(Merle Haggard)

Always wanting you, but never having you,
Makes it hard to face tomorrow 'cause I
Know I'll be wanting you again.
Always loving you but never touching you,
Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand.

I'd been better off if I'd turned away and never
Looked at you the second time
'Cause I really had my life all together
Till your eyes met mine.

And there I say a yearning and a feeling 'cross
The room that you felt for me.  
Wish I'd had a way of knowing that the things we had in
Mind could never be.

--- Instrumental ---

Always loving you but never touching you
Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand.
