(Lost Our Love) On Our Last Date lyrics - Conway Twitty
It's over, our love affair,
Too late now I find I care
Her sweet love, never more I'll share
She's gone, I'm alone,
I was wrong, should have known
Took her home after our last date.
I searched for a simply way
To tell her what I had to say
I kissed her then I turned away
Set her free, foolishly, destiny, misery
Tragedy, on our last date.
Took my ring from her trembling finger
Brushed the tears from my baby's eyes
Walked away, didn't know
That I'd soon miss her so
I guess I was too young to realize.
So blind I couldn't see
How much she really meant to me
And that soon she would always be
On my mind, in my heart,
I was blind from the start
Lost her love on our last date...
Too late now I find I care
Her sweet love, never more I'll share
She's gone, I'm alone,
I was wrong, should have known
Took her home after our last date.
I searched for a simply way
To tell her what I had to say
I kissed her then I turned away
Set her free, foolishly, destiny, misery
Tragedy, on our last date.
Took my ring from her trembling finger
Brushed the tears from my baby's eyes
Walked away, didn't know
That I'd soon miss her so
I guess I was too young to realize.
So blind I couldn't see
How much she really meant to me
And that soon she would always be
On my mind, in my heart,
I was blind from the start
Lost her love on our last date...
(Lying Here With) Linda On My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty
Now I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be, the one I left behind
And Lord, it's killing me to see her crying
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind.
Yes, I know that I once loved her
And I placed no one above her
And I never thought I'd ever set her free
But it just wasn't in my plan
The way Linda squeezed my hand
The first time that I held her close as she danced with me.
She said I've loved you for a long time
But you're married to a friend of mine
And I tried hard to never let it show
But my love for you is stronger
I can't hide it any longer
And so I thought I'd better let you know.
Now, I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be, the one I left behind
And Lord, it's killing me to see her crying
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind...
And next to me, my soon to be, the one I left behind
And Lord, it's killing me to see her crying
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind.
Yes, I know that I once loved her
And I placed no one above her
And I never thought I'd ever set her free
But it just wasn't in my plan
The way Linda squeezed my hand
The first time that I held her close as she danced with me.
She said I've loved you for a long time
But you're married to a friend of mine
And I tried hard to never let it show
But my love for you is stronger
I can't hide it any longer
And so I thought I'd better let you know.
Now, I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be, the one I left behind
And Lord, it's killing me to see her crying
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind...
A Bridge That Just Won't Burn lyrics - Conway Twitty
I threw away the pictures of those better days in Dallas
But I can't throw away these pictures in my mind
She's a page of precious memories I've tried hard to turn
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn.
If only time will heal the hurt then this may last forever
I may never know how it feels to forget
Every time I think about her those old feelings still return
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn.
I've burned a lot of bridges in my time
But the one I just crossed over Lord, it ain't the burning kind
She's that once in a lifetime kind of love that never will return
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn.
Oh, She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn...
But I can't throw away these pictures in my mind
She's a page of precious memories I've tried hard to turn
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn.
If only time will heal the hurt then this may last forever
I may never know how it feels to forget
Every time I think about her those old feelings still return
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn.
I've burned a lot of bridges in my time
But the one I just crossed over Lord, it ain't the burning kind
She's that once in a lifetime kind of love that never will return
She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn.
Oh, She's standing on a bridge that just won't burn...
Ages And Ages Ago lyrics - Conway Twitty
I remember when I made you cry
Ages and ages ago
I'll never blame you for our last good bye
Ages and ages ago.
Something told me when you walked away
That my poor heart would miss you so
And though it happened only yesterday
It seemed ages and ages ago.
Someone came along and took my place
How wrong I was to let you go
And though it happened only yesterday
It seemed ages and ages ago.
Something told me when you walked away
That my poor heart would miss you so
And though it happened only yesterday
It seemed ages and ages ago.
Ages and ages ago
I'll never blame you for our last good bye
Ages and ages ago.
Something told me when you walked away
That my poor heart would miss you so
And though it happened only yesterday
It seemed ages and ages ago.
Someone came along and took my place
How wrong I was to let you go
And though it happened only yesterday
It seemed ages and ages ago.
Something told me when you walked away
That my poor heart would miss you so
And though it happened only yesterday
It seemed ages and ages ago.
All I Have To Offer You Is Me lyrics - Conway Twitty
Before you take another step
There's something you should know
About the years ahead and how they'll be
You'll be living in a world where roses hardly ever grow
'Cause all I have to offer you is me.
