How'd You Ever Take My Name

by Desmond Allen

/

about

I wrote this one for my wife who has stuck with be for 46 years.

lyrics

Thinking ‘bout the good times; thinking ‘bout the pain. You’re always bring in’ sunshine, I’m usually bringing rain. Never understand it; just not worthy of your claim. All I am was completed when you came. Sometimes I sit and wonder, how’d you ever take my name?

Thinkin’ ‘bout the good times; thinkin’ ‘bout the pain. Thinkin’ ‘bout tomorrow while
remembrin’ yesterday Ever Oh so thoughtful; I’m seldom just the same. Still you give to me
ev -’ry – thing. Sometimes I sit and wonder, how’d you ever take my name.

Thinkin’ ‘bout the good times; thinkin’ ‘bout the pain. You’re always bring/in’ sunshine, I’m
usually bringin’ rain. Sometimes I sit and wonder,
