(Merle Haggard) |
|
I came here because I knew I'd be welcome |
|
And because somehow you always understand |
|
You seem to have a way with lonely people |
|
And you always were my greatest helping hand. |
|
Now once again I'm here to take advantage |
|
Though I don't deserve the arms I left alone |
|
I need to know there's someone who still loves me |
|
And I need a shoulder to cry on. |
|
I overlooked the love you tried so hard to give |
|
The love I never seemed to understand |
|
I always stay just long enough to hurt you |
|
And what little love I gave was second hand. |
|
Now once again I'm here to take advantage |
|
Cause once again the one I love is gone |
|
I need to know there's someone who still loves me |
|
And I need a shoulder to cry on. |
