I never wanted no kind of trouble
I never wanted no one but you
I was just trying to be a part time poet
You were the one who spoke of the truth
Words mean nothing if you know you don't mean it
Love means nothing if the intention ain't right
I'll wear my words and always intend to
If you were to want to walk with me tonight
I never wanted no kind of trouble
I never wanted no one but you
I was out on a ledge doing something unstable
You were the one who pulled me back through
I never wanted no kind of trouble
I never wanted no one but you
Sing to me softly like the sparrows of springtime
They can't hold a candle when compared to you
Let's walk through the hills and down to the valley
Pause in the pasture when the city's in sight
Lay down and love me in the thorns or the flowers
Til the night comes due to swallow the light
I never wanted no kind of trouble
I never wanted no one but you
Like a secret safe from speech not spoken
You are the one that I'm holding onto
I never wanted no kind of trouble
I never wanted no one but you
