Peanuts And Diamonds And Other Jewels lyrics

Your love blows me away like a breeze blows across the meadow

Like a trade wind blows across the bay your love blows me away

Your love shows me a world most men have never seen or dreamed of

Your love brings me a song no one else could ever sing a song of sweet love

Loving you takes my breath away till there's nothing left to say

Unless I could say hey your love blows me away...

Sunday morning in the valley we would gather for the service

You would always run to meet me you'd smile at papa kinda nervous

All the people came from miles around and I can still hear the sound
As they sang thanks to the Lord for the sun up in the sky

For the corn that's growin' high and for the child that didn't die

Thanks to the Lord for the crops and for the farm

How did a cowboy in rough outs and wranglers end up in New York alone

When does the next plane take off for Dallas sweet Texas I'm coming home

For the love of my homeland is deeper than even the cold snow that lies at my feet
There's a big rodeo out in San Angelo somebody save me a seat

So poor me a cool one play Ernest Tubb on the jukebox sweet Texas

High a top a mountain lookin' down to Panga Canyon

I came to see the blue pacific in the night

The stars are like a miollion dancin' diamods on the water

And my lover's arms're wrapped around me tight
And almost empty bottle of rose sits on the table

Like the echo of a sweet and gentle song

I never stop and wonder why I came to California

But I often wonder why I took so long

Let me whisper darling one more time let the soft curves of your body cling to mine

Let me feel you through and through I can't get enough of you
Let me whisper darling oner more time

Everytime I hold you it gets harder to let you go and get you off my mind

Stay with me and let me take you farther and higher than you've ever dared to climb

As I lay here by my woman I know I'm back where I belong again

I can't help but think about you though and all the things that might've been

But we used commonsense to work it out we quit before the word got out
We hurt each other stead of hurtin' all the rest

But why'd the last time have to be the best

Why'd the last time have to be the time the time we made our poem rhyme

You're a thousand miles away from me tonight and Lord I miss you so

You could be in someone else's arms right now and I would never know

But I'll go lay me down to sleep and never let it cross my mind
Cause I love you and you love me and our love is that rare and special kind

We've got it all we've got it all there's nothing else I could need we've got it all

Hi honey I'm workin' late again tonight yeah I just called so you'd know

Liars one believers zero

Hello baby can I buy you a drink am I married haha heavens no
Liars two believers zero

I see the look in her eyes and I know that she believes

Before the night is over she'll give herself to me

I'll hold her close and I'll kiss her lips tell her I love her so

Liars three believers zero

On the poor side of Fort Worth in a rundown motel

A rodeo cowboy held a young Texas belle

He scooped up some peanuts right out of the can
And he whispered as he placed them in the palm of her hand

Baby I wish they were diamonds and this was north Dallas

And I wish oh I wish you were mine oh I wish Lord I wish you were mine

[ piano ]

On the north side of Dallas in a forty roomed house
