Paragraph Lyric
I heard the front door closing softly,
as I wakened from my sleep;
With the last touch of her kips, Lord,
like a whisper on my cheek;
And I cursed the sun for risin',
'cause the worst, Lord, was yet to come;
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

See the lipstick on the pillow
that I placed beneath her head;
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord,
where she lay upon my bed;
And it hurts to know it's over,
for the hurt, Lord, has just begun.
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.
I heard the front door closing softly,  as I wakened from my sleep;  With the last touch of her kips, Lord,  like a whisper on my cheek;  And I cursed the sun for risin',  'cause the worst, Lord, was yet to come;  'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',  but, come sundown, she'll be gone.    See the lipstick on the pillow  that I placed beneath her head;  And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord,  where she lay upon my bed;  And it hurts to know it's over,  for the hurt, Lord, has just begun.  'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',  but, come sundown, she'll be gone.
