I laid a red rose On your front porch Wrote I love you On a note I rang the door bell And turned to go Baby when the curtains moved I couldn't believe the view
[Chorus]
I saw the light in your window tonight I saw two shadows holding each other tight I know the truth when I look in your eyes I saw the light in your window tonight
So take your cheatin' hands Off my red dress 'Cause I ain't wearin' This thing for you I see you clearly now And your lies too They say that love is blind Baby not this time
[Repeat chorus]
Why baby why, should I listen to you? I cried, baby, cried, now I'm walking out the door
