Holdin` Court Lyrics

Holdin` Court lyrics

Our love was as strong as love could be

But then someone got between you and me

People said we were finished when you walked out the door

I was so worried, I walked a hole in the floor



But I'm holdin' court tonight

Surprising all my friends

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby

'Cause I got you back again



All the one nighters that I had to do

I didn't think about what that would do to you

Some smart guy thought that while I was away

That he could just slip right in and take my place



But I'm holdin' court tonight

Surprising all my friends

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby

'Cause I got you back again



I called you from [Incomprehensible] to talk about yesterday

Nothing about I love you, there's just some bills to pay

You said time and loneliness had made you weak

It's hard not to listen when temptation speaks



We talked about it

And we set it straight

And now I'm on the town, baby

We're gonna celebrate



I'm holdin' court tonight

Surprising all my friends

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby

'Cause I got you back again



I'm holdin' court tonight

I'm holdin' court tonight

I got my baby back again

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby
