Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch a long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love, I need your love, God speed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home, wait for me

Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch a long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love, I need your love
God speed your love to me


THE MAN FROM LARAMIE - 14/10/1955

The man from Laramie
He was a man with a peaceful turn of mind
He was kind of sociable and friendly
Friendly as any man could be
But you never saw a man out-draw
The man from Laramie

The man from Laramie
He was a man with a warm and gentle heart
But when they'd start the arguing and fightin'
Frightenin' and lightning fast was he
There was no coyote who could outshoot
The man from Laramie

He had a flair for ladies
The ladies loved his air of mystery

The west will never see
A man with so many notches on his gun
Everyone admired the fearless stranger
Danger was this man's speciality
So they never bossed or double crossed
The man from Laramie

He had a flair for ladies
Now the ladies loved his air of mystery

The west will never see
A man with so many notches on his gun
Everyone admired the fearless stranger
Danger was this man's speciality
So they never bossed or double crossed
The man from Laramie
