Just Friends (1995)

You said "Hey baby we got to get out of this town
"Too many busy people bringing us down."
So you loaded up the truck
And I bought gasoline
You said I'm glad that we're just friends
But I think I know what you mean
(Yeah I know what you mean)
.......................................................................................
(Chorus)

Because I could be your tommorow and I could be your forever
But I could be your no not now and I could be your never
Because we're just friends-friends for the open road
But if by chance you fall in love will you please let me know
........................................................................................
I know I have heard your stories about each and every one
How they hurt you and they left you when they were done
And I swear that I have driven you a thousand dusty miles
I would drive a million more if that would make you smile
Cause God I love your smile..
(Repeat Chorus)
......................................................................................
And maybe somewhere along the way you'll decide
That forever isn't really that long of a time
And maybe somewhere along the way you'll see
The one thing you've been searching for all this time is me
(Repeat chorus)
And if by chance I fall in love, you'll be the first one...to know

Drive Slowly By My House (2000)

Two lonely people in a lonely town
Got nothing better to do than drive around
We'd go to the places where the memories were
I'd talk about him-you'd talk about her
Then I noticed a change in your tone
When we'd drive by a familiar home

Drive slowly by this house
Look and see
I wonder if she's gotten over me
Drive slowly by this house
Looks like she's not at home
I sure hope her mama's not all alone

And driving with you it made the time pass
Each night we'd waste at least a tank of gas
I showed you the place where I got my first kiss
I showed you the place I thought I'd never miss
Then almost as if on cue
I'd lean over and say to you

Drive slowly by this house
Look that way
Is that another car in his driveway?
There's someone else in my house
Drive slowly by this house
Hope he's not in the yard
Explaining why we're here would be very hard

And in my mind I knew
We were buying time in between what was our separate lives
Oh I found myself
You found your ex-wife(This line is so trite-but its true!)
But I thank God for those late night drives
And even though leaving you has been hard
I still know the sound of your old car

So drive slowly by my house
Honey I don't care
Gaze into the windows baby
Stop and stare
Drive slowly by my house
Look and see
There is someone else in my house loving me

Drive slowly by my house
Baby drive slowly by my house
Drive slowly by my house
(repeat)

Drive slowly by my house
Honey I don't mind
I know you are just out on a late night drive
Drive slowly by my house
Its not far
Is that another girl sitting in your car?

Two lonely people in a lonely town
Got better things to do than drive around

Our Moon Tonight (1995)

That was our moon
Those were our stars
They were small dreams
But they were gonna take us far
But now its her(his) arms holding you tight
Oh someone's making promises on our moon tonight

Don't it make you worry
Oh Don't it make you sad
Someones sharing dreams
That we could have had

Those were our plans
And they were our schemes
It was our fault
That they burst at the seams
But now its her (his) words making it alright
Oh someone's making promises on our moon tonight

Doesn't it seem awful
Time and circumstance
Would you love me baby
Give me one more chance

That was our world
And it was our life
I was gonna be your girl (You were gonna be my girl)
I was gonna be your wife (You were gonna be my wife)
But now its his (your) ring thats giving off such a glowing light
Oh someone made a promis on our moon tonight

It doesn't seem fair
It doesn't seem right
That should have been our promise
On our moon tonight

17 Blocks (2000)

What we have isn't magical or mystical
And I would say its only physical
We think way too much
But if you want me to stay all you have to do is say
(All you have to do is say)

Its 17 blocks from your house to mine
And you can stay over just this time
It will only be for one night
And as long as you know its not love
It will be alright
It will be alright

We've both been burned by love before
You've had lots of women in and out this door
I am not that blind
I know what we have is not love,
We're just buying time
(We're just buying time)

But its 17 blocks from my house to yours
And I don't want to drive them anymore
Can I stay both day and night
And I know what we have is not love
And thats alright
And thats alright

Time goes by way too fast
Everyone said it wouldn't last
Its been all these years
If you want to know why I stayed
Let me make it clear
(Let me make it clear)

It was 17 blocks from my house to yours
And I just couldn't drive them anymore
I wanted to be with you for my whole life
And I guess we could call that love
Would that be alright
Would that be alright
I guess we could call that love
And it will be alright.
