Are You With Me? CD - 2004
Lover's Vacation

Take a trip
Hit the road
Book a room
On the coast
Me and you
Just need to
Get away
Gonna' be
So much fun
Intimate
One on one
So be there
Or be square
It's all good
A full tank of gas
And an R&B station
We're gonna' drive away
From life's frustration
Baby when we get
To our final destination
We're gonna' have ourselves
A lover's vacation
Bubble bath
Tub for two
Drinking wine
Ain't we cool
Got a buzz
High on love
Rub-a-dub
Don't disturb
On the door
Lingerie
On the floor
Come here girl
Rock my world
All night long
A full tank of gas
And an R&B station
We're gonna' drive away
From life's frustration
Baby when we get
To our final destination
We're gonna' have ourselves
A lover's vacation
Holding hands
In the sand
We're gonna' get ourselves
A Coppertone tan
With a full tank of gas
And an R&B station
We're gonna' drive away
From life's frustration
Baby when we get
To our final destination
We're gonna' have ourselves
A lover's vacation
Yeah we're gonna' have ourselves
A lover's vacation

If I Can Get Over Her

I had a puppy love crush
When I was ten years old
Her name was Lisa Janine
She lived across the road
I caught her with a Cub Scout
In a little blue hat
They were pushing each other
On the swing out back
I remember how it almost killed me
How could she do me like that
I never thought I'd be the same
But now I look back and I laugh
If I can get over her
I can get over you
It's just gonna' take some time
These things they always do
Even though she left scars on my heart
Time has healed the wounds
If I can get over her
I can get over you
I took my high school sweetheart
To the senior prom
She went off to college
And I stayed on the farm
I had a broken heart
And some fences to mend
I knew I'd never hold her again
But I saw her today in the paper
Smiling in her wedding dress
I sent her a card and a blender
And I wished her all the best
If I can get over her
I can get over you
It's just gonna' take some time
These things they always do
Even though she left scars on my heart
Time has healed the wounds
If I can get over her
I can get over you
Even though she left scars on my heart
Time has healed the wounds
If I can get over her
I can get over you

I Want You To Love On Me

I left a note on your door
Saying, "See you tonight"
Please wear that dress
That you know I like
We'll go anywhere
That you wanna' go
But before I take you home
I want you to love on me
Cause I wanna' love on you
Parked on the overlook
Outside of town
In an old Cadillac
With the top rolled down
Soft music playing on the radio
Just some clichés to let you know
I want you to love on me
Cause I wanna' love on you
Now you're taking me by surprise
There's a burning hunger in your eyes
You say the words
I been waiting to hear
In my ear
I want you to love on me, ohhh
Cause I wanna' love on you, oh yeah
Now that I know what it's like
To hold you close
I just want you to know
That from this moment on
Girl I want you to love on me, ohhh
Cause I wanna' love on you
Oh yes I do
Girl I want you to love on me, ohhh
Cause I want to love on you forever

Are You With Me?

Out in the middle
Of nowhere to go
Here we are parked on a
Gravel road
There's ice in the cooler
And there's fire in your kiss
I guess the sky's the limit
On a night like this
Oh are you with me baby?
Are you thinking like me?
When you lay down at night
Do you see me in your dreams?
I'm standing on the edge now
But before I take this leap
Whoa, I need to know
Are you with me baby?
You make me laugh when the
World closes in on me
When I'm in your arms
That's right where I wanna' be
Before I fall any farther
Baby there's just one thing
If I give you my heart
What's in it for me?
Oh are you with me baby?
Are you thinking like me?
When you lay down at night
Do you see me in your dreams?
I'm standing on the edge now
But before I take this leap
Whoa I need to know
Are you with me baby?
Life is short
But the road is long
I just need to know
That I won't go alone
Oh are you with me baby?
Are you thinking like me?
When you lay down at night
Do you see me in your dreams?
I'm standing on the edge now
But before I take this leap
Whoa I need to know
Are you with me baby?

If You Can't Love Me Forever

I know you love him
You have for some time
And he holds a part of you
That is no longer mine
And I know it's too late
To change your mind
I just came by for something
To remember you by
If you can't love me forever
Love me right now
Light this old flame
One more time
Before you put it out
If you'll just let me in
I'll let myself out
If you can't love me forever
Love me right now
This is the last time
I'll tell you goodbye
And I'll ask no more of you
After tonight
So once more for the old times
Would you hold me close?
Let's make this last moment
Go by real slow
If you can't love me forever
Love me right now
Light this old flame
One more time
Before you put it out
If you'll just let me in
I'll let myself out
If you can't love me forever
Love me right now
If you can't love me forever
Just love me right now
Just love me right now
One more time
Just love me right now

That's A Lie

How long have I known you?
I think of you as my best friend
You've hear accusations
About me and your girlfriend
I can't believe you don't trust me
After all that we've been through
I've got a heart and a conscience
And I'd never do that to you
Yeah that's a lie
I didn't sleep with your woman
We stayed awake all night
I'm telling the truth
I heard her whispering your name boy
While I was holding her tight
Everybody tells you
That I am the backdoor man
Sneaking round stealing love
Wherever I can
Well that's just gossip and rumors
Yeah, you need to hear it from me
Yes you do
I'm gonna' look you straight in the eyes
Cause the truth will set me free
Yeah that's a lie
I didn't sleep with your woman
We stayed awake all night
I'm telling the truth
I heard her whispering your name boy
While I was holding her tight

