They say that love's a very old word it dated back to the starting of time
You can read it in the pages of hist'ry where for the love of a woman man has cried
They say that Cesar wealth before the batlle
The one he loved had found somebody knew
And I guess that's why these tears of mine keep falling
Well like him I too am losing you
[ guitar - steel ]
They say that absence make the heart grow fonder
Short partings can bring tears to our eyes
Like the story of Sampson and Delilah for the love of a woman man has cried
That's why I'm not ashamed to admit it ashamed to say I've cried for you at night
For the pages of hist'ry repeal it where for the love of a woman man has cried
