I’m Only Losin’ Everything I Threw Away
Mornin' lonely mornin' I feel so lonesome raindrops fallin' down
Leavin' Lord she's leavin' she bought a oneway Greyhound ticket from this town
Takin' she's been takin' she's been a long time takin' all of my hurtin' away
Losin' I'm only losin' I'm only losin' everything I threw away
I'm only losin' someone special who never made me cry
That warm and tender someone who's lips just said goodbye
I'm only losin' my tomorrow my today and yesterday
I'm only losin' everything I threw away
Beggin' Lord I'm beggin' askin' her please take me back again
Cryin' Lord now she's cryin' but with tearfull eyes she slowly shakes her head
Footsteps her fading footstep walking out the door now I'm alone
Dawnin' for me it's dawnin' this time she's not foolin' she's gone
I'm only losin' someone special who never made me cry
That warm and tender someone who's lips just said goodbye
I'm only losin' my tomorrow my today and yesterday
I'm only losin' everything I threw away
I'm only losin' everything I threw away
