A Double Dose of You

I’ve crossed plain and desert, to the ocean shore.

I’ve topped the shining mountain, seen the eagle soar,

Been lonely in the city and welcomed at a shack,

seen places that’ll never, ever want me back.

But, I’ve had the pleasure of a love that’s true,

all I really needed was a double dose of you.

I’ve swum in mighty rivers, struggled in the current,

And drug my lonesome self o’er bridges I have burnt.

I was just a soulless drifter upon the sea of life,

never thought I’d take you for my lovin’ wife.

Now my life so full, never feelin’ blue,

All I really needed was a double dose of you.
