[00:00.00]Too Busy Being in Love (Re-Recorded) - Doug Stone
[00:12.64]If I had taken the time
[00:14.89]To write down a few lines
[00:17.46]Every time that you crossed this heart of mine
[00:22.83]I'd put them all in a book
[00:25.22]How much time would that have took
[00:27.86]The words in years have a way  you're slipping back
[00:32.93]Oh no  too bad
[00:39.05]There goes the chance that I had
[00:44.52]I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
[00:49.58]Given old Mr  Shakespeare  a run for his money
[00:56.70]Written the words to the prettiest tune
[01:01.04]That would never leave a dry eye in the room
[01:07.66]My only excuse for not doing enough
[01:15.04]Well  I was too busy  being in love
[01:19.72]Yes  I was too busy  being in love
[01:36.07]Brand new phrases appear
[01:38.45]Every time you are near
[01:41.14]All these words you inspire after all these years
[01:46.14]But I never reached for a pen
[01:49.14]Break the mood that I'm in
[01:51.51]Before I knew it  the words were gone again
[01:57.20]Oh no  too bad
[02:02.97]There goes the chance that I had
[02:07.74]I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
[02:13.36]Given old Mr  Shakespeare a run for his money
[02:19.43]Written the words to the prettiest tune
[02:24.49]That would never leave a dry eye in the room
[02:31.21]My only excuse for not doing enough
[02:38.40]Well  I was too busy  being in love
[02:43.24]Yes  I was too busy  being in love
[02:49.99]I could have written the part to make young lovers crazy
[02:57.68]I could have written the movie for Hepburn and Tracey
[03:03.44]The beautiful song and it starts with your name
[03:09.26]Written my way into fortune and fame
[03:15.55]But I have no regrets for not doing enough
[03:22.86]Well  I was too busy  being in love
[03:27.77]Yes  I was too busy  being in love
