Bad love, she took a good shot Heartaches, she's had a whole lot of tough breaks And no one could blame her if she holds out She's a little worried to jump right in She ain't in a hurry to try again She's takin' time off from love but Chorus: Every night she cries just a little bit less She tries just a little bit more She's got every right to wait until her heart has healed And when she's ready, I'm here and I'm gonna hold her Inch by inch she gets a little closer to me, every night She's mad that she ever loved him She's through and she's had enough of him, but it's true He's gonna take some time gettin' over But I don't mind the waitin' because I know She's worth the time it's takin', our love will grow We're makin' it day by day and Chorus Chorus Every night Oh, she cries just a little, she tries just a little bit more Every night, every night
