The only thing she left was a tear stained letter
Said it's too late to try and make things better
Guess she's good as gone
I left her lonely too long

She held on waiting on me to change
But any kind of fool could've found a way
To say I did you wrong
I left you lonely too long

And I should've saw it coming from a mile away
But I was just in time to watch her tail lights fade
I'd give anything if she'd turn that car around and just come back home
But it's sure looking like she won't
I left her lonely too long, lonely too long

I should've thought about her instead of myself
Put her love first before anything else
That's where she belonged
But I left her lonely too long

And I should've saw it coming from a mile away
But I was just in time to watch her tail lights fade
I'd give anything if she'd turn that car around and just come back home
But it's sure looking like she won't
I left her lonely too long, lonely too long

And I should've saw it coming from a mile away
But I was just in time to watch her tail lights fade
I'd give anything if she'd turn that car around and just come back home
But it's sure looking like she won't
I left her lonely too long, lonely too long
Lonely too long, lonely too long
