I'm goin' to Kansas City Kansas City here I come. I'm goin' to Kansas City Kansas City here I come. They got some crazy little women and I'm a gonna get me one.
Just between the two of us let's live up this fantasy. For we no longer care enough to even disagree. People think it's wonderful our love can be so true.
When I think I've got you off my mind me and my new baby's doing fine. Then she says that steal a kiss or two well just about that time I think of you.
She would meet me in the morning on my way down to the river. Waitin' patient by the chinaberry tree. With her feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee.
If I don't act myself when I'm around you and I bring up things you used to say. Well I haven't learned to forget like you do but it's only love it will go away.
People talkin' bout my baby steppin' out got me all tore up with jealousy and doubt. Seems the best thing I can do is set you free oh it worries me yes it worries me.
I just read the saddest letter and before I cry I'd better. Let you know that I won't stand in your way. I'm your old love he's your new love but if you're sure it's true love.
(It keeps right on a hurtin' since you've gone). I cry myself to sleep each night wishing I could hold you tight. Life seems so empty since you went away.
If the whole world stopped lovin' the way you stopped lovin' me. Have you ever stopped to wonder what kind of place this would be. If the whole world stopped lovin' the way you stopped lovin' me.
Talk about good times hmm I've had some talk about mem'ries hmm we've made some. Think about him alone with you think about times I've been there too.
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill he sounds too blue to fly. The midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry. I've ever seen a night so long when time goes crawling by.
A stepping stone that's all I am to you just to go between while you find someone new. How could I love another when it's through I'm so helpless every time I'm holding you.
Sometimes I want to throw my arms around you. And I tremble at the thought of giving in. Because I know how much it cost to love you and I'm so afraid of losing you again.
I'm gonna get you off my mind it may take longer than I've thought it would. But I'm gonna get you off my mind. Too many long night with nothing to do too many firelights all shining on you.
I'm a fool, such a fool, a crazy fool, for lovin' you.. I'm a fool, such a fool, a crazy fool, for bein' true.. . The day we met, I told my heart, better let her be..
Everybody knows you came with him but another girl called this time. Now you're sittin' there all alone watchin' them that's fine. And I know you're wonderin' what you'll do if he doesn't come back to you.
I'll take my chances with you now and forever with you. There may be times you hurt me as only you can do. And I'll take my chances with you. I'll do my dreaming with you dreaming together with you.
Sweetheart I'll make amends. I'll make amends for cheating you I'll make it up for being so untrue. For the times I caused you pain for the times I brought you shame.
You told me once just how my kisses thrilled you. Since that time there'd been many lips you've known. Now there you go again in love with someone new.
I'm alone while you're somewhere with some friend of yours. I'd find you but you'd let me down I know. It hurts to love so much and not be loved at all.
