There's no space between us/ Right now we are timeless.
So I want to tell you/just how much I love you!
Let's make more mem'ries/ while the clock's still moving.
Before time passess/let's dance all the dances.
Let's enjoy this moment/ 'Cause we can't relive it.
Let's write our story/And share it proudly
Every time you hold me/ we're making hist'ry
So I'll feel each moment/not afraid to own it!
How can I regret any moment that led to you standing beside me today
Every heartbeat reminds me/ Today's not behind me
Every heartbeat reminds me/ we're all on this journey/we lead or we follow/to get to tomorrow/to be with each other again.
Every heartbeat reminds me/ the path that's behind me/ has been walked out by others/who struggled and suffered/ when their world came tumble-ing down.
Every heartbeat reminds me/ the path that's behind me/ carried teardrops and laughter/ And sometimes an answer/ to the questions I couldn't let go.
Every heartbeat reminds me/ the path that I'm climbing
Every heartbeat reminds me/ the path that's behind me. Carried mem'ries of sorrow, and hope for tomorrow/But nothing was written in stone
Every heartbeat reminds me/ that the mountain I'm climbing/ Is just part of the journey/ I don't need to worry/
Every heartbeat reminds me/ There's someone beside me
There is HOPE for tomorrow/ I just need to follow....
There is how for tomorrow/ so I'll learn to follow
Life's not just behind me
Life's not quite behind me
We're here for each other
Catch every grain of sand
This world's always changing
The world's always turning
(And or I'll) cry when I need to
Don't wait 'til it's too late
Leave no room for regrets
Make mem'ries that matter
Embrace what love offers (thank you, Keith)
Make time for what matters
Embrace what comes my way
Take time for family, and make time for friends
Keep every promise I made to myself.
Stop by for a visit, make time for us.
End my good byes with a hug and a kiss
(2nd couplet) The past may be gone/But my will remains strong.
I know I can't go back/And find what I once had/if I could I would run/And before that day's done/You'd be the jewel in my crown.
I know I can't go back/ To change what I could have
I'm alive and I'm breathin '/yeah that's enough reason/to promise myself that somehow
Stuck again in the evening traffic/how much longer can I keep at this?
Tucked away in the bedroom closet/ memories in cardboard boxes/ marked 'My Life'/'My Life'.
You know I'm not the betting kind / And I'm never gonna change your mind!
(Keithcurtis) Well you hide your self/
Never mind the reasons/
Feel the felt/
Bet on the line/
(Merilee) Grab the dice/
Throw ‘em for a hopeless ride/(BNC)
And I’m never gonna change your mind.
(PatriciaA) So I show my cards / Lay ’em on the table/(Merilee) Time to fold/lay it all down /(keithcurtis)You check your hand / (Merilee) hoping that you're right this time.
(So I show my cards / Lay ’em on the table – PatriciaA)/ Will you fold/ Are you all in (brief, suspenseful pause) / You grab the dice/ And throw em for a HOPELESS ride! I’m never gonna change your mind.
(So I show my cards / Lay ’em on the table - PatriciaA)/ Will you fold/ Are you all in (brief, suspenseful pause) / You grab the dice/ And throw em for another ride! I’m never gonna change your mind.
So I show my cards / Lay ’em on the table (PatriciaA)/ Will you fold/ Are you all in /Winner takes all /or maybe we'll share the prize! But I'm never gonna change your mind.
I rest my case / Think I won you over/ (But) for Love's sake/ I'll call it a tie/ let's just stop/(and) Save it for another time. 'Cause I'm never gonna change your mind.
I rest my case/ Hope I won you over / Either way/ Time to move on/ You and I have better ways to spend our time/ And I'm never gonna change your mind!!
So I rest my case/ Think I won you over/ Either way/ let's call it a day/ we can find/ a better way to spend our time/ And I'm never gonna change your mind!
So I rest my case/ Think I won you over/ Either way/ (It's) time to move on/ You and I/ should spend our time being kind. Cause I'm never gonna change your mind!
Now I'll rest my case/ Take a little breather/(A) change of pace/(and) we'll be alright.
So I rest my case/ Take a little breather
In the middle of your heart/Hidden out of sight/There's a little part/Captured by the light/Revealing to the dark/The notion that I might...
In the middle of your heart/ hidden out of sight/ bullseye('s) in the dark/ reason shines a light/ hoping to impart/the notion that I might....
In the middle of your heart/hidden out of sight/ you feel a little spark/ reason shines a light/revealing to the dark/ the notion that I might/ might just/ might be right
Lookin' for a ray of hope, just a simple glance will do. It's not seein' eye to eye I know, but certainly the start of something new.
I'm searching for a ray of hope, (And) Watching for the slightest chance, to really let our love light glow, let's forget our disagreements and dance!
You and I are so alike, It took awhile to figure that out. When we share a laugh and smile, we forget what we were fusin' about.
Verse 3 re-Work using same phrases: I could state my case, try to win you over, scream and pace, tangled in pride, what a waste, to argue till the end of time.
You and I are so alike, Surprised we couldn't figure that one out. When you flash that killer smile, I forget what we were talking about.
(Edit) Fire away! Hope I hit the bullseye, what we say, shouldn't tear us apart. I'll follow the high road and swallow my foolish pride, 'cause I'm never gonna change your mind!
Fire away! Going for the bullseye. What we say, shouldn't tear us apart. I'm gonna take the high road and swallow my pride, cause I'm never gonna change your mind.
Well I could show you a map- Draw you a picture- Read the facts, line by line- but what's the point- I'd just be wasting our time, cause I'm never gonna change your mind!
I'm never gonna change your mind, I see the flames burnin'in your eyes.
I was never gonna change your mind, you're the type that holds (onto) a grudge. So I finally gave up, quit tryin', and decided to depend on luck.
You're never gonna change my mind, the last time was the very last time.
I'm never gonna change your mind, but I thought you'd like to know...
I'm never gonna change your mind, but your heart might listen to reason.
I'm never gonna change your mind, why beat my head against the wall?
You're never gonna change my mind, you can't convince me to live a lie.
You're never gonna change my mind, I'd be a fool to believe your lies.
I'm never gonna change your mind, but your heart will convince you, to try one more time.
You're never gonna change my mind, you know I mean it, we're out of time.
I was never gonna change your mind, so I gave up, stopped tryin'
One kiss and my heart started beating
Makes you crazy and your heart starts reeling
Woke me up, gave my life new meaning.
There ain't one kiss I'd wanna take back girl, you rocked my whole world, there's no regret
There ain't one kiss I'd take back, girl, You changed my whole world, I can't forget
There's one kiss I'd take back, girl, when you said the L-word and stole my heart.
You were telling quite the story about a lover from your past
Now That I know what You Knew (back then)
Far back as I remember we were joined at the hip, our relationship, was one for the books.
