Steve Earle We Gotta Stop Cheatin' Like This Lyrics

We both knew this was wrong from the start
But wild horses couldn't keep us apart
Even though I'm breaking her heart
And you're breaking his
I'll meet you in the usual place
I'll take a table in the back, just in case
There's something that we both gotta face
We gotta stop cheatin' like this

[Chorus:]
We gotta stop cheatin' like this
I gotta stop needing your kiss
We both know it's wrong We just can't go on
We gotta stop cheatin' like this

I could tell you I don't want you no more
But we got something, girl, that won't let us go
We tell ourselves it's love but we know
That's not what it is
I think it's time we said our goodbyes
'Cause I've already told her too many lies
And I don't want to see that look in her eyes
We gotta stop cheatin' like this

[Chorus]
