Lyrics

Where it be gan,

I can’t be gin to know in’,

but then I know it’s grow in’ strong.

Was in the spring,

and spring be came the sum mer.

Who’d have be lieved you’d come a long?

Hands,

touch in’ hands,

reach in’ out,

touch ing me,

touch ing you.

Sweet Car o line,

good times nev er seemed so good.

I’ve been in clined

to be lieve they nev er would, but now I...

look at the night,

and it don’t seem so lone ly.

We fill it up with on ly two.

And when it hurt,

hurt in’ runs off my shoul ders.

How can I hurt when hold in’ you?

Warm,

touch in’ warm,

reach in’ out,

touch ing me,

touch ing you.

Sweet Car o line,

good times nev er seemed so good.

I’ve been in clined

to be lieve they nev er would, but now I...

would.

Sweet Car o line.
