Lyrics I've Got A Yearning - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

I've Got A Yearning

I’ve got a yearning to hold you tight
A burning desire, I live with day and night
Everything I wanna lose keeps on hanging on
This feeling isn’t leaving and by now it should be gone
I keep on thinking those thoughts
That keep making me want you all the time
I should be trying to find me a way
I can drive you from my mind
I know that you wanted to give
And I know that you gave all you could
Wish I could accept what is over
And done with for good
I’ve got a yearning to hold you tight
A burning desire, I live with day and night
Everything I wanna lose keeps on hanging on
This feeling isn’t leaving and by now it should be gone
I’ve got a yearning to hold you tight
A burning desire, I live with day and night
Everything I wanna lose keeps on hanging on
This feeling isn’t leaving and by now it should be gone
I’ve got a yearning to hold you tight
A burning desire, I live with day and night
Everything I wanna lose keeps on hanging on
This feeling isn’t leaving and by now it should be gone
