Merle Haggard - I've Got A Yearning (1974) lyrics

I've got a yearning to hold you tight at burning desire I live with day and night Everything I lose keeps on hanging on This feeling isn't leaving and by now it should be gone I keep on thinking those thoughts that keep making me want you all the time I should be trying to find me a way I can drive you from my mind I know that you wanted to give and I know that you gave all you could Wish I could accept what is over and done with for good But I've got a yearning to hold you tight... I've got a yearning to hold you tight... I've got a yearning to hold you tight...
