|
The coat she wore still lies upon the bed |
|
The book I gave her that she never read |
|
She left without a single word to say |
|
Her father didn't like me anyway. |
|
She always wanted more than I could give |
|
She wasn't happy with the way we lived |
|
I didn't feel like asking her to stay |
|
Her father didn't like me anyway. |
|
Daddy never knew just what she'd seen in me |
|
Daddy didn't like my hair |
|
Perhaps if we had talked, he'd have seen something in me |
|
But Daddy didn't really care. |
|
To tell the truth I didn't have the nerve |
|
I know I only got what I deserved |
|
So now she's taken leave of me today |
|
Her father didn't like me anyway. |
|
Daddy never knew just what she'd seen in me |
|
Daddy didn't like my hair |
|
Perhaps if we had talked, he'd have seen something in me |
|
But Daddy didn't really care. |
|
The coat she wore still lies upon the bed |
|
The book I gave her that she never read |
|
She left without a single word to say |
|
Her father didn't like me anyway. |
