You're Gonna Lose Her Like That

(album: Devoted To Your Memory - 1983)

She fixed up her hair
Bought her a new dress this morning
She looks like the lady she is
And feels like a woman
She was ready to spend the night on the town
Like you promised
But you let her down
Now she's in her gown at home again

You're gonna lose her like that
Leaving a woman with feelings
Spending her nights looking back
You're gonna lose her like that

It's a daily affair to stop for a drink after working
A little time on your own before you go home
You deserve it
But the new girl you met there last week
She keeps returning
And your woman can tell there's a wildfire going

You're gonna lose her like that
Buddy you're playing with danger
And cheating's a guaranteed danger
You're gonna lose her like that

You're gonna lose her like that
You've got a woman with feelings
It's a cold matter of fact
You're gonna lose her like that
