You were always there For the last seven years Sleeping in a bed Resting your pretty little head You started sleeping lighter And lighter every night You were already up making coffee By the dawns early light Well I was happy dreamin In our happy home And I woke up I was alone It just dawned on me Youre gone Youre gone An old flame caught your eye And whispered in your ear Songs of whiskey dreams To spirit you away from here Your mama and your daddy Slept in a soft feather bed I hope you wind up in the jailhouse With a cement floor for your head Cause Ill be happy dreamin In our happy home Ill wake up Ill be alone It just dawned on me Youre gone Thank God youre gone
