Nobody In His Right Mind (Would Have Left Her) - George Strait
capo 2
I burn with desire each time my heart fans the fire
Of that old flame that burns inside of me
She cried when I left her, now I cry to forget her
*
Oh, how foolish I was to ever wanna leave
+
Cause nobody in his right mind would've left her
I had to be crazy to say goodbye
+
Nobody in his right mind would've left her
+
Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind
I still carry her picture, I wish her well with that new love
I know she's found by now
Each night finds me dreaming, each day I spend thinking
How much I wish she was still around
+
Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind...
