Martina McBride( 瑪緹娜 ) Evolution歌詞
1.I'm Little But I'm Loud

Written:Jimmy Dickens/Bourdleaux Bryant

I'm puny short and little but I'm loud
I learned to do my singing walking 'long behind a plow
The singing teacher always passed me by
And so I learned to sing the only way I know how
Just rear back openup and let her fly

CHORUS
I'm little but I'm loud
I'm poor but I'm proud
I'm countrified an I don't care who knows it
I'm like a Banty Rooster in a big red rooster crowd
I'm puny short and little but I'm loud
I'm puny short and little but I'm loud


2.Happy Girl

Written:Annie Roboff/Beth Neilsen Chapman

I used to live ina darkened room
Had aface of stone
And a hert of gloom
Lost my hope, I was so far gone
Cryin' all my tears
With the curtains drawn
I didn't know until my soul broke free
I've got these angels watching over me

CHORUS
Oh watch me go
I'm a happy girl
Everybody knows
That the sweetest thing you'll ever see
In the whole wide world
Is a happy girl

I used to hide in a party crowd
Bottled up inside
Feeling so left out
Standing in a corner wearing concrete shoes
With my frozen smile
And my lighted fuse
Now every time I start to feel like that
I roll out my heart like a welcom mat

REPEAT CHORUS

Laugh when I feel like it
Cry when i feel like it
That's just how my life is
That's how it goes
Oh watch me go
I'm a happy girl
And I've come to know
That the world won't change
Just 'cause I complain
Let the axis twirl
I'm a happy girl

REPEAT CHORUS

Oh, yeah Oh, yeah
I'm a happy girl


3.Be That Way

Written:Stephony Smith/Bob Dipiero

Every time I turn around
I run into your pride
Sometimes I'm not so sure if I wanna
Know that guy, know that guy
'Cause you got a rock hard head
Stubborn as a mule
Oh, yeah, and by the way, I still love you

CHORUS
Go on and be that way
Slam that door
Make a scene
Yell some more
Come on let's have it out
Have your say
'Cause with a love this strong
Baby it's okay
For you to be that way

Sometimes what you don't say
Can make the deepest cut
And I get my feelings hurt
And I just go nuts, well a little nuts
So try to ignore that girl She's just blowin' off steam
Oh and I don't know about her
But I hope you say to me

REPEAT CHORUS

Baby let's get emotional
What do you say we let it all go
Let it go

REPEAT CHORUS

Be that way, oh yeah


4.A Broken Wing

Written:James House/Sam Hogin/Phil Barnhart

She loved him like he was
The last man on Earth
Gave hime everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up to her
Give a little, then take it back

She'd tell him about her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
'You're crazy for believin'
You'll ever leave the ground'
He said, 'Only angels know how to fly'

CHORUS
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly

One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note by the window
With the curtains blowin' in the breeze

REPEAT CHORUS

With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly


5.Wrong Again

Written:Tommy Lee James/Cynthia Weil

From the day we met
You made me forget
All my fears
Knew just what to say
And you kissed away
All my tears

I knew this time I had finally found
Someone to build my life around
Who'd be a lover and a friend
After all my heart had put me through
I knew that it was safe with you
And what we had would never end
Wrong again

Everybody swore
They'd seen this before
We'd be fine
And you'd come to see that you still loved me
In good time

And they said there's nothing you can do
It's something that he's going through
It happens to a lot of men
And I told myself that they were right
That you'd wake up and see the light
And I just had to wait 'til then
Wrong again

And it seemed to me the pain would last
My chance for happiness had passed
And nothing waited 'round the bend
I was sure I'd never find someone
To heal the damage you had done
And my poor heart would never mend
Wrong again
Wrong again


6.Keeping My Distance

Written:Jimmy Davis/Tommy Burroughs/Don Smith

I'm keeping my calandar open
Even if it takes me years
'Til you figure out what your plan is
You figure out all of your fears
I don't wanna know anything about her
Or what you feel like you have to defend
But I've seen your situation
And the world she keeps you in

CHORUS
I'm keeping my distance
I'm keeping my distance
And I'll wait until my time is here
I'm keeping my distance
I'm keeping my distance
And I'll wait until you make it clear

If you don't want to rush it baby
Well then by all means don't
But I'm gonna wait for the day when
You see that it's me you want
I can see, I can tell that you need me
You know that I need you too
So why on earth can't you ever let her go
Will you ever try anything new

REPEAT CHORUS

Where will you find the strength
I can't hold you against your will
You keep me at arm's length
I'm reaching out to hold you still, yeah, yeah, yeah

I can see that you need me
You know that I need you too
So why on earth can't you ever let her go
Will you ever try anything new

I'm keeping my distance
I'm keeping my distance
And I'll wait until my time is here
I'm keeping my distance
I'm keeping my distance


7.Still Holding On

Written:Clint Black/Matraca Berg/Marty Stuart
Vocal:Martina Mcbride/Clint Black

(Clint)
There's something out there left for you
But it's not me
We've reached a point of no return
it's only right I set you free

(Martina)
I know I'll have to turn away
But there's nowhere for my love to go
And there won't come a day
When I won't honor what we've vowed

CHORUS
But I'll go on with my life
We can even say goodbye for now if
If that's what we have to do
But here in my heart
When my arms are empty darlin'
I'm still holdin' on to you

(Clint)
We can't deny that this one's
Out of our control
Stronger than the both of us
And bound to take its toll

(Martina)
I can stand the test of time
And as far as I can see
There are no walls that we can't climb
Standin' between you and me

(REPEAT CHORUS)

And there's a place you'll always be
No matter where you are
You're here with me
When the world is turning upside down
Together we can stand our ground
We can even say goodbye for now if
If that's what we have to do
But here in my heart
Even when my arms are empty darlin'
I'm still holdin' on to you

I'm still holdin' on to you...


