I've tried so hard to keep our home alive

But you don't even care that I'm around

You tell me that somehow our love has died

And you'd rather be set free than be tied down



All right I'll sign the papers even though you know I love you so

All right I'll sign the papers but oh how it hurts to see you go

[ steel - piano ]

I've laid awake at nights when you were gone

And thought of all the things that I could do

To try and make you happy when you come home

But the more I try the more you make me blue



All right I'll sign the papers...

But oh how it hurts to see you go
