I remember when we were children playing in the fields,
|
I loved you truely even then and you know I always will.
|
Climbin' over creek banks down by the cotton gin.
|
Chasin' papa's billy goat tearin' my petticoat you cried when I got a whippin'.
|
You cried when my puppy died just because I cried.
|
And I've heard you laugh when in my heart
|
I knew you wanted to cry and when the truth it might have hurt me
|
I've heard you tell a lie and that is why I love you like I do.
|
|
God knows I love you. God knows I do
|
|
Now I carry sweet and gentle your first baby child.
|
I live within the bright anticipation of your smile.
|
Even in the bad times it seems like you never gave in.
|
Standin' behind me and fightin' for me blindly and cryin' when I get a whippin'.
|
You cried when my puppy died just because I cried.
|
And I've heard you laugh when in my heart I knew you wanted to cry.
|
And when the truth might have hurt me I've heard you tell a lie and that is why I love you like I do
|
|
God knows I love you. God knows I do
|
