It's always nice
to find a little love along the way
I'm grateful for your time,
you know I'd really like to stay
But I'm a singer, not a lover,
and I've got some ground to cov er
Oklahoma is expecting me today
Maybe I won't be a star
or make myself a name
And maybe I won't know another love
that's quite the same
But we'd better just forget it
I know someday I'll regret it
I don't want you to be
sorry that I came
Cause every time I sing a love song
I'll be singing it to you
Every time I sing a love song
I know all the words are true
Though a thousand ears will hear me
In some smoky crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me
I will only see your face
Now someday I will sing goodbye
It's a song I've sung before
So let me sing it now
Before I hurt you any more
And when love comes back to find you
I hope that she reminds you
Of the singer you once sang
your love song for
Oh, every time I sing a love song
I'll be singing it to you
Every time I sing a love song
I know all the words are true
Though a thousand ears will hear me
in some smoky crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me,
I will only see your face
Every time I sing a love song,
I'll be singing it to you
Every time I sing a love song,
I'll know all the words gone through
Though a thousand ears will hear me,
in some smoky crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me,
I will only see your face
Every time I sing a love song,
I'll be singing it to you
Every time I sing a love song,
I know I'll overcome truth
Though a thousand years will heal me
In some smoky, crowded place
Though a thousand lives will flee
