"Looking Through My Glass"

"Looking Through My Glass"


I looked into my future, what did I see?
Nothing but a lonely face, staring back at me
I looked into my glass of wine and there to my surprise
I saw my dream world fall apart, right before my eyes.

Looking through my glass of cherry wine
Trying hard to get you off my mind
But all I see is love that didn't last
Yes I can see it all, just looking through my glass.

And now the glass is empty, I'm down to my last dime
Just one more drink, that's all I need to ease my troubled mind
So fill it up please Mister, this one's got the last
I've got a million years to spend, just looking through my glass.

Looking through my glass of cherry wine
Trying hard to get you off my mind
But all I see is love that didn't last
Yes I can see it all, just looking through my glass...

"Lord Make Her Want To Stay"

"Lord Make Her Want To Stay"


She's leaving, Lord, she's leaving
And soon I'll know I'm gonna find
She'll take more of me with her
Than she'll leave behind.

Love's gone too far to give up
Won't you please listen when I say
Lord, you help me find her
Help me make her want to stay.

I can't believe
She'll soon be leaving me
She means more
Than just another memory.

I miss her already
And she's just leaving me today
Lord, you help me find her
Help me make her want to stay.

Lord, you help me find her
And you know it was heaven for a while
When I was down, she picked me up
Lord, she taught me how to smile.

She says she'll soon be leaving
and you know I need her more today
Lord you help me find her
Help me make her want to stay.

I can't believe
She'll soon be leaving me
She means more
Than just another memory.

I miss her already
And she's just leaving me today
Lord, you help me find her
Help me make her want to stay...

"Lost In The Feeling"

"Lost In The Feeling"


We step out on the dance floor
The band starts to play
Holding you close I get carried away
Finding that falling is easy to do
Lost in the feeling with you.

Time standing still as I whirl you around
We're dancing without
Even touching the ground
Finding that falling is easy to do
Lost in the feeling with you.

No words are spoken
That don't need to be said
You and the music
Had gone to my head.

But I'll just go on
When the music is through
Lost in the feeling with you
Lost in the feeling with you.

Lost in the feeling with you...

"Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man"

"Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man"


[Conway Twitty:]
Hey, Louisiana woman
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man
[Both:]
We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart
[Conway Twitty:]
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart
[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Conway Twitty:]
See the alligators all a waitin' nearby
Sooner or later, they know I'm gonna try
When she waved from the bank
Don't you know I know
It's a-goodbye fishin' line, see you while I go
With a Louisiana woman waitin' on the other side
The Mississippi River don't look so wide

[Conway Twitty:]
Louisiana woman
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man
[Both:]
We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart
[Conway Twitty:]
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart
[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Loretta Lynn:]
Well, I thought I'd been loved, but I never had
'Til I was wrapped in the arms of a Mississippi man
When he holds me close, it feels almost
Like another hurricane just ripped the coast
If he can't come to me, I'm gonna go to him
That Mississippi River, Lord, I'm gonna swim

[Conway Twitty:]
Hey, Louisiana woman
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man
[Both:]
We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart
[Conway Twitty:]
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart
[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Conway Twitty:]
Well, Mississippi River, Lord, it's one mile wide
And I'm gotta get me to the other side
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man, I'm a-losin' my mind
Gotta have your lovin' one more time
[Conway Twitty:]
I'm gonna jump in the river and here I go
Too bad, alligator, you swim too slow

[Conway Twitty:]
Hey, Louisiana woman
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man
[Both:]
We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart

"Love And Only Love"

"Love And Only Love"


Someone is lying next to me tonight
Wishing I was someone else and I'm wishing she was right
It's not her fault and it's not mine
We did the best we could
But it's love and only love
That makes the loving good.

We lie and say I love you to each other one more time
And all the while we force our smiles to tory to ease our minds
She's just like me; she had someone she'd go back if she could
'Cause it's love and only love that makes the loving good.

I cannot forget someone I left so long ago
Looking for some thrill I guess but what I just don't know
No I threw away the best I had
I never understood
That It's love and only love
That makes the loving good.

It's love and only love
That makes the loving good...

"Love Coming Down"

"Love Coming Down"


I remeber how your eyes used to light up
At the promises I made
But for the first time in my life
I know now how it feels to be afraid.

I don't know what I'd do if you'd go away
This would sure be one lonely old town
For a man so busy going up in the world
He couldn't see love coming down, love coming down.

I remember all the times you told me
Love's all that mattered to you
And looking back now wondering how
I believe I had things more important to do.

I can see how I must have looked to you
Like some fool on a merry-go-round
Another man so busy going up in the world
He couldn't see love coming down, love coming down.

Can't you see how everything I've learned
Wuld just be wasted if you leave me
If you'll just give it one more try
I swear I'll always be here when you need me.

If you can find in your heart to forgive me
I'll try to keep my feet on the ground
Forgive a man so busy going up in the world
He couldn't see love coming down,love coming down.

I need you baby...

"Love Is The Foundation"

"Love Is The Foundation"


I've seen her as she awakens in the morning
She reaches out her hand and without a word
As her fingers softly fall upon my face
She lights the flame of desire and makes me want her.

And love is the foundation we lean on
All you need is love to ease your mind
And does it have to be right to be called love
When she gives me more loving
Than a lifetime of looking could ever find.

And love is the foundation we lean on
All you need is love to ease your mind
And does it have to be right to be called love
When she gives me more loving
Than a lifetime of looking could ever find...

"Love Salvation"

"Love Salvation"


Out of the night you came to rescue me
From my world of misery
I saw the light, I saw your love-light shine
I saw the light the first time I looked in your eyes

You are my love salvation
You are my sweet sensation, woman
You are my love salvation
Into my desperation, woman

Open your arms, I need to feel your touch
Rescue me with your love
Hold me tight, come on and hold me tight
Promise me you will hold me 'til the morning light

You are my love salvation
You are my sweet sensation, woman
You are my love salvation
Into my desperation, woman

You saved me from my sorrow
You saved me from my Hell
You saved me from my trouble
You saved me from myself

You are my love, you are my love salvation
You are my sweet sensation, woman
You are my love salvation
Into my desperation, woman

Love salvation
Love salvation
Love salvation
Love salvation

"Loves Not Where Love Should Be"

"Loves Not Where Love Should Be"


In the past few months all lies have changed
We no longer speak each other's name
We turned around and love was gone
We don't even know what went wrong.

We've been blinded by time
You lived your life and I lived mine
Much too late now we see
Love's not where love should be.

We worked so hard to build a home
I guess we thought that love grew on and on
If we had worked this hard on you and me
Love would be where love supposed to be.

We've been blinded by time
You lived your life and I lived mine
Much too late now we see
Love's not where love should be.

Love's not where love should be...

"Lovin' What Your Lovin' Does To Me"

"Lovin' What Your Lovin' Does To Me"


My heart was at a standstill
Your touch shook it up
You made me see what I've missed
Now I can't get enough.

I fit so right in your world
You set my heart on go
On the coldest day of winter
Lord, our love would melt the snow.

Our love is hotter than the fire that swept Chicago
Deeper than the Gulf of Mexico
Sweeter than the sugarcane way down in Louisiana
Here with you is where I want to be
I'm lovin' what your lovin' does to me.

Your love struck me
Like a bolt out of the blue
The first thing that I knew
I was givin' it all to you.

You make it happen
Whenever I'm with you
The longest day of summer
Couldn't warm me like you do.

Our love is stronger than the winds that hit Biloxi
Taller than the hills of Tennessee
More movin' than the earthquakes that shake up California
Here with you is where I want to be
I'm loving what your lovin' does to me.

Our love is hotter than the fire that swept Chicago
Deeper than the Gulf of Mexico
Sweeter than the sugarcane way down in Louisiana
Here with you is where I want to be
I'm lovin' what your lovin' does to me.

Our love is hotter than the fire that swept Chicago
Deeper than the Gulf of Mexico
Sweeter than the sugarcane way down in Louisiana
Here with you is where I want to be
I'm lovin' what your lovin' does to me...
