Lyrics
Walter
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know I wasn't always good to you,
And one time I had some trouble when it came to bein' true
But if you're gone for good,
Don't you think you could do better than Walter?
I'm sure that Walter is a stand-up guy,
He may never make you laugh,
But he'll never make you cry.
But can you really see yourself turnin' out just like Walter?
What is Walter gonna say when he finds out about the way
You used to run, wild and free, when you were still in love with me?
When he stumbles on photographs, the ones of us that you still have.
He sees you're not the kind of girl that fits into his perfect world.
So, before you meet him at the alter,
Remember you're gonna hafta say "I do" to Walter
I bet he never had his nose broke in a barroom fight
Or got cussed by a country judge because of one crazy night.
But can you really see yourself turnin' out the lights
And turnin' to Walter?
