I knew who he was
When I took his name
But somehow knowin'
Is just not the same late at night
He knows the danger
But he does what he does
He calls it duty
But I call it love
So here I am
While he’s gone
To some foreign land
And I cry
'Cause I’m alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he won’t come home
But I’m sleeping with the telephone
The yellow ribbon on my neighbor’s gate
Always reminds me that someone’s awake
Just like me
I hear the sirens
And I watch the news
He laughs and leaves with his gun
And his blue uniform
And I pray God keeps him safe from harm
And I cry
'Cause I’m alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he won’t come home
But I’m sleeping with the telephone
I loose him in my darkest dreams
And my blood runs cold and my heart skips a beat
So I get up; I can’t take anymore
Sometimes I hate how much I love him
But everyday I love him more
And I try not to think he won’t come home
But I’m sleeping with the telephone
Something awakes me from where he should be
I reach for him; the telephone rings

Red Umbrella - Faith Hill
1st Verse
Sometimes life can get a little dark
I'm sure I've got bruises on my heart
Here come the black clouds full of pain
Yeah, you can break away without the chains
Pre Chorus
Your love is like a red umbrella
Walk the streets like Cinderella
Everyone can see it on my face
Chorus
(So) let it rain
It's pourin' all around
Let it fall
(No) it ain't gonna drown me
After all
I'm gonna be okay
(So) let it rain
(Oh, let it rain)
(Let it fall)
(I'm gonna be okay)
(So let it rain)
2nd Verse
You can wear your sorrow like an old raincoat
You can save your tears in a bottle made of gold
But the glitter on the sidewalk always shines
Yeah, even God needs to cry sometimes
Pre Chorus
Your love is like a red umbrella
Always there to make me better
When my broken dreams
Are fallin' from the sky
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
Let it wash my tears away
Tomorrow's another day
Yeah
(Chorus Out)

Just To Hear You Say That You Love Me - Faith Hill feat. Tim McGraw
If I could win your heart
If you'd let me in your heart
I'd be so happy, baby mm
Just for these arms to be
Holding you close to me
There's nothing in this world I won't try
No limit to what I'd do
to make you mine, cause
I'd climb right up to the sky
I'd take down the stars
Just to be in your arms, baby
I'd go and capture the moon
that's what I would do
Just to hear you say that you love me
Just to hear you say that you love me
If I could taste your kiss
There'd be no sweeter gift
Heaven could offer, baby (oh baby)
I want to be the one (I want to be the one)
Willing to give you love
I'd walk across this world just to be
Close to you 'cause I want you
close to me, yeah
I'd climb right up to the sky
I'd take down the stars
Just to be in your arms, baby
I'd go and capture the moon
that's what I would do
Just to hear you say that you love me
Just to hear you say that you love me
For the rest of your life
(For the rest of your life)
Love me for the rest of all time
(Oh baby, baby)
Just say the word
And I'll give you my world
There's nothing I won't do
Baby, Just to be with you
I'd climb right up to the sky
Take down the stars
Just to be in your arms, baby
I'd go and capture the moon
That's what I would do
Just to hear you say that you love me
Just to hear you say that you love me, baby
Just to hear you say that you love me
Oh, I need to hear you say that you love me, baby
Just to hear you say that you love me
Just say you love me
Just say you need me
Just to hear you say that you love me
Like We Never Loved At All - Faith Hill
You never looked so good
As you did last night
Underneath the city lights
There, walking with your friend
Laughing at the moon
I swear you looked right through me
But I'm still living with your goodbye
And you're just going on with your life
[Chorus]
How can you just walk on by
Without one tear in your eye
Dont you have the slightest feelings left for me?
Maybe thats just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all
You, I hear you're doing fine
Seems like you're doing well
As far as I can tell
Time, is leaving us behind
Another week has passed
And still I haven't laughed yet
So tell me what your secret is
To letting go, letting go like you did
[Chorus]
How can you just walk on by
Without one tear in your eye
Dont you have the slightest feelings left for me?
Maybe thats just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all
Did you forget the magic?
Did you forget the passion, oh
And did you ever miss me?
And long to kiss me
Oh baby, baby
Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all

