Love is like a young tree that lives or dies and then becomes a mem'ry of tragedy. Soon you'll be far away and free forever gone but you'll always be a part of me.
Last night she let the strong red wine carry her away. She smoked up her old sunshine as if it still shined every day. Her hand reached out and touched my face in the shame Lord from my eyes.
I didn't hear the engines of a jet plane. I didn't hear the whistle of a train. I didn't hear the taxi driver knockin' on my door. I didn't hear her walkin' cross the floor.
Sweetheart, it's been several days now. Since they found me on the street. But since then an old friend Lonely Five. And he's got me back on my feet. .
I just left San Antonio. Heading down to the town of Laredo. Got my mind on the border of Mexico. . Gonna stop for a tank off. To go at a place called a Purple Sombrero.
My driftin' mem'ry goes back to the spring of '43. When I was just a child in mama's arms. My daddy plowed the ground and prayed that some day we could leave.
You're gettin' heavy on my mind. You've made me warmer than the sunshine. I think about you all the time. You're gettin' heavy on my mind. . Not long ago it seemed.
More than once I've cried because impatience let me down. I could see the gold before the gold was found. And everytime I've trusted love to lead me by the hand.
I'd beg and steal if I could feel a touch of yesterday. Oh what I'd give if I could live a touch of yesterday. The rain's been falling since he's been gone it's gonna rain until he come back home.
Baby I can't believe you I can barely conceive you. Cause baby you're just too good to be true impossible you. Well the Sandman must be scheeming playing games with my dreaming.
Out of all the hearts you've known and could have chosen. The blessings of your love surrounded me. For me the door of love had long been closing. If not for you I'd still be searching for my dreams.
Run away little tears. You've been locked up too long. Run away little tears. Our baby's gone. . I look at his picture. Touchin' old souvenir. And then grow weak from holding back.
LOVING YOU HAS SURE BEEN GOOD TO ME. (Dallas Frazier - Earl Montgomery). '78 Blue Crest Music. . I can't believe the things I hear and see but there you are.
I'd love to forget every time that you kissed me I'd love to forget that you're gone. I'd gladly hold back every tear that I'm crying but love has a mind of its own.
Before you left, I set myself some crying time aside. I knew that getting over you would take my heart some time. But love won't fade or slip away to please my foolish pride.
You're going away, it's gonna rain today. . There's coldness in the wind, the clouds have changed again. From blue to gray, it's gonna rain today. It won't be long from now with tears my head will bow.
Ol' heart the way our true love has been doin'. Just rips and tears my pride right half in two. I know you're just as much ashamed as I am. So if you won't tell on me I won't tell on you.
I know the heartaches are coming cause I know you're going away. There's no gladness in your voice when you say darling. There's no sweetness in your lips when they meet mine.
How sweet it is to know someone like you. Someone that's glad to walk with me every step of the way. How sweet it is to know a love that's true. A love that keeps on growing stronger every day.
In my world there's no green grass or roses. And the rainbow in the sky is gray to me. There's no letter in the mailbox from my baby. Well, how much lonelier can lonely be.
