Conway Twitty - The Feel Of Bein\' Gone lyrics

rate me

Early in the morning she'll be leaving<br />

To visit with her mother for a spell<br />

But I know that really ain't the reason<br />

'Cause I know what she's doing all too well.<br />

<br />

She says she don't know how long she's stayin'<br />

Since she ain't seen her mother for so long<br />

What she really means but isn't sayin'<br />

Is she means to get the feel of bein' gone.<br />

<br />

She would never up and leave me<br />

Unless she knew that it was really dead<br />

But she ain't got no way knowin'<br />

'Til she puts me and leavin' to the test.<br />

<br />

She's just got to know for certain<br />

What it's like to live away from me<br />

But I'm so afraid I'm gonna lose her<br />

When she gets the taste of being free.<br />

<br />

I know that I'd be wrong to try and stop her<br />

There's nothing I can do but play along<br />

And get used to the feel of bein' lonesome<br />

In case she likes the feel of being gone...
