Every time that I saw you With those bloodshot eyes so blue I swore I could love you And that you would love me too But you never ever noticed You didn't seem to care So, I gave you my Zippo And a heart that you could wear Now the years have gone by And some friends have disappeared I found you in a bar last night And I wiped away your tears You asked me what took you so long Where've you been all these years? Then you showed me my old lighter Took out the heart that you still wear Strange how things happen I would've put money on this turning out another way Now there's a ring on your finger And I'm back home to stay There's a house down on Main Street It's got a dog in the yard A leather jacket on the bedpost Red roses in a vase It's strange how things happen I would've put money on it turning out another way Now there's a ring on your finger And I'm back home to stay There's a ring on your finger And I'm back home to stay
