I could say I wish you good things
And that your days are long and bright
And to stop and soak with the green grass
When the Sun pours down her light

But it’s hard to wish you well, dear
From all the hell you made me know
And all the nights I walked alone, love
Wond’rin’ which way I should go

Though my friends they tried to warn me
I just assumed they did not know
And although you never made me happy
You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go

They say that love is strange and long, dear
But you and I just never got it right
I’d say it’s best if we both part, love
We both can get more out of life

So, for a time I’ll be unhappy
Full of sorrow, full of woe
Ah, but nothing ever lasts forever
Not even stone cold winter’s snow

Now I don’t mean to disappoint you,
But our weekends out were just for show
And until the day you come back and find me,
You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go

Now I’m not tryin’ to disappoint you,
But all you’ve caused was pain and strife
And then you’d rarely talk about me
When you’d take off for the night

So, for a time I’ll be unhappy
Full of sorrow, full of woe
And until the day you come back and find me,
You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go

Though life with you is now behind me,
You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go
