The Woman Before Me lyrics

I can see you turn away
When I ask what for
You say it isn't anything
But I'm not sure

Somethin' underneath the skin
Won't let you be
And you try to keep it in
But I can see

The woman before me
Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I'll never put you through
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you

Sometimes in an argument
It will show
When you go a little farther than
You meant to go

I know you don't mean the things
That you say
I just wanna ease the pain
That's in your way
The woman before me
Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I'll never put you through
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you

If there are sorrows that bring back a tear
Don't let them keep us apart
You ought to know you've got nothing to fear
Here in my heart

'Cause you and I will never be
Like the past
Whatever kind of memories
That you have

Nothin's gonna hurt you now
Can't you see
I already made a vow
That I can keep

But the woman before me
Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I'll never put you through
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you
