been
everything that a man shouldn't be
I've done things a man won't do
And it's hard to believe
what she sees in me
After all that I put her through
But I guess that she knows
when the bar's finally closed,
she's the one that I'm thinking of
You could leave in the name
of a heart full of pain,
but she stays in the name of love
She cries in the name of a feeling
that same old feeling
each time I'm gone
She knows when I say
I'll be home right away
That it might take all night long
She tries to pretend I
won't hurt her again
When Lord knows she's hurt enough
She could leave in the name
of a heart full of pain
But she stays in the name of love
I go to the same old places,
the same old faces are all I see
But I stay every night
in the dim red light
while she waits all alone for me
She could have any man
in the palm of her hand,
but I guess that she cares too much
She could leave in the name
of a heart full of pain,
but she stays in the name of love
She cries in the name of feeling
that same old feeling each time I'm gone
She knows when I say
I'm going home right away
That it might take all night long
She tries to pretend I won't
hurt her again
When Lord knows she's hurt enough
She could live in the name
of a heart full of pain
But she stays in the name of love
She could live in the name
of a heart full of pain,
but she stays in the name of love.
