A LOT LIKE YOU

SIX DAYS ON THE ROAD, FOUR OF THEM IT SNOWED, I GOT HOME A LITTLE SOONER THAN I PLANNED.
THERE'S THIS HONKY-TONK CAFÉ, HOME IS JUST A MILE AWAY, THOUGHT I'D HAVE A BEER AND LISTEN TO THE BAND

I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT THIS COUPLE CAUGHT MY EYE, IN THE CORNER OF THE DANCE FLOOR ALL ALONE.
HE WAS AN OLD FRIEND THAT I KNEW, SHE WAS REAL FAMILIAR TOO, SHE LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE THAT I'D THOUGHT I'D KNOWN.

CHORUS: THE WAY SHE WORE HER HAIR, IN A DRESS I'VE SEEN YOU WEAR, AND THE MOVEMENTS OF HER BODY THAT I KNEW.
I WATCHED THEM IN THE NIGHT, AS THEY HELD EACH OTHER TIGHT, MY GOD SHE LOOKED AN AWFUL LOT LIKE YOU.

I KNEW IT COULD NOT BE, YOU'RE TOO MUCH IN LOVE WITH ME, AND I TRIED TO PUT THOSE FEELIN'S FROM MY MIND.
I TOLD MYSELF SOME LIES, TOOK A LESSON FROM THE WISE, "DON'T LOOK FOR THINGS THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO FIND"

I DROVE AROUND ALL NIGHT, CAME BACK HOME IN MORNIN'S LIGHT, CAUSE I KNEW I'D FIND YOU THERE FAST ASLEEP.
YOUR BREATHIN'S ALL I HEARD, AND I NEVER SAID A WORD, IT'S JUST A LITTLE SECRET THAT I'LL KEEP.

REPEAT CHORUS:
