Take us back, oh, take us back Oh, take us, take us back The tops of crags and cliffs, the air is thin So we'll find a mountain path on down the hill Meet me where the snow mount flows It is there, my dear, where we will begin again Skipping stones,

Oh I will become what I deserve I've been worryin', I've been worryin' My, my cold hearted child, tell me how you feel I been worryin' that my time is a little unclear I been worryin' that I'm losing the one's I hold dear I been worryin' that we all live

Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you Counting my footsteps, Praying the floor won't fall through, again My mother accused me of losing

Don't run away Don't slip away my dear Why can't you stay? Ooh make love to me One more time Before you go away Ooh, my love Come home to me Just for a while

Bangin' on the ceiling The sky is a neighborhood Keep it down Oh my dear Heaven is a big band now Gotta get to sleep somehow Don't look now heart is a storybook A star burned out

My yesterday was blue dear Today I'm a part of you dear My lonely nights are through dear Since you said you were mine Oh, what a difference a day makes There's a rainbow before me Skies above can't be stormy since that moment of bliss That thrilling

Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight You almost had your hooks in me, didn't you dear You nearly had me roped and tied Altar-bound, hypnotized Sweet freedom whispered in my ear You're a butterfly And butterflies are free to fly Fly

You are appreciated Don't you know I love you? Although my shadow's gone I will never leave you (Dear mama) Oh mama, I appreciate you

In my grave, I'll rot I've dug two graves for us, my dear Can't pretend that I was perfect, leaving you in fear Oh man, what a world, the things I hear If I could act on my revenge, then, oh, would I? Some kill, some steal, some break your heart Well,

Unh, my dearest darling Oh I pledge my love to you With God as our guide Oh nothing, nothing, nothing in this world Can keep us apart I offer you my heart Is someone like you My dearest darling
