Lyrics Ricky Skaggs

Ricky Skaggs

You've Got A Lover

The clubs are all closed and there's no where to go

And the sun won't show for hours

The streets have all emptied and lovers lay sleeping

And dreaming of each other

You've got a lover but it's not me

He can't love you like I can

There will be others yes I understand

Will they love me like you can

There's acres and acres of heartbroken lovers

I know we're not the first ones

But sometimes it seems that it's just like a dream

That you try hard to remember

You've got a lover but it's not me

He can't love you like I can

There will be others yes I understand

Will they love me like you can

The clubs are all closing you know

I was hoping that time would hold me over

I pull up my collar, walk into the night

I'll be looking for an answer

You've got a lover but it's not me

He can't love you like I can

There will be others yes I understand

Will they love me like you can
