While they dance

How she holds him

Pulls him close

And loves him so

While he dreams of another

and counts the days

Until he lets her go



Same old story

That everybody knows

It's one heart holdin' on

One letting go



While they ride

Lord, he tells her

How they two

Will settle down

But she only hears the highway

And a voice

In some other town



And the harder

He holds her

The more she slips away



Same old story

That everybody knows

It's one heart holdin' on

One letting go
