A gal in a Texas bar is whacked because her so-called true love left her. Now she's lookin for REAL love not just a lover.
Lyrics
I’m Lookin’ For Love (Not Lookin’ For a Lover)
Music and Lyrics by
Art Dellerson
I was all alone in San Antone that Saturday night
She was at a corner table in a dim and smoky light
I went over and I asked her if she’d like to share some wine
She said “ I’ll have a cold Corona and a twist of lime”
Well I brought the beers and saw the tears that dried upon her cheek
I told her I was new in town… been here about a week
I could feel her lonliness and see the sadness in her eyes
Then that Texas lady took me by surprise
When she told me..I’m lookin’for love..not lookin’ for a lover
Don’t need another broken heart or start a fly-by-night romance
She asked me..If I’m lookin’ for love..not just another lover
Then take it slow..We both know we’ll never get a second chance
We closed that dive at half-past five so much we shared
We talked about mistakes we made and faded love affairs
Hot coffee at the greasy spoon and warm good morning smiles
She took my hand and made my day worthwhile (bridge)
I walked her home that Sunday morning’near the edge of town
She said it feels so good to have a man like me around
Now that was twenty years ago ‘neath San Antonio skies
When that Texas lady took me by surprise (bridge)
Now I tell her “we were lookin’ for love and we’re the perfect lovers”
No more tears and broken hearts..no more fly-by night romance
She tells me I’m the love of her life and she’ll never have another
We took it slow ..now we know we’ll never need that second chance
