That's the Day (I Never live to See) Songtext
von Dale Watson

The first day that we met in a book hotel
How head over heels in love with you, I fell
And from then on I′ve been alone, but that's the life I chose
′Cause I know there's never anyone for me but you

You got that certain something that I really want
It's looking like I′ll love you ′til the day I don't
But I guess I really know just when that day will be
That′s the day I'll never live to see


So many times I tried to find the courage in myself
To take you by the hand and tell you how I feel
But the ring that′s on your finger, it keeps me away
But it won't keep my love for you from growing more each day

You got that certain something that I really want
It′s looking like I'll love you 'til the day I don′t
But I guess I really know just when that day will be
That′s the day I'll never live to see
That′s the day I'll never live to see