I Don't Wanna' Know

A long way from home
While drinking a beer
A beautiful stranger
Whispered in my ear
Come up to room 307
And don't tell a soul
I've heard forbidden fruit is sweeter
But I don't wanna' know
She asked me to dance
She didn't see much harm
But if you dance with the devil
She'll turn on her charm
These are some dangerous circumstances
I think I should go
I'm tempted wondering what it'd
Be like to hold her
But I don't wanna' know
I don't wanna' know what it's like
To cross that line
I don't ever wanna' see my baby crying
I could keep it a secret
It would never show
But what would it cost my heart
I don't wanna' know
There's a three-room house
Six-hundred miles away
With a fenced-in yard
Where my children can play
And the angel of my dreams
God I love her so
What I would lose to abuse her trust
I don't wanna' know
I don't wanna' know what it's like
To live a lie
Even if she couldn't tell
By looking in my eyes
I could keep it a secret
It would never show
But what would it cost my heart
I don't wanna' know
I don't wanna' know what it's like
To cross that line
I don't ever wanna' see my baby crying
I could keep it a secret
It would never show
But what would it cost my heart
I don't wanna' know
Whoa I don't wanna' know

I've Got Nothin To Show For It

Girl I've loved you since day one
You've been inside my dreams
I laid myself aside
To give you everything
I spend my money
And I give you my time cause
That's what I wanna' do
But when you leave me alone
I'm facing the bitter truth
Whoa I've got nothing to show for it
Sometimes I wonder why
I even go for it
Girl I love you so much
Sometimes I forget
That I've got nothing to show for it
It's not that I'm ungrateful
We've had a few good times
Yeah for a while you had me convinced
You were really mine
You whispered promises in my ear yeah
You set my soul on fire
But now I know you're nothing more Than a beautiful liar
Whoa I've got nothing to show for it
Sometimes I wonder why
I even go for it
Girl I love you so much
Sometimes I forget
That I've got nothing to show for it
Sometimes I feel like I'm
Drinking from an empty glass
I guess it's true when they say
Nice guys finish last, oh whoa
Whoa I've got nothing to show for it
Sometimes I wonder why
I even go for it
Girl I love you so much
Sometimes I forget
That I've got nothing to show for it

I Must Have Been High

Love, righteous and real
A dream I could touch
Trust I could feel
I had it all and I threw it away
With some stupid move
I wish I could take back today
Was I lost, was I blind
Baby I couldn't see
What losing you would do to mebaby
I must have been high
To let you walk away
To let you say goodbye
I must have high
Darling I'll never know
How could I let you go?
I must have been high
Stoned out of my mind
Time has opened my eyes
These empty arms
Have made my heart wise
I'll never find
A better lover and friend
I'm ashamed to admit
What a fool I have been
And I know I've got no right
To be begging you to come back to me
I can only plead insanity
Baby mercy baby
I must have been high
To let you walk away
To let you say goodbye
I must have high
Darling I'll never know
How could I let you go?
I must have been high
I must have been high
To let you walk away
To let you say goodbye
I must have high
Darling I'll never know
How could I let you go?
I must have been high

She Won't Cheat On Us

Friend I had to call you
I want to ease your mind
Just in case you're thinking
She's been stepping out of line
She won't cheat on us
She won't cheat on us
Last night when I held her
She called me by your name
Well that just proves she loves me
She loves you just the same
She won't cheat on us
She won't cheat on us
So rest your mind
She's not the runaround kind
Her heart is true
She just loves me and you
She gives us fifty-fifty
Unconditional love
No she won't cheat on us
Well I got a little worried
When she didn't come home
So I just dialed your number
And she picked up the phone
She won't cheat on us
She won't cheat on us
She's looking for a good man
She wants to settle down
Well she ain't made her mind up
But she's narrowed it down
She won't cheat on us
She won't cheat on us
So rest your mind
She's not the runaround kind
Her heart is true
She just loves me and you
She gives us fifty-fifty
Unconditional love
No she won't cheat on us
She won't cheat on us

Almost What You Need

You smile at me
But your green eyes
Never linger
You turn away
You talk to me
And twirl your long hair
With your finger
I'm blown away
And you don't realize
When you walk away
I die inside
Now I'm missing out
On all of your love
I came close but
Just not close enough
I knew going in
There was no guarantee
Just my luck
I'm almost what you need
When you feel down
And all alone
You always call me and
I make you laugh
You swear you love me
Heart and soul
Just like the brother
You never had
But whatever I do
I always end up
Without you girl
Now I'm missing out
On all of your love
I came close but
Just not close enough
I knew going in
There was no guarantee
Just my luck
I'm almost what you need
Now I'm missing out
On all of your love
I came close but
Just not close enough
I knew going in
There was no guarantee
Just my luck
I'm almost what you need

Love Will Find You

Somewhere tonight
All alone
Somebody sits
By a quiet telephone
Waiting on someone
That ain't coming back
Hurting themselves
I used to be like that
I wasted time
There was a price I paid
For not believing
That a season had changed
Finally I knew
What we had was gone
So I said goodbye
And I moved on
You're never gonna' find
Something new
When you're hanging on to
Something old
If you love somebody
Just set 'em free
If they don't come back
Just let 'em go
It's so hard to do, it's so hard
But don't worry, love will find you
She was an addiction
Much more than a phase
Just like a hard drug
I needed in my veins
And I started shaking
When I tried to quit
Cold sweats at midnight
But I got over it
And now I am ready
To love again
I've opened my heart
And I've let you in
When I'm in your arms
I realize
Love can move mountains
When you leave the past behind
You're never gonna' find
Something new
When you're hanging on to
Something old
If you love somebody
Just set 'em free
If they don't come back
Just let 'em go
It's so hard to do, it's so hard
But don't worry, love will find you

That's A Lie
I Don't Wanna' Know
I've Got Nothin To Show For It

She Won't Cheat On Us
Almost What You Need
