Standing at the station
Waiting for the train
I still can't believe today
You're leaving me again
One man does the cross word
And tries to pass the time
I would do the same thing
If I had mine
[Chorus]
Where do you run
When you run away from me
Where is the sun now summer's gone
Where do you run
Where do you go to be alone
Where do you run
Baby please come home
Don't you know it hurts me
When you leave this way
All that's left are angry words
I wish I didn't say,
You're a moving target
That I couldn't hit
You're the face that makes me cry
Girl I've missed it
[Chorus]
Standing at the station
Waiting for you to return
And I know by tonight
I'll b alright
I know one thing for sure
I need you more
[Chorus]
Speechless
Oooh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah
Tragic, completely
When the one you love keeps runnin games with your heart
I feel the static, inside me
Should I stay, should I go, I don't know where to start
Coz baby you and I don't you know we got something that's beautiful
And yes you're the one even though that I know it's illogical
Cos baby
[Chorus:]
You've got something over me
And right now it's all a mystery
This thing's taken over you see
No matter what I do, I'm speechless over you
It don't make any sense at all
But I'm here to always take the fall
Baby, here's the proof
No matter what you do, I'm speechless over you
Panic, should I let go?
Life ain't as easy as a simple ABC
I've had it, baby you know
You've been steering that wheel to somewhere I can't see
Coz baby you and I don't know we got something incredible
And yes you're the one even though that I know it's illogical
Coz baby
[Chorus]
Why can't you give your heart away
What can I do to make you stay
Just when I try to walk away
Something tells me
[Repeat chorus]
You don't know, what it's like
Day after day, night after lonely night
Thinking about all the good times we never had
I saw you poster on the walll
It didn't look like u at all
You always said that you could sing
I guess I wasn't listening
You changed you name a thousand times
And ending up with one that rhymes
Your hair your clothes you pretty face
How'd you get your soul replaced
The good times with the bad
They're all gone it's just so sad
[Chorus:]
You were my best chance
Now I'll never be the same
And with your last glance
I knew I'd lost the only friend
That knew me, so deeply
And understood completely
That I needed you
More that you needed me
You're my best chance
I heard from you not long ago
You'd be in town to do a show
You said you put me on the list
Well that's a show I'm gonna miss
I'll keep you as a memory
For now that's how it's got to be
I'll take it like a man
And tell the world I'm your biggest fan
The good times with the bad
They're all gone it's just so sad
[Chorus]
You were my best chance for love
You were my best chance for love
You don't know what it's like
Day after day, night after lonely night
Thinking about all the good times we never had
The good times with the bad
They're all gone it's just so sad
[Chorus]
You were my best chance for love
You were my best chance for love
You were my best chance for love
You don't know, what it's like
Day after day, night after night
I imagine your presence is near
I open my eyes and see you're not there
I wish I could hold you and say we'll be ok
But it's gone too far
Remember the first day we met
I made you a promise you'd never regret
Now all that you are is all that I am
It's such a shame
[Chorus]
Well I've tried so many times
But I just can't understand
Before you go, let me know
Here I stand
Sometimes things aren't what they seem
We say things in anger we don't really mean
Act without thinking it's not really me
Deep inside...
Believe me 'cause I never would
Do anything to try to hurt you
But I guess it means nothing you're going away
It's just too late
[Chorus]
Well I've cried so many tears
And you need to understand
Before you go let me know
Here I stand
Arms open I know I've done wrong
Forgive me, don't leave me here alone (I'm all alone...)
Here I stand
[Chorus]
Well I've tried so many times and you need to understand
Before you go, let me know
Before you go, let me know
Before you go, let me know
Here I stand...
