Notes:
Okay, I've heard the album version and it seems to differ a
little from this one, but this version from the single release was the
only version avaliable to me! I assume the Autumn Breeze Mix is in the
same key as that on the album and also fea tures the same lyrics, but when
I find out for sure, I'll get back to you!

| This is one of the few Texas songs that I like, but I absolutely love it. I heard it recently for the first time in a long while, and properly listened to the lyrics. It spoke to me because if I could write down a certain situation I am in, this is what it would read like. I have an ex who has a few commitment and relationship issues. I know as well as he does that we are both in love, but he can't handle it. I want to help him handle it. At the moment he is scared and panics as soon as he feels anything remotely like an emotion, (not his fault) so if I could sing this to him I would. | |

| Make me believe you're someone else, make me believe you love me. Make me believe that you're worth the hassle. Time will tell. | |
