George Strait все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

You ain't never fell as far as when you fall in love
Except the fall you take when you've been loved and given up
When you have your heart and soul rubbed into the dirt
An eighty-proof bottle of tear-stopper will take away the hurt

Give me an eighty-proof bottle of tear-stopper
And I'll start feeling I forgot her
Get a little loose and lose her memory

Baby, what do you say what love comes down on you
Rainin' the blues on you
Like it's never gonna end on you
And all your dreams like leaves in the gutter go floatin' b
No, baby, I don't know why all God's children cry
I'll miss your skin, as golden as your wheatfield hair
And where you go I hope you find out there

I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Fighting was against the rules and it didnt matter why
When Dad got home I told that story just like Id rehearsed
Then stood there on those trembling knees and waited for the worst

And he said, Let me tell you a secret, about a fathers love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
He said daddies dont just love their children every now and then

Every time that someone walks in
She turns around to see if it's him
She checks her watch by the clock
I can't count the times he's stood her up
And one's too much

Chorus:
How could anybody break a heart like hers

I used to like making love and then gettin' up and never havin' to explain
I've always been free I never could see me dragin' no ball and chain
I like running around and being tied down never was my cup of tea
But since I've been holding an angel a little heaven's rubbing off on me
And I'm beginning to like just sittin' and holding hands
Looking into her eyes I'm thinking bout future plans
And then I get the feelin' that the life that I'd been leadin'
Ain't all it's cracked up to be

Chorus:
All my ex's live in Texas
and Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be
but all my ex's live in Texas
and that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen's in Abilene

"Am I Blue"

[Chorus:]
Am I blue, yes I'm blue.
It started the day I lost you.
Nobody ever missed somebody like I do.
Am I blue, am I blue.

I've seen ladies look at me
With want to in their eyes
But each time they do
I think of you and it makes me realize
Just any old love won't do

No, any old love won't do
I don't want to love

He rode up on a winter day
Steam risin’ off a streak face bay
Said you probably know my name
If you don’t it’s Arkansas Dave

He talked of fifteen years ago
And how he got the bay he rode
He said he killed a man in Ohio

She looked so much like a lady, but she was so much like a child.
A devil when she held me close, an angel when she smiled.
She always held it deep inside, but somehow I always knew
She's go away when the grass turned green and the sky turned baby blue.

[Chorus:]
And baby blue was the color of her eyes.
Baby blue like the Colorado skies.

What a rotten day this turned out to be
I still can't believe she'd leave so easily
She just got all her things threw 'em into a pile
Then she loaded her car and said after a while
She done this before, but this time, she didn't cry

That's why I'm sittin' on the front steps, starin' down the road
Wonderin' if she'll come back, this time I don't know

Isn't it like her to look so pretty
Like everything is alright
Like nobody cried all last night
Look at the sun, oh how it's shinin'
Almost a picture perfect day
Like nobody's goin' away

[Chorus]

"Blame It On Mexico"

In a bar in Acuna called Ma Crosby's I found myself not feeling any pain
I told a 'Frisco girl I'd come for freedom, she said she'd only come to catch a train
We struck up some idle conversation, traded all the troubles on our minds
One thing led to another in the evening and I fell in love again for my last time

[Chorus:]

You swear you've had enough, you're ready to give up
On that little lie they call love, then out of the blue clear sky

Fallin' right into your hands, like rain on the desert sand
It's the last thing you had planned then out of the blue clear sky.

Here she comes, a walkin' talkin' true love
Sayin' I been lookin' for you love

I've never once in my life met someone like you
I don't know what the word blue means
As long as I'm with you
You fill me so completely through everything you do
Blue is not a word at all
As long as I'm with you

Most of the time in my past

[I got the blue marlin blues]
First one off the dock, long before dawn
Headed to the blue water, won't take long
A box full of ballyhoo, rigged just right
Still hurtin' from that party last night

Thirty miles later, get the call lines in
Scramble' round the cockpit thinkin' we're gonna win

"Blue Melodies"

I don't know how to write you a song
That says, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong
I can't find the words that don't make it cheap
It's right on the verge and just out of reach
It must be a sad song with a blue melody
and I'll bet you it's lonesome, as lonesome as can be

Diamonds on the windshield, as heaven starts to cry,
In his rear-view mirror, his angle waves goodbye,
She knows he's got to go, she knows he's one of them,

[Chorus]
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind,
That Detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again,
Sailin' for that settin' sun, freedoms your best friend,

Baby all I got is this beat up leather bag.
And everything I own don't fill up half.
But don't you worry 'bout the way I pack.
All I care about is getting back real soon.
A goodbye kiss is all I need from you.

