One Promise To Late
Reba McEntire
I would have waited forever
If I'd known that you'd be here
We could have shared our lives together
And held each other close all through the years
But I met someone before you
And my heart just couldn't wait
So no matter how much I adore you
I've got to stand behind this promise that I made
Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you when I gave my heart away
All my life, I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late
I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you
I can't have you but I never will forget you
Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you when I gave my heart away
All my life, I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late
Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you when I gave my heart away
All my life, darling, I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late
If I Had Only Known
Reba McEntire
If I had only known
It was the last walk in the rain
I'd keep you out for hours in the storm
I would hold your hand
Like a life line to my heart
Underneath the thunder we'd be warm
If I had only known
It was our last walk in the rain
If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again
I'd memorize each thing you ever said
And on those lonely nights
I could think of them once more
Keep your words alive inside my head
If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again
You were the treasure in my hand
You were the one who always stood beside me
So unaware I foolishly believed
That you would always be there
But then there came a day
And I turned my head and you slipped away
If I had only known
It was my last night by your side
I'd pray a miracle would stop the dawn
And when you'd smile at me
I would look into your eyes
And make sure you know my love
For you goes on and on
If I had only known
If I had only known
The love I would've shown
If I had only known
She Thinks His Name Was John
Reba McEntire
She can account for all of the men in her past
Where they are now, who they married, how many kids they have
She knew their backgrounds, family and friends
A few she even talks to now and then
But there is one she can't put her fingers on
There is one who never leaves her thoughts
And she thinks his name was John
A chance meeting, a party a few years back
Broad shoulders and blue eyes, his hair was so black
He was a friend of friend you could say
She let his smile just sweep her away
And in her heart though she knew that it was wrong
But too much wine and she left his bed at dawn
And she thinks his name was John
Now each day is one day that's left in her life
She won't know love, have a marriage or sing lullabies
She lays all alone and cries herself to sleep
'Cause she let a stranger kill her hopes and her dreams
And all her friends say what a pity what a loss
And in the end when she was barely hangin' on
All she could say is she thinks his name was John
She thinks his name was John
If You See Him, If You See Her
Reba McEntire (with Brooks & Dunn)
If you see him, tell him I wish him well
How am I doing? Well, sometimes it's hard to tell
I still miss him more than ever
But please don't say a word
If you see him
If you see him
If you see her, tell her I'm doin' fine
And if you want to, say that I think of her from time to time
Ask her if she ever wonders where we both went wrong
If you see her
If you see her
I still want her
And I still need him so
I don't know why we let each other go
If you see her, tell her the light's still on for her
Nothing's changed deep down the fire still burns for him
And even if it takes forever, say I'll still be here
If you see him
If you see her
If you see him
If you see her
When You're Not Trying To
Reba McEntire
Let me try to explain
It's not the roses or champagne
That really touch my heart
How can I make you see
You're the best at lovin' me
When you don't know you are
Baby it's the way that you reach out while you're sleepin'
And gently hold my hand the whole night though
It's how you listen when I'm pouring out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to
You don't need to rehearse
Some sweet romantic words
To whisper in my ear
So just forget the poetry
What comes naturally
Is what I long to hear
Baby it's the way that you reach out while you're sleepin'
And gently hold my hand the whole night though
It's how you listen when I'm pouring out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to
It's in your eyes
And in your smile
In the passion of your kiss'
It's takin' me in your arms so easily
So easily
It's how you listen when I'm pourin' out my feelings
Baby when I feel the most from you
Is when you're not tryin' to
Is when you're not tryin' to
when you're not tryin' to
