Lyrics George Jones

George Jones

On The Other Hand

On one hand I count the reasons I could stay with you

And hold you close to me, all night long

So many lover's games I'd love to play with you

On that hand there's no reason why it's wrong.

But on the other hand, there's a golden band

To remind me of someone who would not understand

On one hand I could stay and be your lovin' man

But the reason I must go is on the other hand.

In your arms I feel the passion that I thought had died

When I looked into your eyes I found myself

When I first kissed your lips I felt so alive

I've got to hand it to you girl, you're something else.

But on the other hand, there's a golden band

To remind me of someone who would not understand

On one hand I could stay and be your lovin' man

Oh, but the reason I must go is on the other hand.

Yes, the reason I must go is on the other hand.
