Had It Not Been You

Alan Jackson

5

The girls wouldn't look anything like they do

Can't imagine my life without dresses and shoes

I'd never take in a sunset

From the front porch swing

Or make any sense of the plesure love brings

I'd been alone for sure, had it not been for you

I wouldn't for you're arms

when my dreams don't come true

Never sit holding hands on a

crowded church pew

I wouldn't smile when my fingers

run through you hair

Or laugh when we'd race to the top of the stairs

I'd get old for sure, had it not been for you

You know there are times

that I can't wait to pick up the phone

When you're calling

And the three little voices

that always chime in right along

When we're talking

Oh I never would see through eyes of truth

And my herat would have overlooked

A view that some just talk of

and never find in a lifetime

It's hard to decribe in just words

how I feel when I'm home

And beside you

But I make it known it's just tiem

that I kill when I'm gone

And without you

I'm up all through the night

if you will love me

As long as I wake up each morning

For a lifetim

I'd never take in a sunset

from the front porch swing

Or make any sense of the pleasure love brings

I'd been alone for sure, had it not been you
