It's always nice to find a little love along the way
I'm grateful for your time, you know I'd really like to stay
But I'm a singer not a lover and I've got some ground to cover
Oklahoma is expecting me today

And maybe I won't be a star or make myself a name
And maybe I won't know another love that's quite the same
But we better just forget it, I know some day you'll regret it
I don't want you to be sorry that I came

But everytime I sing a love song, I'll be singin' it to you
Everytime I sing a love song, I'll know all the words are true
Though a thousand ears will hear me in some smokey crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me, I will only see your face

Someday I will say goodbye, it's a song I've sung before
So let me say it now before I hurt you anymore
I can't take you where I'm goin', I can't keep my dream from growin'
It's something that I've lived my whole life for

But everytime I sing a love song, I'll be singin' it to you
Everytime I sing a love song, I'll know all the words are true
Though a thousand ears will hear me in some smokey crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me, I will only see your face

And everytime I sing a love song, I'll be singin' it to you
Everytime I sing a love song, I'll know all the words are true
Though a thousand ears will hear me in some smokey crowded place
Though a thousand eyes will see me, I will only see your face
