TOAST TO LIFE
I know it hasn't been easy
Dealing with so much
But we've made it this far
And we've had enough
Of the gloom and doom, the ups and down
Let's forget our worries
And light up the town
Throw up the confetti, pop the champagne
let's give a TOAST TO LIFE
It's time to live again
Put on your party hat, grab a good friend
let's give a TOAST TO LIFE
It's time to live again
TOAST TO LIFE, TOAST TO LIFE, yeah, yeah
TOAST TO LIFE, TOAST TO LIFE, yeah, yeah
You might not sail the coast
jamming to way past three
But let go of your fears
Dance like your problem free
Try not to sweat things you can't change
just enjoy the ride
Bring sunshine to the rain
Repeat Chorus
We don't need a special day
we don't need a reason why no, no. no, we need to celebrate, celebrate life
Repeat Chorus

IT'S GOIN'DOWN
I peeled off my steel toe boots, hung up my yellow hard hat
the end of another long week, nobody's got time for that!
hit the spot with the boys that ol band was jammin
saw a girl on the floor nothing short of slammin
It's Goin Down, hey, hey, hey,
I know it like I know my name
can't take my eyes off this sweet thing I found
a honky-tonk honey walking around
gotta make my play, must be my lucky day
oh yeah baby, It's Goin Down
oh yeah baby, It's Goin Down
She was swayin her hips to the music, ice cold corona in her hand
the way she moved her body Damn! put me in a trance
gave her a little squeeze we rocked all night long
bam! we locked eyes made our own love song
(Chorus)
Got my hands around her waist, she's moving closer
I'm holding on tight like i'm a roller coaster
I came in low, she got me flying high
baby girl it's gonna be a helluva ride
(Chorus)
It's Goin, It's Goin, It's Goin Down
It's Goin, It's Goin, It's Goin Down
It's Goin Down, It's Goin Down, It's Goin Down
Down, Down, Down
Down, Down,Down
Down, Down, Down

DON'T PROMISE ME SUNSHINE(AND BRING ME RAIN)
Here I stand with my heart at stake
I don't know the right move to make
should I let go of what I feel inside
I know someday I'll chance it somehow
if it must be, it might as well be now
who knows which way the fork will turn
but I guess it's time for me to learn
but, Don't Promise Me Sunshine and bring me rain
Don't promise me comfort and bring me pain
if you could leave my heart in one
after all is been said and done
that's all I ask of love
Don't say you'll always be with me
just take each day and just let it be
it's true your love is what I need
oh, but nothing in life is guaranteed
if we want to make the most of this
let's trust in love we sure can't miss
as long as you feel you want to share
I'll give my all as long as your here
but, Don't Promise Me Sunshine and bring me rain
Don't promise me comfort and bring me pain
if you could leave my heart in one
after all is said and done
that's all I ask of love
Repeat Chorus- ad-lib to fade

IF MY WORDS COULD TELL YOU
I find it hard for me to explain
just what you mean to me
you turned my whole life around so suddenly
you have made me smile
like I never smiled before
and now I feel worthwhile
I could never ask for more
If My Words Could Tell You
what's inside of my heart
what has been from the start
you will see that I love you
and that's how it has been
from the time you came into my life
I find it hard for me to believe
a love could be this real
It's something I never thought
that I could really feel
you took my cloudy skies
and changed them into blue
and that's one reason why
all I have belongs to you
If My Words Could Tell You
what's inside of my heart
what has been from the start
you will see that I love you
and that's how it has been
from the time you came into my life
If My Words Could Tell You
If my words could tell you
what's inside of my heart
you would see that I love you
if my words could tell you baby
what's inside of my heart

CONCRETE FLOOR TO PRAY ON
Everybody's talking about it
he made the headline news
he's been my best friend all my life
the kind you never want to lose
he has a heart as big as Texas
trouble never knew him well
but in the blink of an eye
his world has gone straight to hell
cause, He sleeps with eyes wide open
has steel bars for windows
on his knees asking forgiveness
for what he's done
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
The way the story goes
that fateful Saturday night
got off work a little early
planned to do it up right
smiling he opened up the door
and felt run over by a train
she was in their bed, in another man's arms
poor boy must have gone insane
now, he sleeps with eyes wide open
has steel bars for windows
on his knees asking forgiveness
for what he 's done
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
The crowd gathered at the scene
as they led him away
blinding lights flashing
tears rolling down his face
a broken hearted man
scars deep down within
and as it now stands
nobody wins
cause he sleeps with eyes wide open
steel bars for windows
on his knees asking forgiveness
for what he's done
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
A Concrete Floor
Everybody's talking about it

