Lance Alworth - Looking Over My Shoulder Lyrics

Lance Alworth - Looking Over My Shoulder
Artist : Lance Alworth
Title : Looking Over My Shoulder
I



Are you lookin' - over my shoulder,

When I'm dancin' - with you,

Is there - a danger,

You'll find - someone new.



II



Is it the tall - dark stranger,

Who catches - your eyes,

He seems to be - watchin',

Every time - we dance by.



Chorus .....



Oh you looked at him - when he walked in the door,

I turned my head - so I wouldn't see more,

He smiled at you - and I knew then,

Something would happen - but I didn't know when.



III



Now the music's - playin' once more,

We dance as he - walks cross the floor,

He taps my shoulder - says pardon me friend,

May I have this dance - until the end.



IV



What could I say - what could I do,

It's lady's choice - I know it's true,

Lookin' over my shoulder - I see you with him,

Now you're dancin' - and dancin' again.



Chorus .....



Oh you looked at him - when he walked in the door,

I turned my head - so I wouldn't see more,

He smiled at you - and I knew then,

Something would happen - but I didn't know when.



Musical Break .....



V



Oh I guess it's the - outside that counts,

For now you've - found your next mount,

But when he tires of - your rock and roll,

It's out the door - he'll go.



Close .....



Then you'll know - what it means,

To fall apart - at the seams,

Lookin' over your shoulder - as your hurtin' begins,

Over and over again.



Tag .....



Over and over - and over again.
