Reba Nell McEntire (born on March 28, 1955) is a Grammy Award-winning singer and one of the best-selling country music performers of all time, known for her pop-tinged ballads that include 22 #1 hits. She has issued 29 albums, with more than 45 million records sold as of 2006. With a contract to Mercury Records, McEntire began her professional career with a hard honky tonk sound, which didn't go over well at a time when country music was dominated by outlaw country artists like Willie Nelson and David Allan Coe. "Three Sheets in the Wind"/"I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" became her first charting single in 1978 (see 1978 in music), and was followed by the bigger hit "(You Lift Me) Up to Heaven" (1980, 1980 in music). With more pop-oriented balladry, McEntire began to expand her audience during the early 1980s, signing to MCA Records in 1984 (see 1984 in music) and becoming one of the best-selling country artists of all time, releasing three volumes of greatest hits collections.

(steve bogard, rick giles)
Sometimes you treat me so cruel.
I dont think I can take it.
Sometimes you hurt me so bad, I just wanna die.
But in a moment like this.
With a tender touch and a lovers kiss,
You put all of my
Pain aside and I say to you with my eyes,
Do right by me and make it last forever.
Tonight I need to be here in your arms.
Where the hurting ends and the love begins.
Do right by me and Ill never do you wrong.
It feels so good to be so close like we were when
We started oooh back when the troubles were few
And the loving was blind.
Funny how people so close know the things to
Say that can hurt the most.
Baby why cant we just be kind and capture this moment in time.
Repeat chorus