Goodbyes are so sad, so blue
Girl my life won't be the same without you
No one else could love you, in the way I do
It anybody hurts you
I'll break in two
I tell you
[Chorus:]
The favourite won't win
Not in every race it's running
I still believe I'll get lucky
That my time will come
When I get a hold you closer then anyone
Some people
They'll promise you things
They'll show you credit cards and Gucci rings
When you realise, something more is missing
When you open your eyes
That's where I'll be
[Chorus]
I can't believe girl, the way you look today
Every time I need you, you're so far away
I hate to see you, caught up in the chase
I don't want to finish here forever
In second place
[Chorus]
How long, long is the road
To make you, love me
Love me again
Tell me
How long, long should I wait
What would it take to make you
Come back again
[Chorus x2]
Dear darling
Just writing to say
Been together so long now
That I can't do this face to face
Thoughts of you
Are weighing on my mind
I know it's going to hurt you so bad
But now I gotta say goodbye
I gotta feeling deep inside of me
And it's tearing me apart
From the heart
[Chorus:]
Tell me, how I am supposed to say these words to you
How am I to tell you what we've got is through
Been my best friend for so long
Can't believe that I'm doing you wrong
How am I suppose to go on each day
Seeing you and not knowing what to say
Could have been such and easy thing to do
But the problem is, I still love you
I've been trying so hard
Just wanna make it okay
But I'm not strong enough to tell you
Baby how my feelings have changed
This can't be right coz it feels so wrong
The hardest part of loving you girl
Is knowing that I've got to let go
I gotta feelin deep inside of me
And it's tearing me apart
From the heart
[Chorus:]
Maybe one day I'll find that star
That leads me to where you are
Cause baby I'm losing you
Yeah yeah
Come to a bridge that we can't cross
Sailing an ocean far too far
So from the heart
[Chorus]
[Repeat chorus]
I wasn't looking for another lover
I didn't need another long lost friend
I know that feelin' when I start to fall
For the same games
And the same pain again
All I wanted was my moment in you deep blue eyes
All I need was a minute now I feel like I could die
[Chorus:]
Can we dance
Is it safe to take a chance
Can we move
Like we've got nothin' to lose
Can we touch
Like it don't mean all that much
Cause it'd be easier to say goodbye
And never have to wonder why
All we have to do it lie and chance
I made a promise that I'd just forget you
I swore I'd never even say your name
And I knew that if you let me spend one night
That my whole life would change
I was hopin' you'd be open to a walk in the rain
Now you're leavin' and it's feeling like your drivin' me insane
[Chorus]
Dance across a crowded room
The flashing lights go round
The band goes boom
Like a bullet through the heart
You know you killed me from the start
And now it's tearing me apart
Can we dance, is it safe to take a chance
Can we move, can we move, like we've got nothing to lose,
Can we touch like it don't mean all that much
Can we dance, is it safe to take a chance
Can we move, can we move, like we've got nothing to lose
Can we touch like it don't mean all that much
They all said it wouldn't last
That it was never meant to be
Thought commitment was too much to ask
Just another hopeless dream
We stood our ground, and kept our faith
Held on to all the things that we believed
Made it through the rest of our time
Now we'll let the doubters see
[Chorus:]
We are stronger than ever
Growing day by day
No matter what they say
We are stronger together
Don't care what they say
Got to keep our faith
Keep our faith
Did it matter our decision
They may have a drudge to bare
But if they only had our vision
They'd understand the way we feel
[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what they say
You know we gonna make it anyway
Cos' we're stronger together
[Chorus]
Last night I dreamt you were lying beside me
I smelt the sweetness of your hair
You gently reached out to remind me
Of how it used to be
And I almost believed that this morning I'd find you still there
[Chorus:]
But here in the real world
I miss you madly
In the real world
I'm coping badly with losing you
What am I to do
Here in the real world
Without you
Last night I dreamt of a different ending
Everything just seemed to work out somehow
I saw that someday I could smile again without pretending
In was so sure I'd wake up and I wouldn't need you right now
[Chorus]
Friends tell me I must not look back
There are silver rails just ahead on the track
And my stars say I'm getting over the fact that you're gone
[Chorus]
I'm here in the real world
Without
Lately you've been acting crazy,
Call my number then you hang up baby
Girl what do you think's going on
No one else I want to please me
I don't know why you won't believe me
I would never do you that wrong
What we've got
Is hanging by a thread
How did you
Get this inside your head
Because of you
I'm having second thoughts
All the fear, all the doubt
Can't you see?
