Is That a Tear

Last thing I expected was to get her call tonight

'Cause the last thing that I heard from her was she found Mr. Right

But when I came home this evenin' there it was on my machine

And I'm just wonderin' what the Hell it means

Said she's sorry, that she missed me

And she's been doin' fine

I've run it back and heard her say

Those words a hundred times

Somethin' makes me wonder

Is she happy with her choice

Or is that a tear I hear in her voice?

First time that I listened

I thought, boy, she's got some nerve

But the second time I heard it

I heard more than just her words

Am I just wishful thinkin'

Or did her voice really crack?

I'll never know if I don't call her back

Said she's sorry, that she missed me

And she's been doin' fine

I've run it back and heard her say

Those words a hundred times

But somethin' makes me wonder

Is she happy with her choice

Or is that a tear I hear in her voice?

Oh, is that a tear

Lord, is that a tear I hear in her voice
