What I See in Her Is You B.J. Thomas

Pain has no memory
That's a well known fact
If it did we wouldn't waste precious time
Looking back

And I never seem to know
But she's learning fast
What it's like to be holding a fool
Who loves in the past

And when she asks me what it is I see in her
I say the things she needs me to
I say I love the way she holds me in her heart
That part is true
But what I see in her in you

Maybe there'll come a day
I won't need to compare
And I'll look in her questioning eyes
And you won't be there

And when she asks me what it is I see in her
I say whatever gets me through
And I go right on defending
What I know inside my soul
Just isn't true
'Cause what I see in her in you
