Well I woke up today
To an empty bed
The spot beside me where you used to lay
Was empty as my head
And I found you in the closet
With a suitcase full of clothes
You said you'd had enough of our late nights
Gunna leave and head back home
But what could I say to you
When you've already made up your mind
Have these years that we've spend together been nothing
But waste of time?
[Chorus:]
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packing up her things
Leaving Dallas today in cloud of smoke
Can I tell her, what she means to me
But if I could have her back, then I'd give anything
So I pour myself some coffee
I stare at the wall
I wonder to myself, well did she love me at all?
Now I'm as clueless as can be
And I don't know where to turn
Lost in all directions, I guess there's no where I can run
[Chorus:]
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packing up her things
Leaving Dallas today, in a cloud of smoke
Can I tell her, what she means to me
But if I could have her back, then I'd give anything
So I wait by the telephone
I hope that it will ring
I'm hoping you've had a second thought
Or a dream of you and me
[Chorus:]
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packing up her things
Leaving Dallas today, in a cloud of smoke
Can I tell her, what she means to me
But if I could have her back,
Oh, if I could have her back
I'd give anything.