[Chorus:]
I'm carrying your love with me.

It started way back in third grade
I used to sit beside Emmylou Hayes
A pink dress, a matching bow in her ponytail
She kissed me on the school bus but told me not to tell
Next day I chased her 'round the playground
'Cross the monkey bars to the merry-go-round
And Emmylou got caught passing me a note
Before the teacher took it I read what she wrote

Baby, just like you
It's something new
I just had to try
I didn't plan on it
But a sip and you'll want it
It's a beautiful high
The perfect recipe
Baby, you and me

It's dance time in Texas and were striking up the band
Let's go honky tonkin' honey take my hand

It's dance time in Texas where the wine and music flows
We'll do that Texas two step and that old cotton eyed Joe
I'll take you honky tonkin' in my old pick up truck
It's dance time in Texas and the music lifts you up
It's dance time in Texas and were striking up the band

Every night it's the same
I hear you callin' my name
You're lyin' next to me
I give into your charms
You disappear in my arms
I realize it's just a dream, but

Desperately, I long to feel your touch

I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the worst
And he said
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
He said daddies don't just love their children every now and then

Don't make me come over there and love you
I'll be beside you in a single Bound
Don't make me come over there and love you
Cause I will right now
I don't need any explanation
Why I crave all your honey talk
Don't make me come over there and love you
'Cause it's a short walk

Well, I'm out on a tear 'cause she's tearin' me apart
If I look rough on the outside, you ought to see my heart
And this look in my eyes shows beyond a doubt
But since my woman left, I'm down and out
Well, I'm down at the bar, out of my mind
Tighter than an eight-day clock with no way to unwind
Well, that jukebox cries the blues like it knows what I'm about
But since my woman left, I'm down and out

George Strait - Easy Come, Easy Go

Says she's had enough of me
I've had enough of her too
I might as well go on and set her free
she's already turned me loose
No fault no blame nobody done no wrong
that's just the way it sometimes goes

Yo se bien que estoy afuera
Pero el dia que yo me muera
Se que tendras que llorar.
(Llorar y llorar, llorar y llorar)
Diras que no me quisistes
Pero vas a estar muy triste
Y asi te me vas a quedar.

Love the sound of a jukebox playing,
So I sit here while she's staying home
Watching Dallas on T.V.
I love the taste of whiskey straight,
But the strongest thing she ever takes
Is a sip from a small glass of chablis.

Though birds of a different feather,

July moonlight shines
Your pretty little head on my shoulder
Pull over on the side of the road
Oh my God, you're something
Like nothing I've ever seen
If I'm asleep girl, let me dream

Baby fall into my kiss

I put in my forty and they take out way too much
The same old story, same old brown bag, homemade lunch
Might not be the big dream but I guess I can't complain
It pays the rent but that's about all that it pays
It's been too long
Hey, I'm goin', I'm goin'
I'm overdue so throw it on the card
Bartender, keep it open, I'm just getting started

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone
Everything that I've got, is just what I've got on
When that sun is high in that Texas sky
I'll be bucking at the county fair
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I'll be there

They took my saddle in Houston, broke my leg in Santa Fe
Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way

I've got some good news, can't wait to tell you.
I realised I missed you, since we've been apart.
I just needed time,
To make up my mind,
But I'm in love with you with all my heart.
I've got some good news.

I got some bad news, I don't know how to break to you.

I gotta get to you 'cause you've sure been gettin' to me
Gotta find a way to get to your heart to sweep you off your feet
I'll wrap you up in my love, cover you with kisses so sweet
I gotta get to you 'cause you've sure been gettin' to me
I'll win you over
Over and over again
I'm getting closer
Closer than I've ever been

When you hear twin fiddles and a steel guitar
You're listenin' to the sound of the American heart.
And opry music on a Saturday night
Brings a smile to your face
And a tear to your eye.

Sing a song about the Heartland,
The only place I feel at home.

There's never been a man
who could bring me down
I've walked away from the toughest of towns
But her last words tore me apart
Her good bye hit me in the heart
Her good bye hit me in the heart

Her good bye hit me in the heart

I'm not gonna lay around and whine and moan
'cause somebody done, done me wrong
Don't think for a minute that I'm gonna sit around
And sing some old sad song
I believe it's half full, not a half empty glass
Every day I wake up knowing it could be my last

[Chorus]

I hear the music big daddy's place
Smell that gumbo coming through that ole screen door
Fans a blowing, flys a buzzing, people jitter bugging on that hardwood floor
Worked my fingers down to the bone
make the money and spend it on

Hot grease and zydeco
Feed my belly feed my hungry soul it's friday night let the good times roll

I've traveled through lots of places
Seen lots of folks and lots of faces
Even settled down a time or two
I've worked the farms, I've been to town
Guess you could say I've been around
But I ain't never seen no one like you.

I can tell by your smile you don't believe a word I say

The night's as clear as a big desert sky
But it's hard to see the stars with these tears in my eyes
Yeah, it's hard not to cry
There's twenty-six reasons why
There's broken hearts that'll never be the same
Shattered lives still reeling from the pain
Of plans and dreams now gone
Oh, how do you move on?

"I Can Still Make Cheyenne"

Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind.

Our love is unconditional
We knew it from the start
I can see it in your eyes
You can feel it from my heart
From here on after
Lets stay the way we are right now
And share all the love and laughter
That a lifetime will allow

I don't want to talk it over anymore
We said it all last night
And time and time, again before
You don't know what you put me through
When you walk out the door
Now, I don't want to talk it over anymore

We'll last about a month again this time

There once was a time when I was dead inside
I cussed the Lord for the day I was born
And prayed to the Devil to die
Just when I thought the Devil had won
Someone opened up the door
The King of kings
Lord of lords
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor

She was leaning on a rail in a cotton dress
Summer tanned pretty, little perfect mess
With a story that could only be anybody's guess
And I was thinking that I probably didn't stand a chance
But I rolled up my sleeves, walked up and I said
Hey, I know I don't know you but I'd kinda like a shot
She said, I saw you comin over, I already thought it over
And ok, so now what

I gotta get to you cause you sure been gettin' to me
Gotta find a way to get to your heart to sweep you off your feet
I'll wrap you up in my love, cover you with kisses so sweet
I gotta get to you cause you sure been gettin' to me

I'll win you over, over and over again
I'm gettin closer, closer than I ever been

He was sitting there beside me throwing doubles down
When he ordered up his third one he looked around
Then he looked at me and said I do believe I'll have one more
He said I hate this bar and I hate to drink but on second thought tonight I think
I hate everything

Then he opened up his billfold and a threw a twenty down
And a faded photograph fell out and hit the ground

I'm driving in my car alone
You called me on the telephone
How many times will it take till I'm convinced
That you're using me, I'm just a used-to-be?
It's a lie, I know it's a lie
But I just can't go on dying like this

Can I see you tonight?

I just walked down the street to the coffee shop
had to take a break
I'd been by her side for eighteen hours straight
I saw a flower growing in the middle of the sidewalk
pushing up through the concrete
like it was planted right there for me to see
the flashin' lights, the honkin' horns
all seemed to fade away

I said goodbye to you this mornin'
With only these words to explain
I said I'd found someone I love better
But I still hear your voice call my name

I thought I heard you callin' my name
Funny, I still feel this way.
Your voice seem so close, but I knew

It all started back in 1981.
Our life together had just begun.
I didn't know what my future would hold,
But you gave me a chance,
So I set out on the road.

It wasn't easy going then.
There were times I almost threw that old towel in,

Let's turn the lights down soft and low
And watch the fire embers glow
Let's lock the world outside the door
This is the night we've been waiting for

The moon is shining through the window pane
I hear the echo of a passing train
Taking someone's lover far away

Well my baby's wearin' a permanent smile
A satisfied look I ain't seen for awhile
I ain't had no rings, fulfilled any dreams
But somethin's come over my baby it seems

I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealin' my honey
Lord I love that child, love to see her smile
But these circumstances ain't funny

Ain't love a strain
Ain't it a pain in your heart
Ain't worth the trouble anyhow
I'd like to give it up
I've had enough and I've done my part
But I'm in too deep to pull out now

Good things we've had are going bad

The years have been so good to you and I my friend
They brought us to the Autumn wind and left the tears behind
And who'd have dreamed that love could grow so endlessly
And you'd have meant so much to me, is it already time?

