There ain't nothing in this world that'll always stay the same
But when things fall apart, we'll have each other to blame
Sometimes I dream of singing with my love right by my side
Like Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner
Porter played the guitar and Dolly sang just like a bird
Dolly had the prettiest voice Nashville ever heard
And Porter put 'er on his TV show, her smile lit the screen
Dolly was prettiest woman Nashville'd ever seen
Oh, they both wrote songs and they both had fans
Some say Porter used her, some say she had other plans
But no one really cared when they stepped up to that mike
'Cause for just a few moments they knew what heaven sounded like
Sometimes I dream of singing with my love right by my side
Like Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner
Their duets were serene and beautiful and free
Together they were magic, like a moon over the sea
Like the sunset colors of red and pink and yellow
The man had his girl, and the girl had her fellow
Yeah, he was her man, she was his sweetie pie
She was his girl and the apple of his eye
This anyone could tell as they stared up at the screen
The King of Country Music and his Country Music Queen
Sometimes I dream of singing with my love right by my side
Like Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner
Ten gallon hats, shiny white boots
Shimmering dresses and shimmering suits
A million hit records, and a billion wide smiles
And to think maybe one day he could've taken her down the aisle...
So like all good things, this too came to an end
They went from being lovers to simple friend and friend
I hope that if I one day I set the woman I love free
She'll turn around, smile one last time, and cry a tear for me
Singing I-e-I-e-I-e-I will always love you
'Cause that's the kind of thing Miss Dolly Parton would do
Sometimes I dream of singing with my love right by my side
Like Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner
