Always Faithful

Copyright 2015 Robert J. Thompson

I’M LOOKIN’ UP
YOU’RE LOOKIN’ DOWN
ANOTHER MAN’S COME HOME
YEAH, HE’S BACK IN TOWN
HE LOOKS SO FAMILIAR
YET HE LOOKS SO STRANGE
I WONDER IF HE KNOWS
THAT SOMETHING’S CHANGED

WHEN HE SHIPPED OUT
THAT'S WHEN YOU MOVED IN
I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT
I'D EVER SEE HIM AGAIN
I WAS SO LONELY
I WAS SUCH A FOOL
I SHOULD’VE NEVER
STARTED LOVING YOU

ALWAYS FAITHFUL
FIRST TO FIGHT
I SHOULD’VE WALKED AWAY
WHEN WE MET THAT NIGHT
HIS HEART IS BROKEN
NOW MY HEART IS TOO
WHILE HE WAS OUT FIGHTIN’
I WAS HOME LOVIN’ YOU

SO I STOPPED BY
JUST TO SEE YOUR FACE
ONE LAST LOOK
BEFORE I LEAVE THIS PLACE
I DON’T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING
DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO
MY MIND’S IN CIRCLES
‘BOUT THE THOUGHT OF LOSIN’ YOU

WELL, IT WAS NICE TO SEE YOU
AND NOW IT’S TIME TO GO
HE’S ASKING QUESTIONS
GOD I THINK HE KNOWS
HE’S GETTING ANGRY
AND I AM SO AFRAID
OF WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN
‘CAUSE HE FEELS SO BETRAYED

ALWAYS FAITHFUL
FIRST TO FIGHT
I SHOULD’VE WALKED AWAY
WHEN WE MET THAT NIGHT
HIS HEART IS BROKEN
NOW MY HEART IS TOO
WHILE HE WAS OUT FIGHTIN’
I WAS HOME LOVIN’ YOU



INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

AS I PACK MY THINGS
I HEAR A KNOCK ON THE DOOR
BEFORE I CAN THINK
I AM FLAT ON THE FLOOR
WITH A GUN TO MY HEAD
I HEAR HIM SOFTLY SAY
YOU'LL BE A DEAD MAN
IF YOU DON'T STAY AWAY

NOW I SIT HERE AND WONDER
IF YOU THINK OF ME
I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY
LIKE YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE
I’M SORRY FOR WHAT HAPPENED
AND WHAT I PUT HIM THROUGH
I WISH I'D NEVER
LAID MY EYES ON YOU

ALWAYS FAITHFUL
FIRST TO FIGHT
I SHOULD’VE WALKED AWAY
WHEN WE MET THAT NIGHT
HIS HEART IS BROKEN
NOW MY HEART IS TOO
WHILE HE WAS OUT FIGHTIN’
I WAS HOME LOVIN’ YOU
WHILE HE WAS OUT FIGHTIN’
I WAS HOME LOVIN’ YOU
WHILE HE WAS OUT FIGHTIN’
I WAS HOME LOVIN’ YOU
