Amy Grant - If You Have To Go Away Lyrics
When I was a youngerI used to dream a lotStaring into my coffeeAbout how youd love meAnd write me poetryAnd want to be with me, yeahWell, momma done told meYou might wander far, yeahBut nobody warned meThe road would own your heartAnd so Im sayingIf you have to go awayI will be waiting by the phoneAnd if you have to go awayIll put your records onPretend youre still at homeNow that Im olderI sit at home a lotWith the kid weve got, yeahThe radios playingHe really loves his wifeI hear the d.j. sayingWell momma done told meYou might wander far, ohAs long as you hold meMore than you hold that guitarIll keep on sayingIf you have to go awayIll leave your shoes beside the bedAnd if you have to go awayIll want to be with youIll be with me insteadIf you have to go awayI wont be sleeping very wellBut if you have to go awayIll be loving youTill its cold in hellMaybe youll write me this timeMaybe youll call on a static lineSaying dont you ever worry your pretty mindCause you and me are gonna be fineAnd so Im sayingIf you have to go awayI will be waiting by the phoneAnd if you have to go awayIll put your records onPretend youre still at homeIf you have to go awayIll leave your shoes beside the bedAnd if you have to go awayIll want to be with youIll be with me insteadIf you have to go awayI wont be sleeping very wellBut if you have to go awayIll be loving youIll be loving youIf you have to go away
