You betrayed my trust.

This much I must say

our relationship didn't turn out the way

I planned it to be.

Your lack of character shocked me.

It's my fault for falling for you

without my eyes wide open to the truth.

When I saw something that wasn't there

I should have went somewhere

far away from you.

Not only did you take my trust in you

but you left my innocence forever blue.

I know I can count on you tonight
even though we used to fight.
I look forward to our date night.
In memories I delight.
In this dark world you are my light.
I'd like to keep you in my sight.
In memories I delight.
I want to dance in the moonlight
and see the stars twinkling bright.
In memories I delight.
Come on and hold me tight.
We can dance to the song we both like.
In memories I delight.
You don't love me anymore
not since our divorce in '94.
In memories I delight.
For now we are two song birds
sitting in the same tree.
We both are free.
In memories I delight.
So see you on date night.
It makes us feel alright.
In memories I delight.

I'm not lying.

When I'm dying

loving you will be

flashing through my mind.

All of our time together

will be of utmost importance ever.

All of my memories will spill over

like a flood gate.

Knowing what's at stake

I wouldn't change it.

Our love will be for all time.

Don't worry, it'll all be fine.

My heart I leave behind.

By Bonnie Gail Carter

They took me into a bar.

They started CPR.

They thought I was dead.

My heart started beating instead.

In the hospital, I awoke.

They said I had Heat Stroke.

Now I'm not afraid to die.

There I'll be looking down from the sky.

I'll be your silend angel guarding you from danger.

No, I won't be a stranger.

The wind will brush by and you'll feel me nearby.

Softly, warmly hurting me

teaching unknown feelings,

bringing out the person I used to be

before fear imprisoned me.

Freeing me for only a short time

and dissolving trust in love

with the mention of another.

I found myself running to something familiar for security

to erase what our time had taught me.

Only what was once familiar seemed strange

because I had changed.

All of the times you drank whiskey and beer

I became a target as you grew angrier.

With each hour that passed

I knew what my fate would be at last.

You didn't allow me to wear make-up.

Perhaps you was afraid we would break up.

My clothing had to be loose-fitting

or you would take your knife and slit them.

You had to be in control of everything

or you would beat me like I wasn't worth anything.

It took all of my courage to runaway

but I'm free from fear today.

Hear the distinctive sound of a Harley.

Just gaze upon it's beauty.

Feel the wind blowing through your hair.

It's a wind song

that only the chosen can feel and hear.

By riding solo the intensity of freedom

encompasses your very being.

By riding in groups the brotherhood emerges

and an all powerful feeling surges.

Some are born to ride.

Few realize it's true glory.

I am destined to ride to the wind song

because I chose a Harley Davidson.

The Devil's face was on your shoulders.

I ran for the door when you showed your face

only you beat me to the place I could escape.

You said, "now that you've seen me I can't let you go

you are here for tonight and forever more.

You are my prisoner."

A night of fun ahead turned out to be a gun to my head.

I told him to go ahead and put me out of my misery.

He ripped off my clothes and had his way with me.

Even though it took six years

I used what he had taught me against him

and I escaped to a much better fate.

If I had known what I know now

I would have changed a lot of things

starting with me.

Or I'd just like sitting on the porch

holding hands and sneaking a kiss

or turning on the car music

and dancing in the moonlight mist.

At least once in my life

I would have gone skinny dipping.

I'd take more chances

on love at first sight

when the spark is in the eyes

and I'd make love last no matter what.

Why am I lonely in a crowd?

The crowds are so loud.

When I speak

my knowledge they don't seek.

Am I not seen

in the crowds I've been?

I makes me feel depressed

to be so repressed.

Listen to me, I'm talking to you!

Where is reciprication from you?

Do my words just float in space?

Can't you keep up the pace?

Is arrogance your flaw?

Is that why you don't let me talk?

My hair is turning gray.

yet still I have to say

I'll love you always.

All of the nights I've danced with you

in my eyes you'll see it's true.

You are everywhere

and even in my dreams I'll see you there.

We've never been seperated

because I would be devastated.

I promise you I will always stay.

Never will I keep you at bay.

You're my life for all of my days.

By Bonnie Gail Carter

When I couldn't see beyond this world,

when I was falling down the black hole

I called out your name and you came.

You are greater than any black crater.

The depth of your love and grace fills my soul.

Your mercy abounds and your armor surrounds me.

My prayers are heard.

Thank God for the word.

So many unspoken words,

the silent moments together

are what I seem to remember.

The dark still of the night

makes me wish with all of my might

that you hadn't taken flight.

It was too late when you came back.

I had already grieved

as deeply as a broken heart could.

The memories then of us are seen

like flashes on a movie screen.

Am I destined to come unraveled

from this lonely road I've traveled?

By Bonnie Gail Carter

When you love a man give him all you've got.

Love him the way you want to be loved.

Hug him and gently caress his skin.

Kiss him every chance you can.

Look into his eyes with love in them.

Speak lovingly about him.

Tell him when you want to share your love with him.

Always be affectionate towards him.

Above all tell him you appreciate him

and tell him you love him for always

I've cried a river.
It must reach far and wide
because I lost the one I loved.
The tears flow from my eyes
every time I think of you.
You took it the wrong way
when you saw me driving that day.
Just because he was in the car
it didn't mean that it went that far.
The two of you just pushed and shoved.
In the end nobody won.
I've cried a river.
It must reach far and wide
because I lost the one I loved.
The tears flow from my eyes
every time I think of you.
