Is That A Tear

Last thing I expected was to get her call tonight
'Cause the last thing that I'd heard from her
Was she'd found Mr. Right
But when I came home this evening
There it was on my machine
Now I'm just wondering what the hell it means

Said she's sorry that she missed me
And she's been doing fine
Oh, I've run it back and heard her say
Those words a hundred times
But something makes me wonder
Is she happy with her choice
Or is that a tear I hear in her voice?

The 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 thinking
Or did her voice really cracked
I'll never know if I don't call her back

Said she's sorry, that she missed me
And she's been doing fine
Oh, I've run it back and heard her say
Those words a hundred times
But something 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
