Rodney Crowell
Making Memories of Us
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna be here for you, baby
I'll be a man of my word
Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard
I want to sleep with you forever
And I want to die in your arms
In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm

[Chorus]
And I'm gonna love you
Like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust
Making memories of us

[Verse 2]
I wanna honor your mother
And I wanna learn from your pa
I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw
And I wanna stand out in a crowd for you
A man among men
I wanna make your world better than it's ever been

[Chorus]
And I'm gonna love you
Like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust
Making memories of us
[Verse 3]
We'll follow the rainbow
Wherever the four winds blow
And there'll be a new day
Coming your way

[Bridge]
I'm gonna be here for you from now on
This you know somehow
You've been stretched to the limits
But it's alright now
And I'm gonna make you a promise
If there's life after this
I'm gonna be there to meet you
With a warm, wet kiss
Yes, I am

[Chorus]
And I'm gonna love you
Like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust
Making memories of us

[Outro]
And I'm gonna love you
Like nobody loves you
And I'll win your trust
Making memories of us
Oh baby