There'll be no mansions
Waiting on the hill with crystal chandeliers
And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here
In front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me.
Sweetheart, I'll give you all my love in every way I can
But make sure that's what you want while you're still free
The only gold I have for you is in this wedding band
'Cause all I have to offer you is me.
There'll be no mansions
Waiting on the hill with crystal chandeliers
And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here
In front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me.
All I have to offer you is me...
There's something you should know
About the years ahead and how they'll be
You'll be living in a world where roses hardly ever grow
'Cause all I have to offer you is me.
There'll be no mansions
Waiting on the hill with crystal chandeliers
And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here
In front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me.
Sweetheart, I'll give you all my love in every way I can
But make sure that's what you want while you're still free
The only gold I have for you is in this wedding band
'Cause all I have to offer you is me.
There'll be no mansions
Waiting on the hill with crystal chandeliers
And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here
In front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me.
All I have to offer you is me...
C'est Si Bon lyrics - Conway Twitty
C'est si bon (C'est si bon!)
Lovers say that in France (C'est si bon!)
When they thrill to romance (C'est si bon!)
It means that it's oh, so good. (C'est si bon!)
C'est si bon (C'est si bon!)
So I say it to you (C'est si bon!)
Like the French people do (C'est si bon!)
Because it's oh, so good. (C'est si bon!)
Every word, every sigh,
Every kiss, dear,
Leads to only one thought
And it's this, dear!
It's so good (C'est si bon!)
Nothing else can replace (C'est si bon!)
Just your slyest embrace (C'est si bon!)
And if you only would.
Be my own for the rest my days
I will whisper this phrase
My darling,
C'est si bon!
(C'est si bon) How about me saying that honey
(Nothing else can replace) Sounds like Greek to me baby
(Just your slyest embrace) Romance now I got you honey
(And if you only would) And I'll
Be my own for the rest my days
I will whisper this phrase
My darling,
C'est si bon!
(C'est si bon!) Ah, look at here again baby
(C'est si bon!) I'm speaking like this
(C'est si bon!) Yeah, one more time
(C'est si bon!)...
Lovers say that in France (C'est si bon!)
When they thrill to romance (C'est si bon!)
It means that it's oh, so good. (C'est si bon!)
C'est si bon (C'est si bon!)
So I say it to you (C'est si bon!)
Like the French people do (C'est si bon!)

(C'est si bon!) Ah, look at here again baby
(C'est si bon!) I'm speaking like this
(C'est si bon!) Yeah, one more time

City Lights lyrics - Conway Twitty
A bright array of city lights as far as I can see
The great white way shines through the night for lonely guys like me
The cabarets and honky-tonks their flashing signs invite
A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights.
Lights that say forget her name in a glass of sherry wine
Lights that offer other girls for empty hearts like mine
They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright
But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights.
The world was dark and God made stars to brighten up the night
But God who put the stars above I don't believe made those lights
For it's just a place for men to cry when things don't turn out right
Just a place to run away and hide behind those city lights...
The great white way shines through the night for lonely guys like me
The cabarets and honky-tonks their flashing signs invite
A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights.
Lights that say forget her name in a glass of sherry wine
Lights that offer other girls for empty hearts like mine
They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright
But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights.
The world was dark and God made stars to brighten up the night
But God who put the stars above I don't believe made those lights
For it's just a place for men to cry when things don't turn out right
Just a place to run away and hide behind those city lights...
Dang Me lyrics - Conway Twitty
Well here I sit high gettin' ideas
Ain't nothin' but a fool would live like this
Out all night and runnin' wild woman's sittin' home with a month old child
Dang me dang me they oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Just sittin' 'round drinkin' with the rest of the guys six rounds bought and I bought five
I Spent the groceries and a half the rent I lack fourteen dollars havin' twenty seven cents
Dang me dang me they oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Roses 're red and violets 're purple and sugar's sweet and so is maple syrple
Well I'm seventh out of seven sons My pappy was a pistol I'm a son of a gun
Dang me dang me they oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Ain't nothin' but a fool would live like this
Out all night and runnin' wild woman's sittin' home with a month old child
Dang me dang me they oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Just sittin' 'round drinkin' with the rest of the guys six rounds bought and I bought five
I Spent the groceries and a half the rent I lack fourteen dollars havin' twenty seven cents
Dang me dang me they oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Roses 're red and violets 're purple and sugar's sweet and so is maple syrple
Well I'm seventh out of seven sons My pappy was a pistol I'm a son of a gun
Dang me dang me they oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree woman would you weep for me?
Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes lyrics - Conway Twitty
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night, in daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one
I'll ever love.
Too many miles, too many days
Too many nights to be alone
Please keep your heart while we are apart
Don't linger in the moonlight while I'm gone
Too many miles, too many days
Too many nights to be alone
Oh, please keep your heart while we are apart
Don't stand in the moonlight while I'm gone.
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night, in daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return And you know
You're the only one I'll ever love.
Too many miles, too many days
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night, in daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one
I'll ever love.
Too many miles, too many days
Too many nights to be alone
Please keep your heart while we are apart
Don't linger in the moonlight while I'm gone
Too many miles, too many days
Too many nights to be alone
Oh, please keep your heart while we are apart
Don't stand in the moonlight while I'm gone.
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night, in daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return And you know
You're the only one I'll ever love.
Too many miles, too many days
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Faded Love lyrics - Conway Twitty
As I look at the letters
That you wrote to me
It's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines
That to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love.
I miss you darlin' more and more everyday
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love.
I think of the past
And all the pleasures we've had
As I watch the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime
That you said goodbye
And I remember our faded love.
I miss you darlin' more and more every day
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love...
That you wrote to me
It's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines
That to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love.
I miss you darlin' more and more everyday
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love.
I think of the past
And all the pleasures we've had
As I watch the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime
That you said goodbye
And I remember our faded love.
I miss you darlin' more and more every day
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love...
Fit To Be Tied Down lyrics - Conway Twitty
I've always been the travelin' kind
Another town was on my mind
It's not my fault that I was just
Born with a case of wanderlust
But I'm changin' fast
You'll put it all in my past
No more runnin' around
Feel like I'm fit to be tied down
I've loved some women in my time
So I'll leave some broken hearts behind
I know they'll cuss me that much more
But I've found what I've been searchin' for
Yeah I'm changin' fast
You'll put it all in my past
No more runnin' around
I'm finally fit to be tied down
Feel like I'm fit to be tied down
Another town was on my mind
It's not my fault that I was just
Born with a case of wanderlust
But I'm changin' fast
You'll put it all in my past
No more runnin' around
Feel like I'm fit to be tied down
I've loved some women in my time
So I'll leave some broken hearts behind
I know they'll cuss me that much more
But I've found what I've been searchin' for
Yeah I'm changin' fast
You'll put it all in my past
No more runnin' around
I'm finally fit to be tied down
Feel like I'm fit to be tied down
For My Woman's Love lyrics - Conway Twitty
Like the first apartment that we had
That bumpy little couch that made into a bed
The shower down the hall and footsteps overhead
She said it's just fine.
Times were hard for us for quite awhile
But through those hungry days she faced it with a smile
Not wanting me to know she's carrying my child.
She tried to ease my mind
And for my woman's love,
For my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above
For my sweet woman's love.
Through the years of moving town to town
Still searching for a dream somehow we never found
And wondering if we would ever settle down
Her love never died.
And if I am anything today I owe it
To the love I had along the way
No matter what went wrong no matter come what may
She stood by my side
And for my woman's love,
For my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above
For my sweet woman's love.
And for my woman's love,
For my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above
For my sweet woman's love...
That bumpy little couch that made into a bed
The shower down the hall and footsteps overhead
She said it's just fine.
Times were hard for us for quite awhile
But through those hungry days she faced it with a smile
Not wanting me to know she's carrying my child.
She tried to ease my mind
And for my woman's love,
For my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above
For my sweet woman's love.
Through the years of moving town to town
Still searching for a dream somehow we never found
And wondering if we would ever settle down
Her love never died.
And if I am anything today I owe it
To the love I had along the way
No matter what went wrong no matter come what may
She stood by my side
And for my woman's love,
For my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above
For my sweet woman's love.
And for my woman's love,
For my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above
For my sweet woman's love...
Half As Much lyrics - Conway Twitty
If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down.
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you.
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you.
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down.
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you.
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you.
