Lipstick on a paper cup Vodka bottle emptied oh – Who’s crying now Babies crying momma’s drunk Guess I’ll have to pick them both up – Who’s sorry now Misery loves company - I’m stuck with her - She’s stuck with me   What if I’d gone away – What if I’d never stayed – What if I left today Would we be happy now – Could we be happy now   Stupid games of truth or dare Like worn out jeans my favorite pair – Who’s fading now Thought there’s nothing I can’t fix This life’s a house of cards and pick-up-sticks – Who’s playing now The more we live the more I learn - She’s stuck with me - Am I stuck with her   What if I’d gone away – What if I’d never stayed – What if I left today Would we be happy now – Could we be happy now   I don’t know why but I’ve been told the more I try the more she’ll love It’s not my fault and we’ll be fine I’ve cried for years and wasted tears and wonder why – why I’m still here I could have left her behind – am I wasting time   What if I’d gone away – What if I’d never stayed – What if I left today Would we be happy now – Could we be happy now What if I’d gone away – What if I’d never stayed – What if I left today Would we be happy now – Could we be happy now What if I’d never stayed – What if I’d gone away Am I wasting time – Could we be happy now

Wait 03:47
I remember oh December thirteen A court-room full of lies – A truth that was never seen And I remember oh the tears in my kids eyes Torn right from my hands all I could do was cry And as they walked away all I could say… Wait – Wait – You’re a million miles away Go on and Wait – Wait – But remember what I say ‘Till the moon doesn’t shine – ‘till the end of time and more I’ll fight every day – And I’ll be with you for sure But for now you have to wait I remember as I walked out of that court I heard every word – every cry – then a million lies more And I remember – But I wish I could forget I lived and died in the blink of an eye but I never quit And all I could say to myself every day just… Wait – Wait – They’re a million miles away Go on and Wait – Wait – and remember what I said ‘Till the sun doesn’t rise – ‘till the end of time and more I’ll fight every day – And they’ll be with me for sure ‘Till then we have to wait Just wait - Keep the faith Just wait

I lost something to believe in gone is everything I’ve known Lost every other season, Summer, Spring and now my fall I’m left with nothing – no there’s nothing but Winter for me Gone is every other season – I’m so cold and I need a reprieve So Lord give me a reason – reach down your hand - give me a new start And Lord give me a season to warm my cold heart I’m left without reason maybe I’m better off alone A love turned into treason – my heart that was tuned to stone Lord, give me a reason – reach down your hand - give me a new start Lord, give me your healing – send down your love to shine on my heart Lord, give me an answer – send me a sign give me a new start And Lord please give me a season to warm my cold heart I – I feel nothing are you up there and listening to me Gone with every other season, God you’re cold and I’m left here to freeze Lord, give me a reason – reach down your hand - give me a new start Lord, give me your healing – send down your love to shine on my heart Lord, give me an answer – send me a sign give me a new start And Lord please give me a season to warm my cold heart

There’s a picture on the wall that looks just like me It’s a black and white faded photo dated 1963 It’s been there forever, as long as I remember But, is it me - No My life with you oh I’ll never know Is there something in you in me?   I’ve been waiting for the moment I’ve been waiting for that day Waiting for you so I can see If there’s something in you in me Is there something in you in me?   No one ever said your name on a whisper or a dare Or how you came to leave and if you even cared I’m not sure of the story and why you left our home But, I do know how it ends. All Alone My life with you oh I’ll never know Is there something in you in me?   I’ve been waiting for the moment I’ve been waiting for that day Waiting for you so I can see If there’s something in you in me   There’s a picture on the wall that looks just like me It can never show the other half of how I came to be My life with you will I ever know if there’s something in you in me   I’ve been waiting for the moment Tired of waiting for you now I’ve been waiting for you so I can see If there’s something in you in me I’ve been waiting for the moment Tired of waiting for you now I’ve been waiting for you so I can see If there’s something in you in me   No - There’s nothing in you in me

Go Home 03:28
Little Queenie You stay with me – But, we live alone Why don’t you go home Why don’t you go home You don’t see me - Am I invisible Won’t touch me - Am I unlovable Cold as ice and hard as stone Why won’t you go home Why won’t you go home   Angel You take me straight to hell Why won’t you go home Why don’t you go home You don’t believe me - Am I untrustable Won’t feel me - Am I untouchable You cut me to the bone Why don’t you go home Why won’t you go home   Little Queenie Just leave and take – take your goddamn throne Why don’t you go home Why don’t you go home Why won’t you go home Why won’t you go home No I won’t forget and I don’t regret it’s true You almost – Almost loved me too Why don’t you go home Why don’t you go home
