The Tender Comfort Of Your Heart
� 1994, Larry Mofle
This is one of my favorites...
She got back to the farm after a long, hot summer ride
Tied ole� Red up to the post then headed on inside
There standing in the doorway was a figure from her past
A face without a name from a love that didn�t last
�Well you�re a sight for sore eyes,� were the first words that he spoke
And as she glared at him she said, �Is this some kind of joke?�
�The last time that I saw you, you were leaving on a train�
�In no uncertain terms you let our love just pass away�
�I didn�t need you then and I sure as hell don�t need you now�
�You waltz right in expecting me to pick up with our vows�
And with a heavy sigh and a shudder from the strain
He said these words in hopes that he could try to explain
Chorus 1:
�I really couldn�t tell you why a man does what I do�
�Just some notion I was better off without you�
�I think that where you�re going has to do with where you�re from�
�And just because the book is closed don�t mean the story�s done�
�If I admit that I was wrong will you take me in your arms�
�And let me love inside the tender comfort of your heart�
With hands set on her hips she looked him up and down again
Still living with the mem�ry of not getting over him
�I guess this means you hope I will believe the words you say�
�And act like there was no time between now and yesterday�
�If what you say is coming out from deep within your heart�
�Then I hope you�ll understand why I can�t take another start�
Now let this be a lesson about a man who had it all
The grass appears more greener in the summer than the fall
Chorus 2:
�I really couldn�t tell you why a man does what you do�
�Just some notion you were better off without me, too�
�I know that where you�re going has to do with where you�re from�
�And I know because the book is closed won�t mean the story�s done�
�If you admit that you were wrong I won�t take you in my arms�
�And let you love inside the tender comfort of my heart�
�You�ll never love again inside the tender comfort of my heart�
