A Long And Happy Life lyrics - Delta Rae
I was born to a family of jokers
Gamblers and smokers living on the line
I was raised by strong-headed women
Men who tested limits and did a little time
And it ain't a mystery you fell for me
We're just two lost souls trying to find our peace
Love like ours ain't a masterpiece
It's a good day in the sun
I was born to love you
Out where the water is wide
Make me your country bride
You'll be my prince of tides
You were born to heal me
Under a velvet sky
Cattails dancing in the light
We were born to live a long and happy life
A happy life
Yeah, folks like us
We may lie down in darkness
But we don't lose our sparks; we bring back a good story to tell
Cause we grew up around beauty
Sunsets better than a movie
We knew it was our appointed duty to love like the world might end
And to toast to good nights with friends
I was born to love you
Out where the water is wide
Make me your country bride
You'll be my prince of tides
You were born to heal me
Under a velvet sky
Cattails dancing in the light
We were born to live a long and happy life
A happy life
Hey, a happy life
And it comes to me in waves
Like the shores of Palmetto Bay
Knowing I'm so lucky
Your broken heart could love me
I was born to love you
Out where the water is wide
Make me your country bride
You'll be my prince of tides
You were born to heal me
Under a velvet sky
Cattails dancing in the light
We were born to live a long and happy life
A happy life
Hey, a happy life
Happy life
I Moved South lyrics - Delta Rae
I lived in California; I was working in Manhattan
My life was very busy, yeah, but nothing ever happened
I wanted to make music and to show the world my soul
So I moved down south where they still play rock and roll
I always wanted summer; I was tired of the snow
I wanna find a lover where the sweet magnolias grow
Yeah, there's something in the water, on the shores of Muscle Shoals
So I moved down south where they still play rock and roll
I moved south where the grass is green
I moved south where my friends take care of me
Yeah, there's beauty in the valley and good people in the city
But I moved down south where the music moves me
Yeah, I moved down south where the music moves me
I met up with my brothers and I made a couple more
Bought a van that smelled like Armor All and we took it out on tour
From Atlanta to Seattle, we sang gospel and soul
And we'll go to any city where they still play rock and roll
And we go back home where the sweet magnolias grow
I moved south where the grass is green
I moved south where my friends take care of me
Yeah, there's beauty in the valley and good people in the city
But I moved down south where the music moves me
I moved south where the grass is green
I moved south where my friends take care of me
Yeah, there's beauty in the valley and good people in the city
But I moved down south where the music moves me
Yeah, I moved down south where the music moves me
No Peace In Quiet lyrics - Delta Rae
My friends are always over so I'm not alone
And the TV's on the second that they leave
Ghosts don't stand a chance against the radio
That's why I turn the music up to sleep
Cause there's no peace in quiet
Just footsteps on the stairs
Whispers in the silence
Remind me you're not there
There's no peace in quiet
Tonight, I'll lay down knowing you're not coming home
Then I'll swear I hear your keys outside my door
And I'll hate myself for checking as if I don't know
That it's just the wind chimes on the neighbor's porch
Cause there's no peace in quiet
Just footsteps on the stairs
Whispers in the silence
Remind me you're not there
There's no peace in quiet
I hear you standing in the shower
Hear you breathing in my bed
But there's nothing I hear louder
Than the words I never said
Cause there's no peace in quiet
Just footsteps on the stairs
Whispers in the silence
Remind me you're not there
There's no peace in quiet
There's no peace
Ain't Love lyrics - Delta Rae
Clock buzzes, it's 6:00 AM
I know this morning is not my friend
You came home in a fix last night
I told you "baby, I don't wanna fight"
And I know it's easy
A broken heart looks good on me
And I know you mean it
But I won't believe you til you're almost screaming
Oh, baby, were we both born sick?
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Oh, baby, were we both born sick?
Cause it ain't love til it hurts like this
Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love
It ain't love til it hurts like this
We only share the happy pictures we take
We put a filter on our own heartache
The evening comes like an unpaid bill
Just say the words, darling, break this spell
And I know it's true
Ooh, a broken heart looks good on you
Yeah, I know that's enough
Hey, let's make it worth it, spend the whole night making love
Oh, baby, were we both born sick?
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Oh, baby, were we both born sick?
Cause it ain't love til it hurts like this, no
Oh, baby, were we both born sick?
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Oh, baby, were we both born sick?
Ain't love til it hurts like this
You, you make me feel
Like gold, white heat, black velvet
And you, you got the touch to heal me
But it ain't enough
Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love
Ain't love til it hurts like this
Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love
Ain't love til it hurts like this
