Every Time I Do

Adkins Trace


Whenever I go out 
Anywhere in town 
I look for a crowd 
Where you're not hangin' 'round 
Say that I won't give 
Your memory any room 
But every time I do 

Just when I think I can 
Take another's hand 
Get on with my life 
Won't look back again 
Promise I won't keep 
Comparin' them to you 
But every time I do 

Every time I do, I wish I didn't 
Try to tell myself, but I just don't listen 
It's what he can't have back he never learns his lesson 
I say I'll forget her 
Oh, but I know better 
Don't I know by now we don't belong together 
Shouldn't get the blues when I think of you 
But every time I do 

When I'm drivin' home 
You'd think that I'd have learned 
Keep both hands on the wheel 
Don't even make that turn 
Swear that I won't go 
Down Maple Avenue 
But every time I do 

Every time I do, I wish I didn't 
Try to tell myself, but I just don't listen 
It's a fool who just goes on missin' 
What he can't have back he never learns his lesson 
I say I'll forget her 
Oh, but I know better 
Don't I know by now we don't belong together 
Shouldn't get the blues when I think of you 
But every time I do 

No, I Shouldn't get the blues when I think of you 
But every time I do
