I was lost without a song without a melody
|
You came into my hotel life
|
You made my room a home
|
Ah now, mama, don't you know what you done
|
|
Ah, you made the sunshine in the city
|
Oh, you warmed my heart
|
You changed an old man filled with pity
|
Back to a child again
|
Ah now, mama, can't you see what you done
|
|
So tell me darlin' if the feeling's wrong
|
Don't waste another day
|
Lord, the saddest thing I've ever known
|
Was to watch it die away
|
Ah now, mama, don't you lie don't you lie
|
|
Oh, how can my giving find the rhythm and the time of you
|
Unless you sing your songs to me
|
The smell of your sweet skin does entangle my dream
|
Oh may I stand here awhile living your smile
|
|
Oh, how could you ever know what you've done
|
You warmed my heart when I was so all alone
|
But all I have to give
|
Are my dreams of coming and going forever
|
Inside the rivers of time you'll find me waiting
|
For you to find peace in your mind
|
So we can love again
|
|
I feel what you feel,
|
If you feel what you feel,
|
And I see what you see,
|
If you see what you see,
|
So it goes on and on
|
On it goes, on and on
|
|
It's my heart and your heart,
|
It's our hearts together,
|
You sing and I'll bring,
|
We'll both love together,
|
And all I know is let it grow
|
All you'll find is peace of mind.
