Let Alone You

It was Sunday Afternoon

I was sunk in my recliner

Football game was one

Tampa Bay in Carolina

I wasn't paying much attention

Volume down, not watching it at all

This house is like an icebox

Had all the curtains drawn

Had it more like a hotel room

And less like a home

Been so quite around here lately

I wasn't thinking anyone would call

Let alone you, all the way from Dallas

Out of the blue, saying that you missed us

And time and distance made you see

You were lost without me

How did you know I'd finally hit the bottom

An all-time low was suddenly forgotten

The sound of your voice on the line

Made fate turn circles on a dime

Just when I thought I'd never find somebody new

Let alone you

Now here I am at the baggage claim

A nervous wreck waiting on your plane

Wringing my hands, checking my watch

Never dreamed forty-eight hours ago

I'd be standing here waiting on anyone

No not anyone

Let alone you, all the way from Dallas

Out of the blue, saying that you missed us

And time and distance made you see

You were lost without me

How did you know I'd finally hit the bottom

An all-time low was suddenly forgotten

The sound of your voice on the line

Made fate turn circles on a dime

Just when I thought I'd never find somebody new

Let alone you

Let alone you
