I'm Only Losin' Everything I Threw Away

(album: Amazing Love - 1973)

Morning lonely morning
I feel so lonesome raindrops falling down
Leaving Lord she's leaving
She bought a one-way Greyhound ticket from this town

Taking she's been taking
She's been a long time taking all of my hurting away
Losing I'm only losing
I'm only losing everything I threw away

I'm only losing someone special who never made me cry
That warm and tender someone who's lips just said goodbye
I'm only losing my tomorrow my today and yesterday
I'm only losing everything I threw away

Begging Lord I'm begging
Asking her please take me back again
Crying Lord now she's crying
But with tearfull eyes she slowly shakes her head

Footsteps her fading footstep
Walking out the door now I'm alone
Dawning for me it's dawning
This time she's not fooling she's gone

I'm only losing someone special who never made me cry
That warm and tender someone who's lips just said goodbye
I'm only losing my tomorrow my today and yesterday
I'm only losing everything I threw away
I'm only losing everything I threw away
