Jolene

Dolly Parton Jolene Lyrics
1.Jolene

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And i cannot compete with you, jolene

He talks about you in his sleep
There's nothing i can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, jolene

And i can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, jolene

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

You could have your choice of men
But i could never love again
He's the only one for me, jolene

I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, jolene

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, jolene


2.When Someone Wants To Leave

When you love somebody with all your heart and soul
And you want to keep them with you, but you know they want to go
What do you do, what do you say
When you know they want to leave
As bad as you want them to stay
And there's nothing quite as sad as a one-sided love
When one doesn't care at all and the other cares too much
It's a sad situation, i must say
When you know they want to leave
As bad as you want them to stay

You know how much i love you
But i know you don't love me
And i know it's just a matter of time before you leave
But i do, i stand aside and just let you walk away
But i know you want to leave
As bad as i want you to stay

And there's nothing quite as sad as a one-sided love
When one doesn't love at all and the other loves too much
It's a sad situation i must say
When someone wants to leave as bad as you want them to stay
Oh, it's a sad situation i must say
When someone wants to leave as bad as you want them to stay


3.River Of Happiness

Chorus:
Somewhere a river of happiness flows
We'll sit on its banks while the warm breezes blow
Somewhere there's a garden where only love grows
Somewhere a river of happiness flows

Dry your eyes, don't cry no more
We'll find a place where there's laughter and joy
So take my hand and don't let go
Come with me and together we'll go

Repeat chorus

We'll walk in the sunshine
We'll laugh and we'll sing
And dance to the tune that our happiness brings
Come go with me to this place i speak of
Together, we'll find it, this place is called love

Repeat chorus

Tag:

Somewhere a river of happiness flows

5.I Will Always Love You

If i should stay
Well, i would only be in your way
And so i'll go, and yet i know
That i'll think of you each step of my way
And i will always love you
I will always love you
Bitter-sweet memories
That's all i have, and all i'm taking with me
Good-bye, oh, please don't cry
'cause we both know that i'm not
What you need
I will always love you
I will always love you
And i hope life, will treat you kind
And i hope that you have all
That you ever dreamed of
Oh, i do wish you joy
And i wish you happiness
But above all this
I wish you love
I love you, i will always love

I, i will always, always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you


6.Randy

Randy in your eyes I see the promise of a future
The promise of love like I have never known
Randy cradled in your arms I feel like I'm in heaven
And heaven knows I needed someone like you for so long
So Randy take me with you for that's where I want to be
Teach me how to fly on these new wings you've given me
Randy let me show you what your love has meant to me
Randy let me be the only one you have and need
Randy you had given me reason to live again reason to love again
and reason to
smile
Randy you had given me new inspiration new dreams to dream and
the reason to try
So Randy take me with you


7.Living On Memories Of You


8.Lonely Comin' Down

I woke up this morning in a strange place
I looked into the mirror at a strange face
Then i looked for you but you could not be found
And then i felt the lonely comin' down
I walked across the room to the empty bed
Saw the imprint on the pillow where you laid your head
The presence of you still lingered all around
And once again i felt the lonely comin' down

Then i felt the lonely dripping down my face
As i realized no one could take your place
I wondered where the love had gone that we had found
And then again i felt the lonely comin' down

I wondered where the love had gone that we had found
And again i felt the lonely comin' down

Mmm...


9.It Must Be You

Just like the tide goes with the sea
We belong together, you and me
Just like the dawn followed by day
We'll always be together
And that's just how it will stay
Chorus:

It must be you that's always walking in my dreams
It must be you who'll always be right next to me
So when you find yourself alone
Just think of me and i'll be there
Must be you by my side the whole way through

Just like the fresh white winter snow
Our love is pure and it will always grow
And when we're in those autumn years
Together, we'll look back, but we won't shed a single tear

Repeat chorus

When you find yourself alone
Just think of me and i'll be there
Must be you by my side the whole way through


10.Early Morning Breeze

I open up my door to greet the early morning sun
Closing it behind me and away i do run
To the meadow where the meadow lark is singing in the tree
In the meadow i go walking in the early morning breeze
I cup my hands to catch a multi-colored butterfly
Perched upon the petals of flowers growing wild
Freeing it i watch it as it flies away from me
To visit with the flowers in the early morning breeze
Chorus:

Rainbow colored flowers kissed with early morning sun
The aster and the dahlia and wild geraniums
Drops of morning due still linger on the iris leaves
In the meadow where i'm walking in the early morning breeze

Misty-eyed i look about the meadow where i stray
For its there i find the courage to greet the coming day
For there among the flowers i kneel gently to my knees
To have a word with god in the early mornig breeze

2nd chorus:

A rainbow colored meadow kissed with early morning sun
The aster and the dahlia and wild geraniums
Drops of morning due still linger on the iris leaves
In the meadow where i'm walking in the early morning breez
