If today the sun should set on all my hopes and cares. There is one who's smiling face the Gods would see. 'Cause she'll walk along beside me up those golden stairs.
When I hear the rain a comin' down it makes me sad and blue. Was on a rainy night like this that Flo said we were through. I told her how I loved her, and I begged her not to go.
Pictures for my souvineers. Old love letters stained with tears. Memories of someone I cannot forget. Though the love we shared is gone. Sweetest dreams still linger on.
Would you be free from your burden of sin. There's power in the blood power in the blood. Would you o'er evil a victory win. There's wonderfull power in the blood.
There's no more you and me. There's just a memory. A sometimes, now and then,. Is all we shared. He's still a part of you. Wish I had the power to. Give back the smile to me.
There's no wings on my angel. 'Cause she's not from Heaven above. No halo on my angel. But she's still the one that I love. . Well, I know love is blind still I can see.
One cold winter's night not a star was in sight. Then the North wind came howling down the line. With his sweetheart so dear stood a brave engineer. With his orders to pull old Number Nine..
I saw you last night, again, darlin'. And you seemed just as lovely to me. I watched as you danced with a stranger. And you seemed just as happy as he.
I wake up in the mornin', and the birds are singin' love songs in the distance. And the first ray of sunshine, overcomes my window panes resistance. As I lay there for a minute, til that sleep slowly clear from my head.
On a cold day and dark cloudy ev'nin'. Just before the close of day. There came Harry Lyle and Dillard. And with Anderson they rode away.. . From Clifton Forge they started.
Why did you have to care about me. And make your plans for just we two. Well, my heart's now pledged to another. How can I ever have just you. . This is the way of a hopeless love.
The days of my youth I remember so well. We lived in a world all our own. Nobody cared where my money came from. If I had it I wasn't alone. . Oh, the wine flowed freely and friendship was mine.
You were there in my arms alone in the moonlight. The trees played the waltz of the wind. It was there that I knew I'd love you forever. We danced to the waltz of the wind.
I'd give anything to feel again. The warmness of your body close to mine. Like the foggy dew that drifts away. A love we knew drifted away with time. I'd give anything to feel again.
There's someone in my arms who really needs me. And she dosen't turn from me the way you do. She's not you and I know that she can't be. But she's needin' me the way I'm needin' you.
I've heard it said, what you don't know. Won't make you blue. But somehow with these words I can't agree. 'Cause it's not the things I know you do. That breaks my heart, you see.
Someday I'm going to write. The story of my life. I'll tell about the night we met. And how my heart can't forget. The way you smiled at me. . I want the world to know.
I was hangin' 'round town, just spendin' my time. Out of a job, not earnin' a dime. A feller steps up and he said, "I suppose. You're a bronc fighter from looks of your clothes".
Walked with no one and talked with no one. And I had nothing but shadows. Then one morning you passed. And I brightened at last. Now I greet the day and complete the day.
The same two lips that once told me they loved me. Are the same two lips that now tell me goodbye. And the same two hands that once held mine so tightly.
