Sometimes She Forgets - Steve Earle

If you see her out tonight

And she tells you it’s just the lights

That bring her here and not her loneliness

That’s what she says but sometimes she forgets

If she tells you she don’t need a man

She’s had all the comfort she can stand

You’d best believe every word she say

But don’t give up 'cause sometimes she forgets

Sometimes she forgets

That not too long ago she swore

She wasn’t going to let her heart

Been broken anymore

So now she keeps it locked away

It grows colder every day

And it won’t warm to any man’s caress

That’s what she says but sometimes she forgets

If you see her out tonight

And she tells you it’s just the lights

That bring her here and not her loneliness

That’s what she says but sometimes she forgets

Hey now don’t give up 'cause sometimes she forgets
