Take Me As I Am (1993)


Take Me As I Am lyrics - Faith Hill

Baby, don't turn out the light
I wanna see you look at me
Whisper only truth tonight
Not just promises and empty fantasies

I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (Strong heart)
A gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am

Baby, I need for you to know
Just exactly how I feel
Fiery passions come and go
I'd trade a million pretty words
For one touch that is real

I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (Strong heart)
A gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am

I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (Strong heart)
A gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
Oh, I am

From someone with a strong heart (Strong heart)
A gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am

Wild One lyrics - Faith Hill

They said, "Change your clothes,"
She said, "No, I won't."
They said, "Comb your hair."
She said some kids don't
And her parents' dreams went up in smoke

They said, "You can't leave."
She said, "Yes, I will."
They said, "Don't see him."
She said, "His name is Bill."
She's on a roll and it's all uphill

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

She loves rock-and-roll
They said, "It's Satan's tongue."
She thinks they're too old
They think she's too young
And the battle lines are clearly drawn

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

She has future plans
And dreams at night
When they tell her life is hard
She says that's alright
Yeah

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

Just About Now lyrics - Faith Hill

Just about now
I'd be watching you wake up
Feeling my heart beat with yours
Just about now
Is when we would make love
Like all of the mornings before
But I know it don't help to turn the clock back
'Cause I'm not gonna make it
'Til I face this fact

This is not about trying to go back in time
This is not about where I'll be a year down the line
It's just moment to moment
Surviving somehow
This is not about then
This is just about now

Just about now
You'd pull in the driveway
And I'd be there waving hello
Run to my arms
You'd kiss me and hold me
As if you'd never let go
And it's just about now when the tears start to fall
I wonder if I'm gonna make it at all

This is not about trying to go back in time
This is not about where I'll be a year down the line
It's just moment to moment
Surviving somehow
This is not about then
This is just about now

It's just moment to moment
Surviving somehow
This is not about then
This is just about now

Piece Of My Heart lyrics - Faith Hill

(originally by Erma Franklin)

Didn't I make you feel
Like you were the only man?
And didn't I give you everything
That a woman possibly can?
Each time I tell myself I think I've had enough
Well, I'm gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough
So come on, come on, come on

And take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Take another little piece of my heart, I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now, baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good

You're out on the street looking good
Baby, deep down in your heart you know that it ain't right
No, you'll never hear me crying
You know I cry all the time
Each time I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms and I start singing once again
So come on, come on, come on

And take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Take another little piece of my heart, I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now, baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good

Each time I tell myself
That I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms
And I start singing once again
So come on, come on, come on

And take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Why don't you just take it?
Take another little piece of my heart, I know you will
And you'll break it
Break another little piece of my heart now, baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good

Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Why don't you take
Take another little piece of my heart, I know you will
And you'll break it
Break another little piece of my heart now, baby
Take another little piece of my heart, my heart, my heart, my heart
My heart

I've Got This Friend lyrics - Faith Hill (feat. Larry Stewart)

[Faith Hill:]
I've got this friend who is lonely
She's afraid she'll never find her one and only
A little shy, but she can be fun
If the right guy came along
Would you know someone?

[Larry Stewart:]
I've got this friend and it sounds crazy
But he's been feeling that way too a whole lot lately
And interested, oh, I'm sure he'd be
I can almost speak for him
He's that close to me

[Faith Hill & Larry Stewart:]
Maybe in each other
They might find the lover
They've been missing until now
They'd trust the judgment of
Two friends like us who care so much
Can we get them together, somehow?