Wild One - Faith Hill
They said, "Change your clothes,"
she said, "No, I won't."
They said, "Comb your hair,"
she said, "Some kids don't."
And her parents dreams went up in smoke.
They said, "You can't leave,"
she said, "Yes I will."
They said, "Don't see him,"
she said, "His name is Bill."
She's on a roll and it's all uphill.
She's a wild one, with an angel's face.
She's a woman, a child, and a state of grace.
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
he said, "You can be anything you want to be...."
She's a wild one running free.
She loves rock and roll
they said "It's Satan's tongue."
She thinks they're too old,
they think she's too young
and the battle lines are clearly drawn.
She's a wild one, with an angel's face.
She's a woman,a child, and a state of grace.
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
he said, "You can be anything you want to be...."
She's a wild one running free.
She has future plans and dreams at night.
When they tell her 'life is hard' she says,
"That's all right." Yeah.
She's a wild one, with an angel's face.
She's a woman, a child, and a state of grace.
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
he said, "You can be anything you want to be...."
She's a wild one, with an angel's face.
She's a woman, a child, and a state of grace.
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
he said, "You can be anything you want to be...."
She's a wild one running free.
Let Me Let Go - Faith Hill
I thought it was over, baby
We said our goodbyes
But I can't go a day
Without your face
Going through my mind
In fact, not a single minute
Passes without you in it
Your voice, your touch
Memories of your love
Are with me all of the time
[Chorus]
Let me let go, baby
Let me let go
If this is for the best
Why are you still in my heart
Are you still in my soul
Let me let go
I talked to you the other day
Looks like you made your escape
You put us behind
No matter how i try
I can't do the same
Let me let go, baby
Let me let go
It just isn't right
I've been two thousand miles
Down a dead-end road
Let me let go
Let me let go, darlin', won't you
I just gotta know
If this is for the best
Why are you still in my heart
Are you still in my soul
Let me let go
The lights of this strange city are shining
But they don't hold no fascination for me
I try to find the bright side baby
But everywhere I look
Everywhere I turn
You're all I see
Let me...
Let me let go, baby won't you
Let me let go
It just isn't right
I've been two thousand miles
Down a dead-end road
Oh let me let go, darlin', won't you
I just gotta know
If this is for the best
Why are you still in my heart
You're still in my soul
Let me let go, why don't you
Let me let go
Let me let go
You're Still Here - Faith Hill
Thought I saw you today,
you were standingin the sun
and you turned away,
and I knew it couldn't be but my heart believed.
Oh it seems like there is something every day.
How could you be so far away,
when you're still here.
When I need you you're not hard to find.
You're still here.
I can see you in my baby's eyes, and the laugh and cry.
You're still here.
I had a dream last night. That you came to me on silver wings
and light and I flew away with you in painless sky
and I woke up wondering what was real.
Is it what you see and touch or what you feel.
Cause you're still here.
Oh you're everywhere we've ever been.
Oh you're still here.
I heard you in a stranger's laugh,
and I hung around to hear him laugh again.
Just once again.
Oh thought I saw you today,
you were standing in the sun
and you turned away. Ohh awayyy..
But I Will - Faith Hill
Remember when I said the next time would be the last time
That time came this mornin' when you came in
You always had a line to change my mind
So I guess you thought I'd just let you break my heart again
I don't want to stop lovin' you…but I will
I don't like wakin' up alone…but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go…but I will
I could write a book on the innocent looks you're giving me
You've got one for every story you tell
I've seen it all and I'm not gonna fall
For those make believe tears
So, darlin' I will try to make it clear
I don't want to stop lovin' you…but I will
I don't like wakin' up alone…but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go…but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go…but I will
The Secret Of Life - Faith Hill
Couple of guys sittin' 'round drinking
down at the Starlight Bar.
One of em' says, "You know I've been thinking..."
Other one says, "That won't get you too far."
He says, "This is your life, and welcome to it.
It's just working and drinking and dreams.
Ad on TV says 'Just Do It.'
Hell if I know what that means."
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee,
the secret of life is keep your eye on the ball.
The secret of life is a beautiful woman;
Marilyn stares down from the barroom wall.
"You and me, we're just a couple of zeros,
just a couple down an' outs.
Movie stars and football heroes
whadda they got to be unhappy about? Yeah..."
So they turn to the bartender,
"Sam, what do you think,
what's the key that unlocks that door?"
Sam don't say nothin', just wipes off the bar
and he pours them a couple more.
Secret of life is in Sam's martinis,
the secret of life is in Marilyn's eyes.
The secret of life is in Monday Night Football,
Rolling Stones' records, mom's apple pie.
Sam looks up from his Sunday paper
says "Boys you're on the wrong track.
The secret of life is their ain't no secret,
and you don't get your money back." Hey.
The secret of life is gettin' up early,
the secret of life is stayin' up late.
