SHE EVEN WOKE ME UP TO SAY GOODBYE

(Mickey Newbury - Doug Gilmore)

« © '69 Acuff-Rose Music »

Morning's come and Lord my mind is aching

The sunshine's standing quietly 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 ain't the first time that I've seen the pity there in their eyes

Oh they could never understand it's her sorrow it's not a man

And no matter what they say we know she tried

Baby has packed her soft things and and she's left me

But I know she didn't mean 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

It's not her heart Lord but it's her mind...
