Lay your best dress on the ground
There's nothing going on in town
I won't let the sorrow put us down
Just leave those shoes right by the door
Cause many times my heart's been broken
I still find pieces on the floor
And this time I won't let love get in the way
This time I won't let love get in the way!
It's hard enough for me to get you to stay
So this time I won't let love get in the way!
The radio, is moaning low
The room is lit up blue by Tv shows
Let's open up that bottle of old champagne
Well I know that you don't like it
But I'll drink it all the same
And this time I won't let love get in the way
This time I won't let love get in the way!
It's hard enough for me to let you to stay
So this time I won't let love get in the way!
The night is turning softly into dawn
The wind is blowing pages of a book out on the lawn
The leaves upon those trees are holding on
Well like those who have fallen
Cause many times my heart is calling out your name for far too long
Every time I just let love get in the way, oh
Every time I just let love get in the way
Keep on moving way too fast
My mind keeps thinking about the past
Next time won't let love get in the way!
Next time won't let love get in the way!
Next time won't let love get in the way!