The secret of life is try not to hurry,
but don't wait.
Don't wait.
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee,
the secret of life is keep your eye on the ball.
The secret of life is to find the right woman,
the secret of life is nothing at all.
(Oh it's nothin' at all.)
The secret of life...
Couple guys sittin' 'round drinking
down at the Starlight Bar.
One of 'em says, "You know I've been thinking..."
Other one says "That won't get you too far."
That won't get you too far.
Take Me As I Am - Faith Hill
Baby don't turn out the light
I wanna see you look at me
Whisper only truth tonight
Not just promises and empty fantasies
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (strong heart), a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
Baby I need for you to know
Just exactly how I feel
Firey passions come and go
I'd trade a million pretty words for one touch that is real
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (strong heart), a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (strong heart), a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
(x2)
I don't need a bed of roses
`Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (strong heart), a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
From someone with a strrong heart(strong heart),a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
You Can't Lose Me - Faith Hill
A little girl a little small for her age
A little too slow for the field day race
Momma’s waitin at the finish line
And wipes the teardrops from her eyes
She says, you did just fine honey that’s okay
Sometimes life is just that way
You’re gonna lose the race
From time to time but you’re always gonna find
You can't lose me
Bet your life I am here and I will always be
Just a wish away
Wherever you go, no matter how far
My love is where you are
You won't be lost if you believe
You can't lose me
Momma used to say, girl it won't be long
When it is time to go out on your own
Chase your dreams, find your place in life
I know you'll do just fine
When that day finally came
There were things she needed to but could not say
So I whispered softy as I wiped the tears from Momma’s eyes
You can't lose me
Bet your life I am here and I will always be
Just a wish away
Wherever you go, no matter how far
My love is where you are
You won't be lost if you believe
You can't lose me
Wherever you go, no matter how far
My love is where you are
You won't be lost if you believe
You can't lose me
No you can't lose me
Wherever you go
My love is where you are
Oh you can't lose me
No you can't lose me
Breathe - Faith Hill
I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way
I watch the sunlight dance across you face, and I've...
Never been this swept away
All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze
When I'm lyin' wrapped up in your arms
The whole world just fades away, the only thing I hear
Is the beating of your heart
[Chorus]
'Cause I can feel you breathe, it's washin' over me
And suddenly I'm meltin' into you
There's nothin' left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be...
Caught up in the touch, a slow and steady rush
Baby isnt that the way that love's supposed to be?
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe
In a way I know my heart is waking up
As all the walls come tumbling down
Closer then I've ever felt before, and I know, and you know
There's no need for words right now
[Chorus]
'Cause I can feel you breathe, it's washin' over me
And suddenly I'm meltin' into you
There's nothin' left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be...
Caught up in the touch, a slow and steady rush
Baby isnt that the way that love's supposed to be?
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe
Caught up in the touch, a slow and steady rush
Baby isn't that the way that love's supposed to be?
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe
I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way...
This Kiss - Faith Hill
I don't want another heartbreak,
I don't need another turn to cry.
No, I don't want to learn the hard way
Baby,'Hello.' Oh no, 'Goodbye.'
But you got me like a rocket shootin' straight across the sky.
It's the way you love me,
It's a feelin' like this.
It's centrifugal motion,
it's that perpetual bliss.
It's that pivotal moment.
It's 'Ah, impossible.'
This kiss, this kiss.
Unstoppable.
This kiss, this kiss.
Cinderella said to Snow White
'How does love get so off course?
Oh, all I wanted was a white knight with a good heart,
soft touch, fast horse.'
Ride me off into the sunset, baby I'm forever yours.
It's the way you love me,
it's a feelin' like this.
It's centrifugal motion,
It's perpetual bliss
It's that pivotal moment.
It's 'Ah, unthinkable.'
This kiss, this kiss.
Unsinkable.
This kiss, this kiss.
You can kiss me in the moonlight on a rooftop under the sky.
Oh, you can kiss me with the windows open while the rain comes pouring inside.
Oh, kiss me in sweet slow motion,
let's let everything slide.
You've got me floating, you've got me flying.
It's the way you love me,
it's a feelin' like this.
It's centrifugal motion,
It's perpetual bliss.
It's that pivotal moment.
It's 'Ah, subliminal.'
This kiss, this kiss.
It's criminal.
This kiss, this kiss.
It's the way you love me baby,
it's the way you love me darling, yeah.
It's the way you love me,
it's a feelin' like this.
It's centripetal motion,
It's perpetual bliss.
It's that pivotal moment.
It's 'Ah, subliminal.'
This kiss, this kiss.
It's criminal.
This kiss, this kiss.
It's the way you love me baby,
It's the way you love me darling, yeah.

