MY LIFE'S BEEN A PLEASURE (I STILL LOVE YOU AS I DID IN YESTERDAY)
(Jesse Ashlock)
Willie Nelson & Merle Haggard - 1982
WILLIE:
I still love you as I did in yesterday
Many years have gone by, though it seems just like a day
It's no wonder that I love you, you have been so kind and true
There will never be another, it will always be just you
We've come a long way together and you've proved your love is true
My life's been a pleasure and it's all because of you
And to me you'll always be just as sweet as flowers in May
And I'll still love you as I did in yesterday
(Instrumental Break)
MERLE:
I still love you as I did in yesterday
Many years have gone by, though it seems just like a day
It's no wonder that I love you, you've been so kind and true
There will never be another, it will always be just you
We've come a long way together and you've proved your love is true
And my life's been a pleasure all because of you
And to me you'll always be just as sweet as flowers in May
And I'll still love you as I did in yesterday
WILLIE:
And to me you'll always be just as sweet as flowers in May
And I'll still love you as I did in yesterday
