I Love Her

Eddy Arnold · Welcome to My World [RCA Victor] [1971]

(Gene Dobbins - Jean Whitehead)



The mansion that I've promised her

Is still a dream somewhere back in my mind

Someday she's gonna have it if I live that long

If God give me the time.



Although I haven't given her

The things she might have gotten from another

Oh, never once till she complains

Her faith in me remains the same and I love her.



The day when our first baby came

We both cried and felt the pain together

I passed around the cheap cigars

And braged a lot about our newborn daughter.



Now she's growing up and she's a

Sweet and loving image of her mother

Who gives me strenght to make each day

And says I know you'll find the way, and I love her.



When the world is walked away

She's the one who always stays beside me

Giving all the love she can

Reaching out with gentle hands to guide me.



In another month or two

We hope to give our little girl a brother

Without her I could never be the kind of man

She sees in me and I love her.



And I love her...
