I seen highways in the rain

Waved goodbye to midnight trains

I seen sweet dreams disappear

All my life

I felt cold wind cut my skin

Waiting on ships that never came in

But I never cried real tears until tonight



If I should lose this love

If you should turn away

I couldn't bear to face

One more day

If I should lose this love

I couldn't stand the pain

I can do without better things in life and still get by

But If I should lose this love oh baby

I might just lay down & die



I staggered on the edge of hell

Stealing coins from wishing wells

And If the world went up in flames

What did I care

But when I look into your eyes

You know I suddenly realize

For the first time in my life baby I'm scared



If I should lose this love

If you should turn away

I couldn't bear to face

One more day

If I should lose this love

I couldn't stand the pain

I can do without better things in life and still get by

But If I should lose this love oh baby

I might just lay down & die



I don't want to lose this love
