Missing your loving touch And the arms that mean so much, Loving you constantly Has been the downfall of me. Missing you day and night My empty arms don't seem right My life is full of misery Yes, you're the downfall of me Interlude: If I see you once again That spark of love might begin I can't stand too much pain Misery drives me insane Refrain: (instrumental) Refrain:
You're the reason I'm in love You're my shining star above You're my every dream come true That's why I love you like I do Adam shared his love with Eve Some may doubt but I believe I would give my life for you That's why I love you like I do (instrumental) Man wasn't meant to be alone He needs a girl to call his own The only girl for me is you That's why I love you like I do You're the reason I'm in love You're my shining star above You're my every dream come true That's why I love you like I do
My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine Softer than a sigh My love is deeper than the deepest ocean Wider than the sky My love is brighter than the brightest star That shines every night above And there is nothing in this world that could ever change my love. Something happened to my heart the day that I met you Something that I never felt before You are always on my mind, no matter what I do And every day it seems I want you more Refrain: Once I thought that love was meant for anyone else but me Once I thought you'd never come my way Now it only goes to show how wrong we all can be For now I have to tell you every day Refrain:
Ramblin' Rose, Ramblin' Rose, Why you ramble no one knows. Wild and wind-blown, that's how you've grown Who can cling to a ramblin' rose? Ramble on, ramble on, When your rambling days are gone Who will love you with a love true When your rambling days are gone? (instrumental stanza) Ramblin' Rose, Ramblin' Rose, Why I want you heaven knows Though I love you with a love true Who can cling to a ramblin' rose?
Higher than the highest mountain Deeper than the deepest sea That's how I will love you Oh, darlin', endlessly Softer than the gentle breezes Stronger than the wild oak tree That's how I will hold you Oh, darlin', endlessly Interlude: Oh, my love, you are my heaven, You are my kingdom, you are my crown Oh, my love, you're all I pray for You were made for these arms to surround Faithful as a moment's sunrise Safe as a love can be That's how I will love you, Oh, darlin', endlessly (instrumental: first two lines of interlude) Oh, my love, you're all I pray for You were made for these arms to surround Faithful as a moment's sunrise Safe as a love can be That's how I will love you, Oh, darlin', endlessly
Refrain: Behind the tear there's a hurt, Behind the hurt a broken heart Behind that broken heart there lies a broken dream Behind the dream there's a fool Behind the fool a wasted love You broke my heart and I'm the fool behind the tear Look here, on my cheek, there's a teardrop Oh, not much bigger than a grain of sand Don't turn your head, look close behind the teardrop You'll see the hurt you left inside a lonely man Refrain:
You're the reason I'm living You're the breath that I take You're the stars in my heaven You're the sun when I wake You're the reason I'm living You'll carry me through All of life's little burdens I'd be lost without you. Interlude: A long, long time ago When I was down You picked me up and showed me true love Still could be found You're the reason I do things You're the things that I do You're the reason I'm living I'd be lost without you You're the reason I'm living You'll carry me through All of life's little burdens I'd be lost without you.
I cry myself to sleep each night Wishing I could hold you tight Life seems so empty since you went away The pillow where you lay your head Now holds my lonely tears instead And it keeps right on a-hurting since you're gone Yes, it keeps right on a-hurting every minute of the day Every hour that you're away, I feel so lonely And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on And it keeps right on a-hurting since you're gone They say a man should never cry But when I see you passing by My heart breaks down and cries a million tears You broke my heart and set me free But you forgot your memory And it keeps right on a-hurting since you're gone Yes, it keeps right on a-hurting every minute of the day Every hour that you're away, I feel so lonely And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on And it keeps right on a-hurting since you're gone
I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water To search that old river bed I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water To prove that there's no truth in what our friends have said That when you crossed the bridge the other day Well, you took off my ring and you threw it away I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water To try to find the answer there I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water Though I know it's dark and cold I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water To search for that precious little band of gold It's true it didn't cost much and I know I could buy more But you can't buy a heart in a jewelry store I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water To try to find the answer there To try to find the answer there To try to find the answer there (fade)
Refrain: True love's a blessing True love's a wonderful blessing True love's a blessing Wait and see When you've found the right girl You've found a priceless pearl True love's a blessing Yes-sir-ee. Some girls love for money Some make love a game Some girls use their love As stepping stones to fame There are many kinds of love In this great big world But there's no love like the love Of a true blue girl Refrain: Some girls take their love Too casually, they flirt Some girls use their love To break a heart, to hurt There are many kinds of love To be found, it's true But there's no love like the love I found When I found you Refrain: (repeat twice)
