I Wonder Why You Said Goodbye

I Wonder Why You Said Goodbye - Ernest Tubb

Your letter came this very day

And it wiped all my dreams away

I've read it o'er a thousand times

It's left me with a worried mind

I wonder why you said goodbye

And did you mean to make me cry

I guess until the day I die

That I will still be wondering why

I'd read the thought that we are through

And that you found somebody new

I love you now I always will

I'd rather die than say farewell

I wonder why you said goodbye

And did you mean to make me cry

I guess until the day I die

That I will still be wondering why

I hope and pray before my time

That you'll come back and say you're mine

Bring back the love you took away

And mend the heart you broke today

I wonder why you said goodbye

And did you mean to make me cry

I guess until the day I die

That I will still be wondering why
