The Best Years Of My Life |
| Thank goodness for the curtains that I draped around the windows in my room |
| They keep the sun from shinin' through so it won’t find me here in all my gloom |
| My eyes’re red and swollen from the tears that baby’s leavin' me as left |
| I haven’t got the heart to go out to face the world alone just yet |
| God knows I’m just as empty as the closet where he used to hang his clothes And |
| passin' by that mirror I see ten years of my life just come and go |
| The radio is playin' some old song that baby used to sing to me |
| And in between my heartbeats Lord I think about the way it used to be |
| I tied the best years of my life around his love |
| Passin' my world to his and gave my heart the cause |
| I believed him everything is sad I thought that how it was |
| I tied the best years of my life around his love |
| I crossed the bridge of mem’ry |
| Where the grass was green and his sweet dream was mine |
| But all about is over now he’s broken all those precious ties that bind |
| I tied the best years of my life… |
