By eric clapton and bobby whitlock
She took my hand
And tried to make me understand
That she would always be there,
But I looked away
And she ran away from me today;
Im such a lonely man.
It came as no surprise to me
That shed leave me in misery.
It seemed like only yesterday
She made a vow that shed never walk away.
First verse
And if it seemed a sin
To love another mans woman, baby,
I guess Ill keep on sinning
Loving her, lord, till my very last day.
But I looked away
And she ran away from me today;
Im such a lonely man.
