Let Me Live With Love (and Die With You) Lyrics - Ricky Van Shelton

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 said, I thank the Lord for blessing me with feelings 

And the strength to work and live the way I do 

And then I asked my two most wanted wishes 

Let me live with love and die with you 

Now the woman in that story was my mama 

So I'm passing on a family legacy 

And when I tell you that I feel just like my daddy 

And every night I fall down on my knees 

And I thank the Lord for blessing me with feelings 

And the strength to work and live the way I do 

And then I asked my two most wanted wishes 

Let me live with love and die with you 

Yes, let me live with love and die with you
