You love to put me down each time you're out with your girlfriends They ask you if I treat you bad you say that all depends Well don't you know they realize that you've been slippin' round They know how you carry on when I go out of town You've got no room to criticize with words you know will hurt I'm still countin' lipstick stains on your dirty shirt People pass me on the street and shake their heads in pity While I wait at home you've got a girl in ever city Yes I'll admit it what you say is true But I only run around because you do it too If we could have what we once had how happy we could be I won't cheat again on you if you won't cheat on me You'll never know how many nights I've stayed awake and cried Ashamed of what I did to you and feelin' sick inside Now I can walk away from him without a backward glance I'm grateful that you're big enough to give me a second chance Now many nights in many towns I've wrestled with the blues I never found the nighttime girl who could fill your shoes How I wish I'd swallowed pride and come to you before You'll never find another man who could love you more Yes I'll admit it what you say is true But I only run around because you do it too If we could have what we once had how happy we could be I won't cheat again on you if you won't cheat on me I won't cheat again on you if you won't cheat on me
