Dedication: To Buzz Rabin who gave me a place to stay when I first went to Nashville and has been a part of my life ever since (see my book 'just for the record'). This is one of the finest love songs I've ever heard.
BABY YOUR THE ONLY DREAM I'VE EVER HAD COME TRUE
THERE'S SO MUCH MORE TO REACH FOR THANKS TO YOU
NOW I CAN CLIMB THIS MOUNTAIN, BABE, THERE WAS A TIME ID STOP
IF YOU'LL JUST HOLD THE LADDER BABY ILL CLIMB TO THE TOP
IF YOU'LL JUST STAND BESIDE ME ALL THE WAY
ILL DO ALL THE THINGS THAT DIDN'T MATTER YESTERDAY, HEY
AND ILL BE EVERYTHING THIS MAN CAN BE BEFORE I STOP
IF YOU'LL JUST HOLD THE LADDER BABY ILL CLIMB TO THE TOP
THINGS JUST STARTED CHANGING WITH YOUR TOUCH
