I know
That's just it goes
And you ain't right
For sure
You turned your back on love
For the last time
It won't take much longer now
Time makes me stronger
Well, there's nothing more to say

One day in your life
Said love would remind you
How could you leave it all behind
One day in your live
It's gonna find you
With the tears you let me cry
And baby I'm stronger then before
You gotta lay it on the line
Maybe one day in your life

My love
Did you think I'd break down
And cry
This thing we had
It meant the world to me
Guess I was blind
It won't take much longer now
See time makes me stronger well
And I know you'll be comin' round some day

One day in your life
Said love would remind you
How could you leave it all behind
One day in your live
It's gonna find you
With the tears you let me cry
And baby I'm stronger then before
You gotta lay it on the line
Maybe one day in your life

You called me in the midnight hour
With your velvet lies
So many sleepless nights, I wonder
Is it time to say goodbye?
Oooh yeah

One day in your life
Said love would remind you
Baby
How could you leave it all behind
Could you leave it all behind
One day in your live
It's gonna find you
With the tears you let me cry
And baby I'm stronger then before
You gotta lay it on the line
Maybe one day in your life
One day

One day in your life
Said love would remind you
Yeah yeah yeah
How could you leave it all behind
One day in your live
Oh oh oh yeah
It's gonna find you
With the tears you let me cry
And baby I'm stronger then before
You gotta lay it on the line
Maybe one day in your life

[Spoken] 
You can say what you want about me 
Wanna do what you want to me 
But you can not stop me 

I've been knocked down 
It's a crazy town 
Even got a punch in the face in LA 
Ain't nothing in the world that you keep 
me from doing what I wanna do 
'Cause I'm too proud, I'm too strong 
Life by the code that you gotta move on 
Feel excited for yourself 
and got nobody no way 
so I... 
(Held my head high) 
Knew I (Knew I survive) 
Well I made it (I made it) 
I don't hate it (Don't hate it) 
That's just the way it goes 
Yeah 
I done made it through 
Stand on my own two 
I paid my dues, yeah 
Tried to hold me down 
You can't stop me now 
I paid my dues 

[Spoken]
So straight back on 
You cannot stop me 
I paid my dues 

Now I'm still trusted every day 
people try to mess with Anastacia 
gotta nothing in common 
cause I handle mine 
and I thought I better let you know 
I'm no punk I can't get down 
I don't give a damn about abuse around 
that was just fine 'til now 
So I... 
(Held my head high) 
Knew I (Knew I survive) 
Well I made it (I made it) 
Oahh (Don't hate it) 
That's just the way it goes 
Yeah 
I done made it through 
Stand on my own two 
I paid my dues 
Yeah yeah 
Tried to hold me down 
you can't stop me now 
I paid my dues, yeah 
yeah yeah yeah 
Took so long to get me here (here) 
But I won't live in fear (fear) 
You try to steal my shine (shine) 
But first they wanna build you up (up) 
Then they tear you down (down) 
It's a struggle, you try to bubble 
so I... 
(Held my head high) 
Knew I (Knew I survive) 
Oahh (I made it) 
(Don't hate it) 
Said that's - just - the - wayyyyy 

(I done made it through) 
(Stand on my own two) 
I said I paid my, I paid my dues 
Yeahhhhh 
(Tried to hold me down) 
But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now)

(I done made it through) oahhh 
(Stand on my own two) oh 
(I paid my dues) I paid my, I paid my dues 
yeahh (Tried to hold me down) 
But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now) 
(I paid my dues) I paid my dues

Verse 1:
Baby I been waitin' for some time
To find a way to free your mind yeah
It's the simple things you do to me
That makes my heart forget to beat, yeah yeah
But I ain't here to try to play your fool no no
And I won't never beg for you
But heaven bless the day you find
What you been lookin for
Well my baby you better know

Chorus:
And now I wanna take you higher
Don't keep me waitin' on the outside of love
Can't stop it if you wanted to
Cuz I was made for lovin' you yeah yeah

Verse 2:
I guess I thought it was a dream
Locked up in a mystery yeah
Can't guess on what was meant to be
My soul just keeps on tellin' me yeah yeah
Cuz I can't take this for another day
I thought of us a hundred different ways
And I'd give anything for you
Cuz you were made for lovin' me
And me for lovin' you

Chorus

Bridge:
Its time that you let me know baby
I ain't gonna wait, I ain't gonna play your game
I can't face another day
There's nothin' left for me to say

Chorus

Cowboys and kisses
Cowboys and kisses
Gotta find myself everytime you go away

Baggy blue jeans and a box of magazines
Is all I have of you
Waitin' on the day you walk back in my life
Like a newborn child, you made me smile,
Then stole my heart away
We may be outta touch, but never out of time
(Come back to me boy)
Come back to me boy

(Cowboys and kisses)
Always seem to bring me down
You're like a weight in my pocket
Everytime you come around
Damn those cowboys and kisses
Gotta find myself everytime you go away

