"On The Other Hand"
(Paul Overstreet, Don Schlitz)

On one hand I count the reasons I could stay with you
And hold you close to me all night long
So many lovers' games I love to play with you
On that hand there's no reason why it's wrong

But on the other hand there's a golden band
To remind me of someone who would not understand
On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man
But the reason I must go is on the other hand

In your arms I feel the passions I thought have died
When I looked into your eyes I found myself
And when I first kissed your lips I felt so alive
I've got to hand it to you girl, you're something else

But on the other hand there's a golden band
To remind me of someone who would not understand
On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man
But the reason I must go is on the other hand

But on the other hand there's a golden band
To remind me of someone who would not understand
On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man
But the reason I must go is on the other hand

Yeah, the reason I must go is on the other hand
Yeah, the reason I must go is on the other hand

On the other hand there's a golden band
To remind me of someone who would not understand
On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man
But the reason I must go is on the other hand
