I stayed away so long Jo
|
don't think that I could come back
|
You're doin' so well without me girl
|
you'd laugh if you'd know'd where I'm at
|
|
You knew me when it was all my world
|
Somehow it's all passed me by
|
But don't let on to my friends Jo dear
|
that things ain't turned out as planned
|
|
You bore my child then I left you aside
|
I don't expect you to forgive
|
But Jo I can say in a funny old way
|
I was sure that I had it made
|
|
I still possess a photograph
|
my memory to refresh
|
But fade it may Jo I can say
|
I was sure that I had it made
|
|
You bore my child then I left you aside
|
I don't expect you to forgive
|
But now I'm not so young and I'm so afraid
|
to sleep alone for the rest of my days
