Beverly

Saw that man's eyes in the back of the room

A sentimental creature with a lotto lose

I called him outside where the air is cool

A stone's throw away from the bride and groom

I can tell inside it's a fight

But he's tryin real hard to be alright

I will tell you my story if you want he said

As he pulls from his jacket his last cigarette

I thought that I saw her

But she was out making all these other plans

I know that I love her

In these ways that you could never understand

How can I recover?

When I see her out with another man?

Ten years on and no sign of repair

I've nothing left now but a lock of her hair

I couldn't back down and I know that's not right

But I sit here alone almost every night

I didn't give up turn off the light

I'm starting to feel I've lost the fire

I thought that I saw her

But she was out making all these other plans

I know that I love her

In these ways that you could never understand

How can I recover?

When I see her out with another man?
