Forever and always my love will be true
I'd wait for a lifetime if you ask me to
You make me so happy, then leave me so blue
But I'd wait forever and always for you

Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
To hear my prayer and make you care, my life I'd offer you
For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
Forever and always to have and to hold

Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
To hear my prayer and make you care my life I'd offer you
For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
Forever and always to have and to hold

Forever and always my love will be true
I'd wait for a lifetime if you ask me to
You make me so happy, then leave me so blue
But I'd wait forever and always for you

Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
To hear my prayer and make you care, my life I'd offer you
For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
Forever and always to have and to hold

Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
To hear my prayer and make you care my life I'd offer you
For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
Forever and always to have and to hold

I love you mostly
'Cause you're so kind and true
Seems there's nothing you wouldn't do
To prove your love for me

I love you mostly
For your sweet tenderness
And the softness of your caress
Brings nothing but happiness

As long as we're together
My life will be complete
I'll love you forever
Well I lay my heart at your feet

I love you mostly
For your sweet tenderness
And the softness of your caress
Brings nothing but happiness

As long as we're together
My life will be complete
I'll love you forever
Well I lay my heart at your feet

I love you mostly
For your sweet tenderness
And the softness of your caress
Brings nothing but happiness

I Want To Be With You Always

I lose my blues, honey, when I'm with you
No one else can do what you do, you're in my heart to stay
When I'm gone, and I'm all alone
I'll be singing this song for you, I want to be with you always

I'd be happy, dearest, if you could only be here
And always be nearer, forever and a day
Then we'd travel far, we'd be some big, shining star
Just you and my guitar, and stay there, sweetheart, for always

I just want to love you baby
You mean so much to me, you don't no how I feel
I'm crazy in my little world

I hope you feel the same, you really want my name
Well, you'll be the one who's to blame, if it works out wrong that day
Cause my love is true, my love is only for you
I'll never be blue, if I can be with you always

I Want To Be With You Always

I lose my blues, honey, when I'm with you
No one else can do what you do, you're in my heart to stay
When I'm gone, and I'm all alone
I'll be singing this song for you, I want to be with you always

I'd be happy, dearest, if you could only be here
And always be nearer, forever and a day
Then we'd travel far, we'd be some big, shining star
Just you and my guitar, and stay there, sweetheart, for always

I just want to love you baby
You mean so much to me, you don't no how I feel

Ten years ago on a cold dark night
There was someone killed 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all agree
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me.
The judge said son what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die
I spoke not a word though it meant my life
For I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife.
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me.
The scaffold's high and eternity near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But sometimes at night when the cold wind blows
In a long black veil she cries o'er my bones.
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me.
Nobody knows but me.
Nobody knows but me...

I was born in Saginaw, Michigan
I grew up in a house on Saginaw Bay
My dad was a poor, hard-working Saginaw fisherman
Too many times he came home with too little pay

I loved a girl in Saginaw, Michigan
The daughter of a wealthy, wealthy man
But he called me that son of a Saginaw fisherman
And not good enough to claim his daughter's hand

Now I'm up here in Alaska looking around for gold
Like a crazy fool I'm digging in this frozen ground so cold
But with each new day I pray I'll strike it rich and then
I'll go back home and claim my love in Saginaw, Michigan

I wrote my love in Saginaw, Michigan
I said honey I'm coming home please wait for me
And you can tell your dad I'm coming back a richer man
I hit the biggest strike in Klondike history

Her dad met me in Saginaw, Michigan
He gave me a great big party with champagne
Then he said son you wise young ambitious man
Will you sell your father-in-law your Klondike claim

Now he's up there in Alaska digging in the cold, cold ground
The greedy fool is looking for the gold I never found
It serves him right and no one here is missing him
Least of all the newlyweds of Saginaw, Michigan

We're the happiest man and wife in Saginaw, Michigan

He's ashamed to show his face in Saginaw, Michigan

You want this, you want that
A new dress, a new hat
You want everything you see
That money would buy, you get it or die
You want everything but me

And baby, someday if you don't change your ways
All alone you will be
'Cause you know that I will be saying goodbye
You want everything but me

When you buy a fur coat
You know [Incomprehensible]
And then you go out on a spree
Then I get all the bills for you have all the thrills
You want everything but me

And baby, someday if you don't change your ways
All alone you will be
'Cause you know that I will be saying goodbye
