In the pale neon light of a saturday night You'll see him walk up to the bar He'll size up the ladies, the 'no's and the maybe's Till he finds one who'll let down her guard Then the band on his hand gets slipped off again And his disarming charm starts to work And with a drink and a lie, in the blink of an eye Something amazing occurs
He's suddenly single Instantly free And for three or four hours He's the man of her dreams He acts like there's no one waiting at home He'll be suddenly single Till he's suddenly gone
He sneaks through the door at a quarter to four But tonight there's no one to wake The note that she wrote him says, I've given up hoping I'd be able to change you someday. He sits on the bed, shaking head A man in complete disbelief He knows what he's lost Oh, but he never thought Someday, he'd really be
Suddenly single Instantly free And for the rest of his life She'll haunt his dreams And now there'll be no one waiting at home He's suddenly single 'cause she's suddenly gone He's suddenly single 'cause she's suddenly gone