[Chorus:]
You're pushin me out
You're pushin me in
The position is clear
From where I'm standing
You're always talking bout love
You're too demanding
You've got your head in the clouds
Well happy landing
You know you're pushin me out
What's this you been saying bout me
About how you can't breathe without
What book are you reading today
Confused, don't know what I'm doing
Dreaming of a bed with me & you in
I should be walking away (yeah)
Me and you
We could have it all
Now our backs
Are up against the wall
It may be
A little late for us
All the time you scream and shout
Don't you know:..
[Repeat chorus to end]
What ya doin' tonight
I wish I could be
A fly on your wall
Are u really alone
Whose stealin' your dreams
Why can't I breathe
You in to my life
So tell me
What would it take
To make you see that I'm alive
[Chorus:]
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
Wait, I already am
Saw your face in the crowd
I call out your name
You don't hear a sound
I keep tracing your steps
Each move that you make
Wish I could read
What goes through your mind
Oh baby
Wish I could touch me
With the colours of your life
[Chorus]
I am nothing without you
Just a shadow passing through
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine to night
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
If I was invisible
If I was invisible
Wait, I already am
I still remember how your lips felt
And how your kiss melted mine
Oh baby
I still get shills when I hear our song
'cause it takes me back in time
I lie awake and your memory haunts me
I start to shake 'cause it kills me you don't want me
[Chorus:]
If I told you that I don't wanna hold you
I'd be lyin'
'cause I'm dying for you
If I told you it don't hurt me to see you again
I'd be lyin'
'cause I'm cryin' for you
I miss the touch of your body so much
That I'm ready to jump outta my skin
The way you move makes me crazy
I know
That we'll never be together again
If tears me up when I think of your smile, girl
And all the love that's been missin' from my world
[Repeat chorus]
I never told you a lie before
And I won't start now, don't know even how
'cause girl I'd be lyin', oh I've bee dyin', I'd be lyin' to you
[Chorus]
What, what would you do
If I was alone somewhere with you
Would you want to explore
Do something we've
Not done before
Please give into me
I need it more
[Chorus]
I need a girl to fix me
Who can't resit me
Does more then kiss me
She turns me on
Who aims to please me
If you think that you can fix me
Let's get it on
Do you wake up sometimes
Thinking of things you want to put right
Would, would it be ok
If I was to stay, just for one night
Please give into me
I need it more
[Chorus x2]
Do you feel playing with fire,
I'm burning up with my desire,
Now I'm certain I need you to come, come on over
[Repeat chorus]
It's everything about you
Girl this is why I like you like I do
It's everything about you
Your face, got them lips I wanna taste
Got them light, brown eyes
And that smile
Girl you got yourself together
Your hair, French tip toes
Soft hands
So freshly manicured
Girl I'm sure
Ain't no one can look no better
[Bridge:]
There ain't no where
That I can take you girl
Without you shut'n it down
With that smooth skin tone
There ain't noone you'd meet
That wouldn't wanna snatch you up
Nad take you home
And get you home
And get you all alone
[Chorus:]
Girl this is why I like you like I do
It's everything about you
I'm so into you
Girl I like it when you do me
Like you do
It's everything about you, yeah
It's everything bout you girl
Classy yet so sassy, nasty
Sexy from front to back
From where I am at
I can't wait to buckle that
Your hips, your thighs, your waist
You back. Your curves, your shape
Girl you got everything
Just right for me
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Girl you stay, on my mind
Girl, all of the time
Drivin' me crazy, feelin you baby
And I can't hide the way I feel about you baby
I don't wanna try
[Chorus]
I like it how you're lovin' me
I like it how u make me feel
I like it when I'm next to you
Likin' all the things you do
[Repeat chorus]
We talk every day
We don't say what's going through our minds
It's just a way of passing time
I wanna believe I'm all you need
But the truth is in your eyes
I need to know what's inside
You're hiding away like you're just too scared to try
Don't wanna hear a heart break
But you're slowly breaking mine
[Chorus:]
Tell me what's going on
Am I alone?
