lyrics
- 4. I hope that it dont go away
- 5. I guess that says it all
- 8. one day
I hope that it don’t go away
(Brendan Croker)
I wish that you wouldn’t stay out so lay
Come on home to me darlin’, come on home to me darlin’
You been away so long, you been away so long
Time after time when I look out of this window
Look out of this window
I think I see you come, I think I see you come
When I can hear your voice
I love to hear it when you whisper, hear it when you whisper
And you say anything at all, you just say anything at all
I’m passing the time away, just sitting here and thinking
Sitting here and thinking
And I hope soon you’ll come, and I hope soon you’ll come
This is all I have to say, its only my idea of heaven
its only my idea of heaven
And I’m just passing to time away, and I’m just passing to time away
This is all I have to say, its only my idea of heaven
its only my idea of heaven
And I hope that it don’t go away
I hope that it don’t go away
I hope that it don’t go away
I hope that it don’t go away
I hope that, I hope that, I hope that at don’t go away

I guess that says it all
(Brendan Croker, Gary Scruggs)
Baby’s got nothing to say, I guess that says it all
My only conversations are with the echoes down the wall
Each time that I call her, her phone just rings off the wall
Baby’s got nothing to say, I guess that says it all
When I heard that she’d found someone new, I swore it was a lie
I remember those times that she said our love would never die
She made a promise that she would never make me cry
When I heard that she’d found someone new I swore it was a lie.
In my dreams I do ok. ‘cause I her all the things she used to say
Every word is filled with love and I’m no only one she’s thinking of
The they silence is golden , but I don’t believe it at all
The postman walks lay by everyday
But I don’t her no letters fall
I just here and read writing on the wall
The they silence is golden , but I don’t believe it at all
In my dreams I do ok. ‘cause I her all the things she used to say
Every word is filled with love and I’m no only one she’s thinking of
But baby’s got nothing to say, I guess that says it all
My only conversations are with the echoes down the wall
Each time that I call her, her phone just rings off the wall
Baby’s got nothing to say, I guess that says it all
Baby’s got nothing to say, I guess that says it all

one day
(Brendan Croker)
I know you’re busy, I don’t meant to complain
But some of the things you do they drive me insane
You don’t care for nobody you just do as you please
You don’t ever notice if I’m down on my knees
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
You one day, you one day
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
Hey, hey
You’re in a hurry, you’ve got money to make
There isn’t the time for you to give and take
Well I have a point of view, just what will become of you
Will you notice at all as you rise if I fall
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
You one day, you one day
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
Hey, hey, yeah
Hey, hey, I always hoped someday you’d understand
Hey, hey but you always take it whenever you can
Hey, hey what you have don’t even bother me
You can talk of the fool I am
But I don’t want to be part of this plan
I know that you’re hungry, no time to explain
But this thing that is driving you, it brings hurt and it just brings pain
So I won’t ask where are you I know it wont bother you
You don’t ever hear what I say , you don’t care anyway
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
You one day, you one day
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
Hey, hey, yeah
Hey, hey I always hoped someday you’d understand
Hey, hey, but you always take it whenever you can
Hey, hey what you have don’t ever bother me
You can talk of the fool that I can
But I don’t want to be part of this play
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
You one day, you one day
Everything that you do to me
Might happen to you one day
Hey, hey, yeah
Hey, hey, yeah
Hey, hey, yeah

tell me
(Brendan Croker)
Tell me what you do when I’m not there
Tell me what you do when I’m not there
Tell me just what do you see
When you’re far away from me
Tell me what you do when I’m not there
Tell me are you dreaming in your bed
Tell me are you dreaming in your bed
Tell me everything you said
All the thoughts inside your head
Tell me are you dreaming in your bed
Tell me all the things I long to hear
Tell me all the things I long to hear
Tell me each and every day
Even though you’re all so far away
Tell me all that things I long to hear
Tell me what you do when I’m not there
Tell me what you do when I’m not there

there’ll come a day
(Brendan Croker)
This isn’t what I would expect from a friend
You always told me that this never would end
You said over and over and over again this is real
Just gone with no warning, not ever a word
Me I found our because I over heard
Your friends who were talking and me I just feat so absurd
But there’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
You’re gonna want me
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
Its just a matter of time
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
You gonna news me
There’ll come a day, that you won’t find me there
What did he say to you, what did you need
What made you to round and do this to me
No I don’t want an answer and I don’t want to hear myself plead
Shut my eyes and my ears up to everything
My mind it keeps spinning my heard it just rings
I don’t want to see no on, no I wont see no one at all
But there’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
You’re wanna hold me
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
Its just a matter of time
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
That you’ll be sorry
There’ll come a day, that you won’t find me there
But there’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
You’re gonna want me
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
Its just a matter of time
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
You gonna news me
There’ll come a day, that you won’t find me there
But there’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
You’re wanna hold me
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
Its just a matter of time
There’ll come a day, there’ll come a day
That you’ll be sorry
There’ll come a day, that you won’t find me there

running on down this road
(Brendan Croker)
People say I’m the lucks one
Running on down this road
You know me I’m the son of a gun
Running on down this road
And everything you think you see is everything you part on me
And a go through the carrying this load
Running on down this road
People say I’ve got time to kill
Running on down this road
They read their papers and they get their thrills
Running on down this road
And Everything you think you see is everything you want to be
But I’m the one without the fixed abode
Running on down this road
Waiting for the news to come from home
Running on down this road
Did you ever feel life was just on road
Running on down this road
And everything that you don’t need is everything that’s left on me
What will be my ultimate reward
Running on down this road
I’m running on down this road
I’m running on down this road
I’m running on down this road
