Things You Gave Me
Rick Nelson · Country Fever [Decca] [1967]
(Glenn D. Hardin)
You gave so many things to remember you by
Like a heart full of emptiness like tears in my eye
When my heartaches all have gone
It will be because you gave me so much leaving alone.
I've got everything I need to remember you
I've got all the things you gave me and you gave me quite a few
Like a heart full of emptiness like tears in my eyes
I got wall to wall of sadness I can walk on while I cry.
You gave so many things to remember you by
Like a heart full of emptiness like tears in my eye
When my heartaches all have gone
It will be because you gave me so much leaving alone.
--- Instrumental ---
Well, I wish you hadn't given me this solitude
It's a gift that keeps on givin' after you've gone gone gone gone
When my heartaches all have gone
It will be because you gave me so much leaving alone...
You gave so many things to remember you by
Like a heart full of emptiness like tears in my eye
When my heartaches all have gone
It will be because you gave me so much leaving alone.
I've got everything I need to remember you
I've got all the things you gave me and you gave me quite a few
Like a heart full of emptiness like tears in my eyes
I got wall to wall of sadness I can walk on while I cry.
You gave so many things to remember you by
Like a heart full of emptiness like tears in my eye
When my heartaches all have gone
It will be because you gave me so much leaving alone.
