When you left me lonely here, I thought that I would drown in tears. As one was wiped away, another one would take its place. Drop by drop as time went by, I slowly ran the river dry.
Walk away, leave with my blessing. Once in awhile let me hear from you. . If we never meet again. Before my life is over. I'll leave this world loving you.
There's nothin' in the world that can ever take the place of God's love. Silver and gold could never buy His love from above. When the soul needs healin' and I begin to feelin' His power.
I heard you cry yourself to sleep and wake up in the night and walk the floor. And I heard you try to tell me something just as I was running out the door.
You've got me callin' on the phone. You've got me cryin' all night long. But baby, I love you, baby, yes I love you. . Heard people sayin' lots of things.
I heard him say, "I love you". I heard him say, "Forever". And without you, he'd rather be dead. I felt my hands shaking. I felt my heart breaking. 'Cause I meant every word he said.
Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine. I don't care if the bells don't chime. Just as long as you love me. I don't care if the tops don't spin. I don't care if the gins won't gin.
Oh you won't see me smile again no not for a while. 'Cause way down here on lonely street there's heartaches by the mile. I try to hold my head up and forget about the past.
I used to think I was the only one. Who never knew what it was like to fall. But you came along and changed all the rules that day. And just for a moment I had it all.
People come and go. People change their minds. People give there hearts. And mean it at the time. . A shift in the wind. No reason why. And at the drop of a tear.
I like the old ones and I like 'em new. Everything about them fits my attitude. No matter where they're going or where they're from. I like to watch 'em go by, each and every one.
I only feel like I feel with you and nobody else. And I only want to be with you and be myself. But when I look in your eyes something happens to. Me everytime and I cant seem to find what to say to you.
Well you told me to come to Dallas. It'll be okay this time. And I know that you would like it. Won't you sit back and tell me things. That I know you need me to hear.
Just before the old man's eyeballs fixed. He went pale as an Eskimo. He said, "Young man, I've been eighty-six. But young man, before I go. . I'm gonna leave you with a piece of advice.
You were everything and that's what I gave you. But you don't love me and I don't hate you. Or maybe I did, but just for a minute. 'Cause you wanted me to live my life without you in it.
Well, there once was a feller named Willard McVane. And he only had just one thought on his brain. Every evening about midnight he'd sneak off alone. And call the same lady on a pay telephone.
When I'm calling you, ooh. If you answer too, ooh. . That means that I offer my love to you. To be your own. If you refuse me, I will be blue. And waiting all alone.
Many, many years ago when I was twenty-three. I was married to a widow who was pretty as could be. This widow had a grown-up daughter who had hair of red.
I hear our President talkin' bad,. About the way we live here in this country,. Harpin' on the wars we fight,. An' gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be..
