Words & music by Dwight Yoakam

When I first came here
|
I was empty, lost and weak
|
When I first came here
|
In your arms I found relief
|
When I first came here
|
I was empty lost and weak
|
When I first came here
|
In your arms I found relief
|
|
When I first came here
|
I was searching for a friend
|
When I first came here
|
It was your heart that took me in
|
When I first came here
|
I was searching for a friend
|
When I first came here
|
It was your heart that took me in.
|
|
Though I wasn't wrong to long for your beauty
|
And my eyes were not blind to trust your smile
|
What they once never showed
|
Were the endless moments alone
|
That you'd leave behind
|
|
No, they once never showed
|
There ceaseless moments alone
|
Are that you'd leave behind
|
|
When I first came here
|
Your lips were where each thought began
|
When I first came here
|
My craving for you knew no end
|
When I first came here
|
Your lips were where each thought began
|
When I first came here
|
My craving for you wouldn't end
|
|
When I first came here
|
Each morning we woke spent and weak
|
When I first came here
|
We seldom used our bed for sleep
|
When I first came here
|
We woke each morning spent and weak
|
When I first came here
|
Our bed was seldom used for sleep
|
|
When I first came here
|
I fell victim to your touch
|
When I first came here
|
I sought and craved its constant clutch
|
When I first came here
|
I fell victim to your touch
|
When I first came here
|
I sought and craved its constant clutch
|
|
When I first came here
|
If my memory serves me right
|
When I first came here
|
You shared each breath I drew all night
|
When I first came here
|
If my memory serves me right
|
When I first came here
|
We shared each breath through every night
