It was long ago but I remember
Her face still comes back to me
She was a blue eyed girl with lips like honey
The fairest I will ever see
Thinkin 'bout love I'm thinkin 'bout love
Thinkin 'bout love honey I'm thinkin 'bout love
I knew I'd found a friend the night I met her
She made me feel right at ease
I made a promise then I would not forget her
I swore my love on bended knee
Thinkin 'bout love...
And if I saw her now would she remember
All the things we used to do
I like to think sometimes someday I'll find her
Give her all my love so true
Thinkin 'bout love...
I'm fallin in love I'm fallin in love
I'm fallin in love with a real fine girl
I'm fallin in love yes I'm fallin in love
I'm fallin in love with a real fine girl
My oh my sweet apple pie
My oh my I'm gonna laugh when I die
I'm fallin in love I'm fallin in love
I'm fallin in love with a real fine girl
Faces on her knees she's got faces on her knees
Honey oh please don't ya be such a tease
I'm fallin in love honey I'm fallin in love
I'm fallin in love with a real fine girl
I'm fallin in love I'm fallin in love
I'm fallin in love with a real fine girl
I'm fallin in love yes I'm fallin in love
I'm fallin in love with a real fine girl
All your family knows that I'm your man
Did they ever ask you my name?
I've been comin' here for a year or so
Funny how things are still the same
Did they ever ask you if I was on the run?
I've been on the run all my life
Can't say where I've been
You're like a wayside in th me
Walkin' alone on a cold windy night
I thought I heard a voice in the air
Soft and low as you called my name
I listened once again it wasn't there
Did you ever wonder if I was on the run?
I've been on the run all my life
Can't say where I've been
You're like a wayside in to me
Steal you away in the dawn of the night
Do they leave the light on for you?
All your family knows that I'm your man
Did they ever ask you my name?
I've been comin' here for a year or so
Funny how things are still the same
Can't say where I've been
You're like a wayside inn to me
I know I've been hidin'
And it's achin' in my heart
It's been goin' on a long time
And it's tearin' us apart
I'm tryin' hard to love you
But there's something in the way
If it's gonna make a difference
I won't leave I will stay
Stand still right where we are
Stand still find each other's heart
The only thing we have to prove
Is what we prove to ourselves
The only thing we have to do
Is learn to love someone else
Stand still right where we are
Stand still find each other's heart
When we wake up in the morning
We're gonna face it all again
Are we gonna make a new start?
Or are we comin' to the end?
Stand still right where we are
Stand still find each others heart
Stand still
Seems like long ago but it was yesterday
Life can change so suddenly
Never thought you would take my serious
When I said I wanted to be free
We go way back a long long time
Yes I'm certain other lives
What made you ever think that I would leave you?
Did you see something in my eyes?
When I was your man I kept you safe from harm
Remember how I held you cradled in my arms
Darlin' can you feel the achin' in my heart?
Remember when I told you we would never part?
Seems like all the time I was foolin' you
But in the end the jokes on me
Never thought this would get so serious
But it was never easy lovin' me
The river's deep and the river's wide
Something's goin' on on the other side
They're lookin' for something they got no clues
Down by the river you get muddy boots
Down by the river you get muddy boots
Back in the woods where the rodents hide
Under the leaves where something's died
The possee's comin' stop or they'll shoot
Down by the river you get muddy boots
Down by the river you get muddy boots
The river's deep and the river's wide
Go down river find a place to hide
They're lookin' for something can't find the truth
Down by the river you get muddy boots
Down by the river you get muddy boots
How many times have I
Walked up these steps to your gate
Where you wait in the late afternoon?
Sit by your patio sip iced tea and
Lie awake as we wait for the moon
You were so afraid of it
I was, too
But what could kill the
stars in our eyes?
Just give it a try
When you say goodbye to me
When your airplane flies
Bring yer love on home to me
Bring yer love on home
When your ship sets sail
Blow a kiss from the rail to me
When you turn away
Bring yer love on home to me
Bring yer love on home
Baby I'm hear on the ground
Cause my ticket can't be found
Baby turn around
Cause I've fallen in love with you
and I need you baby
Just give it a try
When you say goodbye to me
When your airplane flies
Bring yer love on home to me
Bring yer love on home
Here I am again standin' on the side of the road
Waitin' for the bus to come
I wonder should I go back I wonder if it's too late
I wonder where it's coming from
Give me a reason to want to live in this town anymore
I just wanna have some good air to breath
And the sun outside my door
Maybe I'll head south all the way to Sedona
I'll make a sojourn there
Pray up on the red rocks sleep down in the canyon
I'll find my peace I swear
Give me a reason to want to live in this town anymore
I just wanna have some good air to breath
And the sun outside my door
Here I am again stuck in the same old place
It just goes on and on
I swear one of these days I'm gonna break lose
Drop these chains and I'll be gone
Give me a reason to want to live in this town anymore
I just wanna have some good air to breath
And the sun outside my door
Cryin's for a reason
It offers a release
And if you cry hard enough
You can find some peace
Its never easy to walk away
But I'm through livin' for yesterday
The big time has passed me by
I do the best I can
And sometimes it makes me cry and
I'm a grateful man
Sometimes life is fair
And sometimes it's not
Sometimes you take a chance
On everything you've got
There's one thing for certain
Nothin' stays the same
My heart was hurtin'
I woudn't play the game
The big time has passed me by
I do the best I can
And sometimes it makes me cry and
I'm a grateful man
There are so few things that we can talk about
I'm afraid we'll soon run out of things to say
We're in different places running different races
I guess soon I'll have to go
When I met you I was sure that things were right
But in time I found no love I found no light
Leaving with such sorrow feel bad tomorrow
I guess soon I'll have to go
When I think about what you're gonna say
I really wish there was some other way
I know that soon it will be time to say goodbye
There are no more smiles and few tears left to cry
Love can be a sad thing but its not a bad thing
I guess soon I'll have to go
