It Just Dawned on Me
You were always there
For the last seven years
Sleeping in a bed
Resting your pretty little head
You started sleeping lighter
And lighter every night
You were already up making coffee
By the dawn's early light
Well, I was happy dreamin'
In our happy home
And I woke up
I was alone
It just dawned on me
You're gone
You're gone
An old flame caught your eye
And whispered in your ear
Songs of whiskey dreams
To spirit you away from here
Your mama and your daddy
Slept in a soft feather bed
I hope you wind up in the jailhouse
With a cement floor for your head
Cause I'll be happy dreamin'
In our happy home
I'll wake up
I'll be alone
It just dawned on me
You're gone
Thank God you're gone
For the last seven years
Sleeping in a bed
Resting your pretty little head
You started sleeping lighter
And lighter every night
You were already up making coffee
By the dawn's early light
Well, I was happy dreamin'
In our happy home
And I woke up
I was alone
It just dawned on me
You're gone
You're gone
An old flame caught your eye
And whispered in your ear
Songs of whiskey dreams
To spirit you away from here
Your mama and your daddy
Slept in a soft feather bed
I hope you wind up in the jailhouse
With a cement floor for your head
Cause I'll be happy dreamin'
In our happy home
I'll wake up
I'll be alone
It just dawned on me
You're gone
Thank God you're gone
