She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye

(album: Story Teller - 1972)

Morning's come and, Lord, my mind is aching, yes, it is
The sunshine standing quietly at my door
Just to light the dawn my heart is silently breaking
But my tears go tumbling down to the floor

Once again the whole town will be talking
Lord, I can see the pity that's in their eyes
They could never, never understand
It's her sorrow, it's not another man
And no matter what they say, baby, hm, I know you tried

I see you packing your things and I know you gonna leave me
But Lord, I know, and you know, you don't wanna make me cry
Lord, it's not her heart, it's her mind
She didn't mean to be unkind
She even woke me up to say bye-bye, bye-bye

It's not her heart, Lord, it's her mind
She didn't mean to be unkind
She even woke me up to say bye-bye, bye-bye
