Feels So Right Lyrics

Song by Alabama

Whisper to me softly
Breathe words upon my skin
No one’s near and listening
So please don’t say goodbye
Just hold me close and love me
Press your lips to mine
Mmm feels so right, feels so right

Lying here beside you
I hear the echoes of your sighs
Promise me you’ll stay with me
And keep me warm tonight
So hold me close and love me
Give my heart a smile
Mmm feels so right, feels so right

Your body feels so gentle
And my passion rises high
You’re loving me so easy
Your wish is my command
Just hold me close and love me
Tell me it won’t end
Mmm feels so right, feels so right

Feels so right

Ah, you feel so right baby

Slow Hand Lyrics

Song by Conway Twitty

As the midnight moon was drifting through
The lazy sway of the trees
I saw the look in your eyes looking into the night
Not seeing what you wanted to see

Darling, don’t say a word I’ve already heard
What your body is saying to mine
You’re tired of fast moves
You got a slow groove on your mind

You want a man with a slow hand
You want a lover with an easy touch
You want somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
Baby, believe me I understand
When it comes to love you want a slow hand

Moon shadowed ground with no one around
And a blanket of stars in our eyes
Hey, we’re drifting free like two losties
On the crazy wind of the night

Darling don’t say a word I’ve already heard
What your body is saying to mine
If you want all night you know it’s alright
I’ve got time

You’ve got a man with a slow hand
You’ve got a lover with an easy touch
You’ve got somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
Baby, believe me I understand
When it comes to love you want a slow hand

You want a lover with an easy touch
You’ve got somebody who will spend some time with you, baby
Not come and go in a heated rush
Baby, believe me I understand

I’d Love to Lay You Down Lyrics

Song by Conway Twitty

There’s a lot of ways of sayin’ what I want to say to you
There’s songs and poems and promises and dreams that might come true
But I won’t talk of starry skies or moonlight on the ground
I’ll come right out and tell you I’d just love to lay you down

Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear
I’ll let you know how much it means just havin’ you around
Oh darlin’, how I’d love to lay you down

There’s so many ways your sweet love made this house into a home
You’ve got a way of doin’ little things that turn me on
Like standin’ in the kitchen in your faded cotton gown
With your hair all up in curlers, I’d still love to lay ya down

Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear
I’ll let you know how much it means just havin’ you around
Oh darlin’, how I’d love to lay you down

When a whole lot of Decembers are showin’ in your face
Your auburn hair has faded and silver takes its place
You’ll be just as lovely, and I’ll still be around
And if I can, I know that I’d still love to lay you down

Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear
Lay ya down and tell you all the things a woman loves to hear
I’ll let you know how much it means just havin’ you around
Oh darlin’, how I’d love to lay you down

Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear
Lay ya down and tell you all the things my woman loves to hear
I’ll let you know how much it means just havin’ you around
Oh darlin’, how I’d love to lay you down

Lay ya down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear
Lay ya down and tell you all the things my woman loves to hear
I’ll let you know how much it means just havin’ you around
Oh darlin’, how I’d love to lay you down

Don’t Take It Away Lyrics

Song by Conway Twitty

I been lookin’ for you all night long, darlin’
You’ve got to talk to me
I wanna tell you how wrong I’ve been
And I won’t do it again

You know that woman didn’t mean a thing to me
I hope, I don’t embarrass you too much
Here in front of all your friends
I’m gonna get down on my knees

Please, let me make it
Please, I can’t give you up
‘Cause you made love
So good for me so long

Don’t take it away
‘Cause love don’t come easy
Darlin’, I’m sorry
I stepped over the line

Don’t take it away
Don’t make me go crazy
‘Cause I would follow you
To the ends of my mind

From now on
I’m gonna be the kind of man
That you can lean on

And when the waters of life
Get a little too rough or a little too deep
I’m gonna be your steppin’ stone

And oh, I remember all those nights
That you used to take right a hold of me
And you’d hold on

Please, let me make it
Please, I can’t give you up
‘Cause you’ve made love
So good for me so long

Don’t take it away
‘Cause love don’t come easy
Darlin’, I’m sorry
I stepped over the line

Don’t take it away
Don’t make me go crazy
‘Cause I would follow you
To the ends of my mind

After The Fire Has Gone Lyrics

Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there’s nothin’ cold as ashes
After the fire is goneThe bottle is almost empty
The clock just now struck ten
Darlin’ I had to call you
To our favorite place again

We know it’s wrong for us to meet
But the fire’s gone out at home
And there’s nothin’ cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there’s nothin’ 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 is the last time
But we keep hangin’ on
And there’s nothin’ cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there’s nothin’ cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

Don’t Cry Joni Lyrics

Conway Twitty, Joni Lee

Jimmy please say you’ll wait for me
I’ll grow up someday you’ll see
Savin’ all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

Joni was the girl who lived next door
I’ve known her I guess 10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say

Jimmy please say you’ll wait for me
I’ll grow up someday you’ll see
Savin’ all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her teardrops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say

Joni, Joni, please don’t cry
You’ll forget me by and by
You’re just fifteen I’m twenty two
Joni I just can’t wait for you

Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But her words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me
Jimmy please say you’ll wait for me
I’ll grow up someday you’ll see
Savin’ all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

I packed my clothes and I caught a plane
I had to see Joni, I had to explain
How my heart was filled with her memory
And ask my Joni if she’d marry me

I ran all the way to the house next door
But things weren’t like they were before
My teardrops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say

Jimmy Jimmy please don’t cry
You’ll forget me by and by
It’s been five years since you’ve been gone
Jimmy I married your best friend John.

Time Has Made a Change in Me Lyrics

Song by The Oak Ridge Boys

Time has made a change
Since my childhood days
Many of my friends have gone away
Some I never more in this life will see
Time has made a change in me

Time has made a change in the old home place
Time has made a change in each smiling face
And I know my friends can plainly see
That time has made a change in me

In my childhood days I was well and strong
I could climb the hill sides all day long
I am not today what I used to be
‘Cause time has made a change in me

When I reach my home in that land somewhere
With my friends who wait to
Meet me over there
Free from pain and care I’ll forever be
Since time has made a change in m

Some Broken Hearts Never Mend Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

Coffee black, cigarettes
Start this day like all the rest
First thing every morning that I do
Is start missing you

Some broken hearts never mend
Some memories never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die

Rendezvous in the night
A willing woman to hold me tight
But in the middle of love’s embrace
I see your face

Some broken hearts never mend
Some memories never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die

Some broken hearts never mend
Some memories never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die

New San Antonio Rose Lyrics

Song by Johnny Cash

Deep within my heart lies a melody
A song of old San Antone
Where in dreams I live with a memory
Beneath the stars all alone
It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
A moonlit pass that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendor know only my heart
Call back my rose, rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling apart
Speak once again of my love, my own.
Broken song, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit pass by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone
Deep within my heart lies a melody,
A song of old San Antone
Where in dreams I live with a memory
Beneath the stars all alone
It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
A moonlit pass that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendor know only my heart
Call back my rose, rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling apart
Speak once again of my love, my own.
Broken song, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit pass by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone
