All the stories that she told me / Got me feeling wrecked and lonely / She married once when she was young / He was so much older, and pushed her around
So she broke her vows and moved on / Without a dime or a friend / She’s lived with other men since then / And somewhere along the way her heart caved in
Maybe if I play a sad song / And dim the lights real low / And if we dance real close / and if we sway real slow
She could feel / like love might still be real
She moves a little closer to me / Hiding her hands beneath her coat / I can’t find the nerve to draw her near / A kiss don’t cut as deep when it’s dulled by fear / Cause she’ll just pick up and move on / And what’s a simple man got left once she’s gone / The flesh is weak, the flesh is wanting / The mind is tired, the heart is longing
Maybe if I play a sad song / And dim the lights real low / And if we dance real close / and if we sway real slow
