(Carlene Carter)
That boy took the heart of me
Then he threw it back at me
Thought I had a grip on it
That boy got away with it
I don't mind the lack of sleep
I find that it helps me think
Everynight I lie awake
And listen to my poor heart break
That boy took the breath right out of me
Eyes like the lights on a Christmas tree
Just one look
I was hooked
Love so innocent too bad we never finished it
That boy got the best of me
Better than I thought I'd be
Oh oh he drove me to tears
That boy stripped all my gears
Hard case thought I'd never sell
I gave and he took it well
Lovesick worked overtime
Heartaches beat double time
That boy took the breath right out of me
Eyes like the lights on a Christmas tree
Just one look
I was hooked
Love so innocent too bad we'll never finished it
