She's nothin' but a woman just another pretty face
|
You can't find another girl just to take her place
|
No use a makin' a fool of yourself you can't find a somebody else
|
But honey it don't work that way and I'm just kiddin' myself when I say
|
I'll forget someday cause honey real love it don't work that way
|
[ ac.guitar ]
|
It looks mighty good this smile I wear actin' like I just don't care
|
If anybody mentions yesterday I'll just try to laugh it away
|
But honey it don't work...
|
|
I can walk around puttin' on there tellin' everybody that I don't care
|
But it's hard to hide the pain inside when a lonely heart is missin' you
|
And the love that we once knew
|
|
Cause I've tried to take the memory of all the love you gave to me
|
And put it off out of my heart so I can make a brand new start
|
But honey it don't work...