[Faith Hill (Larry Stewart):]
I've got this friend
(Yeah, I think I know her)
(My arms can almost feel the way he'd hold her)
Oh, it's like he's here when you describe him
And if he's anything like you, I'm know she'd like him

[Faith Hill & Larry Stewart:]
Maybe in each other
They might find the lover
They've been missing until now
They'd trust the judgment of
Two friends like us who care so much
Maybe in each other
They might find the lover
They've been missing until now
Oh, oh
They'd trust the judgment of
Two friends like us who care so much

[Faith Hill (Larry Stewart) {Both}:]
{Can we get them together?}
Can we get together? (Can we get together?)
{I've got this friend}

Life's Too Short To Love Like That lyrics - Faith Hill

Baby, we had something going strong
Boy, I've never seen nothing so right go wrong
You used to wanna love me day and night
We used to never wanna ever leave paradise
Now we sleep at night back to back
Life's too short to love like that

You never wanna kiss me anymore
You run around and I walk the floor
You know I used to mean everything to you
Now I'm last in line and that just won't do
I feel blue, you feel trapped
Life's too short to love like that

You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enough's enough
I give and give without gettin' back
Life's too short to love like that
Life's too short to love like that

It's way too late for a wake-up call
And I ain't gonna wait for those tears to fall
Yeah, I used to think we could work things out
But if you don't wanna change, then there's no doubt
The fire is out and that's so sad
Life's too short to love like that

You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enough's enough
I give and give without gettin' back
Life's too short to love like that
Life's too short to love like that

You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enough's enough
I give and give without gettin' back
Life's too short to love like that
Life's too short to love like that

But I Will lyrics - Faith Hill

Remember when I said the next time would be the last time
That time came this morning when you came in
You always had a line to change my mind
So I guess you thought I'd just let you break my heart again

I don't wanna stop loving you, but I will
I don't like waking up alone, but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go, but I will

I could write a book on the innocent looks you're giving me
You've got one for every story you tell
I've seen it all and I'm not gonna fall
For those make believe tears
So darling, I will try to make it clear

I don't wanna stop loving you, but I will
I don't like waking up alone, but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go, but I will

You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go, but I will

Just Around The Eyes lyrics - Faith Hill

Just around the eyes
That's where you remind me
Of someone I left behind me
I'm sorry if I stare
But you must have stirred a memory
And it caught me by surprise

But it was only for a moment
And just around the eyes

Something in your touch
Took me back a long way
And made me say the wrong name
I wish I could explain
But if I had to tell you
Where a small resemblance lies

It's something in your touch
and just around the eyes

I'm over him completely
I rarely think about him at all
So when I look at you
Tell me, what should I do?
With the little bit of him that I saw

Only when you smiled
You could have bowled me over
A memory out of nowhere
That came and went so fast
Don't tell me I still love him
That has to be a lie

It's just something in your touch
And only when you smile

And only for a moment
Just around the eyes

Go The Distance lyrics - Faith Hill

You got me headed in a new direction
Got no reason to turn around
Ain't got no looking back or second guessing
It's time to find what love is really all about

Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feeling's way too strong
Go the distance this time

The road to love is paved with shifting gravel
We may find ourselves on shaky ground
And there ain't no place that these two hearts can't travel
Even when we're miles apart together, we are bound to

Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feeling's way too strong
Go the distance this time

There will be rainy days
And bridges left to cross
But if we lose our way, we can't get lost if we

Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feeling's way too strong
Go the distance this time

We're gonna go the distance, baby
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feeling's way too strong
Go the distance this time

I Would Be Stronger Than That lyrics - Faith Hill

There's a friend who will call
When her husband's asleep
Crossing the phone lines for comfort
And she cries that she needs him
And someday he'll change
And now's not a good time to go
And it isn't my place to say "Leave him and run"
That no love is worth all the damage he's done
But if she'll hold her ground
Then I'll hold my tongue
Ever the diplomat
Oh, I'd like to think
That I would be stronger than that

Where's her head?
Where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh, I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that

It started out good, they usually do
Then one day it's taken for granted
'Til words become weapons and love turns to pain
Oh, why is she still holding on?
She says living without him is too hard to face
And I try to imagine myself in her place
But with well chosen words and well placed tears
She forgives him in two seconds flat
Oh, I'd like to think
That I would be stronger than that

Where's her head?
Where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh, I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that

I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say
That my life and her life are like night and like day
And her love is the love that will save him
Brave words, but I don't believe them

Where's her head?
Oh, where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh, I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that

