by the time i get to phoenix - thelma houston lyrics

Loading...

you know, sometimes when you’re in love
two people can grow apart
you find yourself waking up and wondering:
when did all that sweetness go?
when did we stop noticing each other
and smiling, and appreciating each other
at the end of every single day?

and even though your heart is filled with just as much love for them, as the day you met
you find yourself feeling loneliness, whenever you’re together
mmm, heh
and you begin to wonder: why am i still holding on?
and maybe, you’ve even asked your lover
once, twice, three times even:
“hey baby, what’s wrong?”
and he just looked back at you and said
“oh, nothing wrong baby, i still love you”

but inside, you know something’s changed
and though you don’t want to admit it
somewhere deep inside you know, it’s time to move on
it’s time to breathe again, time to get back to yourself
and start your life brand new
and you know it’s gonna hurt a while
but you know, you’ve already been sad far too long
and it’s, it’s time to spread those wings and fly

and then comes the day – a beautiful, sunny morning
when you wake up, and something inside you says:
“this is the day.” yeah…
oh, whoo…

by the time i get to phoenix he’ll be risin’
he’ll find the note i left hangin’ on the door
and he’ll laugh when he reads the part that says i’m leavin’
’cause i’ve left that man so many times before

and by the time i make albuquerque he’ll be workin’
he’ll probably stop at lunch, just to give me a call
he’s gonna hear that phone, keep right on ringin’, ringin’ and ringin’
off the wall, that’s all

by the time i make oklahoma he’ll be sleepin’
he’s gonna turn softly, and i know, he’ll call my name out low
and he’s gonna cry, just to think, i’d really really really leave him
oh, though time and time after time, i’ve tried to tell him so
but he just didn’t know i would really go

but i had to leave you, darlin’
i had to leave it
it hurt my very soul
bye-bye, baby
i had to leave you, darlin’
it hurt so bad
