I Tried to Leave You - Live

I tried to leave you

I will not deny

I closed the book on us
Least 100 times
Now I wake up each and every morning by your side

The years go by

You lose your pride
Your little baby's crying now
So you do not go outside
And all your work, it's right here
Right before your eyes

Mr. Bob Metzger on the electric guitar and steel guitar

You tried to leave me
So don't deny it
You closed the book, you closed the book
You closed the book on us
At least 100 times
But you still wake up every morning
Right by my side

Miss Perla Batalla, vocalist

Mr. Tom McMorran on the keyboards

Mr. Bobby Furgo on the violin

Years go by
Years and years and years and years go by
And I lost my pride
So my baby's crying
My little baby's crying
My baby's crying
So I do not go outside
And all my work
Is right before my eyes

Miss Julie Christensen, vocalist

Mr. Steve Zirkel on the bass

Goodnight, my darling

I hope you're satisfied
The bed is kind of narrow
But my arms, my arms
My arms are open wide
And here's a man and he's still working
Working for your smile
