I WALK ALONE

(Herbert W. Wilson - Sammy Cahn - Jule Styne) « © '43 Adams Vee & Abbott Music, BMI / Cahn Music, ASCAP / Morley Music, ASCAP »
I walk alone where once we wandered
It seems so strange since that you are gone
Till you return I'll stay the same dear
I'll still be true and walk alone

The flame of love is brightly burning
You know that I'm your very own
And till you ruturn I'll stay the same dear
And I'll still be true and I walk alone
[ organ ] The flame of love is brightly burning...

TODAY I STARTED LOVING YOU AGAIN

(Merle Haggard - Bonnie Owens) « © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Today I started loving you again
I'm right back where I've really always been
I got over you just long enough to let my heartaches mend
And then today I started loving you again

What a fool I was to think I could get by
With only these few million tears I've cried
I should have known the worst was yet to come
And that crying time for me had just begun

Cause today I started loving you...
And then today I started loving you again

I CAN'T HELP IT (IF I'M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU)

(Hank Williams) « © '51 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Today I passed you on the street and my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side and he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I've got that old time feeling
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

THEY'LL NEVER TAKE HER LOVE FROM ME

(Leon Payne) « © '50 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
If today the sun should set on all my hopes and cares
There is one who's smiling face the Gods would see
Cause she'll walk along beside me up those golden stairs
Oh they'll never never take her love from me

I thought I'd make her happy if I'd step aside
But I knew her love would never set me free
And even on the morning she became another's bride
I said they'd never never take her love from me
[ guitar ] I'm so thankful for each golden hour of happiness
That we shared together in the used to be
Though another's arms may hold her now in fond embrace
I said they'd never never take her love from me

I thought I'd make her happy...

BEGGING TO YOU

(Marty Robbins) « © '63 Mariposa Music, BMI / Unichappell Music, BMI »
I left you this morning couldn't take it anymore
You laughed and you dared me to walk out the door
You said that I'd come back you knew what I'd do
And you know you were right cause I'm back here tonight begging to you

I won't disappoint you I'm begging to stay
But that's what you wanted to hear anyway
It must make you happy to make me so blue
What a pityful sight I must be tonight begging to you

You don't want my loving but you let me stay around
I guess just to walk on so you won't touch the ground
To you it don't matter what you cause me to do
As long as you keep me begging to you

SHE THINKS I STILL CARE

(Dickey Lee - Steve Duffy) « © '62 Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI / Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care

But if she's happy thinking I still miss her
Then let that silly notion bring her cheer
How could she ever be so foolish
Oh where could she get such an idea

Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem'ry of her lingers everywhere
Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care

Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care

LAST LETTER

(Rex Griffin) « © '39 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend
What have I done that has made you so distant and cold
Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again
Will you be happy when you are withered and old

I cannot offer you diamonds and mansions so fine
I cannot offer you clothes your young body crave
But if you'll say that you long to forever be mine
Think of the heartaches the tears and the sorrows you'll save

While I am writing this letter I think of the past
And of the promises that you are breaking so free
But to this cruel world I'll soon say my farewell at last
I will be gone when you'll read this last letter from me

When you are lonely and tired of another man's gold
When you are lonely remember this letter my own
But don't try to answer though I've suffered anguish untold
If you don't love me I just wish you would leave me alone

LILLY OF THE VALLEY

(Traditional) « © '49 Writer Share, PD »
I grew up in Alabama in a valley I called home
And I learned to love sweet Lilly from the start
But I had to do my duty yes I had to do my part
But the thought of leaving Lilly breaks my heart

If this war could just be over and I could go back home
If I could hold and kiss her once again
Then if I should die tomorrow after loving her tonight
Then I would not feel my life had been in vain

Cause she's my Lilly of the valley
And I want her for my wife
She's my Lilly of the valley
I guess I've loved Lilly almost all my life all my life

I FEEL ANOTHER HEARTBREAK COMING ON

(Marty Robbins) « © '68 Mariposa Music, BMI / Unichappell Music, BMI »
I was doing fine till you showed up this morning
Then I got that feeling that I've thought was gone
You were just too much to take without a warning
Oh I feel another heartbreak coming on

I had taught myself to get along without you
It took weeks to make things right that you made wrong
And just like that you shattered all I'm worth for
Oh I feel another heartbreak coming on

I didn't have enough time to get over
Just from dawn till dark and dark till dawn
I was doing fine till you showed up this morning
Oh I feel another heartbreak coming on

I didn't have enough time to get over...

WINDOWS HAVE PAINS

(Wes Buchanan) « © '68 Mariposa Music, BMI »
It's raining and my windows are crying
You're out somewhere and I sit here dying
Only your mem'ries remain
Even windows have pains cause they cry when it rains

Keep hoping my heart says keep hoping
Your future won't always be the same
Oh but the teardrops that fall on my windows
Keep saying you're hoping in vain

I don't think I can take it much longer
The will to live isn't getting any stronger
And only your mem'ries remain
Even windows have pains cause they cry when it rains
[ guitar ] Keep hoping my heart says keep hoping...

LET ME LIVE IN YOUR WORLD

(Karen Russell) « © '68 Mariposa Music, BMI »
Let me live in your world for a day
Even though I know my heart will fail
A lonely soul in search of happiness
Has found the world of heaven in your kiss

I knew someday someway I'd find a thrill
But finding love there too doesn't seem real
I know it's wrong and you won't let me stay
But let me live in your world for a day

And that day I know I found the way
Of living in my world so far away
Love me now and then send me away
But let me live in your world for a day
