In Loving Memories lyrics - Conway Twitty

I stand here so silent with a blank look on my face
As you lay there dressed in a pure white lace
With my head bowed low Lord the tears are streaming down
I can hear that old preacher man say

In loving memories we gather in loving memories we gather on this sad day
In loving memories forever until we'll meet beyond the shining river

Pretty flowers I'll plant around you and a white fence will surround you
On your marker words of love I'll enscribe
And though in death were apart you know you'll always be in my heart
And it won't be long till I'll be by your side

In loving memories we gather in loving memories we gather on this sad day...

Me And My Neighbor lyrics - Conway Twitty

I was on my way to church one Sunday
I heard my neighbor say,
That other church across the street
Well, it don't belong today.

Why, they scream and shout and they carry on
Like the world was gonna end
And I watched him stand in silence
As the sermon began.

Well, it was my neighbor,
Who stood and listened
While the power of God
Filled the hearts of everyone.

Yes, it was my neighbor
Who kneeled and prayed
Well, it was my neighbor
That shouted louder than anyone.

Well, I stood there and listened,
I could not turn away
Everybody in the neighborhood
All came in to pray.

I won't forget that Sunday
When God filled the neighborhood
It might have been a little old fashioned
But it done us all some good.

Well, it was me and my neighbor,
Who stood and listened
While the power of god
Filled the hearts of everyone.

Yes, it was me and my neighbor
That kneeled and prayed
Well, it was me and my neighbor
That shouted louder than anyone.

Give me that old time religion;
give me that old time religion,
Give me that old time religion,
Its good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion;
give me that old time religion,
Give me that old time religion,
Oh, its good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion;
give me that old time religion,
Give me that old time religion;
Give me that old time religion...

Steal Away lyrics - Conway Twitty

Steal away steal away steal away to Jesus
Steal away steal away home I ain't got long to stay here

I was walkin' in Savannah passed the church decayed and dimmed
When there slowly through the window came a plaintive funeral hymn
And a sympathy awakened and a wonder quickly grew
Till I found myself environed in a little negro pew
Out at front a young couple sat in sorrow and nearly wild
On the altar was a coffin and in the coffin was a child
Rows of sad old negro preacher at a little wooden desk
With a manner grandly offered in the countless grotesque
And he said now don't be weepin' for this pretty bit of clay
For the little boy who lived there why he done up and run away
But he is doin' very finly and he appreaciated your love
But he's sure enough father want him in the large house up above
Now he didn't give you that baby no not by a hundred thousand miles
He just thought you need some sunshine and he lend it to you for awhile
And he let you love and keep till your hearts was bigger grown
And these silver tears you've shed why they're just interest on the lawn
So my poor dejected mourners let your hearts with Jesus rest
And don't go criticize no one that knows the best
He give us many comforts and he has the right to take away
To the Lord be praised in glory now and ever let us pray

My Lord calls me he calls me by the thunder the trumpet sounds within my soul
I ain't got long to stay here

Lead Us Back To Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

Lord Jesus you gotta get us all back together
And lead us back to the top of Calvary once again
Show us where your blood spilled and first made love grow
Cause we turned our backs on your love a long time ago

I see people walkin' the streets with hate in their eyes
We've all turned you off Lord and let your memory die
We're like the men who drove nails in your hands
Confusion lives in every woman and man
Cause somewhere along the way we crucified love

Will it take a miracle to wash the years of doubt from my mind
Or could we just accept this stranger Jesus one more time
Will he have to get back on the cross and bleed
So once again we would believe
And find the love we turned our backs on a long time ago

Oh Jesus you gotta get us all back together...

Who Will Pray For Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

My rough and rowdy ways
Have kept me from his grace
But there's hope for me
'Cause momma's faith is strong
She's the only hope I've got
To keep me in touch with God.
But who'll pray for me when momma's gone?

Who'll pray for me when momma's gone?
Who'll ask his forgiveness from then on?
Who'll care enough to talk to God?
When her pleading voice has stopped
Who'll pray for me when momma's gone?

I guess I'm just too weak
To fall down on my knees
And talk to God
Like a man on my own
He knows who I am
She mentions me to him
But who'll pray for me when momma's gone?

Who'll pray for me when momma's gone?
Who'll ask his forgiveness from then on?
Who'll care enough to talk to God?
When her pleading voice has stopped
Who'll pray for me when momma's gone?

Who'll pray for me when momma's gone?..

Jesus Is A Soul Man lyrics - Conway Twitty

Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
And I'm sure sold on Him.

Oh, they say that He's a square,
That Jesus, He ain't nowhere.
I know better, He lives in my heart.
Jesus is a soul man.

You can find Him in the Bible pages.
Jesus, He's the rock of ages.
Hides me in the cleft of the rock.
Jesus is a soul man.

Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
And I'm sure sold on Him.

He calms the waves when the storm is ragin'.
Keeps me safe when the devil's ravin'.
He's my staff, He's my sword and my shield.
Jesus is a soul man.

Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego,
The king, he said, In the fire you must go.
He found out that the fire wouldn't burn 'em.
They were saved by the soul man.

Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
And I'm sure sold on Him.

Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
Jesus is a soul man,
And I'm sure sold on Him.

If We Want Love To Last lyrics - Conway Twitty

Everybody I know is a looking for love but they don't know how they give it
Everybody is a looking for more out of life but they don't know how they live it
Like everything else if we don't return it the love's gonna run out fast
We gotta puttin' more in than we take out if we want love to last

Well if it don't rain we might go to church to put in a dollar bill
Shake the precher's hand and ask him for dinner but really hope he never will
Then we wonder why we don't get ahead as life keeps up passin' us by
We keep a looking for things that we can't find and keep on wondering why

Everybody I know is a looking for love but they don't know how they give it...

Well we can't afford just to take a little time to help a poor soul in need
We do just enough to heed our conscience in the world of hate and greed
What we needed for love was the cause of the color of the mam we walk right past
We gotta puttin' more in than we take out if we want love to last

Everybody I know is a looking for love but they don't know how they give it...

"You've Never Been This Far Before/baby's Gone" (1973)

You've Never Been This Far Before lyrics - Conway Twitty

I can almost hear the stillness
as it yields to the sound of your heart beating
and I can almost hear the echo
of the thoughts that I know you must be thinking
and I can feel your body tremble
as you wonder what this moment holds in store
and as I put my arms around you
I can tell you've never been this far before

I don't know what I'm saying
as my trembling fingers touch forbidden places
I only know that I have waited
for so long for the chance that we are taking
I don't know and I don't care
what made you tell him you don't love him anymore
and as I taste your tender kisses
I can tell you've never been this far before

and as I take the love you're giving
I can feel the tension building in your mind
and you're wondering if tomorrow
I'll still love you like I'm loving you tonight
you have no way of knowing
but tonight will only make me love you more
and I hope that you'll believe me
'cause I know you've never been this far before

Born To Lose lyrics - Conway Twitty

Born to lose
I've lived my life in vain
Every dream
Has only brought me pain.

All my life
I've always been so blue
Born to lose
And now I'm losin' you.

Born to lose
It's been so hard to bear
And when I've waited
And I found that you're not there.

You've grown tired
And now you say we're through
Born to lose
And now I'm losin' you.