Here in this crazy world of love
Baby something is wrong
I should have known
That here in this crazy world of love
I'd feel lost, don't let go
'cause I need you by my side, oh
Here in this crazy world of love
I try and understand what I can
But I'm losing who you are
What used to be near seems so far
You're hiding away
Like you're just too scared to try
Don't wanna hear a heart break
But you're slowly breaking mine
[Chorus]
It's heard the not knowing
Just where we are going
But in this crazy world is where we belong
I'd feel lost, don't let go
'cause I need you by my side. Oh
Here in this crazy world of love
Here in this crazy world of love
Here in this crazy world of love
Well I did it again we're not talking and then
You keep throwing things and starting a fight
It's been hell of a day and it doesn't look much better tonight, oh
No
Cause I'll be sleeping alone, I'll be out in the could
And I still won't have a clue,
I swear I'd just walk away
If it was anybody else but you
It was anybody else
Slammed the door to the car, but I won't get too far
Cause I didn't bother to take the keys
By the time I got back
It's all over and you're smiling at me
And I know that no one tears at my heart
Even when were apart,
Or can hurt me the way that you do
I swear I'd just walk away,
If it was anybody but you
My love,
I say I'm sorry
You say forget it
I say I need you
That doesn't cut it
You got me down on my knees
But I do it for love
I've been sleeping alone, I've been out in the cold
And I still won't have a clue,
I swear I'd just walk away
If it was anybody else but you
My love if it was anybody else
Anybody else
Well I did it again we're not talking and then
You keep throwing things and starting a fight
Would you hold it against me
If I just see him one more time?
Just so I can make certain
I can leave him behind.
Would it make any difference
If I just hold him once again?
Now you know that I love you
But have I forgotten him?
He was my love
Till you came my way
Now I can't help but wonder
Have I made a mistake.
Just suppose I remember
The things he used to say
After our wedding day.
Would you hold it against me
If I just see him once again?
Then I'll know that I love you
And that I've forgotten him.
For he was my love
Till you came my way
Now I can't help but wonder
We're like summer and winter
We're not one bit alike
We're like satin and cinders
I'm definitely not your type
Well, then what are we doin' in love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
Why were you someone I couldn't resist
What are we doin' in love.
We're like paper and matches
Well probly have our share of fights
We're like roses and switches
It's gonna be hard but we've got to try
Oh, what are we doin' in love
What are we doin' in love in a mess like this
What are we doin' in love
What are we gonna tell all our friends
You don't have to like someone to love someone
That rule was made to be broken
But if we have to say goodbye to a life we've gotten
used to
What are we doin' in love then.
We're like sun up and sun down
People say we're never gonna last
We're like uptown and downtown
You like it slow and I like it fast
So what are we doin' love
What are we doin' love in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
What are we gonna tell all our friends
You don't have to like someone to love someone
That rule was made to be broken
But if we have to say goodbye to a life we've gotten
used to
I know you belong to somebody new
But tonight you belong to me
Although you belong
To somebody else
Tonight you belong to me
Although we're apart
You're part of my heart
And tonight you belong to me
Way down by the stream
How sweet it will seem
Once more just to dream
In the moonlight
My honey I know
With the dawn
That you will be gone
But tonight you belong to me
Way down, way down along the stream
How very, very sweet it will seem
Once more just to dream
In the silvery moonlight
My honey I know
With the dawn
That you will be gone
But tonight you belong to me
Hopelessly the ghost of me sinks down into a chair
And underneath the cushion there's a ribbon from her hair
Just a crumpled up reminder that my daughter's only here
For six weeks ever summer and Christmas every other year.
The role of part-time mother it's the toughest role I
play
Oh, my name's up there in neon lights but Lord what a
price I pay
Why, the only thing it cost was giving up our used-to-
be's
And my little angel baby by the name of Shelly.
Bravely I step back into my room, it's only cheap veneer
And I die inside till summertime or Christmas time is
near
When up the stairs comes all my prayers yellin' mom it's
me, I'm here
For six weeks every summer and Christmas every other
year.
Just found a note my baby wrote she left it by the phone
She knew I'd need some extra strength to make it through
the night alone
It says I'll always love you mama although I'm only here
For six weeks every summer and Christmas every other
year.
Oh, I'd gladly give up all my fame if only I could hear
Ever since the day we first met I been thinking thoughts
I can't forget
Like you and me forever and yet one day of week is all I
ever get
Cause it's me today and her tomorrow that's the way you
want to live
I want to give you me forever but one day a week is all
you want to give
[ strings ]
B: Love is no excuse for what we're doing
What's more we know that two hearts could break
We tell ourselves we've got to have each other
But love is no excuse for us to make.
