Success

Album: Loretta Lynn Sings (1962)

  • We used to go out walkin' hand in hand
    You told me of the big things you had planned
    It wasn't long 'til all your dreams came true
    Success put me in second place with you

    You have no time to love me anymore
    Since fame and fortune knocked upon our door
    Now I spend all my evenings all alone
    Success has made a failure of our home

    If we could share an evening now and then
    Perhaps we'd find true happiness again
    You never hold me like you used to do
    It's funny what success has done to you

    You have no time to love me anymore
    Since fame and fortune knocked upon our door
    Now I spend all my evenings all alone
    Success has made a failure of our home Writer/s: John Mullins