Holdin on to you like a pair of old shoes
That you never throw away
Every road still leads me back to you, yeah
Your little white lies and butterflies made me shed a tear
Still I'm prayin on the day that you'll be mine (mine)
Why do all these

(Cowboys and kisses)
Always seem to bring me down (down)
You're like a weight in my pocket
Everytime you come around
(Damn those) Cowboys and kisses
Gotta find myself everytime you go away
Everytime, everytime baby

(Cowboys and kisses)
(Always seem to bring me down)
You're like a weight in my pocket
Everytime you come around
Damn those cowboys and kisses
Gotta find myself everytime you go away
Yeah

Why do I keep on holding you
When all you do is hurt me?
All my friends say I should let you go
So afraid that I might see
I can't keep on living life like this
Up and down in and out
I wonder, is this world just a cowboy and a kiss?
Or should I choose another?

(Cowboys and kisses)
Always seem to bring me down
You're like a weight in my pocket
Everytime you come around
Damn those cowboys and kisses
I said I gotta find myself everytime you go away
Everytime
Everytime you go away

(Cowboys and kisses)
Always seem to bring me down
You're like a weight in my pocket
Everytime you come around
Damn those cowboys and kisses
Gotta find myself everytime you go away
I said I said I said I said
Gotta find myself everytime you go away
Gotta find myself everytime you go away
Yeah
(Cowboys and kisses)
Yeah yeah yeah

There is no rose without a thorn,
no rain without the storm (oh, oh, oh).
There is no laughter without tears,
no wisdom without years (oh, oh, oh).
In a world gone crazy,
torn between the roads that we must choose.
Win or lose.
If every soul should lose it `s way,
if every face should lose it īs name
tell me who's gonna stop the rain?

Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh...

Each day another boy and girl
sets foot into this world (oh, oh, oh).
One reaches out to touch the sky,
one never learns to fly (oh, oh, oh).
Where is it written in the stone
that any child should walk alone,
out on their own?
If no one tries to end this game,
or find a way to ease the pain.
Tell me who's gonna stop the rain?

Oh, oh, oh.
Who's gonna stop the rain?
I said who's gonna stop the rain?
Oh, oh, oh....

How many rivers must we cross before we learn
that the flood is rising high,
and the bridges all have burned.
Each time another dream is washed into the sea,
it's another piece of you,
it's another piece of me (oh, oh, oh).

Sure as the blood runs through your veins,
sure as the falling rain (oh, oh, oh).
We'll taste the tears of each defeat,
the bitter and the sweet, yeah (oh, oh, oh).
As the days grow colder,
wonder if we'll ever see the sun
when winter comes.
If no one stands to take the weight,
if no one answers to the blame
tell me who's gonna stop the rain?
(oh, oh, oh. oh, oh, oh. oh, oh, oh).
Who's gonna stop the rain?

If every soul should lose its way,
if every face should lose its name.
If no one tries to end this game,
or find a way to ease the pain,
tell me who's gonna stop the rain?
(Oh, oh, oh)

Who's gonna stop the rain?

If no one stands to take the weight,
if no one answers to the blame,
tell me who's gonna stop?
Who's gonna stop, the rain? (Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh).

Who's gonna stop the rain?
Who's gonna stop the rain?

Now baby come on
Don't claim that love you never let me feel
I should've known
'Cause you've brought nothing real
Come on be a man about it
You won't die
I ain't got no more tears to cry
And I can't take this no more
You know I gotta let it go
And you know

Chorus
I'm outta love
Set me free
And let me out this misery
Just show me the way
To get my life again
'Cause you can't handle me
I'm outta love
Can't you see
Baby that you've gotta set me free
I'm outta love

Said how many times
Have I tried to turn this love around?
But every time you just let me down
Come on be a man about it
You'll survive
True that you can work it out all right
Tell me
Yesterday did you know
I'd be the one to let you go?
And you know

Chorus

Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me too, yeah
Seems like my time has come
And now I'm moving on
I'll be strong yeah

Chorus

I ask of you, would you love me, if nothing else went right?
And I ask of you, would you hold me, forever in your life?
And don't let me fall, 'cause I can only give my all
Here I am
I ask of you

I found the place where I belong, it's right here next to you
And nothing else matters now, with all we've been through
I can't go on, tryin' to deny just what I feel inside
But now before I let go, you gotta let me know

I ask of you, would you love me, if nothing else went right?
I ask of you, would you hold me, forever in your life?
Don't let me fall, 'cause I can only give my all
Here I am
I ask of you
Yes I do
I ask of you
Whoa

I never really thought
(I never really thought)
That you'd be all to me
(That you'd be all that really matters to me)
I'd give everything and all I am to you
Oh baby, baby, I know you feel this way too

I ask of you, would you love me, if nothing else went right?
And I ask of you, would you hold me, forever in your life?
And don't let me fall, 'cause I can only give my all
Here I am
I ask of you
