How can you throw twenty years away What about your kids and the words they pray I promise to be just like I was before But you can´t hold a man When he´s holding out for more
I found another letter in your shirt I can´t even tell ya what´s left to hurt From the top of my head to the soles of my shoes Guess some women win Some women lose
You´ve been talking in your sleep Every secret that you keep And I know you got a woman you´ve been dreaming of Every second of the night I´ve been holding on so tight Cause I know I´m not the woman you´ve been dreaming of
I picked up your clothes from the laundry mat Brushed back the feather from your hat
Washed all the dishes and swept up the floors But you can´t keep a man When he´s looking for the door Anymore
You´ve been talking in your sleep Every secret that you keep And I know you got a woman you´ve been dreaming of Every second of the night I´ve been holding on so tight Cause I know I´m not the woman you´ve been dreaming of
When you´re calling out her name I´ll be taking all the blame Cause I know I´m not the woman that you really love
