For Le Ann - Tony Joe White

Memories of you smile roll across my mind

Memories I thought I'd left behind

And as I hear that big jet engine whine

I close my eyes and make believe

You're here with me

And I can almost feel you here beside me

Feel your gentle hands to guide me

You make me feel like a man at all times

Now I know there were things

I could have said

To make you feel secure but instead

I must admit I played my part so well

You could never tell that I needed you

And I wanted you

Now why can't we learn to talk to each other

And open ourselves to one another

Why must it be so lonely together

Lord a quarter of

My life has come and passed

And I'm beginning to know myself at last

For being cool ain't worth

The time I spend

To show my friends that I'm cool

And I'm no one's fool

But don't you see that's not the real me

If you leave it'll almost kill me

And I'd be like a song without some soul

For how can you say you've really lived

Unless one time in

Your life you give all of yourself

And there's nothing in return

Lord
