I was lost without a song without a melody You came into my hotel life You made my room a home Ah now, mama, don't you know what you done Ah, you made the sunshine in the city Oh, you warmed my heart You changed an old man filled with pity Back to a child again Ah now, mama, can't you see what you done So tell me darlin' if the feeling's wrong Don't waste another day Lord, the saddest thing I've ever known Was to watch it die away Ah now, mama, don't you lie don't you lie Oh, how can my giving find the rhythm and the time of you Unless you sing your songs to me The smell of your sweet skin does entangle my dream
Oh may I stand here awhile living your smile Oh, how could you ever know what you've done You warmed my heart when I was so all alone But all I have to give Are my dreams of coming and going forever Inside the rivers of time you'll find me waiting For you to find peace in your mind So we can love again I feel what you feel, If you feel what you feel, And I see what you see, If you see what you see, So it goes on and on On it goes, on and on It's my heart and your heart, It's our hearts together, You sing and I'll bring, We'll both love together, And all I know is let it grow All you'll find is peace of mind.
