Saw my woman by the water's edge While I was standing by the hedge She ran away when I looked away I wish she would've just stayed Thinkin' to myself, "What went bad?" I cherrished everything we ever had Why'd she leave me here all alone? My heart has sunk like a stone She walked out on me because of the way The way it went, why didn't it stay Now shes gone and I'm all alone I wanna stand here and turn to stone