--- Instrumental ---

Mhm All my life
I've always been so blue
Born to lose
And now I'm, I'm losin' you...

Bring It On Home To Your Woman lyrics - Conway Twitty

Oh, I've got a few good words to lay on everybody
It's about a man too blind to understand
The way I've treated my woman was a doggone pity
But we know there's a weakness in every man.

Just like a fool I went and left my baby crying
A different kind of lovin' I had on my mind
But everybody that I met was either cheatin' or lying
When I get a good thing at home all the time.

It's a lonely old feeling when you go from town to town
When you can't get the woman at home off your mind
I'm so tired of livin' in this new world that I've found
Lord I hope I didn't waste too much time.

I gotta put my pride aside and call my baby
Gotta do it now can't wait another day
I dialed a number and then I heard the voice of my lady
It blew my mind when I heard her say.

And she said (bring it on home) to your woman
I've got a lot of lovin' a waitin' I hope you ain't forgot
And she said (bring it on home) to your woman
And when you get there you better
Give me all the love you've got.

And she said (bring it on home) to your woman
I've got a lot of lovin' a waitin' I hope you ain't forgot
And she said (bring it on home) to your woman
And when you get there you better
Give me all the love you've got...

Till The Pain Outwears The Shame lyrics - Conway Twitty

It's common knowledge everybody knows I love you
When cheatin' caused you wear another's name
Every night I swear tomorrow I'll forget you Lord I can't
I'll keep hurtin' till the pain outwears the shame.

So I'll be back in your arms again tomorrow
We'd led us part a stolen love become a burning flame
It's wrong and I should go but when I do I know
I'll be hurtin' till the pain outwears the shame.

Tonight I love you for the last time then I'll say goodbye
But down inside I know it's all in vain
Before I'll leave the hurt's already startin' I can't go
I think it's over till the pain outwears the shame.

So I'll be back in your arms again tomorrow
We'd led us part a stolen love become a burning flame
It's wrong and I should go but when I do I know
I'll be hurtin' till the pain outwears the shame...

Weakness In Your Man lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've seen these teardrops fill your eyes so many times before
And each time I tell myself I won't hurt you anymore
I know you know that hurting you's not part of my plan
It's just part of the weakness in your man.

It seems I never say the things that I want you to know
I love you but I know sometimes I just don't let it show
I guess I just expect you to stand by and understand
It's just part of the weakness in your man.

I know you love me and I know how hard you try
You do everything you can to satisfy
I never mean to do the things I know I sometimes do
And I'll forget the little things that mean so much to you.

But you take all this and with one sweet kiss
I know you'll understand
It's just part of the weakness in your man.
It's just part of the weakness in your man...

Seasons Of My Heart lyrics - Conway Twitty

The seasons come the seasons go
We get sunshine rain and snow
Just the way that it was planned to be.
But there's no seasons in my heart
While you play the leading part
'Cause the flowers will bloom eternaly.

Your leaving will bring autumn sorrow
And my tears, like withered leaves will fall
But spring could bring some glad tomorrow
Darling, we could be happy after all.

Your leaving will bring autumn sorrow
And my tears, like withered leaves will fall
But spring could bring some glad tomorrow
Darling, we could be happy after all.

And she did, and it did, and Lord knows I didn't
And I know I'll never again
She left me somewhere between, it's over and the end
With more than an effort to destroy any man.

There'll never be another to share the love that lives
'Cause her leaving left me no love to give

I knew if she left me it would surely destroy me
I'll never forget her for the love we had then.
And she didm and it did, and Lord knows
I didn't and I know I'll never again.

I knew if she left me it would surely destroy me
I'll never forget her for the love we had then.
And she didm and it did, and Lord knows
I didn't and I know I'll never again...

When The Final Change Is Made lyrics - Conway Twitty

Lately, I watched strange changes overcome you
Destroying the loving part of you, I knew
You're letting someone turn you into a stranger
And when the final change is made, I won't have you.

When the final change is made, I won't have you
Someone's got you chasing rainbows, in your mind
He already owns your conscience, but he's not true
'Cause when the final change is made, he'll have you.

When the final change is made, he'll have you
But he'll never own the part of you, I love
And I'll turn to that loving part of you, I knew
'Cause when the final change is made, I'll still want you.

Yes, when the final change is made, I'll still love you...

Above And Beyond (The Call Of Love) lyrics - Conway Twitty

I'll give you love that's above and beyond the call of love
And I'll never ever make you cry
I'll give you love that's above and beyond the call of love
And love is something that money can't buy.

Well, a poor boy's chances for a pretty girl's glances
Are sometimes very few
Ain't got no money if you'll be my honey
Here's what I'll offer you.

I'll give you love that's above and beyond the call of love
And I'll never ever make you cry
I'll give you love that's above and beyond the call of love
And love is something that money can't buy.

Oh, we met by chance and I knew at a glance
That I'd found my destiny
I'd still carry you off and marry you if
You would agree.

To givin' me love that's above and beyond the call of love
And I'll never ever make you cry
I'll give you love that's above and beyond the call of love
And love is something that money can't buy...

You Make It Hard To Take The Easy Way Out lyrics - Conway Twitty

Doing wrong is not a habit on mine
But tonight I know I did for, the very first time
Soon I'll face you for I love you without a doubt
You make it hard to take the easy way out.

I'll confess and hope that you understand
Then I'll beg you to forgive this one mistake, in your man
Yes, I'll admit I came back on your account
You make it hard to take the easy way out.

You make it hard to take the easy way out
To lose your love would be the end, there's no doubt
The hurt I feel is only shame I brought about
You make it hard to take the easy way out...

I Love You More In Memory lyrics - Conway Twitty

Just outside my window there's a sound that I can't stand
The cold night rain is falling and the crying lonesome wind
It's telling me you're gone and he's with you tonight
I love you more in memory than he can holding you tight.

There were times when you were happy but just for a while
Then a hunger for his love came and took away your smile
While you're in his arms you'll be in my dreams tonight
I love you more in memory than he can holding you tight.

You know I loved you and I know how hard you'd try
But there's a part of you I never could satisfy
So I'm losing your sweet love a little more each night
I love you more in memory than he can holding you tight.

I love you more in memory than he can holding you tight...

"She Needs Someone To Hold Her (When She Cries)" (1973)

She Needs Someone To Hold Her (When She Cries) lyrics - Conway Twitty

Lord, she needs someone to hold her when she cries.

She packed her few belongings left a note and now she's gone
And I can't stand to think of her out there so all alone
As soon as she's gone far enough to know she's out of sight
She'll pull off the highway and she'll cry.

And she needs someone to hold her when she cries
Someone who really understands the way she feels inside
When her heart breaks the tears won't stop, no matter how she tries
And she needs someone to hold her when she cries.

I don't blame her for leavin' Lord, she didn't want to go
But she thinks I don't love her or need her anymore
I've driven her into a world as dark and cold as ice
With no one there to hold her when she cries.

And she needs someone to hold her when she cries
Someone who really understands the way she feels inside
And if she ever loves again I hope that she will find
Someone who'll always hold her when she cries.

Sweet Memories lyrics - Conway Twitty

I'll still have memories sweet memories of you

Sometimes I wonder now and then
Of all the things that might have been
Thinking of the things we used to do
I should have shown you more love then
I'll never have the chance again
I'll still have memories sweet memories of you

Memories of the past
Dreams of things that didn't last
I'll still have memories sweet memories of you

I brought your mem'ry from the past
From all the things that didn't last
A memory of love we thought was true
Regrets are made from things that you
Always planned but never do
That's what brought memories sweet memories of you

Memories of the past...

I've Just Destroyed The World lyrics - Conway Twitty

The sun just went behind the clouds there's darkness all around me now
And I've just destroyed the world I'm livin' in
I broke her so many times and now at last I've broken mine
And I've just destroyed the world I'm livin' in

What made me think that I could go on hurting her
I should have known there'd have to be an end
But fools in love I thought by fate they never learn till it's too late
And I've just destroyed the world I'm livin' in

What made me think that I could go on hurting her...

Even The Bad Times Are Good lyrics - Conway Twitty

Even the bad times are good

If there's a chance that your heart misses
The words I try to say with kisses
If I don't seem to look as happy
As I should

I don't want to live without you
I love everything about you
Yes, even the bad times are good

Your middle name should be perfection
For that's what you are to me
Even in my darkest moment
You made it easier to see

I wouldn't change one thing about you
If I knew that I could
Yes, even the bad times are good

Your middle name should be perfection
For that's what you are to me
Even in my darkest moment
You made it easier to see

I wouldn't change one thing about you
If I knew that I could
Yes, even the bad times are good
Even the bad times are good

It's Not Love But It's Not Bad lyrics - Conway Twitty

She was always there each time I needed you
Holdin' on to me like I held on to you
We still don't have what you and I once had
No it's not love but it's not bad

No it's not love not like ours was
It's not love but it keeps love from drivin' me mad
And I don't have to wonder who she's had
No it's not love but it's not bad

I turn to her when you leave me alone
Sometimes even when you're here but you're still gone
She's slowly changing what you leave so sad
No it's not love but it's not bad

No it's not love not like ours was...

Dim Lonely Places lyrics - Conway Twitty

Dim lonely places,
Old familiar faces
Stand out in my memory
In her eyes,
The reflection
Of love and affection,
A picture of what used to be.

I still remember
That night in December
When she walked
Right out of my world
And now it's all over
It's ending
It's over
When I want
To be with my girl ,

I go back to those
Dim lonely places,
Old familiar faces
Stand out in my memory
In her eyes,
The reflection
Of love and affection,
A picture of what used to be.

I still remember
That night in December
When she walked
Right out of my world
And now it's all over
It's ending
And It's over
When I want
To be with my girl.

I go back to those
Dim Lonely Places,
Old familiar faces
Stand out in my memory
In her eyes,
The reflection
Of love and affection,
A picture of what used to be...

Darlin' lyrics - Conway Twitty

Darlin', dearest darlin'
Put your arms around me baby please
Darlin', dearest darlin'
Kiss me one more time before you leave.

If you must go be on your way
Before I start in begging you to stay with me
I am getting weak from being strong
The first thing that you know I'll be down on my knees.

Darlin', dearest darlin'
Always in my heart and in my thoughts
Darlin', dearest darlin'
Havin' loved you once I've never stopped.

Darlin', dearest darlin'
Put your arms around me baby please

I Don't Believe I'll Fall In Love Today lyrics - Conway Twitty

I don't believe I'll fall in love today
Old memories of you stand in the way
I just can't make my heart find someone new
It's always much too busy loving you

So I don't believe I'll fall in love today
Cause if I did I'm sure I wouldn't stay
You'd come between us like you always do
Somehow she'd never measure up to you

Each night I pray I'll wake at dawn and find
Another in my heart and on my mind
Then I'll awake and hear my poor heart say
I don't believe I'll fall in love today
[ fiddle - steel ]
Each night I pray I'll wake at dawn and find...

Each Season Changes You lyrics - Conway Twitty

Like the weather your heart changes with each season
Springtime summer fall and winter too
Though I know I'll never understand the reason
I still wonder why each season changes you

It was springtime when I found you like a flower
And our love grew warmer with the summer sun
In the fall I could see our love was changing
It broke my heart to see what wintertime had done

Like the weather your heart changes with each season...

Why Not Tonight lyrics - Conway Twitty

Let's forget unpleasant mem'ries let them lie there in the past
Say you love me again that tonight won't be our last
Yesterday's gone forever and tomorrow's out of sight
So if you've ever loved me then why not tonight

Why not tonight why not tonight
If you can't forgive me and love me again
Then why not tonight

We'll search back through the ashes of the bridges we've burned
All the lessons we've been taught surely ones we've learned
We've got a chance in a lifetime to find love that's right
If you're ever gonna love me then why not tonight

Why not tonight why not tonight...

Sweetheart look at me and listen our love is like an eternal flame
And I don't believe that it'll ever die
And this may be our last chance to make things right
So if you've ever gonna love me then why not tonight

Don't Cry Daddy lyrics - Conway Twitty

Today I stumbled from my bed
With thunder crashing around my head
My pillow still wet
From last nights tears
And as I think of giving up
A voice inside my coffee cup
Keeps crying out
And ringing in my ears.

Don't cry daddy
Daddy, please don't cry
Daddy, you've still got me, Jimmy and Johnny
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh, daddy, please don't cry.

Why must children be the first
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
It's true somehow it don't seem right
And ev'ry time I cry I know
It hurts my little children so
I wonder will it be the same tonight?

Don't cry daddy
Daddy, please don't cry
Daddy, you've still got me, Jimmy and Joni
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again.

Oh, daddy, please don't cry
Well daddy, please don't cry

Maybe baby, I'll have you

It's funny honey you don't care
You never listen to my prayer
Maybe baby you will love me someday (Someday)

Maybe baby, you'll be true
Maybe baby, I'll have you for me (All for me)
Maybe baby, I'll have you for me (You're for me)

Baby, I miss your lovin' badly
So give me some lovin', I need your lovin' bad.

Born To Sing The Blues lyrics - Conway Twitty

Born to sing the blues
So tired an' worn, just singin' the blues
Alone right from the start,
I walked alone with blues in my heart.

True love, (true love) I've never known (I've never known.)
Everything (everything) I do is wrong. (all wrong.)
But wrong, I've always been
It's hard to go on when I never win.

My life, (my life) my destiny, (my destiny.)
Is loneliness (lonliness) and misery. (misery.)
My life, I didn't choose.
I guess, I was born to sing the blues.

The lonesome blues,
The weary blues...

Crazy Dreams lyrics - Conway Twitty

Dreams, dreams
Crazy dreams
Now, I have
These crazy dreams.

You know, I know
You broke my heart
That's why I have
These crazy dreams.

Blue, Blue
Alone with the blues
At night I have
These crazy dreams.

Near, far
Like falling rain
At night I only
Dream again.

Dream, dream
Crazy dreams
At night I have
Crazy dreams.

Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...

"I Can't Stop Loving You / (Lost Her Love) On Our Last Date" (1972)

(Lost Her 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...

Candy lyrics - Conway Twitty

Candy came from L.A., California
He was a picture of a perfect man
His hair was styled and his silken suits were tailored
He drove a red imported sports sedan.

Candy was a travelling playboy
His heart was made of solid stone
He would find them, love them and then he'd leave them
Candy lived upon a throne.

