Conway Twitty

© Twitty Bird Music, BMI

Hello darlin' nice to see you it's been a long time
You're just as lovely as you used to be
How's your new love are you happy hope you're doin' fine
Just to know it means so much to me

What's that darlin' how'm I doin' guess I'm doin' all right
Except I can't sleep and I cry all night till dawn
What I'm trying to say is I love you and I miss you
And I'm so sorry that I did you wrong

Look up darlin' let me kiss you just for old time sake
Let me hold you in my arms one more time
Thank you darlin' may God bless you and may each step you take
Bring you closer to the things you seek to find

Goodbye darlin' gotta go now gotta try to find a way
To lose these mem'ries of a love so warm and true
And if you should ever find it in your heart to forgive me
Come back darlin' I'll be waiting for you

I Wonder What She'll Think About Me Leaving

Merle Haggard

© Blue Book Music, BMI

I wonder what she'll think about me leaving
I wonder if she'll even know I'm gone

I wonder what she'll think about my leaving
Wish I could be there hidden if she cries
Cause leaving really won't be worth my trouble
If I can't see the teardrops fill her eyes

Wish I could be there standing by her window
When she finds the note about me being gone
I'm almost sure her coldness never changes
But still I'd like to know it if I'm wrong

I wonder what she'll think about me leaving
I'd like to see her standing all alone
If she hurts at all I'd like to know it happened
I wonder if she'll even know I'm gone
I wonder if she'll notice that I'm gone

Fifteen Years Ago

Raymond Smith

© Hello Darlin' Music, SESAC

I saw a man today who said he talked to you
Not so long ago I think a month or two
As my mind raced back in time I prayed oh Lord don't let it show
He thinks I forgot you fifteen years ago

Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
Why did he have to mention your name
I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
Takes a mighty strong love to keep a man thinkin' of
A girl he hasn't seen since fifteen years ago
[ steel ]
I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
Promised her my love through all eternity
I've tried hard to make her happy and so far she doesn't know
I can't shake this thing of fifteen years ago

Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
Why did he have to mention your name
I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
Takes a mighty long time to get a real love off your mind
I know I've tried since fifteen years ago

Darling You Know I Wouldn't Lie

Red Lane - Wayne Kemp

© Tree Pub, BMI

Here I am late again for the last time
And like I promised I just told her goodbye
Please believe me for this time it's really over
And darling you know I wouldn't lie

Didn't I come and tell you about her
How temptation lured she and I
Now I know it was only fascination
And darling you know I wouldn't lie

I had to led her down easy as slow as I could
After all she's got feelings too
But it took a little longer than I thought it would
But this time she knows we're really through

She wanted to hold me forever
And this lipstick shows her final try
And these tears on my shoulders are provin' that she failed
And darling you know I wouldn't lie

That's When She Started To Stop Loving You

Wayne Kemp

© Tree Pub, BMI

Does she seem a little cold when you love her
Does she turn away when you hold her tight
Just search your soul and you will discover
How you hurt her night after night

And when was the first time she begged you to love her
But you turned away and acted like a fool
And when was the first time she laid there and cried
Well that's when she started to stop loving you
[ steel ]
Do you wonder why she's turning to another
And if you love her you'd better tell her so
Cause she's finding out that anyone will love her
And it won't be long till you'll have to let her go

And when was the first time she begged you to love her...

To See My Angel Cry

Conway Twitty - L.E. White - Charles Haney

© Twitty Bird Music, BMI

See her there see her cryin' she thinks she loves him so
She don't know how much it hurts me to hear her beg him not to go
If she were mine again I'd never let the tears fill her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me to see an angel cry

Once she built her world around me but like a fool I tore it down
And she begged me not to leave her just the way she's doin' now
Now she's beggin' to another with that same hurt in her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me to see an angel cry

I didn't know how much I loved her till she turned and walked away
I didn't know how much I hurt her till I saw her here this way
If she were mine I'd hold her forever and dry the tears from her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me to see my angel cry
She don't know how much it hurts me to see my angel cry

I Can't See Me Without You

Conway Twitty

© Twitty Bird Music, BMI

I can't see you in my arms anymore
And I can't see me without you

Is it day is it night am I losin' my sight
Is it over or we're really through
I can't see you in my arms anymore
And I can't see me without you

I can't see me without you to lean on
And I can't see you leavin' or gone
I could never see anything you wanted me to
And I can't see me without you

I see the house you once called your own
And I see the door you walked through
I see the road you're leavin' me on
But I can't see me without you

I can't see me without you to lean on...

Next In Line

Wayne Kemp - Curtis Wayne

© Tree Pub, BMI

See her there at the table watch her tare at the label
From the bottle that she's just drank dry
In her mind there's a burnin' it took a long time but she's learnin'
And just look at the teardrops she's cried

Everybody knows I love her but her mind is on another
And just look what he's done to her pride
And if she should change her mind give up the music and the wine
I'll be standing by to be the next in line

I know her favorite song so well and she's happy I can tell
Just as long as she can hear the jukebox play
So I'll keep playin' it loud I'll spend ever dime I have
To keep her happy in my own kind of way

Everybody knows I love her but her mind is on another...

How Much More Can She Stand

Harry Compton

© Brothers Two Music, ASCAP

There's a devil in my body that I just can't satisfy
Other women haunt me even though I love my wife
It's because I really love her I try to save her heart with lies
But I know she knows I can see it in her eyes

I tried to stay at home love only her play with the kids and watch TV
But then my mind becomes unsure about the kind of love I need
My reasons for cheating they're as good as lies can be
How much more can she stand and still stand by me
[ steel ]
It's so hard for me to call her I can hardly dial the phone
I did wrong again last night now I just want to go back home
She knows that I lied Lord she'll cry where I can see
How much more can she stand and still stand by me
How much more can she stand and still stand by me

The Image Of Me

Wayne Kemp

© Tree Pub, BMI

Yes I know she's the life of the party
And without her things here would die
Oh but don't be fooled by her laughter
She has her sad times she knows how to cry

She drinks and she talks just a little too loud
And with her pride gone she tags along with any old crowd
Yes I know I'm to blame and I feel so ashamed
That I made her the image of me
[ guitar - steel ]
I met her in a little country town
She was simple and old fashion in some way
But she loved me till I dragged her down
Then she just gave up and drifted away

She drinks and she talks just a little too loud...

I Love You More Today

L.E. White

© Stringer Pub, BMI

I want you more than anything in the world
You mean more to me than any other girl
Now he's with you and things you do with him
We've done them for so long
I love you more today than he can from now on

I've kissed your tears away when you were sad
Held you close felt your warm love when you were glad
So no matter how much love he has for you or how long
I love you more today than he can from now on

We've already done the things he plans to do
So don't be surprised if late at night I'm in your dreams with you
And if someday his love for you goes wrong
I love you more today than he can from now on
I love you more today than he can from now on
