Lyrics
You wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you
And you asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something I've been waiting for to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
I didn't know God made honky-tonk angels
And I might've known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
Tú sabes que te quiero y da envidia
Y sabes que yo sufro por tu amor
Pero tú sigues viviendo en las cantinas
Y yo me estoy muriendo de dolor
I didn't know God made honky-tonk angels
And I might've known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
