Lyrics Ricky Van Shelton

Ricky Van Shelton

Let Me Live With Love (And Die with You)

Honey, sit down, let me tell you what I'm thinking

A story I remember as a kid

About a man who tried to tell his wife he loved her

And the strong and simple heart felt way he did

He said, I thank the Lord for blessing me with feelings

And the strength to work and live the way I do

And then I asked my two most wanted wishes

Let me live with love and die with you

Now the woman in that story was my mama

So I'm passing on a family legacy

And when I tell you that I feel just like my daddy

And every night I fall down on my knees

And I thank the Lord for blessing me with feelings

And the strength to work and live the way I do

And then I asked my two most wanted wishes

Let me live with love and die with you

Yes, let me live with love and die with you