My baby fell just like he wanted
Candy ruined our happy home
Baby's gotta a sweet tooth for Candy
But candy won't last long.

Well, baby's gotta sweet tooth for Candy
She's gonna find her taste is not so sweet
She thinks she has found a real Jim Dandy
We'll wait 'til she finds he's not for keeps.

Candy is a whole lot like him
Candy is sweet but when it's gone, it's gone
It'll melt away then tell me who's the sucker
Well, that's when my baby will come home.

My baby fell just like he wanted
Candy ruined our happy home
Baby's gotta a sweet tooth for Candy.
Awww, Candy won't last long.

Yeah, Candy you won't last long...

Hold To My Unchanging Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

When you're tempted by another
Who could thrill you through and through
Think of all the love I'm giving
Love I'll share with only you.

Hold to my unchanging love
Hold to my unchanging love
Don't go looking for another
Hold to my unchanging love.

There are men who long to hold you
And they'll promise you the world
Don't be fooled by all their woeing
I want you to be my girl.

Baby, hold to my unchanging love
Hold to my unchanging love
Don't go looking for another
Hold to my unchanging love.

Baby, Won't you hold to my unchanging love...

I Still See Him lyrics - Conway Twitty

I see him everyday in the same old haunting way
Of his hiding place wearing his same disguise
And this hurting me to know he's hurting someone I love so
But I still see him through the hurt in your eyes.

You'll never talk about him and I'll never let to know
About the one you must have loved so much so long ago
You're wanting to forget him and I know how your heart tries
But I still see him through the hurt in your eyes.

You've painted me his picture with words you couldn't speak
And I've seen his reflection in a mem'ry on your cheek
You're wanting to forget him and I know how your heart tries
But I still see him through the hurt in your eyes.

Yes, I still see him through the hurt in your eyes...

I Just Wanted You To Know lyrics - Conway Twitty

Things work out for the best some people say
My wanting you has turned to love and just today
I realized I've loved you long ago
These are some little things I just wanted you to know.

I just wanted you to know I love you
Though I don't have the right to let it show
I should have shown my feelings long ago
These are some little things I just wanted you to know.

The hardest part is knowing you want me too
Your eyes tell me you understand what I go through
He's got you but you love me and you'll let it show
These are some little things I just wanted you to know.

And if someday he'll set you free, just tell me so
These are some little things I just wanted you to know...

I Can't Stop Loving You lyrics - Conway Twitty

I can't stop loving you so I made up my mind
To live in memories of old lonesome times.
I can't stop wanting you, it's useless to say
So I just live my life in dreams of yesterday.

Those happy hours that we once knew
So long ago, still make me blue.
And they say that time heals a broken heart
But time has stood still since we've been apart.

I can't stop love you, so I made up my mind
To live in memories of old lonesome times.
I can't stop wanting you, it's useless to say
So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday.

Imagination Running Wild lyrics - Conway Twitty

Just like all the other times as we entered
Across the white dance floor then to the bar
I thought I saw him smile in your direction
Or was my imagination running wild?

With ten minutes he had asked you for a dance love
Oh, too soon you said you'd like it fine
I thought you danced too close to be strangers
Or was my imagination out of line?

As the night grew old the wine had made you careless
It seemed to me that he was just your style
I said let's go home before there's some heartache
And you said your imagination's running wild.

My mind was filled with cruel and painful vision
Afraid I might be wrong, I tried to smile
Then you left with him and all my fears were happ'ning
And my poor imagination's running wild.

Yes, my poor imagination's running wild...

White Lightning lyrics - Conway Twitty

(Whew whay soway) white lightning

In the Arkansas mountains way back in the hills
Lived my old pappy we had us a still
We brewed white lightning till the sun went down
And we take out a jug and we pass it around
Mighty, mighty pleasin', my pappy's corn squeezin'
(Whew whay soway) white lightning.

Well, I asked my old pappy why he called his brew
White lightning stead of mountain dew
I took a little sip and right away I knew
My eyes bugged out (and my face turned blue)
Lightning started splashin', thunder started crashin'
(Whew whay soway) white lightning.

Well, the G men, T men, revenoers too
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
They were lookin', tryin' to book him
But my pappy kept on cookin'
(Whew whay soway) white lightning.

Well, a city slicker came and he said I'm tough
I gotta have a drink of that powerful stuff
He took one drink and he slug it right down
And I heard him a moanin' as he hit the ground
Mighty, mighty pleasin', your pappy's corn squeezin'
(Whew whay soway) white lightning.

Well the G men, T men...

Back When Judy Loved Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

There was backstreets of Birmingham,
Taking my clothes and my food and a trash can.
Sleeping in alleys at night, making love to a bottle of wine
'Cause you know life is to succeed
But that was back when Judy loved me
Somewhere in yesterday, seems a million miles away.

Back in the days Judy used to beg me to take her away
But I was too young and livin' was fun
I didn't know how time would change me
Life slid by me too fast, the fun didn't last,
It's too late to get back to the days when Judy loved me.

Riding a frieght train goin' nowhere
Don't use mirrors anymore, they show my grey hair
Giving my place in the welfare line
Trading my soup for a bottle of wine
'Cause you know life is to succeed
But that was back when Judy loved me.

Somewhere in yesterday, seems a million miles away
Back in the days Judy used to beg me to take her away
But I was too young and livin' was fun
I didn't know how time would change me.

Life slid by me too fast, the fun didn't last,
It's too late to get back to the days when Judy loved me
Back when Judy loved me.
Back when Judy loved me...

Key's In The Mailbox lyrics - Conway Twitty

Oh, jealous me and careless you, the odds were just too great
I couldn't take those lonely nights, you made me sit and wait
I thought I'd seen the last of you when you walked out of sight
Instead I see you in my dreams each night.

Oh, the key's in the mailbox come on in
I'm sittin' here wishing dear, I had your love again
I'd never even ask you where you've been
The key's in the mailbox come on in.

I said, I'd rather be alone than share your company
I said, don't come around at all if you want more than me
But sittin' here alone I can't deny this flame that burns
I'd gladly take you back on any terms.

Oh, the key's in the mailbox come on in
I'm sittin' here wishing dear, I had your love again
I'd never even ask you where you've been
The key's in the mailbox come on in...

Since She's Not With The One She Loves lyrics - Conway Twitty

You say somehow she don't fit in with your old drinking crowd
Well bartender it's all new to her she's a lady and should be proud.
She loved me so long and asked so little but I always gave her less
Now since she's not with the one she loves she'll love the one she's with.

I remember the nights she cried for me and she had every right
While she stayed at home and waited I was out like she is tonight.
Now, I know how it hurts to be alone and to see her here like this
Now since she's not with the one she loves she'll love the one she's with.

Since she's not with the one she loves she loves the one she's with
I came here to say I love her but I'm too late I guess
She went as far as she could go without love then turned the list
Since she's not with the one she loves she'll love the one she's with.

Since she's not with the one she loves she loves the one she's with
I came here to say I love her but I'm too late I guess
She went as far as she could go without love then turned the list
Since she's not with the one she loves she'll love the one she's with...

"I Can't See Me Without You" (1972)

I Can't See Me Without You lyrics - Conway Twitty

I can't see you in my arms anymore
And I can't see me without you.

Is it day, is it night
Am I losing my sight
Is it over, are we really through?
I can't see you in my arms anymore
And I can't see me without you.

