i'd like to be

Jim Reeves

I'd like to be the picture on your mantel I'd like to be the window in your door
I'd like to be the feather on your pillow I'd even like to be the carpet on your floor
I'd like to be the star outside your window that lucky chair that holds you every night
The puppy pop you warm up every morning I'd even like to be the apple that you bite
And if you need someone to talk with I'd like to be the little voice inside
And if you'll ever have a heartache I wanna be the tear you hide
I'd like to the be the record on your phonograph the melody that action night and day
And when you're old enough to want to marry
I'd like to be the one who steals your heart away

And if you need someone to talk with
