Saw your picture on a poster, in a cafe out in Phoenix Guess you're still the sweet heart of the rodeo As for me and little Casey, we still make the circuit In a one horse trailer and a mobile home And she still asks about you all the time And I guess we never even cross your mind But oh sometimes I think about you And the way you used to ride out In your rhinestones and your sequins With the sunlight on your hair And oh the crowd will always love you But as for me I've come to know Everything that glitters is not gold Well old Red he's getting older, and last Saturday he stumbled But you know I just can't bear to let him go Little Casey she's still growing and she's started asking questions And there's certain things a man just doesn't know Her birthday came and you never even called I guess we never cross your mind at all But then sometimes I think about you And the way you used to ride out In your rhinestones and your sequins With the sunlight on your...

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth Would care to know my name Would care to feel my hurt? Who am I, that the bright and morning star Would choose to light the way For my ever wandering heart? Not because of who I am But because of what You've done Not because of what I've done But because of who You are I am a flower quickly fading Here today and gone tomorrow A wave tossed in the ocean A vapor in the wind Still You hear me when I'm calling Lord, You catch me when I'm falling You've told me who I am I am Yours Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin Would look on me with love And watch me rise again? Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea Would call out through the rain And calm the storm in me? Not because of who I am But because of what You've done Not because of what I've done But because of who You are I am a flower quickly fading Here today and gone tomorrow A wave tossed in the ocean A vapor in the wind Still You hear me when I'm callin...

A corner office was his dream More like a prison now it seems Somewhere on the corporate climb He left his warrior behind Now he's just a worker at a daily grind Steals his years and numbs his mind His strength is fading, his dreams are blind This is not the life he had in mind She lies awake 'cause he's up all night Staring at a screen that tells him lies That the grass is greener on the other side So she's at the gym fighting off the years To be young again and calm her fears That she'll never be enough for him Just as a young man catches her eye Now they're trapped in their own worlds, in their own wars With their cell phones and the closed doors It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems But they're all alone together In the house of their dreams Little sister, she's a sixteen-year-old princess Lost somewhere between the swing set And her brand new crush's chariot awaits And big brother's rooms glowing with trophies that shout his na...

It's a human sign When things go wrong When the scent of her lingers And temptation's strong Into the boundary Of each married man Sweet deceit comes calling And negativity lands Cold cold heart Hard done by you Some things look better, baby Just passing through And it's no sacrifice Just a simple word It's two hearts living In two separate worlds But it's no sacrifice No sacrifice It's no sacrifice at all Mutual misunderstanding After the fact Sensitivity builds a prison In the final act We lose direction No stone unturned No tears to damn you When jealousy burns Cold, cold heart Hard done by you Some things look better, baby Just passin' through And it's no sacrifice Just a simple word It's two hearts livin' In two separate worlds But, it's no sacrifice No sacrifice It's no sacrifice, at all Cold, cold heart Hard done by you Some things look better, baby Just passin' through And it's no sacrifice Just a simple word It's two ...
