There she lies still sleeping dreaming the whole world is in her hands
What she thought was love last night was just the wine and the weakness in a man
But now the passion's gone and all that's left is cold gray facts and cold gray morning light
As I promptly close the door I wonder what did I promise her last night

I guess I should have wakened her and told her that I must be moving on
But I told myself the truth might hurt her worse than waking up to find me gone
But my conscience knows the truth and it's so hard to convince myself I'm right
And as I slowly drive away I wonder what did I promise her last night

I guess by now she's waking up and packing up her things and heading home
With memories of a temporary love she wishes never came along
How many one-night stands must she go through before she finds a love that's right?
And as I'm driving down the road I wonder what did I promise her last night

Mike - You'll hear it on M-M-Mel's Live Album. Great steel too.

Mike, Do you have the melody to Mels song?? If you need it I can record it off the record onto casette and send it to you.
