Trying To Get To You:Roy Orbison.
Recorded on JE-WEL Records in 1956.
DNC. (One of his first.)
INTRO:
#1.
I ve been traveling over mountains,
even through the valleys, too.
I ve been traveling night and day,
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
#2.
Since I read your lovin letter,
where you said you loved me, true.
I ve been traveling night and day,
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
CHORUS:
Well, there s nothing that could hold me.
Or that could keep me away from you.
Since your loving letter told me,
that you really loved me, true.
#3.
I just had to reach you, baby..
but after all that I ve been through..
I ve been travellin night and day,
runnin all the way, baby, trying to
get to you.
#4.
Well, if I had to do it over..
that s exactly what I d do.
I d keep travellin night and day,
runnin all the way, baby, trying to
get to you.
CHORUS:
Well, since I read your lovin letters..
then my heart began to sing.
There were many miles between us..
but they didn t mean a thing.
#5.
Lord above me knows I love you.
It was He who brought me through.
When my way was darkest night,
He would shine His brightest light,
when I was trying to get to you.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
