She even woke me up to say goodbye lyrics

Well the morning's come

And Lord my mind is aching

The sunshine's quietly standing at my door

Just like the dawn

My heart is silently breaking

With my tears it goes tumbling to the floor

Once again the whole town will be talking

It's more I've seen the pity in their eyes

They could never understand

It's her sorrow not a man

No matter what they say I know she tried

Baby's packed her soft things

And oh she's left me

I know she never meant to make me cry

It's not her heart Lord

It's her mind she didn't mean to be unkind

Why she even woke me up to say goodbye
