Elvis Presley For Ol` Times Sake Lyrics

For Ol` Times Sake Lyrics

(Words & music by Tony Joe White)
Before you go walk out on me
Take a look around tell me what you see
Here I stand like an open book
Is there something here you might have overlooked
`Cause it would be a shame if you should leave
And find that freedom ain`t what you thought it would be
The years we had were not all bad
In fact I know the good outweighed the bad
Now you say that you`ve grown tired
You want to be by yourself a while
It would be a shame if you should go
And find that freedom was a long time ago
I know that you can`t stand the chains that bind you
They just keep on drivin` us apart
You could go where I could never find you
But could you go far enough to get away from your heart
So one more time, for ol` times sake
Come and lay your head upon my chest
Please don`t throw this moment away
We can forget the bad and take the best
If you don`t have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time for ol` times sake
If you don`t have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time for ol` times sake
