Why you weren't what I wanted to find
Never in one place for too long
But there's no lack of arms around me
But now I'm grown and all alone and wishing I was with you tonight
While the joker and me went on our way
But I still wonder if somewhere I went wrong
And I'd wish on every star in the southern sky
These days everything is all business
And now I'm grown and all alone and wishing I was with you tonight
Now I'm grown and all alone and wishing I was with you tonight
The king, he waited on my doorsteps
And maybe I was much too selfish but baby you're still on my mind
For that man and our life, if I did not think that, oh
I never laid all my cards out
You just wanted to play
'Cause I can guarantee, things are sweeter in Tennessee
'Cause I can guarantee, things are sweeter in Tennessee
And maybe I was much too selfish but baby you're still on my mind
But I sure had all the reasons
Maybe I was much too selfish but baby you're still on my mind
'Cause I can guarantee, things are sweeter in Tennessee, in Tennessee
