She Didn't Even Know I Was Gone

She Didn't Even Know I Was Gone - The Louvin Brothers

O mister let me stay a while and talk with you

I know it's time to lock the door the dance is through

But maybe you can tell me how to take this pain

Or maybe this has happened once to you

Yesterday I owned the world the ocean and the shore

My baby said she'd never make me hurt anymore

Tonight we planned to mention our engagement at the dance

I wish we'd never come through that door

The music started playing and she walked away

My heart was crying loud but not a word could I say

She danced with him all night and they helped sing every song

She didn't even know I was gone

I waited at the door until the dance was through

I had to know for sure that what I'd seen was true

She cuddled in his arms and then they walked out of sight

She didn't even tell me goodnight

Yesterday I owned the world the ocean and the shore

My baby said she'd never make me hurt anymore

Tonight we planned to mention our engagement at the dance

I wish we'd never come through that door

The music started playing and she walked away

My heart was crying loud but not a word could I say

She danced with him all night and they helped sing every song

She didn't even know I was gone
