Is It Love Yet? lyrics - Chely Wright

It's been a long time comin'

I've been alone so long

My heart is doin' somethin'

Can't put my finger on

I feel it when you touch me

I see it in your eyes

I get the feelin' we're fallin'

Fallin' side by side

[Chorus:]

Is it love yet

Is it real

'Cause ya know I love the way you make me feel

Oh we took our chance

We took our time

And if it's love boy I won't mind

I'll take all I can get

Is it love yet

My mamma always told me

You'll know when love is true

Sometimes when you're not lookin'

It's sneakin' up on you

[Repeat chorus 2x]

Before You Lie lyrics - Chely Wright

I think I know what you're about to say

I can see it in your eyes and on your face

We swore we never would

So while the words are still unspoken

Don't you think you should

[Chorus:]

Take a breath

Take a moment

Take your time

Before you lie

'Cause once you do

Love is different

Everything changes

Between you and I

And it gets easier every time

Oh and you can still change your mind

Before you lie

All I ask of you is honesty

We said that's how this love will always be

So careful what you say

'Cause it only takes a half a truth

To throw it all away

[Chorus]

It's up to you

This can go go either way

You get to choose

Which road we take

So

[Chorus]

Before you lie

Before you lie

Feelin' Single And Seein' Double lyrics - chely wright

[Chorus:]

Well I really had a ball last night

I held all the pretty boys tight

I was feelin' single seein' double

Wound up in a whole lot of trouble

But today I'll face the big fight but

I really had a ball last night

When I came home from work this mornin'

My baby was feelin' low

And he told me what was on his mind

Then he told me where I could go

Well I didn't want to go where he told me to

'Cause the water was cold in the lake

Now there's somethin' fishy 'bout this whole deal

I don't see where I made my mistake

[Chorus]

When I woke up this mornin'

Like me the sun was high

Well I started walkin' the long way home

Just to think of an alibi

Well I couldn't think of a doggone thing

That hadn't already been said

So I guess I better just play it by ear

For I'm already dead

[Chorus]

But today I'll face the big fight but

I really had a ball last night

10 Lb. Heart lyrics - Chely Wright

People say I care too much

I'm so emotional

A tender soul who's out of control

I've been told a heart like mine

Is truly valuable

Worth even more than diamonds and gold

I'm overloaded with love

I've been saving up

For someone else who can't get enough

I must have a 10 lb. heart

[Chorus:]

A ton of devotion

And gallons of tears

An old flame still burning

From my 19th year

Exploding with passion

And raging romance

(Begging) urging me constantly to take one more chance

And let this love inside of me start

Flowing from my 10 lb. heart

I need someone adventurous

This is serious

The timid hearted need not apply

Faithful and available

With some experience

In handling a heavy desire

So now if I've described you

And you need someone who

Can share your dreams and make them come true

Look inside my 10 lb. heart

[Repeat chorus 2x]

Please won't you help this love inside of me start

Flowing from this 10 lb. heart

Listenin' To The Radio lyrics - Chely Wright

He wears a Harley Jacket and a kiss me smile.

Through his steel blue eyes I can see for miles.

He digs big band music and the Rolling Stones.

But we listen country when were all alone.

'Cause it makes me crazy.

It drives me wild.

I like my lovin' country style.

[Chorus:]

Well, were listenin' to the radio.

Flyin' down the highway.

Feelin' like outlaws.

Wind's goin our way.

Sittin' right beside him.

Hell-bent, holdin' on.

Flippin' through the stations.

Lookin' for a fast song.

Singin' along with the ones we know.

Listenin' to the radio.

Well, we stop for gas, but not for long.

'Cause that Philco radio keeps us movin' along.

He floors that '66 Mustang, rag top 289.

While I blow him kisses from the passenger side.

'Cause it makes him crazy.

It drives him wild.

He likes his lovin' country style

[Chorus]

I slide on over when the song slows down.

I give him all my love to throw his arms around.

We're so in love we never touch the ground.

