“Sometimes He Does”
He didn’t notice I got a new dress on
He didn’t walk up behind me just to kiss me in the kitchen
The moment he got home
He won’t tell me that I’m beautiful when I’m sitting on the bed tonight
In a T-shirt with no makeup on
He didn’t write a love letter to me on a little scrap of paper
He found in the front seat of his car
He didn’t bring in back yard flowers or call me darling
As we laughed at them sitting in a jar
Tonight he won’t talk about the TV lights dancing in my blue eyes
Just before he takes me in his arms
But I stay because sometimes he does
Sometimes he loves me more than I deserve to be loved
And sometimes he’s more than a heart like mine could ever dream of
He doesn’t know how to say the things that someone who loves you
Really should know how to say
He didn’t take me dancing outside under a rented moonlight
Just to see the smile on my face
Tonight he won’t hold his breath then tell me that he’s falling
Just before I realize, there’s no words any way
But I stay because sometimes he does
Sometimes he loves me more than I deserve to be loved
Sometimes he’s more than a heart like mine could ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever give up
Tonight he didn’t make me feel like I’m the only woman in the world
He didn’t say my name in a whisper so sweet
Tonight he didn’t make me forget all the trouble in my heart
Or teach me what the word Hallelujah means
But I stay because sometimes he really does
Yes, yes, yes I stay, I stay, I stay because
Sometimes he does