J: Sure we love each other and this could be so right
D: But not if someone else has got to pay
J: Our love for each other looks good in the night
B: But our love should never see the light of day.
It's been going on for much to long now
And our wrongs have mounted one by one
We tell ourselve it's 'cause we love each other
But love is no excuse for what we've done.
--- Instrumental ---
It's been going on for much to long now
And our wrongs have mounted one by one
We tell ourselve it's 'cause we love each other
Nobody likes losin' a friend or a lover
Nobody likes being alone
Nobody wants to feel like
somebody don't need them
Nobody likes being alone
So stop. Turn around
Just look at what we're doin'
Callin' it quits
Like a couple of fools
Oh, stop. Come back
Let's try a little harder
'Cause leavin's for unbelievers
And I believe that we're in love
Everyone's had a little heartache inside them
But that ain't no reason
for sayin' goodbye
And everyone's seen
a little thunder and lightenin'
But that ain't no reason to run and hide
So stop. Turn around
Just look at what we're doin'
Callin' it quits
Like a couple of fools
Oh, stop. Come back
Let's try a little harder
'Cause leavin's for unbelievers
Last time I saw him he sweetly kissed my lips
Last time I saw him he said I'll be back for more of this
Last time I saw him we were crying at the bus
I knew he hated leaving but he had to set us up
I gave him money, I know I invested well
Momma doesn't trust him but he loves me I can tell
Each day the greyhound arrives at nine o'clock
But I don't start my crying 'til that last mans gotten
[Chorus]
Last time I saw him, last time I saw my honey
Last time I saw him he was greyhound bound
But I'm still waiting here without a fear
That bus will someday turn around
I've had no letter, it's been six months maybe better
I tried forgettin' him but I love him more than ever
I have decided I've waited long enough
If there was nothing wrong he would return right on that
There must be trouble so I'm leavin' on the double
If he can't get to me I know he needs me desperately
I fall to pieces
Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces
How can I be just your friend
You want me to act
Like we've never kissed
You want me to forget
Pretend we've never met
And I try and I try
But I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces
I fall to pieces
Each time someone speaks your name
I fall to pieces
Time only adds to the pain
You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who loves me too
The way you used to do
But each time I go out with someone new
I've cried some since he went away
Oh, I miss him, I wanna kiss him, ain't it just the
way, babe
But it's no way at all, 'cause if you knew what I'm
going through
You'd know there's one thing wrong with the way I'm
living
Ain't got my baby no more
Chorus:
Hey, Mr. Dream Maker, send me a dream
This one is over, at least, that's what it seems
And so tonight when I turn out the light
Send me a new dream tonight
He didn't say much, just a little touch, and he was on
his way
He couldn't hold me, when he told me, he'd just faded
away
But it's no use crying 'cause what everybody tells me,
and they all seem to
know
There's one thing wrong with the way I'm living
Ain't got my baby no more
(Repeat chorus)
Hey, so tonight when I turn out the light
Send me a new dream tonight, (Mr. Dream Maker, send me
a new dream tonight)
Send me a new dream tonight, send me a new dream
tonight (Mr. Dream
Maker)
Send a dream, send me a dream
You want things your way
And I want them mine
And now we don't know
Just where to draw the line
How long can love survive
If we keep choosing sides
And who picks up the pieces
Every time two fools collide
You lay the blame on me
And I, the blame on you
But why do we keep finding faults
In everything we do
And how long can we keep right and wrongs
So cut and dry
And who picks up the pieces
Every time two fools collide
We can save our love
We still have the time
Oh, I know there must be a way
But we still haven't tried
To keep our hearts from breaking
Every time two fools collide
To keep our hearts from breaking
Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man
So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand
Like t-o-y or maybe s-u-r-p-r-i-s-e
But the words we're hiding from him now tear the heart
right out of me.
Our d-i-v-o-r-c-e becomes final today
Me and little J-o-e will be going away
I love you both and this will be pure h-e double L for me
How I wish that we could stop this d-i-v-o-r-c-e.
