You Were the Only Girl for Me   Year: 2005 | Run Time: 4:11

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2005

more or less on my knees
love songs in the minor key
you were the only girl for me

too much to see too much to recall
lived my days in sound waves and the rush of alcohol
you were the only girl for me
all these places I'd only intended to visit
somewhere I got lost became a permanent resident
you were the only girl for me

if mercy is a drink I could use me some
growing old to be forever young

I remember when my eyes first met yours
I sold the farm to buy the store
you were the only girl for me
bones get cold and brains forget
teardrops explode by a fireplace called regret
you were the only girl for me

if mercy is a drink well pour me some
growing old to be forever young

come as thou are come as thou ain't
it's gonna take more than a new coat of paint
you were the only girl for me
roll back the tape to our first kiss
you never signed up for any of this
you were the only girl for me
if a car crash does us fatal harm
would you carry me to Jesus in your arms?
you were the only girl for me

if mercy is an ocean let it roll on
growing old to be forever young

more or less on my knees
love songs in the minor key
you were the only girl
you were the only girl
you were the only girl for me

Appeared On…
