Letting You Get Away
© Charles Kirkland 2009
Another long sleepless night
Still awake when the paper came
Thumbing through the pages
I ran across your name
On the front page of section C
Was a picture of you and him
The room started getting blurry
The lights were getting dim
Chorus
I see you put your past behind you
Moved on with your life
I always believed
You would make a good wife
I just called to wish you well
Say I'm going through hell
And I hate myself for letting you get away
How's your mom and dad
I hope that they're doing fine
I'd really like to see them
If I could only find the time
I know I'm rambling on
But I'm in some sort of trance
I was always hoping
I might get a second chance
Chorus
I see you put your past behind you
Moved on with your life
I always believed
You would make a good wife
I just called to wish you well
Say I'm going through hell
And I hate myself for letting you get away
Instrumental
Repeat chorus
