I wrote this for Evert, of course, while we were dating and he was on the road. I missed him! How could he leave me?
Lyrics
The Way to Loveland c. 2004 Deborah Douglas (now Wilbrink)
I used to save your old words and replay them
One hundred times, I wanted to hear you say them
You danced me through a store on a Georgetown street
You still blow my mind every time our lips meet
CH: But this old world takes its toll and our love’s had to pay
The streets of life don’t often lead to romance and play
Baby, I want to revive us!
Baby, our love will survive us!
Look into my eyes, take my hand
We’ll find our way to Loveland
The way to Loveland
The way to Loveland
It’s a journey we’ll grow to understand
On our way to Loveland
SOLO:
I used to quake at the sight of you, my heart would race
If you had hung upon a cross I’d have taken your place
We used to spend the weekend in our red queen bed
I’d cure your migraine with a touch to your head
CHORUS
