LYRICS

No I’m not living I only exist
How much longer can I go on like this

You broke my heart and tortured my mind
I’ve lost you darling you’re long gone this time

My home is broken you wrecked my young life
You left me here alone to cry

These tears that are flowing will soon dry away
And some day darling I know you will pay

No I’m not living I only exist
How much longer can I go on like this

You broke my heart and tortured my mind
I’ve lost you darling you’re long gone this time

I knew you were no good right from the start
My friends all told me you’d break my heart

When your roaming and rambling days are through
You’ll pray for a love like I had for you

No I’m not living I only exist
How much longer can I go on like this

You broke my heart and tortured my mind
I’ve lost you darling you’re long gone this time

I’ve lost you darling you’re long gone this time