And I will always love you so
We'll hold each other close until it's time to go
And we believed we had forever on our side

"Lead On"

She said I don't recall seeing you around here
You must be new to this town
Said I'm just passing through
But girl from the looks of you
I could see me settling down.

Pardon me, you left your tears on the jukebox
And I'm afraid they got mixed up with mine
I don't mean to pry
It's just that I noticed you goin' out of your mind
It looks like were two of a kind

Let's fall to pieces together
Why should we both fall apart?

Everyday's a lifetime without you
Hard to get through,
Since you've gone
So I do the only thing I know how to
To get by
I'm living for the night

I've drawn all the curtains in this old house

"Lone Star Blues"

At a truck stop in San Angelo
I saw a billboard about this rodeo
This weekend out in El Paso
So I signed up to ride

I drew a bull called Original Sin

I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye.
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why.
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed.
And then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waited for the worst.

And he said, "Let me tell you a secret about a father's love,
A secret that my daddy said was just between us."
He said, "Daddies don't just love their children every now and then.

Girl, you had one of those days
Seems like they been goin' around
You're a long way from bein' where you want to be
When the world isn't goin' your way
Whatever bad luck is gettin' you down
Honey, I'll be right here for you with open arms
You can run to me
Baby, love's gonna make it, love's gonna make it alright (alright, alright)

Girl you've had one of those days
Seems like they've been goin' around
You're a long way from bein' where you wanna be

When the world isn't goin' your way
Whatever bad luck is gettin' you down
Honey, I'll be right here for you
With open arms, you can run to me

Ther'es a soft rain tappin' on your window
There's a cool breeze blowin' off the bay
And a warm flame dancin' with our shadows
To music playin' far away
I never meant to stay an hour
I thought that I was passing through
Another town along the highway
I never meant to fall for you

Here's one of those songs that, that I recorded a long, long time ago
Probably in the early eighties
And I'll tell ya how I got this song
I was, uh
I was playing at a little place down the road called Billy Bob's
What a place
Especially back in those days
And, um

It's Christmas time I see the lines of people everywhere
Tryin' to pick out the gifts that show how much they care
It makes me wish that I could see my friends on Christmas Day
And fill my list with lots of gifts, but I can only say
Here comes a Merry Christmas strait to you
I hope it cheers you up when you are down and feelin' blue
Right or wrong I'll sing my song and you will know just who
Sings a Merry Christmas strait to you

Well I woke up this mornin'
Looked outdoors
I can tell my milk cow
I can tell by the way she lows
If you see my milk cow
Please drive her on home
Cause I ain't had no milk and butter
Since that cows been gone

As the sun sets and you let go
And my dreams go that way too
And I watch the silhouettes flow out of clear view

We can do this thing right
Fix what went wrong
Really make this work
Turn around real slow

I burn with desire
each time my heart fans the fire
To that old flame
that burns inside of me
She cried when I left her
now I try to forget her
Oh how foolish I was
to ever want to leave

If you leave me, I won't miss you,
And I won't ever take you back.
Girl, your mem'ry won't ever haunt me
'Cause I don't love you, and now if you'll buy that.

[Chorus:]
I got some ocean front property in Arizona.
From my front porch you can see the sea.

Я проснулся сегодня утром,
Выглянул за дверь.
Шел дождь, холодный и серый.
Был мой единственный выходной день... Я собирался играть в гольф.
Такие планы я строил.
О, но ты не услышишь моих жалоб.

И, о, какой отличный день, чтобы выразить любовь к тебе.

Tricycles, Bicycles
Candy canes and candlelight
Tryin' to stay awake all night
To catch a glimpse of Santa's reindeer
Mama bakin', sister makin'
Angels in the fallin' snow
Now it seems so long ago
I wish they all were here

I go anywhere that ol' wind blows
Down a blacktop road, anytime
No strings attached, no ties to tie me down
So why hang around, when I can fly

[Chorus:]
I'm free, free to do as I please
Free to choose, free to be

"Poison"

My first sip made me gag
And I thought I was gonna blow beets
But I took another and pretty soon brother
Sour mash started tasting sweet
Made me feel brave and strong
Bulletproof, like I could do no wrong

If there s a plane or a bus leaving dallas
I hope you re on it
If there s a train moving fast down the tracks
I hope you caught it

Cause I swear out there ain t where you ought to be
So catch a ride, catch a cab
Don t you know I miss you bad

