I Married Her Just Because She Looks Like You

Its not the words You know I'll always love you It's not the words I wish that I could stay It's more the way your lips looked As you spoke them And how the moonlight fell upon your face I married her just because she looks like you And for every time you said no She says honey I'll be glad to And for every time you left me She says darling I'll be there It's not the words You'll get over me That made my dreams come true I married her just because she looks like you And if I had not searched for you I never would have found her And if I had not loved you I would never have known love It's not the words Please try to forget me That made my dreams come true I married her just because she looks like you And for every time you knocked me down She reaches out to help me And for every time you cursed me She says darling I love you It's not the words Time heals everything That made my dreams come true I married her just because she looks like you --- I Married Her Just Because She Looks Like You - Lyle Lovett
