I might be mistaken
But I feel like I hear the sound of a lonely heart breaking
Whenever I’m around you
It’s a lonesome sound somewhere between Loretta and Hank
And while we’re being frank I’ll tell you it just makes me wanna order
Another round or two
Then spin you around to that jukebox song
Forgive me if I’ve got it wrong
But I’ve just gotta say I think you belong
In the arms of a man
When the day is through
Who loves you
The way I do
I could be misperceiving
But there’s a dance a man does with his eyes when he’s been deceiving
The one he made his vows to
It’s a shift to left and then a shift to the right
Pretending not to see what’s in plain sight but I don’t have to tell you
How he’s been looking at you
We’ve all got our games we play
But darlin’ there’s a better way
Than to let your one and only life slip away
Waiting round for a man
Whose made other plans
You can wake me up if I’m dreaming
But I could swear I hear the sound of a neglected heart scheming
How to set itself free
Or maybe it’s a chorus of the angels of high
Bringing these hopeful tears to my eyes I can’t tell you
Maybe you can tell me?
If you’ll meet me here on the other side
Of that lonesome road, long and wide
I just want you to know that I can provide
The arms of a man
When the day is through
Who loves you
The way I do
