At Least (Little Things)
Oh, hmm oh yeah, hmm, hmm, hmm
I'm on way back to Atlanta
About to start a new life
Cause I can't take it here
It seems the more we fight
The more the pressure
I'm in this lonely house
Sitting high up on a hill
Pressin' the buttons on the control
Flipping through channels on TV
Wondering when you're coming home
And take care of family
At least you can call and say I'm busy
At least you can say I'm running late
At least you can give some kind of notice
Let somebody know that you're okay
At least you can take some time to phone
At least you can just one day stay home
At least you can take me out to eat
If you love me, you would've done those things
You won't miss me till I'm gone
Impossible to drink from a well that's gone dry, yeah
And every night you come in singing the same old song
How could you do me wrong?
When you know it ain't right
Pressin' the buttons on the control
Flipping through channels on TV
Wondering when you're coming home
And take care of family
At least you can call and say I'm busy
At least you can say I'm running late
At least you can give some kind of notice
Let somebody know that you're okay
At least you can take some time to phone
At least you can just one day stay home
At least you can take me out to eat
If you love me, you would've done those things
Take in a movie show, a carnival
A place to go, we can be alone
But instead I'm staring at these matching walls
The weekends spent, a compliment
Flowers sent would've kept me at home
But now instead I'm packing my bags and I'm gone
At least you can call and say I'm busy
At least you can say I'm running late
At least you can give some kind of notice
Let somebody know that you're okay
At least you can take some time to phone
At least you can just one day stay home
At least you can take me out to eat
If you love me, you would've done those things
At least you can call and say I'm busy
At least you can say I'm running late
At least you can give some kind of notice
Let somebody know that you're okay
At least you can take some time to phone
At least you can just one day stay home
At least you can take me out to eat
If you love me, you would've done those things
All I wanted was a smile
For you to stay a little while
It's too late for it
Cause you forgot the little things, whoa, oh
At least you can call and say I'm busy
At least you can say I'm running late
At least you can give some kind of notice
Let somebody know that you're okay
At least you can take some time to phone
At least you can just one day stay home
At least you can take me out to eat
If you love me, you would've done those things
Mirror, Mirror
Been looking for love
I never could find it
While I'm standing here
And he is so blinded by her silly ways
He just can't imagine
She's playing a game
A game that he played for so long, oh
I want him to know
Just how much I love him
I wanted to show
But he just believes
I'm a friend he can trust
But I wanna touch him
I love him enough
To heal all the hurt in his heart
Oh yes I do but how do I start
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Can you tell me who to call?
When the one I love
Is loving someone who can't see
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Tell me if he'll ever fall so in love with me
Or could it be it's just make believe
Boy I had a dream
Or maybe a vision
That I was your queen
Cause I fit the slipper
You took me away
To happily ever
We laughed and we made
Sweet love till the sun came again
Oh yeah we did, hmm
But that was the end, oh
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Can you tell me who to call?
When the one I love
Is loving someone who can't see
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Tell me if he'll ever fall so in love with me
Or could it be it's just make believe
Oh, if you're looking for love
It's right in your face
I've been waiting for you
So don't run away
Fairy tales can come true
If you believe
(They can come true if you believe)
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Can you tell me who to call?
When the one I love
Is loving someone who can't see
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Tell me if he'll ever fall so in love with me
Or could it be it's just make believe
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
I wanna know, I wanna know
Is he gonna know?
That I'm loving him
And I'm needing him
Or will he love someone who can't see
Mirror, mirror
On the wall
Mirror, mirror

Hello
It's after nine o'clock you should be in bed already
I miss you
I love you baby
I hear you calling for me
Sometimes you cry in your sleep
Cause you don't understand why
I can't be with you tonight
But baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
You'll hold the pillow tonight
But soon I'll be by your side
I know you wonder if I
Know how you're feeling inside
So many things on your mind
Too much to think for a child
But baby close your eyes
(Close your eyes)
And try to sleep for awhile
(Oh)
I know you want me right now
But I'll be home tomorrow
[Jonia & Jeff Jr.]
I know you said not to worry
Cause you'll be home in a hurry
But I just wanted to tell you
How much I really do miss you
[Kelly]
Let me tell you, you're always
On my mind, on my mind
[Jonia & Jeff Jr.]
I hear you calling for me
[Kelly]
Sometimes I cry in my sleep
Although I understand why
I can't be with you tonight, oh
So I'll just close my eyes
I'll try to sleep for awhile, hmm
I hold my pillow real tight, baby, baby
Cause soon I'll be by your side

As We Lay
Whoa, it's morning
And we slept the night away
It happened
Now we can't turn back the hands of time, no, no
Yes we've stolen this moment
We forgot to face one simple fact
We both belong to someone else
As we slept the night away
It's morning
Sunlight shines across your sleeping face, oh
A new day
Brings reality and we both go our separate ways
What a lovely night we had yeah, yeah
As we shared each other's love
We forgot about all the pain we caused
As we slept the night away
As we lay
We forgot about tomorrow
As we lay
Ooh hey, hey
As we lay
Didn't think about
The price we'd have to pay
No, no, no
It's morning
And now it's time for us to say goodbye
Goodbye baby
You're leaving me
I know you've got to hurry home to face your wife, wife
I would never want to hurt her, no, no, no
She would never understand
You belong to me for just one night
As we slept the night away
Ooh oh, whoa
I would never, never want to hurt her, no, no, no
She would never understand
You belong to me for just one night
As we slept the night away
As we lay
We forgot about tomorrow
As we lay
Ooh hey, hey
As we lay
Didn't think about
The price we'd have to pay
No, no, no
We should have counted up the cost
But instead we got lost
In the second, in the minute
In the hour, hey, hey, hey
As we lay
We forgot about tomorrow
As we lay
Oh no, oh no, no
My love why can't you see
How loving you is killing me
I can't think of no one else
Baby, baby I can't take it no more
You see I can't be in your life
You gotta go home to you wife
Oh it's morning
I Know Who Holds Tomorrow - Bonus Track
Why don't we just do this?
Play that song that ma used to like
To hear me sing in church all the time
That's the one
[laughs]
I don't know
About tomorrow
I just live from day to day
And I don't borrow from its sunshine
For its skies may turn to gray
And I don't worry about my future
For I know what Jesus said
And today He walks beside me
For He knows what lies ahead
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to under-understand
But I, I know, I know, I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds, who holds my hand
Oh yeah, yeah, yes, hey, yes
Who holds my hand
