I rise I fall with each little breath you take
You cry I cry cause I feel the same heartache
And when you're smiling baby I'm smiling too
Since I'm that much a part of you
Your lips are my lips my heart is your heart
Never let us be further than just a breath apart
Sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss
Soften my dreams with your sigh
And after you've loved me for a million years
Then if it don't work out then if it don't work out
Then you can tell me goodbye
I ain't a gonna need this house no longer ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges nor to mingle the window panes
I ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm gettin' ready to meet the saints
This ole house is a gettin' shaky this ole house is a gettin' old
This ole house stands in the rain this ole house stands in the cold
Oh my knees are gettin' chilly but I feel no fear or pain
Cause I can see an angel peekin' through a broken window pane
I ain't a gonna need this house no longer...
This ole house is afraid of thunder this ole house is afraid of storms
This ole house just groans and trembles when the night come flings his arms
This ole house is a gettin' feeble this ole house is a needin' paint
Just like me it's tuckered out but I'm gonna get ready to meet the saints
I'm sufferin' from a heartache and I don't know what to do
And I just can't keep from cryin' each time I think of you
Oh I guess I must be crazy to love you like I do
And I'm sufferin' from a heartache cause by you
I know I should forget you but it's hard to make the change
Cause mem'ries keep on coming back when someone speaks your name
You left me for the glamour of the bright lights of the town
Now I'm sufferin' from a heartache since love's turned me down
Your lips keep saying that you care
But your heart just isn't there
And your eyes reveal the lies your lips have told
No use pretending nothing's wrong
Guess I've known it all along
I'm slowly losing you and all that I can do
Days may not be fair always that's when I'll be there always
Not for just an hour not for just a day
Not for just a year but always
[ horn ]
Always always oh always
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start
Why can't I free your debtful mind and melt your cold cold heart
You'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry
You know you need and want my love yet you're afraid to try
Why do you run and hide from life to try it just ain't smart
Why can't I free your debtful mind and melt your cold cold heart
