In a bar in Toledo across from the depot
On a bar stool she took off her ring I thought I'd get closer so I walked on over I sat down and asked her name When the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no quitter But I finally quit livin' on dreams I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after I'm after what-ever the other life brings In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him I thought how he looked out of place He came to the woman who sat there beside me Had a strange look on his face The big hands were calloused he looked like a mountain For a minute I thought I was dead But he started shaking his big heart was breaking He turned to the woman and said You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille With four hungry children and a crop in the field I've had some bad times lived through some sad times But this time your hurting won't heal You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille After he left us I ordered more whisky I thought how she'd made him look small From the lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room We walked without talking at all She was a beauty but when she came to me She must have thought I'd lost my mind I couldn't hold her 'cos the words that he told her Kept coming back time after time You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille .... |

While she lays sleeping, I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes all the nights can be so long And it's good when I finally make it home, all alone While she lays dreaming, I try to get undressed without the light And quietly she says how was your night? And I come to her and say, it was all right, and I hold her tight And she believes in me, I'll never know just what she sees in me I told her someday if she was my girl, I could change the world With my little songs, I was wrong But she has faith in me, and so I go on trying faithfully And who knows maybe on some special night, if my song is right I will find a way, find a way... While she lays waiting, I stumble to the kitchen for a bite Then I see my old guitar in the night Just waiting for me like a secret friend, and there's no end While she lays crying, I fumble with a melody or two And I'm torn between the things that I should do And she says to wake her up when I am through, God her love is true... And she believes in me, I'll never know just what she sees in me I told her someday if she was my girl, I could change the world With my little songs, I was wrong But she has faith in me, and so I go on trying faithfully And who knows maybe on some special night, if my song is right I will find a way, while she waits... while she waits for me for me! |

All my life was a paper once plain, pure and white
Till you moved with your pen changing moods now and then Till the balance was right Then you added some music, every note was in place And anybody could see all the changes in me by the look on my face And you decorated my life, created a world where dreams are a part And you decorated my life by painting your love all over my heart You decorated my life Like a rhyme with no reason in an unfinished song There was no harmony life meant nothin' to me, until you came along And you brought out the colors, what a gentle surprise Now I'm able to see all the things life can be shining soft in your eyes And you decorated my life, created a world where dreams are a part And you decorated my life by painting your love all over my heart You decorated my life |

You've painted up your lips
And rolled and curled your tinted hair Ruby are you contemplating Going out somewhere The shadow on the wall Tells me the sun is going down Oh Ruby Don't take your love to town It wasn't me That started that crazy Asian war But I was proud to go And do my patriotic chore And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be Oh, Ruby I still need some company It's hard to love a man Whose legs are bent and paralyzed That my wants and needs of a woman of your age Ruby, I realized Oh Ruby Don't take your love to town She's leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door The way I know I've heard it Some 100 times before And if I could move I'd get my gun And put her in the ground Oh Ruby Don't take your love to town Oh Ruby for God's sake turn around |

Oh, my love, my darling
I hunger for your touch Alone, lonely time. And time goes by, so slowly And time can do so much Are you still mine? I need your love I need your love God speed your love to me. Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea To the open arms of the sea Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me I'll be coming home, wait for me. Oh, my love, my darling I hunger, for your touch Alone, lonely time And time goes by, so slowly And time can do so much Are you still mine? I need your love Oh, oh, I need your love God speed your love to me... |

If I should stay
I would only be in your way So, I'll go but I know I'll think of you Each step of the way And I will always love you. And I will always love you Bittersweet memories, That is all I am taking with me So goodbye, please don't you cry 'Cause we both know I'm not what you need And I will always love you. And I will always love you I hope life treats you kind And I hope you have all you've dreamed of And I wish you joy and happiness But above all, I wish you love And I will always love you. And I will always love you Bittersweet memories, That is all I am taking with me So goodbye, please don't you cry 'Cause we both know I'm not what you need And I will always love you. And I will always love you... |

(Frank J. Myers/Gary Baker)
I see the questions in your eyes I know what's weighing on your mind You can be sure I know my heart And I'll stand beside you through the years You'll only cry those happy tears. And though I will make mistakes I'll never break your heart And I swear, by the moon and the stars in the sky I'll be there (I'll be there.) I swear, like a shadow that's by your side I'll be there (I'll be there) For better or worse, till death do us part I'll love you with every beat of my heart, and I swear I'll give you every thing I can I'll build your dreams with these two hands We'll hang some memories on the walls And when there's silver in your hair You won't have to ask if I still care. 'Cause as the time turns the page My love won't age at all And I swear, by the moon and the stars in the sky I'll be there I swear, like a shadow that's by your side I'll be there For better or worse, till death do us part I'll love you with every beat of my heart. and I swear For better or worse, till death do us part I'll love you with every beat of my hear, and I swear I swear, like a shadow that's by your side I'll be there For better or worse, till death do us part I'll love you with every beat of my heart, and I swear I swear, like a shadow that's by your side I'll be there For better or worse, till death do us part I'll love you with every beat of my heart, and I swear...... |

I know it's late
I know you're weary I know your plans don't include me Still here we are Both of us lonely Longing for shelter from all that we see Why should we worry? No one will care, girl Look at the stars now, so far away We've got tonight Who needs tomorrow? We've got tonight, babe, why don't you stay? Deep in my soul I've been so lonely All of my hopes now so fading away I've longed for love Like everyone else does I know I'll keep searching after today So there it is, girl We've got it all now And here we are, babe What do you say? We've got tonight Who needs tomorrow? We've got tonight, babe, why don't we stay? I know it's late and I know you're weary I know your plans don't include me Still here we are Both of us lonely , both of us lonely We've got tonight Who needs tomorrow? Let's make it last Let's find a way Turn out the light, come take my hand now We've got tonight, babe, why don't we stay? We've got tonight, babe, why don't we stay? |
