just across the way

Waylon Jennings

Just across the way a house is dark I can hardly see
Just a cross the way lives a girl who's so in love with me
But I'm such a bitter soul who's mem'ries seemed to always get their way
So I live here with my memories she lives there with her love just across the way
Just across the way I can see her in the window watching me
With her face rest to the pain and her eyes look more tearstained every day
But I'm such a bitter soul who's mem'ries keep standing in her way
I'm so lonely with my memories she's lonely with her love just across the way

Just across the way might as well be in the heavens on a star
We're just close enough together to see just what far apart we are
But I'm such a bitter soul who's mem'ries keep standing in the way
I'm so lonely with my memories she's lonely with her love just across the way
Just acoss the way just across the way
