WHEN I'M WITH YOU

(Don Williams)

Don Williams
recorded 1978


If I could write about the way you make me feel,
I wonder what I'd write,
'Cause of all the words there are to use,
They'd never say it right!

When I only have a minute
And it'd take a thousand hours,
And some new words too!
But my nights are never blue,
And I don't mind the rain when I'm with you!

When I'm with you, the songs are already written,
Melodies turn into words nobody's ever said!
When I'm alone, the only thing I can say that's true
Is my nights are never blue,
And I don't mind the rain when I'm with you!

So if I could write about the way you make me feel
I wonder what I'd write,
'Cause of all the words there are to use,
They'd never say it right!

When I only have a minute
And it'd take a thousand hours,
And all those new words too!
But my nights are never blue,
And I don't mind the rain when I'm with you!
