Lyrics - pg 11

Desire, Lying Here With Linda On My Mind, Prisoner of the Highway, Suburbia, Stranger Things Can Happen, Don't You Ever Get Tired of Hurting Me

"Desire"

I wake up with it each morning take it to bed every night
I feel it taking control when I turn out the light
Just like a lonesome coyote just like a dog on the prowl
I got this burning inside makes me wanna howl
Chorus:
Every move that you make is fueling the fire
Every ounce of my soul is feeling desire
From the day that I met you the first time I looked in those eyes
I felt my knees getting weak ok felt my temperature rise
You're all I taste in my coffee you're all I dream when I sleep
You're every whisper I hear everything I can see
Repeat Chorus
I want you to want me too
Can't think of nothing but bein' with you
Repeat Chorus

"Lying Here (With Linda On My Mind)"

Now I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be the one I left behind
And Lord it's killing me to see her cr..yyy
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind
Yes I know that I once loved her
And I placed no one above her
And I never thought I'd ever set her free
But it just wasn't in my plans
The way Linda squeezed my hand
The first time that I held her close as she danced with me
She said I've loved you for such a long time
But you're married to a friend of mine
And I try hard to never let it show
But my love for you is stronger
And I can't hide it any longer
And so I thought I'd better let you know
Now I'm lying here wiith Linda on my mi..innnd
And next to me..my soon to be..the one I left behind
And lord it's killing me to see her cry...yyy
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind

"Prisoner of the Highway"

Diesel power 
Eighteen wheels to rolling
as I pull it on to the interstate
I've got thirteen hours to make my destination
And I don't wanna stop to check my weight
There won't be no sleep for me tonight,  no
I've gotta be hitting Tulsa by first morning light
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
I've run freight out of Wheeling, West Virginia
And U.S. steel from Bethlehem
I've rolled tobacco out of the Carolinas
California wines into Birmingham
Some people work just to survive...yeah
But up here in this cab
That's where I'm most alive
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of my load
I've got a wife living back in Tennesee
And she tries to understand the way I feel
I could get my hands to another line of work
But my heart would always be behind the wheel
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of my load
Don't you know...I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of my load..let it play..let it play

"Suburbia"

You drive in to work each day
Wondering if it's worth the pay
There's got to be a better way..in suburbia
And as your stocks and bonds mature
How come you feel so insecure
God will they ever find a cure...in suburbia
Suburbia..keep the charcoal burning
Suburbia...as the world keeps turning
Suburbia...watch the years escaping
Still you sit there waiting..in suburbia
I can't explain my ups and downs
They say something's going 'round
Hypoglysemia abounds...in suburbia
There's change in my anatomy
That's affecting my ability
God what will happen next to me...in suburbia
Suburbia...keep the charcoal burning
Suburbia..as the world keeps turning
Suburbia..watch the years escaping
Still you sit there waiting in suburbia
Will someone come and rescue me
From all this mediocrity
To what I see on my TV
In Suburbia...keep the charcoal burning
Suburbia..as the world keeps turning
Watch the years escaping
Still you sit there waiting in suburbia
Suburbia...you can keep the charcoal burning
Suburbia..as the world keeps turning
Suburbia..you can watch the years escaping
As you sit there waiting...in suburbia

"Stranger Things Have Happened"

I keep talking to your picture
But a smile is all you say
It's a lonely conversation
But missing you is easier this way
Last night a shadow filled the doorway
And I heard footsteps on the stairs
Then I woke up this morning and thought I saw you standing there
Stranger things have happened
And I'll always believe if stranger things can happen
You could still come back to me
One touch is worth a thousand pictures
What might have been ain't worth a dime
I just hope someday I'll hold you
Another place some other time
Stranger things have happened
And I'll always believe if stranger things can happen
You could still come back to me
If stranger things can happen
You could still come back to me
Stranger things have happened

"Don't You Ever Get Tired of Hurting Me"

You make my eyes run over all the time
You're happy when I'm out of my mind
You don't love me but you won't let me be
Don't you ever get tired of hurting me
You must think I look bad with a smile
For you haven't let me wear one in such a long, long while
Still I keep coming back, how can this be
Don't you ever get tired of hurting me
Yoooooou must think I look bad with a smile
For you haven't let me wear one in such a long long while
Still I keep coming back how can this be
Don't you ever get tired of hurting me
Don't you ever get tired of hurting me
