Give Her My Best

from Painted Sky by Schweitzer

/

lyrics

I remember walkin' hand in hand on South Padre Island
We took my truck and a cooler to the beach to spend the day
I can still see her hair in tiny circles drippin' Gulf Coast sunshine
God help my heart if I don't remember her that way

So give her my best if you see her and tell her I still feel the same
and I'm comin' to terms, 'stead of comin' all apart
But tell her yes, I'm still alone, and might just stay that way
How can I love another with her living in my heart?
How can I love another with her living in my heart?

I dream about the moonlight in her eyes this side of Austin
Stuck on 35 without a spare and no help for miles
I was kickin' and screamin' like I thought
it was the truck's fault we were stranded
She was holding back the laughter but couldn't hide the smile

So give her my best if you see her and tell her I still feel the same
I'm not comin' all apart...
But tell her yes, I'm still alone...
How can I love another with her living in my heart?
How can I love another with her living in my heart?

She up and bought a home on the Dallas side of Waco
I know she could never afford to do that by herself
And I can still see her hair in tiny circles drippin' Gulf Coast sunshine
God help my heart cause my heart can't help itself

So give her my best if you see her and tell her I still feel the same
and I'm comin' to terms, 'stead of comin' all apart
But tell her yes, I'm still alone, and might just stay that way
How can I love another with her living in my heart?
How can I love another with her living in my heart?

My brother started writing songs and that was the spark that started me on my own songwriting course that would last the rest of my life. I chose to use my surname, "Schweitzer," for practical reasons, realizing long ago that pronouncing "Richard Schweitzer" was difficult. "Schweitzer Projects" under the "tindog music & stuff" umbrella is producing songs in the Pop / Pop rock or folk categories ... more