Blastin' through the wind in a wall of sound.

[Repeat chorus 2x]

The Love That We Lost lyrics - Chely Wright

Going through old dresser drawers

Fumbling through there closets

It's got to be here somewhere

I know it's round here somewhere

Searching from room to room

We couldn't have just lost it

I know it's round here somewhere

It's got to be here somewhere

Maybe we packed it up

With college books and winter clothes

Things we thought were in the way

Out of style or just outgrown

[Chorus:]

We didn't give it away

We just left it alone

We tried to find it one day

That's when we noticed it gone

I turned the house upside down

Praying I'd stumble across

Some sign thats it's still around

Got to find the love that we lost

Captured in old picture frames

Shinning in those faces

It used to be here somewhere

I know it's still here somewhere

Reflected in our children's eyes

How could we misplace it

I know it was here yesterday

How could it just slip away

it was more then just a box of junk

We stored away to gather dust

This was a dream we thought

We always could reach out and touch

[Repeat chorus twice]

Got to find the love that we lost

Heart Shaped World lyrics - Chely Wright

Columbus said the world was round

Back when everyone said it was flat

Just between me and you and the man in the moon

Baby, it ain't anything like that

[Chorus:]

'Cause were living in a heart shaped world

Our head in the clouds, but our feet on the ground

Yeah, we're living in a heart shaped world

Don't you know baby, love makes the world go 'round

Now, satellite pictures sent back to earth

Shows a big, blue ball floatin out in space

We've got a vision, yeah, and we're on a mission

To tell the whole planet it ain't that way

[Chorus]

Don't you know baby, love makes the world go

Don't you know baby, love makes the world go 'round

The Love He Left Behind lyrics - Chely Wright

I talk to him everyday

Even though he's oh-so-far away

And every night I lay in bed

And hug the pillow where he laid his head

And in my dreams I drift back to that high school kiss

And the night he put his class ring on my hand

I see our wedding day and it takes my breath away

Once again, like it did back then

[Chorus:]

I'm living on the love her left me

And he gave me so much love in such a little time

And that kind of love is hard to find

One day we'll meet again in that sweet by-and-by

But till we're back together

I'm living on the love he left behind

Our little boy down the hall

Is trying to teach me how to play baseball

Yesterday, I got choked up

When he said, Mommy, You use daddy's glove

I turned down a thousand bucks

For his old pick-up truck

I'm hangin' on to everything that's part of him

I'll hold him in my heart

Till I can hold him in my arms

Once again

But till then

[Chorus]

But till we're back together

I'm living on the love he left behind

Right In The Middle Of It lyrics - Chely Wright

They're either fallin' in or they're fallin' out

That's the only kind of love you ever hear about

But we're somewhere in between

And it oughta go down in history

'Cause love is alive with you and me

And it's a real good place to be

[Chorus:]

'Cause we're right in the middle of it

Yeah, right in the middle of it

There's no fireworks and no big bouquets

No hot romance on display

But we don't think about breakin' up

We're right in the middle of love

Yeah, all our friends wonder how we made it last

We say we're lookin' at tomorrow and not the past

No, they're never gonna make a movie 'bout us

'Cause we don't have a Hollywood love

The credits roll when a movie is through

But there ain't gonna be an end to me and you

[Repeat chorus 2x]

We're just right in the middle of love

We're just right in the middle of love

What I Learned From Loving You lyrics - Chely Wright

Sometimes I still think of you

Love that's gone by and the things I didn't do

Time heals hearts, so they all say

Passage of years slowly pulls the pain away

But there's still a little tenderness left in everything I do

It's what I learned from loving you

That's what I learned from loving you

Times have changed, I have changed, too

Even my eyes have turned a deeper shade of blue

Well, I guess it's all that crying they went through

It's what I learned from loving you

That's what I learned from loving you

Well, I had too much to learn to hold on to someone like you

And it took losing you to make me see

The man you needed to be

I don't cry, though we're apart

And someday soon someone else will need this heart

And the next time I'm gonna know when a love is true

It's what I learned from loving you

That's what I learned from loving you

That's what I learned from loving you

That's what I learned from loving you

Alligator Purse lyrics - Chely Wright

I called him for days, he didn't answer the phone

I drove by his house, I knew he was home

A week's worth of papers and mail in the box

I thought he was dead, I picked the lock

I found him in tears in the dark on his knees

With a hole in his chest where his heart used to be

And he said...

[First chorus:]

Don't call the doctor, don't call the nurse

Call for the lady with the alligator purse

She knows the spell to lift this curse

Go find the lady with the alligator purse

In an old stone house off 21st

I found the lady with the alligator purse

She answered the door, said I know who you are

She lit a candle, consulted the stars

When I saw her closing that reptile's hide

I asked her point-blank, is my friend going to die

And she said...

[Second Chorus:]

I'm not a doctor, I'm not a nurse

I'm just the lady with the alligator purse

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst

So said the lady with the alligator purse

She said, look at what happened to Cleopatra

When she didn't take my advice

And Romeo, Juliet, they didn't get it

Too bad, those kids were so nice

By the time we got back to my pitiful pal

There was no sign of life till he saw the alligator

Purse on her arm, the gleam in her eyes

She opened the bag, there was nothing inside

She said, there's no secret, it's love that I use

I just carry this bag because it matches my shoes

And she said...

[Third Chorus:]

Don't call the doctor, don't call the nurse

Don't call the lady with the alligator purse

Love is the magic of the universe

Take it from the lady with the alligator purse

Love is the magic of the universe

Take it from the lady with the alligator purse

The lady with the alligator purse

The Other Woman lyrics - Chely Wright

She picked up his jacket

And hid her earrings in his pocket

So he'd have a reason to call

But her telephone won't ring

And the shame that it will bring

Makes her regret it all

She should be accustomed

She oughta know you just can't trust 'em

When he's got a wife that he ain't gonna leave

Maybe she deserves what she's got comin'

She can't hide and there's no runnin'

From the guilty, lonely life she's bound to lead

[Chorus:]

'Cause she's the other woman

You've seen her before

Deep in his eyes

When he walks through the door

But did you know that even though

She's puttin' you through hell

You don't have to hate the other woman

She'll do it herself

They tried to keep it undercover

But you would soon discover

That she's your worse nightmare comin' true

You don't even know her name

But you wish her a life of pain

And believe you me that's what she's goin' through

[Chorus]

No, you don't have to hate the other woman

She'll do it herself

Day One lyrics - Chely Wright

Woke up this mornin', put the coffe on

Opened up the blinds and there was the sun

Now, this ain't just another day

It's the hardest one I've ever faced

[Chorus:]

Minute by minute, tear by tear

If I can hang on and just be strong

Tommorow will be here

The hurtin' won't end, it's only just begun

But I'll get over you, if I can make it through

Day one

I'll jump head-first into my work

If I stay busy, maybe it won't hurt

Anything to forget you're gone

And keep the time from draggin' on

[Chorus]

Someday I'll look back on it all

And thank God my heart survived the fall

[Chorus]

Minute by minute, I'll be hangin' on

But I'll get over you, if I can make it through

Day one

Yeah, I'll get over you, if I can only make it through

Day one

It's Not Too Late lyrics - Chely Wright

The clock is ticking loud as thunder

In this silent room

The morning comes and I wait to see

If it dawns on you

That I can't make what little love you give me

Be enough

And I'm just a tick away from giving up

[Chorus:]

But it's not too late for you

To turn this thing around

And say the words to keep me here

But do it now

'Cause love is slipping through our hands

One moment at a time

But it's not too late

For you to change my mind

The rings we're wearing on our hands

Are made of the purest gold

But what we're doing to each other

Is getting old

And now, the pedestal I've put you on

Is crumbling, too

But it's in your power to make it good as new

[Chorus]

The clock is ticking loud as thunder

In this silent room

But it's not too late

For you to change

It's not too late for you to change my mind

It's not too late for you to change my mind

Gotta Get Good At Givin' Again lyrics - Chely Wright

They married young, right out of school

Back in '78

She rubbed his back, he rubbed her feet

After a long, hard day

Now they're livin' in Beverly Hills

And it's all turned upside-down

He gets a weekly massage, she gets a pedicure

On different sides of town

And they both know they've gotten far

From the way they used to be

She wakes him up in the middle of the night

And cries, baby, listen to me

[Chorus:]

We gotta get good at givin' again

If we wanna have a life like we did back then

We've got a second change to let someone in

Hey, we gotta get good at givin' again

We gotta get good at givin' again

A little girl walks in the park

Holdin' hands with her daddy's mom

She wants to know why that man is asleep

On the bench with the dirty clothes on

Grandma tells the innocent child

It hasn't always been this way

She slips a ten dollar bill in his shopping cart

And whispers, mister, have a good day

[Chorus]

It oughta tell us something

When the ones we should be lovin'

Ain't getting what they need

Don't be afraid to make the first move

Take the lead

[Chorus]

Hey, we gotta get good at givin' again

We gotta get good at givin' again

Till I Was Loved By You lyrics - Chely Wright

I tried my hand at the game enough

But I ain't lucky when it comes to love

I want it all but I never wanna wait

You ain't like the ones I've known before

You stir up feelings that I can't ignore

This heart of mine finally understands

And baby, I've been held and I've been tied down

I've been wrapped and I've been unwound

I've been kissed oh

But I ain't never been loved

Till I was loved by you

Now people told me that I was wrong

But I knew love was a sweeter song

I kept waiting for the perfect melody

Now in your arms it's plain as day

Knowing you was worth the wait

Come say you'll never give up on me

And baby, I've been held and I've been tied down

I've been wrapped and I've been unwound

I've been kissed oh

But I ain't never been loved

Till I was loved by you

And baby, I've been held and I've been tied down

I've been wrapped and I've been unwound

I've been kissed oh

But I ain't never been loved

Till I was loved by you

Till I was loved by you

Till I was loved by you

Till I was loved by you

He's A Good Ole Boy lyrics - Chely Wright

To steal him's been your number one ambition

But sister here's one safe that you don't have to crack

I'll hand him over under one condition

A deal's a deal and you can't give him back

Cause he's a good ole boy

Good for nothing

Good at lying, good at loving

Good at leaving

When the rent comes due

He's a good ole boy and I'm a good ole girl

So I'll give him to you

Go ahead and take him with my blessing

He might even let you be his Sunday girl

If your not used to worrying and guessing

He'll soon shake up your cozy little world

Cause he's a good ole boy

Good for nothing

Good at lying, good at loving

Good at leaving

When the rent comes due

He's a good ole boy and I'm a good ole girl

So I'll give him to you

Cause he's a good ole boy

Good for nothing

Good at lying, good at loving

Good at leaving

When the rent comes due

He's a good ole boy and I'm a good ole girl

So I'll give him to you

He's a good ole boy and I'm a good ole girl

And I'll hive him to you

Till All Her Tears Are Dry lyrics - Chely Wright

I sat bored at my piano

When he walked into the bar

When he nodded from his table

I said I know just how things are

Cause the only time I see you

Is when you've made your lady cry

And you always say you'll only stay

Till all her tears are dry

Now for months I've watched you wrestle

With that other side of you

You're scared one day you'll lose your temper

Yes and then you'll lose her too

Oh they say that love is brutal

And for years she's paid the price

It might be too late you best not wait

Till all her tears are dry

You better run to her and fall on your knees

Swear that you'll be the man

She's wanted you to be

Then by the grace of God

She'll let you lay there by her side

And hold her gently

Till all her tears are dry

You better run to her and fall on your knees

Swear that you'll be the man

She's wanted you to be

Then by the grace of God

She'll let you lay there by her side

And hold her gently

Till all her tears are dry

Hold her gently

Till all her tears are dry
