Lonesome, crying heartaches
That's human emotions
I never knew, lord
Till she went away
Begging, pleading, forgiveness
That's human emotions
Three's nothing as lonesome
As hearing her say
She don't mean to hurt me
She just wants her freedom
Revenge ain't worth having
When it comes so slow
We hurt her too much now
For her to get even
Even if leaving
Means no place to go
She packed up her suitcase
Along with the babies
But she left her paintings
They hang on the wall
It's her way of telling me
Just what I'll be missing
Missing her's something
I hate most of all
