love's been good to me

Singer:edwyn collins

i have been a rover

i have walked alone

hiked a hundred highways

never found a way

still

in all i'm happy

the reason is

you see

once in a while

along the way

love's been good to me

there was a girl in denver

before the summer storm

and oh

her eyes were tender

and oh

her arms were warm

and she could smile away the thunder

and kiss away the rain

even though she's gone away

you won't hear me complain

i have been a rover

i have walked alone

hiked a hundred highways

never found a way

still

in all i'm happy

the reason is

you see

once in a while

along the way

love's been good to me

there was a girl in portland

before the winter chill

we used to be a-courting

along october hill

and she could laugh away the dark clouds

and cry away the snow

it seems like only yesteryear

as down the road i go

i have been a rover

i have walked alone

hiked a hundred highways

never found a way

still

in all i'm happy

the reason is

you see

once in a while

along the way

love's been good to me
