Merle Haggard - Ive Got A Yearning Lyrics

I've got a yearning to hold you tight at burning desire I live with day and night

Everything I lose keeps on hanging on

This feeling isn't leaving and by now it should be gone


I keep on thinking those thoughts that keep making me want you all the time

I should be trying to find me a way I can drive you from my mind

I know that you wanted to give and I know that you gave all you could

Wish I could accept what is over and done with for good

But I've got a yearning to hold you tight...


I've got a yearning to hold you tight...

I've got a yearning to hold you tight...
