Well, last night I came home an' I knocked on my door, An' I called to my love as I oft had before. An' I knocked an' I knocked: no answer thee came. No kisses to greet me or voice call my name. An' I couldn't believe it was true, oh Lord. Couldn't believe it was true. An' my eyes filled with tears an' I must've aged in years, An' I couldn't believe it was true. Instrumental break. Well, the shock was so great, I am quiverin' yet. An' I'll try to forgive but I cannot forget. My heart breakin' loss is another man's gain. Her happiness, always, I hope will remain. An' I couldn't believe it was true, oh Lord. Couldn't believe it was true. An' my eyes filled with tears an' I must've aged in years, An' I couldn't believe it was true.
