Just Between the Two of Us Lyrics

Merle Haggard, Bonnie Owens

Just between the two of us, we know our love is gone
People think it’s wonderful our love can be so true
You never say an angry word no matter what I do
And you have so much faith in me you trust me anywhere
But the reason if they only knew is that we just don’t care

Just between the two of us, let’s give up this fantasy
For we no longer care enough to even disagree
Everybody envies us and the way we get along
But just between the two of us, we know our love is gone

Wish we could go back again to days that used to be
We fought a lot but even then I knew you cared for me
Now we get along so well no teardrops ever fall
But there’s no love, no anything, there’s nothing left at all

Just between the two of us, let’s give up this fantasy
For we no longer care enough to even disagree
Everybody envies us and the way we get along
But just between the two of us, we know our love is gone

In Alan Jackson, Country Music

This is a very memorable Father and Daughter duet from Country Superstar Alan Jackson singing with his daughter Ali Jackson Bradshaw. Alan Jackson wrote “You’ll Always Be My Baby (Written for Daughters’ Weddings)” several years ago for a very special occasion. They performed live at their hometown show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Friday, Oct. 8, 2021. In an interview, Alan said: “I wrote the song for Mattie’s wedding the summer of 2017, but it was so hard to do. I told ’em, ‘I wrote this for all of you.’” Enjoy!

About Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson was born in the small town of Newnan, Georgia, on October 17, 1958. He grew up singing gospel music, both in church and at home with his family. As a teenager, he performed locally as part of a country duo. He left school to work and married his high-school sweetheart, Denise, who worked as an airline stewardess. In 1989, Jackson became the first artist signed to Arista’s new country division. Jackson’s debut album, Here in the Real World, was issued in 1990. It became a platinum-selling hit on the strength of four Top Five hits. He also released “Chasin’ That Neon Rainbow,” “Wanted,” and “I’d Love You All Over Again.” He shot to full-fledged superstardom with the follow-up, 1991’s Don’t Rock the Jukebox. This song was number one smash that year. Jackson’s many industry awards include the CMA award for entertainer of the year in 1995, 2002, and 2003. In addition, he was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2017.

You’ll Always Be My Baby (Written for Daughters’ Weddings)

Alan Jackson

First steps, first words
Seems like yesterday you were just a girl
Skinned knees, climbing trees
All those memories so close to me

Now you’re a woman on your own
All in love and nearly gone

But you’ll always be my baby
No matter where you are
You’ll always be my baby
Forever in my heart16, first car
21 and there’s a broken heart
High heels, strong will
In my eyes I see a young child still

But you’re a woman on your own
All in love and nearly gone

But you’ll always be my baby
No matter where you are
You’ll always be my baby
Forever in my heart

So I say a prayer every day
That God will guide you as you find your way
You know that I’m near
Anytime my love is always here

‘Cause you’ll always be my baby
No matter where you are
You’ll always be my baby
Forever in my heart…
