But they can't take your place
Cause they never gonna hold me tight
And tuck me in before I go to bed
Say now baby girl you're better off
That's what I'm telling myself (over and over)
Cause I know I don't want nobody else
[Chorus:]
Cause these lips ain't kissing you
But once again these tears always win
Cause these arms ain't holding you
But once again these tears always win
But they can't light the room they way you did
When you walked inside, oh baby
About everything they've witnessed
And it'll probably sound something like this
Say now baby girl you're better off
That's what I'm telling myself (over and over)
Cause I know I don't want nobody else
[Chorus:]
Cause these lips ain't kissing you
But once again these tears always win
Cause these arms ain't holding you
But once again these tears always win
Tell me when the hell this loneliness is gonna be over
When everything in this room reminds me of you
Everytime I think, I'm getting closer
Cause tears drown me out, once again I lose
But once again these tears always win
But once again these tears always win
But once again these tears always win
