It's always nice to find
A lady love along the way
I'm grateful for your time
You know I, I'd really like to stay

But I'm a singer not a lover
And I got some ground to cover
Ya know Texas is expecting me today

And 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 better just forget it
I know some day you'll regret it
I don't want you to be sorry that I came

But 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 are true

Though a thousand ears will hear me
In some smokey crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me
I will only see your face
Someday I will say goodbye
It's a song I've sung before
So let me say it now
Before I hurt you anymore

I can't take you where I'm going
I can't keep my dream from growing
It's something that I built my whole life on

But 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 are true

Though a thousand ears will hear me
In some smokey crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me
I will only see your face

And 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 are true

Though a thousand ears will hear me
In some smokey crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me
I will only see your face
