about

Written Spring 2006 Nashville, TN . . . Leake Ave, Belle Meade. Recorded December 2010 or January 2011, Baton Rouge.

Outtake from "All For You, Dulcinea"

lyrics

Oh, my love, she was something to see
Oh, my love, when she was with me
& I gave her all that I had. I gave heart and soul
& I met her early one spring
& it seemed like life was a dream
& I knew that she was the one with whom I would grow old

& She was the whole world to me
Golden hair & eyes that were green
And I asked her one summer night if she'd be my wife
And she said with simplicity
"Oh, yes, I would love to be"
& I swore forever & always I'd be by her side

I awoke one morning to hear
The news confirmed my worst fear
They found my love used by some bandits. They left her for dead
With my own hands I took my life
So that I could be with my wife
And at the gates of eternity she was awaiting me there
