[Verse 1] You tell her you'll be home by eight, come draggin' in at ten Next night you forget to call do the same old thing again And when you see her you don't tell her where you've been That's how you lose a woman
[Verse 2] You see her in that bright red dress she bought just for you You don't say how good she looks, but notice nothing new She's just someone you've gotten too used to That's how you lose a woman
[Chorus] And when she's gone You'll sit around and wonder what went wrong And when it finally sinks in you'd give anything Anything, to hold her again
[Verse 3] A little conversation is all she really needs But you don't really listen 'cause you're watching the TV She gives up and finds another book to read That's how you lose a woman
[Chorus] And when she's gone You'll sit around and wonder what went wrong And when it finally sinks in you'd give anything Anything, to hold her again
[Verse 4] She's out with the girls one night in that same red dress Someone sits beside her, showers her with compliments And when he asks her to dance she says 'Yes' That's how you lose a woman That's how you lose a woman
