NOT LONG AGO
Sometimes, when the world around me,
relents and gives me peace of mind,
all my thoughts are upon you,
and things you did not long ago.
Always gave, never hurt me
though sometimes I know I let you down.
But each time I failed to measure,
in your eyes you loved me just the same.
I recall those days gone by
when you held my hand; combed my hair.
All those memories will live forever
in my heart and in my mind.
I thank God for what he did for me:
Put his love and tender care in you.
Then wrote the plan,
which locked us hand-in-hand;
gave time and place for love to grow.
So, sometimes, when the world around me,
relents and gives me peace of mind,
all my thoughts are upon you
and things you did not long ago.
"Luv ya', momma."

"THE LOVIN' TIME"
The lovin's not all the reason
that I'm staying here with you;
not just the way you smile,
nor comb your hair.
Not just the way you love me
when I'm here, dear, with you.
But includes the way you are
when I'm not there.
Many times, I must go 'way and
leave you here all alone;
but you know my love's with you,
I won't be gone for long.
Thoughts of you bring happiness
and ease my mind.
'Cause I know that you'll be home
come the lovin' time.
CHORUS
The lovin' time is the right time
when you make my dreams come true.
And any time is the right time,
'long as I'm here, dear, with you.
It's the lovin' you give
which keeps me thinking
dear of you;
each day that I'm away from you.
And all the joys I see
as I drive along each day,
make me sad
'til I can share them with you, too.
Chorus
'long as I'm here, dear, with you. Here, dear, with you.
