The Ties That Bind Lyrics
Song by Don Williams
Knowin’, you stand by me
Through good and bad
Makes all the difference, in my life
Day by day, sweetheart I find
These are the ties, that bind
The little things you do, that please me so
Oh, the way you always understand
When simple joys, bring peace of mind
These are the ties, that bind
You’re all I need, to see me through
Can I say more, than this my love?
I live just, for your kiss my love
And I live, for your kiss my love
Forever, and a day, my love will live
Oh, the flame of love will never die
So heart and soul, please say you’re mine
Held by the ties, that bind
