She's nothing but a woman
Just another pretty face
You can find another girl
To take her place
No use a making a fool of yourself
You can find somebody else
But honey
It don't work that way
I'm just kidding myself when I say
I'll forget someday
Cause honey
Real love it don't work that way
It looks mighty good
This smile I wear
Acting like I just don't care
If anybody mentions yesterday
I just try to laugh it away
But honey
It don't work that way
And I'm just kidding myself when I say
That I'll forget someday
Cause honey
Real love it don't work that way
I can walk around putting on airs
Telling everybody that I don't care
But it's hard to hide
The pain inside
When a lonely heart is missing you
And the love that we once knew
Cause I've tried to take the memory
Of all the love you gave to me
And put it all out of my heart
So I can make a brand new start
But honey
It don't work that way
And I'm just kidding myself when I say
That I'll forget someday
Cause honey
Real love it don't work that way