Oh, I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that

All I Ever Wanted lyrics - Faith Hill

Open up my heart, start to feel again
Take another step, now I understand
All the time I waited, all my faded plans
Every single tragedy was leading up to

Someone that loves me like you
In a world full of broken promises
You were my portrait of truth
And, suddenly, I confess

All I ever wanted, all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was you
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed
All I ever needed was you
It took a little pain, I found what I believe in
All I ever needed was you
You open up my eyes
Finally I'm seeing
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed was you

I ignore the stars, each and every day
Don't give 'em credit, 'cause all they ever did was bring me pain
Waited for a love, I didn't have a name
You could call me crazy, but it's all I had to keep me sane

Now out of the darkness comes a light
And I feel like I'm staring at the sun
The shadowy cast feels so right
It took so many wrongs to find the way

All I ever wanted, all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted was you
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed
All I ever needed was you
It took a little pain to find what I believe in
All I ever needed was you
You open up my eyes
And finally I'm seeing
That all I ever wanted, all I ever needed was... you

All I needed was you
I played a part
Acting like I knew just who you are
Traded every day that I can love anyone but you

I played a part
Acting like it's written in the stars
Knowing this was killing me
And I
I said I can't make it through
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed

It took a little pain to find what I believe in
All I ever needed was you
You open up my eyes
Finally I'm seeing
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed was you

I taught this heart not to live a lie
(All I ever needed was you)
It took so long just to realize
All I ever needed was you

American Heart lyrics - Faith Hill

She's up before the sun, on the run
Another dollar, another day, another cup of coffee
Thank you Lord for giving me one more
She still leans on her dreams but it seems
Sometimes she's the only one who still believes
That life is hard, so she takes it on
With an American heart

And it beats like a drum down in New Orleans
Sings like a Motown melody
It dreams like California
Bigger than the Texas sky
It bleeds
It scars
But it shines when times get hard
And you can't break an American heart

From the small town Friday night lights
To the Broadway neon burning up bright
We're all the same and it's in our veins
A spirit that you can't keep down
A fire inside that'll never burn out
If you are the owner of
An American heart

'Cause it beats like a drum down in New Orleans
Sings like a Motown melody
It dreams like California
Bigger than the Texas sky
It bleeds
It scars
But it shines when times get hard
And you can't break an American heart
An American heart

And it beats like a drum down in New Orleans
Sings like a Motown melody
It dreams like California
Bigger than the Texas sky
It bleeds
It scars
But it shines when times get hard
You can't break
You can't break an American heart
An American heart
An American heart

God Bless America
Land of the free
God Bless America

Boy lyrics - Faith Hill

You can buy me, you can buy me any little thing
Any little thing will do
As long as it's from you
You can take me, you can take me any little place
Place where we can be alone
Baby, that's all I want

You don't have to change the world
For me to be a happy girl
It's just a kiss, it's just a word
And I know you love me, boy
You don't have to move a mountain
Even though I believe that you can
It's just a look, it's just a touch
And I know you love me
That's how you show me, boy

I can see it, I can see it every single day
Right there in your eyes
I know you're all mine
I can feel it, I can feel it down into my bones
I'm everything you want

You don't have to change the world
For me to be a happy girl
It's just a kiss, it's just a word
And I know you love me, boy
You don't have to move a mountain
Even though I believe that you can
It's just a look, it's just a touch
And I know you love me
That's how you show me, boy

You don't have to change the world
For me to be a happy girl
It's just a kiss, it's just a word
And I know you love me, boy
You don't have to move a mountain
Even though I believe that you can
It's just a look, it's just a touch
And I know you love me
That's how you show me, boy
That's how you show me

Come Home lyrics - Faith Hill

Hello world, hope you're listening
Forgive me if I'm young
Or speaking out of turn
But there's someone I've been missing
And I think that they could be
The better half of me
They're in the wrong place trying to make it right
But I'm tired of justifying
So I say to you

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
To fight for you is all I've ever known
So come home