I Don't Know A Thing About Love lyrics - Conway Twitty
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 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 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

I don't know a thing about love,

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 See The Want To In Your Eyes lyrics - Conway Twitty
I see the sparkling little diamond on your hand
It's plain to see that you've already got a man
I can tell you're not about to fall for any of my lines
I see the want to in your eyes
Deep in your smile there's a quiet, soft desire
Like the ember of a once raging fire
You know I could light that fire again
You know it isn't wise
I see the want to in your eyes
How strong is a band of gold
Is it strong enough to hold
When a love has grown cold
And a woman wants a love, sweet and warm
How many women just like you have silent schemes
How many men like me do they sleep with in their dreams
You can stay or you can go and although I sympathize
I still see the want to in your eyes
I see the want to in your eyes
It's plain to see that you've already got a man
I can tell you're not about to fall for any of my lines
I see the want to in your eyes
Deep in your smile there's a quiet, soft desire
Like the ember of a once raging fire
You know I could light that fire again
You know it isn't wise
I see the want to in your eyes
How strong is a band of gold
Is it strong enough to hold
When a love has grown cold
And a woman wants a love, sweet and warm
How many women just like you have silent schemes
How many men like me do they sleep with in their dreams
You can stay or you can go and although I sympathize
I still see the want to in your eyes
I see the want to in your eyes
I Will Always Find My Way To You lyrics - Conway Twitty
If I were a sailor,Lost upon the tide
Sailing round in circles,Half an ocean wide
My heart would be my compass
It would guide me through
I will always find my way to you.
If I were a soldier,In some far distant land
Your face and my memory,Rifle in my hand
I would not fear the bullets,No matter how they flew
I will always find my way to you.
Like a lighthouse on the darkest night
Your love will always shine
And though I may have lost my way
That beacon,I will find.
If I were flier in another time and place
Floating lost and helpless
In the endless bounds of space
I do know more than speak your name
And hope would rise you
I will always find my way to you.
I will always find my way to you...
Sailing round in circles,Half an ocean wide
My heart would be my compass
It would guide me through
I will always find my way to you.
If I were a soldier,In some far distant land
Your face and my memory,Rifle in my hand
I would not fear the bullets,No matter how they flew
I will always find my way to you.
Like a lighthouse on the darkest night
Your love will always shine
And though I may have lost my way
That beacon,I will find.
If I were flier in another time and place
Floating lost and helpless
In the endless bounds of space
I do know more than speak your name
And hope would rise you
I will always find my way to you.
I will always find my way to you...
I'd Love To Lay You Down lyrics - Conway Twitty
There's a lot of ways of sayin' what I want to say to you,
There's songs and poems and promises and dreams that might be true.
But I wont talk of stary skies or moonlight on the ground,
I'll come right out and tell you, I'd just love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
There's so many ways your sweet love made this house into a home.
You've got a way of doin' little things that turn me on.
Like standin' in the kitchen in your faded cotton gown,
With your hair all up in curlers, I'd still love to lay ya down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
When a whole lot of Decembers are showin' in your face.
Your auburn hair has faded and silver takes it's place.
You'll be just as lovely and I'll still be around.
And if I can, I know that I'd still love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things my woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things my woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down...
There's songs and poems and promises and dreams that might be true.
But I wont talk of stary skies or moonlight on the ground,
I'll come right out and tell you, I'd just love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
There's so many ways your sweet love made this house into a home.
You've got a way of doin' little things that turn me on.
Like standin' in the kitchen in your faded cotton gown,
With your hair all up in curlers, I'd still love to lay ya down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
When a whole lot of Decembers are showin' in your face.
Your auburn hair has faded and silver takes it's place.
You'll be just as lovely and I'll still be around.
And if I can, I know that I'd still love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things my woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down.
Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear.
Lay ya down and tell you all the things my woman loves to hear.
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around.
Oh darlin', how I'd love to lay you down...
I'm Not Through Loving You Yet lyrics - Conway Twitty
You came to me, and you threw me, with a simple goodbye
I begged your forgiveness but you won't even try.
You just say that its all over, that you'll soon forget
But I still remember, I'm not through loving you yet.
No, I'm not through loving you
I just need some time
To make the plans that we made come true
Now, you are tired of trying and soon I'll regret
That I couldn't hold you
I'm not through loving you yet.
[Instrumental]
No, I'm not through loving you,
I just need some time
To make the plans that we made come true,
But your tired of trying and soon I'll regret
That I couldnt hold you,
I'm not through loving you yet..
I begged your forgiveness but you won't even try.
You just say that its all over, that you'll soon forget
But I still remember, I'm not through loving you yet.
