I Heard It All

We used to meet every Friday night

Down at the San Jose

Same room number, bottle of wine

Our little secret get away

One night I got there early

I checked in and turned down the bed

There was a couple next door and they were fighting

And I could hear every word they said

He told her, “she means nothing to me”

It was a cold hard twist of the knife

When he said my name and I realized

It was my man and he was talking to his wife

I heard it all through the wall

He was begging her to take him back

I heard it all through the wall

I never thought he'd do me like that

He had to know I was right next door

Waiting in room 43

When he asked her to forgive him

And promised he was through with me

Maybe he thought I'd just walk away

And there would be no price to pay

But I knocked on the door and I knocked some more

Because I had a few things to say

I heard it all through the wall

You were begging her to take you back

I heard it all through the wall

I never thought you'd do me like that

I told her he swore he loved me

He said your marriage was at an end

But it's a well known fact if you take him back

He did it once and he'll do it again

I heard it all through the wall

He was begging you to take him back

I heard it all through the wall

I never thought he'd do me like that

I heard it all through the wall

He was begging you to take him back

I heard it all through the wall

I never thought he'd do me like that I never thought he'd do me like that
