Would you want the world to end not lovin' me
All the angry words we'd spoken to each other
Make me feel our love's not what it's meant to be
Before you go to sleep tonight think it over
Would you want the world to end not lovin' me
Could you hold me in your arms and feel so right
If you knew we'd never see a morning light
After all the love you've given me so free
Would you want the world to end not lovin' me
[ instrumental ]
I get to hurt we've caused each other in the past
And hold me like tonight would be our last
Or if the morning should start eternity
Would you want the world to end not lovin' me
Would you want the world to end not lovin' me

Last night I met you for the first time
And it seemed to me your love was real
Now I realize that you belong to someone
And it's not right to feel the way I do
But it's so sweet stolen wine
How I wish you could be mine
I'd been hurt time after time
I love you sweet stolen wine
[ instrumental ]
It was wrong to tell you that you love me
When you knew you could never turn out right
But to believe you was so foolish of me
Yes that we were both victims of the night
But it's so sweet stolen wine...
I love you sweet stolen wine

What would you say if I ask you if you take me back again
Anger runs wild like a wildfire along to fury by the wind
And anger controlled us it blinded our eyes we couldn't see
What was to be
And now you cry a lot I sit around and sigh a lot
Since we've said goodbye
A lot of things have changed for you and me
We've lost that happy feeling
That we shared when times were good and love was new
I live my life in loneliness
For my heart still remembers loving you
And talking to walls just ain't my idea of passing away the time
For learning to live with regrets that keep on tearing at my mind
If one tiny spark burns the light in the dark
Don't let it die oh don't let it die
And search your heart a lot dream of a brand new start a lot
Since we've been apart
A lot of things have changed for you and me
Oh don't let it die no don't let it die

Tonight I'm going out and burn some bridges
But only on the road that leads to you
Find a bar and drown a million mem'ries
What else is there left for me to do
Oh this time I won't give in and let you put me through
Another day for you to play with a heart that worships you
Cause tonight I'm going out and burn some bridges
But only on the road that leads to you
[ fiddle ]
Tonight I'm going out and burn some bridges
Across that crazy river of regret
Find someone who thinks a little of me
And maybe somehow then I can forget
Oh this time I won't give in and let you put me through...

I look up and there you stand before me
Looking so surprised at what you see
Did you really think I'd be the same without you
And stay the way that you remember me
I had reasons for resisting all temptation
And the reason's standing right before me now
And I hope you'll take into consideration
That I'm getting by the best way I know how
All the empty bottles on the tables
And I seldom even shave or comb my hair
No I didn't drink so much that I'm not able
It's just that I'm not going anywhere
Seeing me like this I hope you won't feel guilty
And don't blame yourself for what I'm doing now
I'm just right back where I was before you met me
And I'm getting by the best way I know how
And I'm getting by the best way I know how

I've been down in the valley and on the highest hill
But my heart knows I miss you and that I love you still
I've searched for happiness but all that I found
Is that your memory sure gets around
Your memory sure gets around
My heart can't seem to lay this feeling down
And I can't break these chains that still have me bound
Cause your memory sure gets around
[ instrumental ]
I've got many miles before me and many miles behind
But no matter where I run to I can't get you off my mind
And I seem to hear your voice in every little sound
Cause your memory sure gets around
Your memory sure gets around...
Cause your memory sure gets around

If you knew what I've found you'd understand why I'm leaving
So I'll tell you that I'll go she gives me love that I've been needing
We never had love the kind we both we'd deserve
Flowers never did grow like the kind I found with her
I've been walking in Eve's garden so in love in Eve's garden
And watching love grow like I've never known
I've been walking in Eve's garden finding love in Eve's garden
Deep in love that has grown like I've never known
I'll be thinking when I'll go of the dreams that we shared
So let's try to remember the good things we had
And the tears that may fall let them water your garden
When the right one comes along just like me won't be sorry
I've been walking in Eve's garden so in love in Eve's garden...

Words put down on paper just don't seem to say
All the things I'm tryin' to say to you
Why is it that I'm writing the meaning slips away
And the lines just don't say what I want them to
I've torn up letter after letter till the basket overflows
And still can't seem to find the simple way
To tell you that I need you want you and miss you
And wish that you were here with me today
[ instrumental ]
So I'll just say I love you with all my lonely heart
And wish today that I could be with you
So until we're together I'll think of you each day
And save all my love just for you
I've torn up letter after letter till the basket overflows...
And wish that you were here with me today

Add one more day to the life we planned together
Say a prayer for the storms we had to wither
Gently hold my hand a bit tighter
And make this burden of love a little lighter
Angels speak those words that make my life heaven
Make the roaring sound of loneliness a bit quitter
Darling hold me close and conquer my doubt for mind
Make this burden of love a little lighter
[ instrumental ]
Lay by my side hold me to your breast and whisper
Make the thoughts of losing you quickly disappear
In our world make the sunshine so much brighter
And make this burden of love a little lighter
Angels speak those words that make my life heaven...
Make this burden of love a little lighter
