"Room With A View" (2001)




Georgia lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

If I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia
Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound
There was a time when I'd do anything for you
But this time, baby, I won't turn around, yeah

I always wanted to get married
And I thought you were the one
But you never ever asked me
And I was tired of hangin' on

You know a girl can only be let down
So many times before she runs
And now this little bitty town's
Only got room for one of us, yeah

You always said I'd never leave
And if I did I wouldn't go far
So I know how I must look
With my tank 'a gas and beat up heart

Well baby I'm gone for good
You can count on that
Yeah, I'm gonna keep headin' west
Till I'm too far gone to come back, yeah

And if I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia
Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound
There was a time when I'd do anything for you
But this time, baby, I won't turn around

I only got ten miles to go
Before I cross the state line
I can feel my hands shakin'
'Cause they usually turn the wheel around about this time

I heard that same ol' voice inside
I had to drown it out
So I found me a radio station playin' something fast
And I turned it up real loud

And if I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia
Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound
There was a time when I'd do anything for you
But this time, baby, I won't turn around

There was a time when
I'd do anything for you
But this time, baby oh I won't turn around, yeah
No, I won't turn around

If I'm not over you By Georgia
Then I'll head to Alabama
Roll on to Mississippi or maybe Louisiana
I'll drive all the way to California

Oh, I won't turn around
No, I won't turn around
No, I won't turn around
No, I won't turn around

Turn around, turn around
I won't, I won't turn around
I won't, I won't turn around
No, I won't turn around

I won't, I won't turn around
I won't turn around
I won't, I won't turn around
I won't turn around
I won't, I won't turn around
I won't turn around

Just Another Girl lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

You always had a way with words
So you can just imagine when I heard
You say she would be your wife
Yeah it cut me like a knife
It wasn't very long ago
I was the one that you would hold
All through the night
Yeah so this just doesn't seem right
I could try and win you back
But I'm the one who left
Guess I gotta except that now I'm

[CHORUS:]
Just another girl
Yeah, I'm just another girl
I used to be the queen
I used to be the one who rocked your world
And now I'm just another girl

Sure looks like you adjusted well
For someone who swore there was no one else
And I couldn't be replaced
That's obviously not the case
Peel away my coat of pride
You're bound to see the sting
Over some little ring
Now I'm...

[CHORUS:]
Just another girl
Yeah, I'm just another girl
I used to be the queen
I used to be the one who rocked your world
And now I'm just another girl

[BRIDGE:]
Another time another place
Another girl another face

[CHORUS:]
Just another girl
Yeah, I'm just another girl
I used to be the queen
I used to be the one who rocked your world
And now I'm just another girl

I'll Think Of You That Way lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

There must have been a reason
We first got together
There must have been a reason
We use to talk forever
It's hard to see it now
'Cause it's easier to think
Of what went wrong

I could keep pointin' fingers
I could stay mad as hell
Just let my anger linger
But as far as I can tell
I've just got to let it go
If I wanna move on

[Chorus:]
So I'll think about how you made me laugh
Not think about how you made me cry
Think about how we both swore
We'd love each other till we died
Forget about who's to blame
Just remember your smilin' face
It's a choice I've had to make
So I'll think of you that way

Seems like I paint you now
In colors of forgiveness
I lost the pain somehow
And in its place there is this
Part of me that sees you in the light
I saw you in before

[Chorus:]
So I'll think about how you made me laugh
Not think about how you made me cry
Think about how we both swore
We'd love each other till we died
Forget about who's to blame
Just remember your smilin' face
It's a choice I've had to make
So I'll think of you that way

Love Is Always Worth The Ache lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

I'm through playin' it safe
It's time I laid it on the line
Wanna dance out on the edges
Get a little reckless in my mind
Cause even a heart that's locked away, can find a way to break
I won't hide it now, I'm through making that mistake

[Chorus:]
One fall, thats all
I don't know who it's gonna be
Out there, somewhere
Someone is waiting just for me
No pain, no gain
There's not a chance that I won't take
Cause love is always worth the ache

