Merle Haggard - Live and Love Always Lyrics

I wanna live and love under the stars above
I wanna hold you close to my heart
You gave me hopes anew when I was sad and blue
Nothin's gonna tear us apart

I sang a lonely song until you came along
I'm headed for that bright sunny day
Honey I'm tellin' you what love can do
I'm gonna live and love always

Yeah I wanna shout hooray, praise that lucky day
When you came walking into my life
I got a change in plans 'cause I'm a different man
I'm thru with all that trouble and strife

I used to be so sad now I feel so glad
I'm headed for that bright sunny day
Honey I'm tellin' you what love can do
I'm gonna live and love always

Yeah, I used to feel so bad now I feel so glad
I'm headed for that bright sunny day
Honey I'm tellin' you what love can do
I'm gonna live and love always
