Lyrics
I'd Rather Have You
written by Sean Hogan
Slipped out the door late last night, and went down to the Lucky Bar.
Sometimes my life feels too quiet and the quiet just goes too far.
I only need to pull up a chair; and hear honest music being played.
No I'm not lookin' for new conversation, or for new love to be made.
I'd rather have you, in the morning than the sun's own rays of light.
I'd rather have you in the evening as my beacon through each night.
Oh I could get by for a little while, without a trace of your sweet smile
but I know I can't go on for too long, in a world that can be too blue.
I'd rather have you. I'd rather have you.
I get the need to get away, so far away from the things of man.
Somewhere out of everyday, like a shootin' star has got no plan.
This life is full of temptation; it's so hard to be satisfied.
I need no riches girl, to get by
I'd rather have you, in the morning than the sun's own rays of light.
I'd rather have you in the evening as my beacon through each night.
Oh I could get by for a little while, without a trace of your sweet smile
butI know I can't go on for too long, in a world that can be too blue
I'd rather have you. I'd rather have you.
I'd rather have you, in the morning than the sun's own rays of light.
I'd rather have you in the evening as my beacon through each night.
Oh I could get by for a little while, without a trace of your sweet smile
butI know I can't go on for too long, in a world that can be too blue
I'd rather have you. I'd rather have you.
