So%2C What Would I Do
Joe Bonamassa Lyrics
Home for a day,
Six more nights, baby
When I go on the road, feel my presence
Been a shame babe
All I need, is a true, inner faith
That true love brings
Bless your soul for loving me
In my false, including
Oh I know, you're the rock
That keeps me grounded
I know it can't be, a long winding road
You know I love you so
All I have, is you on my mind
You're all that's left for me in my life
Cause' I wanna know
You seep, and laugh with me
Cause' I will survive as long as time will wait
So what would I do
Just sit and suffer baby
So what would I do
I could go on, without you darling
Oh I don't know
I wanna know, you seep, and laugh with me
I'll survive, as long as time will wait
So what would I do
Just sit and suffer babe
So what would I do
I could go on, without you darling
Oh I don't know
Six more nights, baby
When I go on the road, feel my presence
Been a shame babe
All I need, is a true, inner faith
That true love brings
Bless your soul for loving me
In my false, including
Oh I know, you're the rock
I know it can't be, a long winding road
You know I love you so
All I have, is you on my mind
You're all that's left for me in my life
Cause' I wanna know
You seep, and laugh with me
Cause' I will survive as long as time will wait
So what would I do
Just sit and suffer baby
So what would I do
I could go on, without you darling
Oh I don't know
I wanna know, you seep, and laugh with me
I'll survive, as long as time will wait
So what would I do
Just sit and suffer babe
So what would I do
I could go on, without you darling
Oh I don't know

Home for a day
Six more nights, baby
When I go on the road
Feel my presence diminishing, baby
All I need is the truth and a faith
That true love brings
Bless your soul for loving me
And my faults included
Oh, I know
You're the rock
That keeps me grounded
I know it can be a long, winding road
You know I love you so
All I have is you on my mind
You're all that's left for me in my life
'Cause I want to know
You've seen enough with me
'Cause I will survive
This long time away
So, what would I do?
I could go on without you, darling
Oh, I don't know
Now I want to know
You see a life with me
I'll survive
This long time away
So, what would I do?
Just sit and suffer, baby
So, what would I do?
I could go on without you, darling
Oh, I don't know

This song goes straight to my heart. I’m 70. My husband is 79
and battling cancer. We have a dance together every night. This is the one tonight.
