WE USED TO

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
We used to walk the fields of green we used to sit by clear blue stream
We used to be so happy me and you
We used to do such silly things we used to make love in the rain
We used to yes we used to

Then you went away leaving me with the mem'ries remain
Momories of those sweet yesterdays spent with you spent with you
And even though you're gone I still think so often of you
And the things that we no longer do like we used to oh we used to

We used to be so much in love we used to kiss and hold and touch
We used to find so many things to do
We used to laugh and plan and dream we used to own the world it seemed
We used to yes we used to

Then you went away leaving me...

LOVE I USED TO CALL MINE

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
As gentle as soft breezes blowing as warm as the summer sunshine
As sweet as the dew on the roses was the love I used to call mine

Sweet memories keep on holding revealing the past in my mind
But my arms are no longer holding the love I used to call mine

Gone are the soft gentle breezes and gone is the warm summer sunshine
And gone like the dew on the roses is the love that I used to call mine

Sweet memories keep on holding revealing the past in my mind
Some other arms are now holding the love I used to call mine
The love that I used to call mine

MY HEART STARTED BREAKING

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
Love can make you feel just like you own the world
Or it can make you wish you've never seen it
The lips of one you love can give you cause for living
Or tell you things that never really mean it
Once I had a love I thought that it was mine just thought to take it
And all at once he left and all at once my heart started breaking breaking

Judging by my love for him I thought his love for me was just as strong
And all the things he told me I really thought he meant them all along
He had no plans to carry out all his plans that we'd been making
Cause all at once he left and all at once my heart started breaking breaking

Oh all at once I realized love can be a cruel and hurtin' thing
It can fill your world with sunshine but it can also bring you rain
And I know where the clouds that gather in my sunny sky of love
The rain came down he let me down he left and my heart started breaking breaking

MOST OF ALL WHY

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
We once were so close now the love light that glowed
Has now gone out of our lives
And the good life we had for some reason went bad
And the love that once lived here has died

How did we get here where did it start
When did we walk out of each other's heart
Where did we lose it how did love die
When where and how but most of all why

Most of all why did we let love die
Like the withering leaves in the fall
And why did we wait till it was too late
To realize how much we'd lost

How did we get here...
When where and how but most of all why

BOBBY'S ARMS

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
Bobby's arms they are warm when he holds me
Bobby's arms always comfort and console me
When I'm in his arms held tight I know everything's all right
Just as long as I'm inside Bobby's arms

Bobby's arms always welcome me inside
Bobby's arms always hold me when I cry
Bobby's arms always shelter from life's storms
And I feel so safe in Bobby's arms

Bobby's arms they are strong but they're tender
Bobby's arms reach to me and I surrender
When he reaches out from me I'm never out of reach
And I always want to be in Bobby's arms

Bobby's arms always welcome...
In Bobby's arms

SEEKER

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
I am a seeker a poor simple creature
There is no weaker than I am
I am a seeker and you are a teacher
You are a reacher so reach down

Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me
In the shelter of your care each day
Cause I am a seeker and you are a keeper
You are a leader won't you show me the way

I am a vessel that's empty and useless
I am a bad seed that fell by the way
I am a loser that wants to be a winner
You are my last hope don't turn me away

I am a seeker a poor simple creature...
Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me...

Oh now you are a mountain from which there flows a fountain
So let its water wash my sins away
Cause I am a seeker and you are a keeper
You are a teacher won't you teach me the way

Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me...

HOLD ME

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
It's you that I run to whenever I need to darling you console me
When trouble surrounds me when bad times have found me
Just reach out your arms and hold me hold me hold me

Darling please treat me in your arms of safety
Reach out your arms and hold me hold me
When my feelings are showing when my tears are flowing
Just reach out reach out and hold me hold me hold me

You know all of my needs you fill them completely
You know that you control me
I depend on your loving without you I'm nothing
So reach out your arms and hold me hold me

Darling please treat me in your arms of safety
Reach out your arms and hold me hold me
When life is demanding when I need understanding
Reach out reach out and hold me hold me hold me hold me

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
I lie in bed beside you and watch you while you sleep
And wonder who I was before I loved you
Lying here beside you feeling so complete
Thinking how I love and need and trust you

Because I love you
I'm a brand new person now because you love me
I can face the world and have the cause I love you
Because you love me because I love you

Sweeter even still is knowing that you're lying there
And that you soon awake and reach to hold me
And anyway you want me that's the way that I am yours
Love as strong as this lets you control me

Because I love you...
Because I love you...

ONLY THE MEMORY REMAINS

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
You're gone now for good and it looks like I could
Stop crying but I cry just the same
When a heart breaks how long does it take
Till the pain stops and only the mem'ry remains

It's been a long time and you think that by this time
My tears would have drown on the face
I could live with a mem'ry oh but how long will it be
Till the pain stops and only the mem'ry remains

The fire that we started burns on though we've parted
And I'm tortured by the heat of the flame
If I'm strong enough to take it till the pain stops and can make it
When only the mem'ry remains

I could live with a mem'ry but how long will it be
Till the tears stop and the pain stops and only the mem'ry remains
Only the mem'ry only the mem'ry remains

I'LL REMEMBER YOU AS MINE

(Dolly Parton) « © '75 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
(I'll remember you forever I'll remember you as mine)

Let's pretend tonight that it's the same as always
Let's go back just the little ways in time
Let's fill this one last night with lasting mem'ries
Let me remeber you as mine

Hold me close pretending it's still me and you love
And let me be the only thought that's on your mind
Let's pretend that you don't really have a new love
Oh no let me remember you as mine

I'll remember you as sunshine that gave lights in my world
I'll remember you as gentle as this night
I'll remember you as heaven that let me hold a little while
I'll remember you whether I'll remember you as mine

When you leave my arms then I will be alone love
Hold me close love me gently one last time
I won't ever picture you with no one else love
No I'll remember you as mine

I'll remember you as sunshine...
As mine as mine
