Patty Loveless Lyrics
"Over My Shoulder"

(Roger Murrah - Marcus Hummon)

Over my shoulder my heart expects to see you running after me
Calling out my name
Over my shoulder there's a coat you used to wrap me in to keep me warm
To keep me near
Though the clouds still hang around me like my stormy love for you
The rain is falling softer now, the sun is breaking though.

Over my shoulder I see a rainbow
And is it heaven's way of saying I can let you go
And tomorrow morning I'll be one day older
And you will be a memory
One last look over my shoulder.

Over my shoulder there's some words I said I wish I hold back again
But it's out of my hands over my shoulders
Oh, the shadow of our love keeps reaching out for me
It won't set me free
With every step I ask myself which way should I go
It's hard to find your way across a bridge that's burning slow

Over my shoulder I see a rainbow
And is it heaven's way of saying I can let you go
And tomorrow morning I'll be one day older
And you will be a memory
One last look over my shoulder.

Instrumental ---

And tomorrow morning I'll be one day older
And you will be a memory
One last look over my shoulder.

Over my shoulder...
