Six o’ clock in the morning, airport’s jammed up tight
Pushin’ my way through
Never thought about it quite like this but the truth is:
I’m flying away from you
And this time I’ m strapped in tight
I’ll figure it out if it takes the whole flight
Hey! True love’s stronger than both of us
And it might even work this time
We’ve been staring it down but it just won’t die
Whoa, Whoa
We’re free falling without a net
Walking the line with no regret
Changing the way I look at this crazy world
Baby you make me a better girl
After everything my poor heart’s been through
Who would’ve believed
That a good old boy from Dallas would fall
For a complicated girl like me
I was crying all over my dress
You looked pretty tough but you were a mess
Hey! True love’s stronger than both of us
And it might even work this time
We’ve been staring it down but it just won’t die
Whoa, Whoa
We’re free falling without a net
Walking the line with no regret
Changing the way I look at this crazy world
Baby you make me a better girl
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Hey! True love’s stronger than both of us
And it might even work this time
We’ve been staring it down but it just won’t die
Whoa, Whoa
We’re free falling without a net
Walking the line with no regret
Changing the way I look at this crazy world
Baby you make me a better girl
Yeah baby you make me a better girl

Indian summer, Abilene
You were new in town, I was nineteen
And the sparks flew
They called us crazy behind our backs
Romantic fools, we just let them laugh
Because we knew
May be a long shot: it may get lonely down the line
Love knows no reason
And I won’t let ‘em make up my mind
My money’s riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is saying it’s the lucky one
And its true color’s gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run
Stars are brighter in the desert sky
No need to wonder or justify
Where this could lead
I wear a locket, your picture’s inside
Inscription says “the joy’s in the ride”
And I believe
Something so sacred is something worth this kind of fight
Love knows no patience
You can’t please everyone all the time
My money’s riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is saying it’s the lucky one
And its true color’s gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run
So rare – so sweet
Hey, yeah, yeah
My money’s riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is saying it’s the lucky one
And its true color’s gonna shine through someday
If we let this - let it run
My money’s riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is saying it’s the lucky one
And its true color’s gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run
Indian summer, Abilene
You were new in town, I was nineteen
And the sparks flew
They still do.

Ann Claire - Lucky Me

Ain’t life funny?
One day you’re lonely
Next thing you know you’ve found your one and only
In a moment it all changes
It’s just like being on a non-stop roll in Vegas
Ain’t I lucky!
Lucky like a four leaf clover, hidden in the backyard
Lucky like a winning lottery ticket
Lucky like a falling star
Lucky like a twenty-dollar bill that you find
In the pocket of your winter coat
Unexpectedly: the way you found me
Ain’t I lucky!
Now I throw salt over my shoulder
Just hold that fuzzy rabbit’s foot a little closer
I’m steppin’ over cracks in the sidewalk
You won’t find a wishing well without a penny I tossed
Ain’t I lucky!
Lucky like a four leaf clover, hidden in the backyard
Lucky like a winning lottery ticket
Lucky like a falling star
Lucky like a twenty-dollar bill that you find
In the pocket of your winter coat
Unexpectedly: the way you found me
Ain’t I lucky!
Out of all the girls in this big world
You look at me like I’m the only one you’ll ever see
The only one you’ll ever need.
Lucky, lucky me!
Lucky like a four leaf clover, hidden in the backyard
Lucky like a winning lottery ticket
Lucky like a falling star
Lucky like a twenty-dollar bill that you find
In the pocket of your winter coat
Unexpectedly: the way you found me
Ain’t I lucky!
Lucky like a spin on the wheel of fortune
Lucky like a beauty queen
Lucky like winning seven Grammy’s when you can’t even sing
Lucky like winning Daytona
Lucky like a debutante
Lucky me!

Ann Claire - Good Enough
03:45

He’d do anything not to be so mad
As he tried to say his goodbyes to his Dad
They’d never cried, he’d be damned if he would today
So much pride and anger held them like a chain
Then the old man took his last shot
And he took it all away:
You need to know I love you
I never really said that I do
But every time you’d win at all, and every time you’d take a fall
Don’t think that I didn’t see
I was proud of you as I could be
Just wish I could have told you all along
It’s taken my whole life to say this much
You were always good enough
So he walked back in the house where he grew up
Saw the toys passed on to his little boy, a red fire truck
He’d said “win, come first, don’t make me ashamed
If you lose, don’t let them see your pain
And then he looked into his son’s eyes
He said it’s time for me to change
You need to know I love you
I never really said that I do
But every time you’d win at all and every time you’d take a fall
Don’t think that I didn’t see
I was proud of you as I could be
Just wish I could have told you all along
It’s taken my whole life to say this much
You were always good enough
It takes faith and forgiveness; we’ve all got wings
It takes grace, nothing less than a miracle
To let light in
You need to know I love you
I never really said that I do
But every time you’d take a fall and every time you’d win at all
Don’t think that I didn’t see
I was proud of you as I could be
Just wish I could have told you all along
It’s taken my whole life to say this much
It’s taken my whole life to say this much
You were always good enough
You were more than good enough

I got a rhinestone bikini but I’d rather be skinny-dipping
You think you got me figured out
But there’s a thing or two you might be missing
Cause while we’re wasting all this time talking
We could be kissing
But I’ll go where I’ll go cause I know that it takes what it takes
Pull out all the stops, lay it down on the line
Start doin’ it my way
London to Dallas: from a trailer park to a palace
You gotta know who you are, what you’re worth
And don’t you take a cent less
Cause you’re a Honkytonk Princess
If it’s a trailer it better be a by-God double-wide
And you should take off those muddy hunting boots
Before you step inside
Hey maybe later you’ll take me on a chauffeured pony ride
Cause there’s places I’m dreaming about
And I’m gonna see ‘em
Gonna burn down the house
Gonna raise up the roof
That’s right: this time I mean it.
London to Dallas: from a trailer park to a palace
You gotta know who you are, what you’re worth
And don’t you take a cent less
Cause you’re a Honkytonk Princess
All you fellas listen to me if you’re tired of dancing with the wall
She don’t need a glass slipper
She just needs for you to call
And maybe talk to her – and not about football.
You better put up, shut up or nothin’s gonna work at all!
London to Dallas: from a trailer park to a palace
You gotta know who you are, what you’re worth
And don’t you take a cent less
Cause you’re a Honkytonk Princess
So don’t you take a cent less
Cause you’re a Honkytonk Princess