I can't see me without you to lean on
And I can't see you leaving or gone.
I could never see anything you wanted me to
And I can't see me without you.

I see the house, you once called your home
And I see the door you walked through
And I see the road you're leaving me on
But I can't see me without you.

I can't see me without you to lean on
And I can't see you leaving or gone
I could never see anything you wanted me to
And I can't see me without you...

Looking Through My Glass lyrics - Conway Twitty

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...


It's Been One Heck Of A Day lyrics - Conway Twitty

It all started early this morning
As her mem'ry cruely eased my mind
I found a picture in my wallet
I thought I threw away
Oh, it's been one heck of a day.

Then while looking through the evening papers
I ran across some torturing news
Mr. and Mrs, O'Grady now have a new baby
Oh, it's been one heck of a day.

Is it there for me to love her
And cry at the thought of her
When my only hope is a dream

An old friend dropped by late this evening
Wouldn't you know he asked about her
But I guess he didn't know that I lost her long ago
Oh, it's been one heck of the day.

Oh, it's been one heck of a day...

Kiss An Angel Good Mornin' lyrics - Conway Twitty

Whenever I chance to meet, some old friends on the street
They wonder, how does a man get to be this way
I've always got a smilin' face, any time and any place
And everytime they ask me why, I just smile and say.

You've got to kiss an angel good mornin'
And let her know you think about her when you're gone
Kiss an angel good mornin'
And love her like a devil when you get back home.

Some people may try to guess, the secret of a happiness
But some of them never learn, it's a simple thing
The secret I'm speaking of, is a woman and a man in love
The answer is in that song, Charlie always sings.

You've got to kiss an angel good mornin'
And let her know you think about her when you're gone
Kiss an angel good mornin'
And love her like a devil when you get back home.

You've got to kiss an angel good mornin'
And let her know you think about her when you're gone
Kiss an angel good mornin'
And love her like a devil when you get back home...

I Didn't Lose Her lyrics - Conway Twitty

You may find her in a tavern in the cheap part of town
With bright lights and music and a crowd gathered round
It may be too late now to tell her but I love her more today
But I didn't lose her, I threw her away.

She stood by me, looked for the good in me
When she knew I was wrong
I would love her just enough to keep her hanging on
She stayed much longer than she should
Then she walked out one day
But I didn't lose her, I threw her away.

She only wanted me to love her and to tell her so each day
Now, she's somewhere in a tavern wasting her life away
But don't be too fast to condemn her for what she might do or say
For I didn't lose her, I threw her away...

I'll Never Make It Home Tonight lyrics - Conway Twitty

Today, I started home with just a mile ago
And everythin' was goin' on right
And then I heard sock it to me on the radio
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Well I made it down on the old crossroad
Where the wrong road leads to the right
Then I thought of many in the mini skirts
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Yeah, the road to the right is wrong
The one to the left is right
I'm a lookin' for the right place to go wrong
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Yeah, the road to the right is wrong
The one to the left is right
I'm a lookin' for the right place to go wrong
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Down in the glad place for the sad I'm losin'
For I'm gonna get fight
I'm a lookin' for good place to go bad
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Well, I got kinda high and live a little low
Started home about daylight
When I got to the road where I should've get left
Again I turn to the right.

Yeah, the road to the right is wrong
The one to the left is right
I'm a lookin' for the right place to go wrong
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Yeah, the road to the right is wrong
The one to the left is right
I'm a lookin' for the right place to go wrong
And I'll never make it home tonight.

Yeah, it don't look like I'm gonna make it home tonight...

This Road That I Walk lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, this road that I walk is a mighty lonely road
It's low that I bear to mighty heavy load
And this song that I sing is a mighty lonely song
I had a true love but I done her wrong.
(He had a true love but he done her wrong.)

Well, this road that I walk it has no end
And on this road I walk I have no friends
The people that I pass are people just like me
Who do forever walk this road of misery.
(He had a true love but he done her wrong)
(Now he walks this road of misery alone.)

Well, this road that I walk is for fools like you
This road that I walk you're gonna walk it too
Each step that you take leads you up very smart
You had a true love but you broke her heart.

You had a true love but you done her wrong
Like me you must walk this road of misery alone
You had a true love but you done her wrong
Like me you must walk this road of misery alone...

She Knows What She's Crying About lyrics - Conway Twitty

You may think she's not been true
All those things she's telling you
But believe me, what she says is really true
'Cause I'm the one who left her there
I'm the one who didn't care
And she knows what she's crying about.

She knows what she's crying about.
She bears the flame though,
I'm to blame there's no doubt
I never even tried to say or accept the love she gave
And she knows what she's crying about.

She gave me her very best
I was wrong to give the rest
All the love that she so desperately tried to hold
I made her shed a million tears
All I did was waste her years
And she knows what she's crying about.

She knows what she's crying about.
She bears the flame though,
I'm to blame there's no doubt
I never even tried to say or accept the love she gave
And she knows what she's crying about...

She's All I Got lyrics - Conway Twitty

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need.

She is life when I want to live
She's everything to me in life that's really real
She's my water when I need a drink
She's the first thought in my mind
Each time I try to think.

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a-beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need.

She's my fingers when I want to feel
She's the only thing in life to me that's really real
She is love, she's all the love I know
She could kiss the ground in the wintertime
And make a flower grow.

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got...

One More Sunrise lyrics - Conway Twitty

There'll be just one more sunrise
In this cell for brother and me
He'll go home while I'll go
To the hanging tree.

Tell Betty I still love her
And kiss her once for me
And tell mama at sunrise
We'll both be free.

Sitting in my prison cell
The day is just beginning
My spirit's alike a grey
On every wall.

Beside is my brother
Tomorrow we'll both be leaving
He'll go home while they'll lead me
Down the hall.

He was always the blacksheep
There's one in every family
But he was always
Just little brother to me.

And that's why I took the blame
When he killed a man in Knoxville
But tomorrow at sunrise we'll both be free
There'll be just one more sunrise.

Oh, tell mama at sunrise
We'll both be free...

It's A Cryin' Shame lyrics - Conway Twitty

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.

Readin' your letter
I didn't no whether
To call you up and talk again
When I saw the name it signed
Goin' through my mind
Was a memory of way back when.

Now all that I can wish you
Is a good love baby
Sorry that it couldn't be me
'Cause it felt so right
If we held on tight
I'd be with you tonight.
We never should have left our,

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.

I won't forget the summer
My heart was like a drummer
Just beatin' every night away
Walkin' in the sun with you baby
We were one and our new love
Was really ours to stay
Now all I get to keep is a faded picture
You belong to him today
And the memory
Of you and me
Is just a used to be.
We never should have left our,

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have, it shame we don't have it.

Love slips through my hands
It's a cryin' shame
I've been playing no game
Love fell at my feet.
It's a cryin' shame
And the bitter isn't the sweet
Oh, oh, I'm so sorry, baby.

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have no more, no more.

Looking Back lyrics - Conway Twitty

Lookin' back over my life
I can see where, where I caused you strife
But I know, oh yes, I know,
I'd never make that same mistake again.

Lookin' back over my deeds
I can see signs that a wise man needs
Oh, if I had just one more chance
I'd know I'd never make that same mistake again.

