"Asking Us To Dance" lyrics
"Asking Us To Dance"
There's a full moon up and rising
And there's a whisper of a breeze
Blowin' through the tangled silver
Hangin' from the cypress trees
There's a river made of moonlight
Flowin' clear across the lake
And there's a million stars just waitin'
To fall for any wish we make
Darlin' tonight I am reminded
How much these two hearts need romance
You know it isn't all that often
We get this kind of chance
Why don't we get caught in this moment
Be victims of sweet circumstance
Tonight I feel like all creation
Is asking us to dance
There'll be time enough tomorrow
To get back to our daily bread
But there's somethin' about this evening
That's put this notion in my head
That heaven and the earth are meeting
Tonight upon this very spot
And all the things on earth worth havin'
Things that we've already got
Darlin' tonight I am reminded
How much these two hearts need romance
You know it isn't very often
We get this kind of chance
Why don't we get caught in this moment
Be victims of sweet circumstance
Tonight I feel like all creation
Is asking us to dance
Why don't we get caught in this moment
Be victims of sweet circumstance
Tonight I feel like all creation
Is asking us to dance

Bryan Adams - "When You Love Someone" When you love someone you'll do anything
You'll do all the crazy things that you can't explain
You'll shoot the moon, put out the sun
When you love someone
You'll deny the truth, believe a lie...
Martina McBride - "I Love You" Yeah
The sun is shinin' everyday
The clouds never get in the way for you and me
I've known you just a week or two
But baby I'm so into you
Can hardly breathe
And I'm in so totally
Wrapped up...
Mary Chapin Carpenter - "Not Too Much To Ask" To hear you say my name, to see you search my eyes
To feel you touch my hand, it more than satisfies.
If I was not the first, just say I'll be the last
It's too much to expect, but it's not too much...
Shenandoah - "Ghost In This House" I don't pick up the mail
I don't pick up the phone
I don't answer the door
I'd just as soon be alone
I don't keep this place up
I just keep the lights down
I don't live in these rooms
I just rattle...
Nanci Griffith - "Going Back To Georgia" Oh, the city snow makes your brown eyes shine
We've gotta look real hard to find a reason to cry
New York, New York is a friend of the traveling kind
And I'm coming around from years of hard times...
