Track Name: Everything He Says
SONG LYRICS

Caught up with a friend in conversation
Talkin’ ‘bout his new main squeeze
I thought he skipped his medication
Or caught some strange disease

CHORUS
Everything he says starts with she
Every single word's about this girl of his dreams
Ohh when his tongue gets tied
There’s a reason why
Everything he says (everything he says)
starts with she___
she___

I thought it was just infatuation
Like the rest it wouldn’t last
But I was there at the reception
when he raised his glass___

CHORUS

Then I heard the news
In a little pink bow
in mary jane shoes
how she’s got Daddy’s face
she’s got Mommy’s grace
‘n her deep baby blues____

CHORUS
Track Name: Carry Me
SONG LYRICS

I am here not quite body but full of soul
just on my way to a new life of my own
So I drift upon the waves in a hollow sea
rolling with the tides wherever they carry me…

CHORUS
Carry me, Carry me to a world where I can see
Hold me up unto the light
Carry me, Carry me to a place where I can be
The reflection in your eyes

You are there, your heart gives you away…
taking special care till that all-important day…
When we meet you will know that I am yours…
Just as I will know that you are mine.

CHORUS

Here we are and how the time went by
The days are made of games and lullabies
If I cry I know you’ll understand
I need your hands

CHORUS
Track Name: A Friend in You
SONG LYRICS

You’ve been at my side through the hardest of times
there when I needed you most
The truest of blue and I offer to you
This 'specially heartfelt toast

We have a bond that keeps holding on
Like some kind of cosmic glue
I know as long as forever will last
I have a friend in you

CHORUS
I have a friend in you
you have a friend in me
There’s nothing oh nothing I wouldn’t do for you
Unconditionally

We had ourselves a quarrel or two
could have broken our friendship in half
But the magic of us is not giving up
Now we look back and laugh

I think of the times you’re on my mind
And the phone rings right on cue
I know as long as forever will last
I have a friend in you

CHORUS

A friend like you is family too
That is what we’ve become
We’ll never be too far apart
Even when our time comes

We’ll fly in the clouds and frolic about
Like angel friends must do
I know as long as forever will last
I have a friend in you
I have a friend in you
Track Name: Black Ice
SONG LYRICS

When you're out some day
living your life away
I'm where the traffic slows
curled picture and a faded rose
wishing I were you
with your point of view but..

CHORUS
Black Ice
Cold Beer
Look now here I am
Another cross by the side of the road

Sorry team I let you down
along with the entire town
undefeated 'til the final game
I'm the one to blame
wearing my number didn't help
you were all too sad to melt the..

CHORUS
Black Ice
Cold Beer
Look now here I am
Another cross by the side of the road

BRIDGE
I won't forget my first girlfriend
when she said yes
to wear my ring around her neck

Darlin'
maybe you were the one for me
guess now you'll always be
but I wish you weren't home
or didn't pick up the phone
now I can't undo
what I've done to you with

CHORUS
Black Ice
Cold Beer
Look now here I am
Another cross by the side of the road
Track Name: The Christmas Tree on Salem Street
LYRICS

There's a Christmas tree on Salem Street
in the window for all to see
Decorated and all lit up
An angel flying high above

CHORUS
There’s something special about
the Christmas tree in a midwest house
Every gift is wrapped
With a name attached
Standin’ proud and tall
For the one who gave his all
People come for miles to see
the Christmas Tree on Salem Street

You can walk by any Summer night
The only house with a tree so bright
Ornaments hung with love so true
Include a pair of baby shoes

CHORUS

In this small country town
You find out if you ask around
Their waitin’ for an only son
Gone MIA________ in seventy-one

CHORUS

There's a Christmas tree on Salem Street