Once my cup was overflowin'
But I, I gave nothin' in return
But I can't, I can't begin to tell you
What a lesson, what a lesson I have learned.

Lookin' back over the slate
I can see love as it turns to hate
But I know, oh yes, I know,
I know I'd never make that same mistake again...

Hound Dog lyrics - Conway Twitty

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog, a-baby

Fever lyrics - Conway Twitty

Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever - when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever - in the morning
Fever all through the night

Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
Because you know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever - when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever - in the morning
Fever all through the night

Now listen to me baby
And hear every word I say
No one can love you like I do
Cause they don't know how to love you my way

You give me fever - when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever - in the morning
Fever all through the night

Well, now you've heard my story
Here's the point that I have made:
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it fahrenheit or centigrade

They give you fever - yeah, when you kiss them
Fever when you live and learn
Fever - till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn

What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn...

I Almost Lost My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

When I lost my baby
I almost lost my mind
When I lost my baby
I almost lost my mind
My heads been in a spin
Since she's left me behind.

I went to see the gypsy
To have my fortune read
I went to see the gypsy
To Have my fortune read
I hung my head in sorrow
When she said what she said.

Well, I can tell you, people
The news was not so good
I can tell you, people
The news was not so good
This time "Your baby's left you"
And But "This time she's gone for good".

She said, This time "Your baby's left you"
And But "This time she's gone for good."..

"We Only Make Believe" (1971)




We've Closed Our Eyes To Shame lyrics - Conway Twitty

We both agree we shouldn't be so much in love this way
Although it's wrong we go along just lovin' more each day
We act so proud out in the crowd while another wears my name
We've opened up our hearts to love and closed our eyes to shame.

We've opened up a patience we can't fight
And closed our eyes to everything that's right
She won't agree to set me free still we get all the blame
We've opened up our hearts to love and closed our eyes to shame.

We've opened up a patience we can't fight
And closed our eyes to everything that's right
We're victims of forbidden love we play a losin' game
We've opened up our hearts to love and closed our eyes to shame...

After The Fire Is Gone lyrics - Conway Twitty

Love is where you find it,
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes,
After the fire is gone.

The bottle is almost empty;
The clock just now struck ten
Darling, I had to call you
To our favorite place again.

We know it's wrong for us to meet
But the fires gone out at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes,
After the fire is gone.

Love is where you find it,
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes,
After the fire is gone.

Your lips are warm and tender;
Your arms hold me just right
Sweet words of love you remember
That the one at home forgot.

Each time we say it's the last time,
But we keep hanging on
And there's nothing cold as ashes,
After the fire is gone.

Love is where you find it,
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes,
After the fire is gone...

Don't Tell Me You're Sorry lyrics - Conway Twitty

I'm sorry honey, that you walked in
And caught her in my lap
But it's not what you're thinking
So think before you slap.

I suppose you're weighin'
That little blonde that walked here in this bar
Ah, don't tell me you're sorry
'Cause I know how sorry you are.

I'm sorry that you think I'm drunk
I ain't had a drink today
Would you believe I held her just to see
How much she'd weighed.

That cheatin' look that's on your face
Is lit up like a star
So don't tell me you're sorry
'Cause I know how sorry you are.

Don't tell me you're sorry
But I'm as sorry as I can be
Well, you'd better move fast
And don't give me no sass
'Cause you belong to me.

Now honey, we ain't done nothing wrong
But I'm sorry it's gone this far
But don't tell me you're sorry
'Cause I know how sorry you are.

Don't tell me you're sorry
But I'm as sorry as I can be
Well, you'd better move fast
And don't give me no sass
'Cause you belong to me.

Now, wait a minute Loretta
You know how sorry I am
Conway you better believe I know
How sorry you are...

Pickin' Wild Mountain Berries lyrics - Conway Twitty

Where you been, where you been.
It's the same ole question again
What's the use baby, what's the use
They ain't never gonna turn us loose.

You got dirt all over your face
And your lipstick is way out of place
Oh, we gonna tell 'em
What we tell 'em every time before.

They won't leave us alone
They want us to come home
We been busy makin' merries
And pickin' wild mountain berries.

We're pickin' wild mountain berries
That's our excuse every time
We've been busy makin' merries
And pickin' wild mountain berries.

Conway, I don't know. Loretta, I don't know
If I can keep honey, from lettin' it show
What's our plan, tell me what's our plan
Now you know they won't understand.

If my hair is a drippin' wet
And my clothes are soakin' wet
And we didn't go skinny dippin'
In a cement pond.

You're my baby, you're my man,
And though your hair is sure gettin' to be a mess
And there ain't no berries in your bucket
Now we'll explain it honey, as best as we can.

They won't leave us alone
They want us to come home
We been a busy makin' merries
And pickin' wild mountain berries.

We're pickin' wild mountain berries
That's our excuse everytime
We been a busy makin' merries
And pickin' wild mountain berries...

One I Can't Live Without lyrics - Conway Twitty

You say I shouldn't be here, it's the same thing every night
You say I should go home to her, what we're doing just ain't right
It's true she's there waitin' and wonderin' there's no doubt
But she's the one you live with and you're the one I can't live without.

She's the one you live with but you're the one I can't live without
And she's the one you dream with but you're the one I dream about
They say I'm breaking up your home it's not a home it's just a house
She's still the one you live with but you're the one I can't live without.

If I knew you only lived there and your love for me was true
But how can I be certain you're not makin' me a fool
Surely you must kissin' who keep proof from findin' out
But she's the one you live with but you're the one I can't live without.

She's the one you live with but you're the one I can't live without
And she's the one you dream with but you're the one I dream about
They say I'm breaking up your home it's not a home it's just a house
She's still the one you live with but you're the one I can't live without...

Hangin' On lyrics - Conway Twitty

You've got me where you want me
You keep stringing me along
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on.
It's true you have me twisted around your finger
It seems that's where I belong
You know how to hold me thrill me and control me
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on.
Oh, just enough to keep me a hangin' on

My heart is like a yo-yo on a string
I'm tied to you right or wrong
My love keeps a growing
'Cause your love keeps a showing
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on.
Oh, just enough to keep me a hangin' on.

A love that's strong as mine
Will make me do most anything
Like hiding tears and heartaches
And dreaming silly dreams.

You've got me where you want me
you keep stringing me along
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on.
Oh, just enough to keep me a hangin' on...

"Lead Me On" (1971)

Lead Me On lyrics - Conway Twitty

Once I made a promise
That I'd never, lead you on
But I feel, a yearn to love you
Even though I know it's wrong.

You'll have, to take my hand
And lead me slowly through this door.
I'll be wrong, in what I'm doin'
I can't refuse you anymore.

Lead me on, and take control of how I feel
I can't do this on my own
'Cause it's against my will
I need love, warm and tender
In a way I've never known
If you want me I'll go with you,
But you'll have to lead me on

Lead me on, and take control of how I feel
I can't do this on my own
'Cause it's against my will
But I need love, warm and tender
In a way I've never known
If you want me I'll go with you,
But you'll have to lead me on...

When I Turn Off My Light lyrics - Conway Twitty

Let's forget unpleasent memories let them lie there in the past
Make believe here in my arms is where you belong
Yes I need you to love me each night when I'm alone
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on.

