I get that itch for leaving There sure is a lot to see When I hear those big jets winding It makes me wanna leave I've never been to Paris Still never been to Maine I sure like California I could leave on the next plane
When I hear your voice a-call me Begging me to stay I'm torn and I'm tattered The sky is turned to gray My mind is numb and I haven't slept And my heart it aches for you If I stay here, my darling I don't know if I'll make it through
On the 18th day of December That's when I did go I packed my bags and I headed south I walked right out the door All alone in that dwelling place As cold as cold could be Not a soul inside that evening Just this feeling of relief
She's as fine as the evening sun That, I would not lie But I would not give my life to her No matter how hard I tried I may never find another I've come to realize But you can't hold back a roaming man Darling, I apologize
I broke her heart so suddenly Like a thief in the night But as sure as the morning comes I know what I did was right I did not mean to lead you on For that you won't forget This heart of mine is breaking And I'm filled with regret
It breaks my heart to know, dear I couldn't ever say goodbye But I know, my darling You'd be unhappy as my bride You'll surely find another man Who will take you as his wife And I'll be alone, my dear Living the bachelor's lifeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