FLOATING ON AIR
You got me Floating On Air
and I can't come down
I'm Floating On Air
since you came around
you're the cool breeze that makes me fly
day and night I'm on a natural high
got me Floating On Air, I'm Floating On Air
Hey, girl, I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't keep my mind off you too
hey girl since the day you stopped and said hello
I've been on a roller coaster ride
the ground has moved from under my feet, girl
you blow me away completely
you're the cool breeze that makes me fly
you got me Floating On Air
and I can't come down
I'm Floating On Air
since you came around
you're the cool breeze that makes me fly
day and night I'm on a natural high
got me Floating On Air, I'm Floating On Air
Hey, Girl, you must think I'm a fool
cause I'm trying so hard to play it cool
hey, girl, you can tell I melt like snow
cause, where you lead my heart, will follow
my friends wanna know what's happening to me
you're to blame girl, it's no mystery
you're the cool breeze that makes me fly
(Chorus)
So girl don't you keep me guessing
I have just one little question to ask
can I be your king
will you be my queen
we got it covered from A to Z
(Chorus)
Hey, girl, you got me floating on air (4x)

YOU HAD TO GET A LITTLE (TO LOSE A LOT)
I was feeling kind of frisky
waiting for you to come home
thinking about what I"ll do
to make you never want to roam
surfing thru the channels
just to waste some time
but the breaking news about you and her
blew my mind
and I just have to know
Was the grass greener on the other side
was it trimmed in gold
worth all those lies
was it that good, was it that hot
You Had To Get A Little to lose a lot
what did she do that I havn't done
what a fool to think I was the only one
was it that good,was it that hot
You Had To Get A Little to lose a lot
It was only yesterday
you made me come alive
when you took me in your arms
said baby I'll always be your guy
you were really just
an undercover lover
leaving a string of broken hearts
but you've been discovered
and I just have to know
(Chorus)
It's hard to believe
our love was a lie
you weren't the guy
you pretended to be
but time heals all wounds
and I'll get over you
(repeat chorus)

I'M LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU
WOKE UP AT THE BREAK OF DAWN
ROLLED OVER FOR A KISS
INSTEAD IT WAS THE PILLOW
PRESSED AGAINST MY LIPS
POURED ONE CUP OF COFFEE
THOUGHT OF US FOR A WHILE
NOT A DAY GOES BY
I DON'T MISS YOUR SMILE
MY WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN
BUT BABY, I'VE FOUND
THAT, I'm learning to breathe without you
trying to find my way
I'm learning to breathe without you
I'll take it day by day
until I do
get over you
ALL DAY WHILE AT WORK
I KEPT PICKING UP THE PHONE
ALMOST DIALED YOUR NUMBER
BUT,YOU'RE NOT COMING HOME
LATER AT THE DINNER TABLE
THERE WAS AN EMPTY CHAIR
AND IT WAS KILLING ME
THAT YOU WEREN'T SITTING THERE
BUT, I REFUSE TO BE A VICTIM
I'LL GET YOU OUT OF MY SYSTEM
CAUSE, Chorus
SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE
I'VE FELL DOWN
AND GOT UP STRONGER
THIS CAN'T LAST MUCH LONGER
I'LL GET MY SECOND WIND
LEARN TO LIVE AGAIN
CAUSE, CHORUS
I'M LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY
I'M LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU
I'LL TAKE IT DAY BY DAY
UNTIL I DO
GET OVER YOU

FIXING UP OUR HOUSE(BREAKING UP OUR HOME)
We put up a new fence today
even planted a new tree
everything is looking picture perfect
except for you and me
life look so good on the outside
but you wouldn't know
We were fixing up our house
and breaking up our home
the years keep rolling on
I want to know how we
can repair a love so torn
tell me who's been fooling who
we took a walk by our neighbors today
with our painted smile
walking hand in hand as they say
but separated by lies
the years have come and gone
and look what we own
We were fixing up our house
and breaking up our home
the years keep rolling on
I want to know how we
can repair a love so torn
tell me who's been fooling who
I don't want to believe
it's all just decoration
inside of these four walls
and that there's no need for celebration
don't let this be a hopeless situation
We were fixing up our house
and breaking up our home
the years keep rolling on
I want to know how we
can repair a love so torn
tell me who's been fooling who
We were fixing up our house
and breaking up our home
the years keep rolling on
I what to know how we
can repair a love so torn
tell me who's fooling who
