I can't stop lovin' you To live in memory Of old lonesome times I can't stop wantin' you So I'll just live my life So I've made up my mind It's useless to say In dreams of yesterday Those happy hours That we once knew

Like Haggard, Hank and her Nobody makes me cry, nobody gets me high Nobody says goodbye and takes me back in time To the place that we once were Nobody thrills me, nobody chills me Nobody kills me Whiskey knows my weakness Bartender knows my pain My

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me Not like it's hurt me before (Not like it's hurt before) I’m not alone anymore (I’m not alone anymore) For once I can say This is mine you can’t take it As long as I know I have love I can make it For once

Born from silence, silence full of it A perfect concert, my best friend So much to live for, so much to die for If only my heart had a home Sing what you can't say Forget what you can't play Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes Walk within my poetry, this

With a satisfied mind How many times have You heard someone say If I had his money I could do things my way But little they know That it's so hard to find One rich man in ten Once I was waitin'

How does it feel, how does it feel? Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone To be on your own, with no direction home Once upon a time you dressed so fine Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People call say 'beware doll, you're bound

(C-c-coming down, drippin' candy on the ground) Take me off, take me off, take me off The capital B means, I'm 'bout that life (If you 'bout it, 'bout it) (Well say you, well you say you) Listen, I been on, I been on, I been on Tell me who gon' take me

But I sure know what to say: I love you I wanna love you in the morning Love you in the evening too Once in a while I pop around Now I may not be familiar with your language But I sure would like to cross over your bridge Said I may not dress in style as

If I die tonight Tonight's the night I get in some shit Plotting on murdering motherfuckers 'fore they get you A coward dies a thousand deaths A soldier dies but once They say pussy and paper is poetry power and pistols Picturing pitiful punk niggas

For once in my life I have someone who needs me For once I can say this is mine, you can't take it Someone I've needed so long For once, unafraid I can go where life leads me And somehow I know I'll be strong For once I can touch what my heart used to
