I wrote this song after
overhearing a phone conversation...
Looking Back From
the Cheating Side
Thirty-some
years old, two kids,
And a lifetime of love left to go.
A nice house and car to drive,
And a husband that loves you so.
When you were younger,
You could turn their heads,
And melt their hearts in two.
You promised your forever,
But now you’re yearning,
For the fire of a love that’s new.
[Chorus]
It’s a fine line you’re crossing,
And from where you’re standing it may not seem that
wide.
But baby you’re standing on top of the continental
divide.
You can spend the rest of your life trying to hide ,
The sins you’ve committed, looking back from the
cheating side,
While looking back from the cheating side.
It was innocent at first, until,
He looked deep into your eyes.
When you walked into his world,
You sank into a world of lies.
Does the thrill of the moment,
Make up for the pain,
And endless heartaches,
In the eyes of your children,
As they watch you leaving,
Or the man whose heart you’ll break?
[Chorus]
It’s a fine line you’re crossing,
And from where you’re standing it may not seem that
wide.
But baby you’re standing on top of the continental
divide.
You can spend the rest of your life trying to hide ,
The sins you’ve committed, looking back from the
cheating side,
While looking back from the cheating side.
