Had It Not Been You

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
The girl's wouldn't look anything like they doCan't imagine my life without dresses and shoesOr never taking a sunset from a front porch swingOr make any sense of the pleasure love bringsI'd been alone for sureHad it not been youI wouldn't reach for your armsWhen my dreams don't come trueNever sit holding handsOn a crowded church pewI wouldn't smile when my fingers run through your hairOr laugh when we race to the top of the stairsI'd get old for sureHad it not been youYou know there are timesThat I can't wait to pick up the phoneWhen you're callin'And the three little voicesThat always chime in right alongWhen we're talkin'Oh I never would see throughEyes of truthAnd my heartWould have overlookedA view that some just talk ofAnd never findIn a lifetimeIt's hard to describeIn just words how I feelWhen I hold stand beside youBut I make it knownIt's just time that I killWhen I'm alone and without youI will love all through the nightIf you love meAs long as I wake up each morningI'll know I'm the only one aroundFor a lifetimeI'd never have taken in a sunset from the front porch swingOr make any sense of the pleasure love bringsI'd been alone for sureHad it not been you
