Lyrics

I was Walkin? AfterMidnight thinkin' ?bout Faded Love
THe first time I met Sonny down at the veteran?s club
The club had Karaoke and I just loved to sing
So I put my name into the box and Sonny said these things

?Sing it like Patsy Cline would do
Pour your heart
Out in song
And you know you can?t go wrong
When the music starts to play
I?ll go Crazy but that?s OK
When you sing it like Patsy Cline would do?

Sonny was a veteran who had the scars of war
He drank to hide the memories of the life he knew before
He always wore a big smile; and his pain I couldn?t see
He always came to hear me sing and would say these words to me

?Sing it like Patsy Cline would do
Pour your heart
Out in song
And you know you can?t go wrong
When I lay me down to bed
I?ll have Sweet Dreams in my head
If you sing it like Patsy Cline would do?

Sonny took his life today I heard on the phone
His wife called to ask if I?d sing him back home

?Sing it like Patsy Cline would do
Sing it loud
So he?ll hear
How much we miss him here
When the music starts to play
I?ll Fall to Pieces but that?s OK
When you sing it like Patsy Cline would do?
