If it's magic. Then why can't it be everlasting. Like the sun that always shines. Like the poets in this rhyme. Like the galaxies in time. . If it's pleasing.
I flew from far away. They said the last notes of your tenor played. You faded fast, now I have one regret. I couldn't hold those hands that I loved the best.
I've grown accustomed to his face. He almost makes the day begin. I've grown accustomed. To the tune that he whistles night and noon. . His smiles, his frowns.
I can't stand the rain 'gainst my window. Bringing back sweet memories. Ican't stand the rain 'gainst my window. Cause he's not here with me. Hey window pain do you remember.
Once I was young. Yesterday, perhaps. Danced with Jim and Paul. And kissed some other chaps. . Once I was young. But never was naive. I thought I had a trick or two.
I am not such a clever one. About the latest fads. I admit I was never one. Adored by local lads. Not that I ever try to be a saint. I'm the type that they classify as quaint.
Love makes me treat you. The way that I do. Gee baby, ain't I good to you. . And there's nothing on this earth. This girl wouldn't do. Gee baby, ain't I good to you.
Gone with the wind. Just like a leaf that has blown away. Gone with the wind. My romance has flown away.. Yesterday's kisses are still on my lips,. I had a lifetime of heaven at my fingertips..
Forty days and forty nights. Since my baby done left this town. Oh the sun shinin' all day long. But the rain it just keeps on comin' down. She's my life I need her so.
He was drunk as Cooter Brown. Words fell from his tongue. With a slurring silver sound. He come this way from the other side of town. . He was drunk as Cooter Brown.
I'm a get up in the mornin'. I believe I'll dust my broom. I'm a get up in the mornin'. I believe I'll dust my broom. I quit the best girl I'm lovin'.
I got a letter this mornin'. What do you reckin'it read?. It said the gal you love is dead. I got a letter this mornin'. What do you reckin'it read?. .
The man I love, took from my best friend. That girl got lucky, stole 'em back again. You betta come on in my kitchen 'cause its gonna be. Raining outdoors.
When it's darkness on the delta. That's the time my heart is light. When it's darkness on the delta. Let me linger in the shelter of the night. . Fields of cotton all around me.
Late at night when all the world is safe. Within their dreams, I walk the shadows. Late at night an empty feeling creeps. Within my soul, I feel so lonely.
Blue skies looking at me. Nothing but blue skies do I see. . Bluebirds singing a song. Nothing but bluebirds from now on. . I never saw the sun shining so bright.
Night and stars above that shine so bright. The mystery of their fading light. That shines upon our caravan. . Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep. Across the sands so I may keep.
There's a crow flying. Dark and ragged. Tree to tree. he's black as the highway that's leading me. Now he's diving down. To pick up on something shiny.
A day in the life of a fool. A sad and a long lonely day. I walk the avenue. Hoping to run into. The very sight of you coming my way.. . I stop just in front of our door.
