If There Was A Way
Sung & Written by Dwight Yoakam
Album: If There Was A Way (1990) & dwightyoakamacoustic.net (1999)
This is one of my favorite songs, off one of my favorites albums,
by one of my absolute favorite artists.
These are the lyrics from the LP If there Was A Way. The performance
that
Dwight does for acoustic.net has a different last verse. On the
acoustic.net
album he performs it with a 5/6 time arppegio through most of the
song.
I was just standing
Alone in this room.
Surrounded my memories
We stopped making too soon.
Oh, I was just standing
I was just standing,
Alone in this room,
Alone in this room.
I was just thinking
All to myself.
How I still want you
and nobody else.
Oh, I was just thinking,
I was just thinking,
All to myself,
All to myself,
In this darkness I move slowly,
Always struggling to be free.
But I still hear your voice,
And everywhere I see you the choice
That made such a fool of me.
I was just wondering,
If there was a way.
Bringing back to me
Pretty things I could say.
Oh I was just wondering,
I was just wondering,
If there was a way.
