1. tim mcgraw:
âhe said the way my blue eyes shined, put those Georgia stars to shame that night i said, thatâs a lieâ

i hope you think my favorite song, the one we danced to all night long, the moon like a spotlight on the lakeâ

2. picture to burn:
âso watch me strike a match on all my wasted time, as far as I'm concerned, you're just another picture to burnâ
âi realize you love yourself more than you could ever love meâ
âand if you're missing me, you'd better keep it to yourselfâ

3. teardrops on my guitar:

4. a place in this world:
âi don't know what i want, so don't ask me cause I'm still trying to figure it outâ
âdon't know what's down this road, i'm just walking trying to see through the rain coming downâ
âmaybe i'm just a girl on a mission but i'm ready to flyâ

5. cold as you:
ânow that i'm sitting here thinking it through i've never been anywhere cold as youâ
âyou put up walls and paint them all a shade of grayâ
âevery smile you fake is so condescending counting all the scars you madeâ

6. the outside:
âi didn't know what i would find
when I went looking for a reasonâ
âso how can I ever try to be better? nobody ever lets me inâ
âbut no one notices until it's too
late to do anythingâ

7. tied together with a smile:
âseems the only one who doesn't see your beauty is the face in the mirror looking back at youâ
âthe water's high you're jumping into it and letting go and no one knows that you cry but you don't tell anyoneâ

8. stay beautiful:
âand when you find everything you looked for i hope your life will lead you back to my door, oh, but if it don't stay beautifulâ
âif what you are is a daydream i'll never get to hold at least you'll knowâ

9. shouldnât said no:
âit's strange to think the songs we used to sing, the smiles, the flowers, everything is goneâ
âyou should've known that word, 'bout what you did with herâd get back to meâ
âyou should've said no, baby, and you might still have meâ

10. maryâs song:
âi looked at you like the stars that shined in the skyâ

11. our song:
âi say, "Nothing, I was just thinking how we don't have a song"
âi've heard every album, listened to the radio waited for something to come along that was as good as our songâ
âi grabbed a pen and an old napkin and i wrote down our songâ

13. invisible:
âyou can't see me wanting you the way you want herâ

14. a perfectly good heart:
âmaybe i should've seen the signs, should've read the writing on the wall and realized by the distance in your eyes that i would be the one to fallâ
âit's not unbroken anymore
how do i get it back the way it was before?â
