Smoke Rings In The Dark

(shawn camp/wynn varble/brice long)

Ooh ooh ooh ooh sorry, ooh ooh ooh ooh sorry

Well i came home from work in the middle of the day
Two hours early, but a little too late
She was coming down the stairs, looking mighty grand
With a big brown suitcase in her hand

I said, "what's goin' on, baby, what's the deal"
She said, "i just don't feel like i used to feel"
With the devil's own smile right out of the blue
She said, "i done went and found myself somebody new"
She said,

Sorry it didn't work out
Sorry, guess i'll see you around
She ruined my life, left me broken hearted
And all she had to say was, "sorry"

Well, i laid awake cryin' for many a night
I just couldn't seem to get her off my mind
I went to her, got down on my knees
Said, "baby, won't ya please come back to me"
She said,

Sorry it didn't work out
Sorry, guess i'll see you around
She ruined my life, left me broken hearted
And all she had to say was, "sorry"

Well, time went by and my poor heart healed
I found me a woman who's love is real
Man she's a looker, the apple of my eye
And every head turns when she walks by

Well, we ran into my old flame the other day
It blew my mind what she had to say
She said, "hello, baby, well how have you been
I was hopin' maybe we could get together again"
And i said,

Sorry it didn't work out
Sorry, guess i'll see you around
You ruined my life and left me broken hearted
And all you had to say was, "sorry"

You said, "sorry"

I don't wanna hurt nobody
Don't wanna make nobody cry
I don't wanna do wrong, i don't wanna do wrong
I don't wanna tell no lies
I'm lovin' you, lovin' you against my will
Lovin' you, lovin' you against my will

I don't wanna hear the phone ring
Don't wanna hear your voice on the line
I don't wanna come to you, i don't wanna come to you
I don't wanna give in this time
Girl, i'm lovin' you, lovin' you against my will

Your love is like a deep dark river
Pullin' me out to sea
The harder i try to resist you
The weaker i seem to be

I don't wanna turn down your side street
I don't wanna pull in your drive
Don't wanna see you standin' there, don't wanna see you standin' there
Don't wanna see that look in your eyes
Girl, i'm lovin' you, lovin' you against my will

Your love is like a deep dark river
Pullin' me out to sea
The harder i try to resist you
The weaker i seem to be

I don't wanna feel your heartbeat
I don't wanna taste your kiss
I don't wanna call your name, i don't wanna call your name
I don't wanna want you like this
Girl, i'm lovin' you, lovin' you against my will
Lovin' you, lovin' you against my will

Greenfields backed by blue skies
'bout as blue as your two true blue eyes
And i wonder do you feel the way i feel
When you see greenfields

Sometimes, oh, i wish you were still mine
And i'd go back in time and i'll always find
You in greenfields and you're layin' by my side
And love was real and i could taste it
On these lips of mine in

Greenfields backed by blue skies
'bout as blue as your two true blue eyes
And i wonder do you feel the way i feel
When you see greenfields

When i see cotton candy clouds up in heaven
I close my eyes and then we drift away
And i'm loving you and holding on forever
There in your arms where i used to lay in

Greenfields backed by blue skies
'bout as blue as your two true blue eyes
And i wonder do you feel the way i feel
In greenfields

I was headed north on highway five
On a star-lit sunday night
When a pick-up truck flew by me out of control
As i watched in my headlights
He swerved left then back right
He never hit the brakes
As he left the road

I found him lying in the grass
Among the steel and glass
With an empty whiskey bottle by his side
And through the blood and tears
He whispered in my ear
A few last words just before he died

Don't tell mama i was drinkin'
Lord knows her soul would never rest
I can't leave this world with mama thinkin'
I met the lord with whiskey on my breath

I still think about that night
And how that young man died
And how others sometimes pay for our mistakes
The last thing on his mind
As he left this world behind
Was knowing someone else's heart would break

Don't tell mama i was drinkin'
Lord knows her soul would never rest
I can't leave this world with mama thinkin'
I met the lord with whiskey on my breath

Don't tell mama i was drinkin'

I am a full grown fool and i shoulda known better
But i tried and i tried and i could not forget her
I would go back to her time after time
Man i must have been out of my mind

All of that cryin' for nothing
All of that tryin' for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
I've got to keep believing
In somethin' baby
'stead of just tryin' for nothing
Cryin' for nothin' at all

Well we fought for love and we fought for trust
And the whole blessed time it was right there in front of us
We could not reach it and i don't know why
It took so long just to say goodbye

All of that cryin' for nothing
All of that tryin' for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
I've got to keep believing
In somethin' baby
'stead of just tryin' for nothing
Cryin' for nothin' at all

Well her friends all told her, mine told me
But we would not listen, could not see
Me and my pride, her and her dreams
We never ever stood a chance it seems

All of that cryin' for nothing
All of that tryin' for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
I've got to keep believing
In somethin' baby
'stead of just tryin' for nothing
Cryin' for nothin' at all

'stead of just tryin' for nothing
Cryin' for nothin' at all

There's a plane flyin' outta here tonight
Destination new orleans
Boss man says my big promotion's on the line
He says that's right where i need to be

Lately i've been on the road more than i've been home
All this leavin' her alone is killin' me
And holdin' her right now has got me thinkin' more and more
This is right where i need to be

Where when i hear her i can see her
I can smell her sweet perfume
I can feel her skin against me when i sleep
Where i won't miss her i can kiss her
Anytime that i want to
Yeah that's right where i need to be
Yeah that's right where i need to be

There's a plane flyin' outta here tonight
With an empty first class seat
'cause i've finally got all my priorities in line
And i'm right where i need to be

Where when i hear her i can see her
I can smell her sweet perfume
I can feel her skin against me when i sleep
Where i won't miss her i can kiss her
Anytime that i want to
Yeah that's right where i need to be
Yeah i'm right where i need to be