Watch him smile he thinks it's Christmas or his fifth
birthday
And he thinks c-u-s-t-o-d-y spells fun or play
I spell out all the hurtin' words and turn my head when I
speak
'Cause I can't spell away this hurt that's rolling down
my cheeks.
Our d-i-v-o-r-c-e becomes final today
Me and little J-o-e will be going away
I love you both and this will be pure h-e double L for me
Delta Dawn what's that flower you have on?
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
And did I hear you say he was ameetin' you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky
She's forty one and her daddy still calls her baby
All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy
'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand
Lookin' for a mysterious dark-haired man
In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on
Then a man of low degree stood by her side
And promised her he'd take her for his bride
Delta Dawn what's that flower you have on?
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
And did I hear you say he was ameetin' you here today
Crazy, I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wondering what in the world did I do?
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
I was born a country girl, I will die a country girl
My world is made of blue sky and sunshine
Greenfields and butterfilies
I'm so glad I'm a country girl.
Birds sing good morning country girl
And I sleep to the sounds of the whippoorwills
My day is made with puppys and kittens, meadows and
daisies
I'm so glad I'm a country girl.
Running over hills playing in the woods
Free breezes blowing
Honey bees warming, blackbirds a flying
Wonder where they're going?
Picking stick-me-tights off my gingom dress
Darkness is falling
Fire wood to carry, eggs to gather
Supper's ready mama's calling.
I was born a country girl and I will die a country girl
My world is made of blue sky and sunshine
Greenfields and butterfilies
I'm so glad I'm a country girl.
Oh, I'm so happy I'm a country girl. hmm...
When you made love to me tonight
I felt as if I'd died and gone to heaven
And if that's how it feels to die
Then lay me in your arms I'm thru with livin'
I'll get down on my knees and thank the good lord up
above
That Im the lucky girl you chose to love.
Chorus:
And I feel sorry for anyone who isn't me tonight
So if you think I'm braggin', well you're right
Your love has sent me flyin and I'm higher than a kite
And I feel sorry for anyone who isn't me tonight.
You've got the kind of body
That was made to give a man alot of pleasure
And what you're giving me tonight
Is more than anything on earth can measure
Every inch of you that's woman makes me that much more a
I've just about enjoyed all that I can stand.
Chorus:
And I feel sorry for anyone who isn't me tonight
So if you think I'm braggin', well you're right
Your love has sent me flyin and I'm higher than a kite
And I feel sorry for anyone who isn't me tonight.
Chorus:
And I feel sorry for anyone who isn't me tonight
So if you think I'm braggin', well you're right
Your love has sent me flyin and I'm higher than a kite
Sometimes when I'm down and alone
I feel just like a child with out a home
The love you give me keeps me hangin' on, honey
All I ever need is you.
Your my first love, your my last
Your my future, your my past
Ohhh loving you is all I ask, honey
All I ever need is you.
Winters come and then they go
And we watch the melting snow
Sure summer follows spring, all the things you do
Give me a reason to build my world around you.
(World around you)
Some men follow rainbows I am told
Some men search for silver, some for gold
But I found my treasures in my soul
And all I ever need is you.
Without love I'd never find the way
Through ups and downs of every single day
And I won't sleep at night until you say
Honey, all I ever need is you.
La, La, La, La, La, La
The love you give me keeps me hangin' on
Honey, all I'll ever need is you.
La, La, La, La, La, La
But I found my treasures in my soul
Honey, and all I ever need is you.
Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you what you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around to watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool-hearted man.
I hear you been askin' about me from some of my friends
But you better believe I'm not going through that again
You're the kind of man a woman thinks she can change
But the only thing changin' is my way of thinkin'
And I'm thinkin' that baby, someday;
Somebody's gonna give' you a lesson in losin'
Somebody's gonna do to you what you've been doin'
And I hope that I'm around to watch 'em knock you down
Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in hurtin'
Somebody's gonna leave you with your fire burnin'
With no way to put it out
There ain't no doubt
You're a fool-hearted man.
You're the kind of man a woman thinks she can change
The only thing changin' is my way of thinkin'
And I'm thinkin' that baby, someday
Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back what you've been givln'
And I hope that I'm around to watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
