Cupid Wasn’t Stupid
Verse 1
I thought I was smart,
Too smart for a dart
From some little fellow with wings.
I laughed at romance,
Said love had no chance,
I knew all about those things.
Then you walked by,
I looked in your eye,
And suddenly, wouldn’t you know,
That wise guy of mine
Called reason resigned,
And packed up his bags to go.
Chorus
I was too smart for Cupid,
At least that’s what I said,
Then one little arrow
Went straight to my head.
I knew every angle,
Had love down to an art,
But Cupid wasn’t stupid
He aimed right at my heart.
Verse 2
I studied the game,
Knew pleasure from pain,
Could spot every trick from the start.
But knowledge is grand
Till somebody’s hand
Comes casually stealing your heart.
I had all the answers,
Knew every last part,
Could talk like a genius
On matters of heart.
Then you gave me a smile
And gave my heart a spark
Turns out love has a way
Of outsmarting the smart.
Chorus
I was too smart for Cupid,
At least that’s what I said,
Then one little arrow
Went straight to my head.
I knew every angle,
Had love down to an art,
But Cupid wasn’t stupid
He aimed right at my heart.
Bridge
I ducked to the left,
I leaned to the right,
Kept up my defenses
Both morning and night.
That little marksman
Was smarter than smart
He missed every organ
And landed on heart.
Final Chorus
I was too smart for Cupid,
Or so I liked to say,
I thought I knew his every trick
And kept his bow at bay.
Then you walked in smiling,
And there went being smart
Turns out Cupid wasn’t stupid,
He aimed straight at my heart.
Outro
My heart
You went straight to my heart
I’m Used To You
Verse 1
I’m no good being alone,
I’m accustomed to having you near,
I’m used to your chair at the table,
To looking and finding you there.
Used to you in the early morning,
And when the day turns to night,
Used to your hand finding mine, my love,
Used to you making my heart take flight.
Chorus
I’m used to you,
And accustomed to us two.
If forever means more of we,
Then forever sounds just fine to me.
I’m used to you,
Like a song is used to its tune.
But familiar doesn’t mean I’m through.
After all these years, my dear,
There’s still one thing I’d choose:
Another lifetime getting
Used to you.
Verse 2
I’m used to the way you can read me,
Before I’ve chosen a word,
You still smile at the tales that I tell you,
Though every one you have heard.
And you always let me finish the story,
Still laugh like each one is new,
I’ve grown used to loving you fully,
But never once tried that's true.
Chorus
I’m used to you,
And accustomed to us two.
If forever means more of we,
Then forever sounds just fine to me.
I’m used to you,
Like a song is used to its tune.
But familiar doesn’t mean I’m through.
After all these years, my dear,
There’s still one thing I’d choose:
Another lifetime getting
Used to you.
Final Chorus
I’m used to you,
And accustomed to us two.
If forever means more of we,
Then forever sounds just fine to me.
I’m used to you,
And here’s what I’d like to do:
Spend whatever time I’ve got
Getting more
Used to you.
I’m used to you
Higher Than Blue
Verse 1
I thought I knew what heaven meant,
The moon above, the stars God sent,
A little wish, a little prayer,
And maybe love somewhere.
Then you came in and raised my eyes,
A little higher than the skies,
And heaven didn’t seem so far
With you inside my heart.
Chorus
You take me higher than blue,
Higher
Higher than my heart’s desire,
Higher than blue,
Higher
And every time a little higher.
Past the moon,
Past every star,
Heaven doesn’t seem so far
It feels so near
When I’m with you.
You take me higher,
Higher than blue.
Higher than blue
Verse 2
I’ve chased a few things in my day,
That looked like gold and turned to gray,
The things I thought would fill my heart
Would fade and fall apart.
Then you came in and changed my view,
Made old things somehow feel brand new,
You put forever in my heart,
And heaven in the room.
Chorus
You take me higher than blue,
Higher
Higher than my heart’s desire,
Higher than blue,
Higher
And every time a little higher.
Past the moon,
Past every star,
Heaven doesn’t seem so far
It feels so near
When I’m with you.
You take me higher,
Higher than blue.
Higher than blue,
Higher than my heart’s desire,
Higher than blue
Final Chorus
You take me higher than blue,
Higher
Higher than my heart’s desire,
Higher than blue,
Higher higher
And every time a little higher.
Past the moon,
Past every star,
Heaven doesn’t seem so far
It feels so near
When I’m with you.
You take me higher,
Higher than blue.
Outro
And when this little world is through,
I’ll still go higher,
Higher
Higher with you.
Higher
Higher than blue.
Autumn’s Grand Parade
Verse 1
The maples have a flair for red,
The oaks prefer their gold.
They dress the streets like movie stars
Before the nights turn cold.
You take my arm, we take our time,
No place we need to be.
The whole town came to see the leaves;
I came because of you and me.
Chorus
The trees can keep their gold,
The sky can keep its blue.
I came to see the colors, dear,
And stayed to look at you.
Let autumn have its grand parade,
Its crimson avenue.
The trees can keep their gold;
I’m going home with you.
Verse 2
You stop beside a little shop
To watch the window glow.
I say, “We’ve walked this way for years.”
You say, “I know. Let’s go.”
You laugh and pull me down the street;
The leaves begin to spin.
And somehow every year I find
A little more to love you in.
Chorus
The trees can keep their gold,
The sky can keep its blue.
I came to see the colors, dear,
And stayed to look at you.
Let autumn have its grand parade,
Its crimson avenue.
The trees can keep their gold;
I’m going home with you.
Bridge
By winter, all those colors
Will be scattered to the wind.
But when the year comes round again,
We’ll take this walk again.
And if the years put silver
Where the sunlight used to fall,
I’ll take your arm and tell you
You’re my favorite sight of all.
Final Chorus
The trees can keep their gold,
The sky can keep its blue.
I came to see the colors, dear,
And stayed to look at you.
Let autumn have its grand parade,
Its crimson avenue.
The trees can keep their gold;
I’m going home with you.
Yes, the trees can keep their gold
I’m going home with you.
Fall Into You
Verse 1
I know where I begin,
I know where I end,
I know the space between
A lover and a friend.
But dear, when you’re near,
Those lines just disappear,
And everything I thought I knew
Falls in to you.
Verse 2
I don’t know where I go
When you are holding me,
Somewhere beyond myself,
Somewhere I long to be.
The room is still the room,
The moon is still the moon,
But somehow all the world I knew
Falls in to you.
Chorus
I fall into you,
Like midnight into blue,
Like one sweet note
That disappears into a tune.
No me, no you,
Just something made of two,
Just let me fall,
Fall into you.
Final Chorus
I fall into you,
Like midnight into blue,
Like one sweet note
That disappears into a tune.
No me, no you,
Just something made of two,
So let me fall,
Let me fall,
Fall into you.
As Long as Blue Is Blue
Verse 1
As long as birds can sing,
As long as spring means green,
As long as morning makes the night depart,
As long as two and two
Keep adding up to four,
You can always count on me for more.
As long as I love you,
As long as one makes two,
As long as happy has a reason to be glad,
I’ll take the life we’ve got,
And thank heaven for the lot,
You’re the luck this lucky fool has had.
Chorus
As long as blue is blue,
I’ll be true to you,
As long as saying forever still means true.
As long as night has stars,
As long as ours means ours,
There’s only one thing I was born to do,
Keep falling more in love with you,
As long as blue is blue.
Verse 2
As long as clocks keep time,
As long as words still rhyme,
As long as dawn keeps showing up on cue,
As long as wrong is wrong,
As long as songs are sung,
I’ll keep finding something right in you.
As long as years roll by,
As long as tears can dry,
As long as yesterday gives way to new,
Let fashions come and go,
There’s one thing that I know,
Every love song I write points to you.
Chorus
As long as blue is blue,
I’ll be true to you,
As long as saying forever still means true.
As long as night has stars,
As long as ours means ours,
There’s only one thing I was born to do,
Keep falling more in love with you,
As long as blue is blue.
Final Chorus
As long as blue is blue,
I’ll be true to you,
As long as every old love song sounds new.
As long as hearts can choose,
I’ve got nothing left to lose,
I made my choice the day that I chose you.
And if the stars all fall through,
And the sky forgets its hue,
There’s one thing even heaven couldn’t undo,
I’ll still be true to you,
As long as blue is blue!
Lasso the Moon
Verse 1
If I could reach up and pull down the sky,
I’d tie up the moon and I’d bring it nearby,
I’d hang it outside where our little light shines,
And tell you forever is yours and is mine.
Chorus
I’d lasso the moon if you asked me to,
Pull down the stars and hand them to you,
And one thing I know will always be true,
It’s a wonderful life with you.
Verse 2
It’s coffee for two and your hand finding mine,
A walk with no reason, no finish, no time,
It’s knowing your footsteps, your laugh down the hall,
And somehow the small things don’t feel small at all.
Chorus
I’d lasso the moon if you asked me to,
Pull down the stars and hand them to you,
But heaven knows what I’ve already found,
Everything I need is right here now.
Let the whole world turn, let the years roll through,
I’ll still be right here beside you.
And one thing I know will always be true,
It’s a wonderful life with you.
Bridge
Heaven doesn’t have to feel so far,
And riches aren’t measured by what riches are,
A wonderful life can be simple and free,
The whole world gets smaller
When you’re here with me.