No, I'm not through loving you
I just need some time
To make the plans that we made come true
Now, you are tired of trying and soon I'll regret
That I couldn't hold you
I'm not through loving you yet.
[Instrumental]
No, I'm not through loving you,
I just need some time
To make the plans that we made come true,
But your tired of trying and soon I'll regret
That I couldnt hold you,
I'm not through loving you yet..
I've Never Seen The Likes Of You lyrics - Conway Twitty
You walk in and I can hear the whispers
As a hush fills the crowded room
You stand there looking just like heaven
Lord, I've never seen the likes of you.
From the doorway your eyes search every table
As every man turns to look at you
You're special and anyone can see it
You know I've never seen the likes of you.
And then I catch your eye from across the room
And you smile back at me, as I walk up to you.
And say, "Hello there.", and put my arms around you
As I remember the day I married you
And now three kids later, You're more beautiful than ever
You know I've never seen the likes of you...
As a hush fills the crowded room
You stand there looking just like heaven
Lord, I've never seen the likes of you.
From the doorway your eyes search every table
As every man turns to look at you
You're special and anyone can see it
You know I've never seen the likes of you.
And then I catch your eye from across the room
And you smile back at me, as I walk up to you.
And say, "Hello there.", and put my arms around you
As I remember the day I married you
And now three kids later, You're more beautiful than ever
You know I've never seen the likes of you...
Is A Blue Bird Blue? lyrics - Conway Twitty
Well, me and my girl went out the other night
Down lover's lane we were walkin'
She said, "Aw honey child, do you love me?"
Right away I started talkin',
"Is a blue bird blue? Has a cat got a tail?
Mmmm, if a blue bird's blue, well then honey, I love you."
Well. I held her close and kissed her
Then I looked in those big green eyes
She said, "I hear boy that you love me!'
I said, "I wouldn't be at all surprised.
Is a blue bird blue? Can a big wheel roll?
Mmmm, if a blue bird's blue, then honey, I love you."
Well, she finally believed my story
Said, "Baby I understand.
Well, now I'm gonna be your little lovin' girl
And you'll be my big lovin' man.
Is a blue bird blue? Ahh, has a bear got hair?
Mmmm, if a blue bird's blue, well honey, I love you."
Ahhh, is a blue bird blue, baby?
Ah, tell me honey, has a bear got hair?
Oooh, can a big wheel roll?..
Down lover's lane we were walkin'

Making Believe lyrics - Conway Twitty
Making believe that you still love me
It's leavin' me alone and so blue
But I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
Making believe, it's all I can do?
Can't hold you close, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe.
Making believe that I never lost you
But my happy hours that I find now are so few
My plans for the future will never come true
Making believe what else can I do?
Can't hold you close, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe...
It's leavin' me alone and so blue
But I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
Making believe, it's all I can do?
Can't hold you close, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe.
Making believe that I never lost you
But my happy hours that I find now are so few
My plans for the future will never come true
Making believe what else can I do?
Can't hold you close, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe...
Oh, What A Dream lyrics - Conway Twitty
Woke up this morning and I looked around
So disappointed, I laid back down
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Dreamed I held you in my arms
But I'm still waitin' for that day to come
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Dreamed we were walkin' down the aisle
The organ was playing "Here Comes the Bride"
You looked up at me, you began to smile
When I looked around everybody began to cry.
I opened my eyes, and you weren't there
All of my happiness just disappeared
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Oh, what a dream.
Oh, what a dream...
So disappointed, I laid back down
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Dreamed I held you in my arms
But I'm still waitin' for that day to come
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Dreamed we were walkin' down the aisle
The organ was playing "Here Comes the Bride"
You looked up at me, you began to smile
When I looked around everybody began to cry.
I opened my eyes, and you weren't there
All of my happiness just disappeared
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Oh, what a dream, Oh, what a dream I had last night.
Oh, what a dream.
Oh, what a dream...
Please Help Me I'm Falling In Love lyrics - Conway Twitty
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you.
Close the door to temptation
Don't let me walk through.
Turn away from me, darling
I'm begging you to.
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you.
I belong to another
Whose arms have grown cold
But I've promised forever
To have and to hold.
I can never be free, dear
Oh but when I'm with you.
I know that I'm losing
The will to be true.
Please help me, I'm falling
And that would be sin.
Close the door to temptation
Don't let me walk in.
For I musent want you
But darlin', I do
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you.
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you...
In love with you.
