NATURAL LOVE
I believe love should be simply beautiful
If your love for me requires therapy
Yours ain't the love I need
I need a natural love, a natural love
Don't want to fuss and fight
argue who's wrong or right
That's not what I call love
I need a girl who'll understand
Accept me as I am
With all my kinks and flaws
I need a natural love, a natural love
Natural love fits like a comfortable glove
Don't take no work at all
I need a natural, I need a natural love
Come on and squeeze me tight
Stay with me through the night
Do what comes naturally
By the mornin' time perhaps we'll find
We're what each other needs
I need a natural love, a natural love
I believe love should be simply beautiful
If your love for me requires therapy
Yours ain't the love I need
I need a natural love, a natural love
Don't want to fuss and fight
argue who's wrong or right
That's not what I call love
I need a girl who'll understand
Accept me as I am
With all my kinks and flaws
I need a natural love, a natural love
Natural love fits like a comfortable glove
Don't take no work at all
I need a natural, I need a natural love
Come on and squeeze me tight
Stay with me through the night
Do what comes naturally
By the mornin' time perhaps we'll find
We're what each other needs
I need a natural love, a natural love
NOTHIN' BETTER THAN THIS
I've been ponderin' what sets my girl apart
Wonderin' why I believe this one won't break my heart
You see I've lost at love before
More than just a time or two
But it looks like I've changed my luck
And found a love that's true
I believe our love is true
Even though every other love before
Started out like this
This time I've got somethin' more
A bit more experience
Honestly I never wanted to find
A love worth fightin' for
Somewhere in the back of my mind
I hoped for so much more
And this love's worth livin' for
I've been ponderin' what sets my girl apart
Wonderin' why I believe this one won't break my heart
You see I've lost at love before
More than just a time or two
But it looks like I've changed my luck
And found a love that's true
I believe our love is true
Even though every other love before
Started out like this
This time I've got somethin' more
A bit more experience
Honestly I never wanted to find
A love worth fightin' for
Somewhere in the back of my mind
I hoped for so much more
And this love's worth livin' for
ALL I EVER WANTED
All I ever wanted was a little understanding
That's all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was a little peace and
tenderness
That's all I ever wanted
Instead of understanding I got questions
and accusations
Instead of peace and tenderness I got my
daily dose of verbal abuse
All I ever wanted was to make you happy
That's all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was our home to be a
sanctuary
That's all I ever wanted
Instead of bringing happiness
I brought stress and aggravation
Instead of sanctuary I got another domestic
dispute
Now after all this time, I'm gone, and I've got
news, I'm not comin' back
'Cause if I had to live through this again
I'm not sure that I could live through that
All I ever wanted was a little understanding
That's all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was a little peace and
tenderness
That's all I ever wanted
Instead of understanding I got questions
and accusations
Instead of peace and tenderness I got my
daily dose of verbal abuse
All I ever wanted was to make you happy
That's all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was our home to be a
sanctuary
That's all I ever wanted
Instead of bringing happiness
I brought stress and aggravation
Instead of sanctuary I got another domestic
dispute
Now after all this time, I'm gone, and I've got
news, I'm not comin' back
'Cause if I had to live through this again
I'm not sure that I could live through that
TIME KEEPS TICKIN' AWAY
The road of my life's growing shorter
Every step that I take
But to simply sit down and let life pass me by
Is the biggest mistake I can make
Perhaps my mistakes should be fewer
Perhaps I should just play it safe
But so far there's only one thing I am sure of
My time here keeps tickin' away
I once knew a wise man, a mentor, a friend
He never quit learnin', lived large to the end
At the time he was taken it seemed much too soon
But the lessons he left are for me and for you
The road of your life's growing shorter with every step that you take
But to simply sit down and let life pass you by is the biggest mistake you can make
Perhaps your mistakes shoud be fewer
Perhaps you should just play it safe
But so for there's only one thing I am sure of
Your time here keeps ticking away
We've got to let go of the things that we've got
We can't take 'em with us, and we just get one shot
So be true to yourself not to something you're not
You don't know when the curtain will fall
And one thing for certain, there's no curtain call
The road of our life's growing shorter with every step that we take
But to simply sit down and let life pass us by is the biggest mistake we can make
I don't care if my mistakes become fewer
And you won't find me playin' it safe
'Cause so far there's only one thing I am sure of
My time here keeps ticking away
The road of my life's growing shorter
Every step that I take
But to simply sit down and let life pass me by
Is the biggest mistake I can make
Perhaps my mistakes should be fewer
Perhaps I should just play it safe
But so far there's only one thing I am sure of
My time here keeps tickin' away
I once knew a wise man, a mentor, a friend
He never quit learnin', lived large to the end
At the time he was taken it seemed much too soon
But the lessons he left are for me and for you
The road of your life's growing shorter with every step that you take
But to simply sit down and let life pass you by is the biggest mistake you can make
Perhaps your mistakes shoud be fewer
Perhaps you should just play it safe
But so for there's only one thing I am sure of
Your time here keeps ticking away
We've got to let go of the things that we've got
We can't take 'em with us, and we just get one shot
So be true to yourself not to something you're not
You don't know when the curtain will fall
And one thing for certain, there's no curtain call
The road of our life's growing shorter with every step that we take
But to simply sit down and let life pass us by is the biggest mistake we can make

And you won't find me playin' it safe
'Cause so far there's only one thing I am sure of
My time here keeps ticking away
NOTHIN' BETTER THAN THIS (cont.)
