LORD I'M SO LONELY

HOW WILL I EVER FIND MY WAY


I LOOK OUT MY WINDOW


RAIN'S FALLING DOWN JUST LIKE THE TEARS ON MY FACE

IT FEELS LIKE THIS PAIN COULD LAST FOREVER


NOW THAT I KNOW SHE'S NOT COMIN BACK


SO MANY THINGS THAT I TRIED TO SAY

IT DIDN'T MATTER SHE WOULDN'T STAY


I SMELLED THE ROSES THE OTHER DAY


WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY

SHE HAD HER REASONS


SHE NEVER FELT THERE WAS A NEED TO EXPLAIN


AND SHE WON'T BE KNOCKIN'

AND SHE WON'T BE CALLIN ON THE PHONE


IT FEELS LIKE THIS PAIN COULD LAST FOREVER


NOW THAT I KNOW SHE'S NOT COMIN BACK

SO MANY THINGS THAT I TRIED TO SAY


IT DIDN'T MATTER SHE WOULDN'T STAY


I SMELLED THE ROSES THE OTHER DAY

WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY


I SMELLED THE ROSES THE OTHER DAY


WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY

SO MANY THINGS THAT I TRIED TO SAY


IT DIDN'T MATTER SHE WOULDN'T STAY


I SMELLED THE ROSES THE OTHER DAY

WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY


SO MANY THINGS THAT I TRIED TO SAY, DARLIN


IT DIDN'T MATTER SHE WOULDN'T STAY NO, NO, NO

I SMELLED THE ROSES THE OTHER DAY


WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY


I WOKE UP TO SMELL THEM ROSES

WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY
