All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind from time to time I can never be more than a knock on your door Just a shadow that's gone with the sunshine For you know I'm not free and I never can be And you're bound to get restless in time |

Well listen dear I think it's clear
We need to sit and talk Seems you've got this notion I've been having second thoughts Well I must confess in a way I guess that silly notion's true 'Cause every second you're not here with me I think of you' Every second, every minute, every hour of every day Every second there's a thought of you that comes my way So if you ask that I've had second thoughts I'd have to say Every second, every minute, every hour of every day. Now I propose we drink a toast and turn the lights down low Put our favoritie music on and hold each other close Don't worry dear you'll always be here in my heart to stay Every second, every minute, every hour of every day Every second, every minute, every hour of every day Every second there's a thought of you that comes my way So if you ask that I've had second thoughts I'd guess I have to say Every second, every minute, every hour of every day. Every second, every minute, I love you more and more eatch day |

You come around most every night Looking for my heart Each time i turn out the light I can count on you to start Bringing back sweet memories Of the love we made You never change You're a faithful old flame I know you'll be here right on time To ear me up again You never stay away too long And give me a chance to mend Tears won't drown your fire in me It's even worse when it rains You never stray from a faithful old flame Just when i think you're gone You start the fire And i yearn for your touch That i miss so much Embers of love glow even brighter Than they did Yesterday, they won't go away I've tried my best To put you out But the spark remains It's still the same You're a faithful old flame You never stray You're a faithful old flame |

I got money in my pocket and a guitar in my hand These lonely nights without you are more than i can stand I work like a puppet But it's time to cut the strings Well i hit the ground running And i won't be looking back I'll be like a locomotive headed down a one way track It won't take too long just you wait and see As long as it will lead me back to you Any old stretch of blacktop will do North, south, east or west Been everywhere it seems Uptown rooms and honky tonks don't feel like home to me I'll be stepping out the rhythm while i'm singing a new song And it's knowing where i'm going that will keep me moving on Turn my collar to the wind and put my thumb up in the air Flag a diesal down or catch a bus from anywhere Colorado, california, or even kalamazoo As long as it will lead me back to you Any old stretch of blacktop will do Well i hit the ground running And i won't be looking back I'll be like a locomotive headed down a one way track It won't take too long just you wait and see As long as it will lead me back to you Any old stretch of blacktop will do Alright |

I read a note my grandma wrote back in nineteen twenty-three.
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me. He said, "Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago, Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma so." We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together. Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever. But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead Of her, I found this letter, and this is what it said: If you get there before I do, don't give up on me. I'll meet you when my chores are through; I don't know how long I'll be. But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see. And between now and then, till I see you again, I'll be loving you. Love, me. I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away, In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray. I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years; But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears. If you get there before I do, don't give up on me. I'll meet you when my chores are through, I don't know how long I'll be. But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see. And between now and then, till I see you again, I'll be loving you. Love, me. Between now and then, till I see you again, I'll be loving you. Love, me. |

I hear your favorite music on the jukebox And right away i know that you are here You always pick a time Just when i think my mind is clear you reappear And once again you've got me in your power This time i hope it's not a brief romance 'cause it's too late to run You've got me thinking one slow dance is worth a chance Then that old blue magic still works like a charm As if you never even left these aching arms You put a spell on me i guess i'll always be hypnotized By that blue magic in your eyes Though i should run and hide from this illusion Your smile is so much quicker than my pride There's something up your sleeve That makes my heart believe inside This carpet ride might lift us up and fly us to forever But up 'til now its all been slight of hand I've got to face the fact one look and I'm right back at your command 'cause that old blue magic still works like a charm As if you never even left these aching arms You put a spell on me i guess i'll always be hypnotized By that blue magic in your eyes Yes, you put a spell on me i guess i'll always be hypnotized By that blue magic.. that old blue magic... that blue magic in your eyes |

When i think about you leaving and being here alone It's not the love we knew that hurts me But the love we could have known I'm not sorry that i held you I just wish that i still could Oh it's not that it was so bad It just could've been so good I don't regret one moment that we had together What's killing me is knowing we could have had forever I just wish we loved each other the way i know we could Oh it's not that it was so bad It just could've been so good I don't want to lose the memories of all the nights we shared And i never found a new love that ever could compare I just wish we hadn't left things standing where they stood Girl it's not that it was so bad It just could've been so good Oh it's not that it was so bad It just could've been so good |

You want to know where we go from here
So many roads but none that seem clear Is what we have enough to last a whole life through Who knows baby who knows So you're asking me what do we do Cause time moves so fast and the chances seem so few Is it too much to think that we could have it all Who knows we may never know But if I were you I'd promise to live life for all it's worth Take all that you've been given and leave your mark upon this earth Trust your heart to show you everything you'll ever need And if I were you I'd fall in love with me So hold me close I'll kiss away your fears I won't promise the moon but I promise to be here And what if together it gets better every day Who knows baby who knows But if I were you I'd promise to But if I were you I'd promise to, If I were you I'd fall in love with me |
