The Time Has Come - Martina McBride

(lonnie wilson/susan longacre) The time has come to let you go My tears will run and they’ll keep me afloat I set you adrift like a burning boat The time has come to let you go The time has come to turn you loose It took my heart this long to face the truth If […]

That’s Me - Martina McBride

(tony haselden/bob alan) There’s a photo in an album he don’t notice anymore That’s me, that’s me There’s a stack of cards and letters buried deep inside a drawer That’s me, that’s me And the shirt that i once slept in hanging loose behind the door Tossed aside so carelessly That’s me, oh that’s me […]
