George Strait – Nobody in His Right Mind Would’ve Left Her Lyrics

I burn with desire each time my heart fans the fire
To that old flame that burns inside of me.
She cried when I left her, now I cry to forget her.
Oh, how foolish I was to ever want to leave.

[Chorus:]
‘Cause nobody in his right mind would’ve left her.
I had to be crazy to say goodbye.
Nobody in his right mind would’ve left her.
Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind.

I still carry her picture; I wish her well
With the new love I know she’s found by now.
Each night finds me dreamin’, each day I spend thinkin’
How much I wish she was still around.

[Chorus]

Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind.
