Lyrics
Close the door your heart is breaking
Turn away when your man leaves
Close your eyes his lover's waiting
Close the door so you don't see
Sometimes you know but you're uncertain
If you could bear what the truth would cost
Sometimes you cry "Oh God please help me"
You pray for answers you don't want
The road ahead lies straight and narrow
The road behind crooked an dark
You dream of passion and devotion
You want the whole man not just part
He ask for time he begs forgiveness
He holds your face through tears he pleads
You walk away he has the answer
A woman's pride will make you bleed
Only time can heal her sorrow
Only time can heal her grief
All the lies have left you hollow
Now the truth has set you free
Close the door the heartbreaks over
Turn away when your man leaves
Close your eyes a new life's waiting
You'll love a man you can believe
