WERE THE ONLY GIRL FOR ME

I LOOKED INTO YOUR EYES

AND SAW YOUR DEEP COMPLEXITY

WHEN I SAW YOU, I FELL IN LOVE

IT WAS BUT A WEEK AGO

NOW YOU'VE CHANGED YOUR MIND, AND YOU'VE DECIDED

IT'S TIME TO LET ME GO...

 

AND I NEVER GOT THE CHANCE

TO WRITE YOUR NAME OUT IN THE SNOW

WITH A HEART AROUND IT.  YOU WERE GONE

BEFORE I HAD TO GO

BUT, I'VE BEEN DRINKIN' BEER ALL NIGHT

AND I KNOW YOU'LL BE IMPRESSED

WHEN I DEMONSTRATE MY PENMANSHIP

AND HIGH BROW CLEVERNESS

 

JUST GIVE ME ONE MORE CHANCE

FOR ME TO PROVE TO YOU YOU'RE IN

MY HEART AND MIND, AND EVERY

FLUID OUNCE THAT I HOLD IN

JUST SAY THE WORD, I'LL LET IT FLY

IN THE BRIGHT LIGHT OF THE MOON

WHEN YOU SEE YOUR NAME, IN STEAMING YELLOW LETTERS

YOU'LL BE FALLING FOR ME SOON

 

NO, I DIDN'T WIN YOUR HEART THAT NIGHT

IT WAS OVER PRETTY QUICK

YOU LEFT ME STANDIN' IN THE SNOW

MY RIGHT HAND FROZEN TO MY...CAR DOOR HANDLE.