Close the door to temptation
Don't let me walk through.
Turn away from me, darling
I'm begging you to.
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you.
I belong to another
Whose arms have grown cold
But I've promised forever
To have and to hold.
I can never be free, dear
Oh but when I'm with you.
I know that I'm losing
The will to be true.
Please help me, I'm falling
And that would be sin.
Close the door to temptation
Don't let me walk in.
For I musent want you
But darlin', I do
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you.
Please help me, I'm falling
In love with you...

The Big Man Above lyrics - Conway Twitty
Sometimes in life we ought to think twice
About the people that we step on
Better show our worth while here on earth
For soon the chance is gone
Don't gossip about your neighbor
We gotta show more love
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
I gotta help your neighbor show more love
Lend a hand, don't push and shove
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
Life is but a vapor
It's here and then it's gone
What we build in heaven
Will be there from now on
But things we gather here on earth
Will soon decay and rust
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
Gotta help your neighbor show more love
Lend a hand, don't push and shove
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
About the people that we step on
Better show our worth while here on earth
For soon the chance is gone
Don't gossip about your neighbor
We gotta show more love
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
I gotta help your neighbor show more love
Lend a hand, don't push and shove
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
Life is but a vapor
It's here and then it's gone
What we build in heaven
Will be there from now on
But things we gather here on earth
Will soon decay and rust
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
Gotta help your neighbor show more love
Lend a hand, don't push and shove
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
The Clown lyrics - Conway Twitty
You love the way it makes me feel when I can't catch my breath
Like walkin' on a high wire, Lord, it scares me half to death
You're always high above me and I'm always fallin' down
Our love's just a circus baby, and I'm just the clown.
And I'll do tricks for you, just like you want me to
I'll do anything it takes just to hang around
I'll paint a smile for you to cover up my frown
'Cause our loves a circus and I'm just the clown.
Everyone's in love with you, but they just look at me and laugh
And I'll bet when they see me cry, they think it's just an act
Ah, but someday when it's over and we bring the big top down
You can say it was one big circus and I was just the clown.
And I'll do tricks for you, just like you want me to
I'll do anything it takes just to hang around
I'll paint a smile for you to cover up my frown
'Cause you love the circus, but you don't love the clown...
Like walkin' on a high wire, Lord, it scares me half to death
You're always high above me and I'm always fallin' down
Our love's just a circus baby, and I'm just the clown.
And I'll do tricks for you, just like you want me to
I'll do anything it takes just to hang around
I'll paint a smile for you to cover up my frown
'Cause our loves a circus and I'm just the clown.
Everyone's in love with you, but they just look at me and laugh
And I'll bet when they see me cry, they think it's just an act
Ah, but someday when it's over and we bring the big top down
You can say it was one big circus and I was just the clown.
And I'll do tricks for you, just like you want me to
I'll do anything it takes just to hang around
I'll paint a smile for you to cover up my frown
'Cause you love the circus, but you don't love the clown...
The Games That Daddies Play lyrics - Conway Twitty
He put his arm around her shoulder
with a voice that sounded older
He said, "Mom, I got something on my mind.
I don't wanna bother you but
I sure need to talk to you
If you can only spare the time.
And Mom I hope you understand
How much I love and need you
And I don't want you to take this the wrong way
But don't you think I'm old enough
And big enough and strong enough
To play the games that Daddies play?"
My friend Billy Parker's dad
Came by today to see me
And he wondered if I'd like to go
With him and Billy on a hike
And maybe camp out overnight
The way I've seen 'em do in picture shows
And there's one thing I'd like to do
And maybe if I ask him to
He'd sit and talk with me man to man
We'd only be gone overnight
And I could find out what it's like
To play the games that Daddies play.
She quickly turned to hide the tears
From her son of seven years
He didn't know she'd read between the lines
He'd never really known his dad
And although he'd never ask
She knew exactly what was on his mind
She searched her mind in desperation,
Six long years of separation
Dimmed the words she knew she had to say
I hope you're never big enough
Or old enough or bold enough
To play the games that Daddies play.
I know you need and want his love but,
Son, you're the victim of
Another kind of game that Daddies play...
with a voice that sounded older
He said, "Mom, I got something on my mind.
I don't wanna bother you but
I sure need to talk to you
If you can only spare the time.
And Mom I hope you understand
How much I love and need you
And I don't want you to take this the wrong way

The Hurt In My Heart lyrics - Conway Twitty
I just got the goodbye news
Handed me, down by Travis Shoes
Yes, our love was just a lie
Don't want you to see me cry
But those are hurts, the hurt in my heart
'Cause you always loved me so
Guess a fool's the last to know
Even fools must have their pride
So the pain, I try to hide
But oh, the hurt, the hurt in my heart
Well all alone with these lies too
Now that I, I have known the feeling of loving you
So I find, try to find a way
To bring you back to me some day
When I dream of your embrace
There is a smile upon my face
But oh, the hurt, the hurt in my heart
Oh, oh, this hurt, yes, this hurt in my heart...
Handed me, down by Travis Shoes
Yes, our love was just a lie
Don't want you to see me cry
But those are hurts, the hurt in my heart
'Cause you always loved me so
Guess a fool's the last to know
Even fools must have their pride
So the pain, I try to hide
But oh, the hurt, the hurt in my heart
Well all alone with these lies too
Now that I, I have known the feeling of loving you
So I find, try to find a way
To bring you back to me some day
When I dream of your embrace
There is a smile upon my face
But oh, the hurt, the hurt in my heart
Oh, oh, this hurt, yes, this hurt in my heart...
The Pickup lyrics - Conway Twitty
I saw her walkin' down the street
I tell you all she sure looked neat
Lovely eyes and long black hair
She looked so nervous standing there.
Man's she's great
Think I'll ask her for a date.
I guess I look just like a clown
Getting up and fallin' down
Hangin' on a parkin' meter
Burnin' like a red hot meter.
What a walk
C'mon mouth and talk that talk.
You know I couldn't make a sound
My head was goin' round
I was speechless, yeah
My mind was in a whirl
Cause talkin' to a girl
Is my weakness.
I guess I look just like a clown
Getting up and fallin' down
Hangin' on a parkin' meter
Burnin' like a red hot meter.
What a walk
C'mon mouth and talk that talk.
You know I couldn't make a sound
My head was goin' round
I was speechless, yeah
My mind was in a whirl
Cause talkin' to a girl
Is my weakness.
I guess I musta caught her eye
Cause instead of walkin' by
She walked right up and with a smile
Said c'mon boy I like your style.
Will I date her
So long boy's
I'll see you later
I tell you all she sure looked neat
Lovely eyes and long black hair
She looked so nervous standing there.
Man's she's great
Think I'll ask her for a date.
I guess I look just like a clown
Getting up and fallin' down
Hangin' on a parkin' meter
Burnin' like a red hot meter.
What a walk
C'mon mouth and talk that talk.
You know I couldn't make a sound
My head was goin' round
I was speechless, yeah
My mind was in a whirl
Cause talkin' to a girl
Is my weakness.
I guess I look just like a clown
Getting up and fallin' down
Hangin' on a parkin' meter
Burnin' like a red hot meter.
What a walk
C'mon mouth and talk that talk.
You know I couldn't make a sound
My head was goin' round
I was speechless, yeah
My mind was in a whirl
Cause talkin' to a girl
Is my weakness.
I guess I musta caught her eye
Cause instead of walkin' by
She walked right up and with a smile
Said c'mon boy I like your style.
Will I date her
So long boy's
I'll see you later
The Rose lyrics - Conway Twitty
Some say love, it is a river
And that it drowns the tender reed
And some say love, it's like a razor
And that it leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower
And you, it's only seed.
It's a heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's a dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who can not seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In spring becomes the rose...
And that it drowns the tender reed
And some say love, it's like a razor
And that it leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower
And you, it's only seed.
It's a heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's a dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who can not seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In spring becomes the rose...
The Third Man lyrics - Conway Twitty
Last night I dreamed
I took a walk
Up Calvary's lonely hill,
The things I saw
With my own eyes
Could not have been more real.
I saw upon three crosses
Three men in agony;
Two, cried out for mercy,
And a third man, He looked at me.
And oh, the hurt in this man's eyes
It just broke my heart in two!
And it seemed I could hear him say
"Son, I'm doing this for you."
I knelt beneath the third man's cross,
And slowly bowed my head,
I reached out to touch his feet,
And it stained my hand's with red.
And when I heard him cry in pain,
I raised my eyes to see;
The blood spilled from the third man's side
And some of it spilled on me.
The third man wore a crown of thorns,
Spikes held him to the tree,
And I heard him say, "Oh God, My God,
Why hast thou forsaken me?"
And there within the mighty crowd,
The ones who mocked Him cried
"King, save Thyself if thou art King!"
And then the third man died.
Suddenly, I heard the thunder roll,
I saw the lightening pierce the sky.
Then third man was still hanging there,
And I began to cry.
I saw the boulders fall,
And heard the breaking of the ground.
And then I awoke,
And though I dreamed;
I touched my cheek and found
My eyes were wet where I had cried.
A dream, I wished I knew
I can still hear the third man say,
"I'm doing this for you."..
I took a walk
Up Calvary's lonely hill,
The things I saw
With my own eyes
Could not have been more real.
I saw upon three crosses
Three men in agony;
Two, cried out for mercy,
And a third man, He looked at me.
And oh, the hurt in this man's eyes
It just broke my heart in two!
And it seemed I could hear him say
"Son, I'm doing this for you."
I knelt beneath the third man's cross,
And slowly bowed my head,
I reached out to touch his feet,
And it stained my hand's with red.

And some of it spilled on me.

To See An Angel Cry lyrics - Conway Twitty
See her there, see her crying,
She thinks she loves him so
She don't know how much it hurts me
To hear her beg him not to go.
If she were mine again
I'd never let the tears fill her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see an angel cry.
Once she built her world around me
But like a fool I tore it down
And she begged me not to leave her,
Just the way she's doing now.
Now, she's begging to another
With that same hurt in her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see an angel cry.
I didn't know how much I loved her
Till she turned and walked away
I didn't know how much I'd hurt her
Till I saw her here this way.
If she were mine I'd hold her forever
and dry the tears from her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see my angel cry.
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see my angel cry...
She thinks she loves him so
She don't know how much it hurts me
To hear her beg him not to go.
If she were mine again
I'd never let the tears fill her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see an angel cry.
Once she built her world around me
But like a fool I tore it down
And she begged me not to leave her,
Just the way she's doing now.
Now, she's begging to another
With that same hurt in her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see an angel cry.
I didn't know how much I loved her
Till she turned and walked away
I didn't know how much I'd hurt her
Till I saw her here this way.
If she were mine I'd hold her forever
and dry the tears from her eyes
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see my angel cry.
She don't know how much it hurts me
To see my angel cry...
What Am I Living For? lyrics - Conwat Twitty
Well, What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, What am I longing for, each lonely night,
To feel your lips close to mine, and hold you tight
Well, you'll be the only love, my whole life through,
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, I want you close to me, that's all I know,
And I want you all the time,
Because darling, I love you so.
What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, I want you close to me, that's all I know,
And I want you all the time,
Because darling, I love you so.
Oh, What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
Yes, What am I living fo,r if not for you,
Baby nobody else, nobody else will do.
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do...
What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, What am I longing for, each lonely night,
To feel your lips close to mine, and hold you tight
Well, you'll be the only love, my whole life through,
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, I want you close to me, that's all I know,
And I want you all the time,
Because darling, I love you so.
What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, I want you close to me, that's all I know,
And I want you all the time,
Because darling, I love you so.
Oh, What am I living for, if not for you,
What am I living for, if not for you,
Yes, What am I living fo,r if not for you,
Baby nobody else, nobody else will do.
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do...
You Made Me What I Am lyrics - Conway Twitty
You made me what I am today
Brought me fortune and fame
Before you came my way
Things just weren't the same
My hopes and my fondest dreams
Have all come true
I'm a king on a throne with treasures unknown
And it's all because of you
You made me what I am today
You and you alone
And if you should ever stray
I just couldn't go on
I'd give everything to you
My mansions so tall
Deep within my heart I know, if you should ever go
It would crumble and fall
You made me what I am today
Brought me fortune and fame
Before you came my way
Things just weren't the same
My hopes and my fondest dreams
Have all come true
I'm a king on a throne with treasures unknown
And it's all because of you
Brought me fortune and fame
Before you came my way
Things just weren't the same
My hopes and my fondest dreams
Have all come true
I'm a king on a throne with treasures unknown
And it's all because of you
You made me what I am today
You and you alone
And if you should ever stray
I just couldn't go on
I'd give everything to you
My mansions so tall
Deep within my heart I know, if you should ever go
It would crumble and fall
You made me what I am today
Brought me fortune and fame
Before you came my way
Things just weren't the same
My hopes and my fondest dreams
Have all come true
I'm a king on a throne with treasures unknown
And it's all because of you
