All I Ever Loved Was You. By Keith Whitley. . All I ever loved was you. You broke a heart that cried for you. I've wasted all my tears on you. For all I've ever loved was you..
My leading lady is gone. And it's so hard to go on. Without the part she played. My life's just an empty stage. . Though she's a hard act to follow. I thought I'd find somebody by now.
Darling I can see the clouds around you. And in your heart I know a sorrow grows. But if you weep I'll be right here to hold you. 'Til each tear you cry becomes a rose.
Rearview crosses. Railroad ties. Oh, Hail Marys. Friday nights. Heartbeat baby. Low-beam lights. God, I miss when you were mine. . Back when that song was a song.
I ain't half the man she makes me out to be. the way I see it, I'm not even half the man she needs. But to hear her tell it not only am I the rising and setting sun.
I've got two arms that reach for you. I've got two eyes that watch for you. And I've got a heart full of love it's true for you you you. I'd take the moon from the sky for you.
Such a little time has passed since you went away. Where are all these heartaches coming from. I can hardly stand the pain of missing you today and I know the worst is yet to come.
Since you went away I've had the blues everything is wrong since I lost you. Only God knows what I'm going through walk the floor and worry over you. Haven't slept a wink since you've been gone don't know how I'll stand this very long.
You've got me trapped by two lips that keep begging me to stay. Trapped by two arms that won't let me walk away. You don't love me but you don't want me to go.
Promises promises that's all I ever get. You said you'd quit that trucking but you ain't quit it yet. Each time you come dragging in you say I'll have my way.
You've got a way of makin' me blue. And I've got a way of hurtin' you too. Ooh what a terrible tangled web we're we don't we. You've got a gentleman on the side.
Well he rode that old truck out six days ago. I just stood and I listened till I couldn't hear a roar no more. I've been waitin' for him at night if you think I'm lonesome you're right.
I'm with my little girl the only friend left in the world. So I gave her a book to color on. Just to pass the time away this had been her longest day.
I'll play second fiddle to your new love while it lasts. Just like all the others I played for in the past. Why can't I be a leader and play a leading part.
I'm a gonna roll out the red carpet when you come home. I'm gonna treat you like the way I feel like you ain't never known. I'm gonna have brass band at the station.
You're always traveling on that truck day out and day in. And when you get back home it's nice to have you here again. You'd never run around on me cause you're not home that long.
I never know how long I'll get to hold you I never know and you'll find someone new. You're only mine when you grow tired of someone else. I'm just another stoppin' place for you.
The first time you hurt me I thought I'd died. The second time it happened I cried all night. They say a heart can stand just so much grief and pain. But a fool in love keeps lovin' they never change.
Everybody calls me the girl in a little pink Mack. The bumpers of chrome and so are the wheels and the stacks. It's got polka dot curtains hangin' on a sleeper of pink.
Well he told me I had what it takes,. And he told me all I needed was one lucky break.. then he played me, like he played his guitar,. And he said, "When you get to Nashville, I'll make you a star.".
