When you’re tempted just to let it slip away
Hold on, hold on
When bitter words just get in the way
Hold on, be strong

When you think you can’t hang in there anymore
And you know that any second you’ll be storming out the door
When you’ve vented all your anger
And there’s nothing left to say
Don’t you know a little love can go a long, long way

Pride will only lead to loneliness
Hold on, hold on
You’d better learn how to forgive and to forget
Before she’s gone

There’s bound to be some heartaches
Love is never an easy road
Just give it all you’ve got
With all your heart and soul
Don’t let misunderstandings stand in your way
There’s a remedy, there’s a remedy
A little love is all you need


Once you’ve vented all your anger
And there’s nothing left to say
Don’t you know a little love could go a long, long way

Here we are after all we’ve been
Acting like total strangers again
Making small talk to avoid anything too familiar
No more words, their not enough
On their self, that can say as much as my heart
When it knows what it wants and it wants you

I never should have taken you for granted
I won’t make that same mistake again
'Cause I’m ready now to give everything

Darling I, I’ll do whatever it takes
Break any walls in the way
That stand between you and me
I’ll lay my heart on the line
I’ll take the gamble this time
I’ll do whatever it takes
To get you back

Let’s cut through all of this red tape
Cast the doubts on your cautious face
To your eyes where I see there’s a willing surrender
You can’t hide the love you’re already feeling
You’re gonna have to let me in
There’s no way I’m gonna lose you again

Why the long face, why the tears
Why the suitcase after all these years
Can’t we talk about it, is it something that I said
Maybe if I held you, if you’d just come back to bed

Packing up to leave me, you say you’ve found
Loving on a fault line is shaky ground
Frightened by the shadow of the loving life we’ve known
Now you think you might be better off alone

Love has a mind of it’s own and it changes every day
Love has a mind of it’s own you know they used to say
Things have a way of looking different by day
And then at night when we’re all alone
Oh it’s crazy and blind but love has a mind of it’s own

You’ve found the heartache, you’ve lost your smile
That’s what happens when you put your love on trial
Let me make it better, I can do it if you stay
Bet you that by morning we can love your hurt away

You think you’ve found a problem that can’t be faced
Love's a pencil promise that time has erased
Call I didn't answer you were hurt when I should have known
Now you think you might be better off alone

Love has a mind of it’s own, it’ll bring it back to me
Love has a mind of it’s own, we’ve got a future you see
Love on the rise isn’t always our size, it’ll fit when love is full grown
Oh it’s crazy and blind but love has a mind of it’s own

Love has a mind of it’s own and it changes every day
Love has a mind of it’s own, you know they used to say
Love has a mind of it’s own. it’ll bring you back to me
Love has a mind of it’s own, we’ve got a future you see
Love has a mind of it’s own and it changes every day
Love has a mind of it’s own, you know they used to say

There were times we talked for hours
Of our love while summer flowers blossomed
Just outside the window where we lay
Words of love came easy as the gentle evening breezes
Whispered that our love had lived another day

Now the room is filled with hushes
As you move your silver brushes
From the dresser to the suitcase on the bed
A stony wall of silence
Separates us into islands
Filled with echoes of the angry words we said

It was just a lover’s quarrel
And it just got out of hand
The fury of a woman
Met the anger of a man
We spoke the truth so bitterly that it turned into a lie
Is this any way for us to say goodbye

We each demanded justice
Now the outline of the dust
Is all that’s left where once your ivory mirror lay
Both hell bent for survival
Of our pride love cannot rival
When the battle ends will anything be saved

There’s a peaceful place that I swear I’ve seen
In a photograph in all my dreams
Just waiting there just around the bend
Can’t wait to get to
Where the fast lane ends

Where the fast lane ends, where the fast lane ends
I’m gettin' off there, where the fast lane ends
It’s just a little way
I’ve got to go till then
I can’t wait to get to
Where the fast lane ends

Working overtime trying to kill myself
On the outside blind chasing fame and wealth
I want to spend some time with my laid back friends
I’m gonna do that
Where the fast lane ends

Where the fast lane ends, where the fast lane ends
I’m pullin' off there, where the fast lane ends
It’s just a little way
I’ve got to go till then
I can’t wait to get to
Where the fast lane ends

Where the fast lane ends, where the fast lane ends
I’m going back to
Where the fast lane ends
I’m gonna spend some time, (Gonna spend some time)
With my long lost friends (with my long lost friends)
I’m gonna do that
Where the fast lane ends

Sometimes we're friends
Sometimes we're strangers
Though there are tears
There's always love
It hurts when you cry
From words thrown in anger
Warm feelings run deep
But that's not enough

It takes a little rain
To make love grow
It's a heartache and a pain
That makes the real heart show
Where the sun always shines
There's a desert below
It takes a little rain
To make love grow

Hearts disagree
Then they grow closer
Honesty wins
When it's someone you trust
Forever takes time
True love is never over
It's filled with new starts
Just look at us

Always did the things you wanted
Even though I try to tell you
You never seem to see my point of view
Now it’s time to say goodbye
And see the things that I’ve been missing
I hope I find what I’ve been searching for

Looking for love, looking for love
Looking for love, looking for love
Looking for love, looking for love
Looking for love, looking for love

Friday night and I’m off and running
Had enough of this so called loving
Heartache’s all you ever get from me
Heading down this two lane highway
I don’t know if you’ll ever find me
Time to look for love, where can it be

If your mind is set on leaving
I wish it could have happened years ago
Is there no better ending
Than breaking all the hearts that love you so
Think of what your doing
Is your freedom worth the price we’ll have to pay
After all the trying times you survived
Don’t you think it’s a little late to say goodbye

Don’t you think it’s a little late to say goodbye
Start over in the middle of our lives
We’ll be turning years of love into a lie
Don’t you think it’s a little late to say goodbye

You say you’re feeling trapped
Held back by a golden wedding band
Gotta make your move now
'Cause time is slipping through your hand
What happened to forever
Did it only last until you changed your mind
We’ve been in love too long to let it die
Don’t you think it’s a little late to say goodbye

Tonight love without warning
Strolled right into this room
And amazed me like morning
'Cause the night is far from over
But the light is shining through

And there’s a rainbow at midnight
And the faint glow won’t lose
There’s a rainbow at midnight
Shining all the way from here to you

You can live life without dreaming
Or your dreams never come true
But to save me that worry
With a dream to keep believing
When the rest have fallen through

Heaven is saying
This time love won’t leave you
Never be afraid or blue
