Yeah, I had to come back with somethin' that's on my heart, y'all I mean, you like to look at them girls in them short shorts All that good stuff But don't let it fool you, man Them short shorts don't compare To that woman you got at home, man And you go miss her when she gone Let me tell you like this You'll never miss a good thing till it's gone I never meant to hurt you, girl, I was wrong I always knew that one day you would move on with your life But I guess in the back of my mind I thought you would come home one more time I heard it through the grapevine, you gotta make They say he treats you good and he makes you laugh I'm happy for you, baby, and I ain't mad at you And may all your kids do good in school And may all the dreams you have come true I'll always love you, girl I'll always care And girl, you gotta know that I'll always love you, girl And no matter where you are Know that my love is never far A happy woman's worth her weight in gold Loneliness is good for the soul Expensive places, lovely faces come and go But you only find your soulmate once And if you miss your chance, you'll never find it again I can't complain, I did this to myself You needed me and I wasn't there to help It breaks my heart to see you loving someone else I would give anything I own If I could just have my baby home I'll always love you, girl I'll always care And girl, you gotta know that I'll always love you, girl And no matter where you are Know that my love is never far I'll always love you, girl I'll always care And girl, you gotta know that I'll always love you, girl And no matter where you are Know that my love is never far I'll always love you I'll always care And girl, you gotta know that I'll always love you, girl And no matter where you are Know that my love is never far I'll always love you