I get lost in the beauty of everything I see
The world ain't as half as bad
As they paint it to be
When all the sons, all the daughters stop to take it in
Then hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now
Maybe I'm just dreaming out loud
But until then

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
To fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known
Come home

Everything I can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why I need you here
Everything I can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why I need you here
So hear this now

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
To fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
To fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known
Come home

Hello world, hope you're listening
There's someone I've been missing

Come home

Hello world, hope you're listening
There's someone I've been missing

Hello world, hope you're listening
There's someone I've been missing

I'm home

Come To Jesus lyrics - Faith Hill

Oh, my baby, when you're older
Maybe then you'll understand
You have angels to dance around your shoulders
'Cause at times in life you need a helping hand

Oh, my baby, when you're prayin'
Leave your burden by my door
You have Jesus standing at your bedside
To keep you calm, to keep you safe, away from harm

Worry not my daughters
Worry not my sons
Child, when life don't seem worth livin'
Come to Jesus and let Him hold you in His arms

Oh, my baby, when you're cryin'
Never hide your face from me
I have conquered hell and driven out the demons
I have come with a light to set you free

Worry not my daughters
Worry not my sons
Child, when life don't seem worth livin'
Come to Jesus and let Him hold you in His arms

Oh, my baby, when you're dying
Believe in His healing hand
Here in Heaven we will wait for your arrival
Here in Heaven you will finally understand
Here in Heaven we will wait for your arrival
Here in Heaven you will finally understand

Worry not my daughters
Worry not my sons
Child, when life don't seem worth livin'
Come to Jesus and let Him hold you in His arms

Give In To Me lyrics - Faith Hill

(from "Country Strong" soundtrack)

I'm gonna wear you down
I'm gonna make you see
I'm gonna get to you
You're gonna give in to me

I'm gonna start a fire
You're gonna feel the heat
I'm gonna burn for you
You're gonna melt for me

Come on, come on
Into my arms
Come on, come on
Give in to me

You're gonna take my hand
Whisper the sweetest words
And if you're ever sad
I'll make you laugh
I'll chase the hurt

My heart is set on you
I don't want no one else
And if you don't want me
I guess I'll be all by myself

Come on, come on
Into my arms
Come on, come on (come on)
Give in to me

I'll use my eyes to draw you in
Until I'm under your skin
I'll use my lips, I'll use my arms
Come on, come on, come on
Give in to me

Give in to me
Give in to me

I Need You lyrics - Faith Hill (feat. Tim McGraw)

I wanna drink that shot of whiskey
I wanna smoke that cigarette
I wanna smell that sweet addiction on my breath
I wanna ride across West Virginia in the back seat of a Cadillac
You know some cowboys like me go out like that
So I need you

Like a needle needs a vein
Like my uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs a rain
I need you
Like a lighthouse on the coast
Like the Father and the Son need the Holy Ghost
I need you

I wanna get lost in some corner booth, Cantina Mexico
I wanna dance to the static of an AM radio

I wanna wrap the moon around us, and lay beside you skin on skin
Make love 'til the sun comes up, 'til the sun goes down again
'Cause I need you

Like a needle needs a vein
Like my uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs a rain
I need you
Like a lighthouse on the coast
Like the Father and the Son need the Holy Ghost
I need you, oh, I need you

I wanna drink that shot of whiskey
I wanna smoke that cigarette
You know some cowboys like me go out like that
So I need you, whoa I need you
I need you I need you I need you, I need you

I need you I need you I need you

It All Comes Down To Love lyrics - Faith Hill

Straight shot of misery
Some days make a mess of me
I touch the ground when I can find my feet
You know it all comes down to love

I tell myself I can do it all
I juggle everything
I drop the ball
Sometimes it feels my life's impossible
But then it all comes down to

Love
I'd love to take you on a time machine
Fill those cracks things fall between
So we could find more days to fly away from the hurricane
But in the ebb and flow
It all comes down to love
Oh, it all comes down to love

Yeah, yeah, yeah

The clock chimes
The babies cry
I turn around and they've grown so high
As I let 'em grow
I watch 'em fly
You know it all comes down to love

