Merle Haggard — I’ve Got a Yearning

[Chorus] 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 [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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
