Missing your loving touchAnd the arms that mean so much,Loving you constantlyHas been the downfall of me.Missing you day and nightMy empty arms don't seem rightMy life is full of miseryYes, you're the downfall of meInterlude: If I see you once again That spark of love might begin I can't stand too much pain Misery drives me insaneRefrain:(instrumental)Refrain:
You're the reason I'm in loveYou're my shining star aboveYou're my every dream come trueThat's why I love you like I doAdam shared his love with EveSome may doubt but I believeI would give my life for youThat's why I love you like I do(instrumental)Man wasn't meant to be aloneHe needs a girl to call his ownThe only girl for me is youThat's why I love you like I doYou're the reason I'm in loveYou're my shining star aboveYou're my every dream come trueThat's why I love you like I do
My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine Softer than a sighMy love is deeper than the deepest ocean Wider than the skyMy love is brighter than the brightest star That shines every night aboveAnd there is nothing in this world that could ever change my love.Something happened to my heart the day that I met youSomething that I never felt beforeYou are always on my mind, no matter what I doAnd every day it seems I want you moreRefrain:Once I thought that love was meant for anyone else but meOnce I thought you'd never come my wayNow it only goes to show how wrong we all can beFor now I have to tell you every dayRefrain:
Ramblin' Rose, Ramblin' Rose,Why you ramble no one knows.Wild and wind-blown, that's how you've grownWho can cling to a ramblin' rose?Ramble on, ramble on,When your rambling days are goneWho will love you with a love trueWhen your rambling days are gone?(instrumental stanza)Ramblin' Rose, Ramblin' Rose,Why I want you heaven knowsThough I love you with a love trueWho can cling to a ramblin' rose?
Higher than the highest mountainDeeper than the deepest seaThat's how I will love youOh, darlin', endlesslySofter than the gentle breezesStronger than the wild oak treeThat's how I will hold youOh, darlin', endlesslyInterlude: 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 surroundFaithful as a moment's sunriseSafe as a love can beThat's how I will love you,Oh, darlin', endlessly(instrumental: first two lines of interlude)Oh, my love, you're all I pray forYou were made for these arms to surroundFaithful as a moment's sunriseSafe as a love can beThat'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 tearLook here, on my cheek, there's a teardropOh, not much bigger than a grain of sandDon't turn your head, look close behind the teardropYou'll see the hurt you left inside a lonely manRefrain:
You're the reason I'm living You're the breath that I takeYou're the stars in my heaven You're the sun when I wakeYou're the reason I'm living You'll carry me throughAll 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 foundYou're the reason I do things You're the things that I doYou're the reason I'm living I'd be lost without youYou're the reason I'm living You'll carry me throughAll of life's little burdens I'd be lost without you.
I cry myself to sleep each nightWishing I could hold you tight Life seems so empty since you went awayThe pillow where you lay your headNow 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 goneThey say a man should never cry But when I see you passing by My heart breaks down and cries a million tearsYou broke my heart and set me freeBut 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 bedI'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 awayI'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water To try to find the answer thereI'm going down twenty feet into that muddy, muddy water Though I know it's dark and coldI'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 storeI'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 gameSome girls use their love As stepping stones to fameThere are many kinds of love In this great big worldBut there's no love like the love Of a true blue girlRefrain:Some girls take their love Too casually, they flirtSome girls use their love To break a heart, to hurtThere are many kinds of love To be found, it's trueBut there's no love like the love I found When I found youRefrain: (repeat twice)
