| As I walked through the door and my eyes fit the darkness
|
| I saw him alone at the bar
|
| I went over to him said you may not know me
|
| But I sure do know who you are
|
| Don’t worry my anger was spent long ago
|
| And only the memory remains
|
| But lord how I suffered, sometimes I still wonder
|
| And maybe now you can explain
|
| Tell me how could I love her so much
|
| And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
|
| How did you know how to hold her and please her
|
| How did you know what to do
|
| After all of the time I spent learning to love her
|
| And be what she needed me to
|
| Tell me how could I love her so much
|
| And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
|
| He said friend let me buy you a drink
|
| And I’ll tell you a story that’s sad but it’s true
|
| How I loved her and held her 'til some drifter stole her
|
| From me like I stole her from you
|
| I guess no one can own her, her heart’s like a soldier of fortune
|
| Her love’s like the wind
|
| Still all I can think of is finding her new love
|
| And asking this question of him
|
| How could I love her so much |
| And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
|
| How did you know how to hold her and please her
|
| How did you know what to do
|
| After all of the time I spent learning to love her
|
| And be what she needed me to
|
| Tell me how could I love her so much
|
| And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
|
| How could I love her so much
|
| And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
|
| How did you know how to hold her and please her (fade out) |
