   Personally my favorite album is Own The Night. Here are a few song lyrics featured on this album:



"Cold As Stone"

She left town early on a Friday
Headin' down to family in New Orleans
Said she needed to feel the sun on her face,
Talk it out with herself,
Try to get things straight.
Lord all I know is I don't wanna breathe.

I wish I was cold as stone,
Then I wouldn't feel a thing.
I wish I didn't have this heart,
Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain.
I could stand strong and still,
Watching you walk away.
I wouldn't hurt like this,
Or feel so all alone.
I wish I was cold as stone.

Almost turned around in Mississippi,
Pulled over on the shoulder along the way.
Thought by now, I'd be fine
But all these tears are blurring every line.
And I think back to when you were mine.

I wish I was cold as stone,
Then I wouldn't feel a thing.
I wish I didn't have this heart,
Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain.     
I could stand on my own
Letting your memory fade
I wouldn't hurt like this,
Or feel so all alone.
I wish I was cold as stone.

Yeah, it's gonna take forever to get over you.
Oh, and I don't think this pain's gonna go away.
Oh, scars left when it's said and done remain.

I wish I was cold as stone.
I wish I was cold as stone.

I wish I was cold as stone,
Then I wouldn't feel a thing.
I wish I didn't have this heart,
Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain.
I could stand strong and still,
Watching you walk away.
I wouldn't hurt like this,
Or feel so all alone.
I wish I was cold as stone.
I wish I was cold as stone.






"Love I've Found In You"

Well I bet my buddies are out on the town tonight
Dancing in this smoke, in the glow of the neon lights
I'm sure they're out there cutting up and drinking
But I don't mind cause I got you by my side
With my old sweat shirt and your favorite pair of jeans
Barefoot on the couch, Curled up next to me
Oh, I got everything I've ever needed
In you, I found it in you

Well maybe I'm just lucky
But maybe that's OK
Some people search the whole world over
Just to find a love, that's even half as true
As the love I've found in you
Uh uuu

Well I wonder where I'd be if the Lord hadn't heard my prayer
The one I said every night 'til the day that you got here
You showed me how to live and love forever
With you, oh baby I love you

Well maybe I'm just lucky
But maybe that's OK
Some people search the whole world over
Just to find a love, that's even half as true
As the love I've found in you
Uh uuu

Some things really last forever
And some things are meant to be
Like you and me
Ooh yeah

Let your love shine on
Shine on and on and on
Ooh, oh yeah

Well maybe we're just lucky
But maybe that's OK
Some people search the whole world over
Just to find a love, that's even half as true
As this love I've found in you
Uh uuu

I've found in you
I've found in you



"Somewhere Love Remains"

Here we go again
Sitting on the edge of leaving
You don’t have to speak
I can see it in your eyes
I know you too well
You know I can tell you’re hiding
Something inside

Baby just breathe in, breathe out
Before you turn around, just slow down
Think of all the love we’ve made
If we give it just one more try
Maybe we could stop this goodbye
I know through all this pain
Somehow somewhere love remains

You say don’t walk away
But baby give me one good reason
More than just a line
You better make it count this time
You told me but you never really showed me
That I’m worth the fight
Oh I’m worth the fight

Baby just breathe in, breathe out
Before you turn around, just slow down
Think of all the love we’ve made
If we give it just one more try
Maybe we could stop this goodbye
I know through all this pain
Somehow somewhere love remains

Love takes time to build its defenses
And trust takes time to tear down those fences
And what remains is stronger than ever before
So don’t walk out that door
I don’t wanna hurt anymore

So baby just breathe in, breathe out
The only time for love is right now
Forgive all of the mistakes we’ve made
If we give it just one more try
Maybe we could stop this goodbye
Through the fire and rain
Somehow somewhere
I know through all this pain
Somehow somewhere love remains

So baby just breathe in, breathe out

I never wanted to give up this fight
What if we give it baby one more try?
Let’s try, this time
Baby this time
Baby this time
Baby this time
