Phil Keaggy - Old Time Love lyrics

When I watch her sitting stately there Snuggled in her tilt back chair I feel the urge to reach out and touch her hair and say How much I love you - how very much I love you When I feel her standing very near And hear her breath so very clear I want to hug her, for I fear her loss, I say How much I love you - how very much I love you When the daunting years have pa**ed us by Remember our youth and how very shy Her every hurt would make me cry for her When we pa** through time, we grow together Like linen and lace and English leather I often ask myself that whether I'll live long enough to say How much I love you - how very much I love you I love you - how very much I love you When I witness how our aging frienship Has grown into a lasting kinship I'm so thankful for our lifelongship, that allows my heart to speak How much I love you - how very much I love you When I think about the hardship years The gloomy days and midnight tears Your strength of purpose above your peers I'm so very proud to say How much I love you - how very much I love you When we share our joys and laughter As we walk the morning after And discuss our life hereafter I have thoughts I long to say Like I love you While our time on earth appears to shorten I still remember our first courtin' On the lakeside in midsummer the night I dared to whisper in your ear I love you - how very much I love you When I place my arms around your shoulder Knowing that we are getting older Hugging you seems so much bolder And easier for me to say I love you - how very much I love you When the daunting years have pa**ed us by Remember our youth and how very shy Her every hurt would make me cry for her When we pa** through time, we grow together Like linen and lace and English leather I often ask myself that whether I'll live long enough to say How much I love you - how very much I love you I love you - how very much I love you Please walk with me along the road There is no time for getting old This is the time for me to say again How much I love you - how very much I love you My friend.
