The Woman Before Me - Lyrics by Trisha Yearwood


Lyrics

(written by Jude Johnstone)

I can see you turn away
When I ask what for
You say it isn't anything
But I'm not sure

Somethin' underneath the skin
Won't let you be
And you try to keep it in
But I can see

The woman before me
Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I never put you through
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you

Sometimes in an argument
It will show
When you go a little farther than
You meant to go

I know you don't mean the things
That you say
I just wanna ease the pain
That's in your way

The woman before me
Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I never put you through
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you

If there are sorrows that bring back a tear
Don't let them keep us apart
You ought to know you've got nothing to fear
Here in my heart

'Cause you and I will never be
Like the past
Whatever kind of memories
That you have

Nothin's gonna hurt you now
Can't you see
I already made a vow
That I can keep

But the woman before me
Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I never put you through
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you
Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The woman before me and you
