She`s Leavin` (bonnie Please Don`t Go) — текст песни (Jim Ed Brown)

She`s leavin` she`s leavin` she`s on the ship now and leavin`
Standing by the gateway tossin` streamers over my way I find it kinda hard believin`
Deceivin` deceivin` my subtle game of deceivin`
Standing here and waving blowin` kisses and behavin`
Like it doesn`t matter much to see her leavin`

I don`t know what I don`t know who I don`t know where she`s goin` to
I only know she`s goin` out of my life
Across the sea a wavin` hands and Col`nel Billy`s farewell band
I watch the disappearin` face of my wife
And I`m doin` all I can to hide the sad confusion in my mind
And brace myself with every trick I know
And though my lips are beating time to the words of Auld Lang Syne
My voice keeps on defyin` cryin` Bonnie please don`t go

Oh that fool in me persuadin` me to hide the broken pieces of my dignity
When a simple reassuring word just to reach out and comfort her
Was all I had to say to keep her here with me
And I don`t know what I don`t know where I don`t know who she`s goin` to...
She`s leavin` she`s leavin`...
