My daddy told me always be strong son Don't you ever cry You find the pretty girls, and then you love them And then you say goodbye I never dreamed that you would leave me But now you're gone I never dreamed that I would miss you Woman won't you come

What you call me? (tramp!) No you didn't! (you don't wear continental clothes, or Stetson hats) Well, I tell you one doggone thing It makes me feel good to know one thing, I know I am a lover (Matter of opinion) that's all right, mama was, papa too And

Is that we're damn good at holding on And the only thing that keeps us from being gone And our love is made from lonely broken hearts Oh, kiss me, baby Tell me that you love me even though I know sometimes you hate me We spend most of our days together

What are we supposed to do After all that we've been through When everything that felt so right is wrong Now that the love is gone? There is nothing left to prove No use to deny this simple truth Can't find the reason to keep holding on Now that the love

Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved But what are we running from? A show of hands from those in this audience of one Where have they gone? And now all my friends are gone I can still remember The words and what they meant As we etched

And it took a wild heart to charm Now a wild heart has gone and floored me With this ever lasting glance But this ever lasting glance I wouldn't have you any other way Who wants love that makes sense anyway? But it took a wild heart to tame mine Mortal

I can still love you from here But no matter how far you go My love is strong, won't lose a hold Just 'cause you're gone won't mean we've disappeared Just know that You packed your clothes and all your stuff 'Til there was nothin' left of us Guess what

In the silence of my mind I can see our love was just a line To a grasp of air That's nowhere And while I wait for love's embrace My life is but a race Since you're gone now All my light is left to waste I never learned the rule

What you call me? (tramp!) No you didn't! (you don't wear continental clothes, or Stetson hats) Well, I tell you one doggone thing It makes me feel good to know one thing, I know I am a lover (Matter of opinion) that's all right, mama was, papa too And

Her love's like rain on a tin roof Sweet song on a summer time storm And the way that it moves you It's a melody of passion raging on Then it's gone Her eyes are blue just like the ocean Her heart is a river free Well now and then she gets the notion And
