I Let Him Get Away With It

(W.L. Burnette/Brett Beavers) 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
