waited, lookin’ for A Lady Like You, my love
Now at last I found you, and you’re just too good to be true, my love

ETERNITY
w&m by Dana Countryman
Deep within the night
in the silence of our room
You lay softly sleeping in my arms,
and I'm filled with all the tenderness of you
I just can't believe the beauty where you lay
As I watch you sleep, you take my breath away
And I wonder what it is that you see in me,
but every night, right here's where I wanna be
And every night I want my arms around you
Ev'ry night until Eternity
Ev'ry night I'll thank the stars I found you
You're the only one I'll ever need,
Every night until Eternity
All the lonely years,
all the loves that came before
All the wasted tears I cried, baby
All my waiting only makes me love you more
When my hopes were gone,
just drifting' off to sea
Then you came along
and gave new life to me
You're the wish upon a star that fin'lly came true
And I just can't imagine not loving you
And every night I want my arms around you
Ev'ry night until Eternity
Ev'ry night I'll thank the stars I found you
You're the only one I'll ever need,
Every night until Eternity

I'll Never Be The Same

I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME
w&m by Dana Countryman
Our love is a sad song,
sorta blue and out of key
A melancholy little melody
Strangely out of tune,
we sleep silently in the same room,
unaware of each other
like two ships in the night
Somewhere along the way,
we simply ceased to care
We're just goin' through the motions
of our broken love affair
And all the King's horses
and all the King's men
couldn't put us back together again
So, all that's left to say is goodbye…
Girl, it's gonna hurt to lose you,
but that's how it has to be
'Cause we just can't live together,
when we can't seem to agree
Yes, it's gonna break my heart
to have to leave you
I just can't help but think of what we had
If we somehow had the chance
to do it over,
would it ever have turned out
to be this sad?
Guess we both could see it comin',
so it comes as no surprise
Now there's nothin' left to say now,
but to say our last goodbyes
And I'll never be the same
without you by my side
Girl, you've really left your mark
upon my heart, a-whoa
And I know, I'll never be the same
without you in my life
So, I'll close the door
and walk out in the rain
You know, I'll never be the same
Guess I'll pack up all my mem'ries,
and I'll just walk out that door
Better leave you my front door keys
I won't need 'em anymore
And it's sad to watch
as love grows old and faded,
though time and time again,
we tried to work it out
But for all the times we tried,
we never made it
So, I'll be leavin' any day now
There isn't any reason left to stay now
So, this is how our story end up
You go your way, I go mine
There's no happy everafter,
only once upon a time
And I'll never be the same
without you by my side
Girl, you've really left your mark
upon my heart, a-whoa
And I know, I'll never be the same
without you in my life
So, I'll close the door
and walk out in the rain,
and know I'll never be the same

What Can I Say?

WHAT CAN I SAY?
w&m by Dana Countryman
I was a child with a heart full of love to share,
but nobody really cared to share it with me
‘Cause I was afraid to let go, and love just wasn’t on my side,
and many’s the time I cried myself off to sleep
So, What Can I Say when you’re lookin’ my way,
and you want to be more than my friend
What Can I Say when I know we’ll never touch
I’ve buried my heart, and it wouldn’t be smart
to drag that old thing out again,
but knowin’ you took the time to care means so much
You, you’re a woman, and ev’rything I could want
You’re beautiful, and you’ve got so much love to give
But I learned a long time ago that it’s better for me alone
I’m safe being on my own and that’s how I’ll live
So, What Can I Say when you’re lookin’ my way,
and you want to be more than my friend
What Can I Say when I know we’ll never touch
I’ve buried my heart, and it wouldn’t be smart
to drag that old thing out again,
but knowin’ you took the time to care means so much
Knowin’ you took the time to care means so much

SUDDENLY
w&m by Dana Countryman
Suddenly, you're in my life now
and it took me by surprise,
'cause you'd really been there
right beside me all along
Now, I feel strong
when I look into your eyes
I can see the love that's waiting for me
Suddenly, my fears are in the past,
knowing you and I were meant to be together
Now I know I've found the one at last,
and I just can't help but think about forever, forever
And this time, my eyes are open
and my feet are on the ground
But my heart is in your hands,
I'm so in love with you
Girl, it's true
You're the one I've waited for
You're the one I'll spend my lifetime loving
Suddenly, my lonely nights are through,
and I need to know you'll always be beside me
Girl, I'm gonna be so good for you,
and I know I'm gonna have your love to guide me
And to think that it all happened to us so suddenly
Suddenly, suddenly,
not a doubt's left in my mind,
and I want to build my life around you
Suddenly, suddenly,
all my tears are far behind,
and I thank the Lord I finally found you
Suddenly, suddenly,
all the others in the past,
they were only a rehearsal for the real thing
You're the real thing,
and I'll be right there for you
Girl, I know I'm gonna care for you a long, long time.

JUST ANOTHER LOVE SONG
w&m by Dana Countryman
I sat down and I tried to write a song today,
to say the words “I love you” in a brand new way
But I guess it’s all been said in a thousand other songs
So I wrote this one, it’s the best that I could do
It’s really nothing new
And so I sing just another love song
Just another melody you’ve prob’ly heard before
The only thing – it’s not just another love song,
It’s the one I wrote for you
And ev’ry word, and ev’ry note is true
It’s not just another love song,
‘cause this one’s just for you
I played this melody at least a hundred times
I struggled with the words to find the perfect rhymes
Tried to say how much I care, and that’s the hardest part
But you make me smile, and I hear a melody,
and this one’s from the heart
And so I sing just another love song
Just another melody you’ve prob’ly heard before
The only thing – it’s not just another love song,
It’s the one I wrote for you
And ev’ry word, and ev’ry note is true
It’s not just another love song,
‘cause this one’s just for you

THROW MY HEART IN THE GARBAGE CAN
w&m by Dana Countryman
You broke my heart again last night
That was your big mistake
'Cause that's the last time that'll happen,
there's nothing' left to break
Guess you'll have to find some other fool
who doesn't know the score
But do me one last favor
as you're walkin' out the door
Throw My Heart In the Garbage Can
It's no good now, this time it won't mend
You broke it, girl, one too many times
It stood all that it could stand
So, Throw My Heart In the Garbage Can
Another broken heart,
another time you didn't care
If I had a dime for every time,
I'd be a millionaire
Then I'd gather all the doctors
who could patch my heart like new
But I don't have a penny,
so there's just one thing to do
Throw My Heart In the Garbage Can
It's no good now, this time it won't mend
You broke it, girl, one too many times
It stood all that it could stand
So, Throw My Heart In the Garbage Can
Throw My Heart In the Garbage Can
It's no good now, this time it won't mend
You broke it, girl, one too many times
It stood all that it could stand
So, Throw My Heart In the Garbage Can
