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

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

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

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.

Wish I had an Angel

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
