And when his [C] daddy would visit he'd [G] come along
When they gathered 'round and started talking

through the back yard we'd go walking
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows to my surprise
|[Chorus]
|The [G] only one who could ever reach me

He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right
Can I get away again tonight

[F] How well I remember
[C] The look that was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
[D] Takin' time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all mine
[G] Learnin' from each other's knowing
Lookin to see how much we'd grown and
|[Chorus]
|The [C] only one who could ever reach me
|[F] Was the son of a prea[C]cher man
