You never been to Hollywood,
Put your face on a big screen.
But you act, like you love me.
You never been on a Broadway Stage,
With your name up on the marque.
Yet you act, like you love me.
So take your tears,
That you always seem to cry at the right time.
And all these years throw 'em over the bridge when you cross that county line.
If I thought it would work,
Girl I'd hit my knees.
But I know you don't love me.
You lean in so close,
Put your lips where the outta be.
But you don't, you don't really kiss me.
You wake up in the morning,
Make your coffee and grab your keys,
Then out the door.
You don't even think to kiss me.
So take your tears,
That you always seem to cry at the right time.
And all these years throw 'em over the bridge when you cross that county line.
If I thought it would work,
Girl I'd hit my knees.
But I know you don't love me.
So take your tears,
That you always seem to cry at the right time.
And all these years throw 'em over the bridge when you cross that county line.
If I thought it would work,
Girl I'd hit my knees.
While you were packing up,
I woulda used words like please.
But I know you don't love me.
