There's A Party Goin' On

(album: Listen To A Country Song - 1972)

Somewhere a party's going on someone's there that should go home
But he's the life of the party so his friends won't let him go, oh no
He's having a real good time, telling jokes and drinking wine
And if someone's a waiting for him you'd never know

But at home she's looking out the window
Thinking about the good times she remembers
Holding back the tears and wishing he was safe at home
Inside her two loving arms that sure do miss him
Two lips that long to kiss him
And once more whisper, baby, I love you

Back at the party he's all smiles and his mind is a million miles
From the woman that keeps on loving him more and more
One more dance a little more wine, he's not too worried about the time
'Cause he knows she'll be waiting there at the door

But at home she's looking out the window
Thinking about the good times she remembers
Holding back the tears and wishing he was safe at home

Outside she sees the car lights, she hears the door and knows he's all right
And though he's been a million places she never looks for lipstick traces
And in her heart she knows he's wrong but she's so glad to have him home
And once more she whispers as a tear falls down she whispers
Once more she whispers, I love you
