She took my hand
 And tried to make me understand
 That she would always be there

But I looked away
 And she ran away from me today
 I'm such a lonely man

It came as no surprise to me
 That she'd leave me in misery
 It seemed like only yesterday
 She made a vow that she'd never walk away

She took my hand
 And tried to make me understand
 That she would always be there

But I looked away
 And she ran away from me today
 I'm such a lonely man

And if it seemed a sin
 To love another man's woman, baby
 I guess I'll keep on sinning
 Loving her, Lord, till my very last day

But I looked away
 And she ran away from me today
 I'm such a lonely man
