Merle Haggard - More Than This Old Heart Can Take lyrics

You walk into his arms before my very eyes You can't even wait to be somewhere alone The ties that bind have broken loose and I'm about to break Loving you is more than this old heart can take There was a place in time when I was always on your mind And now I'm nothing more than just a fool I thought that I was strong enough to live with my mistake But loving you is more than this old heart can take I don't know what's kept my mind from going crazy But when you laugh at me it's more than I can stand And when you're dancing with someone too close it causes me to shake Loving you is more than this old heart can take Hey, loving you is more than this old heart can take
