He's not listening when I tell him
How my day went
He didn't notice I got a new dress on
He didn't walk up behind me
Just to kiss me in the kitchen
The moment he got home
He won't tell me that I'm beautiful
when I'm sitting on the bed tonight
in a t -shirt with no makeup on.
He didn't write a love letter to me
on a little scrap of paper he found
in the front seat of his car.
He didn't bring in backyard flowers
or call me darling
As we laughed at them sitting in a jar
Tonight he won't talk
about the TV lights
Dancing in my blue eyes
Just before he takes me in his arms
But I stay because
Sometimes he does
Well, sometimes
He loves me more than I deserve
to be loved
And sometimes
He's more than a heart like
mine
He doesn't know how to say the things that
someone who loves you really should know how to say
He didn't take me dancing outside
under a rented moonlight
Just to see the smile on my face
Tonight he won't hold his breath
Then tell me that he's fallen
Just before I realize
there's no words anyway
But I stay because some
times He does
Sometimes
He loves me more than I deserve
to be loved
And sometimes
he's more than a heart like mine
Could ever, ever, ever, ever,
ever give up
Tonight he didn't make me feel
like I'm the only woman in the world
He didn't say my name
in a whisper so sweet
Tonight He didn't make me forget
All the trouble in my heart
Or teach me what the word
Hallelujah means
But I stay because
Sometimes he really does,
yes, yes, yes
I stay, I stay,
I stay because sometimes he does you