Christmas is always my favorite time of year
Sleighbell's ringin' jingle lingin'
Christmas time is near
Can't wait to build a snowman
And play outside all day
Nothing could be better
I gotta write a letter
Santa's on his way

You played me for a fool
And I played the part so well
You played it smart, you played it cool
Broke every promise, every rule
And I couldn't even tell

You looked me in the eyes
And said, I was the only one

She knows she's holdin' someone who don't love her
She knows she's where you could have been
She knows I turned to her because you turned me down
And she knows when you're on my mind again

Every night she opens up the door to Heaven
But when you're on my mind I can't go in
And you come runnin' through my mind and I let my memory chase you

He wondered how she'd take it when he said goodbye.
Thought she might do some cryin'... lose some sleep at night.
But he had no idea, when he hit the road,
That without him in her life, she'd let herself go.

Let herself go on a singles cruise,
To Vegas once, then to Honolulu.
Let herself go to New York City...

At first she's gonna come on strong
Like she'll love you all night long
Like it's going out of style
Then she'll leave you with a smile.

Your gonna give her all your heart
Then she'll tear your world apart
Your gonna cry a little while

I know that I surprised you comin' home
It's not my usual time of year
But I've got myself a problem
And I know that I might find the answer here

Remember when I was dad's pride and joy and your little man
Every time that I got hurt, you were there to give a hand
You would pick me up and you'd kiss my hurt away

Take me to Texas
Two hundred years ago
Where a pride rose from the ashes of San Jacinto
It still beats in every heart
Like a battle cry
Where I was born, where I was raised, so when I die
Take me to Texas, on the open range
The Rio Grande is in my veins

I'm going down to Austin, Texas
Ease on down to San Antone
Get that bar-b-que and chili
Eat my fill then come back home
I'm gonna take my baby with me
We gonna have a high ol' time
We gonna eat till we get silly
Sho' do make a beer taste fine

"The Best Day"

We loaded up my old station wagon
With a tent, coleman, and sleepin' bags
Some fishin' poles, a cooler of Cokes
Three days before we had to be back
When you're seven, you're in Seventh Heaven
When you're goin' campin' in the wild outdoors

Without a warning, you're outta control.
The ground shakes and the oceans roll-
This is the big one, there's no way to run.
On the Richter scale of romance
You hit twelve and you don't stand a chance.
This is the big one, I'm fallin' in love.

Now it's beat, beat, beat-

He looks up from second base dad’s up in the stands
He saw the hit, the run, the slide there ain’t no bigger fan
In the parking lot after the game he said
“Dad I thought you had a plane to catch”
He smiled and said “Yeah son I did”

Chours
Life’s not the breaths you take

Well, I was rulin' the roost, had all the chicks to myself
And suddenly it happened, the funny little feelin' I felt
Well, I tried to outrun it, but it finally caught up with me
Tell me how can I run from something that I can't see?
Oh, that little bitty teeny weeny thing they call the lovebug
Nobody's ever seen it, but it's got the whole world shook up
It all started with a little bitty kiss and a hug
It's a little bitty teeny weeny thing they call the lovebug

I'm not the hero, who will always save the day
Don't always wear the white hat, won't always know the way
I may not even be the dream, you wanted to come true
But, I'll always be the man in love with you
I'm not the key, that opens every door
Don't have the power, to give you all you want and more
But when you're needing something special, you can hold on to
I'll always be the man in love with you

There's a little place I know
Right down the road
They call a hideaway
They party night and day
Girl, I think that it's high time
That you and I cut loose, unwind
It's time to play
Oh, it's Friday

The band had just started when they walked in the door
He sat her at a table and strolled out on the floor
He grabbed the first sweet thang that gave him the eye
And left the door open for the steal of the night
Three dances later she was still in her chair
He was still on the dance floor like he didn't care
So I eased on over, there was no ring in sight
And I found myself facing the steal of the night.