I light the candles and I cut the cake
Make a wish for every heart that breaks
Sweet forgiveness never made a mistake
You know it all comes down to

Love
I could love you 'till my heart's content
So you must be Heaven sent
The way you sweep me up in your arms in the middle of an argument
And you let me know
It all comes down to love
Oh, it all comes down to love

Take you down to guts and the rubble
Diggin' up the deeper stuff
You gotta trust when you're runnin' into trouble
That it all comes down to

Love
Love
Love
Love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it all comes down to love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Lost lyrics - Faith Hill

Is it obvious to you
When you walk into a room
Your face is all I see
And my heart races so fast
I never knew a rush to feel like that
Every time you're touching me

I never did believe in anything
I couldn't hold between my fingers
But the way you make me feel
It's just so real the way it lingers

I get lost
Inside your stare
Lost
When you're not there
When everything I have doesn't mean a thing
If it's without you
If it's a dream
Don't wake me up
I'll scream
If this isn't love
If bein' lost means never knowin'
How it feels without you
I wanna stay lost forever
I wanna stay lost forever
With you

No this feeling doesn't end
It's with me everywhere I am
Hope it never goes away
It's like defying gravity
Losin' all control and bein' free
And I always wanna stay

I never thought that I'd let go
Long enough to fall for someone deeply
Who had the power to erase my fears
And find me so completely

I get lost
Inside your stare
Lost
When you're not there
When everything I have doesn't mean a thing
If it's without you
If it's a dream
Don't wake me up
I'll scream
If this isn't love
If bein' lost means never knowin'
How it feels without you
I wanna stay lost

Don't tell me where we're goin'
I don't wanna know
I like the mystery
I can't believe we've come this far
So far away from where we started off
You found me when I wasn't lookin'
You found me

And now I'm lost
Inside your stare
Lost
When you're not there
And everything I have doesn't mean a thing
If it's without you
Without you
If it's a dream
Don't wake me up
I'll scream
If this isn't love
If bein' lost means never knowin'
How it feels without you
Yeah if bein' lost means never knowin'
How it feels without you
Oh if bein' lost means that I'm never
Gonna be without you
I wanna stay lost forever
I wanna stay lost forever
With you

Never Gonna Be Your Lady lyrics - Faith Hill

I tried to say it politely
I tried to give you a clue
All your gold don't excite me
That old trick just won't do

Still you keep spending money
But there's blood on the pearls
Don't call me babe, don't call me honey
And think you rule my whole world

'Cause I'm never gonna be your lady
I'm not the fool you think I am
I'm never gonna be your lady
And you will never be my man
That's right

Well, listen
I bet your wife don't know nothin'
About your sordid affairs
You've got greed mixed up with lovin'
And love mixed up with flair

But I'm never gonna be your lady
I'm not the fool you think I am
I'm never gonna be your lady

All your funky business
See you in jail
You might buy the other, but baby, I'm not for sale
I'm not for sale...that's right

'Cause I'm never gonna be your lady
I'm not the fool you think I am
Yeah, I'm never gonna be your lady
And you will never be man

No, I'm never gonna be your lady
I'm not the fool you think I am
Oh, I'm never gonna be your lady
And you will never be my man
Never gonna be my man

Now listen to me
That's right, I told you
Never gonna be my man
Let me tell ya something boy
You can keep trying all you want to try
But it's never gonna work
You don't have a thing that I need
And you sure ain't got a thing I want

Oh, no
Never be your lady

Red Umbrella lyrics - Faith Hill

Sometimes life can get a little dark
I'm sure I've got bruises on my heart
Here come the black clouds full of pain
Yeah, you can break away without the chains

Your love is like a red umbrella
Walk the streets like Cinderella
Everyone can see it on my face
So let it rain, it's pourin' all around me
Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown me
After all I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain

You can wear your sorrow like an old raincoat
You can save your tears in a bottle made of gold
But the glitter on the sidewalk always shines
Yeah, even God needs to cry sometimes

