Lonesome for Willard (Remastered)

Said I don't listen to country anymore
Makes me lonesome for Willard my love
And the pain in my chest
Is not worth the risk, on the radio
So won't you sing me a gospel song
It's faith we built our lives upon
Since they carried him out my door
She said I don't listen to country anymore

Makes me lonesome for Willard
And the sound of his fiddle
And the way that he would play a song for me
So Beautiful and tender
And I'll always remember
Everything I lost now he's not here with me
I'm so lonesome for Willard

I thought I could change her mind
With a little Bob Wills, maybe Patsy Cline
But it took her to a night in a dancehall
Yeah, Willard and the boy's they were givin' it their all
They played Take Me Back to Tulsa
And the Orange Blossom Special
I can almost hear his Faded Love
So beautiful and tender
And I'll always remember
Everything I lost now he's not here with me
I'm so lonesome for Willard

Said I don't need this fiddle anymore
It's yours now son take care of her
It's hard for me, but it's time for it to go
But I know he'd love to see you draw the bow
Playin' Midnight On The Water and on Angelina Baker
And the way that you can play a Maidens Prayer
So beautiful and tender
I know I'll always remember
