Bound down that long, lonesome highway just as fast as I can fly
Just wanna go to someplace you won't be
I'm movin' on to a new place and hold my head up high
Where no one knows what you done to me
A thousand miles between us now
And still some how
These blues'll track me down
Down that long, lonesome highway just as far as I can go
‘Til I outrun your memory

~Steve Earle, Long, Lonesome Highway Blues

Going down that long lonesome highway
Bound for the mountains and the plains
Sure ain't nothing here gonna tie me
And I got some friends I'd like to see
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way

One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Yes I'm going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way.

Well, it's a long lonesome road
Through the lifetime of a trucker
But me and this here ol' truck
We gonna make it

Well, it's a long lonesome road
And the miles of life are many
But me an' these eighteen wheels
We gonna take it

It's a long way to go
And the road ahead is troubled
But this ol' rig and me
We gonna make it

~C.W. McCall. Long Lonesome Road

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

Three coins in the fountain
Through the ripples how they shine
(Just one wish will be granted)
(One heart will wear a valentine)

from all that is in me
i say these words with freedom on my tongue
i give to you all of me
in this crazy world our life has just begun
no one can take that away
it just keeps pouring out
like juice form berries on the vine
nowhere is where i would be
without you with me
valentine

Well I can hardly wait
Until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
Well I can hardly wait
Until I feel that thrill in my heart that starts inside your eyes
And the song in my head that burns so good on my tongue
Yes I will
yeah yeah
Yes I will
yeah yeah

Yes I will

I'm gonna do all the things for you
A girl wants a man to do
Oh, baby
I'll sacrifice for you
I'll even do wrong for you
Oh, baby

Every minute, every hour
I'm gonna shower, you
With love and affection
Look out, it's comin' in your direction
And I'm,

I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will

Look here,
My love is strong, you see
I know you'll never get tired of me
Oh, baby
And I'm gonna use every trick in the book
I'll try my best to get you hooked
Hey, baby

And every night, every day
I'm gonna say
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you
Look out boy, 'cause I'm gonna get you

I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
And I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
You know I will

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize - don't patronize me

Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't

I Can't Make You Love Me ~Bonnie Raitt

So sing me no sad songs, tell me no lies
Please don't you make me blue
Sing me no sad songs, tell me no lies
Girl, I can do without you

~Elton John, Sing me no sad songs