Your love is like a red umbrella
Always there to make me better
When my broken dreams are fallin' from the sky
Let it rain, it's pourin' all around me
Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown me
After all, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain
Oh, let it rain
Let it fall, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain

Let it wash my tears away
Tomorrow's another day, yeah

So let it rain, it's pourin' all around you
Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown you
After all I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain
Oh, let it rain, let it fall, I'm gonna be okay
So let it rain, it's pourin' all around me
Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown me
After all I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain
Oh, let it rain, let it fall, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain
Oh, let it rain

Where Are You Christmas lyrics - Faith Hill

Where are you, Christmas?
Why can't I find you?
Why have you gone away?
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me?
Why can't I hear music play?
My world is changing
I'm re-arranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too?

Where are you, Christmas?
Do you remember
The one you used to know?
I'm not the same one
See what the time's done
Is that why you have let me go?

Christmas is here
Everywhere, oh
Christmas is here
If you care, oh
If there is love in your heart and your mind
You will feel like Christmas all the time

I feel you, Christmas
I know I've found you
You never fade away
The joy of Christmas
Stays here inside us
Fills each and every heart with love

Where are you, Christmas?
Fill your heart with love

Who I Am lyrics - Faith Hill

(from "Mad About You" soundtrack)

Might scare me to death or chill my bones
Break my heart or warm my soul
But since I'm here and before I go
I'm gonna find out who I am

Late one cold thanksgiving night
They welcomed me, another 60's child
To a family that's holding tight
That's part of who I am, yeah

I got a mama who prays for me
She fights the devil down on her knees
I can't see all that mama sees
But it's part of who I am

She gave me truth and she watched me grow
I told her lines and I test the rope
Then I tried a little bit of everything I know
Just to find out who I am

Who I am, does it matter anyway
Who I am, what I've seen along the way
Who I am, changes a little everyday
With a lot of truth and an open heart

I just want half a chance
As long as I'm here and before I go
Just to find out who I am

Music is my soul's delight
Comes to me both day and night
It gives me wings and it gives me flight
And it's part of who I am

I hold onto a simple faith
About the choices and the path I take
That through the good and the bad mistakes
I'm gonna find out, yeah

Who I am, does it matter anyway
Who I am, what I've lost along the way
Who I am, it changes a little everyday
With a lot of truth and an open heart

I just want half a chance
As long as I'm here and before I go
Just to find out

Did it ever really matter in that big forever plan
Who I am and what I'm here for I don't know
Is it wrong to want an answer, try to understand

Who I am, does it matter anyway
Who I am, what I've learned along the way
Who I am, it changes a little everyday
With a lot of truth and an open heart

I just want half a chance
As long as I'm here and before I go
Just to find out who I am, who I am

Why lyrics - Faith Hill

(originally by Rascal Flatts)

You must have been in a place so dark
You couldn't see the light
Reachin' for you through the stormy cloud
Now here we are gathered
In our little hometown
This can't be the way you were meant to draw a crowd

Oh why, that's what I keep asking
Was there anything
I could have said or done
Oh, and I, I had no clue you were masking
A troubled soul, God only knows
What went wrong and why
You would leave the stage
In the middle of a song

Now in my mind I keep you frozen
As a seventeen-year-old
Rounding third to score the winning run
You always played with passion
No matter what the game
When you took the stage you'd shine just like the sun

Oh then why, that's what I keep asking
Was there anything
I could have said or done
Oh, and I, I had no clue you were masking
A troubled soul, God only knows
What went wrong and why
You would leave the stage
In the middle of a song
Your beautiful song

Now the oak trees are swaying
In the early autumn breeze
And a golden sun is shining on my face
Through tangled thoughts I hear
A mockingbird sing
And whole this old world really ain't that bad of a place

Oh but why, there's no comprehending
And who am I to try to judge or explain
Oh, but I, I have one burning question
Who told you life wasn't worth the fight
They were wrong and they lied
Now you're gone and they cry
'Cause it's not like you to walk away
In the middle of a song
Your beautiful song
Your absolutely beautiful song