I return the love she gives me till you mem'ry gets so strong
I exist in a house where I don't feel at home
How can love feel so right and still feel so wrong
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on.
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on.

Then I turn and reach for you and again find you're gone
But you stay with her she loves you and she's never done you wrong
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on
Still when I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on...

Never Ending Song Of Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've got a never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd have a never ending love for you.

After all this time of being alone
We can love one another
Feel for each other from now on
Feel so good I can hardly stand it.

Never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd sing my never ending song of love for you.

After all this time of being alone
We can love one another
Feel for each other from now on
Feel so good I can hardly stand it.

Never ending love for you
From now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew
I'd sing my never ending song of love for you.

I'd sing my never ending song of love for you...

Playing House Away From Home lyrics - Conway Twitty

I left our hometown for the weekend
On a big business deal
And I would close behind you
My excuse is sharp and drill.
My only business is our pleasure
And I don't bother things I won't

'Cause we're playing house away from home
We're playing house away from home
Our names and faces are unknown
Everyone thinks that we're man and wife
We even wear our wedding rings
and we don't try to hide this thing
'Cause we're playing house away from home.

We'll get up in the morning
I'll go my way and I'll go mine
And go home to act like strangers
And hope no one can tell
That we have left all the bills from actin' right and doin' wrong
'Cause we're playing house away from home

We're playing house away from home
We're playing house away from home
Our names and faces are unknown
Everyone thinks that we're man and wife
We even wear our wedding rings
and we don't try to hide this thing
'Cause we're playing house away from home.

Yes, we're playing house away from home...

You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well you're the reason I'm ridin around on big-capped tires
And you're the reason I'm hangin our clothes outside on wires

And you're the reason our kids are ugly, little darlin'
Oh but looks ain't everything
And money ain't everything
But I love you just the same

Well you're the reason I changed to beer from soda pop
And you're the reason I never get to go to the beauty shop
I guess that we won't ever have, everything we need
Cuz when we get ahead, it's got a double mouth to feed

And that's the reason my good looks, and my figure is gone
And that's the reason that I ain't got no hair to comb

Conway, why in the devil don't you go and shave,
or put on clean pair of pants?
But Loretta, look at yourself. I wish you'd take
them curlers outta your hair and go put on a little
make-up and get outta that housecoat before supper.
Well let me tell you somethin' Conway. Considering everything that
I went through today, I look like a movie star.
Yeah, Ruth Buzzley.
Thank you.
Besides that, all of our kids took after your part of the family anyways.
Oh they did, hunh? What about the ones that's bald?
Well I guess you could say they took after me.

How Far Can We Go lyrics - Conway Twitty

Oh, how far can we go,
You and me doin' this?

We're doin' the things that only sinners do
But I can't keep my mind off of you
We made a mistake one night and didn't quit
So how far can we go, you and me doin' this?

We're strangers by day and lovers by night
And I feel like a thief when I hold you tight
The ring on my finger shows that I'm still his
So how far can we go, you and me doin' this?

Lovin' like there's no tomorrow or past
We're takin' the backroad, go and go out fast
The ring on my finger shows that I'm still his
So how far can we go, you and me doin' this?

So how far can we go, you and me me
And you everyday all the time doin' this?..

You Blow My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, I used think the color of love would be a rosy red or a pretty pink
And I thought it would be a thirsty man crawlin' home to get a big old drink
And I thought love was spelled like a bell B-E-double L bell that you ring
Stead of wham bam hit your man with a pan
Hit him on the head hear the birdies sing.

Oh, you heart breakin' love makin' cut me-a-piece-of-bacon man of mine
And you money shiftin' flour siftin' nose liftin' rose of woman kind
Just keep on doin' what you're doin' and what you're doin' suits me just fine
And love I tell you somethin' else you blow my mind.

Well, I used to think the color of love would be a soft green like a pea in a pod
And I thought love would strike like a light flashin' down a big old lightnin' rod
And I thought love was spelled W-E-double L well that would never run dry
Instead of choke choke I'm so broke and dry I can't afford a little bitty tear to cry.

Oh, you money turnin' egg churnin' butter burnin' baby of mine
You half crazy lean and lazy pretty as a wilted daisy man of mine
Just keep on doin' what you're doin' and what you're doin' suits me just fine
And love I tell you somethin' else you blow my mind.

You blow my mind, you blow my mind,
You blow my mind, you blow my mind...

Easy Lovin' lyrics - Conway Twitty

Easy lovin', so sexy lookin',
I know from the feelin',
It comes from the heart.
Easy lovin', everyday's things givin',
To count on my blessin's,
I wouldn't know where to start.

Every time I look you over
So real to life it seems
Mhm, Upon your pretty shoulders
There's a pair of angel wings.

Easy lovin', seein's believin',
Life with you is like livin',
In a beautiful dream.

Every time I look you over
So real to life it seems
Upon your pretty shoulders
There's a pair of angel wings.

Easy lovin', seein's believin',
Life with you is like livin',
In a beautiful dream.

Easy lovin'...

Back Street Affair lyrics - Conway Twitty

You didn't know I wasn't free
When you fell in love with me
And with all your young heart, you learned to care
It brought you shame and disgrace
The world has tumbled in your face
Because they call our love a back street affair.

They say you wrecked my home
I'm a husband that's gone wrong
They don't know the sorrow that we've had to bear
For the one that I'm tied to
Was the first to be untrue
And yet they call our love a back street affair.

We have each other now
That's all that matters anyhow
For the judgement of gossip's never fair
We'll just be brave and strong
Then some day they'll see they're wrong
So let 'em call our love a back street affair.

We'll be free to love someday
When all the talk has died away
And the happiness we hoped for then we'll share
I'll climb a mountain high
And then the world can hear me cry
That our love's not a back street affair...

I Wonder If You Told Her About Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

And I wonder if you told her,
And I wonder if you told her about me?

Oh hello, fancy meetin' you
The girl you have with you sure looks sweet
But does she know you're talking to you're old used to be
And I wonder if you told her
Yes, I wonder if you told her about me?

It sure is good to see you, it's been a long long time
Don't think it's foolish of me if I weep
I just can't hide the power of, so many memories
And I wonder if you told her
Yes, I wonder if you told her about me?

Now I can see she loves you and you can see it too
She's got you on her mind constantly
But does she know the reason why I set her free
And I wonder if you told her
Yes, I wonder if you told her about me?

The party's almost over but let me say before I'd go
I'm glad at last you found your destiny
I told her that you love her and held her tenderly
And I wonder if you told her
Yes, I wonder if you told her about me?..

Get Some Loving Done lyrics - Conway Twitty

I gotta get up and get some loving done
My life's so poor, ain't been much fun
I found myself a woman and I know she's the one
And I gotta get up and get me some loving done.

I've been doin' without a good thing much too long
But you taught me to sing a brand new song
When I look at me I see a brand new different me
Let's gonna get up and get some loving done.
Yeah, I've gotta get up...

Well, you know how to treat me like a woman
And satisfy my needs, 'cause you're all man
When I look at you I see it all belongs to me
So, I'm gonna get up and get some loving done.

Get up and get some loving done
Our life's a gonna be a life more fun
Yeah, I found myself a good man
And he sure do turn me on.

We're gonna get up and get some loving done
Get up and get some loving done...

