Years - Beth Nielsen Chapman
I went home for christmas To the house that i grew up in Going back was something after all these years I drove down monterey street And i felt a little sadness When i turned left laurel and the house appeared And i snuck up to that rocking chair Where the winter sunlight slanted on […]
Walk My Way - Beth Nielsen Chapman
What a fool Thought i’d wrapped up the case I went and promised my heart But you just laughed in my face What a fall Never thought i’d forget you I gave it all But i’ve got no regret I loved you I cared Chorus: So if by chance you walk my way And feel […]
Nights alone Silent telephone The curtains on my window dark and drawn Sleepless dream It would almost seem The nights would drive me crazy now you’re gone, but Chorus: That’s the easy part When i’m alone, and i can cry That’s the easy part Don’t have to smile, don’t have to try To hide my […]
Rita’s out on the street tonight Driving through the rain She’s got lots of new reasons not to trust any man again And even though she’ll be alright She’ll never be the same again She’ll move closer to her mama, let her daughter keep her daddy’s name Sometimes you’ve only got one road and it’s […]

My oh my, time sure flies I like what you’ve done to your hair I’ve been fine, yeah, these boys are mine That must be your little girl there Some friendships grow distant with time And it’s no wonder, emily, so much can change We’re too far to visit, too busy to write But a […]
Sometimes you wonder how much i care I get so distracted running nowhere And i take for granted our love is secure But if i started losing you, one thing is sure I’d be down on my knees Ready to pray, darlin’ Down on my knees Making you stay I’d be begging you please Don’t […]
Child Again - Beth Nielsen Chapman
