1.How Do I Get There
We've always been the best of friends
No secrets and no demands
But suddenly from out of the blue
I see a different light around you
One thing I haven't told you,
I just want to hold you
And never let go,
I just want to know
(Chorus)
How do I get there from here
How do I make you see
How do I tell you what my heart's been tellin' me
Lost in your lovin' arms
that's where I want to be
You know I love you
How do I get there
You probably think I've lost my mind
Takin' this chance crossin' that line
But I promise to be truer than true
Dreaming every night with these arms around you
I can't wait any longer this feeling's gettin' stronger
help me find a way
(Chorus)
I know the shortest distance between two points is a straight
line
But I'll climb any mountain that you want me to climb
The perfect combination is your heart and mine
Darlin' won't you give me a sign
(Chorus)
2.I've Loved Enough To Know
I hear what you're telling me but that don't make it so
Two timing talking sweet from the time your feet hit the floor
My heart is telling me it's time to let you go
Oh baby let go...
(Chorus)
I've loved enough to know
A heartache when I see one coming
Been down this road before
I've loved enough to know
Every night out with the boys You think i'm so naive
I know excatly where you're going every time you leave
I see every little something up your sleeve
Oh baby I can see
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
3.If This Is Love
Hold your racing horses just one minute
A funny feeling coming over me
I'm hearing violins and Tony Bennett
Boy if this is love then I'm in it
(Chorus)
It was a triple digit summer
I thought I'd let you share my ice cream cone
We took a walk going nowhere
But I was already already gone
The train of love is rolling and i'm on it
Destination end of the line
Evert star i see i wish upon it
Boy if this is love well then i want it
(Chorus)
It wasn't bad as i thought it would be now was it
Simple as the dimple in your smile
I just can't resist kissin' and huggin'
Boy if this is love then i sure love it
Boy if this is love
Boy if this is love
Boy if this is love i sure love it
4.Strawberry Wine
(Matraca Berg, Gary Harrison)
He was working through college on my grandpa's farm.
I was thirsting for knowledge and he had a car.
I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child.
When one restless summer we found love growing wild.
On the banks of the river on a well beaten path.
It's funny how those memories they last.
Like strawberry wine and seventeen.
The hot July moon saw everything.
My first taste of love oh bittersweet.
Green on the vine.
Like strawberry wine.
I still remember when thirty was old.
And my biggest fear was September when he had to go.
A few cards and letters and one long distance call.
We drifted away like the leaves in the fall.
But year after year I come back to this place.
Just to remember the taste.
Of strawberry wine and seventeen.
The hot July moon saw everything.
My first taste of love oh bittersweet.
Green on the vine.
Like strawberry wine.
The fields have grown over now.
Years since they've seen the plow.
There's nothing time hasn't touched.
Is it really him or the loss of my innocence.
I've been missing so much.
Like strawberry wine and seventeen.
The hot July moon saw everything.
My first taste of love oh bittersweet.
Green on the vine.
Like strawberry wine.
5.That's How You Know It's Love
If you get out in the drivin' rain
Stand in the eye of the hurricane
And never think twice
If you turn your back on selfishness
Cause your thougts are for someone else
Cause they've changed your life
That's how you know it's love
That's how you know it's meant to be
When the span of forever
Just never seems long enough
That's how you know it's love
When you heart insists that you give it all
When you no longer fear the fall
And you just let go
When the past is finally dead and gone
Fate leads you somewhere to the one
That has your soul
That's how you know it's love
That's how you know it's meant to be
When the span of forever
Just never seems long enough
That's how you know it's love
No part of you questions
No part of you doubts
You're only sure this is what love's about
And nothing and no one can stand in your way
Or keep you from saying
What your heart is dying to say
That's how you know it's love
That's how you know it's meant to be
When the span of forever
Just never seems long enough
That's how you know it's love
6.To The Other Side
Everyday seems I turn another page
And it feels like the heartache fades a little more away
Look in the mirror and I like what I see
Hey you didn't take that much baby out of me
Something proud and something strong
Fills the absence of a memory that's dead and gone
I do believe I'm crossing over
Feel that weight come off my shoulder
I close my eys and I drift closer to the other side
Lord I swear I'm crossing over
Found the strength to let you go and
The thought of you is getting colder
And further from my mind
And I think I crossed that line
To the other side
Lately I find when I'm walking through town
I don't have to turn away
I don't have to look down
If I should see you with somebody new
Well I might get sentimental
But I'll make it through
Something real and something right
Puts the shadow of a doubt
In a different light
I do believe I'm crossing over
Feel that weight come off my shoulder
I close my eyes
And drift closer to the other side
Lord I swear I'm crossing over
Found the strength to let you go and
The thought of you is getting colder
And further from my mind
And I think I crossed that line
To the other side.
7.We Danced Anyway
The summer air was heavy and sweet
You and I on a crowded street
There was music everywhere, I can see us there
In a happy little foreign town
Where the stars hung upside down
A half a world away, far far away
I remember you were laughung
We were so in love, we were so in love
And the band played songs we'd never heard
But we danced anyway
We never understood the words
We just sang oh la la la la la la la oh
And we danced anyway
They say you can't go back, baby I don't believe that
Come along with me, come on and dance with me
Maybe if I hold you close
Baby we could just let go
Of these things that tie us down, we'll come back around
Do you remember we were laughing
We were so in love, we were so in love
And the band played songs we'd never heard
But we danced anyway
We never understood the words
We just sang oh la la la la la la la la la oh
And we danced anyway
