Room To Room

Terry Allen · Other Songs - Terry Allen

Ah, standin' in the kitchen, lookin' out the window

Wonderin' when she'll come home

You know she's out drinking, you been thinkin'

She gets back, you'll be gone



When she finally comes in

You'll still be there to hear her swear

"Baby, I'm sorry, it'll never ever happen again"



Walkin' the floors, room to room



Yeah, you're standin' in the livin' room

Lookin' out the window, clutchin' a hold of the drapes

Your hands are kinda shakin', feel somethin' breakin'

You must not have what it takes



Oh, when she finally comes in

You'll still be there to hear her swear

"Baby, I'm sorry, it'll never ever happen again"



Walkin' the floors, room to room, room to room



Yeah, you're standin' in the bedroom

Lookin' out the window, peekin' through the blinds

Your stomach's in a knot, takes everything you got

To keep from losin' your mind



Oh, when she finally comes in, guess what?

You'll still be there to hear her swear

"Baby, I'm sorry, it'll never ever happen again"



You hear a car, run to the glass

Press your nose on the pane, watch it pass

And the years go by room to room, room to room



Now, she's in the kitchen, lookin' out the window

You're the one that's gone

You're out drunk as a skunk, she says she'll leave

But she won't 'cause now it's just her turn



And when you finally come in

Well, it's only fair when you hear yourself swear

"Baby, I'm sorry, it'll never ever happen again

Oh baby, I'm sorry, it'll never ever happen again"



Walkin' the floors, room to room, room to room

Room to room, room to room
