Oh, I woke up this morning
A long before the dawn
I stumbled to the kitchen
And put some coffee on
The house was deathly quiet
I knew something was wrong
Then suddenly it dawned on me
The cold gray light of gone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
When waking up and findin' out
She's never comin' home
And the note that said it's over
Lord, it chills me to the bone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
Oh, I sat and cried for hours
And I tried to clear my head
I even went and laid back down
On her side of the bed
Her perfume lingered on the sheets
Our love once laid upon
Her memory's destroying me
In the cold gray light of gone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
When waking up and findin' out
She's never comin' home
And the note that said it's over
Lord, it chills me to the bone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
When waking up and findin' out
She's never comin' home
And the note that said it's over
Lord, it chills me to the bone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
No, there's nothin' quite as lonely
As the cold gray light of gone
