Strawberry Blonde

STRAWBERRY BLONDE - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Just one look in your eyes made my day so special 

One touch of your skin was the highlight of my life

Dancing inside you and loving such beauty

Glorified my heart in the heat of the night 

Now you're just a memory 

Why did you have to leave so soon?

Love that would leave me knee deep in my gloom and doom

Just one kiss in the morning made me burst with excitement

Hearing your laughter was really too much 

Sharing the moments that flew by so quickly

It was all just a story to be told by broken love 

Now you're a tear on my pillow 

Why did you have to run away so far? 

(I see the falling of my star)

Strawberry blonde, and now my world is gone 

Nothing is real and I can't feel a thing

Strawberry blonde, how will I get along

Standing in the rain and living with this pain 

Just one sweetest hello when you came back from missing

Took fears from my mind of some other guy 

It's so hard to deal with my dark insecurities 

And it really didn't help when you told me goodbye

(I had to cry) 

You knew I wanted you to stay

Look at me now, and the price that I paid

Strawberry blonde, and now my world is gone 

Nothing is real and I can't feel a thing

Strawberry blonde, how will I get along

Standing in the rain and living with this pain

(It's hard to deal) 

I still remember that sweet surrender

Under the covers and we played until dawn 

I put down my armor only for a moment 

Then came the hammer and it was too late to with-drawl

(Nasty feelings and all)

The way that you held me eased all of my fears and doubts
Until I woke up one morning and my world turned upside down

Just one look in your eyes made my day so special 

Touching your skin was the highlight of my life
The smell of your scent would take me to places
The thought of your hand entwined into mine

Entwined for all time

Strawberry blonde, and now my world is gone 

Nothing is real and I can't feel a thing

Strawberry blonde, how will I get along

Standing in the rain and living with this pain

(I can't deal)

Strawberry blonde and now my world is gone
