Home Ain't where His Heart Is (Anymore)
|
He knew how to reach me deep inside
And he found a part of me I could not hide
And we'd walk and talk and touch tenderly
And then he'd lay me down and make love to me
We build a love so strong it could not break
There was not a road we were afraid to take
And we'd kiss all the way from Arkansas to Rome
'Cause in each other's arm we were home sweet home
But he don't feel the same
Since our lives became
Years of bills, babies, and chains
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
He may hang his hat behind our bedroom door
But he don't lay his head down to love me like before
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
If foundations made of stone can turn to dust
Then even the hardest hearts of steel can turn to rust
If he could only find that feeling once again
If we could only change the way the story ends
And He may still come home
But I live here alone
The love that built these walls is gone
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
He may hang his hat behind his bedroom door
But he don't lay his head down to love me like before
He don't lay his head down to love me like before
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
No, home ain't where his heart is
This is what a woman wants...
Any man of mine better be proud of me
Even when I'm ugly he still better love me
And I can be late for a date that's fine
But he better be on time
Any man of mine'll say it fits just right
When last year's dress is just a little too tight
And anything I do or say better be okay
When I have a bad hair day
And if I change my mind
A million times
I wanna hear him say it that
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that way
Chorus:
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine
Well any man of mine better disagree
When I say another woman's lookin' better than me
And when I cook him dinner and I burn it black
He better say, mmmm, I like it like that yeah
And if I change my mind
A million times
I wanna hear him say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah like it that way
Chorus:
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that way
Chorus:
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine
You gotta shimmy shake
Make the earth quake
Kick, turn, stomp, stomp, then you jump
Heel to toe, Do Si Do
'Til your boots wanna break
'Til your feet and your back ache
Keep it movin 'til you just can't take anymore
Come on everybody on the floor
A-one two, a-three four
Hup two, hup
If you wanna be a man of mine, that's right
This is what a woman wants...
Mind if I sit Down, Can I buy you are round,
Haven't seen your face before are you new in town,
It's the same old lie, Oh every time,
Are you here alone, Can I take you home?
Now every woman sees, With every pretty please,
There's a pair of lyin' eyes and a set of keys,
He says come be a star, in the back seat of my car,
Oh but baby slow down you're goin' way too far,
Let me make it clear to you my dear:
If you're not in it for love
If you're not willing to give it all you got
If you're not in it for life, If you're not in it for love
Let me make it clear to you my dear.
If you're not in it for love, I'm outta here.
Babe I could change your world, Make you a cover girl
Yeah you could be a beauty queen in a magazine,
Now tell me what's your sign,
Why always the same old line,
I'll be your 409... If you'll change your mind,
Let me make it clear to you my dear:
If you're not in it for love
If you're not willing to give it all you got
If you're not in it for life, If you're not in it for love
Let me make it clear to you my dear.
If you're not in it for love, I'm outta here.
If you're not in it for love baby
If you're not willing to give it all you got
If you're not in it for life, If you're not in it for love
If you're not in it for life, If you're not in it for love
I'm outta here.
