Reba McEntire - The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

She came in looking good and looking around
She's checking out every man in the room right now
Don't go telling her about right or wrong
She's been alone for way too long

Well, the heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lasting comfort in the arms of a lovers fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
The heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of a love in sight

She hears him say, hey, can I buy you a drink
And sees the pale white circle where he wears his ring
She knows she's dealing her a dangerous hand
The consequences of a one night stand

But the heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lasting comfort in the arms of a lovers fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
The heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of a love in sight

From somewhere deep inside, she tells him no
Before she starts to cry, she turns to go

Hunter, hunter

Oh, the heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lasting comfort in the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
Oh, the heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of a love in sight

Oh, the heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of a love in sight
