"I Come Here To Let Her Memory Wander Through My Mind"

"I Come Here To Let Her Memory Wander Through My Mind"


I can't hold back these teardrops no matter how I try
I can't say that I'm not hurtin' that would be a lie
I just lost the sweetest love a man could ever find
I come here to let her mem'ry wander through my mind

The more I drink the more I think I can get over her
But the more I think the more I drink I want more of her
So if she ever wants to find me I'm here most all the time
I come here to let her mem'ry wander through my mind

The more I drink the more I think I can get over her...
I come here to let her mem'ry wander through my mind

"I Couldn't See You Leavin'"

"I Couldn't See You Leavin'"


Lying all alone in this midnight blue
With nothing but these memories of you
Staring at these walls that are closing in
Wondering if you're ever coming back again.

Now I'm just a prisoner in this big old bed
Living with the things that I should've said
Why is it always after someone's gone
That you begin to see where you went wrong.

I couldn't see you leaving, but I can see you're gone
That note you left on my pillow said I was on my own
I never heard you crying, 'cause I was seldom home
I couldn't see you leaving, but I can see you're gone.

I just keep wondering where you are tonight
And if someone else is holding you tight
It took you walking out the door to see
That I'm really nothing when you're not with me.

I did a good job of fooling myself
Thinking that you're love would stay on the shelf
But how could anybody be so blind
To have to wake up alone and find.

I couldn't see you leaving, but I can see you're gone
That note you left on my pillow said I was on my own
I never heard you crying, 'cause I was seldom home
I couldn't see you leaving, but I can see you're gone.

I couldn't see you leaving, but I can see you're gone...

"I Did The Best I Could"

"I Did The Best I Could"


(And I did the best I could with what I had)

When I first met you I promised you the world
And it was all because you were my favorite girl
Pretty things like diamond rings and all the things you never had
But I did the best I could with what I had.

I know you won't need a mansion on the hill
A big fine car a schauffer at the wheel
But time passed on and things went wrong
And all you ever got was sad
But I did the best I could with what I had.

And all I had was all the love in the world for one girl
And the promise to try hard someway to get ahead
But the promises I made I've broken and betrayed
But I did the best I could with what I had.
Yes, I did the best I could with what I had...

"I Didn't Lose Her"

"I Didn't Lose Her"


You may find her in a tavern in the cheap part of town
With bright lights and music and a crowd gathered round
It may be too late now to tell her but I love her more today
But I didn't lose her, I threw her away.

She stood by me, looked for the good in me
When she knew I was wrong
I would love her just enough to keep her hanging on
She stayed much longer than she should
Then she walked out one day
But I didn't lose her, I threw her away.

She only wanted me to love her and to tell her so each day
Now, she's somewhere in a tavern wasting her life away
But don't be too fast to condemn her for what she might do or say
For I didn't lose her, I threw her away...

"I Don't Believe I'll Fall In Love Today"

"I Don't Believe I'll Fall In Love Today"


I don't believe I'll fall in love today
Old memories of you stand in the way
I just can't make my heart find someone new
It's always much too busy loving you

So I don't believe I'll fall in love today
Cause if I did I'm sure I wouldn't stay
You'd come between us like you always do
Somehow she'd never measure up to you

Each night I pray I'll wake at dawn and find
Another in my heart and on my mind
Then I'll awake and hear my poor heart say
I don't believe I'll fall in love today
[ fiddle - steel ]
Each night I pray I'll wake at dawn and find...

"I Don't Feel Like Lovin' You"

"I Don't Feel Like Lovin' You"


Morning will tell you what I couldn't say
Didn't really want to leave or didn't really want to stay
Yes, it seems so unkind but what else can I do
No matter how I try just don't feel like loving you.

Walking beside me you're walking alone
Never moving quite together 'cause I'm moving on my own
Tryin' hard to believe but what else can I do
No matter how I try just don't feel like lovin' you.

Maybe I'll be sorry from the first night I'm alone
And I pray that I'll awaken by your side
But I can't believe in staying if I never tried to go
Yes, I won't believe in love until I try.

One night in one town or another town or two
Got no time for conversation barely time for passin' through
With no woman at heart comes no sorrow tonight
Baby, nothing where I go, but there's nothing left behind.

Maybe I'll be sorry from the first night I'm alone
And I pray that I'll awaken by your side
But I can't believe in staying if I never tried to go
Yes, I won't believe in love until I try...

"I Don't Know A Thing About Love"

"I Don't Know A Thing About Love"


I talk to the man in the moon.
I said, "Sir, is she coming back soon?"
He smiled and he stated,
"Son, I'm over-rated,
I've had to much credit in those old love tunes.
I don't know a thing about love,
I just kind of hang here above.
I just watch from the sky,
Will love grow or will it die?
I don't know a thing about love."

Then I asked him "Where is she tonight?
You must see all things with your light."
He said, "Son, I could tell you things that might kill you,
But I don't get involved in what's wrong or right.
I don't know a thing about love,
I just kind of hang here above.
I just watch from the sky,
Will love grow or will it die?
I don't know a thing about love."

He said, "I can move oceans when I take the notion.
Or make mountains tremble and rivers run dry.
But in all matters human, remember there's someone
In charge of those things way above you and I.
I don't know a thing about love,
I just kind of hang here above.
I just watch from the sky,
Will love grow or will it die?
I don't know a thing about love.
I don't know a thing about love."

"I Don't Love You"

"I Don't Love You"


Pray before I close my eyes
Please don't be in my dreams again tonight
I don't love you.
There's no place in your life for me
So just get out of mine and let me be
I don't love you.

I don't stare at your photograph,
Wishing I could get you back
I don't need you at all
I swear it's true
I don't love you.

Think I'll go out on the town
Find someone to wrap my arms around
I don't love you.
I won't think twice when she's kissing me,
I won't be haunted by your memories
'Cause, I don't love you.

I don't think of the night you left
How you left me with no regrets
You just turned to me so calm and cool
And said, "I don't love you."

Ooo, I don't love you is what I say,
When the pain is too much to take
Over and over till I believe, it's true,
I don't love you.

I don't love you.
I don't love you.
I don't love you...

"I Don't Mind"

"I Don't Mind"


It used to break my heart each time you cheated,
I tried to leave you, the Lord knows how I've tried
But I stayed here no matter how I'm treated
And all it really cost me was my pride.

But I don't mind,
I don't mind
I did for a time
But I don't mind.

You and I have a perfect understanding
You come and you go as you please
And I never get too angry or demanding
It's hard to get mad on your knees.

But I don't mind,
Baby, I don't mind
I did for a time
But I don't mind.

Once I was strong as a mountain,
I stood tall like a giant Oak tree
Now my blood runs thin like water in a fountain
You took all the man outta me.

But I don't mind,
Baby, I don't mind
I did for a time
But I don't mind
