I've wished a thousand times I could see your face
I've wished a thousand times, my dear, that I could erase
All the harm I've brought to you, erase all my wrong
I've wished a thousand times, that I could come back home

I thought when I left you I would be alright
But sweetheart, I live in hell from morning until night
I feel so doggone lonesome, I hurt from day to day
I've wished a thousand times I hadn't gone away

I've wished a thousand times, my dear, I could see your face
I've wished a thousand times that I could erase
All thе harm I've brought to you, erase all my wrong
I'vе wished a thousand times, my dear, that I could come back home

I thought when I left you I would be alright
But sweetheart, I live in hell from morning until night
I feel so doggone lonesome, I hurt from day to day
I've wished a thousand times I hadn't gone away
