If I had the right to do you wrong I'd do you right and never do wrong. If I had the heart to leave you and part I'd give up my heart and stay. . How could a girl in her right mind treat such a true love as you are unkind.
I can see what's on your mind I can tell you every time you thought of leavin'. Thought that I just wait and see how long you keep deceiving me with all your cheatin'.
Down the road of love I see sign after sign. That tells me you're no longer mine. But a heart full of love is a heart sad and blind. I love you so and it hurts me to know that.
I've got you on my mind again. You've been there since I don't know when. I said that I'd forget, that I'd never look back. That I'd find somebody else, a little further down the track.
I may not have your warm and tender lips to kiss goodnight. I may not have your gentle loving arms to hold me tight. But I've got something you and time can never take away.
I've got him thinking that I'm happy but what he's thinking isn't true. For I've been lonely since we parted he thinks I'm happy I've got him fooled. He don't know that I still love him for I don't let my hurt show through.
You're back in town again, spreading talk around. That I'm still in love with you though you let me down. I hate to admit it but I guess the talk is true.
I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU TOO LONG (TO STOP NOW). Writers Jerry Butler, Otis Redding. . I've been loving you too long to stop now There were times.. and you want to be free My love is growing stronger, as you become a haven to me (Ohh) I've been loving you (a tiny bit) too long I don't wanna stop now (PAUSE) (SPOKEN:This is the soulful part) With you my life (huh) Has been so wonderful I can't stop now There were times.. and your love is growing cold My love is growing stronger as our affair (affair) grows old I've been loving you (about that much) too long To stop now ohh ohh ohh I've been loving you a little bit too long I don't wanna stop now No No No Don't make me stop now No baby I'm down on my knees Please, don't make me stop now I love you, I love you, I love you with all of my heart And I can't stop now Don't make me stop now Please, please don't make me stop now (Good god of mine)I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you in so many different ways... I love you in so many different ways.... (FADE OUT).
All my life I had nothing but trouble. I can't find no way to ease my aching heart. And I feel as though that I'm forgotten. I'm so lonesome since we've been apart.
I'm tired of pretending that I don't care for you. I'm tired of pretending that I found someone new. Each lonely night keeps lending an atmosphere that's blue.
I'm throwing rice at the girl that I love. After she just said I do. I'm throwing rice with a smile on my lips. But my heart is breaking in two. . She was my gal and he was my pal.
Ervin Drake. . When I was seventeen, it was a very good year. It was a very good year for small town girls and soft summer nights.. We'd hide from the light on the village green when I was seventeen..
Rod McKuen. . Shy one, dear one, keeper of my heart. She moves in the pantry quietly apart.. There she pours the flour. There she kneads the dough to an isle in the water with her I would go..
Mason Williams. . You love me for lovin' you,. You are you because I do.. I love you for lovin' me. And I am me because you do.. So much with us in love are we:.
If you see me go, well, don't you look my way. You just turn your head, don't you watch me walk away. . Well, you know, my gal, this time I'm leavin' you to stay.
They told me doncha go down to that city. Don't you go down to that city, I say. For there's trouble there for sure and it's no concern of yours. And it's all I have to hear them people say.
If I had a ship, I'd sail away. If I had a ship, I'd sail away. Leave my sorrows where they lay. If I had a ship, I'd sail away. . Stroll down by the sea.
Well, no matter where I wandered I know I'll always find a welcome at the end of every journey. There'll be friendly people waitin'. . [Chorus:]. California would not hold me 'though I loved her timber mountains..
Chorus:. Oh, I'm a rake and a ramblin' boy. There's many a city, Lord, I did enjoy,. But now I'm married, got a pretty little wife and I love her dearer than I love my life..
Alex Harvey. . I like to hear the rain when you're lying by my side, 'neath the fireplace, so soft and warm.. I like to hear the rain when you're locked inside my arms and I know you feel safe from any harm..
