Return to main melody for 7th and 8th bars, then intro riff to end.
I woke to the sound of the radio on
Like a dream it was your song
Then again everything reminds me of you
The dreaded signal that it's time to leave
Give me time to dry the sleeve
Do you think they'll notice in my eyes?
It's plain that this is hard to do
But it's just the first of things that I would do for you
It's true that I always want to have you around
I never want to hold you down
It feels good just to give you what you need
Everyone is saying that the time will fly
To the day when your eyes meet mine
Hate to say that the theory isn't true
It's plain that this is hard to do
But it's just the first of things that I would do for you
One thing I know is that we'll make it through
There's not a thing that could drag me away from you
And I know that my love is what you need
I can't wait to the day that I have you home
But it won't be long till you're back on the road
Try to keep each moment that you're mine
It's plain that this is hard to do
But it's just the first of things that I would do for you
