I Can't Love You Enough
Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd crawl through the desert on my hands and knees without a drink of water
Just for a chance of a little romance with that coal miner's daughter
Yeah, if I was a poor girl beggin' in the street livin' crumb to crumb
I'd turn down a 12-pound t-bone steak for a bum-bum-bum
Love is all we feel
Spinnin' like a wheel
We let it roll
When you walk that walk and you talk that talk
I can't love you enough, I can't love you enough
You've got a way of making me say
I can't love you enough, I can't love you enough
I'm never gonna give you up
I can't love you enough
Hey Conway, you're my Mississippi man
You're really gettin' to me fast
Every time we kiss it burns so deep
It just lasts and lasts and lasts
Loretta my love for you is strong
I wouldn't sell it for a million dollars
I know I belong here singin' this song
With that girl from Butcher Hollow
