I Looked Away

(альбом: Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs - 1970)

She took my hand
And tried to make me understand
That she would always be there

But I looked away
And she ran away from me today
I'm such a lonely man

It came as no surprise to me
That she'd leave me in misery, yeah
It seemed like only yesterday
She made a vow that she'd never walk away

She took my hand
To try to make me understand
That she would always be there

But I looked away
And she ran away from me today
I'm such a lonely man

And if it seemed a sin
To love another man's woman, baby
I guess I'll keep on sinning
Loving her, Lord, to my very last day

But I looked away
And she ran away from me today
I'm such a lonely man
