(words & music by j. tillotson)
I cry myself to sleep each night
Wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
And the pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin
Since youre gone
It keeps right on ahurtin every minute of the day
Every hour youre away I feel so lonely
And I cant help it, I dont think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone
They say a man aint supposed to cry
But when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
The pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone
It keeps right on ahurtin every minute of the day
Every hour youre away I feel so lonely
And I cant help it, I dont think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone
Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone
