She don't need the angels to keep her company.
When the wind is full of worry and her heart won't let her sleep.
She ain't gonna say it, but that don't make it untrue.
All she wants is you.
You would never see it, she'd never let you know.
Cause love's been a landmine that hurt whoever got too close.
She don't need nobody 'cause she's never had to choose.
All she wants is you.
She ain't a liar, but it's hard to tell the truth.
When she's just doing everything she's learned to do.
Cause her heart was a secret until you.
You ain't gotta help her, she don't need you brave.
She may still love you, but her heart ain't yours to save.
Love that's the strongest you never have to prove.
All she wants is you.
Little Civil War lyrics - Dave Barnes
I've had a little time to think about it,
You've had a whole lot of time to mess it up.
But I don't wanna live without the love that you give,
But I could live without all of your junk.
You always interrupt when I'm…
Baby, I wouldn't but you never listen when I talk.
I don't know what I'd do, if I didn't have you,
Darling maybe you'd be better off.
And ooh, it's like fireworks, baby, when we get like this.
Ooh, things that make us both crazy are the things that we'd miss.
Ooh, there ain't nobody else I wanna fight with more.
But we both win, when it ends with a kiss,
That's for sure in our little civil war.
You're a little bit more than I can handle,
Well sometimes you ain't enough.
Won't you just admit, that baby you do this,
So we can get to the making up.
And ooh, it's like fireworks, baby, when we get like this.
Ooh, things that make us both crazy are the things that we'd miss.
Ooh, there ain't nobody else I wanna fight with more.
But we both win, when it ends with a kiss,
That's for sure in our little civil war.
There's nobody, that needs somebody, baby, like I need you.
And ooh...
And ooh...
Ooh, it's like fireworks, baby, when we get like this.
Ooh, things that make us both crazy are the things that we'd miss.
Ooh, there ain't nobody else I wanna fight with more.
But we both win, when it ends with a kiss,
That's for sure in our little civil war.
In our little civil war.
You've had a whole lot of time to mess it up.
But I don't wanna live without the love that you give,
But I could live without all of your junk.
You always interrupt when I'm…
Baby, I wouldn't but you never listen when I talk.
I don't know what I'd do, if I didn't have you,
Darling maybe you'd be better off.
And ooh, it's like fireworks, baby, when we get like this.
Ooh, things that make us both crazy are the things that we'd miss.
Ooh, there ain't nobody else I wanna fight with more.

That's for sure in our little civil war.
You're a little bit more than I can handle,
Well sometimes you ain't enough.

Something More lyrics - Dave Barnes
It's a good goodbye to sleeping-in-weekends.
But every restless night is worth what I'm feeling.
It don't matter what I gotta do,
I won't find anything better than you.
It don't matter what I've got to lose,
Ain't gonna find nothing better than you.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
These golden days, they're ours for the taking.
Every memory is out there and waiting.
It don't matter what I gotta do,
I ain't found anything better than you.
It don't matter what I gotta lose,
Ain't gonna find nothing better than you.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
Love, it's a feeling.
Love, it can break your heart.
Can't you see, you and me,
We had more than love could ever be, from the start.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
But every restless night is worth what I'm feeling.
It don't matter what I gotta do,
I won't find anything better than you.
It don't matter what I've got to lose,
Ain't gonna find nothing better than you.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
These golden days, they're ours for the taking.
Every memory is out there and waiting.
It don't matter what I gotta do,
I ain't found anything better than you.
It don't matter what I gotta lose,
Ain't gonna find nothing better than you.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
Love, it's a feeling.
Love, it can break your heart.
Can't you see, you and me,
We had more than love could ever be, from the start.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
I've never felt like this before.
I knew I'd love you, but this is something more.
Heartbroken Down lyrics - Dave Barnes
Woke from a dream this morning
And I couldn't shake the dust.
Dreamed you up and left me, forgot about us.
I'd gone all kinds of crazy.
I was sleeping in the yard.
Started looking like John the Baptist, Lord, I took it hard, so hard.
I was heartbroken down,
Living with my head hanging to the ground.
There was no way back from the lost I'd found.
Heartbroken down.
I remember putting up posters.
Hoping you'd been seen.
I had them all translated, sent them overseas.
Oh, I offered money,
I offered everything I had.
Which was just a couple boxes and some milk gone bad.
I was heartbroken down,
Living with my head hanging to the ground.
There was no way back from the lost I'd found.
Heartbroken down.
Morning come waking up still in love, I've never been so happy.
Baby, please, never leave, I'm incomplete without you.
I was heartbroken, heartbroken
Love stupid, love stupid
Heartbroken, heartbroken
I was heartbroken down,
Living with my head hanging to the ground.
There was no way back from the lost I'd found.
Heartbroken down.
Heartbroken down.
Heartbroken down.
And I couldn't shake the dust.
Dreamed you up and left me, forgot about us.
I'd gone all kinds of crazy.
I was sleeping in the yard.
Started looking like John the Baptist, Lord, I took it hard, so hard.
I was heartbroken down,
Living with my head hanging to the ground.
There was no way back from the lost I'd found.
Heartbroken down.
I remember putting up posters.
Hoping you'd been seen.
I had them all translated, sent them overseas.
Oh, I offered money,
I offered everything I had.
Which was just a couple boxes and some milk gone bad.
I was heartbroken down,
Living with my head hanging to the ground.
There was no way back from the lost I'd found.
Heartbroken down.
Morning come waking up still in love, I've never been so happy.
Baby, please, never leave, I'm incomplete without you.
I was heartbroken, heartbroken
Love stupid, love stupid
Heartbroken, heartbroken
I was heartbroken down,
Living with my head hanging to the ground.
There was no way back from the lost I'd found.
Heartbroken down.
Heartbroken down.
Heartbroken down.
By Two lyrics - Dave Barnes
You and I, here we are.
Still a fire from just a spark.
I reminisce with every single kiss.
Back to the start.
No matter how much I try.
It's still hard to say good night.
Another word or two is all I want from you.
Just leave on the light.
Cause all I do, I wanna do by two.
God only knows the road and the miles we have yet to go.
Bridges that we'll burn, lessons we will learn, the stories we sow.
With you here by my side and your pretty little hand in mine.
We're just a boy and girl up against the world.
Coming out fine.
All I do, I wanna do by two.
I don't wanna fall asleep without you.
I don't want a day without you close.
Our hearts and hands will always be the closest of company.
Best believe, I'll never let you go.
Someday when it's all through, they'll bury me there by you.
I'll be smiling underground.
Gone and heaven bound, Lord, it's true.
Cause I got to do, what I got to do, with you by two.
Still a fire from just a spark.
I reminisce with every single kiss.
Back to the start.
No matter how much I try.
It's still hard to say good night.
Another word or two is all I want from you.
Just leave on the light.
Cause all I do, I wanna do by two.
God only knows the road and the miles we have yet to go.
Bridges that we'll burn, lessons we will learn, the stories we sow.
With you here by my side and your pretty little hand in mine.
We're just a boy and girl up against the world.
Coming out fine.
All I do, I wanna do by two.
I don't wanna fall asleep without you.
I don't want a day without you close.
Our hearts and hands will always be the closest of company.
Best believe, I'll never let you go.
Someday when it's all through, they'll bury me there by you.
I'll be smiling underground.
Gone and heaven bound, Lord, it's true.
Cause I got to do, what I got to do, with you by two.
Can't She Try lyrics - Dave Barnes
It's midnight and she's lonely.
But it's nothing she can't take.
No, it ain't the whispers, that ain't the problem.
It's the watching, waiting, hoping, praying while nothing seems to change.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another long goodbye.
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine.
But can't she try?
She's asking questions into the mirror.
The silence that answers, she knows too well.
She's holding onto a promise,
That what she'll be feeling is worth all she's felt.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another long goodbye.
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine.
But can't she fall?
Can't she have one little look, that's all.
Cause I know she'll get by.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another long goodbye.
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine.
But can't she try?
But it's nothing she can't take.
No, it ain't the whispers, that ain't the problem.
It's the watching, waiting, hoping, praying while nothing seems to change.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another long goodbye.
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine.
But can't she try?
She's asking questions into the mirror.
The silence that answers, she knows too well.
She's holding onto a promise,
That what she'll be feeling is worth all she's felt.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another long goodbye.
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine.
But can't she fall?
Can't she have one little look, that's all.
Cause I know she'll get by.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another broken heart.
She could take another long goodbye.
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine.
But can't she try?
Sharon Sue lyrics - Dave Barnes
I brought you these roses and this big ole bottle of wine.
And all of these daisies, in case you change your mind.
Those boys been calling, but they don't stand a chance.
What makes you happy, I'll give you all of that.
And all my love in the morning, love in the day.
Love in the evening, what you want, just say.
Anything you're needing is everything I'll do.
Cause I ain't sharing you, Sharon Sue.
I'll keep you smiling, I'll keep you close to me.
We'll start a little family in the hills of Tennessee.
Those boys been calling, just tell them how you feel.
That they can stop their chasing, you're running away with me.
And all my love in the morning, love in the day.
Love in the evening, what you want, just say.
Anything you're needing is everything I'll do.
Cause I ain't sharing you, Sharon Sue.
And you're my love in the morning, love in the day.
Love in the evening, what you want, just say.
Anything you're needing is everything I'll do.
Cause I ain't sharing you, you're much too much to lose.
I'm tired of sharing you, Sharon Sue.
And all of these daisies, in case you change your mind.
Those boys been calling, but they don't stand a chance.
What makes you happy, I'll give you all of that.
And all my love in the morning, love in the day.
Love in the evening, what you want, just say.
Anything you're needing is everything I'll do.
Cause I ain't sharing you, Sharon Sue.
I'll keep you smiling, I'll keep you close to me.
We'll start a little family in the hills of Tennessee.
Those boys been calling, just tell them how you feel.
That they can stop their chasing, you're running away with me.
And all my love in the morning, love in the day.
Love in the evening, what you want, just say.
Anything you're needing is everything I'll do.
Cause I ain't sharing you, Sharon Sue.
And you're my love in the morning, love in the day.
Love in the evening, what you want, just say.
Anything you're needing is everything I'll do.
Cause I ain't sharing you, you're much too much to lose.
I'm tired of sharing you, Sharon Sue.
Hotel Keys lyrics - Dave Barnes
Baltimore's the coldest that I have ever been.
In a second it seemed to me the encore came and went.
I fell asleep over Virginia, woke up in Tennessee.
They always seem to steal a piece of me.
Wheels just keep on rolling.
Another town, another scene.
11 years of running over miles of memories.
What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream.
When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys.
That day off in Chicago, when I almost gave it up.
We caught up over coffee, I'd forgotten who I was.
But I made it down to Memphis in time to feel the crowd.
I wonder what Chicago's doing now.
Wheels just keep on rolling.
Another town, another scene.
11 years of running over miles of memories.
What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream.
When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys.
And I'm waiting on a change in the weather.
I'm waiting on a change in me.
Lord, forgive my tired soul.
The music sure can take a toll, it seems.
Oh, it seems.
Wheels just keep on rolling.
Another town, another scene.
11 years of running over miles of memories.
What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream.
When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys.
In a second it seemed to me the encore came and went.
I fell asleep over Virginia, woke up in Tennessee.
They always seem to steal a piece of me.
Wheels just keep on rolling.
Another town, another scene.
11 years of running over miles of memories.
What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream.
When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys.
That day off in Chicago, when I almost gave it up.
We caught up over coffee, I'd forgotten who I was.
But I made it down to Memphis in time to feel the crowd.
I wonder what Chicago's doing now.
Wheels just keep on rolling.
Another town, another scene.
11 years of running over miles of memories.
What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream.
When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys.
And I'm waiting on a change in the weather.
I'm waiting on a change in me.
Lord, forgive my tired soul.
The music sure can take a toll, it seems.
Oh, it seems.
Wheels just keep on rolling.
Another town, another scene.
11 years of running over miles of memories.
What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream.
When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys.
In Bethlehem lyrics - Dave Barnes
Who's that crying in a manger?
In Bethlehem?
It's the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem.
Can you hear the angels singing?
In Bethlehem?
For the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem.
Singing glory, to God in the highest,
Peace, sweet peace on earth.
Someone's bringing them presents
to Bethlehem
To the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem?
Who's that small and mighty?
In Bethlehem?
It's the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem.
Singing glory, to God in the highest,
Peace, sweet peace on earth.
In Bethlehem?
It's the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem.
Can you hear the angels singing?
In Bethlehem?
For the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem.
Singing glory, to God in the highest,
Peace, sweet peace on earth.
Someone's bringing them presents
to Bethlehem
To the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem?
Who's that small and mighty?
In Bethlehem?
It's the Lord, Sweet Lord,
In Bethlehem.
Singing glory, to God in the highest,
Peace, sweet peace on earth.
Christmas Eve lyrics - Dave Barnes
I've been counting down the minutes,
I've been counting down the year.
Just to see mama outside waiting,
And daddy grinning ear to ear.
The driveway gets so crowded,
And the Earth just gets so still.
We'll all tell our stories,
We'll all sing our songs.
While the kids can't sleep from guessing,
When Santa's gonna come.
The presents all are waiting,
But I've got what I need.
There ain't nothing quite like Christmas Eve.
See there's something about the waiting,
But knowing what's to come.
And the same old conversations,
That keep us feeling young.
No one goes to sleep until,
The angel gets his wings.
Christmas Eve,
There's hope in the snow that's falling.
Christmas Eve,
And love is all around
When Love Was Born lyrics - Dave Barnes
Was Bethlehem white as snow?
Had you walked as far as your feet could go?
Were you scared to death so far from home?
On that winter night when Love was born.
Did Mary cry in that makeshift room?
Did He take too long or come too soon?
Did you calm the One that would calm the storm,
Or did he calm you when Love was born?
Was it a silent night?
Could you hear heaven sigh
Giving this gift of love, saving you, saving us.
Could you hear the angels sing?
Did you rock to sleep the restless King?
Did you kiss the head where they placed the thorns,
Did you feel that sting when love was born?
Do you think He knew what He came here for?
The whole world changed when love was born.
Had you walked as far as your feet could go?
Were you scared to death so far from home?
On that winter night when Love was born.
Did Mary cry in that makeshift room?
Did He take too long or come too soon?
Did you calm the One that would calm the storm,
Or did he calm you when Love was born?
Was it a silent night?
Could you hear heaven sigh
Giving this gift of love, saving you, saving us.
Could you hear the angels sing?
Did you rock to sleep the restless King?
Did you kiss the head where they placed the thorns,
Did you feel that sting when love was born?
Do you think He knew what He came here for?
The whole world changed when love was born.
White Flag lyrics - Dave Barnes
I know I know I know I’ve hurt you lately

How Long lyrics - Dave Barnes
You and I are living heavy-hearted
Are we just another long goodbye?
In this land of the left and leaving
We know that we gotta try
How long can we go on?
Here in the middle, we won't give a little
And how long can we go on like this
Oh won't you tell me?
How long can we go on?
Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see
But what about you and me?
How long?
Forgiveness is a heavy promise
Its a language that's so hard to speak
I'm hearing whispers by the darkest voices
But I know what you mean to me (so much to me)
How long can we go on?
Here in the middle, we won't give a little
And how long can we go on like this
Oh won't you tell me?
How long can we go on?
Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see
But what about you and me?
How long?
And all we are, we are
And what will be, will be
You and I we gotta find
A burned up bridge to each others side
Its the only way to see
How long can we go on?
How long can we go on?
Barely living, when nobody's giving in
How long can we go on like this
Oh won't you tell me?
How long can we go on?
Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see
But what about you and me?
How long?
Are we just another long goodbye?
In this land of the left and leaving
We know that we gotta try
How long can we go on?
Here in the middle, we won't give a little
And how long can we go on like this
Oh won't you tell me?
How long can we go on?
Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see
But what about you and me?
How long?
Forgiveness is a heavy promise
Its a language that's so hard to speak
I'm hearing whispers by the darkest voices
But I know what you mean to me (so much to me)
How long can we go on?
Here in the middle, we won't give a little
And how long can we go on like this
Oh won't you tell me?
How long can we go on?
Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see
But what about you and me?
How long?
And all we are, we are
And what will be, will be
You and I we gotta find
A burned up bridge to each others side
Its the only way to see
How long can we go on?
How long can we go on?
Barely living, when nobody's giving in
How long can we go on like this
Oh won't you tell me?
How long can we go on?
Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see
But what about you and me?
How long?
