Isabel Lyrics

Its the summer of '48 and I'm in love with Isabel
she is a small town girl. I'm a poor town boy who just got home from a war.
And she asked me, "baby did all of that death and dying make you scared to live?" I told her, "No. The prospect of your love and your life... I think I want to be giving you the rest of mine, Isabel."

So lets build a family and lets raise a home, oh Isabel I would work it through and raise a boy who learns to love and maybe a girl who loves like you do.
Cause in my life there are miracles and I have lived to tell that in my life there was one love, and I will love her well for the rest of mine. Isabel.

Isabel I'm scared because the longer I live the shorter my life seems in my mind. I got sick last year and don't want to miss my spring time. I ask her, "Baby, does all this death and dying make you scared to live?" She tells me, "No, the prospect of your love and your life, I think I want to be giving you the rest of mine."

'cause we're young we grow old, but the life in between that's another thing. I'll give you the best that's in me
We're young we grow old, but love in between now that is something, I'll give you the best in me.
Its just the get up and go that we lack to be gone
'cause living you and loving life is all I wanna know
baby here take my forever, I'm a better man if I'm loving you.

Well Steve still likes to open the doors by himself so we stand 'bout 3 feet in back of him and Isabel measures out her steps so it don't look like she's got to wait on him
And in my life there are miracles and I have lived to tell that in my life there was one love, and I will love as well for the rest of mine. Isabel.
