Always Wanting You

Loretta Lynn · Home [1975]

Always wanting you but never having you

Makes it hard to face tomorrow

'Cause I know I'll wake up wanting you, again

Always loving you, ah, but never touching you

Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand.



I'd been better off if I turned away

And never looked at you the second time

'Cause I really had my life

All together till your eyes met mine.



And there I saw your yearning and the feeling

Across the room that you felt for me

Wish I'd had a way of knowin'

That the things we had in mind could never be.



Always wanting you but never having you

Makes it hard to face tomorrow

'Cause I know I'll wake up wanting you, again

Always loving you, ah, but never touching you

Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand.

Always loving you, ah, but never touching you

Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand...