Love's like a Vegas wheel
You've got to spin to win the prize
But it's a gamble worth the taking
You say a prayer and then you roll the dice
They say it's hard to beat the odds,
I say it's harder not to try
I will play the game,
Do what it takes to get it right

[Chorus]

They say it's better to have loved and lost
Than to have never loved at all

[Chorus]

Complicated lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

I'm so scared that the way that I feel is written all over my face
When you walk into the room I wanna find a hiding place.
We used to laugh, we used to hug, the way that old friends do.
But now a smile and a touch of your hand just makes me come unglued.
It's such a contradiction
Do I lie or tell the truth?
Is it fact or fiction?
Oh, the way I feel for you.

It's so complicated
I'm so frustrated,
I wanna hold you close, I wanna push you away,
I wanna make you go, I wanna make you stay.
Should I say it?
Should I tell you how I feel?
Oh, I want you to know, but then again I don't,
It's so complicated.

Just when I think I'm under control, I think I finally got a grip,
Another friend tells me that my name is always on your lips.
They say I'm more than just a friend, they say I must be blind.
Well, I admit that I've seen you watch me from the corner of your eye.
Oh, it's so confusing,
Yeah,I wish you'd just confess.
But think of what I'd be losing,
If your answer wasn't yes.

It's so complicated
I'm so frustrated,
I wanna hold you close, I wanna push you away,
I wanna make you go, I wanna make you stay.
Should I say it?
Should I tell you how I feel?
Oh, I want you to know, but then again I don't,
It's so complicated.

I hate it
Cause I've waited so long for someone like you.
What do I do?

Oh, Should I say it?
Should I tell you how I feel?
Oh, I want you to know, but then again I don't.
It's so complicated.

It's so complicated.
It's so complicated.

I Don't Want You To Go lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

Monday morning is such a rush uh-uh uh yeah
here it is again sneaking up on us uh-uh uh yeah
this is the part you know I don't like 
we say goodbye and then we kiss goodnight uh-uh uh yeah
I know it's one o'clock and you said you would be gone by 10
so much for those 8 hours I swore that I'd get in

[Chorus:]
I know I should get some sleep 
I am at the beginning of another long week
but I don't want you to go 
no I don't want you to go
I guess another minute wouldn't do no harm 
why not spend it in each other's arms 
cuz I don't want you to go 
no I don't want you to go

We always say just one more kiss uh-uh uh yeah, uh-uh uh yeah
but it always seems to never end like this uh-uh uh yeah, uh-uh uh yeah
a few dozen and a couple more 
before we know it its after 4
I know tomorrow my best friend will be my coffee cup
cause here we go again watching the sun come up 

[Chorus]

I know tomorrow my best friend will be my coffee cup 
because here we go again
watching the sun come up oh yeah

[Chorus]

You Are lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

The sunlight on my shoulder
The smile on my face
My secret weapon
My favorite place
The reason my heart skips a beat
The broom that sweeps me, off my feet

A gentle inspiration
My weary soul's salvation
The half that makes me whole
The gravity that grounds me
The arms I want around me
Never letting go

I've lived, I've lived enough
To know what is, and what's not
You are - you are

All the love I wanna make
Every breath I wanna take
The rush thats running, down my spine
The touch that takes me every time
An innocent seduction
I can't get enough and
I can't help but let it show
I lose all my composure
I'm totally exposed and
The reason I let go is...

I've lived, I've lived enough
I know what is, and whats not
You are - you are

My every hope, my every dream
You are my everything

I've lived, yeah
I've lived enough
I know what is, and I know whats not
You are - you are
you are - you are

Th sunlight on my shoulders, the smile on my face
My secret weapon, my favorite place

Masterpiece lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

There were forty little houses 
And a place they called High River
And everyone knew 
Tim since the day he was born
He was a little different, 
Some might call it slow
But when Nelly moved to town she saw his heart of gold
They found each other and never spent another day apart
Whoever would have dreamed that in his quiet eyes 
She'd find the peace to make her life complete

