On a mountain stands a mansion so fine. And it looks down on this cabin of mine. I had a love and I loved her true. But along came a rich man and he loved her to.
Well, the rain just touched the flower in the meadow. But the rain alone won't make the flowers grow. I watch the flowers wither from my window. And so honey, if you want me to I'll go.
I've got a tiger by the tail it's plain to see. I won't be much when you get through with me. I'm losin' weight and turnin' kinda pale. Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail.
I need you so I can't let go I'm not through loving you. . If only I had realized we had so little time. I might have seen the loneliness that pushed me from your mind.
I sat there with my teardrops showing just the way I felt. Looking at my emptiness the one I love had left. My little boy said daddy mommie's left us all alone.
I was sittin' here thinking about some old times. Some old times some old friends. And suddenly it came and crossed my mind. And I would like to see you again.
I woke up and the world was gone. . You promised a new world, you showed me. And made me believe it did exist. And now you pretend you don't know me. And you say that world was a mess.
Now you give me your kisses and that matches fine. But you've been a givin' them all with everybody down the line. And I've had enough so I'm a gettin' up.
The cross that you bear may be hard to carry. The pain you feel so hard understand. Bur every pain that you feel he died just to heal. I want to do Thy will oh Lord.
Once I lived a life of wine and roses. And I drank a lot back then for one concern. Success for me lay just around the corner. I thought my social friends would help me make the turn.
I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin. I wouldn't let my dear Saviour in. Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night. Praise the Lord, I saw the light.
When all your loves have ended. When all your friends have flown. Who'll be around to want you. When all your loves have gone. . Only a fool would do it.
You think that you know the smile on her lips. The thrill at the touch of her fingertips. But I forgot more than you'll ever know about her. . You think you'll find a heaven of bliss.
I don't love you anymore not the way I did before. And since you've found someone new I think it's best. I don't cry and walk the floor I don't love you anymore.
She's gone again but she'll be home tomorrow. And looks like I could burn and save myself some sorrow. A fooling love sometimes just can change. And I don't have sense enough to come in out of the pain.
And I don't feel at home in this house anymore. . I look out a bar window, at our rolling green lawn. And I'm trying to remember just where we went wrong.
Everybody says, oh, you let me down. That I should be ashamed to take you 'round. What makes no difference, what you used to do. Darling, I could never be ashamed of you.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent. I had a little money but that's all been spent. When I look back I wonder where it went. It ain't no joke I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.
I wantcha' back; I wantcha' by my side again. girl.. I wantcha' back. oh. I wantcha' back.. I'll never hurt your pride again. girl.. I wantcha' back. oh.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Two people, just meeting, barely touching each other. Two spirits, greeting, tryna carry each further. You are one, and I am another.