I see the love in the way she looks at me
I hear the love when she speaks
I feel the love when she touches me
I taste the love in her kiss
There's nothin' better than this
Call me optimistic or a hopeless romantic
But I'm not the only fool who's searched the planet
Lookin' for a match, body, soul, and mind
Feels like I've got it right this time
I'm hers and she is mine
I see the love in the way she looks at me
I hear the love when she speaks
I feel the love when she touches me
I taste the love in her kiss
There's nothin' better than this
I see the love in the way she looks at me
I hear the love when she speaks
I feel the love when she touches me
I taste the love in her kiss
There's nothin' better than this
Call me optimistic or a hopeless romantic
But I'm not the only fool who's searched the planet
Lookin' for a match, body, soul, and mind
Feels like I've got it right this time
I'm hers and she is mine
I see the love in the way she looks at me
I hear the love when she speaks
I feel the love when she touches me
I taste the love in her kiss
There's nothin' better than this
HE SAID NOTHIN'
He said nothin', just casually smiled
He said nothin', as she sat for awhile
How was she to know he was just
shy and afraid, too afraid to tell her
So he just said nothin'
He said nothin' as she shared her dreams
But he said nothin', so to her it seemed
He couldn't car less about her plans and
schemes, he didn't tell her different
He just said nothin'
He said nothin', but he gave his heart away
Then he said nothin' as he watched her
walk away
How was she to know he was just shy and
afraid, too afraid to tell her
So he just said nothin'
So many times he should have swallowed his pride
Should have faced his fears and put them firmly aside
Should have took that woman, looked her right in the eye
And told her that he loved her
but he just said nothin'
Well the days turned into weeks, turned into months, turned into years
He watched her from a distance, he watched her through his tears
Things would have been different if he'd conquered his fears
And told her that he loved her
But he just said nothin'
There comes a time we've got to swallow our pride
We've gotta face our fears and put them firmly aside
When you find a special someone look 'em right in the eye and tell 'em that you love 'em
Don't just say nothin'
Because the days turn into weeks, turn into months, turn into years
We all need someone to share the laughter and the tears
When you find a special someone look 'em right in the eye and tell 'em that you love 'em
Don't just say nothin'
He said nothin', just casually smiled
He said nothin', as she sat for awhile
How was she to know he was just
shy and afraid, too afraid to tell her
So he just said nothin'
He said nothin' as she shared her dreams
But he said nothin', so to her it seemed
He couldn't car less about her plans and
schemes, he didn't tell her different
He just said nothin'
He said nothin', but he gave his heart away
Then he said nothin' as he watched her
walk away
How was she to know he was just shy and
afraid, too afraid to tell her
So he just said nothin'
So many times he should have swallowed his pride
Should have faced his fears and put them firmly aside
Should have took that woman, looked her right in the eye
And told her that he loved her
but he just said nothin'
Well the days turned into weeks, turned into months, turned into years
He watched her from a distance, he watched her through his tears
Things would have been different if he'd conquered his fears
And told her that he loved her

There comes a time we've got to swallow our pride
We've gotta face our fears and put them firmly aside
When you find a special someone look 'em right in the eye and tell 'em that you love 'em
Don't just say nothin'
