IS IT TOO LATE (C) Ron Burres

IS IT TOO LATE   (C) Ron Burres

DRINKIN’ CHAMPAGNE FROM YOUR SHOE

GETTIN’ HOME WAY PAST TWO

IT’S BEEN A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

IT’S FELT SO GOOD WITH YOU

THE WAY IT USED TO DO

COULD IT BE I’M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU

IS IT TOO LATE FOR THE MEMORIES THAT WE KNEW

IS IT TOO LATE FOR THE SAME OL’ I LOVE YOU’S

IT FEELS SO GOOD TO GOOD TO BE WITH YOU AGAIN

I’M GLAD THAT WE’RE STILL FRIENDS

bridge

WE’VE BEEN LIVING LIKE TO STRANGERS

AFRAID TO TOUCH OR CARE

DENYING ALL THE FEELINGS THAT WE’VE SHARED

BUT TONIGHT THERE’S SOMETHING DIFFERENT

THE FEELING IS STRANGE AND NEW

AM I FALLING BACK IN LOVE WITH YOU

(INST BREAK)

IT FEELS LIKE IT USED TO DO

LYING HERE WITH YOU

YOUR BODY FEELS SO WARM

IT FEELS SO RIGHT WITH YOU

THE WAY IT USED TO DO

AM I STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU

IS IT TOO LATE FOR THE MEMORIES THAT WE KNEW

IS IT TOO LATE FOR THE SAME OL’ I LOVE YOU’S

HAVE WE PASSED THE POINT OF NO RETURN

HAVE WE NO BRIDGES LEFT TO BURN

IT’S NOT TO LATE FOR THE MEMORIES THAT WE KNEW

AND IT’S NOT TO LATE FOR SOME NEW I LOVE YOU’S

AND IT’S NOT TO LATE TO SAVE WHAT WE USED TO HAVE

CAUSE I KNOW I’M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU

YES I KNOW I’M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU

IF YOU KNEW (c) Ron Burres

IF YOU KNEW  (c) Ron Burres

IF YOU KNEW HOW I FELT IN MY HEART

I KNOW THAT WE WOULD NEVER PART

AND THE TEARS THAT I CRIED, WOULD FINNALY BE DRIED

IF YOU KNEW HOW I FELT FROM THE START

THOUGH I’LL KEEP ON DREAMIN YOU SEE

IN LOVE WITH A MEMORY

THE SUN DOESN’T SHINE, AND YOU’RE NO LONGER MINE

YOU NEVER KNEW HOW I FELT IN MY HEART

IF YOU KNEW HOW I CRIED FOR YOU

THOSE LONG LONELY NIGHTS I WAS BLUE

THE OLD SUN WOULD STILL SHINE, AND YOU WOULD BE MINE

IF YOU KNEW HOW I FELT IN MY HEART

BUT THE SUN DOESN’T SHINE ANY MORE

THE SKY’S NO LONGER BLUE

MY HEART FEELS SO EMPTY, WITHOUT YOU BY ME

IF YOUD ONLY KNOWN FROM THE START

SO I’LL KEEP ON DREAMIN YOU SEE

IN LOVE WITH A MEMORY

THE SUN DOESN’T SHINE, YOU’RE NO LONGER MINE

YOU NEVER KNEW HOW I FELT IN MY HEART

YOU NEVER KNEW HOW I FELT IN MY HEART 

I WONDER (C) Ron Burres

I WONDER     (C) Ron Burres    (originally titled   You can't Judge a book by it's Cover)

I WONDER WHAT IT’S LIKE TO TOUCH YOU,

IS YOUR SKIN AS SOFT AS IT LOOKS

DOES IT REALLY FEEL LIKE ROYAL SATIN,

OR IS THAT JUST THE WAY THAT IT LOOKS

AND I WONDER WHAT IT’S LIKE TO HOLD YOU

IS YOUR BODY AS WARM AS IT LOOKS

WOULD I FEEL LOVE WRAPPED ALL ARROUND ME

OR IS THAT JUST THE WAY THAT IT LOOKS

(chorus)YOU CAN’T JUDGE A BOOK BY IT’S COVER

YOU CAN’T TELL A GIRL BY HER LOOKS

TO FIND THE TRUTH IS A GAMBLE,

BETWEEN THE COVERS, THERE LIES THE PROOF

I WONDER WHAT IT’S LIKE TO LOVE YOU

ARE YOU REALLY AS SWEET AS YOU LOOK

DO YOU LOVE LIKE THE WOMAN YOUR SHOWIN’

(like the woman I’m seein’)

OR IS THAT JUST THE WAY THAT YOU LOOK.

WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES I SEE HEAVEN

ARE THEY REALLY AS DEEP AS THEY LOOK

DO THEY REALLY SEE ALL THE WORLDS BEAUTY

OR IS THAT JUST THE WAY THAT THEY LOOK

(chorus)

I WONDER IF YOU ARE AN ANGEL

ARE YOU REALLY AS PURE AS YOU LOOK

IS THAT MAGIC I SEE ALL ARROUND YOU

OR IS THAT JUST THE WAY THAT YOU LOOK

(final chorus)

NO YOU CAN’T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS’ COVER YOU CAN’T KNOW A GIRL BY HER LOOKS

YOU’VE GOT TO GET PAST THE COVERS, IF YOU’RE GONNA’ LET YOUR HEART HAVE A LOOK

YOU’VE GOT TO GET PAST THE COVERS IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH

EVANSTOWN (c) Ron Burres

EVANSTOWN

WELL I PACKED UP ALL MY THINGS AND MOVED TO EVANSTOWN

TRYIN’ TO FIND SOME WORK AND MAKE MY DAILY BREAD

THE ONLY THING I’VE FOUND IN EVANSTOWN

IS TROUBLE AND A WAY TO WIND UP DEAD

SLEEPIN’ IN A PARK JUST OUTSIDE OF TOWN

A BUDDY I’D JUST MET GOT HIMSELF GUNNED DOWN

TRYIN’ TO SAVE THE MONEY FROM A LITTLE JOB

HE SOLD HIS LIFE TO A GUY NAMED BOB

SO THEY SHIPPED HIS BODY HOME FROM EVANSTOWN

BACK TO WHERE HE WAS BEFORE HIS LUCK RAN DOWN

OH EVANSTOWN, EVANSTOWN, YOU AINT GONNA GET ME DOWN

EVANSTOWN, EVANSTOWN, I’M NOT GONNA STAY ARROUN’

WELL THIS TWO WHEEL TRAILERS’ GETTIN’ MIGHTY SMALL

CAN’T FIND A THING T’ KEEP ME HERE AT ALL

I’M GETTIN’ WORRIED ABOUT MY LIFE

I’M SO LONELY, AND I MISS MY WIFE.

THINGS MIGHT BE SLOW IN MY HOME TOWN

BUT IT SURE BEATS DYIN’ HERE IN EVANSTOWN

EVANSTOWN, EVANSTOWN, YOU AINT GONNA GET ME DOWN

EVANSTOWN, EVANSTOWN, I’M NOT GONNA STAY ARROUN’

EVANSTOWN, EVANSTOWN, YOU AINT GONNA GET ME DOWN

(This song inspired by a news article during an economic downturn)

YOU MAKE CHEATIN' SEEM TO EASY (c) Ron Burres

YOU MAKE CHEATIN' SEEM TO EASY

You make cheatin' seem to easy, and somethings not quite right
when I was out playin' round, Where were you last night

My minds a little hazy, and things are not to clear
when I pulled in our driveway,  Were you already here

Somehow I do remember, seein your ol' car
but was it parked here at home or at the local bar
So if you could my darlin' dear, sit down here and explain
So I can ease my mixed up mind, and stop this awful pain

Tell me why it is most every night
When I go out the back door, you turn out the lights
and why you're so eager for me to go out alone
and why its always ringin' when there's no one on the phone.
It's really quite confusing, and something must be wrong
I just can't get a handle on,  who's stringin' who along.

You make cheatin seem to easy and somethings not feelin' right
when I was out playin' round
Where were you last night

When I came home this mornin' a bangin' into walls
I could swear I saw you a sneakin' up our hall
I might of been mistaken my eyes play tricks on me
and a guy can't see what's goin on
When he's crawlin on his knees
But I thought I caught a glimpse of you
and it seemed mighty strange
So if you could my darlin' dear
Sit down here and explain

Tell me why it is when you say everythings alright
If I don't plan on goin' out, you'll up and start a fight
You've always got a headache, or some other ache or pain
you go out for milk and come back hours later with your hair all wet
and there's been no rain so honey please explain

It's really quite confusing and somethings else is goin' on
and I can't tell anymore. who's doin' the puttin' on.

You make cheatin' seem to easy and somethings not quite right
When I was out playin' round, where were you last night.

(spoken fade out)
How come your face got red and hid my new shoes under the bed.
or the time you went to your mom's funeral, and she ain't even dead
you got some splainin to do.
