Make Way for Willie Nelson lyrics

What now my love now that you've left me how can I live through another day

Watching my dreams turn into ashes and my hopes into bits of clay
Once I could see once I could feel now I am numb I've become unreal

I walk the night oh without a goal stripped of my heart and my soul

What now my love now that it's over I feel the world closing in on me

If it's wrong to love you wrong I'll always be

And though the world may scorn me darling can't you see
If it's wrong to want you when my day is through

Gladly I will pay for all my dreams of you

And though we met too late dear and you'll never know

That without a right to I have loved you so

I can't change my heart now you're a part of me

If you can truthfully say that
You've been true just one day
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
And if you can look into my eyes
One time without telling lies
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
Why do I keep loving you after all
The things you do
And just one time come into my arms
And be glad that you're in my arms

You taught me how to love with all my heart with all my soul I trusted you

And now you say we'll have to live apart a thing I don't know how to do
You said someday I'd find somebody new and I'll have not one regret

But stay a while if what you say is true stay and teach me to forget

[ piano ]

You taught me how to worship you alone and now you say you'll have to go

Have I told you lately that I love you could I tell you once again somehow

Have I told you how with all my heart and soul I need you
Well darling I'm telling you now

My heart would break in two if I should lose you I'm no good without you anyhow

Have I told you lately that I love you well darling I'm telling you now

[ steel - guitar ]

Give me talkin' now you tried to make her happy you couldn't make her happy

Make way for a better man than you

You tried your brand of lovin' she couldn't stand your lovin'
Make way for a better man than you

I held back cause you and I were friends

But old buddy this is where our friendship ends

I'm takin' over now those signals she keeps sendin' means your romance is endin'

Have I stayed away too long have I stayed away too long

If I came home tonight would you still be my darling or have I stayed away too long
The love light that shone so strong sweet love light that shone so strong

If I came home tonight would that same light be shining

Or have I stayed away too long

I'm just outside of town and I'll soon be at your door

I'll never understand dear as long as I live I guess I will always wonder why

You told me that you loved me with all of your heart
And then without a warning said goodbye

The lovin' lies that I believed and now how I grieved

You didn't mean it from the start and you told me lovin' lies and broke my heart

[ steel ]

You say I'll soon forget you and find someone new

Some other world has all the sunshine cause there's no sunshine in mine
Out of the darkness came thunder and rain leavin' my dreams all in vain
Some other world there sleeps my darlin' there where the skies are always blue
Why don't they take me out of this world and let me find my sunshine with you
[ steel ]
Some other world there sleep...

I'm born to lose I've lived my life in vain every dream has only brought me pain
All my life I've always been so blue born to lose and now I'm losing you

Born to lose it seems so hard to bear how I long to always have you near

You've grown tired and now you say we're through born to lose and now I'm losing you

[ dobro ]

I cried and cried my heart out but what good does it do

Crying never bothers anyone so cold as you
I've thought the whole thing over and now I'll go and find

A beeter place where angels heal broken hearts like mine

You made me live you made me love and now you'll make me die

I'll never live or love again there's no need now to try
