I Couldn't Believe It Was True
Last night I come home, and I knocked on the door
I called to my love, as I oft had before
I knocked, and I knocked, but no answer they came
No kisses to greet me, no voice, called my name
I couldn't believe, it was true, oh, Lord
I couldn't believe it was true
My eyes filled with tears, I must have aged ten years
I couldn't believe it was true
I let myself in, and I walked to our bed
I found a note there, and the message, I read
The truth, like a bolt, from the blue in the dawn
My sweetheart had left me, my darling, had gone
I couldn't believe, it was true, oh, Lord
I couldn't believe it was true
My eyes filled with tears, I must have aged ten years
I couldn't believe it was true
The shock was so great, I am quivering yet
I'll tried to forgive, but I can not forget
My heartbreaking loss, is another man's gain
Her happiness, always, I hope, will remain
I couldn't believe it was true, oh, Lord
I couldn't believe it was true
My eyes filled with tears, I must have aged ten years
I couldn't believe it was true
I called to my love, as I oft had before
I knocked, and I knocked, but no answer they came
No kisses to greet me, no voice, called my name
I couldn't believe, it was true, oh, Lord
I couldn't believe it was true
My eyes filled with tears, I must have aged ten years
I couldn't believe it was true
I let myself in, and I walked to our bed
I found a note there, and the message, I read
The truth, like a bolt, from the blue in the dawn
My sweetheart had left me, my darling, had gone
I couldn't believe, it was true, oh, Lord
I couldn't believe it was true
My eyes filled with tears, I must have aged ten years
I couldn't believe it was true
The shock was so great, I am quivering yet
I'll tried to forgive, but I can not forget
My heartbreaking loss, is another man's gain
Her happiness, always, I hope, will remain
I couldn't believe it was true, oh, Lord
I couldn't believe it was true
My eyes filled with tears, I must have aged ten years
I couldn't believe it was true