Final Chorus
I’d lasso the moon if you asked me to,
Pull down the stars and hand them to you,
But heaven knows what I’ve already found,
Everything I need is right here now.
Let the whole world turn,
Let the years roll through,
I’ll still be right here beside you.
And one thing I know will always be true,
It’s a wonderful life,
It’s a wonderful life,
It’s a wonderful life with you!
Remembering What We Forgot
Verse 1
We found an old picture in a kitchen drawer
You said, “Where in the world were we?”
I said, “I don’t know, but look at our hair
And look at you looking at me”
We laughed about something we couldn’t recall
Then somehow remembered the spot
Strange how something can come back brand-new
Remembering what we forgot
Chorus
We’re remembering what we forgot
Finding the things that we lost
A song comes on and decades
Come rolling right back across
We’re still making memories
Whether we remember or not
And every now and then we fall in love again
Remembering what we forgot
Verse 2
You’ll say, “Remember that little place?”
I’ll swear that we never went
Then halfway through telling me how it all happened
I know exactly what you meant
I’ll finish the story, you’ll finish my thought
You’ll tell me I’m mixing the plot
But getting it wrong is half of the fun
Remembering what we forgot
Chorus
We’re remembering what we forgot
Finding the things that we lost
A song comes on and decades
Come rolling right back across
We’re still making memories
Whether we remember or not
And every now and then we fall in love again
Remembering what we forgot
Verse 3
Someday we’ll walk into some little room
And wonder what we came there for
Then you’ll look at me and I’ll look at you
And neither one needs to know anymore
’Cause I may lose names and you may lose dates
And we’ll argue over who forgot what
But I’ll never forget that I’d choose you again
Whatever else I forgot
Final Chorus
We’re remembering what we forgot
And forgetting a little more
But look at us still making memories
Like we haven’t made thousands before
If time wants to take a few details
It can take every one that it’s got
As long as I get to keep finding you
In everything that we forgot
Yeah, every now and then
I get to love you again
Remembering
Remembering
Remembering what we forgot
A Better Day With You
Verse 1
The sun came up and found its shine,
The sky turned blue right on time,
And the breeze came by to say hello,
And where it’s headed, I may just go.
The whole wide world looks good today,
As if the clouds just stepped away,
And everything I chance to see
Looks like it dressed itself for me.
Chorus
It’s a good day to be me,
It’s a good day to be you,
We’ve got the sun,
We’ve got the sky,
And both of us under the blue.
I’ve got a smile I didn’t earn,
I’ll give the credit where it’s due,
It’s a good day to be me,
And a better one with you.
Verse 2
The birds have found a song to sing,
The flowers joined in everything,
The clock can hurry on its way,
I’ve got no plans to chase the day.
There’s music floating through the air,
There’s something good most everywhere,
And if this day gets better yet,
You’ll be the reason, I would bet.
Chorus
It’s a good day to be me,
It’s a good day to be you,
We’ve got the sun,
We’ve got the sky,
And both of us under the blue.
I’ve got a smile I didn’t earn,
I’ll give the credit where it’s due,
It’s a good day to be me,
And a better one with you.
Final Chorus
It’s a good day to be me,
It’s a good day to be you,
We’ve got the sun,
We’ve got the sky,
And both of us under the blue.
Let tomorrow wait its turn,
We’ve got today to wander through,
It’s a good day to be me,
And a better one with you.
Grand Finale
Good day to be me,
Good day to be you,
Better when it’s two!
We’ve got the sun,
We’ve got the sky,
And both of us under the blue!
It’s a good day,
A grand day,
A couldn’t ask for more day,
It’s a good day to be me,
And a better one with you.
With you.
Modern Day Doris Day
Verse 1
She doesn’t enter with a show,
The room just seems to know,
The conversation comes alive
The minute she says hello.
No diamonds begging to be seen,
No grand display,
She wears a smile like other girls
Wear Cartier.
Chorus
She’s a modern day Doris Day,
Que sera sera, come what may,
A little sunshine, dressed in now,
A little grace that still knows how.
She makes the good boys misbehave,
And makes the bad boys want to change,
Old-fashioned charm in a brand-new way,
She’s a modern day Doris Day.
Verse 2
She never fishes for a word,
She lets it come to her,
The clever lines you practiced twice
Don’t sound so clever near her.
You planned on being charming,
Rehearsed it all the way,
She smiles and says a simple “Hello,”
There goes what you meant to say.
Chorus
She’s a modern day Doris Day,
Que sera sera, come what may,
A little sunshine, dressed in now,
A little grace that still knows how.
She makes the good boys misbehave,
And makes the bad boys want to change,
Old-fashioned charm in a brand-new way,
She’s a modern day Doris Day.
Verse 3
Some women leave you wondering
Exactly where you stand,
She leaves you wondering when you put
Your heart into her hand.
