I was born in a place
Where friends and family interlace
I am a good and honest man
Trying to live my life the best I can

But I can't walk away from what we had
Tell me how did it all go bad
The best of love I gave to you
Goodbye on a note pad I came home to

Goodbye goodbye
It was written there plain to see
In red ink you said goodbye to me

I have known many women
Maybe even loved a few
But I never love any woman
As much as I love you

And I came home to see

Goodbye goodbye
It was written there plan to see
Right there on a note pad
You said goodbye to me

All thought the night
The stars and the moon are so bright
My feelings are hard to constrain
But I stand here alone with my pain

Now here I stand
The cold bitter wind on my hands
But I got a firm grip understand
These feelings for you were not planed

Holding on
To these feelings for you
Holding on
Not sure what to do
Holding on
And it's not fair to you
Holding on

Now comes the dawn
A golden blue sky coming on
The warmth on my face I can feel
Please tell me this pain is not real

And in my heart
These feelings for you I impart
And the tears I don't want them to start
Cause that's when it all falls apart

Holding on
To these feelings for you
Holding on
Not sure what to do
Holding on
And it's not fair to you
Holding on

Like water through your hands
Through your fingers like desert sands
It all just slipped right threw
It had to happen I always knew.

Something  that could never be
Love for her still burns in me
And I won't stop her
From walking away you see

Free to go her own way
Now my heart is a castaway
Stranded here for ever more
Like so many times before

You can walk away
But you will never forget
You will see my love for you
In every beautiful sunset

She knows as she walks by me
That she's all I see
Now there's  an empty stare
She's looking worse for ware

As she turns to me
Again she's all I see
Now she speaks in tongues
Her words they come undone

She walks away from me
You know she's all I see
I have to say it straight
She's in a fragile state

I want her to come to me
Because she's all I see
But she's lost in the dark
She's got a heavy heart

Now she's leaving me
But still she's all I see
All I can do
Is hope she makes it through

There's a small country store
With an old wooden floor
There's an Old Man inside
With a smile he can't  hide

In that same country store
I'll buy some flowers for sure
There for my Angel Face
She's got a smile I can't ignore

As I walk out the door
Of that little country store
With red and yellow roses
They say friend I love you

You can't see
How much you mean to me
But I know I got a life time
In which to show you

Even before I wake
My mind anticipates the shake
Even before I am out of bed
My hand shakes like I said

Even before I am on the go
The shake follows don't you know
Even before I am out the door
Here comes the shake I can ignore

Even before the Meds kick in
I can't stop the shake from within
Even before you ask why
I have Parkinson's don't give me the eye

Woman your are my Angel
The apple of my eye
But you belong to someone else
Now all I do is cry

I want to hold you in my arms
Make love to you soft and sweet
Give you all I got to give
Make you feel complete

Hand and hand I'll walk with you
To have all your love would be a thrill
If your going to be with me
It would have to be Gods will.
