Moe Bandy - She Stays In The Name Of Love lyrics

rate me

(Max D. Barnes)

I've been everything that a man shouldn't be

I've done things a man won't do

And it's hard to believe what she sees in me

After all that I put her through.

But I guess that she knows when the bars finally close

She's the one that I'm thinkin' of

Well she could leave in the name of a heart full of pain

But she stays in the name of love.

She cries in the name of a feelin'

That same ole feelin' each time I'm gone

She knows when I say I'll be home right away

That it might take all night long.

She tries to pretend I won't hurt her again

When Lord knows she's hurt enough

She could leave in the name of a heart full of pain

But she stays in the name of love.

--- Instrumental ---

I go to the same ole places

The same ole faces are all I see

But I stay ev'ry night in the dim red light

While she waits all alone for me.

She could have any man in the palm of her hand

But I guess that she cares too much

Well, she could leave in the name of a heart full of pain

But she stays in the name of love.

She cries in the name of a feelin'

That same ole feelin' each time I'm gone

She knows when I say I'll be home right away

That it might take all night long.

She tries to pretend I won't hurt her again

When Lord knows she's hurt enough

She could leave in the name of a heart full of pain

But she stays in the name of love.

She could leave in the name of a heart full of pain

But she stays in the name of love...
