I Let Him Get Away with It

Every now and then I’d mention her to him
He’d get that look in his eyes
But it was only there a minute
So I let him get away with it
There was one day he called me by her name
It tore me all up inside
He never even knew he did it
So I let him get away with it
I let it go, I closed my eyes
I told myself just this one time
Yes, I refused to see the signs
Oh, but love is blind
I said «I love you,"he would say «me too»
But when I looked in his eyes
I wasn’t really sure he meant it
So I let him get away with it
He took a part of me the day I watched him leave
So I gave him all of my heart
Lord how I hate to admit it
I let him get away with it
I let it go, I closed my eyes
I told myself just this one time
Yes, I refused to see the signs
Oh, but love is blind
Every now and then I’d mention her to him
He’d get that look in his eyes
But it was only there a minute
So I let him get away with it
Oh, I let him get away with it
I let him get away with it