And when your friends all ask you
How it ever got this way,
You’ll shrug and say, “I had a plan,
She had a better way.”
Final Chorus
She’s a modern day Doris Day,
Que sera sera, come what may,
Some things never fade away,
Some kinds of class are here to stay.
A little sunshine, dressed in now,
A little grace that still knows how,
Yesterday in a brand-new way,
She’s a modern day Doris Day.
Outro
Que sera sera, come what may,
She’s a modern day Doris Day.
That Moment in Time
Verse 1
There was only a breath between us,
Only air between your hand and mine,
Near enough to know what I was missing,
Far enough to leave it undefined.
What a curious thing is distance,
It can measure an inch like a mile,
I had all of forever before me,
And forever was one little while.
Chorus
Then came that moment in time,
When almost became evermore,
When your hand found mine
And the distance resigned,
All that I’d waited my whole life to find
Was there in that moment in time.
Verse 2
I’d been looking so long for an answer,
Never knowing how close it could be,
There are things you can search the world over
That are waiting for you to receive.
I had looked through the glass at a promise,
I had stood with my face to the light,
Then you crossed that impossible distance
And the darkness surrendered its right.
Chorus
Then came that moment in time,
When almost became evermore,
When your hand found mine
And the distance resigned,
All that I’d waited my whole life to find
Was there in that moment in time.
Bridge
Heaven isn’t so distant,
Forever is closer than we know,
A hand reaches through the distance,
And suddenly there’s nowhere left to go.
Final Chorus
Then came that moment in time,
When almost became evermore,
When your hand found mine
And the distance resigned,
All that I’d waited my whole life to find
Was there in that moment in time.
Outro
When your hand
Touched mine
In that moment
In time.
An Attitude of Gratitude
Verse 1
I used to count what I didn’t have,
The roads I missed, the good gone bad,
I kept a little ledger of what life put me through,
Then I learned to count my blessings,
And I started with you.
I don’t need fortune, I don’t need fame,
I don’t need everybody knowing my name,
Give me a little less wanting, a little more truth,
And an attitude of gratitude
For everything I do.
Chorus
I’ve got an attitude of gratitude,
A better way of looking at the view,
For every morning, every moon,
Every old familiar tune,
I’ve got an attitude of gratitude for you.
Let the whole world chase what it wants to pursue,
I’ve got everything I need when I’ve got you,
Life looks mighty good from this point of view,
I’ve got an attitude,
An attitude of gratitude
For you.
Verse 2
I’ve seen doors close, I’ve seen plans fall through,
I’ve blamed a cloudy sky or two,
Then watched those clouds go rolling by
And leave a brighter blue.
Funny how wanting can spoil the view,
You miss what you’ve got chasing something new,
So whatever tomorrow decides to put me through,
I’ll meet it with an attitude
Of gratitude for you.
Chorus
I’ve got an attitude of gratitude,
A better way of looking at the view,
For every morning, every moon,
Every old familiar tune,
I’ve got an attitude of gratitude for you.
Let the whole world chase what it wants to pursue,
I’ve got everything I need when I’ve got you,
Life looks mighty good from this point of view,
I’ve got an attitude,
An attitude of gratitude
For you.
Final Chorus
I’ve got an attitude of gratitude,
And darling, it looks pretty good on me too,
For every morning, every moon,
Every old familiar tune,
I’ve got an attitude of gratitude for you.
Let the whole world chase what it wants to pursue,
I’ve got everything I need when I’ve got you,
Life looks mighty good from this point of view,
I’ve got an attitude,
An attitude of gratitude,
For you.
When the Trumpet Calls
Verse 1
I’ve seen the curtain falling,
I’ve heard the last goodnight,
I’ve watched a room go quiet
And wondered where went the light.
But somewhere past the silence,
Past the last thing that we know,
There’s always one more measure
And another note to go.
Chorus
So when the trumpet calls,
I’ll straighten up my tie,
Put one more shine upon my shoes
And give that tune a try.
Let the old clock keep on ticking,
Let the final curtain fall,
I’ve got a feeling that’s not the ending
When the trumpet calls.
Verse 2
So spend the good you’re given,
And give a little more,
Leave something worth remembering
When you walk out through the door.
In just a blink, they tell me,
This whole thing changes key,
So I won’t bet against the tune
That’s waiting there for me.
Final Chorus
So when the trumpet calls,
I’ll straighten up my tie,
Put one more shine upon my shoes
And give that tune a try.
Let the old clock keep on ticking,
Let the final curtain fall,
I’ve got a feeling that’s not the ending
When the trumpet calls.
Final Chorus
Let the old clock keep on ticking,
Let the final curtain fall,
I’ve got a feeling that’s not the ending
When the trumpet calls.
Oh, when the trumpet calls.
When the trumpet calls.
