Her Next Move

[Verse 1]
Her way of gettin’ attention is packin' up with stuff
And pretendin' to leave
Well it might have worked for a while with her incandescent smile
But the truth is he never believed

[Verse 2]
She'll say she took a job in Denver, say she'll take their daughter across state lines
Somewhere she knew he'd love to live, wanting more than he could ever give
'Cause it's been years since he said "Goodbye"

[Chorus]
What once was guesswork now is clockwork
She never works without somethin' to prove
Under the circumstance, a cry of wolf don't stand a chance
But he wonders, When this town don't work what's her next move?

[Bridge]
These heartstrings she's tuggin' are startin' to break
He knows she's not leavin', at least not today
He's tired of these lives she's tryin' to portray
And done playin' the games that she loves to play

[Verse 3]
Next she'll say it's California, she got an offer in that golden promised land
She hopes this time he'll give in, ask her to stay and come home again
But he'll call her bluff and she'll fold this hand

[Chorus]
What once was guesswork now is clockwork
She never works without somethin' to prove
Under the circumstance, a cry of wolf don't stand a chance
But he wonders, When this town don't work ...

[Chorus]
What once was guesswork now is clockwork
She never works without somethin' to prove
Under the circumstance, a cry of wolf don't stand a chance
But he wonders, When this town don't work what's her next move?
