The first night I should've left you before I shut my eyes I prayed to God I'd wake up somewhere else And when the morning came to find me You were sleeping there beside me I wondered if this nightmare ever ends The door was left wide open And the neighbors, they were smoking In the afternoon to pa** away the time And you looked at me so cold And said 'this house is not my home' I wish you'd knew how true that felt most nights Is it bitterness or sympathy? That keeps you standing here with me I'm not sure how much more I can take 'Cause I have sacrificed my peace of mind To sit here with you wasting time Now I think I'd like to walk away I was standing in Ohio on the 28th of March With the guitar in a suitcase in my hands And when the wind had stole my cap Lord, all I could do is laugh Thank the stars I'm still a drinking man Is it bitterness or sympathy? That keeps you standing here with me I'm not sure how much more I can take 'Cause I have sacrificed my peace of mind To sit here with you wasting time Now I think I'd like to walk away I was walking in a graveyard where no one that I know rests Thinking maybe I could clear my head And on the cemetery breeze I heard a song about belief Some with a thunder I can't understand Is it bitterness or sympathy? That keeps you standing here with me I'm not sure how much more I can take 'Cause I have sacrificed my peace of mind To sit here with you wasting time Now I think I'd like to walk away
