The Trouble With Never

Tim McGraw · Other Songs - Tim McGraw

If I never think about her, I'll never miss her at all

Never wonder what she's doin', never give her a call

Never see her again and I'll be free as a bird

But the trouble with never is never, never works



If I never bring her flowers, I'll never see her smile

If I never try to kiss her, she'll never drive me wild

And I'll never feel the need to say those three little words

But the trouble with never is never, never works



I know how to stay carefree

Let no one get a hold on me

But I can't keep my hands off her

There's something different 'bout this girl



If I never let me love her, I'll never settle down

And I'll never put roots in this God forsaken town

And I'll never say I do or step foot in a church

But the trouble with never is never, never works



I know how to stay carefree

Let no one put a hold on me

But I can't keep my hands off her

There's something different 'bout this girl



If I never think about her, I'll never miss her at all

Never wonder what she's doin', never give her a call

Never see her again and I'll be free as a bird

Oh, but the trouble with never is never, never works



Yeah, the trouble with never is never, never works

At least not with her
