Things I Never Had

A house with a big old shade tree

And a swing put up by dad

Sweet love bites (?)

To close my eyes

Are things I never had

A party dress on my birthday

And a doll to make me glad

A highschool dance

A teen romance

Are things I never had

Someone to read me fairy tales

On the days when it would rain

When I'd fall down

No one was there

To kiss away the pain

Someone to call me darlin'

When the blues come on real bad

Each night I pray

To find someday

The things I never had

But now I have you darlin'

I never will feel sad

My cares are small

You're more than all

The things that I never had
