Now I’m Sitting on my terrace lost in the stars
Listenin’ to the sounds of the sad guitars
Been thinking it all over and I’ve thought it all through
I made up my mind to give myself to you
I saw the first fall of snow
I saw the flowers come and go
I don’t think that anyone ever really knew
I made up my mind to give myself to you
I’m giving myself to you, I am
From Salt Lake City to Birmingham
From East L.A. to San Antone
I don’t think I can bear to live my life alone
My eye is like a shooting star
It looks at nothing here or there, at nothing near or far
No one ever told me, it’s just something I knew
I made up my mind to give myself to you
If I had the wings of a snow white dove
I’d preach the gospel, the gospel of love
A love so real, a love so true
I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you
Take me out traveling, you’re a traveling man
Show me something I’ll understand
I’m not what I was, things aren’t what they were
I’ll go far away from home with her
I traveled the long road of despair
I met no other traveler there
A lot of people gone, a lot of people that I knew
I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you
My heart’s like a river, a river that sings
It just takes me a while to realize things
I see you in the sunrise, I’ve seen the dawn
I’ll lay down beside you, when everyone is gone
Now I’ve traveled from the mountains to the sea
And I hope the gods go easy with me
I knew you’d say yes, ‘cause I’m saying it too
I’ve made up my mind to give myself to you
