Lover Lyrics - Heartland - Michael Stanley

Well the glow from the bars and a 

thousand stars 

Light the cold Ohio night 

And the Turnpike's slick, the 

snow's as thick as thieves 

Since your call came through there 

ain't nothing new 

But the radio and the headlights 

And the news at the top of the hour 

That no one really believes, 

do they 

(CHORUS:) 

Lover...what you want to go and do 

that for 

Lover...why'd you want to tear it 

apart 

Lover...you say you got your 

reasons, but I need more 

Lover...give me back my heart 

Give it back, girl 

When the cold comes to stay it 

takes your breath away 

And it makes the hours crawl 

And it feels to me like I've been 

driving forever 

Then your words return, the whole 

place burns 

And I just don't know where to 

begin 

Girl could you just make it 

anybody else 

Anybody else but him, could you 

(CHORUS) 

BRIDGE: 

And somewhere ahead tonight 

With fine wine and candlelight 

He's gonna turn your head around 

Girl what you want me to do 

If I leave this thing all up to you 

I'm gonna lose the best thing I've 

found 

I can see what's going down 

So I talk to the night, I head for 

the light 

Try and hold it on the road 

Thank God for the man who put 

the white lines 

On the highway 

Baby what you gonna do when the 

fire is through 

And you find he's out looking for 

somebody new 

Cause you did everything that he 

wanted you to do 

And now you're all alone and 

crying, aren't you... 

(CHORUS)