It's gonna be a long one, another graveyard shift
As he says goodbye to his wife and kids
He spent his life just like his dad's
Driving away under the weight of the badge
He's seen it all in his fifteen years
Watching our backs, facing our fears
Lord knows it ain't no easy task
Keeping us safe under the weight of the badge

He was sitting on the front porch of a half-way house
Chainin' cigarettes and drinkin' coffee
I was walkin' by on my way home
stopped and said, hello, how are ya
He looked at me and said, I've seen better days
I looked at him and said, there's a better way

Three nails and a cross

"Today My World Slipped Away"

We made it final today.
I gave you all I had, you made your getaway.
All the love we once made turned to memories today.
I left the courtroom and went straight to the church.
I hit my knees and told God how much I hurt.
Nothin' left of my heart;

I still feel 25,
most of the time.
I still raise a little cain with the boys.
Honky tonks and pretty women.
Lord I'm still right there with them.
Singing above the crowd and the noise.

(Chorus)

True in this modern world when two lovers get together
Chances of ‘em ever makin’ it to forever
Couldn’t be better than two in a million hearts.
Girl this ain’t just another run of the mill emotion
What I’m feelin’ is the definition of devotion,
My love for you is true.

True, like the sun comin’ up each mornin’

When I get off of work on Friday after working like a dog all week
I go to meet the boys for a cold one at a little joint up the street
They got a jukebox in the corner full of old country tunes
Feed it five dollars worth of quarters is the first thing I always do

Chorus:
'Cause I need a little twang
A little hillbilly bending on some guitar strings

We really shouldn't be doing this and we both know why.
Just being close enough to think like this, enough to make you need to lie.
This kinda talk will lead us to somewhere,
We're gettin' way too close to going there
The farther off the better to resist, we really shouldn't be doing this.

Only an isolated incident, but the acquaintance left me stunned.
The first attraction was the hardest hit I thought I'd ever overcome.

It's six minutes until eleven
The phone rings, but it's never you
I won't walk the floor
I'll just watch it
Stood up, impatient and blue

What am I waiting for
She might never show

You're like the warm sunshine, I think of you all the time
I've fallen for you and that's a fact, what do you say to that
You're always in my dreams, I think you know what they mean
My heart knows this is real at last, what do you say to that

Life could never be the same without you
Love was never really love without you
Here beside you is really where it's at, what do you say to that

[Verse 1]
There's things you don't know till you know
Like when somebody's gone before they go
When it comes to love, you never really learn
Just when you think you've got it figured out
And you think you know what love's all about
That's just about the time you're gonna get burned
Oh, you tell yourself you've had enough

Been down the road, to work & back,
Been in what I thought was love a few times,
Every once in a while, I stop & ask,
Where have I been all my life?

These days broccoli don't taste so bad,
& neither does swallowing my pride,
& I'm agreeing more & more with my old man,

Where the sidewalk ends and the road begins
We said good bye on a cold dark night
I'm not afraid to go you bet I'm not
Where the sidewalk ends you left a lot

Some people leave and never come back
Some stay in touch, some loose track
Your mind kept sayin' come on let's go

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the one's I use to know
Where the tree top's glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your day's be merry and bright

You said she asked if you knew where she could get
Some old boxes
'Cause she was going to pack up everything she owned
Where the closest you-Haul place is

And what the cost was
This time tomorrow she'll be gone
She says she knows of a place to sell her ring

What kind of world would it be
For you without me
Would you think it a better world
Or would you be lonely
And if your love for me shall die
Would you even say good bye
Or would you just walk away
Into the dark of night

I never saw the end in sight
Fools are kind of blind
Thought everything was going alright
But I was running out of time
'Cause you had one foot out the door
I swear I didn't see
But if you're really going away
Here's some final words from me

At a table for two
With candlelight and wine
That diamond burnin' holes in his pockets
Thinkin' now's the perfect time
When he popped the question he could see
The teardrops fill her eyes
She said I knew this was comin', and I'm sorry
But I hope you realize

Baby, since you left me, there's somebody knew.
She thinks I'm perfect, I swear.
She likes my body, my class and my charm.
She says I've got a confident air.
She respects my ambition, thinks I'm talented too,
But she's in love with an image time is bound to see through.

[Chorus:]

George Strait - You Look So Good In Love
Album: Right Or Wrong

Oh how you sparkle, and oh how you shine.
That flush on your cheeks is more than the wine.
And he must do something that I didn't do.
Whatever he's doing, it looks good on you.

Hope is an anchor, and love is a ship
Time is the ocean and life is a trip
You don't know where you're going
Til you know where you're at
And if you can't read the stars
Well you better have a map
A compass and a conscience

As I hold you close tonight
Hear what I say
There's no doubt
It's love alright
'Cause I've never felt this way
An angel's what you are
And now I see
You're not just someone else
