Well, when I come home this morning,
It was still too dark to see
She's gone and left me
Where to I guess I'll never know
I only know her leave has brought pain and misery to my soul
Well, a note was on the pillow, she's gone without a doubt
I tried to read her writing, but I couldn't make it out
'Cause tears were falling too fast for me to even read
Nobody knows my sorrow, nobody knows my misery
My friends told me she'd leave me but I said they wasn't right
She gave no word of warning, she'd be leaving in the night
Can't understand her, what made my baby want to go?
I didn't hear her leaving, she didn't even close the door
When she'd come home this morning, I'd jump and shout with flee
She can't mean more to someone else
Than what she means to me, I love that woman
I got to have her all the time
I got to have her near me, to ease this misery on my mind
