Maybe Baby lyrics - Conway Twitty

Maybe baby, I'll have you
Maybe baby, you'll be true
Maybe baby, I'll have you for me (All for me)
It's funny honey you don't care
You never listen to my prayer
Maybe baby you will love me someday (Someday)
Well, you are the one (You're the one) that makes me glad (You're the one)
And you are the one (You're the one) that makes me sad (You're the one)
When someday (You're the one) you want me (You're the one)
Well, I'll be there, wait and see
Maybe baby, I'll have you
Maybe baby, you'll be true
Maybe baby, I'll have you for me (All for me)

Well, you are the one (You're the one) that makes me glad (You're the one)
And you are the one (You're the one) that makes me sad (You're the one)
When someday (You're the one) you want me (You're the one)
Well, I'll be there, wait and see
Maybe baby, I'll have you
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)

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...
