Amie
Vince Gill · Other Songs - Vince Gill
I never tried to make you think
Or let you see one thing for yourself
But now your off with someone else and I'm alone
You see, I thought that I might keep you for my own
Amie, what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do
Don't you think the time is right for us to find
All the things we thought weren't proper could be right in time?
And can you see
Which way we should turn together or alone?
I can never see whats right or what is wrong
(Will it take to long to see?)
Amie, what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do
[break]
Well now
Amie what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do
Now it's come to what you want, you've had your way
And all the things you thought before just faded into gray
And can you see
That I don't know if it's you or if it's me?
If it's one of us I'm sure we'll both will see
(Won't you look at me and tell me?)
Amie, what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer
Longer if I do
Amie, what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do
I keep fallin' in and out of love with you
Fallin' in and out of love with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I'd keep fallin' in and out of love
With you
Amie
