Tracks is the sixth studio album by American country music artist Collin Raye. It contains the singles "Couldn't Last a Moment", "Loving This Way" (also known as "Tired of Loving This Way"), and "You Still Take Me There". "Couldn't Last a Moment" was Raye's final Top 40 hit on the Billboard country charts at number 3, while the other two singles both failed to reach Top 40. Two of this album's tracks were later recorded by Kenny Rogers: "Harder Cards" on his 2003 album Back to the Well, and "Water and Bridges" on his 2006 album of the same name.
