The Love You Gave Songtext
von Dolly Parton

(Sweet) sweet were the lips that kissed me
(Warm) warm were the arms that held me
(Sweet) sweet were the lips, yeah
(Warm) warm were the arms
(Warm) but so, so filled with the love you gave me

(Wet) wet were the tears on my face
(Long) long were the hours I cried them
(Wet) wet were the tears, yeah
(Long) long were the hours
(Long) but so, so filled with the love you gave me


(Ah)
My friends tried to tell me
That mis′ry would a-happen to me
(Ah-ah-a)
But back in school I didn't believe
That misery and pain a-would-a ever get to me, oh
(Since) since you′ve been gone, gone away
(I cry) cry lonely teardrops night and day
(Since) since you've been gone, yeah
(I cry) I cry lonely teardrops
(Ah-ah-a)
All so, so filled with the love you gave me
(Sweet) sweet were the lips that kissed me
(Warm) warm were the arms that held me
(Sweet)
