Whirlwind

(album: Lonely River - 2009)

You act like you don't even know who I am
When you're all made up with your pretty little friends downtown
You got your hair put up with your high heel stilettos on
You know that every guy in this bar would love to take you home

I knew one day I'd see you again
And it would be hard I just didn't know when
You're here tonight, I guess you're doing alright
But I can't hide what I'm feeling inside

I get hypnotized when your pretty brown eyes catch mine
After two long years of thought that I was doing fine
And you moved on but I held on to what we had back then
And I wanted it again
And now I'm stuck in this whirlwind

Some folks say that I was the one to blame
When you left me all alone in a puddle of shame
I went downtown came home looking for a fight
And my whole life fell apart in the blink of an eye

You gave me a chance but I blew it again
I wish you could feel all this pain that I'm in
Ooh and I did you wrong but those feelings are gone
I want you to know that I'm still hanging on

I get hypnotized when your pretty brown eyes catch mine
After two long years of thought that I was doing fine
And you moved on but I held on to what we had back then
And I wanted it again
And now I'm stuck in this whirlwind

I did everything that I could to forget you
But no matter how hard I tried, I get sucked back in

And I get hypnotized when your pretty brown eyes catch mine
After two long years of thought that I was doing fine
And you moved on but I held on to what we had back then
And I wanted it again
And now I'm stuck in this whirlwind
Around and 'round again
