Connie Smith - The Hinges on the Door

Well, I feel just like an E cord on an old flat top guitar
I've been used 'til I can't stand it anymore
You've been in and out of here so much to find you someone new
That you're wearin' out the hinges on the door

When I met you I'd have turned around and walked the other way
If I'd known how many heartaches were in store
Seems like all I do is hang around and watch you come and go
While you're wearin' out the hinges on the door

Well, I don't know why I take it, but I do
Well, I guess it's 'cause I'm so in love with you
Each time that you find someone new, you turn and walk away
Then just like the tide, you slip right back to shore
Oh, my darling, if you love me, stick around and let me know
And stop wearin' out the hinges on the door

Well, I don't know why I take it, but I do
Well, I guess it's 'cause I'm so in love with you
Each time that you find someone new, you turn and walk away
Then just like the tide, you slip right back to shore
Oh, my darling, if you love me, stick around and let me know
And stop wearin' out the hinges on the door
