When the rain came I thought youd leave cause I knew how much you loved the sun But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm Through the darkest nights Ive ever known If the mandolin wind couldnt change a thing Then I know I love ya
Oh the snow fell without a break Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years I couldnt believe you kept a smile Now I can rest assured knowing that weve seen the worst And I know I love ya
Oh I never was good with romantic words So the next few lines come really hard Dont have much but what Ive got is yours Except of course my steel guitar Ha, cause I know you dont play But Ill teach you one day Because I love ya
I recall the night we knelt and prayed Noticing your face was thin and pale I found it hard to hide my tears I felt ashamed I felt Id let you down No mandolin wind couldnt change a thing Couldnt change a thing no, no
The coldest winter in almost fourteen years Could never, never change your mind
And I love ya Yes indeed and I love ya And I love ya Lordy I love ya
Yet another website I stumbled across that I sure hope is a joke - if only for the eye comment.
