I Hope You`ve Learned — текст песни (Ricky Skaggs)

I`ve been away for just a year
Have you forgotten me, my dear?
The judge said I must pay the cost
I never knew how much I`d lost

Until they sent me far away
Where each minute seems a day
But maybe someday I`ll be free
Will you be waiting there for me?

I`m in this cell because of you
The crime I did you drove me to
My jealous heart just could not stand
To see you with another man

Until they sent me far away
Where each minute seems a day
But maybe someday I`ll be free
Will you be waiting there for me?

I hope someday that you will learn
And brokenhearted you`ll return
But listen, darlin`, please don`t wait
For maybe then will be too late

Until they sent me far away
Where each minute seems a day
But maybe someday I`ll be free
Will you be waiting there for me?
