Lyrics

Well I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Right out of my life and into his arms to stay You got tired of me but you were supposed to be back someday I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Well You said you needed time for a little peace of mind You'ld be back in a week or so Then a week turned into a month or two now it's been about a year ago And all the time I believed you still wanted me But he was working on you every day I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Well I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Right out of my life and into his arms to stay You got tired of me but you were supposed to be back someday I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Well I knew you was goin' but I never was a'knowin' that you ever want to go that far And now you've got a man with a gold wedding band Tellin' everyone how happy you are If I'd of ever known that you were never coming home I'd of never let you go that day I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Yeah I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way Right out of my life and into his arms to stay You got tired of me but you were supposed to be back someday I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way I knew you was going but you didn't have to go all the way
