I wish you`d never blown out the candle
I wish you`d never turned out the light
It didn`t help me see
It didn`t help me fight
And it put a waking sleep in my night
Sleep in my night
Why`d you ever come here from Dallas
Memphis couldn`t offer a thing that you don`t
Already have and you can`t even sing
And you weren`t looking for a husband
And you wouldn`t choose me if I was one and the
Whole world knows it.
I know that you know it too
Chorus
Why don`t you ever listen to the words?
Why don`t you ever listen to the words?
It`s the stuff in the middle I know you`ve
never heard
I`m not interested in specifics
I don`t want to push too fast
I`m only concerned with happiness
and that`s not too much to ask
I wish you`d....
I wish you`d never covered my threshold
I wish you`d never stood in my door it didn`t help
me much and it hurt me more
And you could`ve let me know before
Well the whole world knew it
You must have has some idea
Why don`t you ever listen to the words?
