Lyrics
This Ain't The Way It's Supposed To Be
by Geneva Murphy and Tommy Patterson
You swept into the room, I choked on my wine
Those blue denim jeans sure fit you fine
You're still wrapped around this heart of mine
I watched you leavin'-I stopped breathin'
CHORUS: This Ain't The Way It's Supposed To Be
Me lovin' you and you runnin' free
Kickin' myself for feelin' this way
I keep thinkin' that you'll change your mind someday
This Ain't The Way It's Supposed To Be
This Ain't The Way It's Supposed To Be
There's a pain in my heart-a cold spot in my bed
Memories of you churnin' in my head
Thinkin' about all the things I should've said
It's wrong I know, but I can't let you go
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE: I reach for you, there's emptiness
I need your touch, but there's no caress
REPEAT CHORUS:
