Charlie Louvin - After Awhile Lyrics

You pretend you don't see you say just let things be

And perhaps she'll come back to stay

You tell friends you still care that is just as she's there

That you love her so much more each day

But after awhile the pain stops hurting after awhile the heart cries no more

After awhile the tears stop their falling things get better after awhile

[ piano ]

When she left you said go from to him then you'll know

Who really has more love to give

You told her she'd come home but it's weeks she's still gone

And you wonder how long you can live

But after awhile...

Things get better after awhile