8.Whatever You Say

Lyrics:Tony Martin/Ed Hill
Music:Tony Martin/Ed Hill

You think I'm always makin'
Something out of nothin'
you're sayin' everything's okay
You've always got an answer
Before I ask the question
Whatever you say

Now we can change the subject
Pretend I never brought it up
Same old story anyway
Later we can work it out
Right now you're talked out
Yeah, whatever you say

CHORUS
Oh I know you can hear me
But i'm not sure you're listening
I hear what you're sayin'
But there's somthing missin'
Whether I go whether I stay
Right now depends on
Whatever you say

You say yes you need me
And no you wouldn't leave me
And that should be enough to make me stay
And even though I want to
I don't hear I love you
In whatever you say

REPEAT CHORUS

Oh whether I go whether I stay
Right now depends on
Whatever you say
Whatever you say
Whatever you say


9.I Won't Close My Eyes

Written:Kevin Montgomery/Larry B.Gottlieb

I don't wanna think
That you could be runnin' around
After all the love
That I have shown you

(CHORUS)
I won't knock on your door
I won't call to see if you're home
But I won't close my eyes

Love's a matter of trust
And I just want to believe in us
But last night in your kiss
I felt a lie on your lips

(REPEAT CHORUS)

There are two kinds of love
Those who are true and those untrue
I see black and white
Are you somewhere lost between the two

I won't knock on your door
I won't call to see if you're home
I won't knock on your door
I won't call to see if you're home
But, I won't close my eyes
No, I won't close my eyes

I don't wanna think
That you could be runnin' around


10.I Don't Want To See You Again

Lyrics:Jackson Leap
Music:Jackson Leap

I don't want to see you
'Cause I don't want to feel you

Don't look so surprised
I told you that I'd say good-bye
If you couldn't just make up your mind
You keep saying love can wait
But I can't and it's too late
This old heart has just run out of time

(CHORUS)
I don't want to see you
'Cause I don't want to feel you
I don't want a love that I can't win baby
I don't want you to call
'Cause if I can't have it all
I don't want to see you again

When your new life gets you down
Don't be tempted to come around
Just think of all the times I let you slide
And when your teardrops finally come
You'll realize that I'm the one
But I won't be there when it's your turn to cry

(REPEAT CHORUS 2X)


11.Some Say I'm Running

Written:Brent Bourgeois/Michael W.Smith

Here I go restless heart
Another lovely misadventure in the dark
All my friends who knew me when
Tell me not to wander down that road again
What they don't know what they can't see
It's that being on that road that makes me free
Some say I'm running
I know I'm falling back to you

The water's deep under the bridge
As I pass by our old house upon the ridge
All our sins have washed away
Now all that's left are all the things we didn't say
Oh restless heart you beat so fast
While my mind is telling me that it won't last
Some say I'm running
I know I'm falling back to you

Against the odds I'll roll the dice
I guess my heart has won despite all good advice
So grab your things and come on in
And get to know your children once again
When does a fool stop being a fool?
And since when is love obliged to any rules?
Some say I'm running
I know I'm falling back to you

Let's learn to give let's talk things out
Some say I'm running
But I know I'm falling back to you


12.Here In My Heart

Written:Gayla Borders/Susan Ashton

Wondering, waiting
Restless for a sign
I thought you walked so slow
In my haste I left you behind
Caught in the pace of this madness
Searching for shelter I find

(CHORUS)
That here in my heart there's a refuge waiting
Here in my heart you just won't let me go
I could run away run away
But you stay here in my heart

Meaning, purpose
Got lost in pursuit of my dreams
I've been longing, aching
In quest for a love that's supreme

(REPEAT CHORUS 2X)

I couldn't see you were reaching
But I should've known all along

(REPEAT CHORUS 2X)


13.One Day You Will

Written:Richard Leigh/Shane Teeters

I am timeless, I am patient
I'm beside you and above
I'm the words when you need comfort
I'm the feeling you call love

(CHORUS)
You say that you can take or leave me
You think right now that you don't need me
Some way, somehow young heart believe me
One day you will
One day you will

You're a vessel, your a temple
You're a journey just begun
You're a young one who is running
You are destined to find love

And when you're lost, that's when you'll find me
We can't see till we are blinded
It's already all been decided
That one day you will
One day you will

(REPEAT CHORUS)

I am timeless, I am patient
I'm the feeling you call love


14.Valentine

Written:Jim Brickman/Jack Kugell
Vocal:Martina Mcbride/Jim Brickman

If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart until the end of time
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You've opened my eyes
And showed me how to love unselfishly

I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
But in my dreams I couldn't love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time...
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine

(SOLO)

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart until the end of time
'Cause all I need is you, my Valentine
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine
