I’ve Made Up My Mind to Give Myself to You
Sitting on my terrace lost in the stars I saw the first fall of snow
Listenin’ to the sounds of the sad guitars I saw the flowers come and go
Been thinking it over and I thought it all through I don’t think anyone else ever knew
I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you I made up my mind to give myself to you
I’m giving myself to you, I am My eye is like a shooting star
From Salt Lake City to Birmingham It looks at nothing, neither near or far
From East L.A. to San Antone No one ever told me, it’s just something I knew
I don’t think I could bear to live my life alone I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you
Take me out traveling, you’re a traveling man I traveled the long road of despair
Show me something that I’ll understand I met no other traveler there
I’m not what I was, things aren’t what they were A lot of people gone, a lot of people I knew
I’m going to go far away from home with her I made up my mind to give myself to you
My heart’s like a river a – a river that sings From the plains and the prairies – from the /mountains to the sea
It just takes me a while to realize things I hope that the gods go easy with me
I’ll see you at sunrise – I’ll see you at dawn I knew you’d say yes – I’m saying it too
I’ll lay down beside you, when everyone is gone I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you