[Chorus]
Oh you could say it was a work of art 
That someone took a brush and painted their hearts
Together they made such a beautiful thing
Oh if there was anything that they could do right
It was painting love in the perfect light
So we could see that love is a masterpiece

Tim always had a little trouble with letters and numbers
So Nelly paid the bills and read all the mail
No one worked harder for miles around
Tim was the best farm hand 
And Nelly was proud
A year went by of saving their nickels and dimes
They had a little boy
They named him Daniel
He became their pride and joy

[Chorus]

Everyone said that they were so close to heaven 
That they didn't have far to go
Somehow it all made sense they went together
That night on that dark road

[Chorus]

Hey
Love is a masterpiece
Love is a masterpiece
Hey yeah 
Love is a masterpiece
Is a masterpiece 
Love is a masterpiece
Love is a masterpiece
Love is a masterpiece

Little Bit Of This, Little Bit Of That lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

Little bitty baby takes her first step
Out in the big ole world
Falls on her butt
And picks herself up
Daddy says that's my girl
You go to school
Subtraction and addition
You learn to give and take
Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
You're gonna make mistakes

It takes a little bit of this
Hoah with a little bit of that
A little bit of good
Yeah with a little bit of bad
You know that life's a contradiction
And you can't escape the fact
You gotta take a little bit of this
With a little bit of that

Hoah
Well two hearts and opposite attraction
It's just their luck
They fall in love
He wants it his way
And she wants it hers
Working out all that stuff

It takes a little bit of this
Hoah, with a little bit of that
A little bit of good
Yeah with a little bit of bad
You know that life's a contradiction
And you can't escape the fact
You gotta take a little bit of this
With a little bit of that

It all makes sense
Once you discover
You can't have one without
You can't have one without the other
It takes a little bit of this
Hoah with a little bit of that
Oh a little bit of good
Yeah with a little bit of bad

It takes a little bit of this
Hoah with a little bit of bad
A little bit of good
Yeah with a little bit of bad yeah
You know that life's a contradiction
And you can't escape the fact
You gotta take a little bit of this
With a little bit of that

Hoah yeah
A little bit of this
That this that
Hoah yeah
Oh yeah
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
Little bit of this

One Day Closer To You lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

My married friends keep asking
When I'll settle down
They tell me time is passing
And there's not too many good ones still around
I tell them I am not afraid to be alone
And there's no need to rush into something wrong

So I'm not gonna worry
No, I'm in no hurry
It's in the hands of fate, there's nothing I can do
And it might be tomorrow
Or the one that follows
Got the rest of my life to look forward to
'Cause every day is one day closer to you

You might be in Montana
Living in the hills
Or you might be in Virginia
Working in a mill
All I know is that I haven't found you yet
And, who knows, maybe we've already met

So I'm not gonna worry
No, I'm in no hurry
It's in the hands of fate, there's nothing I can do
And it might be tomorrow
Or the one that follows
Got the rest of my life to look forward to
'Cause every day is one day closer to you

Oh, every day I pray that God will keep you safe
'Cause I know you're out there somewhere

So I'm not gonna worry
No, I'm in no hurry
It's in the hands of fate, there's nothing I can do
And it might be tomorrow
Or the one that follows
Got the rest of my life to look forward to
'Cause every day is one day closer
Yeah, every day is one day closer
Every day is one day closer to you, yeah

Room With A View lyrics - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

They gave you a corner room on the fifth floor
The city lights were like candy, to a kid in a store
Like a king you would lay in your bed so statefully
So thankful they gave you a room with scenary

You always were so healthy, so full of life
So seeing you so helpless, just didn't seem right
But how you kept your head so high I'll never know
I guess you knew you had a better place to go

[Chorus:]
Now you've got a room, with a view
A window to the world 
You always had your sights set high
And now that you're gone, your memory lives on
And I see you smiling in my mind 
With angels as visitors dropping by
Your room with a view

I'll always miss you 
I'll always feel the loss
I have to remind myself that you're better off
I gotta believe even through these tears of mine
Wherever you are there's a sun that always shines

[Chorus]

With angels as visitors, dropping by
Your room with a view
