Guess she didn't like the way
that I passed the time of day
And I cannot rightly say
that I can blame her in any way for that
But she could have found some time
just to scribble me a line
to try and ease my troubled mind
instead of leaving town behind my back
in the evening i'll watch the sun go down
the morning will be pretty
but i won't be
I didn't treat her all that good
I didn't do the things I should
Because I didn't think I could
But if she came back now
I would at least be fair
Now some little time has passed
And my head is still downcast
And my health is failing fast
And I'm forced to say at last
how much I care
In the evening,
I'll watch the sun go down
The morning will be pretty,
but I won't be
Never had a job to call my own
To bring in money to keep my home
And now I feel as though some massive stone
Is breaking every aching bone in me
I've been wrong, now I know
But she didn't have to go
And deal me such a bitter blow
Oh my God, I want her so desperately
In the evening,
I'll watch the sun go down
The morning will be pretty,
but I won't be
Here I am
