Lover
Well, the glow from the bars and a thousand stars
Light the cold Ohio night
And the turnpike's slick
The snow's as thick as thieves
Since your call came through
There ain't nothing new
But the radio and the headlights
And the news at the top of the hour
That no one really believes
Do they
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
Lover
You say you got your reasons
I need more
Lover
Give me back my heart
Give it back, girl
When the cold comes to stay
It takes your breath away
And it makes the hours crawl
And it feels to me
Like I've been driving forever
Then your words return
The whole place burns
And I just don't know where to begin
Girl, could you just make it anybody else
Anybody else but him
Could you
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
Lover
You say you got your reasons
I need more
Lover
Give me back my heart
In some way you're here tonight
With fine wine and candlelight
He's gonna turn your head around
Girl, what you want me to do?
If I leave this thing all up to you
I'm gonna lose the best thing that I've found
I can see what's going down
And so I talk to the night
I head for the light
Tryin' to hold it on the road
Thank God for the man who put the white lines on the highway
Baby, whatcha gonna do when the fire is through
And you find he's out looking for somebody new
'Cause you did everything that he wanted you to do
And now you're all alone and crying
Aren't you
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
Lover
You say you got your reasons
I need more
Lover
Give me back my heart
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Tell me, why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
Lover
You say you got your reasons
I need more
Lover
Got it, give me back my heart
Give it back, girl
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Tell me, why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
Lover
You say you got your reasons
I still need more
Lover
Light the cold Ohio night
And the turnpike's slick
The snow's as thick as thieves
Since your call came through
There ain't nothing new
But the radio and the headlights
And the news at the top of the hour
That no one really believes
Do they
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
Lover
You say you got your reasons
I need more
Lover
Give me back my heart
Give it back, girl
When the cold comes to stay
It takes your breath away
And it makes the hours crawl
And it feels to me
Like I've been driving forever
Then your words return

And I just don't know where to begin
Girl, could you just make it anybody else
Anybody else but him
Could you
Lover
What you want to go
Do that for
Lover
Why'd you want to tear it apart?
Ooh
