That Was a Close One

歌詞

I loved her because she was there And I knew along that it wasn't fair but I didn't care Then I got the hell out of there That was a close one I kept my freedom intact got rid of the hassle and rid of the flack yeah I cut me some slack And I never thought I'd want it back And that was a close one That was a close one And if I hadn't of run she might have got away with my heart So I played it smart That was a close one But I kept my cool never let down my guard That was a close one The winter of '79 was so cold and lonely I found a good woman she took me inside And I swear to God I really tried And that was a close one Will there ever be a love of my life when I'm out of my pride And out of my mind in the nick of time And when the feeling in here is fine That's the close ones That was a close one And if I hadn't of run she might have got away with my heart My precious heart That was a close one But I kept my cool and never let down my guard That was a close one (whew) That was a close one I love her because she was there That was a close one That was a close one Winter of '79 That was a close one That was a close one She might have got away with my heart That was a close one
