You said loving you and leaving
you is the hardest thing to do
To give my foot another chance
Yeah, but every time I see someone
Though I have not always been faithful,
Well, I'm sometimes seen at parties,
just sitting by the phone
Wondering if I called you,
Cause when I see the looks of lovers,
my heart sinks like a stone
Wishing I could be there with them,
instead of going back alone
But you said loving you and leaving
you is the hardest thing to do
To give my foot another chance
Yeah, but every time I see someone
Though I have not always been faithful,
Heavy river, walk the empty street
s until the break of dawn.
And maybe hear that lonesome
sparrow sing his lonesome song
Didn't make you feel any better,
you're like a stranger less alone
Though he didn't know you both had
been a thousand miles from home
But you said you loved me and even
used the hardest thing to do
To give my foot another chance
Yeah, but every time I see someone
Though I have not always been faithful,
