I've Spent All My Time On Loving You

In the summer we were growing up

Just two kids

In your dad’s truck

‘Til the autumn when he went away

I held your hand

Said, “It’s okay.”

I’ve spent all my time on loving you

And won’t stop now

Won’t stop now

I’ve spent all my time on loving you

And won’t stop now

Won’t stop now

And by the double wide, I picked you up

In pourin’ rain

For coffee cups

You said you had a child

Along the way

And married well

Or so you prayed

I’ve spent all my time on loving you

And won’t stop now

Won’t stop now

I’ve spent all my time on loving you

And won’t stop now

Won’t stop now

And these are the words

At the end, on the grave

These are rain-covered stones

And these, on the line

On the day I believe

Flown to the sun ‘till they’re gone

In the twilight I

Had called you up

And a baby cried

From deep inside

You said, “He’s gone again.”

And “It’s a shame.”

I said, “Yes, it is.”

I’ve spent all my life on loving you

And won’t stop now

Won’t stop now

I’ve spent all my life on loving you

And won’t stop now

Won’t stop now
