Story Behind The Song

Having being married for 20 years, and going through and survivng the up's and downs of growing together, this was my first song that I ever wrote for and about my wife. Not because I wasn't motivated to do so but it took 20 years to finally get the words right. The rest will explain itself.

Song Description

If you've ever been with someone for a long time, then this ballad explains it all. And from a man's perspective, It's kind of a "Can live with her; Can't live without her" song. A traditional ballad.

Lyrics

Your Name..........
Words And Music by Archie S. McLeod III


Sometimes you do, sometimes you don?t
Sometimes you will, sometimes you won?t
Sometimes we kiss, sometimes we hug
Sometimes we do none of the above
But every night before I sleep, I say a prayer
And as I thank the Lord for every precious thing.......

(I say) your name
The one that I love
You are the song that tells the world of all my love
You fill my needs
You feed my dreams
You are the reason that I sing
Through all of the good and bad
You?re the best part of my life
With every breath that I breathe
I will call your name.......

Some days we?re one, some days we?re two
You?re mad at me, I?m mad at you
And darkness falls, Day turns to night
I reach for you, you hold me tight.
You are my constant love and every day that loves the same
I am so thankful for you

(That?s why I call) Your Name
The one that I love
You are the song that tells the world of all my love
You fill my needs
You feed my dreams
You are the reason that I sing
Through all of the good and bad
You?re the best part of my life
With every breath that I breathe
I will call your name.......

(repeat)
