LYRICS

Now you’ve been gone so long
I’ve been so blue
I’m lyin here cryin and thinkin of you
My heart has been broken and twisted with pain
For someone else holds you
And whispers your name

The day you left me and said
We were through
I begged and I cried and I pleaded with you
My whole world seems dark
And now I live in shame
For someone else calls you
And whispers your name

The north wind is blowin
And Lord its so cold
Your love has destroyed me and tortured my soul
Life ain’t worth livin since I lost the game
For someone else holds you
And whispers your name

Now my heart is weary
My race is almost run
I’ve tried to forget you
But you’re still the only one
My heart has been broken and twisted with pain
I wish you’d come callin
And whisper my name
