With a trembling pen in hand,
I try the best I can,
To write all the reasons I can't stay.
And I hope she'll understand,
I can't leave her like a man,
Cause a man would never leave her this way.
A note of things I should have said,
Lays beside her sleeping head,
As I turn and make my way off in the night,
By the time the morning's breaking,
My heart will still be aching,
Every time I think of what I've left behind.
CHORUS:
Cause I don't wanna see me leaving in her eyes,
And I can't stand to watch her watch me make her cry,
And I don't know a right way I can do her wrong,
So I don't wanna be here in the morning,
When she wakes up, and finds me gone.
It hurts to know how much she'll hurt,
I've told myself things could be worse,
And I've convinced myself she's better off this way.
By the time she finds I'm gone,
I'll be a long, long way from home,
When she reads the note of things I couldn't say.
CHORUS
Lord, I don't wanna be here in the morning,
When she wakes up and finds me gone.
Oooooh.
