Teardrops
I have teardrops runnin’ down my face
Why do I cry?
Why does it feel like a disgrace?
Why do they fall when I’m happy or sad?
When I sing from the heart
Or when I think of things that’s bad?
Why do teardrops fall…
No matter of the weather
sometimes it don’t matter what’s happened at all
They just stream down my face,
with no control at all…
Quote
I might have this posted else where, but it’s still a favorite quote.
Garibaldi: No boom?
Sinclair: No boom.
Ivanova: No boom today . Boom tomorrow. There is always a boom tomorrow.
(as others leave) What? Look somebody’s got to have some damn perspective around here. Sooner or later - BOOM!

Troubadour
I still feel 25,
most of the time.
I still raise a little cain with the boys.
Honky tonks and pretty women.
Lord I’m still right there with them.
Singing above the crowd and the noise.
(Chorus)
Sometimes I feel like Jesse James,
Still trying to make a name,
Knowin’ nothing’s gonna change what I am.
I was a young troubadour,
When I rode in on a song,
And I’ll be an old troubadour,
When I’m gone.
Well, the truth about a mirror,
Is that a damned old mirror,
Don’t really tell the whole truth.
It don’t show what’s deep inside.
Oh read between the lines,
And it’s really no reflection of my youth.
(Repeat Chorus)
I was a young troubadour,
When I rode in on a song.
And I’ll be an old troubadour,
When I’m gone.
I’ll be an old troubadour,
When I’m gone.
- George Strait
Back down
you pull me up
and you bring me back down
My heart is torn
Don’t like this frown
Why is it, when things go good for me
you get jealous as it seems
you hit at my heart
with words so unkind
How you don’t seem to support
Starts to unwind
Now, I might know what to do
Yet, why am I still so kind
to you
It’s time for you to
Back down
Stop taking your negativity
out on me
When things go so good
for me
I can’t help the wrong
in your life
You know, I wish I could
I can’t help you
when you’re ugly to me
I just wish you could support me
Be good to me
and find what good would work for you.
Be a true friend
As I know we can talk
about things
When it’s time…
But when positive is brought down
by negative
It doesn’t help anything…
It can hurt those around you…
When you know that
I’m in my greatest mood
up in the sky
And you bring me…
Oh, you pull me up
And you bring me back down
My heart is torn
I don’t like this frown
Understand me
Understand that I care
don’t let me down
don’t bring evil here.
It’s time…
Oh, it’s time now…
I won’t take this…
Because you know…
It’s time for you to
Back down
