Every Night About This Time - Dave Alvin

Every night about this time

She’s waiting for a man

It could be me or it could be you

Who’ll touch her with their hands

Someone left her long ago

She never found out why

So she falls in love again

Every night about this time

Every night about this time

She’ll be holding someone tight

Faces don’t mean much

When she turns out the lights

Just tell her that you love her

Even though she knows you’re lying

Then she’ll lead you to her room

Every night about this time

Every night about this time

She could be yours

She could be mine

Just hold her when she cries

Every night about this time

Every night about this time

She’ll pretend the best she can

It could be me or it could be you

Who’ll remind her of a man

Don’t say nothing when you leave

No need for long good-byes

You’re not the one she’s missing

Every night about this time

Every night about this time

She could be yours

She could be mine

Just hold her when she cries

Every night about this time
