[00:09.12]I heard the front door closing softly,
[00:13.43]
[00:18.05]as I wakened from my sleep;
[00:23.60]
[00:26.60]With the last touch of her kips, Lord,
[00:33.40]
[00:36.04]like a whisper on my cheek;
[00:40.30]
[00:43.87]And I cursed the sun for risin',
[00:49.30]
[00:53.26]'cause the worst, Lord, was yet to come;
[00:57.76]
[01:01.46]'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
[01:06.08]
[01:09.37]but, come sundown, she'll be gone.
[01:14.18]
[01:17.34]See the lipstick on the pillow
[01:19.40]
[01:25.20]that I placed beneath her head;
[01:30.69]
[01:33.44]And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord,
[01:39.44]
[01:42.54]where she lay upon my bed;
[01:46.65]
[01:50.21]And it hurts to know it's over,
[01:56.64]
[01:58.32]for the hurt, Lord, has just begun.
[02:03.63]
[02:06.07]'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
[02:12.31]
[02:14.93]but, come sundown, she'll be gone.
