The night was made for dreaming. I miss you so, my dear. Life had lost it's meaning. You're no longer near. There's nothing left for me to do. I couldn't win.
I know I've hurt you,I've seen the teardrops in your eyes. I try to tell you: "I apologize...". The things I've said and done. Were never quite the way I feel for you.
It's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine. And every day's the same since I met you. It's such a pretty world today knowing that you're mine.
If you hear some footsteps walking close behind you in the night. And you look around and no one do you see. If you feel someone is watching you and there's no one in sight.
It's not me that you speak to when you're talking in your sleep. It's not me I can tell by all the secrets that you keep. It's not me you're always dreaming of oh how it hurts to know which your new love.
I'm coming, yes I'm coming home. You know that I'll be there. I'm coming now, don't you try to phone. Or turn the music down low. I'm coming, yes I'm coming.
If this house could talk oh what a story although it's only made of wood and stone. How it could brag about its days of glory when it almost became a happy home.
An acre of diamonds I'd offered to you a solid gold mansion an airplane or two. This world would be yours dear to have and to hold. If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.
If hurt was a tavern then I'd have a home. Somewhere to miss you since you've been gone. If pain was a bottle and tears were neon signs. If heartaches were wine I'd stay drunk all the time.
I've got to change and to stop my running round. She tried so hard to build me up now I'm on my way down. She tried to keep me happy all I've cost her was pain.
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill, he sounds too blue to fly. That midnight train is whining low, I'm so lonesome I could cry. . I've never seen a night so long when time goes crawlin' by.
I'm not in your town to stay said a lady old and gray. To the warden of a penitentiary. I'm not in your town to stay and I'll soon be on my way. I'm just here to get my baby out of jail.
I'm gonna find you I'm gonna find you I'm gonna find you if it's the last thing I do. I'm a goin' lookin' in the night time I'm gonna find you. Any time will be the right time I'm gonna find you.
I sat there with my teardrops showing just the way I felt. Looking at the emptiness the one I love had left. My little boy said daddy mama's left us all alone.
I wish I had a girl someone to love me true. I wish I had a sweetheart just like you. Someone to hold me close and never break a vow. And I know that we could get along somehow.
I was born in Macon Georgia they kept my dad in the Macon jail. Dad said, "Son if you keep your hands clean. You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail.
Once I lived a life of wine and roses I drank a lot back then so one concern. Success for me lay just around the corner. I thought my social friends could help me make me turn.
Ten dollars for my wedding band that's all the man would pay. But then I slipped it from my hand I pawned my past today. Not long ago we said goobye and went our seperate ways.
Funny how the spring brings back your mem'ry. And the summer finds you always on my mind. In the loneliness of fall I can almost hear you call. But it seems I miss you most in the winter time.
I was ridin' No. 9. Headin' south from Caroline. I heard that lonesome whistle blow. . Got in trouble had to roam. I left my friends and left my home.
