Shoot them all down with the flash of your pearly smile
Honey, but you met your match tonight; oh, that’s right
You think you’ll knock me off my feet, ‘Til I’m flat on the floor
‘Til my heart is crying’ Indian, and I begin’ for more
So come on baby, Come on, baby
Come on, and baby, show me what that loaded gun is for

I followed her to some darkened room, and she took my money; she said, “I’ll be with you soon.”
The dark lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music ’til her brew was done
The dark lady played black magic ’til the clock struck on the 12
She told me more about myself than I knew myself

Seasons came and changed the time, And I grew up, I called him mine

Every memory repeats, Every step I take retreats
Every journey always brings me back to you; after all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who’ve been rescued from the fall, After all that we’ve been through
It all comes down to me and you; I guess it’s meant to be, forever you and me, after all.

If I could turn back time, If I could find a way.
I’d take back those words that have hurt you, And you’d stay
I don’t know why I did the things I did
I don’t know why I said the things I said
Pride’s like a knife, and it can cut deep inside
Words are like weapons, and they wound sometimes
I didn’t mean to hurt you, and I didn’t want to see you go
I know I made you cry, but baby, If I could turn back time
If I could find a way, I’d take back those words that have hurt you
And you’d stay, If I could reach the stars
I’d give them all to you, and then you’d love me, love me
Like you used to do, (If I could turn back time)

I guess that’s so, we don’t have a pot, but at least I’m sure of all the things we got, babe
I got you, babe, I got you, babe
I got flowers in the spring. I got you to wear my ring
And when I’m sad, you’re a clown, and if I get scared, you’re always around
So let them say your hair’s too long because I don’t care; with you, I can’t go wrong
then put your little hand in mine. There isn’t any hill or mountain we can’t climb.

I’ve been broken down, Left with a broken heart
But I’m stronger, Strong enough to rise above
This is a woman’s world, and This is a woman’s world
Tell the truth, and This is a woman’s world

Said I’m stronger, Strong enough to rise above
This is a woman’s world, and This is a woman’s world.

But you walked away when I needed you most
Now maybe, baby, baby, I found someone
To take away the heartache, to take away the loneliness
I’ve been feeling’ since you’ve been gone since you’ve been gone
Dry your eyes. I never could bear to see you cry
Someday your love will shine through
And show you the feelings you never really knew
But, baby, don’t you lose that thunder, talkin’ about the fire in your eyes.
You’re lookin’ at me, but you still don’t believe.

I was born in the wagon of a traveling show
My mama used to dance for the money they’d throw
Papa would do whatever he could, Preach a little gospel
Sell a couple of bottles of Doctor Good
Gypsies, tramps, and thieves
We’d hear it from the people of the town
They’d call us gypsies, tramps, and thieves
But every night, all the men would come around
And lay their money down, Picked up a boy just south of Mobile
Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal
I was 16, and he was 21, Rode with us to Memphis
And papa would have shot him if he knew what he’d done.

Where did you sleep last night? And was she worth it
Was she worth it? Because I’m strong enough, To live without you, Strong enough
And I quit crying, Long enough, Now I’m strong enough, To know
You have to go, and There’s no more to say, So save your breath and, Walk away
No matter what I hear you say, I’m strong enough, To know, You have to go

Don’t count me out just yet, and I’ve been brought down to my knees
And I’ve been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it, and I’ll be back
Back on my feet, This is far from over
You haven’t seen the last of me, and You haven’t seen the last of me
They can say that I won’t stay around
But I’m going to stand my ground, and You’re not going to stop me.

When you’re standing on the edge of nowhere
There’s only one way up, So your heart has to go there
Through the darkest nights, See the lights shine bright
When heroes fall in love or war, They live forever
This is a song for the lonely. Can you hear me tonight?
For the brokenhearted, battle-scarred
I’ll be by your side, And this is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won’t come true, Can you hear this prayer
Cause someone’s there for you, Well love don’t need a reason
She can pick you up or leave you bleeding; I’ve seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why; we all forgive
We all forget And just keep believing
