The Partner Nobody Chose Songtext
von Guy Clark

She′s a melody in search of the words, I love you
She's a rose with no room to grow
She′s a light in the night with nowhere to shine
She's the partner that nobody chose

Oh, she's tried and she′s tried
And she′s tried to keep on tryin'
But everything she tried fell apart
Oh, she′s loved and she's loved
And she′d love to keep on lovin'
But every man she loved broke her heart

She′s a melody in search of the words, I love you
She's a rose with no room to grow
She's a light in the night with nowhere to shine
She′s a refuge where nobody goes


Oh, she′s fallen and stumbled
And stumbled and fallen
And no one picked her up when she fell
She's stood up with hopes up
That someone would show up
Someday you never can tell

She′s a melody in search of the words, I love you
She's a rose with with no room to grow
She′s a light in the night with nowhere to shine
She's the partner that nobody chose

She′s a melody in search of the words, I love you
She's a rose with no room to grow
She's a light in the night with nowhere to shine
She′s a refuge where nobody goes
Oh, she′s lonesome and nobody knows
