Somewhere there should be for all the world to see. A statue of a fool, made of stone. The image of a man, who let love slip through his hands. And then just let him stand there all alone.
Hello, yeah this is me. Lord it's been a long, long time. I know this ain't no social call. So go ahead get it off your mind. . You heard what well it ain't true.
You tell me life will go on that I'll be all right once you're gone. But my heart knows that just ain't true I can't imagine love without you. Said you'll always be there for me now I don't know what to believe.
Well, the morning that I met you baby, I could feel the heat. My blood started fallin' from my head down to my feet. You started a fire way deep down in my soul, baby in my soul.
Look at her move inside of that skin tight dress. Don't it make your heart want to break right through your chest. And if she should softly speak your name.
She hangs up the phone and her heart starts to pound. Someone just told her an old friend's in town. And a million old feelings come rushing in. Start tearing to pieces what it took years to mend.
If she seems cold and bitter. Then I beg of you. Just stop and consider. All she's gone through. . Don't be quick to condemn her. For things she might say.
Honey, sit down, let me tell you what I'm thinking. A story I remember as a kid. About a man who tried to tell his wife he loved her. And the strong and simple heart felt way he did.
He was sitting beside me in the passenger seat. As I looked through the windshield at the quiet little street. He was smiling so proud as he gave me the key.
When you left me lonely here, I thought that I would drown in tears. As one was wiped away, another one would take its place. Drop by drop as time went by, I slowly ran the river dry.
Walk away, leave with my blessing. Once in awhile let me hear from you. . If we never meet again. Before my life is over. I'll leave this world loving you.
There's nothin' in the world that can ever take the place of God's love. Silver and gold could never buy His love from above. When the soul needs healin' and I begin to feelin' His power.
I heard you cry yourself to sleep and wake up in the night and walk the floor. And I heard you try to tell me something just as I was running out the door.
You've got me callin' on the phone. You've got me cryin' all night long. But baby, I love you, baby, yes I love you. . Heard people sayin' lots of things.
I heard him say, "I love you". I heard him say, "Forever". And without you, he'd rather be dead. I felt my hands shaking. I felt my heart breaking. 'Cause I meant every word he said.
Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine. I don't care if the bells don't chime. Just as long as you love me. I don't care if the tops don't spin. I don't care if the gins won't gin.
today. i saw your best friend. and i asked her. how you've been. then she started talking. about your newfound man. she said. you had. the brightest glow.
I laughed it off when she left. I thought she'd come back again. Don't we all have the right. To be wrong now and then. . She won't come home. She says her love will never be mine again.
She had a rag top Eldorado tuck-in-row pleat. She picked me up in Colorado and put me right in the drivers seat. I said I got no money, you know I got no job.
A lost a real good friend of mine, a couple o' days ago. Got my wheels spinning. I got laughing 'cause I know what he's doing now. Twenty thousand plus barefoot with his old guitar.
