Loretta Lynn Album

I watched you leave
That's how I know you're gone
But this heart of mine
Keeps telling me I'm wrong.

I see your face
Before me every night
In this haunted house
When I turn off the light.

Sometimes I hear you
Walk across the floor
And my arms reach out
To hold you like before.

I live for all the things
We used to do
In this haunted house
I filled with love for you.

This haunted house
I'm living in is killing me
And the ghost of your love
Won't set me free.

Each morning finds me
Crying and alone
In this haunted house
We used to call our home.

Each morning finds me
Crying and alone
In this haunted house
We used to call our home...

Here I am a doing things I said I'd never do
But that's before my baby said we're through
It was on that tragic day the hurtin' got its start
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart.

I've become a fallen girl for the love of a man
The same old thing goes on and on it's more than I can stand
To him it just don't matter but it's tearing me apart
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart.

--- Instrumental ---

I spent my nights a crying while he was running round
My heart was the first place lonely found
I don't think I'll forget him I can't begin to start
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart.

I've become a fallen girl for the love of a man
The same old thing goes on and on it's more than I can stand
To him it just don't matter but it's tearing me apart
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart...

How I love to be around you
When the lonely night surrounds you
How I love to be alone with you.

How I love to have the power
To read your mind one hour
How I love to be alone with you.

Just to be with you one night
You and me alone
Kiss your lips and hold you tight
Have you for my own.

This would be a joy unending
Could be a real beginning
How I love to be alone with you.

--- Instrumental ---

How I'd love to be around you
When the lonely night surrounds you
How I love to be alone with you.

If I only knew for certain
I'd cut out all my flirtin'
How I love to be alone with you.

Just to be with you one night
You and me alone
Kiss your lips and hold you tight
Have you for my own.

This would be a joy unending
Could be a real beginning
How I love to be alone with you.

How I love to be alone with you.
How I love to be alone with you...

I live in the world, world of forgotten people
Who've loved and lost their hearts so many times
I'm here in the world world of forgotten people
Where every heart is aching just like mine.

Well, I've loved and I'd been loved but I had the reckless heart
And the many dreams I had are torn apart
Now I find out I was loved too late
I'm all alone alone in the world of broken heart.

I live in the world, world of forgotten people
Who've loved and lost their hearts so many times
I'm here in the world world of forgotten people
Where every heart is aching just like mine.

Well, I've loved and I'd been loved but I had the reckless heart
And the many dreams I had are torn apart
Now I find out I was loved too late
I'm all alone alone in the world of broken heart...

(Bob Wills - Lee Ross)

I may say that I don't care
Hold my head up in the air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
But when the day is through
My heartaches start anew
And that's when I miss you most of all.

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you.

--- Instrumental ---

No matter how much I pretend
I wish I had you back again
For nothing else means half as much as you
My world just seemed to die
The day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter how I cry.

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you...

You say that I'm no angel
Oh, I know it much too well
How can you look into my eyes
And ask me why I failed.

You know that I still love you
And I let you drag me down
How can you talk about me
When you've made me what I am.

You've made me what I am
But look who everybody blames
When you know you're the reason
I hang my head in shame.

Oh, you tell me to forget you
And to stop my hanging round
I'd be ashamed if I were you
You've made me what I am.

--- Instrumental ---

You never really loved me
But I found that out too late
I've tried to find the way to change
My love for you to hate.

You act like you don't know me
When there's someone else around
How can you hold your head up
When you've made me what I am.

You've made me what I am
But look who everybody blames
When you know you're the reason
I hang my head in shame.

Oh, you tell me to forget you
And to stop my hanging round
I'd be ashamed if I were you
You've made me what I am...

No, I'm not crying
It just looks that way
He thinks his leaving me
Will drive me mad
Silly boy, he's the smallest
Hurt I've had.

These ain't tears I'm standing in
It rains today
No I'm not crying
It just looks that way

No, I'm not crying
It just looks that way
I convince my heart I'm happy
And make believe everything I say

He thinks he left me lonesome
And hurtin' every day
Oh, but I'm not crying
It just looks that way.

--- Instrumental ---

No, I'm not crying
It just looks that way
I convince my heart I'm happy
And make believe everything I say

He thinks he left me lonesome
And hurtin' every day
Oh, but I'm not crying
It just looks that way.

Oh, but I'm not crying
It just looks that way...

I walked away from the wreck of our love affair
And no one knew how I was hurt because I lie
I walked away from the wreck but it broke my heart
And I'm off myself and broken inside.

And when I see you with her I still wanna scream
It's like a bad, bad dream that never seems to end
I walked away from the wreck of our love affair
But I'll never never be the same again.

--- Instrumental ---

I saw the danger ahead but I paid no mind
For it seemed such harmless fun at the start
Too fight the crowd, too much wine, too much playing round
Then came the crash and my world fell apart.

And when I see you with her I still wanna scream
It's like a bad, bad dream that never seems to end
I walked away from the wreck of our love affair
But I'll never never be the same again...

Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
How many other girls have been fooled by you
I suppose that the number is far from being small
But I'll bet that I'm the biggest fool of all.

If I had the chance I guess I'd do it all again
I'd go down that same old road even knowing at the end
You'd leave me when your heart hears a new love call
So I guess that I'm the biggest fool of all.

--- Instrumental ---

Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
How many other girls have been fooled by you
I suppose that the number is far from being small
But I'll bet that I'm the biggest fool of all.

If I had the chance I guess I'd do it all again
I'd go down that same old road even knowing at the end
You'd leave me when your heart hears a new love call
So I guess that I'm the biggest fool of all...

So long we've been married last burden we've carried
Though fate kept us humble and made our love true
But plans that we'd make up someone seems to break up
Oh darling what else can we do.

We may have to leave here to find piece of mind dear
Some place where we can live a life all our own
I know you love me and happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone.

--- Instrumental ---

They say you are leavin' that you are deceivin'
But you tell me they say the same about me
But we'll show them there on that loose talk and do harm
And hope that's the truth they will see.

We may have to leave here to find piece of mind dear
Some place where we can live a life all our own
I know you love me and happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone.

--- Instrumental ---

When I go out walkin' there's lots of loose talkin'
They say we're unhappy and we'll break apart
But darling, that's not true because I still love you
And I do with all of my heart.

We may have to leave here to find piece of mind dear
Some place where we can live a life all our own
I know you love me and happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone...

It wasn't very long ago
That he held me so close
But the little love he had has died for me
Who loved him most.

He left me for another
And didn't say goodbye
And if you're next to love him
Then you'll be next to cry.

Get set for a heartache
That's all I can say
Get set for a heartache's
On its way.

--- Instrumental ---

He'll make you think he loves you too
But you'll find it's not true
You'll learn that when you need him most
He'll be with someone new.

Your love will all be wasted
That's how it was with me
And soon heartaches will tell you
You're just his used to be.

Get set for a heartache
That's all I can say
Get set for a heartache's
On its way...
