Cloud of Dust
Woke up in an empty bed
Ceiling fan spins round
Another day with you gone
Its so lonesome in this town
How long since you left
Has my pen been completely dry
So I pour myself a drink
And try to ease my worried mind
Whiskey in my hand
Trouble in my mind
My baby's gone and its for good this time
When she left she didn't leave a note
A cloud of dust, boy, was all she wrote
Drove downtown past the bank
Stopped in that little place on third
Someone asked how you were
I just didn't have the words
So I looked in to my drink
Tried to find the words to say
But I didn't have the strength
To tell 'em you had gone away
Whiskey in my hand
Trouble in my mind
My baby's gone and its for good this time
When she left she didn't leave a note
A cloud of dust, boy, was all she wrote
Laying here in the night
Staring at the clock up on the wall
Will this heartache ever end
Will you even call
If you did what would I say
Would I just break down and cry?
I'd give anything to hear
You say something other than goodbye
Whiskey in my hand
Trouble in my mind
My baby's gone and its for good this time
When she left she didn't leave a note
A cloud of dust, boy, was all she wrote
Ceiling fan spins round
Another day with you gone
Its so lonesome in this town
How long since you left
Has my pen been completely dry
So I pour myself a drink
And try to ease my worried mind
Whiskey in my hand
Trouble in my mind
My baby's gone and its for good this time
When she left she didn't leave a note
A cloud of dust, boy, was all she wrote
Drove downtown past the bank
Stopped in that little place on third
Someone asked how you were
I just didn't have the words
So I looked in to my drink
Tried to find the words to say
But I didn't have the strength
To tell 'em you had gone away
Whiskey in my hand
Trouble in my mind
My baby's gone and its for good this time
When she left she didn't leave a note
A cloud of dust, boy, was all she wrote
Laying here in the night
Staring at the clock up on the wall
Will this heartache ever end
Will you even call
If you did what would I say
Would I just break down and cry?
I'd give anything to hear
You say something other than goodbye
Whiskey in my hand
Trouble in my mind
My baby's gone and its for good this time
When she left she didn't leave a note
A cloud of dust, boy, was all she wrote
