Your Next Lover

She lives a few doors down

Says she wants you to take her out

Have some coffee somewhere

Just some coffee

You saw her around in the parking lot

And any plans you had you can break

So wash your face

And let yourself go

Everybody is a sinner

Everybody makes mistakes

And there ain?t nobody

Who needs nobody

Don?t forget to look her in the eye

Laugh and show your smile

There?s not much more to lonely

Than being this lonely

I stood and watched the stars fade

Right there from your eyes

So, baby, I think I know just

What your next lover will be like

You hate cigarettes so she won?t smoke

But she don?t mind this bar you?re in

She sits right up there on that stool

Puts her [Incomprehensible] book down and smiles at you

You think she?s about 5 foot 3

That makes her taller than me

But you?re not thinking about that now, no

It ain?t right to think about that now

I stood and watched all the stars fade

Right there from your eyes

So, baby, I think I know just

What your next lover will be like

And I hope she can fix you

And I hope she?s someone

Who would never let you down

I hope she reminds you nothing of me

And as crazy, as crazy as it sounds

I hope she?s beautiful

?Cause I stood and watched all the stars fade

Right there from your eyes

So, baby, I think I know just

What your next lover

What your next lover will be like

?Cause there ain?t nobody

Who needs nobody

And there ain?t nobody

Who needs nobody
