Love Not Dead

Daniel Johnston - Fear Yourself (2003)

It was love at first sight

And when I talked to her

It was the beginning of a real good time

All I knew was her

And when I came around

Love had lingered on my mind

She said on the telephone

She wished me well

I was so alive with a spell

Then as I hung up early

I realized

I've been dead for so long

All my memories of her

Like a fading light I suffer

Thinking of our love for so long

Back in the early days

I saw a lot of her

She was the coolest girl in town

And when I saw her standing there

Everything was all right

I took a journey in my mind

And as I saw her beauty

She was so kind

That was a good time

Everyday we met it was wild

I felt like a child

I loved to see her smile

And as I played piano

I was so inspired

I always had a real good time

And when last we met

I just can't forget

I thought for sure I loved her bad

I just can't ignore

Her loving response

I always knew she'd be all right

She made me think I was okay

And the love seemed so real

I still got feelings for her

And when I'm on tour

Singing about her forever

I'll remember her blessings and the good times we had

I really tried to play the game of love

And I hate to loose

Maybe I can win somehow

And so I'll dream of her

For a thousand years

Until I see another girl

That's the way it always was

That's the way it always was

That's the way it always was
