Lady More
© 1976 Jimbo Henderson
Lady, I thought you ought to know
That you are something special to me
More than just a best friend
So much more than any best friend
You’re so much more
These words here, they’re long overdue
But now they, they are sung for you
A meaning I’m not sure I know
A feeling that I can’t outgrow
It’s all for you
Forever, I’ll be indebted to you
For making me feel so new
You were there when I needed you
And saw me through my despair
I know I care
So Lady, I thought you ought to know
That you are something special to me
More than just a best friend
So much more than any best friend
You’re so much more
You’re so much more

Lovely lady
©1978 Jimbo Henderson
Lovely lady from across the sea
Glad we had this time, you and me
To walk the shore and share some tales
Talk about what we’re put here for
What we found some folks never find
The search can drive you right out a your mind….
And though the time it went quite fast
The memories will always last
Yeah memories can always last
Thought about stayin’ away
Knew that you’d be leaving someday
But the more I tried, I just couldn’t hide
From that voice way down deep inside
It said no matter how short a time span
You gotta make it the best that you can….
And though the time it went quite fast
The memories will always last
Yeah memories can always last
We sipped some tea at a table for three
It made the day go better for me
A little later, I sang you my song
That told how love had done me wrong
Before we knew it, we were out of time
I said perhaps, you could drop me a line….
And though the time it went quite fast
The memories will always last
Yeah memories can always last

King of Hearts
© Jimbo Henderson 1996
He’s a stranger in this world he left behind.
Waiting for his only love, he lost his mind.
He says she’s coming back someday;
She’s just only lost her way.
He’s the king of hearts, can’t throw his love away.
She left him in the spring of ‘92
There were things she said she really had to do.
He cried when she went away,
But she promised she’d be back some day;
He’s the king of hearts, can’t throw his love away.
The first year was the hardest one of all.
On lonely nights he’d bang his head against the wall.
His friends tried to help him out,
But to him there wasn’t any doubt.
He’s the king of hearts, can’t throw his love away.
He’s the king of hearts, he knew she’d be back some day.
