It was a lost love: bitter, young and long ago
I don't know who or what she went through all that I know
Is there's something so broken
There's something so broken
There's something so broken about her poor heart
I would hear music every time she called for me
Any crusade I would have made to set her free
But there's something so broken
There's something so broken
There's something so broken about her poor heart
I'm gonna leave her to cry on her own someday
I'd lie to myself but, truthfully, all I wanted to do was stay, stay stay
'Cause I need her love
And it tears my world apart
That there's something so broken
There's something so broken
There's something so broken about her poor heart

Room To Run

When I was only a boy, I needed room to run
Chasing my favorite adventures, burning my eyes in the sun
Too many high expectations entangled me right from the start
I promised myself I'd find the room to run
Though I had nowhere to go, I kept running all my life
I bet it hurt my father; I know it killed my wife
Never knew why making room for myself always hurt someone
It doesn't matter now--I got the room to run
It seemed like we'd been together far less than eighteen years today
As these last precious moments fleeted away
**My baby flies away**
Watching her plane disappear, I felt such emptiness
Memories crowded my mind: I made mistakes I guess
I could have begged her to stay for the sake of my breaking heart
But she is so young; she needs the room to run
She needs the room to run
She needs the room to run.

Dear Louise

Dear Louise, please come to your bedroom window
I'm ready to confess the things I always hoped you'd somehow guess
Dear Louise
O Louise, all my life I have been waiting
To sail my boat away but I will stay if you want me to stay
Say so, please!
O Lucky Stars! Finally, someone I can talk to all night!
O Dear Louise, play me a song and I'll sing along with you
And if my voice breaks I won't try to hide it
I have never felt quite as excited as tonight, O Dear Louise
I seems you're not at home this evening (*he sighs*)
I'm not upset with you; I know you've better things by far to do
Than climb the trees with me O Dear Louise.

Better Every Day

I feel better every day
I feel better every day
I feel better every day so long to the years fighting back my tears
I'm not waiting on your call
Hardly think of you at all
Hardly notice how I miss your arms and finger tips
Your name on my lips
And if a streetlight disturbs my sleep tonight,
I'll be glad to clear the dreams of you from my mind
And maybe I'll wake up smiling in the morn
Feeling glad to have been born
I feel better every day but nights are so sad
I feel better, but I still feel bad
Some old memory's always in my way every day.
