Carolina Home By Mark Mills 1997 c


Carolina Home
Its where I want to be
No matter where I go
It keeps callling me
From the night life in Memphis
From sea to shing sea
No matter where I lay my head
Its where I want to be

Chorus:
Going home to Carolina
Blue skies are calling me
Yes my homes in Carolina
Take me home and set me free

Some people think I'm crazy
Because I dont ask for much
Sitting on the front porch
Spending time with those I love
Smelling the pine trees
Catching an evening breeze
A view of the mountains
Is all I'll ever need.

Chorus:
Going home to Carolina
Blue skies are calling me
Yes my homes in Carolina
Take me home and set me free

So daddy's tell your children
When they go out on their own
Nothing will satisfy them
Like the simple things at home
You will be so lonely when they go away
But when they see the world
I know you will hear them say

Chorus:
Going home to Carolina
Blue skies are calling me
Yes my homes in Carolina
Take me home and set me free

Tag:
Yes my homes in Carolina
Take me home and set me free

A Cowboys Life by Mark Mills 2009 c


It’s a good hard life, A cowboys dreams
It’s a harder life, than most people believe
Riding the range from dusk till dawn
working for wages and a cowboys song.

A young strapping buck in the spring of his life
Roping and riding, his reins held tight
Chasing the freedom of living on the range
Most people will tell you he will never change

Summer is here now the prime of his life
Living with no fear of what’s on the other side
Reflecting on courage its held deep within
Bestowed from his father and cowboy skin

It’s a good hard life, A cowboys dreams
It’s a harder life, than most people believe
Riding the range from dusk till dawn
working for wages and a cowboys song.

He is weathered and worn as fall rushes in
The crisp cool morning before winter begins
But another life he would not lead
It’s a life of a cowboy that meets his needs

Winters are harsh on the range it appears
watching the sun set as the end draws near
Never regretting the brands which he rode
A cowboys strength is the cowboy code

It’s a good hard life, A cowboys dreams
It’s a harder life, than most people believe
Riding the range from dusk till dawn
working for wages and a cowboys song.

Momma Momma By Mark Mills 1998 c


Momma Momma
I'm so alone
I miss you so much since you have been gone.
The phone rings again precisely at ten
My hearts breaking wrong number again.
Momma Momma
 I have so much to say
 I never told you before you went away
 I miss your touch, your guiding hand
If we could only talk once again
The kids are fine, doing well in school
We found a new house, one with a pool
Yes I know what you would say
And we will be careful in every way
Momma Momma
I hear you in a song
I still think of you when I hear the phone.
 I see the empty chair when I drive by
 Hoping to see you just one more time.
I have so much to tell you about everything
I want to tell you how I have been
 I want to hear the things I never heard
I want to say in so many words
Momma Momma I'm so alone
I miss you so much since you have been gone


The phone rings again precisely at ten
My hearts breaking wrong number again.

Loving You Can Be So Cruel. By Mark Mills 2009



Loving you can be so cruel
throwing out the golden rule
Because Loving someone does not make them love you.
I gave my heart , you crushed my soul
It crushed my dreams, you’re so bold
No one else could love you, but this you failed to see.
You put up a fight, a cold façade
You searched inside to find the one
That that never really met your needs
I was there when you walked by
I was willing, you made me cry
Broken hearts only heal once they are set free.
So life goes on and on, in this song
Nothing really is ever wrong
In your eyes it’s what you want it to be.
Blessings come as dreams go bye
Destiny prevails, hearts cant hide.
We treasure the precious things that have come to be.
Looking forward with no regrets
Wondering what to expect.
Many changes never to be seen.
So life goes on and on, in this song
Nothing really is ever wrong
In your eyes it’s what you want it to be
Love grows cold over time
Even hearts such as mine
So everything is as it should be.
So life goes on and on, in this song
Nothing really is ever wrong
In your eyes it’s what you want it to Be





Walking In The Rain By Mark Mills 1988 c


Walking in the rain
under cloudy skies
I can feel the pain
I've held it deep inside.
I ain't looking for no money
I ain't looking for no ride
I just want you honey, to be at my side.
I wore many shoes in this life of mine.
I paid all my dues
I paid them all on time.
But life's not worth living 
If I'll be denied
I don't want to live it with out you at my side.
Walking in the rain
Walking hand in hand
 I'm so happy you let me be your man
 I now can see a  rainbow.
Colors changing hues
I'm where I want to be.
 I'm right here with you.
I'm walking in the rain
bright sun shining in the sky.
I feel no more pain with you at my side.
 Walking in the rain
Its where I want to be
Walking hand in hand
your always with me.

If You Need A Friend by Mark Mills 1997 c


In times of trouble

It seems that life has passed you by

You feel so hopeless

You wonder why you even try

Just remember

There's a greater power than you and I

His name is Jesus

He can make your burdens light



Chorus:

If you need a friend

Just call his name

If you need someone

To get you through the day

If you need a friend

Just call his name

If you ever need a friend



In times of trouble

It seems that friends just can't be found

Time is wasting

You find there is no way out

Just remember

There's a greater one than you and me

His name is Jesus.

He's all the friend you'll ever need



Chorus: (repeat chorus)

If you need a friend

Just call his name

If you need someone

To get you through the day

If you need a friend

Just call his name

If you ever need a friend



Bridge:

Raise your hands to Jesus

He will lift you from the ground

Give your heart to Jesus

He'll never let you down.

He will never let you down



Chorus: (repeat chorus)

Tag: Call his name (Jesus)

Call his name (Jesus)

If you need a friend

Just call his name

If you ever need a friend

Kiss My Lips By Mark Mills 1997 c


Chorus:

Kiss my lips

Hold me tight

Say the words I want to hear tonight

Hold me close

Never let go

Say to me the words I know



We were walking on a sandy beach

The stars the moon hanging over me

When its magic you know its right

Walking under the bright moon light



Chorus:

Kiss My Lips

Hold me tight

Say the words I want to here tonight

Hold me close

Never let go

Say to me the words I know



Tears dry up for lonely hearts

Love grows strong when we're apart

Leaving footprints in the sand

Remember walking hand in hand



Chorus:

Kiss my lips

Hold me tight

Say the words I want to hear tonight

Hold me close

never let go

Say to me the words I know



Its times like this, when we're alone

Close the door unplug the phone

come to me be my wife

Remember we pledged our love for life
