But the hurt was showing
 When she looked at me that way
 I had to stay
 I knew I had to get to know her name

 The town was weary
 She was to marry
 Someone planned years ago
 Her eyes said no
 I knew I had to get to know her name

 And when I got her all alone
 She told me through the tears
 That she didn't really loved him
 But he'd waited for so many years
 She said she couldn't break his heart
 She'd rather live with hers
 And though I told her she should leave with me
 She just could not believe with me

 Should've kept on goin'
 Better that than knowin'
 That he made her his wife
 He took her life
 You know I didn't even know her name
 You know I didn't even know her name
