Lonely Lane · 3 October 2003
C Am F G
Well I walked on down that lonely lane again
C Am F G
No gal for me to walk with hand in hand
C Am F G
You stole my heart and quickly left again
F G C
My life will never be the same
Chorus:
Am Em
You said you’d love me forever for all time
Am F G
I said I was yours and you said you were mine
Am Em
I thought that forever, I would live on Lonely Lane
Am F G
But you came and I’ll never be the same
You came up to me and put your hand in mine
You just couldn’t leave our hearts are intertwined
I said I am yours and you said you were mine
Our lives will never be the same
Chorus
So we walked on down that lonely lane again
And when we kissed the spark turned into flame
You said with me you always would remain
Our lives will never be the same
Chorus
When you said, “I do,” at the church on Lonely Lane
I knew our love forever would remain
Now we walk through life together hand in hand
Our life, our love is still the same
The two of us, forever will remain

Why? · 2 October 2003
I know it’s been said, “Only the good die young.”
On this I must agree
For just last night my baby up and died
Left me in misery
I just cried…
Chorus 1:
Why?
Do the good die young
Instead of those of us
Who just do everything wrong
Is it because
They don’t need a second chance
When they hear the music
They just get up and dance
But tell me, “Why?”
Did my baby leave me
Is it my punishment
Oh please don’t deceive me
Just tell me why.
I sat there in pain, in rage, and in sorrow
And everything in between
A mama’s/daddy’s not supposed to watch her baby die
Now what does my life mean?
I asked God…
Chorus 1
When the rage subsided and the sorrow faded
And the tears went dry
In the quiet of my empty room
I thought I heard God cry
And He asked me…
Chorus 2:
Why?
Can’t you learn to trust Me
Instead of doubting
Don’t you know I love you
Is it because
You don’t think it hurts me
I lost my Son too
Your loss is my misery
But tell me, “Why?”
Can’t you go on living
You’ll see your baby
Just keep on believing
Please tell me why.
I sat there stunned I didn’t think I had lost faith
But then maybe I had
My baby was in a better place now
Someday I won’t be so sad
Now I don’t ask…
Chorus 1

Time Is All I Need · 1 October 2003
I remember when you used to drop me off at school
When you’d kiss me goodbye I’d feel like such a fool
But when I told you to get away from me
You weren’t supposed to go off and watch your TV
When what I need from you is…
Chorus:
Time – Daddy don’t keep walkin’ through that door
Time – Your attention’s what I’m lookin’ for
Time – Mama I just want some time to share
Time – And to know you’ll always be there
Time is all I’m really lookin’ for
And maybe one thing more
I want to hear the words, “I love you.”
I used to hate interrogations at the dinner table
You got me to tell all the tales that I was able
But then we stopped having family meals
Just ‘cause I told you it was no big deal
But what I need from you is…
Chorus
You used to pry so deep into my life
I told you to quit causing me such strife
But when I would tell you to go away
You were supposed to sit and stay
‘Cause what I need from you is…
Chorus
