I pull into my driveway
While the day is slowly dying in the west
I look in that direction
To the setting sun and the one that loved me best
We cried and said goodbye
Seems like a million years ago or was it yesterday
She swore she'd always love
God, I wonder if she still feels that way
I did the right thing
I did the right thing
I went back to my wife
Straightened out my life
I did the right thing
I walk in to the house
And hear small voices singing, " Daddy's here"
The lady of the house puts down the beer she's drinking
She says, "Hello, dear"
While we make small talk
My mind takes a long walk back to someone else
And I close my eyes and repeat those little lies
I often tell myself
I did the right thing
I did the right thing
I went back to my wife
Straightened out my life
Lord, I did the right thing
My face is wet with teardrops
I fumble for my wrist watch, it's half past three
Once more I was dreaming of the woman
Who once said she'd die for me
But I did what was right
And it hurts me every night now that she's gone
And all my friends are proud
'Cause I gave her up to save my home
I did the right thing
Sure, I did the right thing
I went back to my wife
Straightened out my life
I did the right thing
I did the right thing