"I Wonder What She'll Think About Me Leaving" (1971)

I Wonder What She'll Think About Me Leaving lyrics - Conway Twitty

I wonder what she'll think about me leaving
I wonder if she'll even know I'm gone.

I wonder what she'll think about my leaving
Wish I could be there hidden if she cries
'Cause leaving really won't be worth my trouble
If I can't see the teardrops fill her eyes.

Wish I could be there standing by her window
When she finds the note about me being gone
I'm almost sure her coldness never changes
But still I'd like to know it if I'm wrong.

I wonder what she'll think about me leaving
I'd like to see her standing all alone
If she hurts at all I'd like to know it happened
I wonder if she'll even know I'm gone.

I wonder if she'll notice that I'm gone...

Wine Me Up lyrics - Conway Twitty

I'm the center of attention in this barroom
'Cause I've got the biggest heartache of the year
And each night those swinging doors
Reach out for me and draw me in
'Cause they know each night that
I'll come back to wine me up again.

Wine me up turn me on and watch me cry for you
Lately drinking warm red wine is all I wanna do
And I never know how tight, I'll wine me up 'til I walk in
But I don't care 'cause I'll be back to wine me up again.

I'd like to thank to men who raised the grapes in California
And I'm hoping this will be their biggest year
'Cause scarlet water's all that's left to keep me hanging on
And that's why I'll try to wine me up each day and night next year.

Wine me up turn me on and watch me cry for you
Lately drinking warm red wine is all I wanna do
And I never know how tight I'll wine me up 'til I walk in
But I don't care 'cause I'll be back to wine me up again...

I'd Rather Love You lyrics - Conway Twitty

If tonight should be our last night together
I'm not sorry that we fell in love at all
And if tomorrow sun should find me hurtin' for you I know
That the price for loving you would still be small.

For I'd never know the thrill of your sweet lips
And the chills I get just knowing that you're mine
'Cause I'd spend my life just knowing what real love is
Oh no, Though I'd be hurtin' I'm still certain
That I'd rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all.

For I'd never know the thrill of your sweet lips
And the chills I get just knowing that you're mine
'Cause I'd spend my life just knowing what real love is
Oh no, Though I'd be hurtin' I'm still certain
That I'd rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all...

My Heart Won't Listen To My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

I woke up this morning
To a world that's all wrong
And suddenly remembered
You're gone.

I tried hard to forget you
But there's no way I find
My heart won't listen
To my mind.

I cried a river of teardrops
Got a heart full of ache
I never learned to give all
I knew would fake.

So I took the love you gave me
Then left you behind
My heart won't listen
To my mind.

So I'll hold to your mem'ry
That's all I can do
And relieve each moment
Spent with you,

And in my darkest hour
There's no measure of time
My heart won't listen
To my mind.

I cried a river of teardrops
Got a heart full of ache
I never learned to give all
I knew would fake.

So I took the love you gave me
Then left you behind
My heart won't listen
To my mind...

I Fall To Pieces lyrics - Conway Twitty

I fall to pieces each time I see you again
I fall to pieces how can I be just your friend
You want me to act like we've never kissed
You want me to forget pretend we've never met
But I've tried, I've tried I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces.

You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who'll love me too the way you used to do
But I've tried, I've tried but I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces...

Heartaches Just Walked In lyrics - Conway Twitty

Sittiin' in a dim cafe listenin' while the jukebox play
The songs I like to hear when I'm alone
Thinkin' of my wasted past wonderin' if someday at last
I win the sweetest love I've ever known.

Then all at once I saw her arm in arm with my best friend
Heartbreak can't be far away
'Cause heartaches just walked in
I watched her as she smiled at him
And though the tiny lights were dim

I could see the love light shining in her eyes
With aching heart and trembling hand
I stood and watched another man
Hold the girl I wanted for my wife.

And as the teardrops started
I thought of things that might have been
Heartbreak can't be far away
'Cause heartaches just walked in

And then my poor heart skipped a beat
She took the table next to me
She didn't even notice I was there
She looked around and just by chance
Our eyes met in a casual glance

She smiled and it was more than I could bare
How could she know the way I feel
to her I'm just a friend
Heartbreak can't be far away
'Cause heartaches just walked in...

Joy To The World lyrics - Conway Twitty

Jerry Miles was a bullfrog
He was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him drink his wine.

Everybody now joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the big blue sea
I said joy to you and me.

If I was a king of the world
I tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the cars and the bars
and the wars and make sweet love to you.

Let me hear now joy to the world...

You know I love a lady
I love to have my fun
I'm a high night flyer and a rainbow rider
And a straight shootin' son of a gun.

Everybody now joy to the world...
And we go now joy to the world...
A little higher joy to the world...
One more time now joy to the world...
People's goin' now joy to the world...

Who'll Turn Out The Lights lyrics - Conway Twitty

I wonder who'll turn out the lights in your world tonight
Whose shoulder will your head be restin' on
Does your hungry arms reach for someone you feel you need
Will the need still be there when he's gone.

As I reach for the switch that turns out my lights
I wonder who'll turn out the lights in your world tonight
Has someone found a secret that I couldn't find
Is he touching that old switch that I've touched so many times.

Is he turning on the woman
I could never satisfy
I wonder who'll turn out the lights
in your world tonight?

Has someone found a secret that I couldn't find
Is he touching that old switch that I've touched so many times.

Is he turning on the woman
I could never satisfy
I wonder who'll turn out the lights
in your world tonight?...

Letter And A Ring lyrics - Conway Twitty

I came home this morning,
I looked around
I called out to my darling
But not a sound.

And there upon the table
By an old love magazine
Was a letter from my baby
And a golden wedding ring.

The table told a story,
I can't forget
A half a cup of coffee
And a half smoked cigarette.

I could see she'd waited,
Hoping I'd come home
But some coffee and the cigarette
Told me that she was gone.

I opened up the letter
And read the tear-stained lines
My world for me was ending
Right before my eyes.

She said, "I set you free now
Go long and have your fling."
And all my baby left me
Was a letter and a ring.

(Was a letter and a ring)...

One More Time lyrics - Conway Twitty

Mistakes, I have made them
And you don't know how much I hate them
But that's me and I don't guess I'll ever change
And I don't mean to hurt you
Heaven knows I hate to hurt you.

But here I am to ask forgiveness one more time
(One more time) One more time I'll ask you to forgive me
(One more time) I'll come crawling back to you
All I ask is a chance to show just how much I love you.

Won't you please take me back one more time
(One more time) and one more time I'll tell you that I'm sorry
(But this time) I'll get down on bended knee
And I'll cry and beg forgiveness
Please give me your forgiveness.

Won't you please take me back one more time...
(one more time)

My Love For You Is Stronger lyrics - Conway Twitty

Darling, my love for you is stronger than the weakness in me.

It's hard to understand the weakness in a man
To a woman who's love is true it's hard to see
Why sometimes man will stray well darling I must say
My love for you is strong than the weakness in me.

When a man's all alone his weakness then is strong
And that's just how my life used to be
Now I don't hear temptations call it's just not worth it all
My love for you is strong than the weakness in me.

Darling, my love for you is strong than the weakness in me
That's how it's been and how it's gonna be
Just as long as I have your sweet love to lean on you see
My love for you is strong than the weakness in me

Darling, my love for you is strong than the weakness in me...
