Lyrics
When The Time Is Right
Sitting alone in my window sill
Nothing moving this night so still
Staring at the long dirt road
Keeping my cries in control.
Waiting for my man to come
Into the arms where he belongs
Dreaming of his tender touch
Loving him far too much.
Chorus
He said he?d see me tonight
He just knew the time was right
To tell his wife (pause)
About our new life? (pause)
Together?
Candles burned out long ago
Nothing left but a warm glow
Dinner?s cold on the lace tablecloth
Champagne?s unopened that I bought.
I believed he loved me so
Praying his wife would let him go(pause)
So he could be free(pause)
To come to me. (pause)
Chorus
He said he?d see me tonight
He just knew the time was right
To tell his wife(pause)
About our new life?(pause)
Together?
Tears spill down from my eyes
Like the stars falling from the sky
My heart breaks as I realize
All he told me was a pack of lies.
Morning sun brings a new day
Knowing I?ll find a way
To get over him(pause)
Without a whim(pause)
And start to believe?
There?s a man I?ll meet one night
There?s a man who will treat me right
There?s a man who has no wife
He?ll come to me when the time is right.
There?s a man who doesn?t lie
There?s a man who will really try
There?s a man who wants a wife
There?s a man who will bring our lives
Together?Forever?
When the time is right?
When the time is right?
