True love way

I want in, like a substitute

I've been working awful hard for you
But you don't say, you just hold your breath
So I can't touch what I haven't yet
She's a poor one and it hurts me so
And it's a dark path and a heck of a cold
And she can feel me like she did before
Oh we'd be so free
Happy alone
Sharing a smile
So far from home