Let's Make Love - Faith Hill feat. Tim Mcgraw
Faith:
Baby I've been drifting away
And dreaming all day
Of holding you, touching you
Only thing I wanna do is be with you,
As close to you
As I can be.
(Chorus)
Let's make love all night long,
until all our strength is gone
Hold on tight, just let go,
I wanna feel you in my soul,
Until the sun comes up.
Let's make love
(Oh, baby)
Tim:
Do you know what you do to me?
Everything inside of me
Is wanting you, and needing you
I'm so in love with you
Look in my eyes, let's get lost tonight
In each other.

Mississippi Girl - Faith Hill
Yeah
Well, it's a long way from Star, Mississippi
To the big stage I'm singing on tonight
And sometimes the butterflies still get me
When I'm in the spotlight
And some people seem to think that I've changed
That I'm different than I was back then
But in my soul, I know that I'm the same way
That I've really always been
[Chorus]
'Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways
Just 'cause everybody knows her name
Ain't big headed from a little bit of fame
I still like wearing my old ball cap
Ridin' my kids around piggy back
They might know me all around the world
But, y'all, I'm still a Mississippi girl
Whoo!
Well, I spent a few weeks in California
They put my face on the big movie screen
But that don't mean I've forgotten where I came from
That's just me chasing dreams
'Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways
Just 'cause everybody knows her name
Ain't big headed from a little bit of fame
I still like wearing my old ball cap
Ridin' my kids around piggy back
They might know me all around the world
But, y'all, I'm still a Mississippi girl
Whoo!
'Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways
Just 'cause everybody knows her name
Ain't big headed from a little bit of fame
Still like wearing my old ball cap
Ridin' my kids around piggy back
They may know me all around this world, that's all right
But, y'all, I'm still a Mississippi ---- girl
Mississippi girl!
Oh, oh
Mississippi girl!
Mississippi girl!
yeah, yeah, oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Mississippi girl!
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
It Matters To Me - Faith Hill
Baby, tell me where'd you ever learn
To fight without saying a word
Then waltz back into my life
Like it's all gonna be alright
Don't you know how much it hurts...
When we don't talk
When we don't touch
When it doesn't feel like we're even in love
It matters to me
When I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me
Baby I still don't understand
The distance between a woman and a man
So tell me how far it is
And how you can love like this
'Cause I'm not sure I can
When we don't talk
when we don't touch
When it doesn't feel like we're even in love
It matters to me
When I dont know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me
Oh and I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
Oh-- it matters to me...
Oh-- it matters to me...
It matters to me...

Cry - Faith Hill
If I had just one tear running down your cheek
Maybe I could cope
Maybe I’d get some sleep
If I had just one moment at your expense
Maybe all my misery would be well spent
Could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that you’re feeling a little more pain
I gave, now I'm wanting something in return
So cry just a little for me
If your love could be caged
Honey I would hold the key
And conceal it underneath
The pile of lies you handed me
And you’d hunt those lies
They’d be all you’d ever find
That’d be all you’d have to know
For me to be fine
And you'd cry a little
And die just a little
And baby I would feel just a little less pain
I gave, now I'm wanting something in return
So cry just a little for me
Give it up baby
I hear your doin’ fine
Nothings gonna’ save me
Til I see it in your eyes
Some kind of heartache honey
Give it a try
I don’t want pity
I just want what is mine
Yeah
could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain
I gave, now I'm wanting something in return
So cry just a little for me
Yeah
Cry just a little for me
Whoa whoa
Could you cry a little for me
hmmm yeah yeah
The Way You Love Me - Faith Hill
If I could grant you one wish
I wish you could see the way you kiss
Ooh, I love watching you baby
When you're driving me, ooh, crazy
chorus:
Ooh, I love the way you, love the way you love me
There's no where else I'd rather be
Ooh, to feel the way I feel with your arms around me
I only wish that you could see the way you love me
Love me, ooh, the way you love me
It's not right, it's not fair
What you're missing over there
Someday I'll find a way to show you
Just how lucky I am to know you
(Chorus)
You're the million reasons why there's
Love reflecting in my eyes
(chorus til fade)
There You'll Be - Faith Hill

In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life

To feel the sky within my reach
And I always will remember all
The strength you gave to me
Your love made me make it through
Oh I owe so much to you
You were right there for me
CHOURS:
In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life

You were right there for me for always
