“I Looked Away”

She took my hand
Tried to make me understand
That she would always be there

I looked away
Then she ran away from me today
I’m such a lone, lonely man

Came as a surprise to me
She left me here in misery
Seemed like only yesterday
She made a vow
She’d never go away

She took my hand
Tried to make me understand
That she would always be there

I look away
Then she ran away from me today
I’m such a lone, lonely man

Seemed to me like such a sin
For me to love another man’s woman
But I guess I’ll keep on sinnin’
Lovin’ you
’Til my very last day, yeah, yeah

[break]

I looked away
Then she ran away from me today
I’m such a lone, lonely man
