let me live with love lyrics

Honey, sit down, let me tell you what I'm thinking
A story I remember as a kid
About a man who tried to tell his wife he loved her
And the strong and simple heart felt way he did

He said, I thank the Lord for blessing me with feelings
And the strength to work and live the way I do
And then I asked my two most wanted wishes
Let me live with love and die with you

Now the woman in that story was my mama
So I'm passing on a family legacy
And when I tell you that I feel just like my daddy
And every night I fall down on my knees

And I thank the Lord for blessing me with feelings
And the strength to work and live the way I do
And then I asked my two most wanted wishes
Let me live with love and die with you
Yes, let me live with love and die with you
