Things We Said Today
Dwight Yoakam Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I have to go
You'll be thinking of me
Somehow I will know
Someday when I'm lonely
Wishing you weren't so far away
Then I will remember
You say you'll be mine girl
Till the end of time
These days such a kind girl
Seems so hard to find
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love not a lot to say
Then we will remember
Things we said today
Me I'm just a lucky guy
Love to hear you say that
Love is love and though we may be blind
Love is here to stay and that's enough
To make you mine girl
Be the only one
Love me all the time girl
We'll go on and on
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love not a lot to say
Then we will remember
Things we said today
Me I'm just a lucky guy
Love to hear you say that
Love is love and though we may be blind
Love is here to stay and that's enough
To make you mine girl
Be the only one
Love me all the time girl
We'll go on and on
