Where in a barroom
When last night
What was I doin'
I was holdin' someone tight
Who oh just someone
Who didn't mean a thing
How well I just slipped off my wedding ring
Why I don't know
I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't wanna see you go
Girl you know me well enough
To know that I don't lie
And I can answer every question but why
Where at her place
When around closing time
What were we drinking
Tequila, salt and lime
Who but a fool like me
Could hurt someone like you
How can you forgive me
For all I've put you through
Why I don't know
I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't wanna see you go
Girl you know me well enough
To know that I don't lie
And I can answer every question but why
Yeah I can answer every question but why
