From the jump, I never thought I had the right voice for this. Tried get a few people to sing it for me (notably Jul Big Green, Mark Bennardo, and even Bryan Duncan but nothing really worked out.
So I just done it my dern self.
Probably the only bonafide love song I've ever been able to pull off. It's about being too busy.
lyrics
Driving home it takes a while,
Greet you with a smile
We never seem to have the time
I'm a happy man
And when we kiss the world just stops
Living up the love we're holding in our hearts
Now look at me I forgot myself
You been outside 'n you got some sun.
And look you got your nails done
You're my number one
And I love you
The day gets away and I have to say
I love to be with you
***
Our love is strong
We been thru a lot
That's what we got to show
And in the middle of the night
When worries of the world creep in
Knowing you are there is all I need
And how I've tried
My head gets big and I talk so tough.
You stay with me thru all my stuff.
It never seems enough.
And I love you
The day slips away but I got to say
I love my life with you
