Anywhere you are, I am near. Anywhere you go, I'll be there. Anytime you whisper my name. You'll see. . How every single promise I'll keep. 'Cause what kind of guy would I be.
I keep listening, very quietly. You're discussing, your philosophy. There's a long list, of what's wrong with me. And you go on talking endlessly, now.
Every time I try to look away. See your face on our reflection. Every choice I try to make, I pray. Leeds me in a right direction. I don't know what it is, but I know I missing it.
Well, I wake up in the mornin', I brew my coffee hot and strong. I get out my ole guitar, and try to write a song. An them larks are singin, oh Lord, just outside.
It's safe to say we're on our way. To a place that takes us far away,. Here we go, here we go.. It's breakaway to a brighter day,. To a place where there's no time and chase,.
Just barely eighteen when the Great War was through. Ridin' and fighin' was all that I knew. Hard life and death was all that I seen. Ridin' hell bend for leather in search of a dream.
In a world so cold. Not a hand to hold. Feel you're on your own. I'm there for you. . When the day is done. And the battle's won. Know you're not alone.
Only the lonely. Know the way I feel tonight. Only the lonely. Know this feeling ain't right. There goes my baby. There goes my heart. They're gone forever.
He was a runaway rodeo was his dream. He was ridin' bulls and a bittin' the dust by the time he was seventeen. Sixteen cowboys in an eight dollar room livin' on baloney and beans.
Don't tell me that you love me. Or that you'll never leave me. Give me one day in your life. . Just put your arms around me. And tell me that you need me.
He walked out in the arena all dressed up to the brim. Said he just came down from a place called Highland Rim. And he said he came to ride the horse the one they called the Brute.
Pretty woman, walkin' down the street. Pretty woman the kind I like to meet. Pretty woman I don't believe you, you're not the truth. No one could look as good as you mercy.
He's rugged rough and ready his lady's soft and pretty. There must be ten years difference in their ages I suppose. But you don't see any traces or sadness in the faces.
Long legged. Good looking. You got everything. Slow walking. You come up. Then I notice the ring. I notice the ring. . You're talking, I'm listening,.
Let's take a drive through the old town,. Back past the place where we meet.. Some things are hard to remember,. Some things you'll never forget.. . Let's take a walk down your old street,.
On a highway through the desert beneath an overpass. Sat two hikers just watchin' cars go by. Now one was wearin' sandles with straggly matted hair. Rose colored glasses for his eyes.
Days can be lonely. Night lets you down. Wonder and wander. There's no one around. Nothing to say now, nothing to do. I can feel my heart breaking. And it's all 'cause of you.
Been workin' like a dawg, slavin' on the fence line. Stretchin' those wires tight. Diggin' and tappin' and sweatin' in the sunshine. But I get off tonight.
Evening shadows make me blue. When each weary day is through. How I long to be with you. My happiness. . Every day I reminisce. Dreaming of your tender kiss.
She opened up the letter from Nashville Tennessee. He said hon they like my music the songs I wrote for you and me. The boys and me just cut a record and it could hit the charts before too long.
