Texas Hills 03:26
I love the summer in the Texas Hills There ain't no way I can pay my bills Though, no gas in the car means noplace to go So put your red dress on and the radio Here in the city, well, ain't that sweet They got a ride I can borrow under every streetlamp Back at the hills, we like to take it slow Put on your favorite song while we're laying low Singing Ain't nothing better going on in town I’d rather be alone than hang'n around It’s a hot night in the valley below When you put your red dress on and the radio They kill the light bugs for lawns to mow Here in the city, they wage control But, back at the hills, we let the grass just grow We need the camouflage when we're toe to toe Sing'n Ain't nothing better going on in town I’d rather be alone than hang'n around It takes a hot night to make a firefly glow So, put your red dress on and the radio We dance to Cash and we sway with Cohen Singing Hallelujah everybody's knowing That man in black ge might of saved his soul If he saw that red dress girl Heaven told me so Ain't nothing better going on in town I’d rather be alone than hang'n around It takes a hot night to make a firefly glow So, put your red dress on and the radio We'll make a hot night in the valley below So, put your red dress on and the radio

Big Time 04:12
Get down on my knees and pray God, I love a Saturday Someone to hold Finer than gold in a highrise Some people always get their way God knows I had a dream to play But every road kept leading me home For the long ride And up in New York, they got it all figured out Selling a world, they know nothing about Brother LA was too far from home I left the Londoner on the phone While I was dreaming In the ancient lights Betting on a look in your eye I laid it all on the line Your heart and mine For the big time Blowing like the lonely wind Through years I'll never know again Why beg for a day When memories grave Is a long life Some people they just won't let go Oh, life is like a river flows Through every turn That's where we learned how to hold tight Up in New York, they got it all figured out Selling a world, they know nothing about Brother LA was reading the palms To lonely Londoners on the phone While I was dreaming In the ancient lights Betting on a look in your eye I laid it all on the line Your heart and mine For the big time Play the big time I'm still dreaming In those ancient lights Betting on that look in your eye I lay it all on the line Your heart and mine For the big time I laid it all on the line Your heart and mine For the big time I hit the big time

One big heart When two hearts mend Love will last forever if we hold on till the end One step more Is how we began Walking home together As a lover and a friend Put your arms around me Don’t it feel better baby Bowed down and heavy I’ll make you feel better All the waves of our love could carry Me With your arms around me I’ll make you feel better One big heart Is one big chance To write the song that’s playing In the lonely lover's dance Some days we’ll fall Then we'll wake up and dream love will live forever If we only learn to sing Put your arms around me Don’t it feel better baby Bowed down and heavy I’ll make you feel better All the waves of our love Could carry Me With your arms around me I’ll make you feel better Some years we’ll crawl And some nights we’ll scream But one big heart It will carry you and me The love that lives forever It will carry you and me One big heart

We were Wild 03:41
There are stories A million I’m sure That they sold you On their big billboard And I don’t want to bore you With this o’l world gone wrong I dreamed we could sing Like we were young Fall in love for a smile Dance like children round a fire For a moment we are wild There are stories In a billion hearts Some fairytales Some twisted plots But I don’t want to drag you up on some empty plateau I dreamed I could sing, to your young soul Fall in love for a smile Run like children down the aisles And For a moment, we are wild We’re in a desperate moment The headlines shout Friends taking sides In the final bout And I can’t even picture No, Peace on earth I still gonna to sing, no matter what it’s worth And Fall in love with your smile Laugh like children for ahwile for a moment We are wild.

I wish I had an angel Up on the shelf I'd tell her all my secrets When I talk to myself A genie in a bottle Oh, that ain't my style I wish I had an angel With a beautiful smile Sell all my trophies for a little bit of luck Racing for glories but then I get stuck I ain't asking to fly like a bird on the wind I wish I had an angel or a really good friend If I had an angel We'd go out to the beach Sail across the ocean On those nine-foot wings That genie in a bottle He'd be floating in my wine 'Cause if I had an angle I'd have a really good time Sell all my trophies for a little bit of luck Racing for glories but then I get stuck I ain't asking to fly like a bird on the wing Oh, no I just wish I had an angel Or a really good friend I wish I had an angle Or a really good friend I wish I had an angle Up on the shelf I'd tell all those secrets Even the ones I won't tell to myself That genie in a bottle I'd just ask him one wish I'd say, I wish I had an angel For a beautiful kiss Sell all my trophies for a little bit of luck Racing for glories but then I get stuck I ain't asking to fly like o'l Gabrielle did Oh, no I just wish I had an angel Or a really good friend I wish I had an angle Or a really good friend This is how I talk to that angle I'd say Please, Please Baby, please
