Loretta Lynn - Success Lyrics
We used to go out walkin' hand in hand
You told me of the big things you had planned
It wasn't long till all your dreams came true
Success put me in second place with you
You have no time to love me anymore
Since fame and fortune knocked upon our door
Now I spend all my evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home
[ fiddle - steel ]
If we could share an evening now and then
Perhaps we'd find true happiness again
You'll never hold me like you used to do
It's funny what success has done to you
You have no time to love me...
